- I had not been enjoying playing lately but then this ladder session changed everything! The win streak is incredible but more than that it reminded me that it's okay to strip things back to the basics and enjoy improving again

Stay tuned for part 2 tomorrow! Game 10 was wild | HERE IT IS ua-cam.com/video/fPMYs3z5L14/v-deo.html
I really like this style of video. It’s cool to see how you were feeing during the game compared to your analysis in review.
So nice to see caster/ex pros comentate their own replays showing the personal reflectkon process that goes under the radar
it was one of your streams that taught me is not all about winning, its about enjoying more your play and getting better, one "vs" at time, it was a turning point in my passion for SC, I'm thankful for that
I like to make my games as crazy as possible, yeah I lose a lot but I think we all have more fun when I push people out of their comfort zone
@@chrislangton4662 Totally valid stuff! glhf!!
Idon't know. i love to play but i only could enjoy the wins. I tried many times to engage less competitive and enjoy the game by it self. But only it works at games, were i have the feeling of beeing at an even level of skill and it was no utter shoot cheese, i can't handle.
Pig, huge fan of your content! Love the insight and honest and humble self-critiques. Gives such great insight into the thinking and level of play at the higher levels!
Appreciate you! Hoping for the best for you always!❤
Awesome video PiG! It’s cool to see how you can feel discouragement like the rest of us noobs of the ladder :P but it’s great seeing how you focus yourself to get back into the zone. Hope it keeps up man! 🎉
PIG’s demeanor screams aggravated. The stress 😂
Needs to relax? We all look like that tho!?;)
I love the honesty! Seriously this is a big deal for all of us plats and diamonds looking at the Greats wondering if they're even human or not so cool to see that you get just as tilted as I do and we all have the power to deal with it lol
I love to see it man. Im having a resurgence in my passion for music after having to sell my drums and end my drum lesson studio during COVID just to be able to buy food and not go broke.
Almost the same situation too except for me it was going through the motions of trying to practice every so often and telling friends what I do despite me not having done it in awhile. Something hit me and I told myself - stop telling people youre a musician and go back and do the thing.
Very happy you found your passion again and heres to many more years of SC2 casting, gaming and content creating! 🍻❣
Trist is exactly The kind of content i love, moooar please 😊 and so happy for your Windows streak
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO! I swear people would be so much happier if they followed this mindset :)
I like this. Neuro’s samurai mode videos are similar, but I confess I often skip the first part until I get to the analysis. Here I just get the juicy part right away.
Great Vid!! Answered a few questions, mainly that you're OZ.. (originally Zerg..;) and that it doesn't matter where you are on the ladder there's no true winning streak unless you're Serral. Luv it!!
Pig I honestly think your choas management is great. Your a great player buddy. I hope you start enjoying the game again mate.
I was also struggling a lot with SC2, especially my frustration at the game as I have to do so many things to get a win
But recently, I started taking the approach of "I don't care if I lose, I wanna try and make this work." And I stopped SCV scouting because if they wanna ravager all in me, that's fine. I am here to practice, not try hard. If I lose, I will get an easier practice opponent next time.
My MMR was irrelevant to me because I know if I try hard, I can hit 4k, but I want to sit comfortably at 4k so I am doing various builds for fun and to practice working on getting to certain situations and adjusting my weaknesses
It is better for the community when content creators do not burn them selves. out stay focused on maintaining yourself there is no PiG without you
Great video. Really interesting analysis and that you comment on your own state of mind and how yoy strategised.
Positioning and army control affect the outcome by tens of thousands of minerals. I wouldn't sweat the small stuff. Dark does just fine while getting supply blocked on occasion. Put your focus on what matters and that's positioning & control.
bro haha you look like a fighter pilot in the middle of a harsh dog fight xD so tense and stiff made me laugh. but great video
The timing of this video is incredible. I have lately started to give up on ladder. I am hardstuck master 3 and I just can't improve. I have a positive win rate vs Z and T but I am just so bad vs protoss. I just don't enjoy the matchup even when I win, I feel like I am not even playing starcraft. It really swings my mood. Lately I have been lucky and got to Masters 2 because I got basically 7 Zergs and 5 Terrans and maybe 1 protoss, but I feel like thats as far as I can go. I don't know.
Glad to see you are enjoying your games though
Well, are you going into replays and analyze their build order and what you could've done to win? Scout here, do your reaction, then jump into practice mode and actually do it. Then if you don't understand, ask people on Harstem's, Pig's and Competitive Starcraft 2 discords. That seems to be the recipe forever. I only got to D2 in 2023 but I did it in under 400 games total in life in a few weeks following Pig's B2GM and going into replays when I encountered a new strategy that I haven't played against yet, so I'd play the replay and understand what I should've done and at what point. Mostly it was 9000 different rushes that players do, but it helped a lot to very quickly progress and get to D2 with 90 APM.
Stopped playing since then but it works and I'm still fun of the series and watch videos.
Have the same problem, specifically against skytoss toss.
89% winrate vs zerg
47% winrate vs terrain
11% winrate vs protoss
My rules vs toss that have helped slightly are as follows.
1. Early lair in all protoss games (exception being early cheese)
2. When lair is done immediately overseer scout every game
3. During midgame squeeze out 20 zerglings and hotkey them. Then during any major engagement just hotkey and move the zerglings into the mainbase. Chances are at Diamond/low masters it's left open.
@@KulaGGin Oh I've tried, but they can just do 20 different builds and you have to respect every single one of them. And if you don't and get behind they just do whatever they want. Expanding non stop, cannons and batteries everywhere, storm, mass zelot runbys, carriers, archons, immortals and yeh good luck with that
@@liampett1313 Skytoss is not that big of a problem if you learn to do a good queen drop with roaches at 6/7 minutes. You can end the game pretty fast. Like if he opens up with a voidray you know he is gonna either do some kind of all in or go skytoss. And that's good for either of them. But ehm yeah ZvP is so bad. Let's keep balancing the game around serral though, while in regional tournaments there like 10 protoss, 3 terrans and 3 Zergs. I guess when there gonna be only protoss in tournaments they will win something
I like all you videos before watching them cause i know it'll be quality.
This is a cute video Pig, you can tell how much you enjoyed this session. Thanks for sharing ❤
CC first, triple CC into 6 minute THOR drop is absolute madness
Nice games PiG, it was becouse of you that i comeback to play SC2!!
"The difference between success and failure rests on the edge of a sharp knife, and we will inevitably suffer both victory and defeat throughout our competitive careers. As a result, we need to understand the best way to approach both triumph and disaster when they arrive on the scene.
Otherwise, the emotional roller coaster, the ups, and downs, the thrill of coming out on top and the pain of coming up short will wreak havoc on our competitive career and future performances.
"
I love how stressed out you are during the game
People forget that it is COSMIC WAR happening on the other side of the universe right there
I know it's so easy to burn yourself out on something that's supposed to be fun (I do it all the time) so I'm happy you got your groove back! It's hard to let go and just focus on the game instead of trying to win,l but if you can do that it's great!
Pig’s butt stuff killed me
Love your content PIG, met you in Singapore for Dreamhack (i think that was the tournament) with my buddy Alt Cure (eddy).. Haven't played SC2 since WoL, still getting used to the 12 workers at the start
Might have beeb IEM
Much love Pig! When is the new Bronze to GM series gonna start?
Awesome games.. thx!
YES BABY, ZERG ALL THE WAY! THE LOVE IS REAL!
This is what i've noticed when i used to play league of legends and other games. When i focused on improving instead of winning i was able to climb and win easily, which is kinda paradoxical 🤣
from a 2250 mmr player to a 5060 mmr player: cheer up buckaroo, your doing great!
For when the One Great Scorer comes to mark against your name, He writes not that you won or lost, but how you played the game!” - Grantland Rice
Fun games to watch!
I was always embarrassed by my gamer rage but my buddy who had an insane deployment (got his leg blown off in Afghanistan) was telling me how in gold league he floats his building when he loses. LOL. something about this game is incredibly tilting in a way that no other game I’ve played is
someone should tell Pig that he always looks like that
Do more of these ❤
Is 15 H 15 pool better ? Than doing the build without an extractor trick ?
I love this
aaah I see what you did there nicely done Pig you're soo good at this, at this point haha
I hit a hard block at 4.5k for like 2 years. Couldnt seem to improve, couldnt get anywhere, same thing.
Stopped mass laddering, took 3 of the hours I laddered and put them into either watching streams, watchign replays, or just generally thinking about the game made a huge differences..
2 months later I was at 4.7, 3 months after that i was at 5k. There is a big balance that you have to find for yourself in the types of training you do, became fun all over again.
you should add a heartbeat monitor
Haha when you find the flow. You need to put your knowledge into the application. I believe in you, and all content creators, you have the knowledge, well, ya never know.. maybe when you lose tournaments you then join the casters;)? Thatd be cool. Smh - your knowledge of the players and game is suntzu level, and if.. heh u got potential bruv.
Haha im at 2300 and cant win single game. But people keep leaving so often that i cant drop any further. Its great fun
Been watching you play some amazing zerg games the last month of so, Mr. pig. Some technical, manoeuvring, close, high tech macro games, and it's been very inspiring and a pleasure. To be honest tho, was never a big fan of your random play. I remember your Protoss as quit basic, solid but nothing special and predictable. And your Terran as painfully bad and hard to watch :D Weirdly panicky and desperate and reactionary and low tech and half baked and never set up properly and falling apart, like you try to do 100 things, but end up doing 100 things badly instead of 50 things well. My take anyway. Good to see you really pwning up dem pros with zerg. keep it up :D
I played during WoL and HotS but left way before LoV. When I play the AI now it's rough. Like.. I don't lose, obviously, but I am constantly around 100 apm, most games I am below that, I get supply blocked, I stock up on minerals and gas, I mess up the simplest build order and don't know what to do or how to adapt to anything.
I basically win every game because the extreme AI is bad. It doesn't feel natural at all anymore... what can I do? I don't dare playing ladder as I am concerned I might just be so disappointed in myself I never start the game again.
play ladder and get good, cant get better by playing AI as you're not being flamed by the opponent for sucking
what he said but with the added caveat of picking and learning one default build that includes a timing attack and a transition plan. There's no need to reinvent the wheel and a ton of stupid mistakes and learning moments can be skipped/acquire second hand
Dont worry play ladder. Most gold players now have lower apm lol. My 12 year old brother plays lader and he knows nothing about the game has like 50 apm and somhow wins as zerg in bronze he does not even know what is inject xd and his only strat is massing upgrades cuz he wants his soldiers to be strongest. When i started half year ago playing i had like 90 apm now i have like 180 most time and im low dimond and i just mass ling bane. There is a giant group of people in sc2 who dont know what they doing and just have fun you can beat them and learn.
*Zerg is my original race* ...... cm on man i liked you. Don''t ruin it
Hi. i am the lowest form of twitch bait, pleasure's mine. good to make it in the youtubes! 1:06:41
Why do I keep hearing 2 of you
