So, how's it going?
Well, ever since the beginning of the season, I really feel like I have been playing at a higher level than last season.
I won my placement match-- I went to gold, and my opponent went to platinum. Since then, I've pulled a 60% win rate against overwhelmingly platinum opponents.
The hidden MMR system is very sensitive-- I've felt challenged in almost all of my games recently. The displayed MMR and ranking, though, is terribly unresponsive to sudden changes in skill. I've done the improving I need to do to make platinum. The game just needs to catch up.
So, where can I improve?
Here are my breakdowns by race:
PvZ: 69%
PvT: 66%
PvP: 40%
So, PvP. It doesn't play to my strengths. It requires smooth execution, and teching or expanding gets punished. I've had more success since I started defaulting to the defensive 4-gate, and I think I'll stick with that until the patch.
Also, again:
Games under 7 minutes: 1-9 (10%)
Games over 7 minutes: 29-11 (71%)
This is my game plan-- I play standard opening that push into macro games, because I think that's the best way to improve. If I can survive cheese, I win.
