I cheesed Kas

This is my first Blog

I just cheesed Kas on ladder. And I feel extremely guilty.

Kas has been one of my favorite players for a long time, and I have learned more from him than anyone. I stole tons of his builds and watched hundreds of his replays. I just love that his style is so safe, macro focused, and solid. He is literally my idol in Starcraft, as lame as that might sound.

I went from silver league a long time ago, to GM, just by watching players like him, and learning the game how its meant to be played. I am not a cheeser, and I always try to improve my standard game. I've played Kas a couple of times before, on ladder and in some tournaments, and he always beat me without any problems - he is an amazing player and a role model for many, while I am a nobody.

I lost a couple of dumb games today, and barely won some extremely frustrating TvTs where my opponent played bad and I got lucky. The moment I saw Delta Quadrant and EmpireKas on my loading screen I felt like this will be another dumb game. Kas is much better than me; I hate this map, and never play it. I often leave the game when I get it, similarly to when I get zerg or protoss on close positions. I don't find these games to be useful or fun, and nobody plays these maps in tournaments anyway. I had a friend standing over me, watching me play, so I stayed in the game.

I almost completely forgot I was playing Kas, and put down 4 hidden rax and started stim. I didn't care if there was a banshee, blue-flame or siege push comming - I knew I would lost to those, I just wanted to get the game over with.

I got very lucky. Kas happened to be making a build with which it is extremely hard to stop early bio all ins. His scan missed my hidden rax by 1 pixel, and his bunker was 90% when half of my scvs and all marines with stim reached his natural.

It was a waste of my mine, but most importantly his time. I don't know what I was thinking to be honest. I always wanted to find a way to thank Kas for all the builds and strategies I stole, and his tournament wins that also made me happy. But I just did the most stupid thing I could have.

Pff i just needed to vent about my own stupidity :S

It's okay dude, you don't need to feel guilty, it's not like you murdered his dog or something. You showed that his build is weak against fast bio pressure, and hopefully he will account for that better.

Don't feel bad about cheesing someone! It's just a shame about not having an epic replay of Kas you can watch over and over again.

Don't feel so bad. It means you're a much better person than I expected when I clicked this thread. At least you're much more mature than someone who would come in and say "I cheesed Kas BOOM ROASTED PROGAMER SCHMOGAMER".

People saying its a brag post, You must be kidding me.

I wrote it here, cause the moment I messaged him to apologize after the game, he told me to stfu and went offline. I feel really sorry, and guilty. I'm a player myself, and I get mad at people who do stuff like I did too. It was a very rare occasion for me to cheese, and against the worst player it could have happened.

I just needed to get it out somehow, and was hoping he might stumble upon it

I'm glad you cheesed him mate, there's nobody everyone should hate more than kas. Solid MMM 1a stim every game, boring and predictable, yet he has a stupidly high winrate.

with the amount of ladder Kas plays he probably gets cheesed and all in'd almost all the time anyway so I doubt he even cares ;p

EsX_Raptor, or RaptorX?

RaptorX isn't famous but 100% of his blogs are in some way related to SC, while EsX_Raptor is famous for some hilarious blog entries, a few of which are sort of brag blogs in disguise.

Do not worry Gomas I am sure he is not too upset about it.


Also did you manage to find out who stole your account or you still accusing me? It is really annoying that I went to see you to meet you. You know... And then I get that. Anyways I hope you have the right one and you think a bit different about me than you did then.

think of it this way: maybe one day he will be high up in a tournament and his opponent opens similarly to yours, but because of this experience he prepares for it better, and gets a win.

or maybe he uses THIS build to take a crucial win.

Who knows.

what is wrong with you...?

for the OP, as other's have said, i'm sure he'll not be prepared for this eventuality in the future. Kas, like white-ra, practices by massing ladder games. 90% of them are likely to be very similar, it's a good thing you probably showed him something abnormal which he'll now get ready for.

that sounds like a GG. in GM anything is acceptable and he will learn to scout that better for sure. and will win if he does. cheese never wins if the other knows its coming,

once again GG and make him think you will do it again and again

90% watching it 8% talking about it and 2% playing it - sc2

Hey, I cheesed kas too!
I met him on scrap station.
He would remember.
A build is not a guess, an estimation or a hunch, a feeling, or a foolish intuition. A build is a dependable, unwavering, unarguably accurate, portrayer of your ambition.

I think everyone would do that if they faced a pro and know that they wouldn't be able to win. I know I would pull the dirtiest, cheesiest, two-rax SCV all in, super-mega-ultra BIT BY BIT PRIME styled cheese.

Of course it was, that's why I laughed so hard at it. But of course if someone like me or worse someone with 50 posts said it I'd think they deserved a temp ban. Mods have it rough sometimes.

Still it was hilarious :D

Why would you ever leave against a zerg when you get close posistions against them? As a terran player every time I get close positions on a game versus zerg I just smile like a chesire cat.

He'll live and learn, that's what ladders for anyways imo. Gj on beating someone you look up to, cheese or not you deserved the win and he'll watch the rep and won't let it beat him again so you both kinda win.
