Welcome! ^^
This thread is to connect prospective 1v1 diamond league players for some practice, evaluation and criticism.

When posting, please include your; region server, Battle.net ID, character code and race. The information will be important to those who look for specific match-up practice. This thread will also include, Hall of Fame for those who have reached the diamond league, and this week's Most Improved.
Thanks for those who participate and I hope to see many "gg" worthy plays. The Most Improved Player is not a decision made by myself, but rather the community as I will keep my ears (or my inbox^^) open for players discussing a certain player or two of their as-of-late improvements. These improvements can include, but are not limited to: ladder standings, unit-management (micro), economy management (macro), and noteworthy strategy.

To those thinking this is another "practice partner" thread, Road to Diamond is a community based thread of all ranks to; help motivate players that have reached a recent slump, connect players that are looking to have real-time analysis of their strategy and gameplay, or distinguish players purely looking for recognition and fans/followers through "gg"-worthy plays and critical/helpful analysis.
Road to Diamond community is for players with the initiative to reach out to numerous other players and host/participate in the "King of the Hill" style match-ups with 2-4 Spectators. During the matches Spectators will discuss/evaluate/criticize thus providing real-time analysis which will follow-up with post-game analysis to discuss with the other participating players. This has proven to be a very effective method as many pro/amateur diamond league players also participate in the form of "King of the Hill" games and I encourage everyone to participate in this manner.

As for those who feel lost on what to discuss in the post-game analysis, here are some of the things I pay attention to:
Build order and the efficiency of the build order
Food supply and worker count(day9 what up!)
Effective/noneffective push timings
Scouting proficiency
Unit composition
Please feel free to ask for help if you are unaware of the Spectator feature that Blizzard has developed that is available for use in custom game matches on all maps.
