Let's talk about cheesing. Personally, I hate cheesing because it's all that people do against me. Few weeks back when I still played terran almost no one cheesed me but now that I've switched over to zerg it's all I have to face.. Most of this is from protoss that just proxy 2 gate me everytime.
I'm starting to feel like that the EU ladder consists of nothing but cheesing retards that seriously don't care about anything else but being the top 1 diamond player as fast as possible and therefore don't bother learning any viable strategy but instead go with cheesing every single match which is just plain stupid..

I want to know your opinion about cheesing! (sorry for bad english

)

And no, this is not a QQ thread about cheesing, I just want to hear everyone's opinion about it

Learn how to defend the various kinds of cheeses and you'll be happy when you scout proxy gateways because it's a free win. I have very safe PvAll builds that allows me to shut down most every kind of cheese, to the point where I barely lose to it anymore.

There isn't really anything to discuss.

This has been discussed to death, but anyway.

I think cheesing is a strat like any other, it takes as much skill defending it as executing it, though the defender has the disadvantage. It might be annoying, it might be noobish - but it's something even pros do.( hello tester, hello STC).

I get really mad if i get cheesed though, but i'm more mad at myself than at the other guy, countering cheese is all micro and i love to micro, if somebody beats me at it i'm a sad panda

Offtopic, how come none of the players cheesed at IEM? Don't say mass reaper etc, i'm talking early game cheese. I've been watching lot's of STC cheeses and they're are darn impressive to watch, he basicly wins everytime with his awesome micro.
