I know for me it's mostly stupid stuff like not scouting my base properly if I know thier going to cannon rush me and getting supply blocked has killed me a few times to day. | ||

On the other hand, I think those games there wasn't a roommate sitting next to me saying stuff like "build an OL, he's pushing out, take the expo, etc." | ||

After 3 I stop. Period. Unless I'm playing a friend I chat with a lot. On the ladder, I can't take more than 3. So, this probably explains why I'm not really good as well. | ||

Man.. when mij brother is sitting next to me and I try to micro / macro the shit out of my game, he still tells me "Make collosi they're awesome" "What I went stargate te.." "make pylons OMG" "Huh? I still got 4 sup.." "THEY'RE ATTACKING" "WHAAAT? It was a scouting scv.." etc... I get alot more stressed. Anyway my losing streak is around 3. After a streak like that I mostly quit. And start it up again after a few hours. | ||

Going from no competitive SC game experience to ICCUP, I lost 144 games before I won one. Around the 200 mark I hit D+, but before then, my score was, if memory serves, double digits. | ||

I get so tense playing that I get exhausted. It's so much to do and in battles my heart beats fast. I'm almost shaking at the end of the games. This game is awesome. | ||

That said my best win streak was only 8 or so... #1 Plat with ~700 points right now, maybe I'll end up in diamond? Anyone know how likely that is? | ||

That's the price you pay for trying to learn a new race from the bottom up while being stuck in top diamond because Blizzard won't let you smurf. | ||

in sc2 4-5 was the biggest streak i had in ladder i think after release. only happens when i play semidrunk at like 3am or later. found that the system adapts damn fast. just 3 losses in a row were the difference between getting matched against good 900++ players and very mediocre 550 players(diamond ofc). but my overall ladder game number is still pretty low (not even 100) so maybe the MMR jumps are still a bit big. | ||

The game read our minds however, they must have seen my other leagues and thought it was wrong because the game proceeded to match us up against 13 Diamond league teams in a row. Now we aren't terrible players but we aren't a coordinated 2v2 team in such a way that the Diamond players were. It got to the point where I'd ask them what they were ranked at the start of games just to see if we had gotten matched up again... The game never figured it out that we can't hack that level of play and continued to do it to us right until Beta close. I haven't had an opportunity to play 2v2 with him in retail yet. | ||

I just think it's something to consider, and may make games more interesting as people wouldn't be so aggressive to get games over with as fast as possible if they knew winning an hour long game would be the same as winning four fifteen minute games. Of course for the other person it would be like losing four fifteen minute games. Curious to hear what everyone thinks, should points be scaled over time spent in game, or should you be punished for not scouting properly? | ||

Bigger Problem is that I rarely have any winning streaks. Max is like 2-3 wins in a row. Well I guess that Matchmaking systems is working for me. (Diamond) | ||

My biggest losing streak is 3 or 4. The matchup system does a pretty good job of lowering the competition when you start losing alot. It's crazy to see people have upwards 20 game losing streaks. Must be in total meltdown mode for that to be possible. | ||

Does anyone think points earned or lost should be scaled over time spent in a single game? I'm not trying to write off cheese as being cheap, personally I feel it's part of the game, but at the same time losing your rank so quickly can be devastating to your W/L ratio, which in turn can effect the difficulty of your opponents due to the new matchmaking system. I just think it's something to consider, and may make games more interesting as people wouldn't be so aggressive to get games over with as fast as possible if they knew winning an hour long game would be the same as winning four fifteen minute games. Of course for the other person it would be like losing four fifteen minute games. Curious to hear what everyone thinks, should points be scaled over time spent in game, or should you be punished for not scouting properly? I think you just have to learn to deal with it, it's part of the game whether it's less impressive or less enjoyable than having a long close game. I don't think you could scale points with time, people would just abuse it by playing games out longer when they know they could finish it. | ||

Most of the games were ZvT and in the end it just felt like nothing worked, even though my play was getting really bad at that point. Haven't forced on keeping playing after that - not cos it fucks your ratio but just because it isn't useful or fun at all. | ||

Sometimes I just don't get ZvP. I might win when I didn't expect to or I might lose without really knowing what I could've done about it. | ||
