NE question...

When is it a bad idea.. to basically skip archers... and go with the build order that supports getting hunts out fast... because the way it looks.. archers get ***** unless its night, especially to orcs with speed scroll =(|||I like to skip ancient of war altogether and get dual ancients of the wind when I'm going against orc. That requires harassment though.|||yo no offense or anything.. but dual AoWind?... mass DotT isnt that good =P

I mean he could get BLust and own the DotTs real fast. And how would you plan on killing his orc army with DotT?=.=|||hi

i play ne on bnet. skipping archers is not too bad an idea. also, i would like to tell u not to rely on shadowmeld too much to save archers, cuz your oppponent is very likely to purchase dust from the goblin merchant. oh u can do that against elfs too.

opening with hunts definately has its advantages. hunts > grunts, footies, ghouls > archers. however, at late game hunts lose their value and archers add more power to your army, so its about balancing.

normally i get hunts to haraass, kill off a few units/workers and i tech to keep up with my oppponent's pace and build units accordingly.|||Quote:

Yeah mass DotT is apparently useless against orc...|||PH33R TEH BLOODLUSTED ANGERORX FLYING HARMLESSLY IN TEH AIR!!!

Bek basically said it, hunts are normally stronger earlygame unless up against piercing damage, but archers are still usefull-ish lategame, where hunts totally suck.

Personally, I go hunts vs Orc (atm that is, my orc matchup is very unstable), and archers versus anything else.|||Quote:

80% of my solo matches is against nelf... maybe that explains something.

looks like everybody plays nelf nowadays|||Strange, 90% of the matches i played yesterday were against HU. |||Quote:

Coming as soon as DP/Warni can pursuade Rush to come over.





...in other words, it'll take some time.

Edit: And I love playing vs Hum, UD vs Hum is sooo my strongest matchup at the moment. If I had 90% humans I'd be happy as hell.|||Human is my hardest, both as Ne and UD. rifle/caster is a very strong tier 2. At least UD has fiend/stats.|||either normal nuke or Dr if casters are that trouble.|||Just hit'n'run them as soon as you hit lvl 2 and they won't have any units at t2 kekekek|||Any suggestions what to do against ne if the battles lasts till t2? (other than mass gargs -_-)|||Depends on enemy units, but cant go wrong wth some aboms and necrowagon.|||Either mass gargs, or good ol' fiend stat destro ftw!
