What baffles me is people who will cry if a AKbot should venture into their view within the first 3mins and break a few of their windgens.


Apparently Level 1 units shouldnt be used and we should let eachother tech up to a steady Tech2 before daring destroying anything.


I think the majority of people crying 'lame' about certain strats 'learned' to play RTS against an AI player, where they could happily build defence and expect their opponent to throw wave after wave at their pretty walls untill they were ready to fight back. Then it shakes people's cages when they find that real people will think like people, and not AI.



In relation to the original post, no tactics are lame. Just good ones and bad ones

5. In all fighting, the direct method may be used
for joining battle, but indirect methods will be needed
in order to secure victory.

6. Indirect tactics, efficiently applied, are inexhaustible
as Heaven and Earth, unending as the flow of rivers and streams;
like the sun and moon, they end but to begin anew;
like the four seasons, they pass away to return once more.
