A nicely played text book game between Isengard and Mordor including a suprising 1v1 battle between someone other than these players. The strats were near perfect and the micro was not the best but good micro nonetheless. There were many idle moments unfortunately as both players kind of waited each time for the other to rebuild their armies lowering the entertainment value. Otherwise, wp both of you.
FateGoesRandom - Mordor
Very nice counter to his up to date strategy but I felt you were very passive after gaining your combos and drummers. In the beginning, you could've attacked without catapults seeing he had no upgrades. Also, try to que up units while attacking, this caused you to not be able to take advantage of the time when rain was inactive. Some small micro mistakes such as protecting catapults but otherwise great game.
Gamroth - Isengard
Your early game was countered but you recovered quickly but imo not aggressively enough. Try to take out a pit and be more harrasive of his mills as this will divert his orcs from creeping/attacking you. Unfortunately, you never took down more than two mill I believe. Your early game kind of snowballed and caused you to turtle vs. the mordor. Otherwise great game and nice Balrog.
*Note to both players: Mid-game, both of you in a sense remembered about MC "once" but afterwards, there was not much mill harrasment. Try to always remember about MC at all times.
Overall Rating: 6

This one was an awesome game vs Fate, really deserves a review
Fate won but was a real long hard battle, worth a watch
