Okie dokie..
Try looking in C:\Users\**YourUserName**\AppData\Local\Temp\BlizzardError\...
Individual error "Report.txt" files are stored there. They are sorted into folders by date. Id check out any error reports the client has generated, might point you in the right direction.
[edit] re: ports -- with remastered forwarding 6112 usually isnt necessary
Yeah, I actually saw that post and tried that as well. I even disabled the firewall to see if that would help, and 5 minutes later I got an email from microsoft that someone from Venezuela had access to my Microsoft account LOL.
Thanks anyway for your help! I'm gonna have to move the computer into the living room and try to connect it with TP cabel to see if that works.
Found a post on reddit saying that the system can crash if you have too many replays saved. I checked, and I had over 4.000 autosaved replays. Deleted all of them, and it's looking promising so far at least. Edit: wasnt that either lol
Flash played a bunch of 1v1s with Soma today. Starts 1 hour in, I think, maybe earlier that's why I didn't timestamp it, and they played at least 3 games. (He briefly watches some Best vs Rush in between games, so just skip that) https://vod.sooplive.co.kr/player/185077379

I've written this for the other thread, but the discussion on this derailed the OP, so imma post it here instead.
----- re: progamer mechanics during kespa and now
An interesting question is whether practice adds up over the years which leads to improvement, and how much this compares to the decay caused by physical factors.
In the realm of physical sports, it's pretty clear that there's a peak age, due to things like max VO2 in the blood and other physiological markers. For fps shooters, there's reflexes which peak at some young age. (there's probably studies on this somewhere)
I wonder what parallels exist to musicians. As far as I know musical ability is not considered to decay before musicians get quite old? Playing an instrument is a "mechanics-heavy" task. I'm sure everyone who played both BW and an instrument in a serious way would consider it to be far more mechanically demanding, compared to BW. Please correct me if that's not the case.
If someone has played the piano from age 14 to 18 for eight hours every day, they're probably pretty good at piano at age 18. What happens if the person plays for 20 more years, for four hours every day - at age 38, is the person better at the piano or worse, compared to age 18?
What are the physical factors relevant for BW and how are they affected by age?
