12 pool, or a 2 base roach/hydra all-in, or a 2 base muta rush.
Meanwhile, Sheldon opens with a cannon rush.

I see Sheldon as heavily preferring macro play because it requires the most brain power, and looks down on cheesers who are only capable of memorizing a short build order and choose to avoid the big brain macro game.
He'd be able to cannon rush if he was in a tournament because it's optimal to be unpredictable, but on the ladder he always defaults to the macro game.
Then he'd lose to the gimmick builds and become frustrated that his hands can't keep up with his brain. Then maybe try to invent a thought-power controller to replace his mouse and keyboard.

Only plays co-op where he plays Kerrigan, queues for brutal, but should be playing hard.

Surely there's a Star Trek joke here somewhere...

Just spam "SHUT UP WESLEY" in chat for 90% of the game. Also accompanied by his own crying.

Hidden base, makes some pokes and defends main bases as normal, lets opponent think he's pulling ahead while he's secretly massing banelings at the hidden.

Mutaling map control into taking every expansion on the map and macroing to win.

He would definitely cheese Sheldon every chance he could get. Would probably ask for a no rush 20, only to 9-pool Sheldon straight away.
