You have to realize this strategy works due to the empty space in the 3rd, which completely bypass the wallin. In normal situation, the nydus would be in the main base, in which case you should be able to scout it immediately and pull probes to kill it. If he nydus outside the main he will have to go through the wall and that gives you time to prepare against it.


I mentioned it would be forcing the strategy...it happens a lot.

I think it does. The presence of cheese is extremely important to the forming of the meta game. Plus cheese seems to be one of the more creative forms of strategies.


Thank you.

Having Keen means no Tails nor Guinea Pig since DRG will no doubt be the last MVP standing.

which makes playing bumblebee even more puzzling


Bumblebee is on Prime.


hahah whoops


No problem. He's relatively unknown so he's an easy player to mix up.

MVP's Lineup has been relatively typical they opened with Vampire who I'm not familiar with, but opening with one of your less well known players makes total sense to me.

But after that it was Noblesse then Genius and now Keen with DRG finishing. Basically all of their Code S or former Code S players.

I hope Keen can take BB down, cause DRG doesnt seem to have a very good ZvZ.


I'd have to disagree and say probably only Nestea/Losira have better ZvZ than DRG, I expected Tails --> DRG though for the 2 finishers. Keen has the best ceremonies ever though and is a cutey! He does however choke fairly often.

Cmon DRG!!!!!!!!!!

cheese=\= agressive play
if somehow genius scouted that nydus he would've won right there, but since he didn't, he lost


if he scouted it, he would only have probes to kill the nydus, and the distance alone, he wouldn't of killed it in time.

I think it does. The presence of cheese is extremely important to the forming of the meta game. Plus cheese seems to be one of the more creative forms of strategies.

Cheese is typically defined as "builds that rely (completely) on surprise to be effective". Bunker rushes, as annoying as they are, aren't cheese. 1-1-1 all-ins aren't cheese, even if you pull every single SCV - because they rely on how fucking crazy good the aggression is, not the surprise. 2 base fast lair nydus is cheese, because if they see it coming and pull probes, it's completely neutralized. On the other hand, you can still use the nydus for things like expansion management if the nydus assault fails, so it's cheese without being all-in.

Sorry, but "cheese" and "all-in" both get thrown around a lot without a great deal of accuracy.

If he scouted it, he would've spread units, made pylons to have vision of the base and I can guarantee you that genius would've easily held it unless he derped pretty hard. Seriously, I'm not saying it wasn't legit play, but it WAS a cheese, accept it.

Haven't seen a zerg play on this map in awhile, curious to see how he approaches it.
