Welp. Thanks for checking out the video ya'll. More on the way, so would be honoured if you'd Subscribe for more! kzread.info

Replicator is fantastic -- helps generate crawlers that are lost when they have to sacrifice themselves to get in range...then they restore their numbers. Not only is this great for the obvious reason of adding to the army, but there's a subtle benefit in that more numbers mean that they can draw more damage to let your other units survive longer. It's an amazing offensive AND defensive ability.

Right on man. I HARD regret not picking it up in this match. Next time for sure 😁

@@CobStrategy I always go replicator and speed on these guys

the hp share only works if they are close to other units of same type so if a ball breaks off from it's unit it loses the effect

A pro tip: If you are lucky to get the wasp reinforcements, make sure you research and spawn them. The unit recovery ability in the research center gives you the amount the unit cost before discount. You will be able to spawn a wasp and sell it every turn for an extra 100 supplies. Makes a huge difference over time.

And somewhere all this time in the hangar an unclaimed flamethrower was crying sadly...

this only worked because he was a noob :P a vulcan would have melted all of the crawlers in seconds

Would've definitely had to spam more Fortresses to soak Vulcan's aggro in that case, that's for sure, probably tech into acid for the Crawlers too - and then pray that would be enough 😁

Yes and no, you can then try to let a rhino ran in front of your crawlers so it takes the aggro. If I would've been the opponent I had transitioned to all air and just burned the ground^^

@@zwojack7285 I didn't want to say that the rhino should run right in front of the crawlers, but nearer to the Vulcan, so it turns to the rhino and ignores the crawlers

lucky win if opponent built 1 or 2 Vulcans you straight up lose

yeah, his opponent wasn't playing the rock paper scissors game very well lol

i would have gone into to get the crawlers to lvl 2, its the most cost affective lvl in the game. I always lvl before buying even units. somehow drives me nutts watching you not take your units to lvl 2

that last fortress was a poison tick away from extending the game another round ... quite lucky

2 Vulcans would have destroyed your main Amry with ease. Your opponent was bad.

Imagine one Vulcan.

I like the rts videos its a shame they dont bring the views

Appreciate you stopping by all the more man! And hey, let's see what we can get going over here :) Planning daily Mecha videos for a while to see where we end up!

If your enemy is also using light units or crawlers, you can easily outmatch them for the first two rounds by taking replicator upgrade along and using the tower supply ability to get the extra 2 buffs from research tower in the first round

Loved the vid. Crawlers are hilarious on this, reminds me of the scarab beetles from the mummy movies haha. I am still learning this game, but enjoying it a lot. Also, if we played a drinking game every time you said the word "man" at the end of a sentence, holy shit we would all be in a very bad way hahaha

1:40 "I wonder why we lost on this side but not the other" The left side you place your phoenixes 1 square further back than on the right. Simultaneously, the opponent placed his steel balls 1 square further back on that same side than the other. This is actually a perfect example of how much of a difference even small amount of unit placement makes XD

I've found focusing on upgrading them for 200% damage and the underground blitz makes them really effective early on. I always put two on each far flank and more often than not, one will make it to their tower and debuff them, letting the other crawlers finish them off. Top it off with the ability to replicate and you'll have growing swarms each round and also force him to spend on covering flanks

Crawlers strat = best strat although i always pick replication first. What i've learnt from your video that acid is crazy. Maybe i'll survive hard survival now

Kinda feels bait that you didn't go into replicate with a swarm build... Especially since you just kept putting down lvl1 crawlers instead of using replicate to spawn more of your higher level crawlers 😂

fun game, gg wp

I was dissappointed when you upgraded the fort instead of replicate! DO EET FOR THE MEME!

This looks very much like a zergling rush...

Bro PLEASE upgrade your units. That must be the priority. The cost to value ratio is too good to pass up, especially for something as useless as another lvl 1 squad of the same unit.

you sound like the beardmeetsfood guy....

Never skip the replicate.

"Is replicate any good?" Just read what it does, look at how all your rounds went, and do the math. 2+2 = massive crawler swarm.
