Hi reader,

Stupid Giant Massers... what are you having trouble of penetrating? Or as WyzDM says beat his ECO! Feel free to get Giants yourself. Medusas are useful. Jugger Knights tank. Eclipsors are almost useless if he has Shield Wall Speartons.

(sorry bad english) I usually go for dead packs and tower spawner, then the tank skills of dead and poison can take out giants if you take the right advantage by chaos natural cure, in case of merics (so always :P) it's to hard to hit them with deads because giants stop the guts, so i suggest you to eliminate giants with massive damages and then mind merics OR you can make an army composed by deads and some jugger for stop boulders and kill merics, for break the over-defensive strategy (2 walls+3archers) you can always rush with deads while there's your phantom and then retreat to the centre tower when he's close to die OR (if you have the mixed army) you can rush whenever you want and recover ArmorPoints retreating: in attack phase, as jugger are faster than deads, they'll take archers damages, when you retreat, as deads are slower, they'll take the damages instead of jugger. the key of the strategy is the tanky skills of deads. hope to be useful for a clancompanion :) bye

MAGIKILL!!!! ONLY HE WILL BE ABLE TO HELP!!! Seek the electric wall and poison ability. Chaos isn't good vs. giant massers. But I can tell you one thing if ur chaos, NEVER LET THEM GIANT RUSH!!! ATTACK EARLY b4 THE FIRST GIANT IS MADE!!!!

And oh yeah, always have juggernights and eclipsors when attacking early. When you see a giant, use jugger charge ability to get economy. Even though I am just an intermediate in SE I can always give advice!

I think it's the good battle.
I'm new in this game, but for me the strategy is to spam Dead with 2-3 Jugger. YOU musn't wait him to do is giants, you must attack quickly to disturb his miners

Well you could also simply que crawlers claim tower. If opponent is a good player they should attempt to keep you off of tower. Buy crawlers to outnumber his swords on long maps.
If opponent simply buys CA then que 5 bombers if you like. Attempt to harass when you have 3-4 crawlers early making sure to kite his swords. When you've successfully forced the CA. You should be ahead in Eco with tower and miners. Tech to eclipsor. Que two bombers. Buying juggers first will gain you a bit of time but he could do damage and reclaim tower should he defend well which is bad mid game.
If you can do this before hand attempt to get tower spawn.
If opponent tries to go spears and runs for tower que some crawlers.
You'll be surprised what they can do when kited.
When you have 6 miners on gold 2 on mana. You should be able to put out a steady stream of wings and juggers. I would stick to crawlers though since they que faster and can catch most low tier units if bombers don't kill them. And crawlers can do some damage to a retreating giant should they manage to get one out.

For giant massing, I get marrowkai equal to his giants, at least 7 juggernights, 1 giant, and if I can, 1 medusa for poison, rest juggernights and 2 extra marrowkai. Marrowkai stun giants, and use skeleton fists for extreme damage. Giant tank and stun medics, juggernights tank and attack. Medusa poisons for long term damage ans also stone face if any magikill.

But most of the time as chaos you should learn to apply pressure so that a giant wont even be a factor in the game

Chaos giants can be useful aganist non-giant massers. Like get Tower Spawn 2 and let 2 ghost giants weaken them, then when the 3rd one spawn's attack.
Back on topic: Though i have never seen a Giant mass, Must suck so bad, would likely make 80 swordwraths rage :3

a tech into a giant mass is the most successful I've ever done.
applying pressure with archers and spears then going into merics followed by giants and magikill.
only if completely necessary though.
if the opponent does it. albows and giant mix. i usually tend to have just one less giant when facing giant massers.
a magikill should be bought earlier if giants are seen alone. meric massing also seems to counteract most damage from the giants until they get into their mass status.
then get tower spawn 2. if the opponent has successfully built his army
