This was the tourny final and i knew that INF1R3's Gobs must be pretty good, i'd never played against him before but i had heard about his gob spam ph34r.gif

Endless action makes this game pretty good to watch i think smile.gif

Review please drol.gif

PoW|Bikini vs INFIR3

PoW|Bikini


For starters a great use of soldiers throughout the game, good defence and some pretty good offense using clumping well and stance usage was superb. Good job very late game with the use of rohirrum with FB and earthquake to take out the base. On the downside, you never expanded very much early game which needs to be done so your pop cap will keep high and soldiers can keep spamming. The game lasted way too long for you, with earthquake pretty fast the game should have ended quite quickly. It took you way too long to get upgrades which against a gob spam friendly opponent would've been gg within half hour. Your use of earthquake was good, but use of AotD needs some work as you well know now they can't destroy structures at all and are only used for army killers. I'm sure you know where to go to check out some good men replays but here's a link to check out here.


Rating: 6/10



INFIR3


Well your harassment early game was amazing, and if you weren't facing a dual rax men player it would definitely work quite well. Your usage of stances and clumping was superb, but you did have quite a few flaws. Against men who are dual rax, the worste thing in BT1.2 is to feed him power points by spamming goblin warriors as you did. If you had, but, two-three trolls early game on top of 5-6 goblin warriors you could've won the game early on as CTs dominate SoG with a tree and goblins with poison can rape pikes quite well. If you don't prefer CTs then spider riders against a spam happy motw player could've reaked some damage. Your use of balrog in the end needs some work as well, as he's not fast enough as you probably know now to chase down soldiers as well as calvary. With your goblin kings stick at the men's base you could've easily placed balrog there and destroyed most every building he had and possibly taken out the men's citadel had he not upgraded it. Again your early harassment was great but need to work on mixing units a lot more as goblin warriors are weak in combat without something helping them. I'm sure you too know where to look for some good advice on 1.2 but here's the link

Thanks for the review it was good but i think the scores are wrong imo, they're just to low. I would have given myself a 6 and Infire probably a 6 or 7. That gob strat owns and his expansion was amazing.

I give people a 3 who don't even know what stances are laugh.gif

idk, i didn't watch the rep, but most of the rr's give 3-4's for good games now, amazing games are 5ish-6... idk everyone's ratings are so wierd its really hard to tell tbh.

it'd be nice if there would be more of a consistency with the ratings.

i might watch the rep, cuz im curious, but the ratings are so different from everyone its pretty hard to tell what means what anymore... idk, i hope rr's dont take offensive to this.

Well in no way were u a 6-7, possibly a 5 but no more because u NEVER mixed ur units till mid-late game.

You never got ups till 50 minutes into the game, INFIR3 just gave u PP as u had nearly EVERY pp imaginable and he had half of his because he never got strong units just spammed and gave u pp. You were cashfloating in the 4-5k range late game when the game wasn't even close to being over and then got aragorn whom died not 5 minutes after buying him...

whatever gandy is right, i get games voted in the 3-4 range that have more mixed units and all around more exciting looking game than this since the first half our was u sending same soldiers + boromir to his base and him killing them and then him sending a butt load of goblin warriors to ur base and them all dieing and you getting 5-10 powerpoints in the process and same thing over again

That's what I thought actually:- spam vs spam. Earlier stables or spider pit would have notched up the score I feel tongue.gif
