StarCraft Cheese Academy
by Space Camel and Professor Phi
A fun, amateur podcast about the hit real-time strategy game StarCraft 2 and its strategies known as “cheeses”, especially directed at new players. Cheese strategies are controversial: they’re unconventional and risky, but can be devastating and infuriating for its victims. Even if you don’t want to use cheese strategies, you need to know what to do when they’re used on you. If you do, you’ll come to love cheese, and enjoy the game even more.
