I don't think it's too late. We could always use more players. We're (sb) low on numbers, but Takk could probably use a D+ in their ranks.

Race picking will be allowed, but if you pick to play a certain race on a given day, you must continue playing that race throughout the whole day. You will only be allowed to change your race for the next week. For the purposes of this league, random will not be allowed.

That muscle memory WILL come back, where it never existed in the first place of the D.

ok, fair enough. I can stand behind that lol.

Hi. I would really like to join.

I am a D rank Terran. The highest I ever got to was C, but that was 4 years ago so I doubt i'm even remotely decent now.

I will join any team or whatever you want me to do. I just want to play.

Thank you ))


yea, you can't play since you hit C to begin with once...

why not put him against the best of DRTL, like the best D+ player. If he wins, he's likely better and quite possibly C- but at least he gets a chance to show his skill and L_Master can judge based on that? If that's against the rules though, don't go for it lol.

edit: I realize that there is a chance of him 'faking a loss' lol but would be nice to have more TL members playing DRTL (I realize the whole C rank thing was discussed to death before but its 4 years later now).


Unfortunately this is the exact reason we got to where we were before. Moreover$.former C players can get back into shape quickly. Some former C guys are legit D when they start back, but if they start being any level of serious they quickly jump back ahead of everybody else.

hmm you make a fair point. Only counterargument that comes to mind is that C from several years back is nowhere C now so I don't see how someone can make that huge jump without a ton of commitment to it (why can't a D player do the same then?). Given, I'm sure it's quite possible to do but your tourney, your rules lol.


Because D players are clueless relative to C players. All C players need to do is to refresh their knowledge and retrain their mechanics. D players never had the mechanics or knowledge..

Maybe imagining this would help: It's like a semi proficient Arabic speaker who hasn't spoken Arabic in 4 years vs someone who has never learnt much Arabic before. Who will be better after 10 hours of learning and practicing Arabic?

Is this a trick question? :O Do you really need an answer for that one? I'm pretty sure it's the former lol.

it's okay BigFan. Thank you though.

I really want to play someone if anyone wants to play. Just for fun. Or maybe I can practice with some of the people in the tournaments. I just love playing the game I've PM'd but no takers.

np. You can add me on iccup: golden_phoenix. If I'm on, can always send me a message for a game. Aside from that, I found being able to make a game will get you a game rather quickly as long as its not after midnight est lol.
