This was an unarranged 3v3 on fort deen, it became a 2v2 when II DiTCHY D II and dummy bullet both resigned early on without actually doing anything, Almost certain I carried the other guy. I started with Hogs Grem’s and later Scorps then moved to Scorps Wolves and hawx before moving to just Scorps and wolves after enemy countered my Hawx.
The match took longer than I would have liked Any ideas how i could have ended it sooner?
ANTONIO DE OZ (Brute) tried scarabs, he didn’t realise how ineffective they were as he just kept building more, he went banshee’s early game but I had enough hogs to push them off my base and i don’t think he had boost at first or at least he didn’t make use of it if he did
mischnick89 (Anders) had the right idea (I think) with his units but i had mine ready long before he did and he didn’t really try rushing to slow me down.
I’m not sure what my ally was trying but it looked mostly like ODST’s, ODST’s and more ODST’s whenever i cared to look and he didn’t seem all that proficient at micro’ing the other units he had.
Anyway, any tips on things i could have tried to do to bring the match to a close any earlier would be great.
Hmm, just getting better in general. You should play more 1v1. The best strat would be buying the expo asap, and going straight gauss hogs off of a station and firebase or two stations, then downtech and research reserves. Push when you finish grenadier or gauss and clear out a few expos and establish as many expos for pumping as possible.

Since I wasn’t in the game and don’t know any of the detailed play-by-play events, I would just advise you to always be proactive with your units. Never just build up and sit there for too long or else your opponent will out-produce you. Always think of UAs as a 1v3 or else you’ll become too dependent on a less than stellar teammate who is convinced ODSTs are going to beat PT.
Piercing shot… 0 cobras… Adrenaline. Mega barrage. Deflection plating. All uneeded and could have been used to triple pump pt tanks
Only 16 tanks in a 45 min game?
The scorps didn’t die off all that much as you see i only lost 9 and most of the time i was using either wolves or hawx along side them.
Does simply spamming tanks really work all the time?
Take Halo - Official Site (en) for example. If i had gone for scorps it would have ended up Scorps Vs Hunters and probably banshees’ which is not a fight their likely to win. Hawx + Wolves made more sense against tripple covy as i didn’t have to worry about them having wolves only Vampire’s which my wolves already have countered.
Other 3v3 UA matches i’ve had recently.

my eyes are bleeding
Go gauss against triple or most of the time even double covy. Especially on exile , you can get it super quick and covy really doesnt have a counter for mass gauss that early. Also hunters get canny glitched easily, are too slow and are only good when tech 3.
gauss is the way to go
or powerturret tanks + 2/3 wolves if they go air in UA
