Battle for Middle Earth

I was smurfing about and got involved in this 2v2 CM which turned out to be quite interesteing. I was Isen.

My Isen camp got raided, although not particularly badly, my partner's Rohan castle got completely destroyed but we had the centre. Then is started getting interesting.

It felt quite good to play in the match so I would like a review. I had some good pins and kills with Lurtz, getting Aragorn and Gandalf. Felt good.

i think that there are many important moments ,in this game lurth kill 2 gandys 2 lego 2 gandys and 2 eagles with only hit very near of the dead and guargs killed Aragon . and very good team work.

the first question in this game for pro players is...............



do you think get entmoot was good tatic for lowboy?


i would like that you say your opinion thx

It was a good tactic in as much as they took the Rohan castle down only because of the ents and it bought them time. They ent mooted at exactly the right time as well because we were very low on troops and quite vulnerable. If you saw all the Isengard forces that came to help repel the ents then it wasn't much and it left me very vulnerable. But normally I wouldn't ent moot if my opponent has fire or might get Aragorn. It just feeds PP's to the enemy. But what could they do? We held the centre and their best bet was a flank attack.

However as far as Lurtz micro and troop deployment went that day I think I was having a good day as Isen. Most of the stuff I did seemed to work out right and Lurtz micro worked very well. I always get wargs in 2v2 now. They are just too damn useful.

yes ,when i did get the middle i dont have money for aragon or yeomen fire but if he get entmoot 2 minuts after or before it should been bad bad tactic,are you indeed?

Comments
You rushed them very well early on, although Gondor's Faramir had profit of those peasents coming along. Isen got a fast econ. Your succesful rush made you able to claim the middle. Then you guys got entmooted, which you could have seen. Because the enemy rohan didn't make anything. After the entmoot ojorojo got crippled and isen had to do it by himself, isen might have handed over some of isens mills to rohan earlier, but anyway you did it. You had no trouble from that point on. Wargs were able to kill Aragron, but he nearly esacaped because Lurtz didn't cripple him.

The power use was ok, I think. the formation use was done also ok, although isen could have changed the xbow setting to normal when his xbows got trampled.

Overall gameplay Team 1: 5

Comments
You better could have build up an army since your team has land advantage. You started with creeping, which let them put the pressure on your side. Entmoot could have come earlier, but it worked out good.

Furhter you had awful hero micro, you jsut send your hero's one by one at a time to them. You could haev build up an army, you had good LD. the lossing of your hero's made you unable to get any further, but then Again don't use hero's as an army.

Overall gameplay team 2: 3


Entertainment
It was clear to see which one was the better team, it was surprising that team 2 managed to destroy Rohan's castle, but from then on it was ownage. Not much battles since team 2 used mainly hero's. Deamon's ( [HELP]Muppet) suicide attack on gondor's base gave some extra entertainment .

Entertainment: 4
Team 1: 5
Team 2: 3

Game rating: An average 4

Nice review, thanks.

i think that gondor used the suicide faramir to kill after lurth with gandi ,but he do not count with lego .

thx axcell good work.



only i can say to you that you dont say something about the work team that for me was very good {team 1}
