If he didn't pull that many scvs, it would've been impossible to make a bunker with the dragoons and probes pulled. Some of you need to realize that pulling workers to aid in a timing attack does not mean it's cheese | ||

Like I said, if terran is wholeheartedly set on punishing and chooses not to BR, this is the next best punishment, unless you've alternative suggestions. But yeah, good game lol, phew cheer leading was tiring | ||

Or is this some brightline you just made up? logic? i've been here for several years and have never seen anyone object to early aggression that involved ten workers being called cheese, and i've regularly seen aggression of this type called cheesy. i don't think there's any reason that it being in response to something, or it being strategically sensible, would make it not cheese. that said, i don't think it's a particularly important or meaningful term and i'm not sure why everyone seems to be flipping out about it. | ||

You can't lump all early aggression together like that no matter how many years you've been here. This sort of attack is very different from the rofl build | ||

Pardon me, but even though i cheered for Stars as well, i ll have to agree that Bunker Rush is pretty much the standard response when you scouted opponent going Nexus First. The amount of SCVs brought was mostly likely due to him scouting 2x Gateways from Shy, thus he needed that much Meat Shield. If Shy had withdrawn his probes to main, and continued normally, those SCVs would have gone back to Last's main and mine soon enough. | ||

I'd have to criticize your perception over the years then as you have several objecting over just the last few pages... I don't mind what you think of it but don't openly call it cheese without your thoughts...if you want to dodge the question, perfectly fine - I agree it's not worth flipping out over but don't arbitrarily attribute a strategic punishment as cheese without any reason... It's not even about being right or wrong, please understand. I mean no offense, but it's just about netizen etiquette for me. lololol | ||

This sort of attack is very different from the rofl build why can't i? it's how i've seen the term used. if you can point me to a definition of cheese that would exclude it, i'm happy to read it, but as i understand it it's what the word means. by the way, the standard definitions like "if it works you win, if not you lose" and "one way or another the game is over in a few minutes" etc. don't actually work either. there have definitely been games that started 4pool, 8rax etc. that ended up with the cheese doing a certain amount of damage and then getting cleared up, and with rough equalization and normal play after that. | ||
