Gold coaching
Gold is the gateway to Platinum — mechanics are often serviceable, but round wins depend on economy, trade timing, and whether your team can retake or close post-plants. Coaches refine the habits that separate Gold from Plat.
Practical focus areas for ranked players — start with debriefs, escalate to a coach when habits won't stick.
Gold players lose rounds on coordination gaps — pushing without info, force-buying as a team without a plan, or leaving planters alone. Coaches review comms-layer decisions and spacing on execs, not just individual duels.
Compare five debriefs before booking. If economy mistakes or post-plant deaths repeat, that is your coaching agenda. Gold climbs often come from fixing one macro leak, not new mechanics.
