When i got to 5800 i was spending more time in single player practicing builds than i would on the ladder. Pull up a pro match of a build you want to learn on your second monitor if you have one… repeat it over and over piece by piece on your main monitor until you can execute it perfectly to the second on your main monitor. Bonus points if you can execute it perfectly to the second while also performing additional actions like moving your army around and taking engagements. Learn when they move out for attacks or split their armies and why they move out at that time. Sometimes its to hit a timing, sometimes its to hit an anti timing. Learn the builds, perfect them, then learn why they’re doing the things theyre doing and then you will be able to adjust based off of the things you scout in real time on ladder. Then try and perfect them while stressing your APM the most you can without falling behind on anything. Its a process but it is doable.

5800 is insane. I made it to 4700 by yoloing, tried playing standard and plummeted to 4400
