Today I Almost reached C- with 3770 points or something like that, just 2 games away. I sort of let the pressure get to me though and lost 2 other games because I was more eager to win than to play right and learn shit.

At this level, I realize now what I have to do to advance. I need to have a very solid strategy and being able to follow up and know my build really well. I felt that when I played a PvP. I did a dt rush, he blocked it well though, but I still ended up winning because I was more aggressive, asserted, and imposed my will on that choboling.

Then the other game I remember really well is another PvP. I felt uncertain with my actions and didn't have a clear game plan, continuously switching till the very last second. I lost that game, so ya I can't do that anymore at this level unfortunately. tomorrow I will probably reach C!

The best way to advance is to be good at bw.

The best way to be good at bw is not get mind fucked when playing and fuck up your build.

The best way not to get mind fucked when playing and fuck up your build is to play alot of games.

Therefore, the best way to advance is to mass game.

Logic ftw yo

Yes. It's as simple as that. Then you pat yourself on the back for a job well done.

The problem with rating the blog a 1 is that he takes pride in being the worst rated blogger on TL. He also benches 150 lbs, deadlifts 300, and squats 250, while only being 5'3". So watch the FUCK OUT.

Why would he give up? Say he has no way of getting B. So what? He aims for B, ends up getting C+ which is a rank above his high.He didn't achieve his goal, but he's a better player and hopefully he had fun playing SC.

So he could either play ICCUP aiming for B, or he could play ICCUP not aiming for anything. It makes zero difference. He's still playing ICCUP and he's still trying to achieve the best rank that he can

Just glanced through the blogs. No offense but there's a 0% chance you're going from D to B in 2 months. I remember last summer or whatever there was this dude StarN or whatever his name was who had exactly the same delusion as you. He never got past C or C- as far as I remember. If your highest rank is C, you're in for a huge surprise. The level of skill play at C is 39440980x smaller than B-. I've reached C+ myself, and even stable C+ players are much better than C players.

It's actually really easy to get to B-. This might sound like I'm bragging, but I picked up Zerg two weeks ago and I'm already B- on that account. At least I was B- until I got raped on Outsider a MILLION TIMES FUCKING HATE THAT MAP GOD DAMN WHAT THE HELL

I highly doubt your claims, good sir. Would you kindly provide us with some concrete evidence to back up your claims.
