But it's fun to play against players with more skill than you, every once in a while anyway. I was playing yesterday and got slaughtered by a rank 25 grand master, but today I held my own against a master player. Even the diamond that we lost to tonight, I think we both could have won with minor tweaks.

going pure void/tempest while arguing with the GF may not have been the best way to win that fight.


i just needed less background yelling and more zealots/cannons to win.

Lol, yeah. Dont' think cannons would have helped. Chargelots, storm, colossus, or archon would have been good. Using tempest to snipe the stealth detect and then dt's would have been epic too.

In my case, I think a lack of voids and being out of position is what cost me.

I didn't think he used Swarm Hosts on you, I thought it was hydra corruptor only. I was the one that got bombarded by SH.

Okay, so I watched most of Day9's Funday Monday today, which was a riot. The theme was 4v4 where one person is allowed to make units and the other 3 are there to feed him. In the second Youtube video 4 Zerg players spawn into the game, after 5 seconds 3 of them quit and the player still in the game dropped a spawning pool at the 20 second mark.

By the time the other team had their first units coming out of their structures he was running up in their base with 16 speedlings, had 3 hatcheries in his main base with 3 queens spitting out tons of larva. It might have been the funniest thing I have seen in a long time.

Wow, Day 9 has always been a little silly, but damn, I think someone gave him shrooms and filled the room with laughing gas on that one. Funny as hell.

Just realized something. I am terrible at Protoss vs Protoss. 0-6 this season. On the flip side, I dominate zerg with protoss. 7-3 this season. With terran, I am .500 against toss and terran, but .550 against zerg.

Well the inevitable happened. I played a 1v1 ranked match and just barely one. The terran PF'd everywhere and went mass Thor but I Immortalled through the first encounter the DT harrassed till he pushed with everything. I got 15 Archons and just tore him apart. Kept expanding behind everything, had like 6 bases while kept him on 3.

Sadly though, I got placed into Bronze. :( Rank 5 Bronze :(

I wouldn't worry about being placed in Bronze, a lot of the people in the top 8 Bronze who are actually good are generally closer to mid-high level silver than bronze anyway at least this is just my experience. I finished last season at Rank 1 Bronze of my ladder and beat most of the silvers it put me against and even a gold once or twice. If you happen to play a lot then you will definitely be promoted into silver anyway, if you only play a moderate amount expect a lot of free wins against bronzes and a 200+ point gap between you and the other top 8 by the end of the season :toast:
