He seriously would've had a way better chance if he decided to pull the hero Venom back instead of just wasting it. There was no way in hell that it had enough time left under AP AA fire to grab the TC, and it would've been a massive asset in the final engagement.

[@kolyatoystv9653]

Oh, this game was developed in 2007, but it still looks great - now i talk about the technologies, which EA made for this game, because it really realistic, maybe shadows are pixelized, but they got the laws, which are active in real life, and the game following it - that why the game looks so realistic

[@wowDogeGaming464]

Is there a reason that the players don't focus on base building? When I play I tend to hold up in my base, with a turtle play style, is that too slow to work at a higher level?

[@JohnSmith-kj3jy]

DogeGaming if you don't build combat units, you'll give the opponent freedom to expand and take more tiberium fields, eventually allowing him to steamroll you with more economy and units

[@wowDogeGaming464]

Joseph Ong ahh, I see! From what I've seen there's a huge amount of Micromanagment required for tactics like that, any tips on becoming better at micro'ing?

[@JohnSmith-kj3jy]

DogeGaming I don't play the game myself :( you can try asking those active players in gamereplays to help u! But it's mostly about macro management

[@TheAftermathz]

I'm not a pro but basically all RTS game needs a balance on offence and defence. And many of them encourages and rewards aggressive playing style. Just look at any other RTS games pro scene and you will notice a pattern. Offence is the best defence holds true here, and that is why many mid-level players like to rush. The word you are looking for is macro. If I'm not mistaken, micro is how well you are controlling a single type of units. Those aren't as important as macro, as you see those 2 pros controlling stuffs all over the map. The only way to improve your micro and macro is to practise. Just like how people learn to play the piano and other instruments - some people will find it easy while others find it hard to master. Once controlling become muscle memory, your brain can focus on tactics and the grand picture - the macro part of the game.

[@kodan7879]

Arnab Mukherjee Yeah I did play with Kan's Wrath a bit back then. I honestly never liked them but I tought they can be usefull.

[@Toast_94]

They lack flame tanks or black hand troops so they're not able to flame rush like the other Nod factions. Unlike the laser upgrade, their supercharged particle beam does not cover scorpion tanks or buggies so their scorpion tank spam is much weaker in the late game. Unlike the black hand, this equivalent upgrade does not effect their awakened either which makes their infantry really fall off in the late game by comparison. Essentially; worse early game, worse late game, worse infantry than what the black hand have available (not entirely relevant but GDI sniper squads are even more effective against MoK infantry than any other). Their awakened are nice to have early on but in the late game you're better off with vanilla Nod, they can pretty much do all the same things arguably better.

[@ShadowHunter120]

Marked of kane one of worst? You haven't seen what early enlightened rushing can do with their beams and emps...
