Dwarves/[BGS]Rosas & MotW/sCHmiddiii - East


Overview:

A pretty good game with a good amount of action and excitement. sCHmiddiii went for a Soldier spam, his ally Rosas for a Guardian rush vs JuanRing's Uruk start and Relatine's Goblin spam. JR pretty much had the upper hand for a good while, until at about late game when the Dwarven armies became larger and larger and also more powerful plus KoDA entered the battlefield. JR still put up quite a fight and it wasn't after a long struggle that Juan lost his Fortress, but that wasn't the end. However, the KoDA were too OP to fight off and Relatine soon had to face the same thing and he lost his base. Then it became a 2v1 in which there wasn't much hope for Juan, but it still took a while for BGS to defeat him. Overall, still quite an entertaining game and a RotW Contender.


Goblins/JR|Relatine & Isengard/JR|JuanRing

Not bad from you, you played better than your opponents, having the upper hand most of the game although it was quite even overall. Unfortunately you lost to KoDA, who were too OP too fight off. There were still a few mistakes, not significant, but they were there. First off, Relatine, don't leave your builders lying around, you did this a couple of times and it will only get them killed. Also, level your caves, they are far more durable and spam Goblins faster. Just level them one by one to negate the effect of having slightly less Goblins for about 30s. Another thing, don't upgrade Goblins with FB unless you're attacking a Fortress. They are still very very weak and you will only lose a lot more expensive units in the same rate. JuanRing and Relatine, get Crows and Bats for your Forts, that upgrade allows you to see 2x more than normally. Last, try not to cashfloat JuanRing, you had a bit of a cashfloat at a few points.

    Tips for improvement
  • Relatine, don't leave your builders lying around, garrison them in tunnel system or put them behind your Fort.
  • Relatine, level your caves one by one to get a much better Goblin spam overall plus more durable caves.
  • Relatine, don't upgrade Goblins with Forged Blades, it's a bit of a waste unless you're attacking a Fortress.
  • Get Crows and Bats for your Forts, it doubles line of sight from 800 to 1600.
  • JuanRing, try not to cashfloat, although it was only a bit, it can still be prevented.


Dwarves/[BGS]Rosas & MotW/sCHmiddiii

Pretty good from you, although you were a bit on the defensive for a good while, you overcame them in the end due to KoDA. There were still a few mistakes. sCHmiddiii, use Shield Wall a lot more, there were innumerable cases where you didn't, thus making your soldiers unnecessarily weaker. Rosas, let the HoW and Mine face so the Guardians can enter the mine a lot faster. Also, try not to cashfloat, you two, you could easily have bought something you thought was useful. Another thing, get Signal Fires a lot earlier, they held the Signal Fires for a while, which gave them an advantage due to faster recharged powers. Rosas, combine Guardian's Charge with Dain's LD, Mighty Rage, RC and aggressive. That will give Guardians a buff of +225% damage and +75% armor, making them extremely powerful.

    Tips for improvement
  • sCHmiddiii, use Shield Wall far more, it gives your units +25% armor and -40% speed, but the speed penalty is negated if you only use it when they're not moving.
  • Rosas, let the HoW and Mine face so units enter the Mine system a lot faster.
  • Get the Signal Fires a lot earlier or at least destroy them, your opponents held both of them for quite a while.
  • Rosas, combine the Guardian's Charge + RC + Mighty Rage + Dain's LD + aggressive, that will give them a huge buff making their damage go up to 260 per individual Guardian and quadrupling their health.

Leadership, rc and mighty rage dont add to each other.

But very nice replay. Fast and lots of action.
