Battle Report: I hit C- !

Replay: http://repdepot.net/replay.php?id=43363

It took much longer than I wanted for that last 100 points to C- but it finally came. The game was a TvP on Python. I spawn at 3 while he's up at 12. We both scout the wrong direction so I'm able to complete my wallin and delay my first marine.

My 2nd Factory goes down with perfect timing.

[image loading]

When my SCV gets to his base I notice a very oddly timed Nexus at his expo.

[image loading]

I saw latter that his build was an odd 2gate expo where he cut the first few goons for a Nexus. Of course this is exactly what you want to see when you are going for a Joyo rush. Even better, just before I moved out he took a premature 3rd off 4 goons.

[image loading]

The rush is revealed!

[image loading]

Meet little resistance to his nat, where he pulls probes. I know he has 2-3 goons behind me somewhere and more on top of the ramp.

[image loading]

And finally his last ditch effort to save his expo ends in beautiful blue tears.

[image loading]


All in all, a fairly boring build order win. Still, I'm very happy that I executed the build almost perfectly (forgot a supply depot after I had reached his base). Normally at 150apm, this game had me at 225 so another sign of improvement. Hopefully I'll have another one of these soon for some C+ or maybe even B- action!

Congrats yO. It's a bit unfortunate that the last game had to be so silly but who cares, you're in the yellow ranks now. =)

I wonder if I can still get C- T_T

I used to be B-

Congrats though! As ICCUP I heard is much more difficult now since very few foreigners play, and koreans are just as good as ever... so C- must be pretty sweet atm

Anyone still serious about laddering now just plays on Fish or Brain. Just maintaining 1000 alone on Fish is equivalent to C+.
