We'll figure something more versatile out  yeah.. its pretty blind, but its actually quite difficult to hold especially if a zerg only knows max roach 3 base. Still, I would say it works until diamond. | ||

an example would be if zerg powers drones really hard in a time where he has no way of confirming toss/terran won't just push and kill him. He has not attained enough scouting information to confirm a push is not coming and is essentially crossing his fingers as he has no way of stopping said push if it does come. It's a really risky decision/build (as cheese usually is) that if you get away with it will pay off big time. | ||

Oh.. so its just REALLY greedy play (very high risk, hence the "cheese"), with perhaps a bit of metagame involved Interesting Meanwhile, MC in a pickle Edit: or maybe not | ||
