I wasn't being serious sad.gif

But it seems to be the trend thats going on these days. So dissapointingly hard to find a proper game where someone doesn't cheese.

What is wrong with cheesing ? Cheesing is a skill anyways..

My Journey today :

1) I cheesed someone and he scold he shit out of me

2) I win over someone who cheesed me and he say I Suk Chun

Wtf ?
*
i would nt call it a skill but rather a strategy/ build...
as i said, its a all-in style of play...

The worst thing is, i use 1 scv wif 1 reaper in the bunker while he have 2 stalkers up... then i bring in 5 more reapers to his base but the bunker had been exploded... then i use my marauder to finish him off.. is this cheesing ?
*
i dun think that's a cheese anymore...
for him to have 2 stalkers up is past the cheese timing...

well it depends, went 3-2 with a fren (both of us are diamonds with other teams) for 2s and got to plat LOL...

i think the matchmaking system is fine...
if u keep farming points by beating noobs (especially wit the bonus pool) but looses to higher ranked opponents (losing 1-2 points only) then u will be stucked there no matter hw much points u got =p

Interesting. My friend and I did the 2v2 and we won 5-0.
Ended up in Gold League only. tongue.gif

Maybe we only got at most a Gold league player during our matchups.
For my 1v1 I got a 3-2 I think and I ended up in Bronze haha.
Probably lost to a Bronze player in one of the games. That time still didn't know how to check profile at the score screen.

Now have to slowly climb up the ladder.

lol me n my fren 3-2 and got to plat =p

really depends on numbers, the rays takes like almost a sec to "apply" (as in, the rays may be on the marine, but he doesnt immediately vaporize)
while marine stimmed, you get the idea. cheaper, easier to mass with reactors and all.

unless the voids are having cliff abuse advantage, the overall advantage favors the marine greatly. voids typically arent good to take out massed units that anti air after all. charge or not charged. and non charged voids, might as well forget it lol
*
5 unstimmed marines > 1 charged VR...
unless u cant focus fire, then the VR seemed OP

i owned an entire terran base with 1 VR before...
doing it against a bad player doesn't make the unit OP...

people sending 1 marine at a time to feed ur VR doh.gif or atk moving marines into VR when VR have range 6 to marine's 5 rclxub.gif

lol, i used to do that too when I have only 1 stalker (fast expand) while the opponent used fast VR rush that I failed to scout properly...send stalker 1 by 1 to feed them T_T

rally ur troops to a save spot, get some mass then go in FTW...

there's a hidden confidence which determines ur consistency...

As zerg on a 1 on 1 map.

6pool autowins. That will get you to diamond and diamond will pawn you after that.

Gold and below will call you cheese and diamonds will call you noob.
*
depends lol...
i only loose once to a 6pool and that's in lost temple (where i think he map hack anyways for him to run straight to my base without scouting LOL)...
1v1 map usually i'll be more careful since he dun need to scout..

maybe you can help me settle my curiosity.

take my case for example.

i have not even 10 games. this morning played my 8th and 9th game.

after 8th game i was rank #45 (victory). 9th game also I won, come out check my opponent profile to see..........

Platinum league, 1 vs 1 Rank #13 (maybe rank drop after lost to me) with 645 games and 329 wins!!

WTH - that felt good! match starting that time he was labeled as FAVORED but i am wondering why #45 Bronze player was matched to vs a top 15 Platinum player, which is 3 leagues apart!

i look at his match history, it's a balance of Win and Loss. http://sea.battle.net/sc2/en/profile/18952...hes#filter=solo

what do you think?

or is it my victory streak that B.net decided to match me vs higher rank player?
*
its based on a hidden match-making rating (MMR) to determined who is favoured and not according to ur league/ rank...
