          Can't these be condensed into tips that can be shown during the loading screen?

            Regarding: putting this onto the loading screen: Not everyone wants to try to improve to 2k level. Most people don't want to be told that it's their own fault they lose or that they're being lazy or that they're playing the game wrong.

              Obviously some selective rewriting needs to go in, but I am not a speechwriter.

                  @Pl4t_ Why ask what the community can do for you when you can act on what you can do for the community? 🙂

                    I am the student not the teacher. I can't write my own school book. I wouldn't need to go to school then.

                            Still great advice! I would only add one point which is, find like minded people to play with. If you are looking to improve on Ladder (TMM now) or Custom x vs x games and find that you are unable to perform good enough to win on your own, make some friends and queue together because at the end of the day, even if you do everything perfectly, you are playing a team game.
                            As Picard once said: "It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose." Sometimes your opponent is just better. Use those times to learn from them.

                              @arma473 another thing to keep in mind is that some people mostly play this game against friends, and do not care about their score for anything besides bragging rights.
