On a Starcraft online match, ill bet only a few know how to successfully Reaver Drop. It blows them away like a mofo nonetheless. And note that it is a strategey, not a cheat. What about mixing units? It works very well but its definetly not a cheat, its a strategy.

And when does snaking always blow someone away? If you dont like snaking, simply play on Sky Garden or something. Snaking is not always beneficial, unlike a cheat.

Also, for your information, i dont snake online. Heck, I havent even gone one global wifi yet. I just feel that a legitamate tactic deserves defense.

Exactly my point! But by your logic of condemning snaking, you attack motion sensor bombs as well.

Well, fox's shine in SSBM isnt meant to be a meteor, but you can use it as that. Does that mean its cheating? D:

According to shadowmarth, that doesnt justify "cheating". But in my belief, it wasnt cheating to begin with.

And if you dont like the stage selection, simply disconnect before the match begins.

Ok, you seem to be big into analogies, and I don't have time to adress each one, so I'll put it simply. Each of the instances you said were purposefully built into the game. Reaver drops are a normal strategy, after all, it is a strategy game. This isn't a strategy game, and this isn't reaver dropping. And not many people know how to do it? Come on, it's a basic protoss tactic. EVERYBODY knows how to do it. EVERYBODY knows how to defend against it. It's a carefully tuned balance of the game. Snaking unbalances the game. That alone doesn't make it a cheat, but it does make it cheap.

You've given many "similar" examples of elements built into the game. I have to wonder, why havn't you actually adressed the issue? You've danced around it with your motion bomb talk (completely sensless and rediculous example), and atacking starcraft is a moronic attempt. However, you havn't changed the fact that it is in fact a cheat. For all your fine tuned elaborations, and sarcastic exaggerations, you've yet to give me any reason to think it's not. I've, however, given more than enough reason to conclusively decide that it is.

And thinking the way you think now,you'll be a victim by it everytime,if other people had the same idea you had,no one would snake,but theres always going to be one rebel,and that rebel will win, unless you face the fact that it is mean't to be used and not cheap.The only thing that is cheap in the game is really the ITEMS.

Snaking is no deception. It is clearly there, able to be seen by anyone. If you neglect to utilize it, its fully the ignormaus' fault.
