    One important factor that isn't often discussed is how much apm a build saves. If your build allows you to queue up a lot of orders ahead of time, simplifies how you play the game, and doesn't require any course correction, it can make playing through the early stages much easier. This allows you to focus more on strategy, positioning, and micro.

    Here's my favorite build order:
    8 T3 mex - 15:03 (low reclaim)
    217 mass/sec
    build order:
    0. CDR: pgen -> land factory -> 8x mex (you get 8x mex 10 seconds faster)
    1. Land factory: 10x eng -> 5x AA units -> 5x eng -> ctrl+k
    2. 3 eng: carbon plant -> 6 t1 pgen -> EStore -> 3 t1 pgen -> estore -> 3 t1 pgen -> 4 estore -> reclaim/assist
    3. 3 eng: reclaim -> mass ring after T2 caps
    4. 10eng + cdr: assist T2 mex upgrades (6:45)
    5. 10eng: cap mexes (split into 2 groups of 5) && CDR: T2 upgrade (9:55)
    6. CDR: 2x T2 PGen
    7. CDR: T3 (assist with eng)
    8. ctrl+k T2 mex -> T3 mex (costs 700 less mass) (15:03)
    9. T2 pgen
    11. CDR: 1 gateway -> T3 PGen -> Gateway -> T3 PGen -> Gateway -> T3 Pgen -> RAS -> ARAS
    12. all t1 eng assist gateway
    13. loop EngSubCDR and have first ones assist gateways (2x build speed)
    14. next 4 subCDR go build mass farm core
    15. next subCDR build mass farm leaves (600mass/sec, 33 SCDR, 56k mass store)
    16. 32:03 - upgrade all subcdr with RAS
    At this point, you can spam out anything you want really fast.
    If players are being passive, you can go for a paragon

    You finally made enough science videos to officially earn your PHD in science 😂 congratulations! 🎉
    I'd really love to see a vid about various unit compositions land/navy. T1 tanks to arty to aa ratio, how many t2 shields/flak is optimal for t2 or t3 comps, is it worth getting t3 mobile AA over t2, how many frigates is too many vs destroyers or battleships, etc. Thanks!👍

    @nctrls5628 Před rokem +1

    On most of my games i try to keep the COM at my base until i start stalling mass.
    I feel like this usually is best if the BO doesn't demand that the COM start moving at a fixed point.

    • @InternetAlias
      @InternetAlias Před rokem +2

      Usually, not using the Com as a Combat unit will lose you the game.
      Ofcourde this map dependent, but keep in mind: an unupgraded acu is equivalent to 20 T1 Tanks, or 2 T1 engies.
