Frankly, I make it a point not to cheese. I try to practice my standard play as much as possible, because it's so much more satisfying to stop a n00b with 3 control groups of zealots, goons, and maybe a reaver or two than to win with like 5 zealots. (insert 1a2a3a joke here) Hey, it worked for iloveoov... though granted i have done a proxy double robo on one of my friends before... hehehe. | ||

Its basically all up to how well Terran can micro his marines and if he sends in a couple of scvs or not. Makes it for a pretty intense game if your opponent is good and knows what to do. | ||

For example, many progamers 2 gate proxy on blue storm PvP and PvT, they expect to be scouted and countered, but also expect to deal moderate to large damage to opponents economy while building up their own economy/tech to get ahead. Cheesing is actually pretty difficult if you aren't comfortable with it, the only tip is to cheese more and analyze on how make it failsafe. Most cheeses, especially with protoss are supposed to be failsafe against almost any build. | ||

IT JUST DOES vs P it's amazing, because 2 cannons doesn't defend well against 3 control groups of lings >.> and if you transition into hydra fast enough, you can just drone up and expand like sin, and most C level players can't deal with it. | ||

Try it out like last time. With a touchpad. Yes, and seriously, the first thing on iccup I always do is to check for proxy gates/raxx or 5-7 pool. | ||

Strange, because the only time in 200+ iccup games I have been cheesed was a 5pool. Ive never had a terran or a toss cheese me. (I play toss) | ||

(I play toss) You sir walk with angels on your shoulders, or lag extremely bad  .I think I've had about 1/6 games cheese on iccup in the last year. So I would say out of 3k games, 450-500 of cheese seems about right. More cheese at D/D+ and C+/B- en at C-/C imo. | ||

(I play toss) Are you sure you play the same iccup as everyone else? Or is it that you cheesed every time during those 199 games before encountering someone who actually cheesed before you even got the chance (that person in turn was on his 199th game of cheese)? Circle of evil. . . | ||

I am slightly picky when choosing opponents though. If I say hi in the pre-game chat and they don't say anything back (even gl hf gogo is fine) I kick them. | ||
