[PLOW]LiMiT (Gondor) v KAN|SONKA (Isengard)

Map - Fords of Isengard



[PLOW]LiMiT (Gondor)

BO- 2 farms in, Pippin, 2 farms out

PP Selection- Land--> Heal--> Elves--> GTW--> Eagles

Strat- Knight--> Faramir--> Boromir--> Combos--> Grades--> Fire-->Gandy--> Bottom op--> Stoneworks--> Market


Pros
smile.gif Good harassment
smile.gif Horse micro
smile.gif Hero micro

Cons
sad.gif Bad starting land placement - it was never used again
sad.gif Slow knights
sad.gif Poor creeping (2/6)
sad.gif Gave Isen alot of PP by harassing the castle without HS

Comments- Poor start, your land placement was bad and you never used that patch again. Your knights were too slow and he had 4 battalions of pikes onto the field before you even began to harass with your knights. Once you got out Faramir and Boromir, you should of been alot more aggressive with them to get them ranked up faster and earlier. You were very fortunate he didn't get wargs until the very very end which weren't used. If he got 4-5 battalions they could of done some hard damage to your army and along with saruman/uruks it could of been a possible gg early on.

Rating- 6

KAN|SONKA (Isengard)

BO- Pit, 2 mills

PP- WC--> Palantir--> Land--> Rain

Strat- 3 uruks--> X-Bows--> Pikes--> Lurtz--> Grades--> Combos--> Seige--> Saruman--> Top op--> Wargs


Pros
smile.gif Extra labourers
smile.gif Scouting ith labourers
smile.gif Map control for a large proportion of the game
smile.gif Fast pikes
smile.gif Good creeping (4/6)
smile.gif Used sarumans "speech craft" ability

Cons
sad.gif Bought forged blades first
sad.gif Poor hero micro
sad.gif Poor ballista protection
sad.gif Failed to kill gandy twice when you could of

Comments- You played great early on and it looked to be an easy game for you but once he set combos onto the field it seemed like you panicked and began to make silly mistakes. Your ballista protection was very poor, and if you had protected them better you could of destroyed him. In the battle next to your castle you could of killed his gandy, he needed like 5 arrows to die and you had took control of half his combos. Next time make wargs much earlier on, you didn't harass that much once he had combos out, wargs would of allowed you to slow him down alot.

Rating- 6

Final Comments

A different BO shown by gondor which did work this time. I would still recommend getting HS though. They are sometimes the game saver for your knights.

Overall Rating- 6
Entertainment- 4
