Should be doable in a month for someone who has the time.
I managed to get 20 wins on the first day and i did work all day and only got to play after work.

not much of a challenge if you proxygate/rax or 7pool imho.
just leave early if your rush doesn't succeed.
(micronesia) lol we aren't going to just permban you (micronesia) "we" excludes Jinro

If you play 50 games a day you will need 20 days to just play 1k with 1 race, not talking about winning. If u win 60% it will take you no less than a month. And 50 games a day means no work, no study, no nothing, just play sc, sleep, eat, use bathroom, go for a walk once in awhile. So this isn't anywhere near doable in a months time lol, you are looking at at least 3-4 months.

Yeah go ahead try 7 pooling every game see what your winrate will be when u get higher haha.

I think someone like IrdA, TLO or whatever is going to take this. They have to practice 8 hours + a day anyway, and probably win most of their games. This would just be more funds for their profession. Right? GL HF...

P.S. Someone conatact Blizzard NOW and tell them about this so they don't erase stats. I'm sure they would think this is a good idea, I mean, they did say they want to support E-Sports and events of this sort.

Doubt any of the profession will waste this much time just for $2000.

Its not wasting time if this is what they are doing anyway. If you play sc2 full-time, all day, every day, you have a good chance of covering this many matches in that timeframe. You also have the skills necessary to win most of your matches.
I'm going to sleep, let me get some of that carpet.

I'll tell you right now, almost none of the top players will go for this, only one of the eastern europeans might try because of the money. I can see white-ra or dimaga going at it, but it's not their style of play at all. Plus different tournaments and other stuff will be in the way.

Maybe TT1? Seems like someone who could pull this off.

lol Blizzard isn't going to not reset the ladder/stats because of some guy's promise to pay out 2 grand to whoever gets this truly monstrous achievement first ^^

especially if they patch something and break the game (remember that zerg larvae bug during the beta?) by accident, they'd have to reset. crazy awesome that Fayth is doing this, I've a gut feeling that resets will ruin this tho =/

You're joking right dude? It's a fact that EVERY pro SC2 player practices 6-8 hours MINIMUM a DAY. I didn't make this up for fun, TLO even said he practices by laddering, not custom games. So you do the math, he could reach this goal easy just by maintaining his pro status and ability. I don;t see why you guys think a pro WOULDN'T do this. If they have to practice there wins will go up ANYWAY. It's almost common sense stuff were talking about here guys... Common now...

Wait what? Blizzard would reset stats sure, but achievements? I don't think so. I'm sure if you are at 800 wins they won't change that to 0 in the achievements section. Like come on, then that achievement would be impossible.

It doesn't matter if they reset, you can just screenshot and document everything before the reset, not like it's that much of a problem.

but even if they reset the ladder I think stats will still stay, like for the achievement ur games will still be recorded, or else it would be totally retarded lol

true, for release at least

I was thinking of those full resets during the beta, but I suppose only stats-wipes would occur post-release

TLO is probably the only one who would do this with the "benefit" of practice, since he used to always play random. Everybody else, not so much.

I doubt any pro will get this achv. considering that would be playing min. 3000 games as your off race.

I think that now that the game is actually released and competition is only going to get better. TLO will have to pick a race or he might not be able to keep up

TLO has a good chance of getting this, since he used to play random anyways. Right up his alley. He could also get some extra Protoss practice in, and really know his enemy inside out.
