Plow|Exception (Rohan) [attachmentid=178882] Vs TR|Shark (Isengard)[attachmentid=178881]
Fords of Isen
Top: Rohan
Bottom: Isengard



TR|Shark (Isengard)[attachmentid=178881]

B.O. 2 furnace > mills > pit > urak/pike spam > wargs
P.P Warchant > Industry > Palantir > rain

Creeps 1/6

Pros
+Used orc labourers for scouting
+Held off both waves of initial peasent rushes
+wargs to counter peasent spam with horses, also use of palantir for wargs


Cons
-Late to put pikes in formation, horse knocked them down, then you would hear spears down after they left
-creeps you just got one, could have sent a few zerks with pikes to try and claim more quicker
-you really needed to keep zerks with your pikes, you lost alot of pikes, never got the economy going cause you couldnt defend it.

Player Comments
Two furnace start is a bit risky but you held off both initial peasent rushes, however since your urak/pike spam came later he already had horses on to the field. Plus not taking down his initial farms out side his economey never really got touched. You played Isengard well, and over all you did good. Your warg mircro was a little lacking losing one bat early in game and no zerks with pikes to help counter peasents. FORMATION get those pikes in porcupine.

Player Rating 6



Plow|Exception[attachmentid=178882]

B.O. 2 Farms > Victorie peasent rush > farm > stable/3 horse spam > upgrades
P.P. Draft > Elves > Heal > Andurial > Ents

Creeps 5/6

Pros
+Creeps 5/6 stilling one from his pikes
+good rush, though you didnt take any farms down you kept isen on his map buying time for horses
+Good work using horses and peasents to push back pikes
+Got map control and never lost it
+good use of summon elves (taking out pikes them moved them on to take out another also used them to assist in killing a early warg bat)
+Lvl 4 theo
+Horse mirco was exellent except were you lost one near the end when you rushed his orc pit

Cons
-Left gate open (though it may have been done on purpose seeing 2 peasents come out as the one unit of pikes came in)
-let enemy destroy your famrs getting P.P. from them

Player Comments
Great game, very good use of rohan to combat Isengard. You never let him keep any mills on your side of the map (worked both sides) pushing him slowly back into his base. Brought out counters to pikes and good use of summons. This is a good game for any Rohan lover to watch that is having trouble in this match up

Player rating 8


Game Summary

Isengard started with a 2 furnace start holding off Thug's victorie peasent rush, then started the pike spam and some wargs to counter peasents. Rohan used horses with peasents to counter the pike spam, and great use of summons (elves) to counter wargs, There were some small mistakes on both sides but nothing major. This is a great game to watch.
