Sorry if I shouldn't be bumping this or something.. But has anyone got any tips for a solid silver player? I've got some pretty decent strategic map knowledge/micro-ing, but my builds are a little flimsy and a bit flawed..

Macro gets you from bronze to platinum, just focus on using all your resources and building a ton of units. You can look up some build orders on liquidpedia or something if you want. But make sure your mechanics are good.
What race do you play? Each race has different mechanics which reward different kinds of gameplay.

Shit, I didn't know people played this. I recall Hxcbbqimo saying he did somewhere but I never thought it was a thread. I'm playing protoss and never really got into RTS until recently. I got to rank 3 bronze (I'm so MLG) before my exams hit and have been meaning to play ever since. I heard they were considering changing Hellbats, did they ever end up doing that?

They haven't changed the hellbats yet, but people get better and better at making it do less damage to their mineral line. In TvT your whole playstyle is developed around hellbat drops.

Yeah I've been watching a lot more than I've been playing and some of the drop play is insane in tournaments. I need to get back into the swing of things sooner or later, I'm fortunate enough that in bronze people don't think hellbats are good/don't have enough co-ordination or multi-tasking to be able to drop much whilst focusing on macro. That's gonna be another thing to deal with altogether.
