I got placed into Bronze back when I didn't know what the hell I was doing, don't think I'll ever get out.
I generally have great macro (better than a lot of diamond players I have seen) as a Protoss I'm always disciplined into probes + pylon production, upgrades and base saturation. However my micro, building placement and unit composition generally completely sucks, and I get beat by every cheese possible even if I scout it.
I usually like to watch whoever out of Whitera, Huk or Axslav is streaming, I try to watch the tournaments but cannot stand many of the casters.
do you use hotkeys? I'm only in silver but I just started and I'm realizing now that it's hard for me to manage my economy/expansion while maintaining my units and combating with them at the same time if i just use my mouse so I'm trying to get use to playing with hotkeys.

I use it a little but when i get involved in a battle i kind of forget about it, that's kinda what i mean, in mid-late game I don't build as many units as I should/can because I'm so involved with the battles. other than that I followed the build orders on teamliquid really well?
Took a jaunt over to Sweden for the weekend to see Dreamhack, fantastic event. Wish I brought a better camera, only took very few photos using my phone.
Horrible lo-res picture of me and EgPuma
Monster and Genius playing Fifa on the Xbox, which I had to set up for them as they couldnt speak enough English to work the Menus

Amazing tournament, well set up obviously a lot of money and work went into it and it showed.
Thorzain was so happy to win, really nice to see. He really dominated the series from what I saw.
I thought Nerchio might do a bit better. His ZvZ is really good and thought he'd make it past monster, but he lost on some coinflips. He needs more experience at LANs and I think team acer needs to send their players out to america for the MLG's and IPL's.
Ret's win over Genius was awesome as well. I kind of assumed Genius would just win it all.
Speaking of Koreans, Puma continues to struggle a bit at LAN's, something I'm not used to.
Terrible results in his groups at IPL 4 and DH. I really like his play and I hope he picks it up.
Love StarCraft 2, but i refuse to play it online anymore...
There is just to many god damn ultra 1337 no-life 10 hours a day playing kicking your butt 24-7 players, it is extremly stressful, constant pressure, every second counts........ i accidentaly with luck won a couple of games in a row at the start and am now stuck in the best league, where i keep getting murdered, im basically just padding those peoples stats there... lol...
..and i am way to competitive, this game is forcing me to either go in über no-life-mode and spend entire days and nights so i can be good enough to compete like i want to....or quit this shit and go have a blast in Mass Effect / Skyrim / BattleField 3 or something instead... i would do the former only if i got payed to do it so i chose the latter...
I've played d2 since like 2002...Been a cycle of playing/ quiting. I saw how d3 looked and i'm really disapointed. D2 was so freaking original and awesome at the time but now it looks just like War craft...I started d2 again and probably will still play it over d3...
