Thanks for the update my status in the tournament, I'm glad I get to keep playing. @YouthSC: Sorry I've been MIA on setting up casting with you but I will be casting some Ro16 matches of my own so we should split the duties. I requested to cast Nagisama vs. uround, Essbee vs. IU, Aeghrur vs. floi, and Masss vs Eywa. Looking forward to seeing your cast! | ||

It is kind of lame for me to give a defense here but, I will do so again; Most active season I recently played (Jan/Feb) was 280+ games with 2365 final record. I don't think many more D+ person exists. I won 14-0 in the end of last season, won a few against people in DRTL (as in, part of my games for the tourney). I got 3rd place last time. I did hit C a year ago, this is true. If you guys think I am too good for this league, then I will leave. I just hope to give the spot to Gorg in my place if I were to be voted off or what not, since he missed his chance earlier in the tournament. If you have some sort of evidence or what not that would be good to see too, like rep analysis (would help me a lot I think ^^) OH and after re-reading other posts I feel like 4-10 is pretty weak atm >> | ||

Normally, D+ protoss in pvt have 90-110 eapm (because they don't need more to win terrans lol). In PvP the same i think, because of similar mechanic and units in match-ups. Babo and VirtUre both had 125-130 average eapm. Most of D+ terran players don't have such an incredible speed, don't need to tell about protoss. Also, you just said, that you have hit C rank in past, so you have much more experience than D+ players, so you can win every one in this tournament, so it is not even a competition anymore. I heard you want more numbers? Okay then! Babo vs magic[wok] 114 vs 108 PvT aeghur vs Babo 126 vs 131 ZvP (aeghur is suspiscious too lol) Last season babo have been playing worse, except match vs obelisco, but whatever. SO... I think players who have hit C- anywhen should not be allowed, do they? | ||

I think players who have hit C- anywhen should not be allowed, do they? My 'eapm' is 1a2a3a4a5a of the army accross the map in order to have constant vision of his own army movement. I saw it in a PvP rep once a long time ago and figured that it was a better idea than sedentary. I often do not reach 110 eapm on games that end quickly or do not have me in control of 5 control groups of units.. In the end eapm is also not everything; I lose to people with lower or equivalent eapm consistently and I only play at D rank.. Nagisama has 270 apm too, you know? Just because eapm says one thing it should not distract you from the poor macro and reaction time that are typical of D+ players like myself -_- TL;DR: Why would by.hero lose to flash? | ||

Good mechanics alone can take you to D+, especially as protoss, but if you're playing high D+ and C- terrans, who can actually control their units pretty well, you can't rely on micro and macro mechanics anymore, because if the terran reads the game well and have good timing attacks, he will beat you no matter how fast you are. At that point strategy is much more important. | ||

Stop the BS now. The smurfs have all been found. The ranks for next season will be revisited then, but not in the middle of a tournament. The next person to start another flame war, will be getting my boot. | ||

I'm travelling on Saturday 23rd and i won't be back until Friday so i need to postpone the game or to play it before. I may be able to play from Sunday to Wednesday but i don't know, but i won´t be able to play on Saturday since i will be in the train. The ideal thing would be playing the game before Saturday and I can whenever, i dont know if this is possible though. I have to whisper or PM my opponent and ask him, am I wrong? | ||

From Sunday to Wednesday means during my trip (Wednesday 24th) but its way better for me to play before, since im not sure i'll be able to play there cos i don't have a laptop. So Wednesday is perfect for me and I think will be free the whole day. I usually sleep from 3:00PM to 1:00AM CEST more or less but i can change that a little without problem, so you can choose the hour. Thanks and glhf | ||

I think I'll have to reschedule our match, of course it's really too early to tell when, let me know when you can play it and I'll see if I can fit it in. Sorry for the trouble. | ||
