Not all cheese builds focus on the timing of getting a certain unit out as soon as possible. And specially in early game, where 5-10seconds can decide the game, these small things add up. Whenever your timings land perfectly, and money is kept as low as possible, it’s a proof of a very powerful opening that will give you the slight edge against your opponent. This also makes Terran openings very unpredictable, and often times can grant us the benefit of element of surprise (Not to mention the strength in early game Terran units).īy coming up with the most optimal and efficient build orders via experiments, I’ve had much success with these well constructed build orders. Compared to rather linear and step-based tech paths of other races, Terrans have very dynamic tech paths, allowing us to adjust our timings and pick which ever tech path we choose to use in early game openings. If there’s one thing that Blizzard ever gifted us Terrans, it’s our ability to open up with multiple cheese builds.

But, enough with the chit chat for now, and let’s get this cheese cookin’. I’ve noted some of the important highlights, tips and tricks that might help you when cheesing.

The following thread will cover in very detailed manner, how to cheese. Cheese will definitely help you become better in terms of mechanical gameplay, but do note that it won’t make you a better player (and there is a limit to how far you can go with cheese). I use to cheese, and if it failed, I would quickly move on to the next game. In fact, cooking cheese was all I ever did till 3k diamonds back in the days (when top players were like 3.5k Diamonds). Other than the fact that D9 has the best immortal impersonation, he has taught many nublets like me to become a better player).

Watching day9 dailies and watching pros stream might give you a solid foundation in theory, but if you can’t turn theories into practical use, one cannot actually become a better player (that is not to say I hate D9. I remember myself spending hours and hours watching day9, trying to become a better player, contemplating on the perfect build orders, yet when I actually sit down and play the game, all of that just leaves my brain, and I’m sitting there zombified, trying to keep up with the information the game throws at me.Īs much as day9 enlightens us with mind boggling analysis and theories, I find that the ‘nike approach of just doing it‘ sometimes works better when you have no idea where to start. Sometimes, repeating and doing things without even knowing why it works is more efficient way to learn than contemplating on game theories.
