<<< LISTEN TO THE SHOUTCAST WHILE WATCHING >>>

I give BIG BIG props to Dwelf, because he didnt AT lame and strated totaly different. He still needs to improve it a bit (as he sad), but it shows how skilled player he is by developing his own strats. Its true i won the game but this is only because angmar is OP also and his strat is on test version atm, but im sure it works well on every other army. Game was very intresting and very very worth to watch drol.gif

|MaS|AND1 vs PoW|DwelF^


An amazing game between two skilled players. While AND1 started with the Axe Thrower rush, DwelF^ used a completely different strat. The level of entertainment was high because there were a lot of battles for the Inn from where DwelF^ recruited his Men of Dale. Both players showed decent micro and a very good stance usage. A very good game, also very exciting because you don't know who wins until the end and worth the watch if you're looking for how to play with Dwarves without any laming.


|MaS|AND1 - Angmar

Good job. You had a very good Thrall Master spam, which allowed you to counter DwelF's Men of Dale spam very good. You put him under high pressure and overran him with your Axe Throwers. When you got out Hwaldar, you used him very well. You didn't lose him at all, the same goes for Rogash. Well done! When it came to mid-late game where DwelF^ got mass Men of Dale, you could have gotten Snow Trolls, they are very resistant to pierce damage and would have helped you a lot at killing those Men of Dale and later also Axe Throwers. I think your Dark Rangers came way too late, I know it is hard to get them but they really kill any Dwarven unit. Your power point usage was good, you managed to use them always at the right time, e.g. you made his Men of Dale summon useless two times with your Gundabad Orc summon. Your stance usage was good at all.
I also noticed that your builder hiding was excellent, I was searching for your builder but I couldn't find him at all. Well played!


PoW|DwelF^ - Dwarves

Wow. Your strat was simple, but new and unused. It showed that Dwarves can also do other strategies than Axe Thrower laming and still can be powerful. You got Men of Dale very fast, so fast he didn't realize in the very beginning. After he found out, he constantly attacked your Inn and tried to destroy/overtake it and nearly got so far but you somehow managed to keep the Inn. Although you could get cheap and MASS Men of Dale from the Inn, you mixed your units good, which helped you to keep control of the Inn and prevent him from destroying it. You did not get any heroes, which is a big con. You should have gotten King Dain to support your units and to make them as powerful as possible with his leadership and heal. Your Zealot usage though was good, you always aimed for his Thrall Masters and made them very effective, although you stupidly lost one battalion to Rogash where you could have easily saved it. Your overall micro was okay, you ran your battlewagons into pikes sometimes(maybe it's the delay, I don't know) but all in all you didn't make any major mistakes. Your stance usage was excellent, you had always the right stance for your units.
I noticed that you lost your builder where you let him stand next to a Mine Shaft(always put your builders into the Mine Shaft for protecting him). That was the only mistake I saw at all.
Well played and very cool strat!

Great strategy mate, good job wub.gif



I can see this working against any faction, except angmar biggrin.gif



Post a replay doing it against a good player when they are a different faction and it could be a decent replay biggrin.gif

it was as bad, you can c at the very end of the game a realy clear shot at how bad it was... when i got my BW out of my building, it ran straight into pikes.... while i clicked away like 100x but no response. at that point it didn't matter, but more of these things occured.

for example 1 time my pike just didn't listen atalll... wacko.gif

and i said it was ok, cause you can't prevent lagg when you play on laptop, np tho m8 tongue.gif
