Okay, so a lot of you guys seem stumped on how to get better. I've got your answer.
You lack the killer instinct.
If movies, TV and anime have taught me anything, its that people only win when they have a BURNING DESIRE to win. I tell this to my adjutant, Bossalot, all the time. Any game where Boss loses, I'll chastise him and ask him what went wrong, and he'll KNOW. He just knows I'm talking about it.
See, if you don't have more motivation than your opponent, you'll never be able to beat them. Let's take an example.
I don't know who this faggot is, but he obviously doesn't have any fighting spirit. He's getting beaten the fuck up. See the fear in his eyes? People with fighting spirit DON'T HAVE FEAR. They only have burning hatred for their enemy for some generic reason. This faggot obviously hasn't got far.
Now let's take that example and round it back to STARCRAFT. Did you recognize that faggot in the picture? It could be you.
Are you the kind of guy who goes out of his way to get turrets early because you're afraid of being cheesed?
Do you have certain people you think you can 'never win against' because they're 'better' than you?
If you answered yes to either of those questions, you could be just the kind of faggot this article is for.
I'm here to tell you the key to winning games. Its not macro. Its not micro. Its not even general skill at the game at all. Its FIGHTING SPIRIT.
Let's take a more successful example.
"But Beagle" you whine like a little girly faggot, "Scout isn't always successful. I've killed tons of scouts.'
Exactly. You've killed people pretending to be scout. But the real Scout, as seen in the Meet the Scout video, has never died. Why is that?
I'll tell you why.
BECAUSE HE HAS FUCKING FIGHTING SPIRIT JUST LOOK AT IT GODDAMN
LOOK IN HIS EYES AND SEE THE BURNING HATRED FOR THE ENEMY
HE COULD BEAT A TRAIN TO DEATH WITH THAT BAT AND YOU KNOW IT
Look at Heavy.
LOOK AT HIM.
At that point, he has no fighting spirit. He wants to be free. He wants to win. He wants his Sandvich. Want, want, want, no need. He has no fighting spirit. Only WANTING spirit.
Faggots want. Real winners NEED to win. They crave it.
This is a Marine. The Marine has a gun, making him a ranged attacker.
With the proper micro, a Marine could theoretically take out an entire enemy group of Zerglings.
In fact, pros can kill solo lurkers with only 3 Marines.
How does that make you feel?
Did you say 'Wow, I wish I could do that?'
IF SO YOU ARE A FAGGOT
If you said something like, 'YES, I WILL HARNESS THE RAW POWER OF THIS MARINE AND HIS GUN TO EXACT MY PAINFUL REVENGE UPON MY BITTER ENEMY AND HIS PITIFUL ARMY' then you should stop reading because you are READY.
You know, I could go on and on about fighting spirit and how you'll never win without it but I'm lazy so I'm just going to sum it up with more pictures.
This is a successful person. He is so angry at his bitter rival that his emotions have manifested in physical form. He could beat you with an Overlord. He would make the Overlord get in the way of your clicking so much that you would be unable to build units to kill it and would actually QUIT THE GAME because you are too distraught to continue. This is because he has the WILL to use that Overlord to WIN. He knows he must win, he WILL win no matter the cost, because he is badass.
This is the guy who just came back after you expo'd the ENTIRE MAP like a faggot without killing him, and he suddenly burst out in your main with like 20 firebats and a valk and you were like wtf and then you were like oh god I can't keep up and you quit because you weren't having fun anymore.
This guy was having fun the whole time. Despite the horrible odds against him, the thought of defeat never crossed his mind. He was virtually masturbating to the thought of how he was about to break that contain and kick your ass.
It's pretty obvious who is fucked here. That dog is fucked. You know why? Because that horse is fucking angry. "But the horse is bigger" you whine. BULLSHIT.
If the dog was as ANGRY AS THAT it would be one of those funny pictures where the bigass horse is RUNNING AWAY from some little pissed-off terrier.
I think the bottom line here is simple. If you don't think - no, if you KNOW you CAN'T lose, you won't lose. And you'll be that little terrier, kicking the ass of that guy who was 'too good for you to beat'.
And if you have problems unlocking that 'will to win' in a trivial matter like a video game, just imagine that the guy you're playing fucked your girlfriend against her will. What kind of faggot wouldn't win against that asshole? Don't be a faggot. You have to win no matter the cost.
