last placement match i literally killed all 3 opponents myself with speedlings, my 2 allies were just expanding or teching or something and by the time all 3 enemies was destroyed and had left my team other than me had a total of 0 kills, if that doesn't earn me diamond i don't know what does!. Not really complaining though i realise it's hard to get it all accurate i just found it funny. | ||

If you're lucky enough like me you can get into the diamond league with a 3-2 start in your placement matches.. So this is all some kind of joke is it? | ||

Hahaha, that is a fantastic picture. I don't despise cheesy players or anything, but the placement match descriptions in the OP are humourous, seeing as they are all cheeses. | ||

In a game of war there's no "no rush" or "don't attack me until I an get equal army." I really don't like how people cry about it. This is a strategy game where harassing the enemy and/or putting pressure on them early on is a very crucial tactic. Edit: Furthermore, there's something called scouting. That's also a part of the game, or is that an unfair and cheap way to play too? He's not complaining. He's simply stating that you went 3-2 and used a "part of the game" which requires minimal skill to execute. | ||

You cant play any race decently if LITERALLY all you do is cheese. and no, there is no being good at cheese. it is straight up 'did i get scouted? well fuck' or 'i didnt get scouted? nice, free win.' very minimal effort goes into learning or executing cheese. Theres quite a big difference between playing standardish games with some cheese here and there to make you unpredictable, and playing 100% cheese and then giving yourself a high five and masturbating out of joy for being such a 'strategically gifted' player. no you dont play any race decently or better. you just cheese with every race. that isnt decent or good play in and of itself | ||

Yesterday, I watched a 12 year old 30 apm noob getting placed into platinum by just massing stalker and void ray or collossus from one base. He played all placement matches except for 1 against other 30 apm noobs and won after 20-30 minutes with an a-move, mostly stacking minerals (but not too much, because even at 30 apm you can keep you minerals from one base low, if you dont do any multitasking for 15 minutes lol). So, to me the system seems to be extremely broken, even though I understand that the boy was really happy and proud of getting into platinum .) | ||
