00:12:43 - sTaGaming to ALL: i was profesional wc3 player
00:12:45 - sTaGaming to ALL: for ages


hahaha right :D

anyway would have been kind of funny if it wasnt for the bm every game (even if your opponent doesnt bm) so i stopped watching after 3-4 replays, just too embarassing

Cheese is powerful stuff. We've seen atleast two threads about mass marines cheeses to get GM. Question is, what can Protoss do?

Are you serious???

PvT: 3 gate void ray, 4 gate, 3 gate immortal, blink stalker, proxy 2 gate

Theres some cheese for you that will win 60% of your games.

Was possible to get to B on iccup with simple cheeses?


I reached B by playing only ZvZ Medusa 9 hatch 9 pool 9 gas. Cheesing was very powerful tbh, really reminded me on 4 gate in beta really. Someone who's played the game for a week can demolish players with cheese like 4 pool that have been playing for 6 months at C-/D+ level with a solid 50% winrate on smaller maps like python.

He did not, he just quit the game when the zerg was typing. After the game he replied to his question. Good manners.

6-pool really doesn't get a lot of credit as being a skilled build. And yes, the OP is the fucking king of cheese. It's official.
I hate when people compare SC2 and rochambeu. One race isn't fucking supposed to counter another one. | Protoss isn't OP. Their units on the other hand....

Well, as long as you have fun playing the game I guess. I can't say I approve of the BM, but it's good to have some cheesers on the ladder so that people can get practice and experience playing against all styles of play.

Theres some cheese for you that will win 60% of your games.

With the exception of VR all in and proxy two gate you're just naming pushes. Blink stalkers aren't cheese, they're a timing. 3 gate immortal isn't cheese its a timing. I'm so tired of this attitude that any protoss timing is a cheesy all-in. Most of these can be expanded behind (even 4 gate) and easily lead to a macro game. Not the same as pulling all your workers. They can also be held if properly scouted.

Mass marine builds can also be expanded behind, what's your point? Just because you can behind behind it doesn't mean its not cheese, because if your 3 gate immortal or blink stalker push fails, you pretty much lose.

Might have been a great post, but, you write like an illiterate five year old. It was painful to read, if you're going to put all the time and effort of writing this up and attaching replays, at least make it presentable. Other than that there is a lot of useful information here, I see you have put time into developing these strategies and I thank you for sharing them.

Also, although it is cool you beat Stephano and all, but please don't share replays where the other play makes an absurdly late pool and instantly GG's upon seeing your 6p.

nice write up.

could you please tell me more of drone stacking the closest minerals? as in the actual keys/commands to execute? have been wondering for sometimes.

p.s to help make it easier to read the strats, just make a new paragraph (with a 1 line spacing) every 4-5 lines.

This reminds me of someone who said "this is f****** 6pool, what you expect?" after a failed attempt to 6pool in a custom game. =]
I have always found it hard to execute, its nice to know that there are lots of techniques behind it.
