for those of you who dont know (probably everyone since it was forever ago), the boss rush is a legit strategy for the weaker minded AKA <1600

heres one against a 1500 early spearton, just to show its possible. spearton first is possibly one of the worst opens of all time

heres another weak spearton first

That guy you've played? Suck. And I have no idea how it's legit. Unless the enemy's too dumb to retreat. (Which is Stalky's case)
And hell, once your "puny" archer boss and sword boss is gone, you're nothing but a badplayer, doomed to be bossed by the Big Bosses.

I read the thread and as soon as I saw miner rush, I don't even know.... A single archer and you probably lost your miners and the game. Have fun!

Good luck doing that on grass hill :|
and your "strategy" only works for <1k4, even an early spearton can beat your "strategy"

I saw the original post and did it a few times against players in my clan in friendlies for fun. They don't expect it so sometimes it screws them over, but other times, you just lol.

2 miners to center immediately...... That's what I meant. How would you even expect that to work.

If anyone starts with any sort of offensive unit, which many people will, you lost your two miners. Many people will start with 1 sword, a sword + archer, 2 swords, or a single archer to the middle.

Meaning your opponent is way ahead in economy. Putting you drastically behind. Meaning you lose in he long runZ

I want to say badplayer is below 1400s, no offense, but if you can lose both your miners and still be able to win, you must be facing the really low ranks that limit their miners alot, or just do a full turtle.
