I think its awesome that you're so passionate about the game that you're willing to put in so much time for it and i'm just gonna contribute a few of my thoughts.
Like someone previously pointed out, there's no point practicing non stop if you're gonna keep doing the same (wrong) things over and over again.
Secondly, blindly watching replays is not going to help, without a key amount of knowledge and mechanics of the game you're not gonna be able to appreciate the extremely subtle timings that sometimes just makes what the pros do look magical.
Judging from the last 25 games you've played, you're had a super long win streak and now you're winning points are in the ~10 range, which means you're matched with players the computer terms evenly matched. Check out what rank/rating they are to give yourself a rough gauge, you should definitely be hitting diamond soon if you keep going at it. And sometimes it just helps to play one matchup, so find a practice partner and keep trying!
Next is to play a variety of strats, and you should in particular play strats that you aren't good at. Don't shut your mind off to certain strats and just play the whole range of them to be a better player. If you keep playing a strat you're good at, you might get into trouble when the next patch isn't in favour of your race. However if you keep plugging at it and have good basics and mechanics, you'll benefit in the long run, so all the best ,and may we hope to see you up on the top 200 list someday soon!

dude basically the only advantage of getting a korean account would be to be able to play the top dogs on their ladder, like what ice is doing to practice
however, for most of us mortals, practising on our own ladders should be enough until you are literally top of it, like say top 200, then maybe you'll benefit from the added exposure to the korean pros, for all you know, korean mortals are similar to the SEA and NA mortals. so keep plugging at it, once you get to top 200, maybe you can consider
your best bet right now is to find practice partners and keep playing!

hey can anyone help me? i have paid fathuntress on monday. but till now he hasnt played my acc. am i cheated? i tried talking to him but he doesnt really reply me when i asked him to play me acc...
he means to get the best practise you have to play on the kr server
only way to do that is to have a korean ssn and buy their version of sc2
some pple on ebay have been selling it too with the ssns for anyone interested.
3 top players from sea already have kr accts atm.
Your question has already been answered yet youve still asked several times over =/

haha. i think its really funny. paying someone to play for u.
i actually play on my friends accounts when i'm free just for kicks.
if you that desperate and he's not free, i don't mind doing a few free of charge when i'm free. its just like playing a game.
i'm nowhere near good, but if diamond is all you want, then its not really difficult. i played my friend's acct to diamond too. so far, what i noticed is: its much easier for new accounts to hit diamond, be it sea or na it always takes under 30 games(even if i mess up the placement matches with cheese). for old accounts, its insanely hard. the only time i tried my friend's sea acct, it took 80 games over like a period of a month from just-promoted-silver to diamond.
people are so nice on this forum so im just going to go out and say it you should not buy a korean account because you want to be pro if u cant get into diamond by yourself.
