I agree to everything except the "don't watch your own replays" thing, because it's often times similar mistakes you're making (not producing workers when you should, having idle production facilities, idle larvae although you have supply and money, having missrallied units around the map, ...
Well, that's true, but only to a certain extent. You'll be able to notice obvious mistakes, but for me, those are motly mistakes that I woul also notice in game. You can try watching all your replays, and if that's a good way for you to learn, then go for it - everyone learns differently.

Yes, I'm GoSuPokebuni.
Yep :p Something I pride myself in is never having left a game without a gg, and no rage to my opponent! (Friendly joking excluded :D)

i wished i would have that ability :D
i always rage when i lose, specialy to a huge blunder i made, then i rage even more to the oponnent :D

Poke, How do you like to practice? Mass laddering or sparring partners. Does yoru decision to do either matter if you are working on a certain build or new strat?

Ty poke, i used to be a person that raged about collossi. After reading this post i went practicing and realised that the easiest way to beat it is to have fun.

Hmm. I don't really have a ton of time to play, so I ladder more than practice partners, but I do both. When I want to test stuff out I usually do it with friends.

You are tired know you will play like shit and do it anyways. You then lose due to something incredible stupid. For me it was PvP and I got supply blocked at 18!!!

So is there actually a point in playing under bad conditions? I ruined my stats and motiviation, I am not going to play today because I fucking hate SC2 right now. Your Guide was meant to motivate me and that only worked for an hour or something but this hour demotivated me for at least the rest of the week. So, why should I play if I know I will just play 2 leagues worse than I am!? Also in that post before I was formulating it a little more emotionally, don't want to show bad manners on TL though, hence the Edit.
So is it useful to play if you know you will hardcore underperform due to e.g. lack of sleep?

I couldn't agree more with this.
Right now what's keeping me from improving is a mix between me thinking all my opponents suck and extreme frustration. Whenever I lose I get all pissed off and I stop playing for hours, even if it is a simple loss after 30 victories (I'm overexagerating ofcourse).
Learning to deal with your emotions and control them is the hardest thing for me on SC yet.

I don't think that was meant in the context of sc2... and fear is a very good emotion depending on how you react to it.

Practice/with friends sure, if you care about ladder. If you don't care about ladder then yeah, but only if you want! Have fun, but don't just always find silly reasons not to play.

Outstanding write-up. Really addresses a lot of points that aren't brought up in a ton of tutorials and stuff around the internet.

eFonSG: Referring to your page 1 post; i have to say this is the most enlightend post i have seen on the internet. I have to say I am impressed that you are not afraid to admit that it is hard for you to change perspective, and while you maintain your opinion you give pokebunny's post some viability, even if you do not agree completely. more people should be in your mindset, too many people dismiss ideas just because it doesn't fit into their immediate mindset. Good for you. 
@Pokebunny: Great post, just sad it got downvoted some on reddit, but i have to say this is the coolest thing i have read coming from a teenager. For sure, I have to say I would not, even if i could have written this post, be able to reply in such a cool-headed and decent manner. When I was your age i was quite literally all rage -.-' Well to be honest, I blame the environment, but still, great post from what is obviously a great mind developing into a superb one. Kudos.

The beginning of the thread it states that you are a top player as well as streamer. Before you made this claim you said you were a D on ICCUP so I would imagine and by comprehending this thread that you have built some confidence in yourself.
I follow GSL and all live LAN events spanning even to BW but I'm not familiar with who you are.
For me this thread didn't shed much light on anything but gave some insight as to who you are. Apparently young, and proud of your accomplishments whatever they may be. But most of the advice you had given is individually intrinsic to yourself. That's not to say that people haven't gotten anything from this thread but to each his own.
I believe anyone involved in anything can become quite good with the proper practice, and everyone who has the determination to improve will look inside themselves and find what they need to get over their problems. A long time ago a Korean pro gamer when I was very young told me "No lose no learn". Which is a strong point that I like. This to me seems like more of an inspiration thread. Something for when people are down they can use.

Darn straight. Fools do not have fear. Brave men face that fear.

He is Gosu Pokebunny, best player in NYC by far and a fairly good pro. How could you not know of the Pokebunny Allowance Cup or the Perfect-Pokebunny grudgematch?
