Title: What is everyone's motivation?
Post by: SaveMeNow on May 08, 2018, 09:20:08 am
What is your motivation on playing fastest? Especially if you lose a lot, how do you keep up the positive attitude? I know a lot of people say watch replays and learn but that just only one way to make yourself keep playing and do better. So my main question is, how do you keep a good attitude and keep playing? I like to play sc and the challenge of 1 on1 or 2on2 but if it gets too hard, than it keeps my mood down. Any advice?

If you're having a bad time, try to find opponents you can beat to get your spirits up again. Another thing is to go back to the basic build orders and strategies and trying to improve on small parts one at a time. It gives you small recognizable bits you can look back at and see improvement in.

Another thing is to get second opinions and advice on your games and specific situations. At times you'll get feedback that (re-)affirms your opinions. At times being right about something lets you know that you're on the right track.

And maybe most important, talk with other people. Not the BM kind of talk some people engage in but honest discussion and conversations about either game-play or unrelated topics.

Watch streams to improve, replays doesnt teach you a shit.
Anyone knows the basic builds or what to do in specific situations of the game.
Most people not capable to implement these things, you wont learn it from replay you have to see how its done.

There are plenty streamers on afreeca, their game play is a few steps ahead of our community but yea their stream is annoyin

improve is the best way to motivate youreself

In case you want some links, allow me to provide you some:

On the right in the "About" section you can find a couple more links to some good Korean fastest players. Navigate through through their videos using the search function. Search for 1:1 or 1vs1 or UGL. Knowing what sequences they go through in specific situations can prove to be quite useful.
