Don't forget he destroyed the first (and only) PGT Tournament. Saying he was able to get up to B+ is almost an insult to Leg. In his prime he was easily able to reach A+ on PGT. | ||

You would be surprised how hard 1 is to do. Its something that you should aspire too, trying to improve it as much as you can. I doubt a single person in the TSL did 1 perfectly for the first 15mins of any game, in any of the 1000 games or so that were played. (zerg would be hard to quantify) Another bit of advice. Never be afraid to lose. Try and go out of your comfort zone whenever you can. Losing if utilized correctly is a lesson to be learned. I know its a good ego trip to win 80% of the time vs your friends or to be the best player in a clan or channel. But you aren't learning anything that can make yourself better. You should find a few people who are just a fraction better than you are, and play verse them. Over time without even noticing it, you will be stealing their skills and improving. At which time you then find newer people. This is a 'do as i say, not as i do' post. As i didn't like going out of my comfort zone vs zerg. Hence i sucked  It was so much easier slapping around terrans.Oh shit sorry about the bump. :S | ||

I know this was written during the PGT period, but I just wanted to point that out. It's fairly certain one can get to C if you can fufill all the requirements of these steps. | ||

I thought you were supposed to drone whore until a certain point and then make units (and obviously drone up your expos). It's been recently discussed that good zerg players make drones throughout the game. It takes practice to know when you can fit in a few extra drones without getting destroyed. | ||
