aggressive golding

Postby narbtit » Mon Aug 19, 2013 7:01 pm

Since pubs die so fast I have had to resort to aggressive golding. The following builders can start golding as soon as titan leaves mid and escape from a ww attack:

panda
rad
faerie

Wall one side then use your escape.
Panda splits, cyclones the titan then runs.
Rad goes invincible.
Faerie is the hardest, you have to be really fast and blink while you're phased out from the first titan hit. If you click blink out of range you'll move instead of blink, letting titan hit you again.

This can also be used to draw a titan to ww and attack you instead of some pub noob, saving them.

I wouldn't resort to such tactics and would like to play other builders but unfortunately they won't have gold. Usually someone is dead by the time a lumber base goes up.

Rad? No. 10 years delay on shield, easily countered by ward blocking and stuffs like that.

His spell is by far not instant.

I would think rad's shield goes up before 3 titan attacks, or 2 attacks + nuke. Besides titan won't have wards right away, this is for when the game just starts.

Not true. Sometimes when I titan I skip getting a pearl and just go straight for a double wotw kill or ward block.
If you don't like where you stand, than move, you're not ATree.

Panda always resets on earth when split is active.

You also forgot tauren, hunt, and sat.

tauren hunt and sat can be stopped by one wotw while panda faerie and rad can't

they can't immediately start golding and safely escape

and panda will have enough time to run because one side will be walled

I lol'd.

Few flaws in this statement:

1) You don't pwn anyone, period.

2) Panda is garbage.

Play Demo, a lot of the titans will not be able to kill you with the double hit + nuke in ethereal combo unless they can double hit you. You'll also get a lot of gold before the builder dies if the titan gets spotted out early, and is still a really great base supporter even with 0 gold.

Syph, Foss (with WC), Gran, Demonicus (with WC) comes to mind.

No, the question should be "who are YOU?"
