I watched it finally. Its hard to give a proper rating for this replay since its highly entertaining at mid game with all the drops while there is a serious lack of micro and a huge amount of mistakes overall.
I found the mid/end game nice to see. That's the pervert thing with multiple paladin drops : it looks so nice but in the other way usa waste so much units doing this and loose also some money. At the end game stats, usa collected nearly as much as china so they should have had their chance to win this, but too many paladins were wasted and Usa never had the forces to counter the Skynny's gats.
It would have been much more safe to camp in the middle for usa and use the buildings to defend and collect enough money there. Of course it wouldn't have been nice to see, and no HoF, but usa would have won, which is normally the goal for the usa player.
Skynny played very well in mid/late game. I just didn't understand why he went for migs after the base swap and totally stopped the gat/th pressure at usa base. This permits usa to drop as much they wanted as they wasn't under pressure.
On another side, the beginning was totally shoking, that was by far the worst part of the game. The 2 sup/2wf bo is the worst bo china can do against usa, so selling those wf's and spamming th's just after is even worse cause it totally kill china's eco and they waste their early game advantage. Also 2 gats + 1 TC is not enough imo to defeat the usa's defence, it would have needed 1 more gat at least. Hopefully for skynny, this usa player never heard about ambulances nor md's to defend his base and so usa's defence was as easy to kill as a knife in butter.
Normally usa could have defend theirself way longer before they will loose their base (or even not loosing their base if they can micro a bit), and then its over for china after some minutes.
4/10 for the start. 8/10 max for the mid/late game as both players started to play much better there.
