Ok, the most annoying and noobest thing in halo wars matchmaking by far is the 2v2 cutter combo. You have an army built and then they drop 20 ODST’s and then they just MAC blast ur entire army about 8 times until u have nothing left. The ODST’s are no problem really just build flamethrowers or jackles but the MAC blast is way to over powered.
Comment you thoughts on all this…

Haven’t been in that situation, but sounds pretty bad and almost like an exploit of the game.
Sounds like you need to macro around the mac blast and retreat and canny the ODSTs. Plus - if you are getting 2 cutters dropping a quad mac on your army - you are taking WAYYYY too long… especially if they both have ODST… to attack them.
I believe he talks about the Deadmatch. He has posted 2 times and the other post is about deadmatch.
If its deathmatch, I usually do 2 shields on main base, 3 on secondary bases.
Hey, if covenant players can have a scarab with maxed out engineers, us cutter players can have a mac attack.
mac vs scarab+max engies=fail
mac blast’s typically take a couple of seconds to hit the targetted location you should simply be able to move your units out of the way, your best bet as human is to spam scorpions to unholy hell canny the ODST’s and dodge the Mac’s as much as possible. I probably wouldn’t suggest flamers or jackles in this situation as they will just get Mac’d. Jackels are also slightly screwed the moment the ODST’s close up on them as jackles lack the health to survive once the ODST squad gets into shotgun range. In standard attack the enemy reactors if you can as dropping their tech below 3 (I think it’s 3. Any one able to confirm as i haven’t played as cutter in a long time) will mean no more pod dropping ODST.
If your talking about deathmatch then yes cutter does typically have an out right advantage over most other leaders.
Deathmatch is all about gaining map control. who ever has the most bases and therefore pop capacity will typically win, In deathmatch expand quickly and attack any enemy bases you come across to lower their Pop cap. If you pop > Theirs by a fair margin you are pretty much garunteed a win.
you need to wipe out double cutter in under 15 mins to avoid quad mac. usually banshees poop all over double UNSC if you keep their depots down; then the UNSC on your team only needs tanks and you should win long before they get ODST’s or quad mac.
Deathmatch sucks.
Deathmatch does suck
Deathmatch is fun… Expect when as soon as they have their leaders, they rush your base…
I’ll try putting shields up first but this rushing fatigue is annoying, and how slow it takes units to move when you tell them to.
It sucks when that happens, they use the odst’s to gridlock the units and then mac them to hell. Like someone else said just spam tanks and remember if they just used a mac blast and how long itll be until you might be seeing more. Directly after they use macs is when they will be most vulnerable to tanks, try a feint, go in with a somewhat impressive force, trigger the mac blasts, try and avoid them, and then pour in with the rest of your boys. Spam those tanks buddy, best bet. If the game is lasting this long it might not be a bad idea to pop out a quick hornet army, and then switch back to producing armor while you harass their bases with aircraft.

Hey DeepCee, I’d appreciate if you don’t ban me for saying I like cupcakes. Who was that offensive towards, pastrophobic people?
Just lighten up on the constant banning, please. Also, whoever reported that post should find something better to do with their time. Thanks!

Though King Leonighdus is known for being the the All-Time 1# POR in 1v1 Death Match he still offers good advice on how to improve this site and its system of “banning”.

The reason you got a ban is because you posted something idiotic that is not relevant to the thread.
