Game Overview Nice Mordor vs Isen game where mordor has to relie early on his ctadel income. Isengard keeps up the pressure and cancels darkness each time by using rain. Isen does so well it even goes ahead in the PP race.
Grishnaka - Mordor Your start was questionable, 2 pit pit and gollum made you force to stay on defence early and force you to gather money from citadel. when 2 pit rather don't buy gollum and make mill. Other starts are;1. pit + furn and mill followed by gollum, this starts enables you to hold atleast 1 econ building since furnaces are hard to destroy; 2. pit, 2 mills gollum (make pit near mill and make a tower there). Ofc you need to check if he is FoD then by using the wall trick. When those uruks where going to attack your 2 pits try to block them, hold 2 orcs at the front and one at the back of the 2 pits. As said after that attack you should have gone straight to creeping the goblin liar and then harass further. Also you got way too many towers up early, therefore a uruk, zerker sh migth have woned you because your econ got behinfd becuase of those early tower build costs. Early you also lost an unfinished tower, watch that if it seems to fail before it's build up destroy it and you get your 150 back. Despite the bad early game you managed to survive well, but make sure you keep spamming TL until he has it, and you can do it once more if he just activated and has no TL. Your Darkness timing was constantly wrong, go offensive and let him cast weather first and retreat then to your land. You also really needed some cata protection from trolls and therefore having atleast 2 trolls in your army.
[WISE]Archy Started with pit, 2 mill, which somewhat worked in this game, but if mordoe would have chosen another strat your econ would have been screwed hard. I rather start pit + furn + mill on this map or 2 furn pit, since this map is so small and orcs can reach your mills early. Gollum made 1 of your mills early unusable by killing all labs, always wath out for him ealy and have enough workers to face him. A zerk + uruk rush might have ended this game as he just got his first troll out when u had blades. Mid and lategame you played good, trying to preserve your troops, although it was too late at times and keeping some MC.
archy i don't think you're gonna get a level 6 medal, there is some new system or something where it takes more than 1 medal to get the the next level once you're on level 5
