I've never understood people's strong aversion to cheesy games - I'd rather watch a cheese rush than a long cautious 4 base game that has only one big battle at the end. I wish they would be called "micro-intensive openers" instead of "cheese".

Forsen a-moving infestors at the front of his army into a few fungaled marines.
And then complaining about lag.

Sorry mate, but lag doesn't cause you to have really crap army control, being bad at army control does. When Forsen plays even close to well, he can complain about his opponent, until then, he's just being a complete baby.
Maybe Masa didn't deserve to win, but Forsen deserved to win even less, so Masa should have won on balance anyway, and did.

I don't have a problem with cheese.
Cheese is fine. A player who basically ONLY cheeses is not fine. Seriously, nearly every game he plays, he opens in a cheesy way if he can, be it proxy starport, double rax as in these games, or some other cheese. It's what he does all the time.
Someone who CAN cheese and does cheese sometimes is good.
SC is like Idra, but the opposite. For most of his early career, Idra never ever cheesed, which made him bad and boring, because he never mixed it up, and was predictable.
SC equally always cheeses, so he's also predictable and it's simply a bad way to play. You need to mix it up, not play the same way every single time you play.


I never said they have shown him before, but he has played before many times in various competitions, and always cheeses.

Bitterdam just said Ret is playing for first place in the division, but Alicia is +7, 6-2 when Ret can be at best +7, 6-2, and Alicia beat Ret, how does Ret ever overtake Alicia?

Edit: Apparently Liquipedia has an error and Alicia is only +6.

Yeah he can't, Alicia wins the group for sure.

Edit: I'm 90% sure Liquipedia is right. Just added up all the matches and what we have there is right based on that. And the nasl.tv site has nothing updated.

Well, NASL put up a graphic with the standings and had Alicia at +6. The discrepancy matters and should be resolved.
