i demand 11points since i got most points, check rep!
I din't lose! I made a tactical play by trying to look weak by being at the bottom of the standings. Now i'll be able to hoard peacefully for the next 4 games!

wow -5 points by feeding
btw, I always wondered, is that sig of yours sarcastic, or did one of the admin edit it?
um why did I get -5 points? I didn't feed on purpose. Watch the replay. I was running my army around and each player got a chunk of it. The last hippos were the last of my army and he had panda haze on them, they weren't getting away. I should have 11 + 10 = 21.

So the worst is behind us... but then I think we're going to have a few games on DR and SS haha.

It's funny cause I chose Crucible by putting numbers into Random.org and was going to do the same this round.... until I got Gold Rush twice in a row and then Savage Storm after that. I closed out of Random.org and decided I'm not going to use that method. haha
ok you win
It's impossible to argue with Ebo. You made the right call.

No. Silverpine is an Orc map.
What defines an Orc map, and whats define an NE map?
Orc map:
Lot's of creep to get good heroes
Lot's of imba items
Shredders
Mana fountain (if no pipe available in market)
Ne map:
Almost no creep/items (ne has one of the best army if we remove heroes)
Almost no wood (no cutting it ftw)
Place do Chim over water
Silverpine has a good amount of creeps, lots of imba items that are perfect for orcs (and market places) it has shredders, and the market does have a pipe, there is almost no place to chim over water, only over trees, which is only 25% as effective, and the wood is abundant
Conclusion? This is a shitty elf map and a great orc map.
Then there is no Orc/Hu map, because it's always possible to 80/100 T3 rush and orc/hu early, ALWAYS.
So I guess that means that orc and hu are the worst possible race.
Seriously, name 1 map where you can't do a T3 rush, it's even possible on hurricane
Scouting should be done at the start of the game with a worker or a summon, and so finding him should not be a problem.
If you kill the orc's main, along with all of his production building, it will give you a large window of time where he is unable to build an army. that time is more than enough to find his newly built production building and kill them again.
early game 100v50 will always win, unless you decide to stop hunting him down
Actually if you look, I said that orc and hu where bad
They are both terrible race
Twilight and Harvest are probably the most balanced for all races, which is why I think they should be used for the finals.
Yeah, dase wasn't rush on Twilight in the finals, likewise, Nline wasn't rush on Market
Objection:
On a smaller map it's much easier to scout the rush coming and build a counter
Smaller map are better for orcs
I feel like all of this may be moot as "rush" is hardly what I would call 80 or 100. In 1vs1 a close spawn can make a huge difference on Turtle Rock for instance in NE vs Hu in a tower rush situation. The elf LITERALLY has no chance to prepare because militia arrive so quickly. However, it takes at LEAST 10+ minutes (fastest I've gotten a full chippo army off 2 base is 15) to get a 100/100 T3 army and if you haven't scouted your enemy by 10 minutes you're clearly doing it wrong. Size and position can only make the "rush" easier in the amount of time it takes to move the army which, when you've had 15 minutes to prepare, is negligible. If you take EM2 as an example, when I rushed out L77, he didn't have an army ready when my 8 chims arrived. However, if you go back and look, there was ample time for him to pump out a counter army in preparation, lots of time went by with his production buildings doing nothing and his gold count high. Meanwhile my roosts were pumping. If he had started to build an army at the same time as me, he would have been able to match me in food count when I got there. Lack of scouting or not expecting my aggression was what caught him, not position or races' ability to prepare in time.
TLDR version: <3 Ebo but I have to side with the others.
