1 I'm going to break from everyone above and say that the best way to rank up quickly is just to watch the header for 1v1 offers and take every one that's not a handicap match. 1 I'm going to break from everyone above and say that the best way to rank up quickly is just to watch the header for 1v1 offers and take every one that's not a handicap match.

4 As far as rapid improvement to ability to win, I got from brown level to gold level in 1v1s very quickly by practicing eco openings vs. Novice AI. But I was stopping the game a couple minutes in every time, assessing my performance, and resetting to fix my shortcomings, and it took less than an hour of this before I could steamroll my erstwhile peers by having a full 20 metal and energy per second going into my factory while they were still e-stalling or stuck on an unassisted factory. I then got punished for matchmaking as a gold with no practice in the late game; this kind of quick fix doesn't build a complete foundation. 4 As far as rapid improvement to ability to win, I got from brown level to gold level in 1v1s very quickly by practicing eco openings vs. Novice AI.
