how can people complain about cheese?
Serious tournament -> playing against the best player there -> being 1-1 -> map is delta with even closest positions -> take advantage of it!

Everything else would have been absolutely stupid. If there is something to blame it is either Idra going for hatch first on delta or the size of the map.
Select did everything 100% right here!! Just as Naz did before. Why should people let Idra go into macro mode if they dont have to??? Do you think they are there to provide you with 30 minute games? NO. They want to win this whole thing!

I dunno why people complain, I personally find cheese sometimes really interesting to watch, it makes some intense games.

Select played better over the whole Bo3 imo(he could've won g2 without that one faildrop), but fanboys will always find something to complain.

Sewi's right, Select should take advantage of his advantage. It's just like last night between Stork and Jaedong + Show Spoiler +
January made the right decision to send out Stork on the heavily imba towards Protoss map, and Stork read the metagame correctly to think Jaedong would go hatch first since Protoss can get a big economy so easily on the map, so Stork went with the old-school version of 4 warp gate rush and Jaedong didn't fare too much better that Idra.

Exactly. I can see why its frustrating to lose to it while laddering (ie learning, bo1 etc). But nonstandard games are awesome in series.

Really really shitty way to get eliminated for Idra, The abusive blink stalker play on Kula's getting him in the loser bracket in the first place.. there is a reason that map has been deleted from the map pool.
And then Select showing he can't win straight up abusing free bunkers and marine spam, sigh.

Its a shame Idra doesn't play better so he wont die to cheeses!

Tbh idra is awesome against cheese, just got a bit to confident after that 2nd game or something, opening FE on DQ against select, which is very aggressive bio player... Quite risky to say the least.

I think the issue is a lot of people have become comfortable with what is possible and they forget that being greedy can still get you killed. Slowing down the rax doesn't stop heavy rax play. IdrA assumed he could get a FE every game, and that's simply not the case. Early all ins are only strong if you don't account for them in your strategy.

Starcraft 2 north american tournaments are the peak of dissapointment. Only a few good games and the rest is cheese or all in that could be done by plat level players. Rubbish.

fairweather fan much?

sometimes the guy you cheer for loses. if you jump ship because he's losing you suck as a fan.

if it turns out the guy you cheer for does something really bad then sure. but losing? I mean more like your guy turns out to be rigging matches or is a racist or something.


pretty sure he meant he has to find a zerg left in the tournament to root for not overall favourite player, but way to overeact there champ.

also people should stop complaining about that game, SeleCT is an amazing player and that "cheese" was the best way to avoid IdrA overrunning him later in the game which will inevitably happen when youre a terran vs such an amazing zerg. I feel bad that IdrA is out but I'm glad SeleCT is still in it because he's always fun to watch.

people are going all-in against idra and he knows it yet he remains resilient with the zerg FE. It's his fault.

This isn't a cheese strategy. I'm talking about something Idra can do to force Select to play defensively THAT early in the match. That way you really can say that Select outplayed Idra. Idra could have used his own cheese. But I dont think Zerg can walk up into a Terran or Protoss base and deny them the only thing that makes them strong.

i love a well-executed cheese, and I agree that it makes the game more interesting

"cheese" "Two-base banelings", does not compute.
