[NOON]Grenness (Isengard) v ^SINI5T3R^ (Rohan)
Map - Dunharrow



[NOON]Grenness

BO- Pit, 2 mills
PP Selection- Warchant--> Industry--> Rain--> Balrog
Strat- Uruk spam--> Wargs--> Pikes--> Upgrades--> Seige--> Lurtz--> Wargs--> Combos--> Saruman



Pros
smile.gif Extra labourers
smile.gif Perfect WC timing
smile.gif Used sarumans "Speech craft" ability
smile.gif Good use of wargs OP strength early game v combos and rohirrim

Cons
sad.gif Poor creeping (3/10)
sad.gif Poor defending early game
sad.gif No proper harrassment on his econ until the very end

Comments- From the start you had, it didnt look too hopefull for you but once you began to pump out wargs, you started to to fend off his attacks and regain some map control. Your first proper encounter happened along the north ridge, where he had 3 combos and rohirrim v your wargs, this is the first timeyou made the most of the wargs true strength and knew exactly what they were capable of. Once he began to spam out his elves, you was more then ready for his attack and you dealt with it without taking too many casualties and then pressed on to take down his castle. You lef this citadel though, because you knew he was remaking Aragorn, and that was the most determined attempt at getting the balrog ive seen in a long time! You could if finished it sooner, but i suppose you was very determined for Rog.

Rating- 6

^SINI5T3R^ (Rohan)

BO- 2 farms in, Merry, 3 farms out
PP- Draft--> Heal--> Elves--> Anduril-->Ents
Strat- Peasent spam--> Rohirrim--> Combos--> Upgrades--> Elves--> Fire--> Aragorn--> Theoden--> Elves


Pros
smile.gif Excellent early harrassment
smile.gif Great creeping (7/10)
smile.gif Good defending of castle - you held him off for a while

Cons
sad.gif Left your starting combos alone, without leadership or upgrades, and you knew he had alot of wargs - they will get slaughtered without ld
sad.gif Ran both your leadership providing heroes out of range from your elves in your first castle defence
sad.gif Didn't destroy armoury for a long time after all the grades were purchased
sad.gif Unit micro wasnt the best

Comments- Your starting game was excellent and you had him pressed back and gained most of the map early. Once you was happy about your MC you began to creep and you done great in getting 7/10 creeps and this helped you greatly with the added PP and cash. You chose to go for fast combos, which may of been a goodidea if you took the timeto consider the amount of wargs he had and actually waited for some ld for them or atleast some upgrades. I can't understand why you didnt get "Elven wood" PP because this would of helpedyou greatly early game and possibly saved your combos. You would of also forced him to purchase his land then delaying his rain pp. Once he began to seige you, you did make a good attempt at defending but your micro wasnt too good, and you ran your heroes out of LD several time, allowing his units to OP yours. You did do very well early game but began to make game costly mistakes mid/late game.

Rating- 5

Final Comments

A very interesting game to watch, where it didnt look the best for Isen early game, and then evened out mid game and finally was tilted in Isens favour. For any player who enjoy isen v rohan games, this is a deffinate must watch. Both played well, but Isen just made a good comeback from his poor start. In the end Isen was determined for Balrog, so there isn't much need to watch the very very end.

Overall Rating- 6
Entertainment- 6.5


Promoted to RoTW contender
