I've recently got Chaos, thanks to Rain. However, I find Order hard to be countered. So, please help me on how to counter these.

1. 1 Sword 1 Archer
2. 1 Sword 1 Spearton (After a while he makes spears)
3. Continuous stream of Swords

Help is greatly appreciated.

I will answer the first one only... :)
on long or medium maps, you can just use 3 crawler with 1 or 2 bomber(s) to kill them (you should block arrows with crawlers to protect bombers).
on short maps, you'll need 3 crawlers on good health, so don't let your early crawlers die. Your miner will take some damage from archer while making 3 crawlers, then you will be able to kill the archer with 3 crawlers.

Welcome to Chaos World!!!
It's not easy at first time like other people think "Chaos has advantage."
Practice with ur friends or sacrifice few hundred rating to be actually GOOD.
Controlling Crawlers:
1) Make 2-3 crawlers
2) Hit one target
3) Run right away
4) Hit one target
5) Run again
6) Hit one target BUT BUT BUT separate one crawler away which has been hit with lowest health in group
7) Garrison that poor kid and take him out when he's full health again

I think when the order enemy have 1 sword and 1 spearton, just counter with 1 jugger and some bombers...so I think.

But he makes more swords that pressure me. 1 Jugger isnt enough. Bombers isnt too.

1. Spam crawlers and target archer. When one crawler is about to die, make him in the back behind the other healthy crawlers. Since crawlers are faster, it'll easily catch up to the archer.

2. I'm not sure about this.

3. Bombers and crawlers. Try to tech-up quickly to Eclipsor.

would goin for medusa as early as possible help?
then going venom flux and laughing at on coming swords if there is a spear you stone im. then bombers take care of straglers.

however this i just a thought and is probably not realistic to do before opponent has sizeable army.

Then you're doing it wrong. Depending on which race you're facing queue either a jugger or a winga first. If order, go jug first. If chaos, go wing first. Remember, against chaos its a battle for aerial dominance. Don't let that fool you into thinking you dont need jugs though! without those precious tanks to protect your wings you lose. Find the right balance.

Medusa is 400 mana! you can't just get 2 miners praying on gold. The spearton will kill them, and even if you get medusa, you won't have poison upgrade.
