ok let me put it this way, I think this whole B2GM thing is a bit gimmicky.

You should really be playing to get better, Grandmasters is given to you when the system thinks you are ready for it.
Don't focus JUST on laddering, micro games and just reading up on strats and info is just as important as laddering, you are practically putting the GM on a pedestal and it's just going to be harder in the long run if you try to improve by mass games on ladder rather than actually being good at the game.
In reality, if you perfectly executed a cheese to grand masters, you would be IN grandmasters, but you wouldn't have the standard of a Grand masters player.

that's my rant, good luck, I am still following this so take it as constructive criticism.

I disagree with this, until you are Plat or even Diamond.

Watching streams and trying to take builds from pros is just dumb when your Bronze, because you won't have the mechanics to pull the builds off.
In BSG just play reminding yourself to keep injects and overlords, and go for the standard army comp and you will find that you will start winning matches without difficulty

Good luck

Guys stop giving him a hard time. He is drawing motivation from the fact he wants to be GM and he is trying to reach his dream

.

However you shouldn't really proxy hatch or 7pool.

every time I read this I see a list of cheeses and a crap ton of games played...

I would like to suggest that you play more passively and try to learn the matchups so play macro each game. Take pride in each game, play properly and without a great deal ofemotion.. which i think is what you are doing now.

You will benefit much more by playing 5 macro games on each server a night and watching the replays, rather than playing 15 matches in a row on each server without taking a second look at why you lost.

Good luck man!

Yes , I think your right pRoNtoriouS, however I dont have a large BO list, if you guys know any standard macro build orders that you would like to watch or even a list I will practice those.
I will stop 7 pooling, its only one in like 10 zvz, im trying to play with fast speedling expand + banelings for defence.
I will stop proxy hatching, insted i am going to play Speedling expand with probably a little roach push if he FFE.
I will play 15 hatch first against terran, and if he makes 6+ helion i will do an early roach push to clear them off.
This are all the build orders I know now, as I said before I would love to practice a list of standard macro BOs. So if you have one please PM.

Thanks for the support and for helping me out

sorry bro but I am protoss! Can't really tell you any specific builds..

but good on you for having an open mindset.. you will do great

just download replays of progamers and write down the timings.. if you have money to ivest in your play even consider getting coaching from PiG or other great sea zergs. But yea the timings is the most important things.. when u watch a replay take down heaps of notes and then execute it over and over again. GL!
