You have forgotten to mention that you need to play all those 7 games blindfolded while sitting on a virgin goat

Did you not notice that since you obtained your master's badge by unholy means, it has a small permanently bleeding eye that is following you everywhere you go? Not only in-game, but everywhere. Even now.

Even now.

I can tell you for a fact that the goat doesn't have to be virgin. I made damn well sure.

It's wonderful how quickly a SC2-related discussion lead one to googling whether a goat has a hymen. Which seem to be one of the most profound questions to which google fails to provide an answer.

Blizzards placement is incredibly good, I think it even compensates for your matchup %'s.
I swapped to terran this season and my tvz winrate is abysmal (it was at %14 last time I checked) so I always get placed vs bronze and silver zergs, but all my other matchups are vs other gold players in my league.

Like everyone said, just play more, 4 games is nothing, go play 50.

Still bronze... says I'm rank 2, it's been on 'rank 2 ' for a month now. wtf.


It's called the "bronze rank 2 bug". It's not even possible to reach rank 1 of your division.

Didn't used to, i sat at ~30/70 PvT, 70/30 PvZ for hundreds of games at the end of WOL

I went silver to plat in about 40ish games (working my way up plat again currently). Just keep playing, you got this .
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

Dude how did you forget the most important part!? Granted, spinal fluid of a mule deer is hard to come by. But, I feel you can't mention the virgin goat WITHOUT mentioning the spinal fluid. Further, you don't need to be blindfolded until AFTER the talons have been bound. Hah, otherwise that's just a big mess waiting to happen. Lot of good starcraft players end up minus their index fingers due to that one. Definitely a rookie move.

It doesn't really matter where you got placed, I got placed in bronze but I knew I was a better player than that, 5 days later, I get promoted to diamond. The system is pretty good at judging where you should be just focus on improving rather then "who" you beat. Maybe the silver players you beat had horrible MMR who knows. Practice/Improving will gain you results.

The TLDR of the entire issue is that you should just play your best and don't let people's ranks bother you.
