Possibly, but I haven't encountered it often, spalbow (if I can call it that?) has some obvious flaws like un-guarded albowtrosses, but then again spear rush has its obvious flaws. Perhaps if I hear or see of it more. Unless you want to write up the section for it.
Its ok ^^
Just want to say: Well, then why does Chaos also combine land unit and flying unit? (Jugger+eclipsor) the only problem for spearbow (spearton+albow) is that: 1. Albows are slower (so they have to wait more untill reinformans are comming) 2. Albows have smarter range then Archer 3. Cost a little bit too much 4. Training time 5. Population
nut if you do it right, there shouldn't be any problems ^^

View Profile Ok heres the giant+albow strategy
Ease of Countering: 7/10
Ease of execution: idk what that means
Common At: 1800-2100?????
Comment: Ok so the giants tank the shots like crazy while albows destroy everything (archers, spearton, ninja, giants, more albows, and most chaos units.) I like to get 2 shadowrath to kill mages and 3 merics. To counter you need to break there economy, or on a long map I just shadowrath mass the attacking the statue.
Ease of execution is how easily someone can use this strategy. I've seen this a few time so I'll put it in.

My favorite unit combination is Giant+albow ^^ also adding Magikill and merics, and your ultimate army is finished ^^

Well, then by the same logic Ease of Countering is highly variable and depends on the user : P, it's general, an average if you will.

I'm questioning the effectiveness of this since Albowtrosses can simply ignore Speartons by flying and the fact that since they are on the same build queues, this would be slow to replace lost units. Also, I have never used this or seen it.

View Profile Just want to add that Spearton Rush is still seen up to 1600ish.

But I never really saw it after I got to the 1450 rating, and never ever after the 1550 rating

actually, sword-spear is a strat for the beginning: At first, only buy swords and miners (always changeable)...enought mana? buy rage...enought gold and mana? Start buying spears....then attack ^^

But they could save up for 1 albowtross and capture center. Or a magikill to destroy the swordwrath

Lone Albowtrosses can get pwned by an archer and sword or two archers, as long as the micro is good.

exactly so they should get a archer or 2 instead of just spearton and swordwrath
