So first off my goal is to make it to GrandMasters before the end of the year. Why make the goal now, well I have my first baby on the way and not just one but twins their due date is Jan. 1. I do believe I have what it takes and can do it. This will be a very hard road to make but one I will do. I plan on playing at least 4 hours a day and hopefully more 6 days a week. I will make a blog post a day with my updates and what I plan on working on in my game the next day and how I did.
The challenges first my fiance is pregnant with twins and wants attention. Second I am in Bangkok playing on the NA server. Three I am disabled and sometimes will be in such bad pain I simply cant play.
I am currently rank 35 diamond 453 points, yes it is a long way to go but I will work hard.
I have had coaching from Incontrol if you have read my blogs before you know and also a little bit about me. If you haven't read feel free to do so some people enjoyed them.
I will accept any help or coaching, and if there is interest I will stream my adventures, anyways thanks alot.
You can PM to onegu.332
See you guys tomorrow.

hope things work out well for you with your twins and being disabled and all <3 TBH, you're better off making some master level friends and practicing with them. They could point out some obvious mistakes that you are making in your play and you can work on them in your own practice time.
I was grandmaster last season and I have some RL diamond friends who ask me to coach them. But it's actually quite hard to help them. They have so many problems in their play. Usually it's a combination of mechanics, bad builds, and illogical decisions.

Dude keep that stupid pregnant fiance out of the way for sure haha. Also i've found rather than spend time with my family, giving them attention etc. That time can be used so much better just watching replays or taking a shit. Good luck with Grandmasters and remember; Starcraft comes first!!

Your fiance is pregnant with twins and wants your attention.
She is so selfish. Can't she understand how important getting to Grandmaster ?

Husband of the year right here. Hurts too bad to work, but not too bad to plan on ignoring his pregnant wife to go play a stupid game, collect disability and add a little more income by playing poker online
Do you even realize how much of an asshole you sound like??? Holy shit. You don't work, your soon to be wife is pregnant with two kids, and you plan on using your shitloads of free time on things other than making her life as easy as possible. Way to repay the person who I'm sure takes care of your ass all the time

Good luck on your quest of grandmasters and fatherhood.

You should switch to Zerg, you seem to have a knack with those larvae injects, congrats on twins!
As for your predicament, with twins on the way, you could potentially teach them to check the minimap for you and help you with your hotkeys! That should get you to at least Masters.
Also, if you teach your soon-to-be twins to feed each other. That could shave a lot of time, breast-feeding should also keep your wife's hands full, occupied and stimulated in areas you no longer see necessary to keep her happy or at least give attention to.
In all seriousness, making it to GM would seem like a possible feat, but what will you do after the twins are born?

Uhm, if you really think the second half of a pregnancy is the right time to make a dedicated push in a computer game, I don't see the whole parent thing working out very well.
First half of my wife's pregnancy was entertaining enough, but the second half? Hah. I spent more time playing games on my cell phone at work than I did my PC at home.

lol i thought this would be about life

Ok first off I am never 5 feet from her. I play on my laptop if she goes anywhere, take second look at OP is 4 hours a day really that much? When most people have a pregnant wife they still work 8 hours. Im playing a video game in a comfortable chair. And why do you think I said by the end of the year Im the stay at home dad when they are born I will give this up hopefully at the end of my goal. Mostly she sleeps alot I hold her until she sleeps then play a hour or so while she sleeps. When she is awake I am doing all I can for her to make her comfortable. REALLY AM I THAT BAD OF A PERSON TO WANT TO HAVE A TANGIBLE GOAL SINCE I REALLY CANT WORK?
