Despite the title this has nothing to do with actual sex. I named it such as I thought it was a good phrase for saying "I'm playing Starcraft 2 for a year".
Anyway, this is my weekly blog on all the things I learn about Starcraft, the experiences I've had with the game and maybe a bit about my personal life as well.

Chapter 1 - My life now.

So I'm in year ten, I'm Australian, Got a Girlfriend, I'm a Silver League Zerg Player and I'm trying to get to Platinum by the end of the year a modest goal but I would rather get up with skill rather than say 6 pool my way there.

I wanted to try some other races this week, I was a little bored of Zerg and I race switch for a few days every so often, it keeps me on my feet. I tried Terran but I kept getting beat down by Banelings and I tried Protoss but I couldn't defend against those bloody mutalisks!

With this new found fear for Zerg units I went back to the Swarm. After a few games I started to learn a new trick. I tried to flank the opponents army and defeat him with just Zerglings. It work much better than I though.

Now I am using mainly Zergling, Roach, Muta, Ultra army and it works a treat.

I've been 1v1ing hard to try and get to Gold. I'm beating Golds with a 55% rate and Silvers with an 85% win rate. I think I am really close.

Till next week. Zanderax

Re: My Year Without Sex

My advice: Focus more on your girlfriend that in sc2. Sex is a lot better than the feeling of getting into grandmaster.

You'll thank me in a few years.

Be prepared for a lot of frustration. Maybe you can foreplay with your girlfriend should you rage at losses.

Re: My Year Without Sex

Girlfriend > SC2 btw. Always be clear of this. Had some issues with mine because of gaming (especially WoW, that bloody time sink), had to do some soul searching to get my priorities set straight.

+ [Then again] +
Then again, depends on how serious your 'girlfriend' is. If it's just a fling kind of thing, then this does not apply

It's kinda serious but I talk to her a lot and SC2 seems to automatically take a back seat with her anyway, she knows I like to play and gives me some time.

Wrong again, marriage doesn't come packed with sex. You are likely to have less sex after marriage than before. Your call.

It's not hard to pick up and game same time. Closet nerd style, just get your priorities right and you'll get the best of both worlds. :P

PS. Mad respect for you for saving yourself for marriage, the older you get if you continue to get girls its gonna be harder and harder. GLGL
