Your point about either make units or bolster economy can't be overstated. A very important decision to make during games is "do I have enough units to hold my front while I dump resources into expanding my economy?" If you have a comfortable amount of units to hold the line *for now* , then get your t2 mex's up. Later down the line if you're still comfortable at the front, get a fusion reactor or two up. This line of thinking extends throughout the game as you progress. As frontline, you will almost certainly be behind economically compared to your backline players, and that's ok. Your job is to hold the front and progress conservatively but as aggressively as you can possibly manage.
This was very well done. The content was focused and helpful to a beginner. This type of content is limited for BAR! You have my sub, look forward to seeing more from you!
Dude. This was an amazing game! This is really great info for new BAR players. Next time, please cast the entire game. These are some amazing strats. We want to see it all.
Raider bot swarm has become one of my favorite tactics. Rush tier 2 and spam out raider bots. They’re so fast and high dps you can just run right through the front line and get into their base and resources. Hard to stop to unless you know it’s coming
Thanks for the video. I like having the fundamentals shown to me by a knowledgeable person whenever I'm trying to learn something new. This video opened a lot of doors for me. I also tend to blank out when the momentum is against me, but I see that having a hedge fund is valuable since you can rebuild metal t1 easily. Maybe I need to find ways to have a backup plan if I get ganked by multiple players I would be interested in an air focused video since they seem to be hardest to control but offer the most map-wide utility. Btw does everyone hate sea battles or is it just a learning curve?
I’m a new BAR player. I’ve been practicing against AI in skirmishes and I seem to do better in team games than 1v1. My niche seems to be radar & jammer coverage with rocket arty for base destruction. I’ve noticed that the patrolling feature is crucial for creating get in/ get out raids that require little micro.
Please do make more, for a topic I haven't seen anything covering frontline in the late game or when there isn't help from the guy behind you. Thanks for this video!
Great video! Amazing to see the decision making and where your attention as a player is. Good that it wasn't a perfect slam dunk, it's a real game with mistakes. Great learning exp. My key learning is to do more communication with team about who does what. And buying T2 builders instead of going t2 factory
One nasty suggestion for if you're using popup turrets, make a couple of them and litter the area with random wall segments. If the enemy is afraid of the prospect of popups they will have to kill all of the dragons teeth too, which is both annoying and time consuming.
yeah, i noticed homie (green) doing that, I haven't experimented with that myself, I think my porc game is pretty weak. i think just trying to bait the popups with some units automatically makes units fire, although I think I know the trick on how to discern popups from non-popups.
How do you set up automatic groups? Winter has mentioned it a couple times but I haven't been able to figure it out from the client help. For example: I want my all my Sheldons and radar/jammers in group 2 as soon as they l have the factory and pyros and mammoths in group 1
yeah, that can suck if you don't notice, but like up to 4-6 cons usually not that bad, especially if the wind is not that high, can move out of the way if you get bombed, from habits, I think best keep lab on key just alt+ constructors when you feel like you can afford them, or you can do some ratios. the very best approach
Beamers / Twin-Guards are great on frontline when facing bot opponent as they match/out-range the rocketeers (sight range is equal their range, but actual range is 5 higher, so park a tick or grunt/pawn/Missile Truck with them for the increased sight-range), whilst also being even better at anti-swarm but not as costly as HLT. Though they are double the price of LLT, as LLT's are outranged by rocketeers they're a waste of resources.
Your ally has so many tanks sitting doing nothing for minutes and minutes while you keep loosing font line ground. His artillery just sits back where it could move up a teeny bit and it would start pounding
Lol, try this in low level lobbies, no one knows what they a re doing, you cant rely on someone to gift you t2 builders, or be able to hold a front with you, or even know simple build orders, this is a tactic only in experienced teams...or luckily someone might know that support is actually a thing. The amount of times ive been fucked over cos someone is hyper focus on building shit so THEY can have the t2 units. fuck frontliners who are putting in the work early, i want juggernaughts!

This is the perfect content that BAR needs. Thank you.

Thank you so much. Very educational both from your perspective and to see what a helpful backline teammate looks like

"If you try do units at the same time as economy, you tend to slow both of them down."
This right here is the biggest fault in my gameplay.

Those early rocket bots are dangerous! Most low level games would be won right then and there with that strat, nice guide!

how do you decide when to go vehicle or bot for front line duty?
as a more or less freshly minted mp player (
Go with bot lab, and build vehicle next as fast as you can. The bot only for ress and early covers
Very helpful to a beginner like me. Thanks!
thanks mr youtube algorithm - love the vid. Some sectioning would be nice to learn while playing
can you make a keybinding tutorial and mybe a bunch of tutorials thanks

I'll do a video on it, but basically the gist of it is to open skirmish, enable cheats and just set the groups and experiment what works for you.
Default binding is using Alt+number instead of Ctrl+number
select unit -> Alt+2 will put all of that unit into group 2 as well as all newly built.
Great video LSR!
op content keep it up
Love it dude, subbed
I do the repeat on the lab as well. Which means I also do the construction bot spam sometimes lmao.
yeah, that can suck if you don't notice, but like up to 4-6 cons usually not that bad, especially if the wind is not that high, can move out of the way if you get bombed, from habits, I think best keep lab on key just alt+ constructors when you feel like you can afford them, or you can do some ratios. the very best approach
This channel so goodl
When you self distruct you dont leave any wreck for people to salvage???
nice

i like building a single plasma arty when i feel i have enough army to give some room to tech behind
what is a mex???
what is a LLT?
What did you mean by you commissioned and paid that guy to bring his T2 constructor?
Make new video like this bro thx for posting
Where did he get the twitcher from?
Good Thumbnail!
Hey, well, your commander is also featured in it :D

Leavy was no lvl 17, that was a pro, look at the mass and energy production :D + Krogoth
what are LLT's????
This is what I was wondering
Maybe a Light Laser Tower
Tldr, he lost his base in the end 😅
No more Factorio vids? ;)
How did you get your T2 Constructor?
He paid a teammate who made it and then shared it to him
😍
