Im Garbage at this game and i need some advice.

Postby EtaCarinae » Sun 27 May, 2018 6:15 pm

Hello friends. Been playing more and more elite mod lately , trying to get into the groove of it but no matter what i do i cant seem to get the hang of it . i find the early game rather managable but somehow it becomes a huge steam roll against me once , it starts hitting T2. cant for the life of me hit T2 In time or find myself winning alot of my earlier engagements. which then proceeds to be getting bashed. Playing mostly SM/OM Nowadays , ive provided some replays below. Some help would be appreciated :p

Alsoo.. to anyone in those 2V2/3V3 Replays , Plenty sorry i burdened your games.

Watch any Indrid and memorize the tactics.

You have to rely on your tacs to be 1,5 of an unit for the scouts are barely useful in the first engagements and require constant overwatch.

Force Commander is imo the easiest hero to go atm, time the battlecry and throw your SM within and watch enemy early melee units getting overwhelmed.

Early shotguns are also quiet good, but again, watch for the scouts.

ASM are generally the better choice, as they offer a lot more versatiliy then devastators and have more hp.

The safest way to go is going 1 Tac, ASM and Devastator + optional even shotgun scouts. This will get you through T1.

Btw, how many hours have you?

Welcome! I'm also a mediocre player but tbh ask Kira said, definitely play the game more and don't forget to utilize and know your abilities. Piano is also right, 1v1's are important but there's nothing wrong in playing a 3v3 game :p Also, try to be less like Kira sometimes.

edit: and don't use "XDDDD" just use "xdd" instead, looks much better.

Objectively wrong. "xddd" is super NOICE.
