Past Year or so of my life in gaming
 

So its 2am, sitting here listening to korpiklaani nothing really to do, i dont feel like sc2 because its protoss hour, lost two games due to stupid zealot drops and not being ready to defend them and just plaiyng horrible. T_T I decided why not post some shit on how my goal in starcraft was going..

So basicly most of you will probably remember the stupid zerg bronze to masters post on TL and everything? it started off great was getting a promotion every 2-3 weeks ( keep in mind i played 5-10 games every 2 days) and i reached plat and took a longgggggg ass break from starcraft two to focus on getting 2.3k ELO in League of legends.

Now i spent like.. 4 months? playing league constantly and having stupid trolls in matches and just getting decent. I decided to go for 2.3k elo around 2 months ago now and well.. i started off winning all 10 placement matches as support taric/sona averaging 4/0/28 every game, was freaking amazing and i was like Hell yeah going to get 1700 right off the bat! but nope.. 1200 ELO, i decided to work my way up since hey i had those amazing games wouldnt be to hard right? Well this is where i began to hate the community, i kept getting stupid matches where the ADC would feed even know i try so much to goddamn save them like they get tower dived i stun them so they can run away they start walking away and come back instantly when the jungler comes in with full hp (ADC is like 50 hp from death) and ADC's failing to cs i remember so many games i had ADCs with 30 cs at 20min mark holy crap was i pissed off. i kept it to my self since i didnt want people to report me since getting level 30 takes abit of time and im lazy as shit. But yeah i went from 1200 - 900-1400-1000-1300-800 and stayed there i cant get out.. also i stopped trying. I remember so many games i went 5/0 as caitlyn in my lane it was amazing! constantly doing that every game with 180ish CS at 20min which is pretty freaking good. I found that when i did well in my lane.. TOP FED LIKE ABAWSSSSS and you cant beat a fed top player since most tops are stupidly powerful like most of the time it was garen (Not to be when not fed but when he is fed holy shit so tanky doesnt need to build damage just tank and his skills do so much damage already ) when you have a retarded team that cant DPS for shit it doesnt work well. But yeah i decided Hey top is feeding all the time ill play top! and... lets just say i always got counter picked by the last person on their team, so annoying ;-;

Mid kats normally did alright but alot of the time would be the only one fed from ksing everythinggggggggggggg and denying other players on the team champion kills which isnt great because a team with minions + 5-7 champ kills each isnt greatly even. i got so fed up with stupid people in my teams that i just quit league.
Yes i know league is a "team" game and everything else but when your going 5/0/0 180 minions at 20min mark and top/ jungler has always fed you can half tell its not my fault for losses.

I enjoyed the game its self but the community is what really ruins that game..

But anyway after that stupid crap about 2 weeks ago now i rejoined sc2 and started laddering getting rank 1 diamond sea with little effort. (Satu did get me out of gold/plat on sea while i played on KR) I just couldnt be stuffed getting my self out of it since PLAT KR was so much better prac and less lag. (Yes i understand i should lag to KR more then sea but i dont, dont ask me i got no effing clue. Ping to servers: EU = 198 ms, NA = 160, KR = 200, SEA = 217 as of right now.)

SO anyway back on topic satu got me into diamond on sea and i did the rest making my way from rank 80 to 1 in little under two days and just decided to play KR and try to reach diamond i got to rank 1 plat for about three days and still didnt get diamond after going 19-3 haha. I was quite annoyed about it.
few days after all of this i got picked up by Phoenix E-Sports and devoted alot of time into helping duxxie making it better and giving him ideas for future tournaments and other things~. few days after joining i started vsing rival and caution in a few games and constantly got owned and i just got completely bored of zerg (during my starcraft time i had worked up 130 ish games as terran due to getting bored of zerg and race switching constantly.) I decided i would play terran again and aim for GM sea, didnt get how high just wanted to reach some form of GM before year 12 starts up and i have little time for starcraft ( more on this later)
But what i have been doing is finding where my terran is at ive found : Tvp = high diamond, TvT = the amount of stupid shit that goes on in this i dont even know what league i would put it as, Tvz = **** zerg.

On NA i decided to ladder and saw a BSG scv rush tournament and well there were no rules about smurfing and 80% of the people in it were plat/diamond anyway it was funny as hell to see so many ex plat/diamonds playing in the tournament but i played like a retard and had a apm of 60ish and ended up only dropping one game to a protoss i dont remember what happen in the game but i lost all i know, but i went on to win 16-1 which was pretty good for me gave an ego boost hence i got pms from people after games saying (WOW your better then the diamonds i face on my main) and shit like that, i didnt really want to make friends so i pretended to be korean only typing ㅈㅈ and horrible english sentences xD and won a free hour of coaching from Masters terran named: Vanchen on NA(http://scvrush.com/posts/10022-vanchen). He was an incredible coach i had help in tvz and late game tvp. Insane coach i really reconmend him to any terran starting out.

Everything we went through in the lesson helped me so much later that night expect for in the clan war i lost to "LuckyShyt" from ETL due to a fail 2 rax into some stupid 7 rax mmm tank fail. i dont even know what i did i just broke after the two rax. I moved out at 17min ish with a giant 2/2 army and he had ling ultra infestor. I had amazing splits and good tank control but the amount of units just overran me and i gg'd out knowing he had 4 base to my 2. But shortly after i faced a protoss in phoenix who i was currently 2-0 his way. I took him down with some great ghost and viking control also keep minerals pretty low that game and just pulling out a victory. Was so surprised how much i had improved since the 2 nights before we faced. He put up a great fight. pXHealZ FIGHTING!.

but i went on to playing on EU later that night and went 12-1 against diamond zergs(yes i got 13 zergs in a row ) doing stupid roach hydra vs pure bio play. Giving me some easy wins thanks stephano for giving stupid zergs a build to give terrans free wins with!. I woke up yesterday morning around 10 expecting to play a few games before going to the otherhalfs but....... aion pvp tournament was on... and i couldnt help but watch since there was a kick ass templar from my old guild playing, i watched him get second place losing to some sorcerer who has completely bullllshitttt gear he was like full of the second rarest stone in the game was crazy. He was in a guild that really helps people with gear so he probs got it from everyone in guild xD. But yeah i that an interesting watch since i loved aion.

I came home around 8 to see the final matches of Phoenix vs ETL M/GM. watching wally crush an immortal sentry and rival get some godlike bane hits off. Seeing Phoenix win 4-2 was some great games.
Was also mentioning the "Toothbrush" thing in stream/ clan war thread since before the P/D war soundwave bmed the shit out of phoenix with some stupid toothbrush crap, we didnt reply just said yep gl hf and went on to win that night 4-3 didnt say anything after that. Waited till today to see if we won to say it hence ETL was meant to crush us and do toothbrush crap which anyone in that chat at the time will understand. but yeah was a great fun time! gg ETL and thanks for the fun.

My experience so far with being in phoenix is all positive so many great strong players, its a fun and interesting clan! getting along very well with my buddy light scrub nab protoss and ADC.
Also our chat can get pretty funny. ive cried from laughter so many times lately.

Now ive got two weeks before year 12 starts and limits my playing time on starcraft EXTREMELY. since im aiming for a atar of 99/100. so homework and everything else constantly, hopefully first few weeks will be bit more easy since getting back into being away from school so long.

Oh i also decided to make a 3D Model of some girl and have her dance for a drink commercial for my major design project. Which will take a cupple of weeks (depending on how much i no life it).

Between this two weeks, im working towards getting GM on SEA so playing 25+ games a day. I know GM is not much to most but when you started in bronze like i did its a great thing.
Im currently working on improving my tvz and "TRYING" to be aggressive with bio but i think ill just go back to mech and crush zergs with thanks and thors. Nothing more satisfying then the sound of roaches dying to siege tank fire.
Also working out what build i should do for tvp. currently liking 1rax cc into 4 rax banshee which is doing alright but still working out kinks.
As for TvT well.. when they go mech, i rush bc/viking, then they go marine tank i do the same and when they go bc i just make alot of marines and never stop a-moving..

Im looking for a good protoss and terran practice partner to play with for the next few days.. so if your interested give me a pm or reply to this.

TDLR: **** you go read.


Now im sitting here thinking what the **** did i just write this giant blog that took me 50min for? will anyone even read it fully? i doubt people care what i have to say but for the people that do well thanks .

"I dont want "pro" replays from gsl and shit because they on a wholeee different skill level then people you face on ladder."

What? You dont want to steal and use builds that are super efficient and clever?

"btw charlie i know you would have read this, so ill be up at 11 for few games"

Still dont feel obliged to read the entire wall of text lolol

Re: Past Year or so of my life in gaming
 

I'll upload the horrible photos of you when we made that cake

Re: Past Year or so of my life in gaming
 

I didn't "BM the shit out of Phoenix", it was rather obviously friendly trash talk and banter and I'm sorry if you interpreted it in any other fashion. Chill out, yo.

Re: Past Year or so of my life in gaming
 

mate, i am extremely bm. that was not "friendly" trashtalk

Re: Past Year or so of my life in gaming
 

Uh, yes it was.

Here is what was said, roughly.

pXCentrelink: Soundwave, watch my build tonight Hope I get a Zerg!

ETLSoundwave: Haha. Nah, sorry bro, but the Plat/Diamond boys are gonna kick your teeth so far down your throat you'll have to stick a tooth brush up your ass to brush them!


Like, if I was genuinely trying to insult you, why would I say something kind of creative and funny? If I wanted to insult you wouldn't I say "you're bad, we're gonna ******* stomp you."

Re: Past Year or so of my life in gaming

Re: Past Year or so of my life in gaming
 

YAY I got a mention . Gl on your journey to GM. Maybe try and be a little less bm, like even if someone is serious and bming you the right response isn't to bm back, you look a lot better if you act mature!

Re: Past Year or so of my life in gaming
 

You missed my games!?! :P

Re: Past Year or so of my life in gaming

Re: Past Year or so of my life in gaming

Re: Past Year or so of my life in gaming
 

hahaha it was the right placement he just reacted WAYYYYY to fast for me to get bunkers up i should really do the outside ramp ones its more safer ;;

Re: Past Year or so of my life in gaming
 

If i may suggest, try to manner up and you might get more practice partners. :P
