It's not that bad, I could still reach B- immediately after missing 2 years (that was in 2007 though). And Dixer ain't no newb, even if you don't know him.

just hit C rank today 44-22 so far,
I completely despise the map medusa... any map where you can transfer probes and they just run in circles somewhere is very frustrating in my opinion...
I play a lot of ZvP now since I find PvP to be quite boring, and my ZvP is getting pretty strong..
doing mostly early 4 hatch builds and out macroing toss with mass hydra, my hydra micro isnt that bad and my macro is stronger than the average C+/B- player.
i cant believe i wasn't fast expanding before and saying it wasn't that great etc, fast expand is now 90% of my pvz games.... i officially am a moron for thinking fast expand wasnt the way to go in PvZ.

i have a couple reps vs B- level players if anyones interested, PvTs, ZvPs, and PvZs are the matchups i play mostly now. (couple TvPs vs good players too)
i cant wait to get to C+ and start getting destroyed by the endless onslaught of young korean gosus... there are way too many of them >_<

Saddles, post your aka,, link reps vs possible good players, and get out. This isn't a blog to update people on your failure to achieve anything you said you would.

yah you're not kidding ... i thought it would take me a few weeks and it ended up taking over 3 months...50% of it was getting hand speed back and 50% of it was learning the new strats... so much more early expanding now than there was back in the day

I don't really think that's true... all I said was I'd be one of the better tosses in the USA, and get to B- rank.
I think you would have a hard time finding more than 4-5 USA protoss who are clearly better than me... im a different player today than I was 2 months ago (doing stupid outdated strats)
I think you're mad that the last game we played I walked all over you with FE...

There are far more than 4-5 better USA tosses than you Saddles, I'm positive.

id really like to see their iccup profiles...
right now im ranked 30'th or so in USA and im one of the few playing legitimate games... and my win percentage is higher than 15 of those 30 people ahead of me....
plus a lot of that list is abusers and screeners etc. like some of those SCL- people playing only 1 matchup or screening people's records to decide whether to play them or not.
i never said I'm good in the overall picture or anything like that, all I'm saying is there is a severe lack of good USA toss, and im probably #4 or #5

If I get to top 10 USA on iccup will it even prove anything? I'm only 5 games away from that right now.
And I could show you at least 10 abusers in that top 30.

I really don't think your standing in the USA national page is an accurate way to guage your current level relative to others in the US. Not everyone plays iccup actively, or on an ID known by others (most smurf). On top of that, current ranking is all subjective to who you play.
Just for fun, here are some that I personally think are better. (just my opinion)
Nony, G5, Chosen (good with all races) , louder, arcology (he did win a series against you last season) and future (gotten alot better), inka, and ranged. I am probably leaving some obvious choice or 2 out, as I don't know who else is active.

nony is #1
g5 ive never played but i guess ill give him the benefit of the doubt.
if chosen picks toss vs me I will win more than loss.... I'll prove that anytime.
louder and arcology are not better than me.. I played arcology MONTHS ago and almost 2-1'd him... I am a different player now than I was when I played him, and I was still winning back then >_<
future inka and ranged ive never heard of but will gladly play series with to prove whos better.

you're terrible stop posting
and trying to justify yourself by iccup rankings is almost as pitiful as when you bragged about losing to arcology 1-2.

Damn IdrA is right for once.
