There is no such thing as cheese in 2v2. Cloaked banshees wouldn't even be cheese in 1v1. Cannon blocking a ramp in 1v1 isn't cheese, because there's no risk of it not working when scouted since it's meant to be scouted. Well if he never scouts it, then I think he has a problem.

It depends on how you rush for banshees if its cheese or not. If you sac your whole econ to get the banshees out faster and are depending on them not rushing you, then yes I consider it cheese. If you have the opportunity to transition into a mid game situation because you delayed the banshees a little to get more econ and marines its not cheese.

I really dont know what to consider the pylon and cannon block vs zerg. It has clear transitions out, and is actually a very econ oriented build. But it might just be the gayest build in SC2 so that could qualify it as cheese

Cheese is just a really short way of saying 'I was too dumb to scout, too stupid too adapt and even if I did, I probably lacked the mechanical skill to win anyway'

The result is all that matters. A W is a W is a W, whether it involved 1 base or 6 bases. Who cares if it's cheese?

Honestly the only thing I think as protoss when I see TZ is "8 rax 8 pool." Nothing else really comes close to it on the cheese scale for the match up.

Nah, I'm just man enough accept that losses are my own fault instead of blaming it on stupid things like 'MY OPPONENT RUSHED VS MY MACRO BUILD, CHEATER CHEATER CHEATER!!!!'

random team doesn't mean shit when you turtle up and rush banshees, point is it's an all in strat, if we had detection ready at that extremely early point (which is obviously unlikely) it was over, that's cheese to me. rolling the dice praying for a free win.

Oh man the people who lost made TL accounts to continue the 'argument' and nerdrage?



Who's paca btw? is he blue? everybody else in that 2v2 has clear and obvious tl names. or is he just some random super BM troll that popped up?

i just did a quick search, and didn't find anything but this, and it doesnt really define cheese the way most of us do. for the general definition, would a 6factory all-in tvp count as cheese? would 1fact 1port count as cheese? would ayumi?

i dont really know any sc2 equivalents lol (except 4gate i think), but would these be cheesy or just gay. or neither because you're so pro and can hold them off with ease >.>

Yeah, I actually registered a year ago and posted since to make it seem like I was a legit TL user anticipating this moment

Or maybe you're just too dense to check join date, who knows!

I don't know what constitutes nerd rage to you, if defending a stance that sacrificing your economy on one attack that is instantly shut down by detection is nerd rage.. Nah, sounds like you're just a little slow. No offense!

All is well, me and Tyrio have reconciled, we flipped coins together from sunset to sunrise, it was a magnificent night
I hope to do it again sometime

Yeah, anything that rushes for fast invisible units that aren't obs with the aim of killing them because they didn't scout you and your whole strategy depends on that is pretty cheesy.

Pylon / cannon blocking is pretty cheesy too.
