I don´t know why so many people complain about cheese and all ins, they have always existed, will always exist and it was no different in BW. Some people seem to get PTSD when they get attacked early lol You comparing 2 saturated bases timing attack with a 11/11 bunker rush? | ||

You're playing against someone that is notably one of the strongest late game zergs in the world... why wouldn't you do a cheesy build that either wins you the game, or at worst breaks you even with your opponent? It's retarded to hate on TheStC. Just because he did that doesn't mean he is a trash player that can't play in the lategame (quite the opposite, he is a beast in the late game and very well balanced in all 3 MUs). You do what it takes to win. As long as Blizzard doesn't think of a proper way to prevent 2 rax cheese, Terrans will use it... and rightfully so. | ||

thats one of the biggest maps in the game. Idra shouldv went on the xel naga tower when he was scouting. also, stc got cross positions that means hes going to get scouted second on a huge map, which is a big deal. | ||

Lucky did the exact same thing vs. Ret: aggressive cheese/pressure opening first game, greedy macro opening second game. It's elementary meta-gaming. | ||

He likes late game vZ. Idra didn't scout the 2 rax until the bunker was being placed down. Only hope he had is to not allow the bunkers at the choke, but when they went down, it was over | ||

Can you honestly say seeing a terran cheese out a zerg with two proxied 11/11 rax is exciting? No, in fact its even more disrespectful to the community to cheese than bming or quitting without gg. Zerg can easily win 2 rax with pool first then hatch, because they can pull far more eco when terran invest in 11/11 rax | ||

Though technically its blind, He's playing vs IdrA on TD It's 95% chance of a hatch first build. He did he research on his opponent and did a build he knew could get him a quick win. I don't understand the hate on him for it? | ||

You obviously have no idea what you're talking about. So you are telling me that instead of hatch first you can't build a few lings, stop the scv and then use your queen to make like 7 drones at once? You don't even have the 1st base saturated when you make your second, don't understand the mindset | ||

The same reason terrans always bunker pressure losira because he always lose his hatch. And its the reason most people stopped trying to rush nestea because he destroys it. Sorry but Idra can't handle early pressure well, and he goes into rage/stress mode whenever it happens. | ||

I have seen some good zerg sacked their hatch and still win, 300 minerals is not that really huge, and terran also has to cut a lot of scv to do that 11/11 rax, so zerg is not that far behind when they sacked the natural, they can double expand later. STC was following up by locking IdrA in his main. It's one thing if he salvaged his bunkers and went home. But he could sit outside of IdrA's main w/ those bunkers and make raid into his main w/ the marines and until he has banelings (which wouldn't be soon), he'd be stuck there. | ||
