It's been around for a while and I don't think it will be going away anytime soon. Against order it fails pathetically if the order player micros his archers correctly. I haven't found a way to counter this in a CvE though, good thing for you is that tree start isn't a thing.

Would bomb spam not work?

Spamming crawlers, attacking eco, spamming bombers, eclipsor start(Yes I have tried this and won).

How do you manage to get the crawlers in his base, never mind use them as he's only gonna stun them? And he can just run into yours anyway to stun miners. It's really stupid, and it can work vs Order too, but Order's castle archer being AoE is a saving grace.

Well, crawlers can cheese the earths, I've been cheesed so many times I just gave up on the earth start. Use cheesing for stall and build bombers or eclipsor, that's what I think is the counter.

Back from a 4 day holiday with a 12 hour drive. It's not really holiday as it's pretty much working and helping for the cousins wedding though.

Got back sick, vomited a lot. Why this.

Yeah pretty much. It's more like whenever we pull over to take a break I vomit. Also it's not me doing the driving, I'm just 16 and don't even have a license.

That must have been quite a ride, 12 hours in a car...no just no. Even with bathroom breaks and going somewhere to get something to eat, it's still pretty hectic.

And wyz, for multiple units Order castle Archer is a much favored choice but for one unit like a sword for example or an archer then eles Castle Air would be worse seeing as it has a higher DPS and can lock on units, Castle Archer you can dodge and micro your way around it. Just wanted to point that out there.

This sentence makes no sense.

I get motion sickness really easily so being in a car for more than two hours is a fucking nightmare. 12 hours is no joke.

What would 1616 start do against triple earth then?

Can ele really shrug off that much damage and still kill your eco afterwards?

Well considering how I'm asleep 80% of the time and the rest by listening to music it isn't really bad. But yeah too long of a drive is a nightmare.

I used to be stuck in a 18-hour flight before. Probably the worst experience so far.
