Hi my name is David and my handle is PvP. The name stands for Player vs Player, not Protoss vs Protoss as many think

Link to my stream

My Story and Goal
+ Show Spoiler +
I am very active reading on TL, but not so much for posting. It is simply to announce that I am now hosting a stream for a few reasons.

The first being that I need help, I have bounced from bronze to plat in 1 season, and then bounced back into gold, etc. I frequently train with players higher level than me so I know that my league isn't representative of my true capabilities despite the flaws in my game.

I'm hosting a stream to correct these flaws, hosting it hopefully gives me the incentive to play better, and more importantly receive feedback from you guys in regards to what I can be improving. I know that in a vast majority of the cases, nobody really wants to watch a gold/plat player stream as there are pro gamers out there. The good news is that I will be laddering and mainly custom games vs Diamond or Master calibre players.

Truth be told that I believe that it's good for lower rank players to get a perspective of games in their leagues, hopefully helping them get a sense of what is needed at every stage of the game.

The good news is that the game will be streamed on Extreme settings and the stream itself will be in 720+ HD, so that it can at least be pleasant to watch. Online 5 times a week in the evenings, times will vary but I am in the eastern time zone.


I am looking forward to entertaining and learning with all of you, as I will be frequently commenting and doing matches with anybody that would like to practice with me.





Thanks guys, and I hope to have your support!!!

I hate to burst your bubble, but being in gold after a season of playing does not bode well for your chances of ever being GM. Even NA GM.

Following your mentality, I surely will never be.

I say aiming for GM, because who doesn't aim for that?

Good luck with that man, I'd be game for practicing if cross-server play wasn't so god-awful

Haha, I gotta laugh at your name, PvP.

Because I came to SC from a WoW background, I was always so confused when people talked about PvP and other matchups, especially since I started as Protoss...

Well, I can say that I won't watch your stream, but I still want to just wish you luck, as I'm chasing the same dream (aren't we all? <3)

I don't understand how watching another low level player helps. Could your please explain? Also, wouldn't road to diamond be more appropriate considering your current skill?

It's perfectly understandable, I know most people wouldn't be all that interested, but as long as people know they have someone to practice with and have the chance with someone with similar skill level practice gives it a little change..

The stream is now live btw

Well I just don't see the point in trashing a guy who's seeking to improve personally. Anyway didn't TL's resident Protoss Agony Aunt CecilSunkure come all the way out of bronze to recently being picked up by a pro team?

I can play you with Z/T and give you feedback from a protoss perspective (P main). ZvP ~mediocre diamond, TvP ~low/mid master. If you're interested add me (Harmony.287) and give me a msg whenever I'm on! If you've got other practice partners I can also obs games from your perspective.

Thanks Tort <3

And whistle I'll definitely take you up on that!

Glad I get some support, as I know this type of thing isn't for everyone. At least my first streamed game was a win

Having high goals is good and all, but using them for a sensationalist title is not so good. The road to gm should at least imply that you are masters, as the road even then is very far.

NA GM is a lot easier to get into then you think right now tho... And to the OP I wish you best of luck on your glorious trip from gold to GM!
Yes my name is ironic.
