Well I guess it wasn't our best performance, but it was a thrilling game with some unexpected turnarounds.

Oh and if you wonder why my T1 factories where often idle at the beginning : I tried to set them on infinite loop like 10 times, but it didn't work (don't know if it was a game problem.. maybe I just clicked twice).

Very nice game. Was expecting it to be over once it became 2v1, but of course SC-Account had the tier 2 advantage, and managed to take out one and cripple the other.

It's a shame that it ended the way it did, I was hoping to see some monkeylords and fatboys biggrin.gif I don't think Loui was expecting Percies to be in there. He probably could've taken a few titans.

9/10 Should be gold really.

Gonna watch this now and make a judgement.

I dont think this is ever a 9/10, id say 7.5/10 max.

Loui played a solid game I thought but he didn't reclaim really at all in the 2nd half of the game which is a huge mistake.

SC-Account I felt had all th advantages but he allowed loui to comeback into the game. Percys really won it for him towards the end, I don't know if it was a concious thought that he made them it seemed he just had alot of random shit spamming at home and some of them happened to be percys.

Limited use of t2 shields from SC-Account and really the whole letting loui back into the game was like having a guy hog tied with a gun to his face then letting him untie himself and punch you in the face before you shoot him.

It still was a fun game but I think even silver was a bit of a push on this on, seen loui play 1000 times better.

We actually agreed on giving this silver with Poita_.
And I actually cant recall watching a better replay recently. I usually dont waste ratings (i give like 7/10 max normally) but I really liked this one.
The main reason why I liked this one was the involvement of all techs (except experimentals). Constant change of map control. Lots of raiding.

Well even thou my performance wasnt on top this game it was enjoyable to play. It felt like sc account had the advantage all the game but i defended decently. I should had upgraded to t3 mex in my base much earlier rather than t2 outside that easily get raided. Also i should had pushed more air and got control of it. In the end the percies got me, but i think i had to use the commander in some extense due to all his t3 heading my way.

I build Titan's for raiding and cause they are good vs T2 and T1 (usually better then Percis) and I build Percis as soon as I see some Loyalists as Loyalists > Titans. Was nothing random here.
Loui came back, that's right I had the chance to kill him with my T2 army, but it was 2v1 at this point and I decided to kill Djinn and lost the major part of my army. Only 9 Pillars survived cause I microed them under a mobile shield and I didn't realise that they where down to ~80 HP (should sent them into my base and reclaim them instead of attacking with them).
Later I tried to get T3 air and air superiority to snipe him, but he got T3 air so fast so I decided to go for some broadswords and ASFs instead.
At that point I thought going for a decent Perci troup would be the best way to beat his army and get through his defense.
The only solution I see which might would have been better is going for more eco earlier upgrade more outer extractors way earlier and guard them + stop raiding, tech up T3 extractors in my base to T3 to get a outclassing army. Not sure if this would work as I also allow my opponent to get a good eco and make a plan to beat me. I doubt I could have kept him from leaving his base and go for heavy ECO.

I know that I didn't play perfect, but what else could I have done to end it earlier after the game turned into 2v1/1v1?
