Hello everybody ! This is Roby1Kanobie and welcome to the meta report.
This week, we will be reviewing one game ...
... and checking out the standings of the current gold league teams.
This week, we will be reviewing the game of EL gaming versus Immortals.
Set one , EL gaming attacking with six Object 140s and one M40/43 artillery piece ...
... and Immortals defending with two T110E5 two Object 140s one Batchat and two T-54s.
Due to the use of artillery by EL gaming ...
...Immortals instead of defending choose to attack and swing by the south side ...
...sending Kittan in the middle to spot the enemy tanks...
...as well as deny spotting , while the rest of their forces swing around...
... to try and catch the artillery ( of EL gaming ) off guard.
Kittan, however takes damage while spotting...
...prompting two of the the Object 140s from EL gaming to engage him in the middle.
Immortals then try to press the artillery,
but EL gaming is quick to react...
sending four of its 140s back.
With Immortals being one tank down in the engagement..
...they get cut to pieces with the last 140 too late to the fight ...
... and the two T110E5s being stuck in the middle chasing the 140s all the way back to base
The 140s at base not directly engaging the T110E5s, but instead making them waste time...
...while the rest of EL gaming's 140s clean up the mediums in the south...
...which they do with excellent focus fire then returning to finish off the last T110E5.
EL gaming wins.
In this scenario, we see that the T110E5s were not really used properly ...
...as EL gaming brought artillery , which changed the play style of Immortals...
...causing them to send their mediums to try and kill the artillery , instead of using their T110E5s...
...meaning that the T110E5s were too slow and out of the fight...
...unable to take part in any meaningful fighting action till the very end.
So make sure you keep your heavies in front!
Set 2, EL gaming defending and Immortal attacking.
Immortals taking five Object 140 , one AMX 1390 and Object 430.
Note that most teams prefer the Object 140 ( over 430 ) as it has better gun depression, is faster ...
...and is a smaller target.
The Object 430, on the other hand is bigger, is more heavily armoured and has a bit more DPM ( damage per minute ).
Showing that Immortals is looking for a close-quarters engagement and is going to trying to push the issue.
EL gaming, on the other hand takes four Object 140s one Batchat and two T-54s...
...which is pretty standard.
EL gaming sets up a defense along cap number 2...
...while Immortals move up through the center and the western side of the map.
Immortals just goes for the straight up brawl, sending two of its tanks to try take out reflection on the hill.
Sending two tanks to take with one tank out as well as bringing a AMX 1390 instead of two T-54s ...
...eventually cost them as the DPM of EL gaming is too great for them to resist...
...and they fall to pieces one by one.
In this case, we see EL gaming using a distraction tank on the hill...
... forcing the opposition to have to split its resources while the main fight and engagement takes place.
EL gaming wins.
Set 3 on mines, EL gaming attacks with three T110E5s , two Object 140s and two T-54s...
... while Immortals defends with two T110E5s , four Object 140s and one lorrraine artillery piece.
The Lorraine, of course would be used to reset either caps.
Immortals goes straight down the middle and takes the hill...
...while EL gaming sets up a double firing squad with EL_NICE spotting for them...
...showing that they really know this map, costing IMTL_C5MSun over a thousand of his HP
EL gaming then proceeds to control the water side of the map...
... while Immortals finish securing the hill and the eastern side of the map.
EL gaming protecting its northern approach with the brilliant positioning of EL_NICE and EL_Spring...
...making Immortals having to waste two tanks just to take out one of EL gaming's tanks.
While all these is happening, EL gaming puts its two T110E5s on the cap...
...pressuring Immortals to have to send their Object 140s all the way around to spot the cap so that their artillery can reset.
EL gaming then stays on the cap, continuing to pressure ...
... forcing Immortals to have to poke out and lose Hp to be able to light and reset the cap with their artillery.
EL gaming T110E5 then pushes from the north , finishing off the forces on the hill.
This game really showcases that map knowledge can win you the game.
EL gaming really utilising all the different angles to get free shots on the enemy...
...and widen the Hp gap before the main engagement takes place.
EL gaming wins.
Set 4 , EL gaming defending with three T110E5s , two Object 140s and two T-54s.
Immortals on attack with two T110E5s, four Object 140s and a Lorraine artillery...
... which is not very standard.
Immortals goes straight for the hill, but EL gaming sends two 140s around and the rest of its forces to the hill...
... allowing Immortals to take the hill and the much needed crossfire...
...but IMTL_C5MSun is watching the back door and delays the 140s.
Immortals perfect crossfire position timed enough to eat through EL gaming's tanks...
...EL gaming perhaps seeing the artillery , and not being as thoughtful and a bit overconfident...
...rush in and get eaten up in the amazing crossfire.
In this game we see that pushing through a crossfire position is never really going to work out.
As well as trying to rush a strategy , because the enemy has an artillery is sometimes going to cause you the game.
Set 5, with EL gaming defending with five Object 140s and two T-54s.
Immortals attacking , with two STB-1s four Object 140s and the lorraine artillery again.
Immortals really liking to take this artillery with them.
Immortals goes for the 1-2 line leaving the STB-1 to cover their flank...
...while EL gaming goes straight to the middle hill to try and seek out the enemy.
Seeing the STB-1 out of position ,EL gaming sends the T-54s to engage him while the rest the forces...
... engage the middle pack of tanks.
Immortals having an artillery , and being somewhat of a tank down are slowly pushed back towards the middle where EL gaming finishes them off.
EL gaming doing a really good job of sharing their Hp so that none of their tanks die...
...while EL_ NICE_CN in a tier 9 outplays kittan in a tier 10.
EL gaming wins.
Set six, EL gaming attacking with five Object 140s , two T-54s...
... and Immortals defending with one Object 430 , one STB-1, three Object 140s ,and two T-54s.
Both teams head straight for the middle hill for a big brawl.
Both teams taking the engagement to their respective left ...
...the engagement then turns into a ring around the roses while both teams tries to engage the backside of the enemy wolfpack.
Immortals having the decisive advantage though, as they take the hill and are able to roll down with extra speed onto the rear guard of EL gaming.
Kittan, also having the decisive advantage being in an STB-1 versus EL -gaming 140 on the hill...
...manages to take control of the high ground...
...giving them sniping advantage and in the end the win.
Immortals wins
Set number seven on prokhorovka, EL gaming bringing three 215Bs, two Object 140s, 1 Batchat , and one RU 251.
Immortals defending with two STB-1s, three Object 140s and two T-54s.
Immortals wanted to make use of STB-1's gun depression to rush straight to the middle to get early shots...
...while EL gaming crosses the middle and goes to the western side of the map.
Seeing the vulnerable heavies Immortals then decides to attack.
This does not go in their favour as the heavies take way too long to get rid off.
With EL gaming's medium tanks sniping from the sides , whittling down all the attackers from the Immortals.
In this case, the heavies being able to tank a fair amount of damage while dealing their own DPM...
...giving EL gaming and easy win.
EL gaming wins
