Thrilling game showing an extremely aggressive Gla player giving a good Usa player a hard time surviving. Gla showed great macro, at some points bad micro, though, whereas Usa microed extremely well. Overall a very entertaining and highly skilled match in which Usa was a bit unlucky.

Awesome start, aggressive rpg techs, quick terrortechs whilst getting mapcontrol, both oil derricks, a secondary arms dealer and then a palace. Good use of scorpions and buggies, you countered his rockvees and paladins very, very well. Nice terrortechs later on, gave him a hard time. You got up some black markets in time -unlike most Gla players- and therefore didn't get into deep troubles later on.
Points for Improvement
At some points you were just wasting units, e.g that one garrisoned missile defender in the middle killed lots of units. Also, never evacuate from tunnels that are under attack.. you lost quite many units to that. I also was missing a Command Centre for rebel ambush.

Your start can be summed up as art of survival. You microed your rockvees very well after that, your laserlock was very good, and kept holding him back until you could garrison units in the middle, get up an airfield and start attacking him. Good mixing and micro afterwards as you kept holding him back despite him having an economic advantage.
Points for Improvement
Should have pushed more for the middle with flashbang rangers to keep him busy and prevent him from attacking your base from all sides. I think that a well used Burton later on could have stopped his buggies, despite him having Kell as you also had snipers.. well before you lost your rockvees to his buggies.
I stopped his initial rush then just watch.

Good micro and map awareness from USA, kinda weak unit mix by GLA and too much wasted units by him. Nice TT harassment though. Was obvious whos gonna win when GLA had middle while USA had almost nothing left, guess that was the reason why the game just ended?
7.0/10 due to GLA just pushing USA back with Scorp spam, although it seemed to be effective in this case. Wasn`t equal enough to receive a better rating imo.
-E- Missed some upgrades like AP bullest from GLA as well. Late Palace as well. USA didn`t really have the chance to upgrade anything.
