[Edited]
So I finally decided that instead of playing on East I would try some Iccup. I knew about the server for a long time, but was never a competitive player and was playing mostly 2/2 or 1/1 pubs.

And it's really cool, I've reached C- rank for the first time ever and feels great. I don't know if it's possible but I'm aiming for C. I hope to get it and keep it this season.

I started playing new maps besides my East noobish Python, LT, Luna. And I really like Othello and Destination. IMHO Destination is very hard for zvp.

I think that mogulus stream users motivated me and helped me a lot, I enjoy watching all Z's, especially ret and lzgamer.

I would be updating my blog when I get some fun games or if I'll feel like it.

You're at least B+ with a post like that.

On a totally unrelated topic, where can I watch PJ vs IDRA???
Today or yesterday they played I thought I saw timer on TL... yesterday or 2 days ago :S

Congrats! When I first reached the yellow ranks, I was sooooo happy.
It's only the beginning, and it will only get harder. But you will overcome it! Good luck ^_^

Bullshit.

Even a C- gamer can stop a 5 pool. Hell on destination even a D+ could.

I'm C right now and I would never lose to a 5 pool on dest.

Only an idiot would suggest 5 pooling on a 2 player map. It will be scouted 100% of the time unless your opponent is trash.
Being healthy, it has been said, really consists of having the same disease as everybody else.

Long rush distance + instant scouting.

That's going to work out just perfect.

Good job!, I like how you set your next goal at C. It's not much but its a much more realistic goal than A+ EZ 1 WEEK. Good luck on attempting to obtain it

Congradulations!

Getting into the C- rank and holding it is a definate sign that you are understanding and preforming most of your basic actions well.

The biggest thing for you to start learning is how to time your ling-> scourge -> hydra -> lurker -> 3 evos-> hive win a way that nullifies each stage of macro and tech that protoss achieves (of course this order can change!).

Congradulations. I recommend playing as much zvz as possible and avoiding sunkens to continue improving. Good mutalisk/zergling/scoruge micro is important in every matchup AND you'll learn how larva management works much quicker then overbuilding 50 drones in zvt/zvp!
