And what did you change re: zvt? You were crushing t's as of ~2 weeks ago so I'm just wondering if something changed or you just got bored crushing with the previous build.
If I were full time, I'd easily be low end GM. I think my ceiling, without a ton more work, is probably around there. I'm limited by my focus issues.
I'm pretty sure if I played just a little more than I did now and didn't ladder tired/**** around, I could make GM next season with 2-3 weeks of solid practice cleaning up leaks.
That said, the reason I lose most often is cause I just worked an 8 hour day + had school + have other stuff + sleep 4 hours a night so I play tired, stressed, menatlly worn out, etc. So I just play for fun/relaxation mostly. If I took it too seriously, I'd get too mad considering how grumpy I am when I'm tired/stressed haha.
My ZvT was terrible as of 2 weeks ago, but that's cause the ling/bling build was just losing its effectiveness. Lots of Zs were starting to go pure ling/bling off 3 base, people were adjusting and I didn't have the micro. Plus, infestor/ling is just a lot better. Ever since I've started going infestor ling into 3 base hive + ultra (or BL if it calls for it) into mass expanding I've been crushing souls AS LONG AS I can survive the early game drops/pressure/hellions (I've been opening roach to play super safe as infestor/ling is really cost effective and you can play a bit more conservatively... blings not so cost effective vs good micro off creep).
