Sadly, I really like when I get to watch Idra play his style. When he loses using that style, I usually REALLY enjoy those games because they are games with 2 REALLY good players. Unfortunately, most of the time we see Idra lost to players that really aren't better than he is... but pulled off some abusive cheese.

Idra can't really NOT be a macro player, because that is the only thing that really makes him great. It's really tough to root for a player that you know will never play in interesting games because people always all-in him

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


Cheese keeps people honest, it is the reason you can't 14 hatch on close positions on small maps. It is a good thing for the game.


This + Keeping cheese out of the game would make it "20 minute without attack please, this is a game were you have to build a base, etc," game

Love cheesy play from time to time. If every game would be 20 minutes+ macro games, i dont think many people would have fun watching them all day/night :p



If you were to play a 25 minute MACRO game, the game would be boring, it would essentially be, make units, make more units then your opponent and you would win.

Cheese allows us to have micro from both players, where some of the true skill is shown.

indeed not been that excited watching a series as i did with select vs idra

Zergs have to FE. 1 base play is basically all-in.


But you can pool before hatch and be safer.

People like aggression and cheese from time to time. But where complaints arise is that every game IdrA plays in a foreigner tournament (hell, arguably GSL to) is him getting cheesed. At a certain point you just want to see a standard match.


Why play standard when you know what hes gonna do?


I'm not blaming players for cheesing. They know they'll probably lose in a macro game against IdrA. I hold no ill will towards the players who do this; but I do find the games largely boring as a spectator since it's a foregone conclusion that there will be cheese.

Especially it s really to relate from this game to the "state of the game" while there is a 61 minute game going on in another series. It's good to see that T can still do a strong early aggression.
I want to be with those who share secret things or else alone.

Zergs have to FE. 1 base play is basically all-in.

You have to get a second base but not necessarily before pool.


I consider hatchery 1 minute after pool to be fast expanding too.

GOGO NO ROBO. Colossi are sooo boring to watch, so I hope the game allows non-colossi play to be successful.

Why is there never a cross position metal/LT?

90% of the goddamn games today have been 1 or 2 base all in win/losses...

Oh well. Zerg should probably "just learn to play better" again. Show us how it's done Liquid zergies! And Jinro, I want to see more Jinro!


Get a pool before he gets his expansion. Just because 14 hatch is "standard" against terran doesn't make it greedy.
