I need help with my Russians (rec)

Post by bugattivitesse »

Hello again. I really need help with my Russians. When i got TAD, i was a 2nd Lt on Vanilla, so my rank quickly got inflated here. I am now a 2nd Lt on TAD as well, but i think i am more like a Master Sergeant.

I have a rec of my russians vs France. The other guy isn't very good, but i can still use any tips or pointers on Russians. I know i made quite a few mistakes in this one.

No major mistakes imo. Just polish your build order. There is only one good way : watch recs/vods &' practice. Veni has one of the best russians. Here is an example : same map, same mu.

In terms of a few pointers (apologies if you're already aware):
- make 1 vill collect each food crate to start. You should be able to get vills between 11-14 seconds, your first batch was c.20 seconds'
- remember to be careful with your herding. The initial 4 bison should be carefully worked so they are next to your TC. Most of your shots took them away from the TC' and
- don't over-commit vs France. CDB / MM / shipments and TC fire will own Russian units. i.e. you shouldn't have taken the first fight in his base. Pressure to keep off res and harass a little is fine.

Hopefully that helps a little. Watching others recs does also help.

Oh and p.s. you nearly lost a vill to a scout ')
