trek some people do in wgtour, never met anyone who cheesed in tourney. saying "many" cheese vs random is definitely wrong though, as I random in every single game and I've died vs cheese maybe 5 games in the last 1000. ;(

Let me guess: you've played kingdom a total of 5 times?

I don't feel I have to practice any more to master random than I did when I played 4 matchups. (pvz pvt pvr (which occasionally became pvp) and zvp)

in fact I play way less now.
and yeah, going 10-0 is much harder with random (no player could ever get good enough at every matchup to do as well as nada is doing right now). but for a player who would normally go 1-2 while picking race, going 2-1 with random is easier than going 2-1 while picking race, as long as he practices enough with all races to be "very very good". (something most progamers would become after 150-300 games practice with their "bad" races, or maybe I have too high hopes regarding their talent. )

Eri you are forgetting people that know that you are better than they are and the only way to win is by cheesing (macia most popular example ) that is why i try to safe every game, especially vs people i know i usually beat when i comes to midgame

sure infinity, but that doesn't apply to ongamenet.. if someone honestly doesn't believe he has a shot at playing it straight out then he has nothing to do in a korean league.

elky's doomed. Wont get enough practice to keep up with progamers. Look at ChRh, he couldnt handle playing 9 matchups because he couldnt keep up with the other pro's

in that ygclan interview of chrh, chrh says that he only switched to terran because he thought terran was the funnest race, not because of he thought they were strong. he also said he might go back to playing both terran and toss because his fans like watching his PvTs.

i think that more so than practicing all 9 matchups, its practicing all 9 matchups for all the different maps. if they played they same 2-3 maps all the time, then there might be more random players. however, since they're changing maps all the time in the different leagues, you cant practice everything

Elky is faking. He's going to make his opponent practise all their matchups and he'll just pick Terran when he gets in. You can't trust a Frenchy.
