ok, finally had time to read through the entire article.

I have to say i thought it would be good.... but damn its even way better then i thought!

Learned so much on how to approach the game and to teach and test myself on improving. I mean i knew i sucked, but now i know how to take that info and turn it into something useful.

Holy wall of text! That's an awesome write up Cecil, do you mind if I translate it to spanish and post it on other communities? A lot of guys just don't know how to read english, and I feel that it's a shame they can't read such quality posts like theese. Obviously I'll give credit to you guys, but I wanted to know if you're ok with it.

Also, if anyone has translated it already, please say so, there's no use in doing the same thing twice.

I knew this guide was ligit when I scrolled down and saw a section called "you suck" and read a line or two of it. Seriously dude, that is so important and this guide is the best thing ever. You're a hero dude.

Cecil, how many games have you played on the ladder? Just wondering, you mentioned you went silver to masters, trying to figure out how long it took you to get better. I myself started off in bronze and am currently high diamond ^.^
