StarCraft 2: TRASH TALKING!

Today it's time for a viewer submitted game of StarCraft 2. In this Platinum and Diamond League match of Protoss vs Zerg. One of the cheesiest games you can go watch, as the Protoss decides to go for a few Proxy Gateways on the other side of the map, but it turns out to be one of the worst StarCraft cheeses I've ever seen. Of course the next logical step is to go for a proxy Nexus.

[@gl4re]

Well it is also because that dota or moba style custom map was created more famous than warcraft itself is because it is easier to play. I think that basically the main reason. You just control 1 unit how hard can it be? That is what I'm thinking back then.

Ready for level 2 of this wisdom? Most people blame others based on their own intentions. Liars always blame others for lying. Thieves accuse others of stealing. Abusers will always accuse you of hurting poor, precious little them. Whatever kind of person you are, it's natural to assume others are think and act the same way. And when someone lashes out to hurt or discredit someone else, they'll usually pick the thing they're most afraid people will learn about them. Given these two players, Erwodak is 1000% more likely to actually use hacks.

[@jeremykiahsobyk102]

I think they get high metals because their cheese strategy works on a majority of lower MMR. Then when they run into someone that counters the cheese, they have to fall back on actual play, which assuredly did not get them into Plat. So then Lowko casts one of these games and people look at the actual skill bench of these players and wonder how this happens.
