    Re: STOPING ANDERS WARTHOGS WITH CUTTER

    Noctis:

    I wouldn't really suggest marines because they statistically fail against warthogs. Just start off with 2 diagonal turrets, slap railguns on them, and turtle up until you get some tanks out.

    Edit:  And then prepare to get analraped by gremlins.  Because Cutter has such a failure for a unique unit. 

    1st part: Marines get kited bad by the Chain gun hogs.

    2nd part: Gremlins are why Anders is OP vs Anybody 1v1

    I've beaten some good Anders players as Cutter using this strat, there's nothing wrong with it.  Elephants do a decent enough job against warthogs, they have a lot of hp.  The purpose isn't to fight the hogs using it though, it's to capture hooks more than twice as fast as the Anders player. 

    If I see them making spartans, I'll put one in it, so they would be using just as much money up as me.  You need to make an elephant on certain maps against Anders, otherwise you'll have no chance...Have you ever fought a top Cutter player as Anders on Blood River.  It's very hard because of the elephant.   

    I have had it happen to me were they make an elephant but after reading this post I can see how it'd be useful, I personally wouldnt do it unless it's blood river or BG liek you said

    Yeah, those are the only two good maps for Cutter vs. UNSC anyway.  Cutter and BC dominate on Blood River (PoR is decent too) and Blood Gulch is perfect for the elephant/barracks strat.

    I need to change my sig but so far my 1v1 record is 38-2 my loses were to the same person, EDK jesus or somthing and it was on Blood river, I hate facing covie on that map, the guy was a *** to =(

    my other two losses with anders is in 2v2 against hella good players.

    so far today though if you look at leader wins monthly I have 27 game played and 27 games won and a skill level of 45 and a 39 1v1 TS =D

    On maps like Blood Gulch or Blood River, you should be at least equal with Anders or have the advantage.  I usually will make one elephant on BG as well as a barracks.  The elephant will clear out one side's hooks while flamers from my barracks will try to take the other side's hooks.  If you can do this, you'll have plenty of money to afford turrets, and be able to make counter units to gauss/gremlins.   

     

    On maps without lots of hooks, a good Cutter will have a very tough time against a good Anders.  Anders can harass early forcing Cutter to turtle, and Anders can go expanding around the map.  Regardless of where you are playing, map control is essential. 

    NEVER EVER make an elephant against anders, it wont work out well =/

    you either need to put a spartan in it or lose aswell meaing a elephant is a 700$ investment early game along with the marines spawned from it it is VERY costly and takes to long to pay off and it's obvious were the elephant is, near hooks, so I can either jack it or I kill it with hogs. buildings an elepahnt will lose you the game trust me, if you lose it you almost cant win unless some lucky break of a random arby coming and killing all of anders hogs come.

    a strat that will somtimes work is getting hogs yourself, with other leaders they can get gunner before anders and you do that and harrass anders hogs before they get gunner and you can even kill all of them meaning anders 2 minutes behind getting 4 more hogs. it will work from time to time and if your hogs are losing then pull them back and use them to get hooks, it's like an elephant without as much as expense =D

    how does cutter/forge get gunner before anders? am i being sleepy/stupid again or is this someting i didnt know? or are u being stupid ? :P lol

    teach me oh great muffin :L

    also u gotta 1v1 me sometime! i keep inviting u to party/game... but nothing... just cus im english :L

    whats ur gt?

    and also 4 gunner hogs by 2 min is impossible sorry.

    more like 3 gunner hogs at 2:25 or 4 gunner hogs at 2:55

    22 second build.

    22x3 = 66

    66 seconds = 1 minute 6 seconds.

    You can have an SP-R by this time.  30 seconds for Gunner = 4 gunner hogs before 2 minutes.

    NOTE: For idiots, you start with a warthog.  So 3+1 = 4

    EDIT: Sorry, Warthog is like what--25 seconds now?

    25x3 = 75

    75 = 1 minute 15 seconds.  You can have SP-R by this time too, gunner takes what, 30 seconds? That's still 4 gunner hogs at 2 minutes.

    They don't, lol.  A good Anders player will usually go reactor second, and since gunner researches faster for her, she will get gunner first.  If you go reactor first and have so much confidence in finding their hogs without them running away, you aren't a very good player.

    also you will have 3 hogs and anders will have four but becuase you get it earlier just ram one hog and it dies instantly and then harrss the others and you can kill them all of enough to give them a handi-cap and not you.

    As Forge, you can't get close to outproducing Anders at the start.  Heavy Supply pads are an extra 125 each, gunner is an extra 125, and the techs research slower.  As Cutter, you don't have the money spent on heavy supply pads slowing you down, but you still can't expect to get gunner before them and equal hogs.

    you dont outproduce hogs with a forge or cutter just get them at the start and they can get it jsut as fast, with forge & cutter do the anders build and get gunner for cutter it works well and for forge once you reasearch gunner you blow-up the reactor and then get another SUpplie pad and your back on track as forge but except with hogs.

    I never said you were bad.  You beat me once on release, which is one of my least favorite maps because of the lack of space and hooks.  It was also an Anders mirror, and I hardly ever play using her.  I beat you Arby vs. Prophet on Blood Gulch, I think my leader had a huge disadvantage that game. :P  And when did you beat skiis?  He never said he lost to you. 

     

    EDIT:  Skiis and I also destroyed you and Agro in that 2v2 tournament 2 - 0.  I consider myself a better team player anyway. :P

    I beat him yesterday, I'll try to find the link but it was way to many games ago I think, and I dont remember facing your arby as POr but I'll take your word for it =/

    and you put in your post "your not a very good player" -_-

    anway I wouldnt mind facing you in some more anders mirrior matches or any other combo you wish or we could 2v2 together if 1's arent your thing.

    EDIT: it was POR forge vs arby anders, hardly a fair fight but I must admit we for ruined beyond reason.

    Anders is better early game with hogs, everyone knows that.  My point was that you shouldn't waste money trying to beat them with their own leader's gameplan.
