I am excited for more bw, but I'm most of all excited that there can be a tournament that I know will be run efficiently and professionally.
Riding the drama llama might be fun for a while, but there has been way too much of it recently in the foreign bw scene.

So pumped! Thank you to all the great people at TL who made this happen!

Has the general skill level on ICC dropped since 2009?


I got B on ICCup as Protoss in 2009. When I got B as Zerg in 2012, I was much better than I was in 2009. So to get to the same rank, I had to be better. In my experience, it has gotten harder to rank up on ICCup.


I don't think people got better or it's necessarily harder to rank up via personal abilities. There are less people at the C to B range now, so you will play a few people from C and up who are better or equal to around B. However, with less competition in general the overall skill top I would think is lower than before. I also think the main reason for not receiving a rank that you are aiming for now-a-days is purely because you can't find enough opponents to play to get the points required.
Also, everyone knows Protoss takes no skill to play, so it's very easy to get to B rank.
I don't need luck, luck is for noobs, good luck to you though

If they came back right now, they would lose anyway. You can't just come back and play for a few days, you need to practice for longer than that.

Edit: Unless they start playing RIGHT NOW and practice for 14 hours a day.

I know a guy who has been playing for months and months. He's playing 14 hours a day. Maybe he'll make it.


My best guess would be Sziky, but I really don't have any idea. Possibly one of the LRM guys like Baku or Trutactz.


I'm sure it's MISHIN!

ahaha loled hard

You have no heart! This makes my heart hurt.... and my brain.

At least a forth of D+/C- that I play are players who have hit anything from C+ to A in the past.

I have played this guy. I feel sorry for him.

I don't understand how you could play starcraft that much and still be completely unable to hit D+. That's at least 8 hours a day for well beyond a year. Mind-boggling.


yea I remember playing him almost a year ago, and 2 month ago I started to play bw again, saw mishin and he was at the same level... it's just sad, he should stop playing

I don't know how can anyone actually play that many games, but if the guy is having fun I don't see any reason for him to stop...
