This is my first thread so don't mind if the topic is messy or something.I will make 3 levels when i post and hopefully more will be posted.Highskilled [H] 9-10 skilledSkilled [S] 7 or moreRegular[R] 6 or lessEDITED ABOVE TO CURRENT.I will also start adding if there are suecide players in the game & if there are eco players in the game.First up: This is an intense game with alot of skilled players E.g. PlayerSlayer, Diehard, Carpetbomb, Ooloo and more. The Deciding Factor in my opinion is Carpetbomb being able to defeat his opponent faster then anyone else and then being able to feed his team. Tho I think there is alot of intresting 1v1's going on in this game but Carpet sent ~50k Cred and some of Metal/CrystalVs My teams 0, Thus ending the game. I made a big misstake losing my Progren and wasn't able to recover from that and I also upgraded my fleet supply to fast resulting in a ~200 Supply being unused after I lost my Cap... The most even matchup here is Ooloo vs Diehard in my opinion, also I would like to point out that Diehard is almost getting 0 Feed compared to the others in his team and still outperforming. Replay can be found Here and in the External Link button.FOR ALL NEWBIES READ GRIMMS GUIDE TO 5S HEREGuide to watch replays:
How to watch them?
Hey there,
Yes, they break with each patch, but there are actually a lot of replays in this thread which I can run on the latest one. Potentially to get the most of them you have to watch them multiple times to see the small details every player does (mostly in the early game). Still I am getting close to depleting them soon .
thx for reply. Yes I realize that the community is quite small but they play fairly often and are quite outgoing even to noobs such as me. Playing a game with these experienced guys every time teaches me something new.
I am already auto-recording these replays, but the bad thing is that my game decides to help the developers by minidumping usually first if the game goes lategame, so the replay is not saved (quite frustrating). Are there any tips for solving this? Maybe if you can save the replay manually during the game so you don't loose it whole?
Well I could even upload some of these auto-recorded games here, if anybody would be interested and wouldn't mind that at least one of the players is really lame (me). Still a lot to learn from other players though.
Thx for reply and cheers.
Hey what's up guys! So as some of you know I'm back, Don't know for how long but I will upload some replays at the request of some new people. Sometimes I will type something about the replay, a short review but now in the begining I will just dump.Maybe I'll stop playing again in a couple of weeks sadly but we will see. Enjoy. This is a fast-paced game. Contains Eco, It's a pretty low-mid tier game. Feel free to ask questions!replay
Another replay.Contains eco. and suicide spot. Everyone on random race. Can tell you that there was like 2 players except myself that are comfortable with random in this lobby so there is not so much exciting action more rage and stuff. But probably someone will find it interesting.replay here
Thanks for the replays ReD-Ruby.
Appreciate the effort, thx very much Ruby.
another one here.I think this is the right one!If you have any questions feel free to ask me.Replay here
Another game. It's quite fast. Map was really broken and I opened with revelation and fleet capacity increase because i thought i had an opponent. So if you wanna see me eco with a revelation have a look.Krusher gets doubled and dies really fast. Germack is colonizing Desserts and therefore losing an important choke to felix.replay here
A replay from today. Alot of good player but game is over fast. But someone might learn something. Like not spam vettes vs vasari. Here
Thanks Red-Ruby.
Quick question Ruby, what's your handle in-game?
Handle? what do you mean? You're welcome
I think handle means your in game name. its the same ReD-Ruby on the fourms and in the game suavesamaritan.
Yes it is the same. ReD`RubYIf I didn't accidently upload a game from when I smurf. that wouldn't been so good hahahah.
Thanks. I'll look for you in 5s.
Have found it's been really quiet in the last few months, so I haven't been on much, but I'd like to play against you.
Your replays and analysis are great.
Cheers,
Aigi
Can do a 1v1 or something now if you want toKing_of_spadez on steam
Here is a replay when I'm playing suicide spot with a Corsev and getting some earlyfeed.The players doubling me are around regular level. The Corsev is really strong in this position because I don't have to jump around so much and therefore, can keep my antimatter. Replay here
a nice game of 5s where I'm 1v1 vs Grimm. Was winning untill he got fed but it was a nice game regardless. replay here
Another replay when I'm vs Grimm.enjoy
I've yet to see a TEC player beat the Rankulus +SB combo rush against a capable Vas player.
I spammed LFs hard other day and got the SB down to about 500 HP (using akkan), maybe could've succeeded with marza or dunov but still my fleet would have been left decimated and I wouldn't have be able to stop the next SB.
The combo seems OP considering all one has to do is SB and spam support swarm, and TEC seems to have luckluster ability to spam frigs effectively (not as good as advent).
It seems not even the great Grimm (as TEC), could stop you SB his HW and bombing it out; albeit he fought hard.
A game from today when I'm vs Bruno. It's a pretty intense.Bruno opens with revelation.I do a civ opening with progen. Even tho I get culture up and a stronger eco Bruno outplays me alot and the revelation destroys my progen bigtime with raverie.I'm very hungover in this game so everything goes pretty slow for me and I get very outmicro'd but in the end it's pretty close.replay here
Uploaded a fairly skilled 5s game on request: http://www.2shared.com/file/kMA2XVC7/AutoRecord-10030403.htmlThe game had t1: Me (Oli)
Sb=>ferdie
X wing
Sho_Nuff
NOOBNOOB
T2 had:
vVv (Vahpe)
BagsX
DatBarb (Barbarian/Candi)
Contractkilla (Capable)
Red (Jeanluc/ballz/raymond reddington)
A fairly intense game all the way through, with a notable fights on both main fronts, my biggest part was stopping the advance of barb/bags after they'd ploughed through n00b/ferdie. I'll perhaps write a more detailed writeup once I've watched it if there's interest
Oli
Thank you for your contribution Oli.If you have any request for replay where I'm playing a specific race or a specific cap opening/buildorder with a certain race just tell me.I play random 99% of my games so i'm open for suggestions.
