Hey everyone, with the hugh explosion this forum had on Starcraft 2, I thought we should probably keep talking about it lol. I'm just interested in what all of your usernames, ranks, and leagues you are.

My username: RedMarine
League: Platinum 1v1 and 2v2
I started in bronze league and in less than a week they had me in platinum.
It's been awhile since I've played because I'm busy with work, but I was rank 3 platinum at a time.

Anyone else? Looking forward to maybe playing some of you.

Lol I hear your pain I really do.

However - I actually like getting matched above my level.

Two reasons, first, pretty much every time I lose against a Gold or Plat (I'm Silver), I really learn something important about my play. When I win or lose against someone of equal or lower ability, I don't learn anything I didn't already know.

Second, I know -if- I manage to win against a Gold or Plat player, I score big big points wheeee!

Thirdly, if you do lose, you only lose like 2 points. lol

NoInfo - Diamond 1v1, 2v2, 3v3.

I play this game too much.

I wouldn't mind it so much if it only happened now and then, but currently about 80-90% of my games are against people 2-3 leagues higher than me.

Getting wasted once is a learning experience.

Getting wasted every game begins to detract from the experience :p

Having said that, I'm not showing any signs of giving up yet :D

Here's my info, diamond in the only league that matters when it comes to judging skill; 1v1. (not that it's the best way to judge it.)

Don't be such a snob. I've run into plenty of 6 pools and have swam through an ocean of 4 gates in the Diamond league. Diamonds and Plats honestly aren't much different when it comes to skill level....


Oh.

Name: Lawliet
1v1: Diamond
2v2: Platinum
3v3: Copper? Gold? I honestly don't remember

Rank.... uhhh.... like 50 ish. Little less than 800 points if I recall correctly.

1v1 Bronze. Sigh. I'm routinely beating silvers, though, so maybe I'll get bumped. Then get my tail kicked. Hard.
