I have no idea what happened in the starcraft world in the past 1.5 years but jesus tapdancing christ starcraft is on a ridiculous level.

I used to be like top 20 in the usa on the ladders and stuff with little effort, B rank on pgt whatever i didnt game that much competitively i just gamed to talk shit and play ums but i was still good at the game relatively compared to the rest of the population of starcraft players.

I've recently gotten really interested in the game again watching every english casted game i can find in my spare time and eventually it just came down to me saying "Man i fucking love this game, i gotta put the time in to be good again"

Little did i fucking know how hard of a task this is to accomplish. I'm currently 32-35 C- on iccup. I rematch everyone i lose to or try to anyway, and i obviously am not dodging anyone cause this isnt me trying to make some run at the top of the ladder I just wanna get good so I prefer losing but fuck at least let me do it at a respectable level, having a <50% winning ratio at C- is stupid as fuck and embarassing.

I played 20 games today and for the first time in my life my wrist is killing me. I never used to have issues with wrist pain but I'm hoping it was just the angle i was sitting at and I don't have carpel tunnel syndrome.

everyone come play sc with me!

when you haven't played for a long time and start practicing suddenly in the first days I think is normal for the wrist to be killing you
then with the days of practice it becomes normal so dont worry about that

btw when did you start playing ?... cuz the more earlier you start the more of a negative stats you will have imo xD

i mean... 32-35 can be looked as not that bad of a stats if you say from the very first day --;

Enjoy the game

StarCraft has evolved a lot...I know, I took a 1,5 years break in 2005, then when I came back the basic starter build orders changed so much I didn't know where my head was

And competivity is on a ridicolous level nowadays. I became even better that I've been (B+ old old PGT, one of the very first seasons with masses of Koreans), and still can't grind past B on today's ICCup. So don't get too frustrated, ICC is a lot harder than PGT used to be (that's what everyone says at least, esp. if you play korean mainstream hours).

My favourite line is Bet/Fold. I bet, you fold.

Game has changed a ton because the maps are so fast expo happy.

Back in the day you could win with early game tactics but now if you can't control 150+ supply like a monster you're fucked.
