I would want to dodge pros. Why would I want to play a game where I absolutely know I have 0 chance of winning and I'm going to get ass-raped? I don't know about anyone else but that's not fun for me. I have much more fun playing games I have a chance of winning =P

That's exactly the opposite of what I'm doing. I was 18-2 now I'm like 25-13 with the same score... I've been calling out anyone with 100% winrate and getting my ass handed to me 2-0 because the most fun is playing people you know you shouldn't beat and having a gg. Beating kids you know you'll beat, you can do that any time in the season. But in the early season you can rank up, and play with progamers and find out their akas and be like zomg im so raped.

My replay vs ipxzerg because i dont know who he is but the hotkeys look familiar. Maybe romad or someone can check it.

He literally only wants to play koreans, which is a decision i think is quite respectable. Although he may ban ppl and it looks bm that way, but playing only koreans is pretty cool.

lol ok I guess I'll contribute something useful to this thread.

Don't know if I gotta posts the reps, but I will if necessary, he told me he was him, and I checked his hotkeys and it was. Not to mention he early pressure reaver put it in my butt just like he does in every game I see of him.

And Duran, I love getting rolled xD. Not to be arrogant but rolling other people is just boring, getting rolled by someone is more entertaining because you can go watch it and go omfg.... that kid was sick

Nooo, there's a difference. I don't enjoy playing people I *KNOW* I'm going to beat, that's just as boring as playing people that I know 100% will rape me. I like playing people who I know are around my skill (anywhere slightly worse to being slightly better), that way I can have good fun games.

Frankly I don't play at all to improve, so it's not like I gain anything by getting raped by good players other than saying "wow this guy is 10x my skill , woopdidoo"

Also I feel like I learn just as well from playing people who are my skill. Playing better players has never helped me. I'm able to just as easily watch my losses as well as my wins and look at my flaws and try to fix them. If I cared enough to want to improve that's what I do. Also practicing in single player helps me a lot more than getting owned by better players.

So ya, that's my philosophy. Kudos to everyone who likes getting rolled by better players, but that's not fun for me!
