What's his line again?
What's his line again?
Question:
Back in the day, if my memory doesnt fail me, rushes and 'cheeses' were quite common, at least was when I played
Now I see Starcraft II community hating and despiting cheesing and early aggression, favouring macro/big scale fights
What the fuck happened?
>MY WIFE FOR HIRE
Who knew protoss were such cucks?
Early cheese/all in build are considered poor play in both broodwar and starcraft 2 now. Going for a macro build is considered the skillful thing to do.

>in both Broodwar
As far as I know, early/middle game strategies were often common, and not hated
I remenber those siege tank/marine/turret/bunker with scouting engineering bay pushes
These timed Zealot and Dragoon pushes
Zerglings, Hydralisks rush with Mutalisk 11 mutas micro
I'm just old or stupid, maybe both
people changed
more people get butthurt over any early game strategy now
That's fucking stupid
bump
GAU-GULA.
I'm pretty sure his line was "Please get in the transport, but make sure it's 5 people at a time"
Chee house!!
HONOR DINE ME!
Because in sc2 all the casual players would do is memorize a 10 minute build and ragequit if it didnt work so people got sick of playing against that.
In brood war you made start the game with a set plan, like lurker pressure, or fast expand with bunkers or whatever. But you still learned how to play the game. Also it is worth noting that successful rushes are harder to pull off in brood war since you have to control your units perfectly, while in sc2 you maek marine and bring 8 workers and a-move your ball up the enemy ramp.
WHUT?
>Lurker push
Dont remind me of these old nightmares
I only could scan so much
Considering that "late game" is now 10 minutes on NA master tier ladder, and every single game is either a drop or 1A all-in, it says a lot any the quality of the game.
I long for combat
Confederation was RIGHT
The casualization of Starcraft was a mistake
it is a good day to die
Where can I watch those brood war matches commented by artosis and his buddy? brood war is cool but I have no idea what's happening
I just wish BW had the option to restrict all hotkeys (not the selection ones, the ones that make units/buildings do shit) to QWEASDZXC
I believe it was "dis ain't enough crystal fo all deez niggas to smoke"

Howdy!
Thanks user
It is still common, depending on the level where you play, problem with cheesing in BW was that if you fail it, you lose the game, chance of successful comeback from failed cheese is much smaller than winning with macro based game. The better the players, the harder it is to cheese them.
I know nothing of SC2, cause that game is shit, and only plebians play it competitive.
Is Zerg the weakest of the 3 races in brood war?
Not really, but their late game kinda sucked, specially against Protoss
One of the few units that I genuinely felt sorry for in the campaign, especially in those rare laboratory missions.
Wonder what DLC they're gonna do next. Nova is finished, wonder who gets to be the next special snowflake
