We need to find some strategy that is cheaper than the strategies listed, but at the same effective (cheaper= it comes faster than the enemies and cost less)

Also Aiman, why do you have Ao oni as your avatar picture?

I have already tried spamming swordwrath and archidon, biggest mistake I've made against chaos.

Ahem.
Sorry Cheetos, but note that this isn't bragging. It's just helping.

Here's a good replay. Even though Cheetos kinda trolled and got spammed deads instead of eclipsors, it was a pretty good start (for me).

LOL Crim is the BEST at deads. so as chaos, u counter deads with juggers(mostly) and wings. For order, its a different answer. Note that dead production is almost the same as wing production, so, you should use the other way around.

You won't want wings cuz their juggers will kill them, so i suggest two different strategies :
GIANT SPAMMING!!!
poison won't work on miner walls and deads hardly do any damage without poison so get miner walls and giants.

Well, I am always use Archidons agains bombers, its very effektiv. Against crawler, use Magikill with his blast. Against death.. well, a problem. May be you use Shadowrath with shinobi and Merics. ... to be continue

Well I learned something that keeps me alive for about ten or so minutes until the enemy decides to get something more, two walls with a two magikill with all spells behind the two walls, this is incredibly effective I have learned, but later on I'm left asking myself "NOW WHAT, WHAT I DO I DO NOW!" I attempt to strike but it turns out chaos is very adaptive and creates units faster than anything. So while I'm over here with just two walls and two magikill to my name, this guy has four juggerknights and an eclispor army.

I end up making speartons for offensive maneuvers but the enemy has juggerknights with charge that leave me in dust, I make shadowrath to counter the juggerknights but then the enemy has eclispors that make quick work of the shadowrath after they make their assassination, I may of killed a single juggerknight but they end up killing two shadowrath in the escape process.

Well, in my most recent game against Chaos, I think I surprised my opponent with a few things. I hid my army behind walls and when he got a juggerknight to counter my archers, I brought out some swords, which he thought he could deal with until I activated RAGE!!!! Which I got at the begining of the game and never used after that point.

Replay!

Hi reader,

You have to beat Chaos in army and economy no MATTER what... 1 step behind and you've lost. Chaos players use Bombers to attack air units so getting out an Allbowtross early might not be the #1 idea... Merics are key, with their cure they can stop the most devastating toxic attacks. They tend to aim for Archidons, so getting Archidons isn't a VERY good idea at the start if a game. It's best if you keep spamming Swordwraths and upgrade your tech as fast as you can, when Eclipsors come, make sure you have a few Archidons (About 2 - 4) waiting with Spearton(s) (1 - 2) which have Shield Wall, guard your Archidons, kill the Allbowtross. Fire at ANY ground UNITS!

Yea, Chaos has some counters to various things, but something I think could work is hiding units, give em surprises. That'll force people to quickly change strategies. This works against Order and Chaos.

I don't think it needs a nerd, maybe a nerf to health regen though.

If he flew over the speartons, I would make my archidons move in front of the speartons and shoot there, same if he moves eclipsors.

@THEFORCE This is ECLIPSOR MASS, not an army of variety of units and don't talk sh!t about my opponent, if you don't like it, don't view it...simple as that...blah.

No one masses just eclipsors. As I think that would be stupid. And if you think countering eclipsors with spearton + archer is easy then you're wrong. A good player knows how to counter. And you just won't get archer + speartons faster than he can get more eclipsors and 1 jugger to make archer kite. ESPECIALLY AT THE BEGINNING OF THE GAME WHICH YOU OBVIOUSLY DON'T SHOW. That's why it's not perfect to counter eclipsors.

You at least must do a video to couter chaos against a decent opponent that knows how to use his units correctly and right-timing everything.

I have lost against chaos SIX times TODAY! and I need tips and good starter strategies, I really hoped I didn't have to bother any of the other players about this but its really getting annoying, the second they take out a good unit such as a deads or an eclispor my castle has already fallen due to not being able to fight them off, these are my starting tactics that I use, please tell me what I am doing wrong.

A single sword and 2 miners, the I send the single swordwrath over to the tower, and continue buying swords and
archidons, but every single time the foe buys bombers that kill the archidons instantly and buys eclispors that take down
the melee units.

3 miners then buy a spearton with an archidon, this ended up being the worst of them all, the enemy completely countered it every time with a juggerknight and 3 simple bombers, beating me both economically and physically.

a tower archer and a single miner, the enemy just spammed bombers which for some reason the tower archer missed every shot, and the enemy was free to blow up the economy before I could even garrison.

What am I doing wrong?

Pls...I got whopped when I get 1 archer & a sword...

Vs. Eclipsor mass? Are you sure? Archidon + spearton combo works nicely for me.

Magikill? Even better!

those bombers are fast, i know and ive dealt with it myself.

-the best strategy is a lot of archidons behind a wall. they will thin out the bombers enough, and one or two will not destroy the wall.
-with enough archers, whose range is farther than eclipsors, you can just take them out when they are focussed on the wall.
-walls walls walls, until that use a few swordwrath.
-those little monkey beasts are also stopped by walls.
-a castle archer will take care of their slower units
