[C&C3: Kane's Wrath] GDI Strategy - A New Rig Rush to Crack the Scrin Defense

[@ЯношБан]

Once again a reminder: there was a typo made by the developers in the naming of "AP ammo" upgrade where it was intended to be called "AE ammo", where "AE" would stand for "Anti-Everything"

[@masterleafcnc]

Another funny typo made by the developers is "statis". They called it that in the game files, but its real spelling is "stasis"

[@ЯношБан]

@@masterleafcnc (mine was actually a joke based on how AP ammo is really good against anything, but okay lol)

[@Schofield101]

Great game! Love some RIG action, but as you commented, your opponent's micro was excellent. Fun to watch.

[@masterleafcnc]

Glad you enjoyed it - people seem to like this format more

[@acjohn6995]

Scrin micro was phenomenal; he was JUST keeping his units out of reach of your fire, and pulling them back at the last second to preserve them. What a match.

[@masterleafcnc]

I imagine against Scrin it would be even better, as they don't have Shard Walkers and Shielded Harvesters. On a side note, the AP Ammo bonuses are huge. In the case of the apc the damage goes from 36 to 72 gun damage per shot. (144 vs 288 damage per clip)

[@blackdeviator129]

its awesome that your always doing new strats and trying things - always entertaining watching you play-thanks

[@etherealfox9672]

That Lit Music with the Combo of Zone Shatterers and Rigs was so awesome!

[@TehGamerPro]

13:50 Wooo! you finally used the zone shatterer ability :P. It's usually so suboptimal but I can never resist using it personally.

[@masterleafcnc]

I just wish the projectile doesnt get cancelled if the shatterer dies before it reaches target...

[@jisharagu]

Man, the soundtrack in perfect. Also your content is incredible. Thanks for the great videos.

[@KF1]

Great play by both sides. He held out really well. Not many early kills but still disrupted the harvesters and forced 15 min of mad micro which was probably exhausting to maintain for so long.

[@BiscuitHead22]

"Pro" tip: for those RTSes that don't feature CnC-style right click camera panning/scrolling, you can either use the arrow keys (which sucks) or do what I do: bind the camera movement keys to your typical "FPS" movement layout (WASD for righties) either directly or use key remapping software (I use synapse because that's my hardware) for games that don't support rebinding the controls. It's not as precise as CnC panning, but it's not terrible. It's made the Blizzard games far more tolerable for me, especially considering their version of mouse panning done with the middle click by default sucks in comparison.

[@masterleafcnc]

Thats an interesting idea, I'll give it a shot tonight. Thanks!

[@peterpeterson4800]

17:05 damn that one shatterer went elite right before it died. Imagine a heroic shatterer.

[@Marxon1134]

Edge scroll is such an old part of the genre and its age shows.

[@xiyalocan8535]

You're uploading bangers these days! P.S: why did you keep moving the aircraft in and out during engagements?

[@lolghp299]

I believe it was to snipe dev tanks but shard walkers are closing by so he is pulling back orcas but then when the shard walkers fall back because of zone shatters leaf moves orcas into position to try and snipe some dev tanks You can see that in 16:16

[@xiyalocan8535]

@@lolghp299 oh I see, thanks!

[@siikliidii3380]

its called micro bro lol

[@vadymkvasha4556]

did not expect to hear "insufficient founds" from your game))

[@tellis9844]

You should send grenadier APCs along too to attack his power plants and cancel out the defences.

[@Marxon1134]

Gonna be real with you I NEED a playlist of the songs you play in the background of these casts and vods.

[@feyanpulman010]

Love your vids Leaf. Awesome new strategies!

[@chadmorris9940]

What is this music? Pretty awesome 😎

[@whyysobritish1805]

For age of empires 4 to avoid edge scrolling u just double tap hotkeys to jump to a building/grouped set of units. So u can literally just teleport around the map

[@finix7419]

lol ? you can literally do all of that in c&c 3 game made in 2006

[@robthenorm]

11:25 multi reverse inf pick up aborted for immortal scout with zocom orca tech run worth it? just an optional guess

[@infoharvester]

was this a rocket/apc/ap ammo demo or a shatterer tank demo?

[@wizrom3046]

For what you spent on airports and shatterers you could have gone tier 3 early and put zone troopers in the APCs. With their huge range and hitting power against scrin tanks (and buildings) it would have been over pretty quick. They also hero up real quick inside the APCs.

[@Kalenz1234]

Why isn't the scrin building seeker tanks?

[@brettcoombs2907]

Haven't watched this yet, but how can I not like this?

[@etherealfox9672]

Masterleaf. I wonder if the carryall also has the same strat as the Ox transport? If so would you enjoying playing Nod Or Marked of Kane to use them it in a Vid?

[@singapore_de]

its 2023, and Leaf is promoting reckoner strategies

[@WajidKhan-sr3rt]

Off topic. But is there a way to play Kane’s Wrath campaign using GDI faction?? Maybe there is some type of Mod that can be used to play the campaign as GDI instead of Nod ?? Let me know if anyone knows. Please. Thx PS Masterleaf I have been watching a lot of your games on Sybert’s channel. Fantastic stuff. 👏

[@mzamomathe3723]

Absolutely love this game

[@sasabalta168]

I like this videos. Thanks man. Keep going

[@RusakovLA]

Can anyone suggest any single player KW maps/mods or even campaigns for GDI?

[@kaz7720]

OP ammo

[@masterleafcnc]

It´s the answer to all of gdi´s problems, a 100% upgrade buff.

[@jonasduchateau8619]

How do i get maps and mods ? I tried some tutorials but none work

[@masterleafcnc]

My 4k mod uses an installer , and the 1.02+ map packs on command post cgf-uploads.net also use installers. Installing mods manually is a pain true.

[@looinrims]

Could you improve this with GDI Airborne veteran rockets or is that too expensive? Looks like it’s a razor thin money situation but there was a humble 7-8 rifles on the field in fairness

[@showlottathings]

maybe zone troopers in the apcs to increase the margins

[@looinrims]

@@showlottathings you can’t have zones that early

[@AstralAshLyrae]

is this patch 1.02 or 1.03? or does it work in both?

[@masterleafcnc]

1.02+. I don't play 1.03 as it strives too far from the vanilla game.

[@silentx]

@@masterleafcnc how so?

[@PlamenMonev]

leaf makes it look easy

[@QueenDaenerysTargaryen]

AP ammo? They should have incindary ammunition. 🔥🔥🔥

[@grimmshredsanguinus2915]

maybe the militants

[@zanesmith666]

how did youtube know i downloaded this

[@jbtx910]

1:54 welcome to the xbox port

[@chrisryan4939]

More then the ONE way to scroll other then the ONE way you said in Age. Not a fan of the game so far and I'm an AOE2 fan. Love Kane's Wrath as well.. use the arrow keys and up the sensitivity???

[@masterleafcnc]

Middle mouse button for drag scrolling is very inferior to the right click scrolling in this game. Arrow keys and edge scrolling dont offer as precise camera panning. It's also considerably more comfortable with right click scrolling, because you dont need to move your mouse much during the match for moving the camera.

[@chrisryan4939]

Your right : )

[@jcj1888]

seems required a lot of micro control :(

[@dgvanz1155]

Hammer heads are better than Orcas. Try using them next time.

[@timofiy98]

orcas better for burst anti-tank and anti-buildings damage

[@antonpretorius2470]

That was entertaining.
