Strategy for the win? this game is so stupid

then make the counter for that unit, if theres nothing but them, then ur good

Sometimes its best just to not ask...
Halt2010 = gt, add me if u want

There is no timeline...time isn't made out of liinnness, its made out of circles -.-
Thats why clocks are round

in 1v1 thats one thing but in 2v2 or 3v3 theres just nothing you can do. its so ridiculous that people dont want to use actual strategy and tactics and have a diverse army. theyd rather just make 1 billion hawks or grizzlies or whatever their uber unit is and just attack.

That does not change the fact that it remains boring as hell.
It's amazing how people always ruin the fun for each other. It's like there's a constant competition going on to annoy other people.

E: Yeah, what the above post said.

I agree. If i wanted to use just one unit type, i would have stayed on Halo 3 and just used spartans. 

Those sorts of games don't 'ruin the fun' for everyone. I was in a game the other day, 3v3, and we got zergrushed by Scorpions that turned into Grizzlies about halfway through the attack. My teammates got obliterated, but I built up Cobras and fended off 20-30 Grizzlies twice. That was the most fun I've ever had in Halo Wars yet, and actually the most fun I've had in an RTS. My dead teammates even got a hoot out of it, it was in general a good time. Except maybe for the other team who kept getting devastated when they'd attack.

 Build counter units, you can fend off even the most overwhelming of foes with carefully crafted counter-strategy. I know it's overstated, but it works. For the most part, people focus on killing the base, so tanks and hawks are of course the first choices.

Well im glad you can have fun controlling one unit type and losing matches because people are pussies. 

ï like play in skirmish with army of different units but in MM thats not going to happen

First you complain about rushin,  and now its about long games, when you face a long game you can figure out that there will be a hawk/grizzly/scarab/vulture/odst spam, really figure out some counters.

Amen, i was anders today and was trying to get to Hawks, the BC attacked my warthogs with a bunch of banshees, and my second base was also taken, while he was constructing his 3rd base (my second) I made 10 wolverines, i was able to kill the chief, about 20 banshees and his second base only losing 6.

Hmm... so what could you possibly deduce from that?  Oh maybe its the fact that this is the only strategy game that has only 2 outcomes for every single match. Its so predictable its not even funny. You either get rushed  or you get spammed by uber units. No other strategy game is like that. in other strategy games theres tons of different strategies and tactics that require you to THINK instead of just spam. But this game requires no thought when you play like that... and 90% of the community does play like that. Which is retarded because we have to hope that the 10% of the people that actually like to have fun will get matched up together.

You're absolutely right. There are only 2 outcomes, you win or you lose. You are simply playing against people who want to win as quickly as possible rather than have a good time. Look me up I'll give you a good fight that will FORCE you to build a startegy. In the end, if those are the opponents you are getting matched up with, prove to them yourself, by beating them, that their strategy is not working.

The game isn't even a week old! How can you possibly know that new, and better strategies won't be developed?

Build the counter unit, and quite a few, and you will crush the enemy.  It's fun to see a few Wolverines come out of a battle level 4 because they crushed the Hawks.

I doubt you will reach the highest level there is and still see this horrible strategy.  Play against newbs, yeah, you will see this, but you won't against higher levels.
