Over the course of the last week I went back to FilterSC's bronze to masters zerg guide build order, it was fairly nice, this is the build I was doing before I started getting coached from Jared (PiG)
With that in mind, I was only playing 2-3 games a night trying to work on early droning.
So with that background done let's move onto the fun stuff, today as I did last Sunday, I had a coaching session with FLuX, we went over adjustments to the build order I was doing to optimise it some more as well as adding a 3rd/4th base. Doing this made my games a little harder as I had a few more things to focus on eg the split gas timings mainly.
Anyway, during the course of the day I played some really nice macro games, finishing the day at 9pm with a W/L of 16-2
The best part of this was the fact I finally hit Platinum on the NA server, so a big thanks to those that have supported me along the way through the good and bad, a special thanks to 3 people who have coached me and invested a lot of time into me PiG, Satu and FLuX and a special mention to the big man himself Domo, you sir are a legend, always advice when I needed it etc Also Fenner, keep doing your vids man your impact to the sc2 community is amazing keep it up boss

I was smiling right along with you when you get plat, holy dooley being serious when I say watching you get so happy is one of the top 5 moments i've ever had in starcraft.
Well done.

Did not disappoint.. So nice to see someone get something they have been working hard for. Just keep pushing this positivity and improve your play, take the losses as they come and learn from them. It's hard getting Plat > Diamond but if you stay positive you'll be there in no time at all.
