It's ridiculous how you guys can be so blindly limited by these ridiculous notions you made up for yourselves.
cheese requires macro, its not like if I cheese, we suddenly stop and start playing streetfighter
and you are SO WRONG
where did the so called "standard" play come from?
did someone sit on their ass and theory craft and adjust numbers and one day stumbled upon it?
You sound like the idiots back in my physics and calculus class who were all like
"oh we don't need to derive formulas, we can use a formula sheet on the test or we can just memorize it"
Yea and then what, you pass the test then you forget everything you learned in a few years.
OR
you can learn how to derive equations from scratch so that you can
1. actually retain information and learn
2. be able to solve much harder problems applying the skills you learn
By deriving it, you learn HOW and WHY it was made and is now the "standard" and you are able to use the formula with much more speed and fluency
in short, playing only "standard" is like memorizing a bunch of numbers/formulas you don't really understand. In short term, it makes you SEEM like you know what you're doing
cheesing is the gradual road to discovering your own "standard". And if your "standard" is different from the current "standard", then you are an innovator

Nice post.
