You don´t lose because of random things, you lose because you aren´t that good, Diamond is really about a solid opening and somewhat good game sence, whenever you got those you can be top diamond with out any problem, you may say that it is cause lack of practice, but in reality it is only lack of focus and game sence, I often find myself playing poorly, but by now I just know that it is cause I dont have the right focus of aren´t doing everything I know to do.

Can I disagree with this?
I got my mechanics down ( As in, nailing injects, macro'ing up, creep spread etc.) but I barely know anything about strategies or how to read my opponent. All that's solid is my openings up to 21 food and my mechanics.
I have zero game sense, yet I'm top diamond.
I have barely any clue on what my opponent is doing most of the time, I just do my own thing. Don't even know why I'm doing it, just because it feels right.
Compare that to my buddy who's missing half his injects and doesn't drone nearly as much as he should and barely spreads creep, but has great game sense/strategic insight. He's platinum ( Might turn diamond tomorrow though.)
