I know many people who have a good grasp of the game but fail mechanically and are stuck in the lower leagues, and it goes bothways.. this was especially true in BW. You had people in C+ and higher up to B-- who could have insane mechanics but bad game knowledge.
knowing the game=/= playing the game well
Really great of TB to support a player like Bling, been following him for quite some time. Hope Bling can get even better now!
