Battle for Middle Earth

Post our mordor mirror grish

we played one to0, some time ago Light

still got the replay?

Review by: Nightmarelord

Starting positions:
agirbmol - East
Smokin^FerK - West

Overview:

Both contracting parties went with a 1 Orc Pit starter. agirbmol took 3 mills at the beginning while Smokin^FerK took 2 mills and rather went for quick harassing. Good creeping from both sides. Ferk tried with 3 Orc pits, while agirb went for quick trolls. FerK got map control in late early game with his Nazgul. FerK had every outpost and map control in mid game which made him get a huge resource boost. The Witchking got FerK the final advantage over the game. I didnt see much possibilities for agirb after that anymore, he clearly got overwhelmed. Overall the game was okay, but agirb's strategy and unit micro wasnt as good as Ferk's. Agirb did quite a bunch of mistakes. There were some boring parts in the game and there wasnt a big battle either, so my rating on this game wont be that high. You might want to watch this replay if you want to see 2 different strategies in a mordor mirror, to see which is better.

I witnessed a small bug in this game at the northwest cave troll lair. There was an orc creeping the lair and the troll couldnt kill that orc because he was stuck somehow.

agirbmol - Mordor

Took you quite a time to rebuild laborers after Ferk harassed you, rebuild right after they die so your economy doesnt slow down. That was really risky coming the troll so close and as a matter of fact, costed you quite alot of orcs which is bad for the harassing in early game. Making Combos with Fire and Drummer trolls gave you a bit advantage and fent off his Nazgul harassing untill he got his 2nd one. Why didnt you take that 2nd Drummer Troll you had in the base and attack with it? Wouldve gave you another nice LS boost. It wasnt necesarry that you suicided your Mountain Troll to his overwhelming army. His Mordor Strategy overwhelmed yours. You might want to try a new strategy next time you play a Mordor Mirror.

How to Improve

• 10 Laborers is way too many for just 1 Mill and a waste of CP and money. Try getting 6-7, thats enough.
• Pay more attention to your units/buildings instead of letting them die/ get destroyed without moving a finger.
• Don't try risky maneuvers out of desperation.
• Try selling buildings at Yellow Health.
• A Nazgul might've helped you out in this game.

Smokin^FerK - Mordor

The quick harassing slightly slowed down agirb's economy which sometimes makes a big difference in early game in a Mordor mirror. This also goes for you, rebuild Laborers right after they die. Your late early game harassing really paid out with the orc spam. The Nazgul helped you alot and got rid of annoying enemy trolls. Very good unit micro here. The Witchking was the final tip to your Army.

How to Improve

• Unfortunately you lost 1 of your Nazguls over his base. Be more careful with them next time.
• Dont lose attention to the rest of the map, even if you feel like you are winning.

Overall Rating: 4
