GG xdogs

[attachmentid=219450]

Review by: Nightmarelord

Starting positions:
Smokin^FerK - Northwest
LAL|Xdogs - Southeast

Overview:

They started off with some nice harassing and a few battles. Mordor spammed out orcs which gave him map control for the most of the time, but that didn't stop Gondor to keep harassment up. There were some nice battles and Mordor kept pressure on Gondor. After all this game was very entertaining and exciting too watch, although there were some major mistakes I am forced to give this replay Silver just for the intensity on this game.

Smokin^FerK - Mordor

Started off with a rather unsual 2 orc pit strategy. Lost alot of orcs to his Soldiers but managed to defend your mill and got tainted land quickly (so you had eye and land). Went straight for creeping to get quicker money your troll cage. Defended your base nicely against his shield rush, you could've lost alot more than what you did. Kept pressure on gondor and his units, didn't give him much time and chances to creep. You lost 2 trolls unfortunately, but you cant escape from Faramir and Gandalf in combination. The mumakill pen was the moment the game turned around to your advantage. You forced your enemy back into his base and gained map control. Took out his Gandalf and Boromir pretty early and recieved a nice level 2 Mumakill. You had almost every unit mordor had to offer, Gondor couldn't do much to stop it anymore. Got your Nazgul just in time to get rid of his Eagles, he was the final tip to your army and game. After you got Balrog there wasn't much Gondor could do anymore to get back into the game.

How to Improve
  • Rebuy mills if lost them, a laborer survived and no enemy is around.
  • Eat some orcs when you have trolls at low health and not in a battle. They cost alot and can be very useful.
  • Lost that battle at Gondor. Maybe you should've tried to trample gandalf with both your mumakills.
  • Use catapults only in the back of an army, not at the front, thats just a waste.
  • Had some nice attacks with your Witchking in his base but dont stay too long in a Gondor base as he could always spawn out a hero or towers. Gandalf came out and owned your Witchking.

LAL|Xdogs - Gondor

You pretty much owned his orc spam with your Soldiers at the beginning. I thought this was rather amusing with the levels your soldiers gained. I dont know what exactly happened but it seemed like your soldier disappeared when Mordor came with 3 more orc bats to kill him, looked like he was running off the map, lol. A very nice shield rush taking down a few buildings although he had trolls, I couldnt've done it much better. Got out Gandalf pretty early to kill some trolls. Boromir probably was the best choice to spend your money on as he got rid of the orcs and can own trolls at some times. The eagles saved your life and were probably the best decision you could make after losing your Gandalf again. You had an overwhelming force against you but defended nicely still and fought to the last building, got his Witchking down aswell but that was all you could do.

How to Improve
  • Should've concentrated a bit more on creeping while harassing, before he gets out his first troll which then happened.
  • Lost Gandalf very stupidly. Never attack a Mumakill from the front with Gandalf or any other hero and never attack him alone. They can charge real quick and as a matter of fact he owned your Gandalf. This was the worst mistake in the game. This action costed you both Gandalf AND Boromir.
  • Don't waste your summoned elves like that. Try and dodge a mumakill from trampling them.
  • As NubHan already mentioned, dont waste your money on Forged Blades for your combos. They don't have much effect against Mordor (trolls, mumakills & nazgul).

Overall Rating: 7

blades are good if used with elves and hs early, helps the rush immensely
well at back has a better advantage of if he breaks through your wall, you can gather around the well at the back that he wouldnt be able to destroy as easily
i'll check it out dog

Doesn't mean he'll post it and more feedback from different perspectives is always good. Maybe he will like Mav's feedback more than yours. No need to be so defensive of your review numchuks.gif .

Done and very good replay! thumb.gif

I had to give this Silver because this game was entertainment pure and this is the way you should play although you are not quite pro. An example for everyone that is still learning. smile.gif
