Endurance




Hey guys!

I know I haven't been too faithful to this, but I'm making sure that I allot some time every other day for a post.

So big news Stephano won the IPL3! Huge upset because everyone expected the Korean players to take the tourney. mainly just because they are notoriously good players. 



For those of yous who don't know what that its a tournament that was was hosted at Caesars Atlantic City, USA. The total prize pool was worth $100,000 with the following break down.

1st place: $30,000
2nd place: $12,000
3rd place: 8,000
4th place: 6,000
5th-8th place: $3,000
9th-16th place: $2,000
17th-32nd place: $1,000

a lot of high level players were invited and as you can see high finishers left with some amount of prize money.


Watching a few of the games motivated me to start playing again and I'm happy to say that I made myself play 5 games today. even though I went 1-4 and I'm still motivated to keep on going and trying to improve.

I decided that I'm going to make myself play 5 games each day. [rather than win 5]
and make myself improve and focus on mechanics more than anything else.

what I mean by mechanics is constantly scouting, making probes, spending money, building units.
all together and keeping a cool head while doing it.

It's natural to get upset and want to let someone have it when they won doing stupid things (got cannon rushed twice - _ -)

but when I really thought about it I should have scouted him and followed his probe, looking out for proxy pylons.

I'm not going to let it get to me and just chalk it up as something to improve on!

thanks for reading guys. I'll try to cover events in more depth and details, still trying to figure out what voice to take when writing this ha ha.
