So, I had been struggling to get out of silver for months now. Watching replays, playing when I can, paying for guides and coaches. Today when I played for my season 4 placement, I got demoted all the way back down to rank 75, when before I was rank 10. I'm beginning to wonder if there's not just something wrong with me as a person that is inherently incapable of being good at this game.
After 500 wins, and working on my mechanics, I can confidently say that I don't generally loose to not building enough drones. I loose to shit like phoenixes picking off all my overlords, rows of stalkers I can't kill no matter how many zerglings and upgrades I get. I've played against zergs that consistently get more shit out and have a stronger economy no matter how much I try to only build units when I scout an attack or tech switch. I die to marine spam, no matter how many fungals, or banelings, or mutas I make.
I'm not getting utterly rolled over. I'm just not winning. I don't know what to do. I feel terrible for dedicating so much time to something and never seeing any improvement. I hear that there are little kids that make it into masters league, and it makes me feel like I may be developing some kind of inferiority complex.
