GenElectryx vs. Poletroti45


Gen starts the game off with an early buggy rush that damages the economy of Poletroti. Poletroti does some good moves by shoving plenty of javs into his bradleys to stop Gens' attacks, but Gens seems to manage to always kill a building at this early stage. Coming towards the mid part of the game Gens spots an enemy dozer near his base and takes it out. I have no idea what Poletroti was doing building so close to his opponents base. Poletroti makes a nice move to tech up and get turrets and apaches to help knock back the attacks of GenElectryx. Once Poletroti gets his first apache up the tide of the game begins to change. If I were Poletroti I would send atleast my 3rd apache around the water bank to come up on Gen's supplies and hurt him economically a bit despite Gen owning the 2 banks on the map. Pole exhibits osme nice Abrams micro to kill the drones of Gen, but the bombers that later come into his base finish him off. Pole tried ot build off at an expansion, but had no resoruce income besides a lone southern bank. I think Pole would've been better suited going for more ground forces instead of turtling up with turrets.

I give Gen a 7, would've been 8 if you would've micro'd your units a bit more

I give Poletroti a 6.

Replay gets a 7 from me it was a pretty decent watch.

Was it just me or did Gen's harrass strategy hurt Poule to the point where he could spam Strykers, Rocket Buggies, Spinners, AND upgraded JSFs while his opponent could only field several Apaches and Abrams?

I think the reason he "could only field" Apaches and Abrams is because that was all that was required, nothing more, cause nothing else was thrown at him. Isn't that like, the whole point? Or did I understand your comment wrong?

No I mean that the whole time there was a ludicrous economic gradient in your favor. You had him outnumbered something like 3 to 1? Didn't think a few early Buggy runs could do that much damage.
