Strategy

2 farms start > victoire rush (top-mid) > 2 rohirrim > theoden > Aragorn > upgrades > mass peasants > ents
Tops
  • used hobbit to take care of berzerkers
  • creeping (4/6)
  • aggressive harassment with 2 rohirrim got you map control
  • reached glorious charge
  • kept pressuring him with one attack after the other
Tips
  • left gate open so he could sneak in multiple times
  • first base raid was executed poorly, lost mass peasants and Aragorn
  • poor enting, support your moots and summons with rohirrims or combo’s but don’t send them in alone
  • imo should have went combo’s earlier instead of just peasants, their attacks got owned by wargs
  • lost Aragorn twice, don't send him to the enemy base alone
  • lost rohirrims to labourers laugh.gif
Comments

You did a good job with harassment and got mapcontrol, thanks to that you could launch one attack after the other. Unfortunately, these attacks were poorly executed and all were repelled and fed the opponent PP’s so he could get ballrog fast. You got AotD and still succeeded in winning easily but the game didn’t have to take this long. Work on how you micro the baseraids.

Strategy

pit start > uruk spam > pikes > wargs > upgrades > lurtz > combo’s
Tops
  • strong early game, you defended well and took his economy down with 5 uruks strat
  • sneaked some pikes and berzerkers in his camp and took down four buildings
  • PP route straight to ballrog, you got him relatively fast
Tips
  • used industry on 2 furnaces
  • waited very long with creeping
  • poor harassment in MG. trained some more pikes or wargs in order to take away his map control, his horses can’t be everywhere
  • destroy towers before they loose half their hit points
  • lost Lurtz when he tried to take on FU rohirrim and theoden without support
  • could have used palantir to finish retreating horses, could have saved you some trouble
Comments

You lost this game because your harassment was lacking. Also, when you were going to attack the northern outpost I expected a game turn as you almost had Ballrog and a big balanced army, but it worked out terribly. I’m sure you can do better, just think when you are in such a situation.

A lot of action in this game. There were also some big fights, to there were alot of mistakes in them. The replay shows how to keep pressure on your opponent well.
