You can overplay in the opening, which if the opponent doesn't answer with a strong move will result in an almost certain loss. You can also invade everywhere and just hope that you will live, which is also very similar to a cheese. | ||

There is only one opening in chess that is cheese and that's Scholar's mate, an attack so obviously telegraphed it will only work versus a beginner. | ||

But it's really not very much like chess. It's like blindfolded chess where the blindfold sometimes comes off except that there's no turns and you can move stuff as fast as you can physically do it. It's like Starcraft, that's basically it. If you were going to choose non-video games it's like, the most apt description would be Poker + Chess + some sort of game where you draw with one hand and play piano with the other. | ||

You go mayfair against guy who goes old kent road, you're going to have a bad time ^_^ Also, people feel very strongly about which piece they play as, even though it's the player skill that determines the game. Some people get downright viscious, battleship against wheelbarrow? nerd rage inc There's a strong element of chance and snowballing ensures that mistakes are punished. | ||

SC2 is actually a lot like a war game. Wait, it is a war game. And has as much in common with a real war as most of war games. | ||

Maybe the famous 19point trick play, or any variety of low pincers off invading a 5-3 opening. Also there are many trick plays in challenging joseki variations like the famous one used against shusaku in the taisha variation. As for my reply, sc2 is much more like go in that your strategy can adapt and change in much more dynamic ways than in chess. Overall though, the games are very different although they share some similarities that are shared amongst most strategy games. (direction of play, positioning, timing, etc.) | ||
