This, is nice turtling, but easily countered by ranged units like archers.
Plus your opponent sucked. If I saw a giant, I'd spam more albatrosses and swordwraiths, easy counter.

I must say my turtle is better. Also, your opponent isnt that good. He couldve win by making some more albas and speartons.

how convenient that all your opponents are easily defeated, plus castle archer is a useless waste of money if no one actually rushes you

Yes, agreed. But better be safe than sorry. Because building a miner city without castle archer is dangerous as hell.

I must agree and say your opponent did not play the best. Ranged unit mass + spearton tank can disrupt many a miner city.

What everyone is basically saying, is that you should vs someone that can actually use good micro. Like me :o

I must say I'm not too fond of this strategy, but it was cool video, and it had good music.:)

I'm trying to make a video on how to do the strategy. It'd be pretty stupid showing a opponent giving me a hard time winning. Don't get me wrong, I do have videos of opponents that are actually good WHILE doing this strategy but those videos are way to long and i'm to lazy to edit all that. I'm not even good, I showed videos of me losing to Tecness and CaptainCorps.

and sticky ik that you lose sometimes, but perhaps a good idea would to just post some gameplay, no matter wins or losses

A spearton with swordwraths behind can kill all your miners :P
Also, middle problem, your econ will slightly worse than the middle one

What he's saying is that you should never turtle.
