It's in the title, I've been losing a lot lately. Especially in PvZ, eaten alive by all those zerglings, hydralisk, lurkers, blabla. And In PvP, it's either I get 2 gate proxied, or I get 2 gate FE'd (meaning, he makes like 6 zeals, scares me long enough for him to make a nexus and a couple of cannons.) Damn I suck, the only thing that makes me happy now, is that I'm already healed (I had the flu) and I haven't lost a single PvT game since getting sick. Which is cool, but come on. Losing 90% of your every blasted PvZ sucks right? I'm sure you guys know how I feel.
And to those cheese P players, will you ever stop being gay and play straight up? Geez, it's no wonder you guys never improve.

FML, since my flu, I'm absent for 1 whole week at school, which was one of the most important since a lot of things had to be done those days, and now my iCCup record sucks, cuz some people are being gay.

Anyway, I just had to let it all out. I'm really getting frustrated. And thanks to those guys who play straight up against me. GG. Kthxbye

2 gate FE isn't cheese. 2 gate proxy might be regarded cheese by some (it's almost standard on 2 player maps imo) but the game usually proceeds normally if both players are at same skill level. Stop blaming everything on cheese and take your losses like a man.

Stop playing for like a day or two, or just decrease the amount you play.

This is how I usually get through my slumps.

I win like 5-10 in a row, followed by consecutive losses. Get used to it ;p

This post pretty much summed it all.

Take a break and start playing when you feel better. Playing if you're sick makes you sloppy and you won't be able to focus in the times you really need to.

I'd love to take a break, but tom is the iCCuP nation tourney for the Philippines, and I'd love to practice, I'm just praying that my opponents are T, since I'm 15-0 since my return, but 1-14 vs Z, and 9-10 vs P.

Imagine how boring sc would be if every game was a straight up macro play with typical builds and nothing to surprise your opponent.

cheese is what keeps sc exciting.

Not surprised you're doing best against Terrans, they hardly ever cheese in PvT. I haven't seen a single BBS in my last 100 PvTs. Okay maybe one but I was the terran . I want to practice against it but no one seems to do it any more.

Also Terrans are less likely to do anything tricky, if they take SCVs off gas 99% of the time they will fast expo. They'll always place it somewhere you can see with your first few goons too.

The problem with T is that it has plenty of cheesey options with proxy fact, biomech rushes, fast drops but they're just weak in general compared to Z/P cheese.
No I'm never serious.

2fac is very common at the B ranks, and it's very difficult to stop a terran with good micro... Not really cheese, but I disagree that 1 fac expo is the norm.

Well in that case they usually help you out by not taking their SCVs off gas. Usually they do 2fact or starport both of which aren't really very cheesey.

Man, more than cheese, I hate people who play extremely defensively, like just taking expansions everywhere and placing units like lurkers, spores, sunkens on ramps, and then just sitting and massing behind mass defense.

Im usually aggressive player, and sometimes all my attacks start failing, even though I'm at the top of tech tree. Its just frustrating when you're doing all the effort to make a decent attack and ends up losing a 1 hour+ game =(
God bless the cheesers, man.
