I must say that I think a lot of posters in this thread and in general on TL don't really know what B- skill is. Strong B- players are pretty good and don't make stupid mistakes like walling improperly, but for players that just hit B- and stop, or stay around 6100-6300, they make mistakes like that all the time. Yes because since i didn't get higher than 6300 B- i'm not B- skill oviously. However if i had attained those extra 200-300 points, then i would be a strong B- and would never make mistakes because 300 points is such a difference. In theory i would make mistakes all the time because i didn't get past 6300 but someone with a slightly higher record would not make stupid mistakes.
Wouldn't it make sense that you stay at around "6100-6300" because you play against people who are 5xxx? Yet you get stomped by people who are high 6xxx?
TBH, I hate your sarcasm. It's really unnecessary in this case. In fact, it seems like he's arguing the exact same point you're talking about (LMAO). Since Combat-EX makes "mistakes like that", it's not unreasonable to say that he's around "6100-6300", or low B-. Therefore saying that he IS the rank that he claims to be. (Then again there was the whole abusing thing lul)
I don't really get it though, it seems like Combat didn't even know how to put a gateway above his forge for his wall-in. I'm only D+ (not even sure one could say that) and I never mess up my wall like he did in his games.

game 3 was me being a dumbass and thinking 'i dont wanna play on a Z favoured map' so i switched my build like 1/2 way T.T
game 4 was again, my fault, although i feel that it didn't really show skill as opposed to being caught off guard
and i would like to point out game 2, not only because i won, but because we both played very standard and i won VERY decisively.
now tell me, if 2 players play VERY standard, and i manage to win that badly, how is it to show that i'm not B- (if anything, at least C+)
i remember before this bo5 happened, everyone thought id get crushed and humiliated, which i would say, only happened in game 1
sure chill beat me in a bo5, but if chill beat another B- player in a bo5, would that mean that the guy that chill beat isn't B-? ....i hate to open your eyes to the fact that there is more then 1 B- player in the world..
so, in the end, even though i lost, i will still stand with my opinion on being a B- player
and finally, to prove this... because i didn't beat chill,
i will most likely be making a new account and streaming all my games to get to B- (probably B)
as of now, i have an account that is C+ with no abuse, and its not even late season.
thats enuff from me,
i didn't bother reading all 81 pages of this, only pages after 75... and it seems to me everyone thinks im C level...... i have a C+ account atm, so...that kinda speaks for itself Why has noone commented yet that combat streaming his way to B- (.. probably b? O_o) is a pretty cool thing to do, if he actualy managed to get to B/high B- without dodging hardcore that should kind of end the discussion of what his true skill lvl is.

guys, the commentary was really hilarious, lets look at the positives in this whole thing instead of bashing on combat over and over. yes, he abused. yes, he's bad at insults and makes excuses. but if he didn't agree to this and dodged like he usually does, we wouldn't have this awesome showmatch. so like i said before, props to combat for playing, he did better than i thought he would, even if he cheesed a lot of games. Very true, my life would have truely missed a lot without great quotes like " DECOLORZAREFIIIIIINE" and "are you for rela?"
ok, heres the deal.
I'm shocked. Chill destroyed combat on game 1 like combat said. In game 3, combat threw the game and looked really badly but ok let's give that game to the map. Game 4 combat got destroyed, i really think it wasn't just because he was caught off guard, he knew how many zlings were out becaused they attacked the cannon killing chill's expo, it was a mistake to keep just a cannon so thats combat fault too(my opinion).
Nevertheless, what's a real shocker is game 2(i don't like combat's cockyness, he's too full of himself) but he have a point. They played standard and chill got outmacroed. But being fair, day 9 pointed out that the map wasn't good for the 5 hatch hidra. So if combat gave the game away to chill because blue storm didn't fit his style or race, then so could've chill.
Lastly, i didn't like combat saying hes probably getting his acc up to B because he was destroyed by chill who is B- (i think that's his current rank). I think combat should stop saying "im B level im B-...." or whatever and just play, he wouldn't be as hated as he is if he just didn't spend that much time saying how good he is or how high his rank is.

Winning one game doesnt mean you are b-, how is this topic still up?? Let us forget about combatex, he is too popular for no reason

I lost a 35 minute game to combat-ex on gaia in which he played fine like 2 weeks ago.
I am b- level and got there playing korean hours at like ~74% winrate.
I did notice that his reaction times are terrible but his macro and unit composition was just fine.

Hey, this was an awesome watch. Day[9] has wonderful commentary. Props to the players.

Does anyone with media/youtube skills want to make some sort of clips out of Day[9]s audio commentary? I have just been listening to it and think it deserves so much props. There are so many gems in it that could even spawn "terrible terrible damage" type spoofs.

Well I don't think he can legitimately get to be B either but its still a good thing he wants to stream all his games

iirc you were the original ones who were on the combat bandwagon
change of mind lately?

Alright, since pianoblack said he's going to do it I will only post a teaser.
These are Gems from ONLY the first 6 minutes of the Chill vs Combat.Ex Day[9] cast.
File is 2.17 minutes.... a lot of penis talk.
mini day9 tribute
Edit: complete credit goes to Raithead. An hour ago I had no idea how to do this.

Really guys. Really.
Meh TL rly is immature, look at our user base.
Just try to stay above that yourself I guess

It doesn't help when you go "look at me, I'm above this!"
Oh my bad, you're implying that.

I meant a good way is to just be yourself and don't jump bandwagons stupidly. It really is hard to advise people what to do. (i.e. tell them not to jump the bandwagon)
I might make a guide thread soon, look out for it.
p.s.
Day[9] commentary is good never the less

be prepared
