Plateau or ceiling? Can't move up Master ranks any farther!

Plateau or ceiling? Can't move up Master ranks any farther!
Maybe consider this a request for advanced tips.

I first placed in gifted, quickly moved into master, but cannot advance past #5-10 in my master league for the last hundred or so wins. I study my replays and forum replays, including supertitan matches.

Few issues I see with my game:
Still cannot master a map or two (I usually dominate small maps but can struggle with wide open maps).
Still play mostly round by round versus seeing many moves ahead with a long-term strategy.
Probably too defensive versus smartly hard charging.

Any tips on breaking through? Any advanced techniques that I must learn?

Can you post a replay of yours where you thought, "I just don't know where I went wrong?"

(How the hell do I punctuate that sentence? I want an exclamation point for the quotation, but the whole thing needs a question mark. "Wrong!"? is wrong. "Wrong?!" doesn't seem right. I think the way I did it is the only way.)

its already in a question form so just put an exclamtion point.
"I just don't know where I went wrong!"

No that can't be. The overall sentence is a question.

i think its more of a declarative sentence.

Jaxx, can you yourself find any problems with your play in that match?
