Soupy: Was my thread not good enough>: / jk
Anyways, I wanted to agree:)
Someone please tell me why on Earth Forge can't beat Anders now? Now tell me how Anders will NOT be able to beat Forge in the EXACT same way when gremlins move to tech 2?
Let's say Forge goes warthogs. What on God's green Earth is stopping the Anders player from building a turret? NOTHING. Maybe there will be a slight time in which Anders can't build a hog (if you build the turret early enough), but nothing is stopping her, sure it hurts her economy more than forges, but let's face it, by the time they both get tech 2 Anders dominates in hogs.. gremlins are just kinda icing on the cake.
But really, do Forges go warthogs against Anders? Probably not. Using FJ's logic, you could just build marines every game against Anders and there is NOTHING Anders can do about it... Highly doubtful. If the Forge goes infantry, then he can't move quickly giving Anders all the time in the world to react (maybe even build a barracks :O)
If Forge goes tanks, he has to build up for a tiny bit. Therefore Anders can 1. build up to gremlins, 2. harass the heck out of him. 3. get all map control (if its that kind of map), 4. go air. Anders can do this now, Anders can do this even if the gremlin is tech 2.
Whoever thinks Anders will be UP is crazy. People thought this before when the first two nerfs happened. People thought that the Prophet was going to end up being UP... Two most nerfed leaders = two best leaders in 1v1. (Although Prophet is fine)
yep exactly,
What most anders players don't do (but will when this patch arvies) is just tank spam with early hogs, then gremlins in small numbrs.
Unless you make huge mistakes as Anders (like in this http://www.halowars.com/stats/StatsGame.aspx?Id=85074337-9966-5823-3500-000000000000)
you really shouldn't lose, you have better units than forge, THAT is something that he cannot over come duing the game, its the leader himself
BUT Anders can overcome the eco disadvantage by just upgrading a few SPs, what a lot of people don't seem to get is that If anders upgrades 3 pads, and has 3 normal ones, she will have more res then a Forge with 8HSP, because they take so long to payoff.
ive lost to 1 forge in over 300 games .... and that was a LONG time ago, unless the anders is bad, the forge won't ever win.
