This was a quickmatch game of Mordor vs. Elves. I started off preparing for a land battle... then wondered why I wasn't finding any of my opponent's buildings. Watch and see what happened!
~Kester(Mordor) vs ChronusDyre (Elves)~
Played on Forlindon
---------------
Player : Kester
BO: Slaughter House (x2),Orcpits (x2),Orc Warriors (x2),Orc Archers.
Positives
[+]Early Creeping ! You got the point of the 1.05 patch very quickly
[+]Early Catapults.
[+]Captured the Outpost.
[+]Map Control ( duh ! )
[=]You improved your micromanaging this time ! You used stances this time.Keep improving !
[=]If you have sent a single Orc battalion against his unprotected base you could have destroyed his barracks & Mallorn Trees more earlier.
Negatives
[-]You should built the first 2 Orcpits behind your fortress and not in the frontline !
[-]Spend money to transport ships. Fellbeasts and Bombards were enough to destroy him IMO.
Player Summary :
You were vastly improved this time ! Your micromanaging wasn't very good but it was way better than your previous matches ! Jus learn to switch stances (from defensive (hotkey "D") to aggressive ( hotkey "G") and vice-versa).
About the match . You faced an opponent who choose a completely (stupid IMO) tactic and so , you didn't face any serious problems with beating him.The only thing I didn't like is you building's locations (the 2 Orcpits) and the fact you played
[-]Silly strategy at all ! And especially against Mordor !
[-]Stances ? Micromanaging ?
[-]No aggressive at all.
[-]At least while waiting for your first transport you should have sent someone to capture an Outpost.
Player Summary :
"Huh" ? That's what I thought when I see you landing on the island at the southwest corner and do creeping. I bet you were thinking to establish a base there and with the naval control Kester would have no way to beat you. That was a mistake of course.You should not do that thing against Mordor.
Rating : 1.5/5
---------------
Match Rating : 2.5/5
The Elven player didn't play well but this is a replay worth to watch. I bet most of you have thought ,when you are playing Forlindon ,to send a boat on the southwestern island and establish a base there. Check that replay. It will be useful to you ;)
