I'm Relatively new to Zero-K, although i have experience in other strategy games.
but every time i try to beat 2 or more circuit ai's i get rushed by all of them at the same time
(Even though they are in different teams)
does anyone have any tips or tricks that could help me out?

I recommend you play online. You can create a private room and play against Circuit AI there.

This will allow us to watch your games on the website's replay database. You might also find more people willing to help you out in the chat.

When you're playing against Circuit, make sure to use the highest difficulty before stacking multiple of them. This will be truer to the actual game. Fighting against multiple AIs is like fighting against a cheating AI, while a higher difficulty AI uses more advanced strategies.

PS: 1v1 is even better for training.

The AI doesn't cheat in any way, so watching the replay to check what it did is also legitimate.

I would second the suggestion of trying to beat one Brutal AI rather than multiple lower difficulty. The AI isn't that stupid, so it can be difficult to beat it 2v1 without exploiting it.

In lieu of a replay I'll recommend you to make your factory immediately and make a few raiders. Use these to scout and defend (against 2 Circuits you can't attack really early) while your commander expands. After about 200 metal of raiders throw in a constructor for economy or factory assisting. Make radar reasonably early to help your raiders intercept targets. Put a Lotus down if there are a lot of enemy raiders.
