I never understood this reasoning. Why does the game count affect how good of an idea it is to cheese?

Yeah, that wasn't a good idea.

The thing is, I don't think most players change the builds they use based on what results of previous games of the day...they've probably got a build practiced for the map and matchup that they'll use no matter what happens.

The general idea is if you only need 1 game to win a series that your opponent has extra stress on him. If you get a solid cheese against him he might already be flustered or taking a slight risk with their own build to try to make sure the series continues if they feel their standard play isn't as strong as yours.

I'm sure they do, based on the reception/results of their previous strategy in the previous games in the same series (of that day). The mindgame is not just a per-game thing.

I'd bet most players don't, although I'm sure several do. The way most pro players practice is through repeating the same build on the same map for a certain match. In my uninformed view I don't think this is the best way, but that's the way things are done.

if that were the case though (that your standard play is stronger) why not continue to play standard?

Plus there's no need to mention SC2 in these forum sections, just like there's no reason to mention BW in those forums sections.
Fantasy with a very forward rax before depot.
