Here we go again. This weekend is about good games and good fun. Don't rain on that parade. Play nice guys. Here's the very standard and friendly:

- NO Balance Whine.
- NO Player Bashing.
- NO Caster Bashing.
- NO BM whatsoever.

Breaking these rules (from pg 166 forward) will be met with severe punishment.

how can people cheer for leenock for all inning?


Because:
They find it exciting?
They are not butthurt about race balance?
They acknowledge that this guys are playing to win?
They are being entertained?



Quite pathetic if you are entertained by 5 min zerg cheeses.

Quite pathetic if you are whining about 5 min zerg wins.


Im not whining im saying its boring watching these games.

Leenock plays those just perfectly, he know that Naniwa is greedy early game to have a good army and rely on his perfect micro to win, but is weakness is on his confidence in defense early game, and leenock exploit this.... this is just mindgame

The funny thing about this 7RR build Leenock is doing is that it was ALL the rage a while ago. All the pro Zergs, including IdrA, switched to it for a time. For some reason, it stopped being used - presumably because Protoss found a solution, and now Leenock is bringing it back.

Can Naniwa channel the old Protoss that found how to beat 7RR? Or will he just get stomped in the final game?

what does the word 'cheese' ever add to a discussion lol.

I think I'm just going to stop taking it seriously any time some one says it. Push means something, all-in means something, proxy means something, most of the time cheese just means you're.mad.

FXO zergs are so cheesy. Lucky and Leenock do almost nothing but all ins. I just do not see why so many people are cheering for him. Because he is 16?

he beat mvp in a macro game, should be enoghh


This is the cheesiest I've ever seen Leenock play. Please watch other Leenock games before assuming roach rush when you only see 1 series. He played standard versus DRG and in all his Code S games this season.

Also he beat Nada with a 6pool.



Yup he's playing the PLAYER!

He has a good handle on Nani. Nani HAS to switch it up or else this is ALLLLL OVER!


Naniwa is like the Protoss Idra where he's super predictable. Leenock is just punishing that fact and it's clearly paying off.
The ruminations are mine, let the world be yours.

I don't understand why people consider early aggression cheese after Leenock spots the fast expo? It's a counter for fast expand... Or should Leenock just let Nani mass probe until saturation?

So many low post count users whining about cheese who fail to recognise that it is a direct response to Nani's predictable opening.

Stop being so damn ignorant about the game!


I never really bought into the post counts mattering, but it funnily enough makes a somewhat accurate stereotype haha.

For some reason there's a general consensus that 2-3 base 200 food armies clashing into one another for 7 games in a row is more exciting. Cheese plays the player, and works so well in a series over a Bo1.

Does not mean its fun to watch, JD even stated that he heavily reduced his cheesing because its sucks to watch.

Naniwa does a forge fe every game, and Leenok is proving that it is not as safe as some protoss think it is. I am hoping the metagame changes into less forge fe than it is right now. At least from a spectators point of view.

That's the best counter to a Fast Forge Expand (FFE)... Why go into a macro game with Toss when you can finish him early. And MOST zergs are doing this to Toss on the ladder already.

does that mean all terrans should go 1/1/1 all in vs protoss who early expo?


If its going to be your best shot at winning in a tournament, hell why not?
But for instance the 1/1/1 isnt, so you dont see it.

Naniwa should not be fast expanding all the time...
