actually even eon is having trouble breaking 2000 so far with P and he's like 2300+ with Z?

Avi, I really like how you waste your precious time on me, whereas I'm not even talking about me, but other players, like Kame for example, who is relatively good and probably wins with you most times. If you still want to talk about me, then yes, I'm bad player on ladder, as well as I'm bad on tournaments. But that's because I did never copy paste specific builds from others. I play game for fun, and copy pasting does not provide it for me. I don't care about winnings, I have job I like and peacefull life apart from playing game. So stop wasting your time and searching for clappers like TT1.

So I take it you have absolutely no evidence of your claims that I am a maphacker, it was just a wild accusation that you decided to spew out in a public forum because your frail ego couldn't handle me posting your ladder stats? That is okay, I won't expect an apology despite how libelous it was. I would, however, recommend counting to ten the next time someone rustles your jimmies. Furthermore, I would absolutely encourage you to stop speculating on any matter related to bw, your track record thus far has been atrocious, and whether "kame wins with you" or not is completely irrelevant to the points I have been making throughout this thread-- however, I am thankful that you're finally honest about your own lack of ability. Evidently though, reading comprehension is not your strong suit, as my original post had a quote from you wherein you decide to lecture other people on the difficulties of playing terran at "A rank and above" -- a topic you're thoroughly unqualified to discuss as is evidenced by my posts.

I wonder if there's a group of people on earth with a higher ratio of ego to skill than foreign broodwar players

Ehh? Always felt like Kame is rather strong, don't think those screenshots do him justice.
On topic, hitting some 200 mmr below your main's with an off race on pure mechanics doesn't seem unreasonable, for any race. Although a week may not be enough indeed, and it should depend on the individual and their familiarity with other matchups.
That and there's plenty ways of maximizing your ladder mmr outside of gameplay, spx's comment is on point.

I'm a zerg player. To me, protoss is an easy 1a2a3a4a5a6a race. I'm sorry. Anyone with fast hands has potential to get S rank. Kwark_UK, slow as they come and still manages A...
I'm not shitting on Bonyth or Dewalt but I hit 9-0 S rank with Protoss last year. Few Kors in the match list.
Let's be honest. Protoss easiest race by far. I think EON can do it!

anddddd im done yep done im doneee

Jira your Zerg in 2020 is hard stuck at 2000, why would you ever post a screenshot of a lucky ladder streak you went on as protoss in 2019, when ladder was slightly more inflated. Especially when the sample pool of games was under 10, you likely had opponents auto leave cause of latency, giving you free points and you likely deleted 50 accounts before this because your record sucked like you always do

Protoss has a lower mechanical floor to it (gateways standard for all matchups, no mines/siege/stims/burrow/consume, can spam pylons for supply with 1 probe) but the mechanics are just a barrier to entry. This is a strategy game, having a sense of when to push, when to expand, and when to be fearful is what wins you the games assuming you're capable of doing the bare minimum mechanics to have units in the first place.
I have absolutely no doubts that anyone who is capable of managing a Terran or Zerg economy/base/army can do it with Protoss but that won't win you games, it just gives you a chance to win them with strategy. Whether Eon has a sense of the timings is what'll matter here. I have confidence that he'll pick them up though, he watches a lot of games and he's very good.

so much negativity in the last page and half... anyway currently Eon sits at 1950 with P. GL!

If anyone says something about you and they are in the general mmr vicinity do a GRUDGE MATCH!
(if it is not a mirror u get bonus points)

However, when you're in an inflated mmr-region and then on top of that decide to lie about your skill level to claim some sort of expertise on an area, it makes you look really bad. I feel obligated to keep your egos in check here, they appear to be a bit out of control. Furthermore, you should stop being bm on the ladder, no one cares about your whining.

Head-butting was referring to aggresive, cheesy playstyle, not being noob. Which suits style eon has been playing for years as zerg. Protoss has many options to play like that on every level, GL playing like that as a terran on A rank and above level. There you have to stick to good mechanics and timing attacks. That's because only viable cheesy aggresion you can make is 2 fact vs protoss or 2 rax mm / some 1 base tech vs zerg. Both are easily defendable nowadays by standard eco openings, when opponent has decent micro or/and understanding of game.

I was 2105 (iRk-Aalm, 158 games, 60% win ratio) with P and 1960 (iRk-AalmT, 68 games, 57% win ratio) with T at the END of last season. This does not mean my T never was at 2000 pts nor that my P was never close 2200 now does it?

Thanks. I think your play-style determines a lot which race you subjectively think is easier. I think my play-style suites T more than P, but i have so many years experience as P and switching race entirely is a lot of job and i'm getting old haha.
Anyways, it will be interesting to follow your progress eonzerg, GL!

So because you managed to get a lucky win streak to a career high 2105 in a BSL inflated season on Europe, you now consider yourself a 2100-2200 player? While being stuck at 2050 this season? A legitimate 2100-2200 player would be averaging 2150+, if not closer to 2200 -- which is far from where you're currently located, or ever have been located.
What I really want to know is why on earth are foreigners so delusional, and why do they have such inflated egos? Why do you need to lie about your MMR on a forum for brownie points? Just be honest about your skills, it's okay to have an opinion even if you're not S rank -- just don't try to add fake achievements to your bw resume while doing it.

Haha okay okay, i'm a 2050 (?) mmr protoss that managed to reach 1950 (?) mmr as terran within a season using legit builds which makes my "race swich" even more impressive. I want to thank you for boosting my ego <3

I usually eat my eggs over easy but yeah I'll scramble them sometimes when I break the yolk by mistake. Toss in some spring onions, butter, and there ya go: breakfast salvaged.

Over easy wins by far. For me, if it breaks, I still keep it over easy, would prefer the runny yolk.

In fairness 300ish MMR swings aren't unreasonable. On a good day I do okay at 2150 but when I'm so sleep deprived I can barely function (new baby keeps me up) I'm losing games with 3k bank at 1850. Just how bw goes sometimes.
Also are you active again? We should play like we did in the early 2000s MSN days.

Avi you need to let it go, or your face would grow old pretty soon, out of all this anger you spend on the computer game. Would be shame, because you have pretty and handsome face.

Funniest moment on todays stream:
Eontoss: dou you have burrow or just stream cheating? Oya [Zerg]: stream cheating+ zerg easy race. Protoss is hard, eh?
ROFLMAO, I nearly pissed my pants, thx oya
