I need help

I am a bronze player who should be in gold, but I keep on getting cheesed.

Is there a way to reset my account or something?

I want to be able to play at my appropriate level without having to deal with derankers and photo cannon rushers.

If possible I would like to reassign my CD-Key to a different Battle.net account

i don't think that you can reset your ladder without buying a new copy of the game yet. But cheese doesn't go away at any level, you need to just learn how to deal with it.

Or you could learn to beat the cheese and get to gold. If you belonged in gold you would be there.

Maybe, just maybe you shouldn't be gold but in bronze if you lose to every cheese.

If you can't scout a cannon rush than you don't deserve to be in gold.

not to be blunt, but if your losing to bronze cheese, you prolly belong in there, just keep playing itll promote you.

And no, you cant reset, maybe you can try email blizzard
As for switching you key to another account, i really doubt blizzard will accept, but your gonna have to call them.

I agree, you don't belong in gold if you can't scout/stop cheese.

No, you can't reassign or reset your ladder rank.

Learn to defend the cheese when you see it, scout for it, all cheese is rather easily countered if you know what you're doing. Cheese is also quite popular all the way to mid-high level diamond play, so you will always be faced with some sort of cheese.

Also, if you cannot beat the cheese, then I believe you are appropriately placed in Bronze (personal 2 cents).

oh this is hilarious. I had a good laugh before sleep. thanks.

I bought SC2 few weeks ago, played beta before, and didn't start 1v1 until I finish SP on brutal with all SP achievs, but I want to get placed into bronze so I can have some fun getting up. I wonder if I'll face the same problem ^_^ But really, if they cheese you, learn to deal with it. Saying - I belong to gold but I can't get there really - kinda sucks.

If there was a rank lower than bronze I would put you there just because you said "I should be in gold but I keep getting cheesed"

If you can't defeat cheese, you don't belong in anything other than bronze. Not trying to be a jerk -- it's just a little silly to say "I SHOULD be in a higher division but I keep losing to x, y, and z." The fact is, you are losing to fairly bad strategies (based on your description); practice more, analyze more, watch more replays.

You'll eventually level up due to skill. Don't worry about where you "should" be; you are exactly where you "should" be.

Well.. this is kinda ugly statement.. how did all the cheesers that are at low diamond got there? Everybody they beat with their constant cheese should be in bronze then, amirite? I mean, cheese sucks, but can only get opponent so far. If you expect it, it's not cheese. And at bronze level (even up to diamond) if your macro is better, cheese won't really help opponent that much if you dampen it at least a bit.

Just don't email blizz about it. With the way things are going they'll actually listen to you and protoss will have to make a cybernetics core before they can make cannons.

The only cheese I lose to is photon cannon, and that is only because people are practicing it as a build to get it up as fast as possible. I know how to counter it, that's the easy part, the hard part is beating it because they are already economically ahead.

I'd think most good cheesers have cheesed their way up to gold anyway. Only the bad cheesers would be stuck in bronze.

Would everyone agree that there would likely be skill disparity in the cheese of different leagues?
