My brother has won something like 25 of his last 27 (with a disconnect) and is facing masters now and is still in plat. He was a diamond and only ended up in plat because they forced him to redo his placement games because he hadn't played on NA for a long time.
The system is a little bit weird sometimes.
maybe i can gtake ur place since my name was not in the bracket for some unknown reasons >_>
Are you losing to plats? Your ladder rank usually doesn't necessarily reflect your true skill. You can play a ton of games and farm points to get to the top of it. Your mmr is what your true rank is and it is hidden from you. I believe Blizzard also has messed with it this season so you get a wide range of players (IDR).

I have lost to plats before, including today in a long ZvZ. But overall I beat the plats I face

Diamond Ladder > Legend of Dragoon > GAF Night
you probably have diamond MMR and are just getting plats very close to a promotion.

This is what makes stargate play so good in PvP. He scouts my robo without ever seeing an immortal, collosus or even a robo bay and blindly goes double robo collosus. He then never scouts my army composition and keeps building colos. The first time he sees my voids is when they are killing his army.
Players don't even bother scouting in pvp anymore. This is top 8 diamond btw.

Wait is that you? Pretty awesome replay. Did you know who he was before the game?
who is that guy? he looks like a dumb loser with that beard and balding ass 24 yo forehead.
Nope. I just checked the 3 guys on TL who always cannon rush to see who was using a barcode name afterwards.
I've lost to it before where you think they'll transition out of it but they keep cannon rushing. Its very easy to lose if they get up 3-6 cannons at once. I posted because the BM was funny after he tries cannoning like 6 times.
Also I forgot to say but lol at your replay, sending out the voidrays alone to kill his army; sup? lol
But then BM
Hes some dude that was featured on the D9D for cannon rushing upto GM players (but not being in GM himself) as far as I understand.

Your MMR must be pretty high to be facing him if he is facing people like Idra.
Actually i send the voids by themselves on purpose when they have that little anti air. Otherwise my small ground army gets vaporised. I did BM but it's a long story i was just having some fun with some friends, kinda got caught up in the moment.
Some of his cannon rushes are amazing. As in i think he has actually broken certain maps in certain positions. They look unbeatable.

hahaha awesome
his opponent isnt using the same account from the idra games.
whats really interesting here is that striek apparetly cannon rushes PvP regularly.

Just that map. It has imba spot. I started proxy gating the shit outta PvP on other maps because I really hate the MU.
i dont think you have many protoss to worry about in your bracket anyway. -_-

Come on man, the carriers are calling you.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
That was frikkin' ridiculous. It's like the cannon cheese would never end!
Took two watches before I saw it.
hahahahaha
he will be playing against me, don't worry panda.
lol i build overseers now, you're gged by default.
the game will be over by time i need to snipe the greater spire
you're right, you rarely survive the first roach wave anyway, i usually have to let up to get a decent macro game out of you.
that's not what the 2 last games said. And if you put a decent macro map, you are going to lose, we all know you can't macro properly
hard to learn when you can only practice it by carrying people.
Agree, makes it so hard to inject larvae.
he's been known to insta gg when he sees large armies
He's French and he surrenders easily? You should have seen that coming.
And he smells!

You should get him kicked off twitch.tv for his offensive language. hurry post on TL and reddit.
FXO all the sudden alot worse. Leenock needs to step it up again (lolzerg)
Pancakes

Oh and don't forget to email sponsors with all your false outrage.

He is a nobody. Not worth the trouble. CombatEx is also far better at cannon rushing.

Must not be against you since that would require a macro zerg.
