This game...

we make a good team.

I was air and klon lost his factory. I held on then killed norths factory to stop north raiding and they had firm grip in middle and had 3 funnels and i still held on and even tac nuked a singu and even protected klons krow for so long with flak cannon,rapier and planes and even saved him when we was close to death when he said GG. Also killed one of the funnelwebs. Stopped the dante advance which resulted in its death. Also blew up a silo. Not to mention early game. I was the one who was reclaiming with builders like crazy to keep us going till klon could recover fully.

Lastly learn to count. I made more then 3 mexes.

The circumstances for Funnelwebs were really bad. Shield balls regenerate so you cannot use the drones to slowly pick at them, and Krows simply counter it (just like they do every other strider below Det).

Felon+ aspis+ outlaw+ krow is very powerful against funnelwbs. Felon kills the drones and krow does the funnyweb killing. Well playid!

I consider this one of the best games in the tourney. Hard game for team 2 and very nice and strong comeback

They not useless, they are much better balanced and they had 0 support for the funnels basically if you watch the replay. Lastly me and klon can had the best two counters basically to funnelweb.

Heavy vehicle mass Flak aa and felon zapping the drones. They basically was useless.

All strider should not be that hard to beat if not supported. They need support to be fully utilized.

Lastly I consider the krow to be one of the strongest units in the game due to its ability to do hit and runs with D gun and survive. The main issue here was that they had no real AA to counter the krow.

Lastly they both did a few things quite wrong for example flip wasted units. Norm used tac nukes to try and kill builders and they wasted alot of eco. He sent in raiders and made abit porc.

Issue with flip was that he didn't have a force to support his striders and that was a issue.

Klon maximized his shields by keeping them alive and building them up. We also used rapiers which have great synergy with shields and other units.

They didn't exploit the north opening much. They basically allowed me to reclaim ALOT OF METAL and sooner or later, klon also had alot of reclaim.

So maybe they thought they was going to win in the long run but eventually we broke though.

Obviously there was things with me and klon doing wrong. I should have captured the mexes ahead of me but after seeing klon lose his factory, I didn't want to take that chance of getting my com killed and losing that vital metal income and frankly with my line of sight, it was hard to tell what was going on. I played it safe but I should have really made those mexes but the reclaim was crazy and I was so focused on countering their units. They sent dante, funnels, scrop and even a catapult at me. I was trying to think how can I win this.

About the other games.

Going air in a 2v2 on comet catcher redux was a bad idea. The air advantage vs the naked expanding really cost us in the eco area.

The third game was just basically a fuck up. Maybe I was 2 tired and mentally exhausted by this point. I had been up since 4am.

I learn ALOT from the tourney. Especially in regard to deciding between going air or ground in a 2v2. I learn some new things and it was a great experience and some of the feedback on my gameplay really helped me. I have a tednacy not to use my com since I just consider him a metal maker so I just leave him in the base where he is safe. Obviously you have to take risks as air and still expand which I am aware of and it improved my gameplay.

I do wish that klon had a mic. It might have made a big difference. We basically had no communication but we worked together. we kept a good eye on what was going on and I tried to support klon when needed and same with him.

Maybe thre would have been a different outcome if we both went ground in the other matches. Against julien and manu who both have 2k elo. we had the upper hand I would say in both matches against them but that could just be because they wasn't trying hard because it was a bronze match.
