Hey guys! I've just come back from a 2month hiatus from SC2, and I can't wait to start playing again! Have been busy with WoW and just recently quit!

The problem now is my PC just died on me, and I'll be replacing it ASAP. I have a laptop but I was never able to play properly on it.

Anw obviously after 2 months of not playing.. My skills are rusty like hell! I hopped on a friend's account to play 3 ladder games (he was Plat) and LOST all 3 games ag Plat players! They were pretty clearcut losses too, not some cheese. I played a 4th game ag a Gold player and LOST AS WELL

Everything was off, my injects, decision making, scouting, reaction (and we all know how impt reacting is as Zerg in terms of choosing Drones or units)

So while I do wanna come back to the game, my aim isn't to push high Masters or GM, but just to enjoy the game. One of my friend's friends has very kindly let me use his acct, which I will be namechanging to 'TheGrayZerg' (Witty, no?)
(Free lollipop for you if you get why I picked 'GrayZerg' as a nick. It's pretty obvious. But people don't get it somehow. :S)

My goals are as such :
1) play Zerg to get my basic mechanics back till I hit Plat (it's in Gold)
2) play Random! And try to hit diamond. Don't really have to, just playing for fun!
3) try to get my Zerg level back to at least high diamond skill level, after which I'll go back to my main account and play customs ag random ppl for fun

My toss/Terran is pretty bad at abt gold level so I hope to improve them to a decent level :/ and from the looks of it my Zerg is currently at that level too. Hope to get it back!

And before anyone cries 'smurf!!! You suck! !&@&?',
- Im NOT Using my lower league status to join any tourney
- NOT Deliberately staying at a lower league to get matched w lesser opponents to satisfy my e-peen
- I DO want to get out of the lower leagues ASAP

Thus If you're still against it.... Well go ahead and flame me I can't stop you. ^^

And i MAY post the recaps of interesting games if I have time, school is pretty busy ATM

Say hi if you see me!

Re: The Gray Zerg

@TriggerSappy haha! I'll be playing on SEA as before, I can't play on NA as I get 0.5-1s delay there.

@Muldeh Thanks alot!
If you're talking about ZvX, I would suppose I have the most work to do on ZvT and ZvP. ZvZ is more of a coin flip-ish matchup and see who has the better all-in haha! It's true, I played 2 games ag another Masters Zerg from channel 2bh and both games was just some variation of a roach/ling all in.

If you're talking about P and T as well, I have most problems with mirrors (TvT and PvP), and I hate PvT. Normally P/T v Z are the easiest for me because I just use the strategies that I always lose to as Zerg haha!



And just an update, the namechange is done, I decided to go with the moniker 'TheGrAyZerg' as I thought it was funnier and at least slightly different from my original nick. When I get my new PC up and running I'll start playing some games there!

Re: The Gray Zerg

@Zanderax Sure I'll add you once my new PC is up and I log on. PM me your char code or something if it isn't in your profile

@ZergGirl - Lol, i have little power my friend, it is but a mere title I possess

@DtorR - There are actually 2 underlying meanings for my name choice.
'Gray' is because I consider myself an average, nondescript person. I'm not exceptional in any way, and just get by. I was also a fan of the teenage detective series 'Hardy Boys', in which there was this character 'the Gray Man', who possessed those very characteristics and I thought he was pretty cool. Thus, gray.

And I hope you have not missed the obvious reason why I picked the nick 'GrayZerg' though!

Re: The Gray Zerg

hi5, crazerk. We might bump into each other. I took a long break. Came back and BAM. Lost 7 games in a row. HAHAHA! Against plats and high gold. Well, 2 high golds. Then I won 2 again against plats but my gameplay is so far off! I'm still in plat but wouldn't be surprised if i get demoted back to gold. I do play random so it's just the general mechanics, macro/micro that i need to work on.

Oh... Hardy Boys.... That brings back memories of the Hardly Boys from South Park. Oh man... raging clues.... That's just soooooooo inappropriate. LOL!

Re: The Gray Zerg

if you want to practice your zerg skills then you should focus on scouting and saving larva in situations that are unknown.
