    Drongo buddy, you have put out plenty of videos that show you being aggressive and responding to possible breaks. If anyone is going eco in the game they also need to be watching the front line and responding accordingly. If you're eco and your frontline players are getting pushed back, remembering that 1 break through can be that turning tide for the rest of the game. So as you point out at the very beginning you NEED TO BUILD UNITS.... If players can't figure that bit out, maybe they should play the single player scenarios beforehand. IMO, the player going eco has every avenue of production available to them because they have the build power and eco to support whatever they choose to do.

    I think that eco role should evolve more or has the ability to evolve not necessarily in a more impressive manner but building supplemental infrastructure for the entire team.
    It is easy to assume all people would eventually get to the point of self-sustain but with one individual focusing on the health of the team, everyone has a greater chance of survival and lead to less instances of 1vX situations where the finality rests upon the eco player.
    The benefit of allies in RTS games is you have more processing/multitasking power, so invest in keeping that processing power up.

    because I play front line 99% of time, my eco pretty much never reaches > 100 m/sec. If I had 240 m/sec the world would be my oyster , but usually the game is over by then (i.e we have won already). Scaling eco while frontline and under 100% pressure constantly is pretty tough!

    I never did any kind of unit spam like this. I found the little units just died so fast that I only ever made expensive and slow to construct units. But I would challenge myself against nearly impossible AI modes. Also the terrain on maps often limited how segmented you could make your base. I was in the habit of selecting my construction units and clicking the building i wanted them to focus. But now that I see the unit spam that might of been smart to use sometimes. Not sure. I seem to have a different mindset. And it all became about range at one point and beating the AI to the longer range. All I know is that you learn a lot against hard AI modes. Like swap the normal AI for the crazy one and one hard one and one defense. And kiss butt goodbye until you learn. lol

    Front exists to protect back. Back exists to support front. Backline has individual roles and need to act as a whole to be effective. Front line acts as as independent armies essentially. If one frontliner fails or dies and that backliner finishes the game. Backline has failed. Backliners think they have won the match and the team has won if they finish the game over the dead frontliners. No you haven't. You've just survived long enough because your front line made it happen and now the backline reaps all the awards and skills up. If backline let's one front line fall because of greed. You fail. Also backline complains about leaks but never builds a single laser tower. Do you know how many laser towers and defenses a front liner needs to spend all their resources on. And then still asks for metal to provide support. It's a joke. #half_robot

      Most lemmings don't mind being one. That's why they are - a lemming.

    I’ve watched loads of your videos but it’s extremely frustrating listening to them when you constantly refer to afus’s and never say what they are. Why are they called afus when they’re labelled advanced fusion reactor?

    Come on bro - you're giving yourself too much credit. This is a HARD game to learn for the vast majority of people. The fact that people struggle to make units is not your fault. Now you need to apologize for insulting our intelligence with your inflated ego.

    Jeez. You need to apologize for being the leader in creating content for this game?
    I hope that isn’t a red flag from the community. The amount of positivity you’ve provided makes any complaint feel shallow and fabricated. I’m not buying it.

      BAR is an awesome game but the Discord community is like a religious cult. If you question the game balance you’ll be condemned to hell for all eternity.
