Ase re, ti mou les.

Den itan cheese... eleos....

Guy goes FE what 1 gate dts? and you guys are all slagging on him.

Jinro has a problem with his early game, and choya does a harass and Jinro GG's out.

And some how one of the nicest people in the world is to blame....

Gosh, you can always save up 400 minerals and expand, it doesn't mean anything.

It was absolutely cheese, when you warp in 3 DTs it's completely all in. There was no way choya could have protected his "expansion", it was just part of the deception.


It would have been cheese if Choya somehow pulled his probes with the attack or something. If the DTs failed utterly, he could have tried to get a wall or at least a few cannons at his natural and build up more zealots/stalkers before transitioning into whatever. Going fast DTs and attacking with them is not cheese - it's just a form of pressure.


If DTs failed choya would be dead with zero chance of recovery.

Going fast 3 DTs is absolutely cheese. There is a DT expand build that's somewhat stable - but this isn't anywhere close to that.

Because it wasn't a DT expand.

But it was Choya already had his nexus built.

Yeah, it was flimsy. Jinro won the macro game convincingly and then Choya went for cheesy rushes two games in a row. If Jinro had a scan saved up or made an engineering bay he would have held it off and the game would have gone on.


Not sure that a scan would've been enough in game 3... Choya just has to split DTs and Jinro is still screwed. Really needed an engineering bay there. Guess hindsight is always great but if you're in his shoes with no idea what's going on, a lot tougher call.


If he had scanned the DT's as they were coming up his lower ramp he could have killed them. Granted that would take pretty amazing reaction time but still.

if you see double gas and get no other scouting info, never a bad idea to just get an engineering bay and plant at least one turret at the natural and in main. Preparation for dts is kinda like car insurance...invest before the event happens and it will help tremendously, don't invest and suffer the consequences. Regardless, jinro fought well

All you geniuses that think that was a premature GG why don't you enlighten us and tell us how to win a game against 3 spread dts no scan and no E-bay.
Jaedong gives me a deep resonance.

the dts are what makes it safe to expand lol.



Yeah, but Toss still has the dirty units.

DT's and Voidrays so dirty imo xd >

If it doesn't come from a Gateway or Robo it's cheese, duh.

What is with all these maddies calling Choyas strats cheesy? Even his Game 2 strat was late game oriented, he got the single voidray and stalkers to contain then expanded and started phoenix production. He just outplayed Jinro in the 2nd and 3rd games.

Sorry man feel better

isnt that the second time you said that to him?

i love how much hate choya is getting and how everyone is still worshipping jinro
you scout 2 gas early on, no more gateways or an expo, and he just expands with no more scouting and no detection at all.....

from that, choya deserved the win imo

cuz if it's not something super standard like 3 gate pressure expand or gate robo expand it must be some type of hyper cheese apparently.


actually DT expand is super standard in korea. huk/mc does it all the time

Cheese is a pejorative expression which refers to a strategy that is highly unconventional and designed to take one's opponent by surprise. In general, cheese is hard to beat if not scouted but easy to defeat if it is scouted.


DT openings are not "highly unconventional" and they are only hard to defend against if you become too mule greedy which was exactly the case here.

DTs are no more chesse than a terran opening cloaked banshees...

It's a usual DT-expand....

And the DTs give you time, there is no way you get attacked when they are out. And even if you can just make Archons.

It is in no way an all-in.

If you don't make detection, you will have a 50% chance of losing any game.

Choya did a 1gate expand DIRECTLY into dt's, he had like 2 units if jinro had used ANY kind of pressure choya wouldve just died. Choya took a huuuge risk and it paid of. but that had nothing to do with skill O.O


lol you assume choya would not react if he scouted jinro trying to pressure. These are pros they know what the possibilities are.

he just made a mule and would have to wait until he got 50 energy again...and by then he had 1 DT for both bases and 1 for the army.
