NOTE: NOT EVERYTHING ON THESE CARDS IS CHEESE.
So while I was watching the ESV weekly yesterday, I was inspired by Tassadar's endless 2 base all-ins (although he did throw in a 3rd base and went 3 stargate carriers in one game, I will admit) to make a bingo card so I and the other people in chat could enjoy what might otherwise be some pretty boring series. It was pretty fun, so I figured I'd so something like that for each race. I fleshed out the cards a bit, and added some non-all in, but ridiculous things like nuking an army, as well as some semi all-ins. I've uploaded the bingo cards into a publicly available google doc:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1LyWAkgBXSBLfhimTfmgzdsCqxHNxrr44O88hobIBzQU/edit?hl=en_US
Thoughts? This was done pretty quickly, so suggestions are welcome!
P.S. I'd also like to note that this could also be the start of a fun drinking game. A sip for whenever you get a new square, and finish the drink when you get bingo?
P.P.S Will be cross-posting on reddit once they fix the read-only thing.
EDIT: jpeg images of the cards from copy/pasting into paint for anyone interested:

Hahahaha, i'm definitely doing this!

If I played ladder, the protoss card would fill up so quickly.
|
LooooooooooooooL, i just heard of it now, this sounds hilarious! xD
Filling that "Someone makes carrier" slot seems hard as hell I think tournament organizers should give real bingo cards at 2/3 days live events and give some prizes at the end. You should maybe make bingo cards with all the 3race mixed and if possible a randomizer of all the slots.

BINGO !!
Seriously that's cool

HAHAHA that would be hilarious. It would be probably kind of easy to cheat, but so much fun
|
I filled the whole Protoss bottom row laddering yesterday.
This was added to the Korean Weekly OP :D
|
the zerg card has to have a slot for 'any pressure that is ever applied to Idra in the first few minutes'
|
Dood you totally need +2 blink 7 gate w/ obs(or dts) PvZ.... that's like my favorite all in !
|
i think the zerg card will fill up very quick when i ladder...
|
This is a cool idea. It would be more aesthetically pleasing if all the boxes were around the same sizes and you added some color but other than that its a great idea! A randomizer to make each card unique with a mix of all the races would be really cool and make the game more like a real Bingo game.

I think all this thing should be renamed to "SC2 Builds Bingo Cards" since some of your slots are speedling expand or maybe remove those normal builds.
|
These are not all-ins these are normal builds. Building a mothership is not cheese. Nice idea but extremely biased thread.
|
3 hatch before pool and 18 hatch before pool is never going to be used. 3rd base before 2nd gas is going to be used every zvp.
Feel free to use any of these zerg suggestions: Zerg getting over 200 units with building canceling trick. Creep covering over 50% of map. Neural parasite on t3 unit. Early pool with offensive spine crawler+worker all in vs Z. Clutch transfuse with queen. Commando infestors killing workers. Burrowed unit hindering expansion. Over 100 lings in production at one time. Baneling drops. Hive before 15 minute mark. Dual spire for upgrades.

How is 6 queens in 2 base cheese?
It makes you completely immune to banshees, stargate, hellion, reaper, etc play.
DRG makes 5-6 queens off 2 base against protoss all the time
|
lol this looks really fun

This is pretty awesome! Could even do something similar just for a drinking game

10/10
Awesome post, I think I see a lot of the Protoss ones on a daily basis. ;~;

Well I did say that not all of these are all ins in the thread. The idea is that it's a mix of rarely-seen stuff, cheese, and semi-all ins. The Zerg card is a bit lame, since I couldn't really think of a whole lot of things to put there.

I like a lot of those! I'll have to update the cards after the weekly is done. Thanks for the suggestion.

the new supply block bingo
|
I just had a guy do a thor scv pull all-in thing. Stimmed Marines beat a move-commanded thor though...
|
Love the cards! Great Idea =) I'll probably use them elsewhere too. Might be fun for weekend tournament gigs.
One suggestion. . . and this is just me being a bit anal, but maybe you could make the bingo spots squares so it's a square board? Really picky, i know XD.
Great idea though heh =)
|
ROFL, this is great. Thx a lot OP, I'll probably fill up a few toss cards in an hour or so of laddering on my bronze smurf, lol.

Maybe something overly ridiculous, like 230 supply ?
|
And here I am trying to figure out what a "free space" was and what sort of units I had to build to do it.
|
Some of these are hard to call cheese anymore now that players are getting so good at transitioning out of them. Still a fun game though!
|
for zerg, i suggest "creep reaches opponent's natural". It's feasible, i already saw it sometimes.
|
hahaha 10+ ultras at once #1 cheese strat

(As I said in the ESV thread)
make a program that takes say...30 or 40 blocks for each race and randomly generates a bingo card so we can make unique cards and play against each other! no fun when we all have the same cards.

(also as said in the ESV thread) I don't really have very much programming knowledge, but I'll see if I can figure something that will let people do the same thing. At the very least I intend on making several variants with the new shinier bingo cards I'll be working on this week, so there's at least SOME variety.
Again, any suggestions on squares or anything else are more than welcome.
EDIT: And note these aren't ALL cheese. There's some other bingo-worthy things, like motherships, carriers, nukes and the like.
