So as I'm sure most of you know I was gone for some time due to hardware failures. I'm back now and I've found that I've forgotten pretty much everything I knew about this game. My muscle memory is coming back slowly but until I'm where I was before my "hiatus" I refuse to play on the ladder. I would love to play against another human to get my skills back; the computers just aren't cutting it. If anyone wants to play please(!) PM me or post in here. I'm Biohazard#638 on Battle.Net. Before my computer died I was mid Platinum but as of right now I'd rate my play at high Silver or low Gold. I welcome everyone for some friendly skirmishes. If you're Plat+ and want to participate in my forced evolution, I'd really appreciate it. And if you're Gold or below and looking to improve on something I'd be more than happy to help (my knowledge of the game hasn't atrophied, only my ability to play it). :3

I'm available all day. Just message me if you want to play. ^-^

I'm always online and down to play so yeah. I would *highly* suggest that you search ladder anyway, there is not a single downside I can see about ever hitting the find match button, other than that losing ladder matches can feel worse than losing custom games (but why?)

Probably because you have more to lose in the ladder. As for why I wont until I feel ready again, I finally made Platinum again. I am not losing it this time if I can help it.

I totally would if I could, but being without proper equipment myself, I must regretfully decline. However, I would actually suggest against playing on the ladder until you're comfortable against ai's or other people you know, because you don't want to get stuck in your league, unable to be promoted.

lol I'd actually prefer getting stuck in my league. xD
I made Plat back in January but got hit some major grade A bullshit and got demoted back to Gold an hour later. I only just finally got back into Plat the beginning of October. So getting stuck there would make me happy for the time being. xD

if what you're aiming for is an increase in your raw skill, nothing will train you better than ladder.

if you want to have a nice icon and a low loss count to ease your mind, then there are other options ;P

but objectively speaking, you will do nothing but improve every day you play ladder.

C'mon man. That was posted a month ago. I've definitely been laddering in that time. xD

I've been playing a lot the past month or so, and been getting a lot better. On my good days where I have a lot of free time and actually log in early, I easily get 20-30+ games in the day. My normal recently has been 5-10 though. (Playing a lot really helps to get better =3 )

Either way, I'm nearing diamond (constantly being placed against them and 1st in my plat division), and I'd be willing to play with you when we're both on. My late game pvz sucks kinda bad, and I still have some issues reading certain openers against zerg. So it could help both of us out.

Well, I want to get better lol. Just straight up playing on the ladder is a good way to get better for now until I have dedicated practice partners lol.

I'm not going to get good enough for real tournaments if I don't practice a lot XD. Playing that many games though, really really helped me improve. Granted the first couple days were rough if I lost a lot, but once I started to get better at analyzing what happened/what went wrong in my games, losing usually isn't that big of a deal anymore. Just helps me find flaws in my game better than if I had just won.
