Another great fantastic game here!

We got the same guys except this time they're squaring off on Lava Run.

Now for those of you who know lava run, then you know everyone always goes sampsons or fast MT's and usually whoever wins that start war well they have it in the bag with a fast Guardian right? Well this game shows that its not all about the beginning of that game. And it doesn't matter how big your guardian is :P its how you use it hehe.

Vapor takes the lead early game with more fire power and more kills but slowly equalled by Venom. After some initial slashers losses, Venom prompts for DT's and MT's using a con and his commander. Good move as it gives him the distinct advantage. Vapor unaware of the evil MT's and DT's in construction strays away from his lab building up lots of mexes and winds as an attempt to move to the side and easily raid the top.

Unfortunatly after this move, the MT's begin their relentless assult on Vapor's poor lab which was hidden behind the rocks... excpet for that 1 blind spot in which he proceeds to say.. "I hate you" :)

After this vapor gets one con out in hopes to salvage the area! AND could it be?! he got it out! but OH NO!!!! its now STUCK in wreckage. Instead of doin anything else, Vapor prompts for a good move. He builds an guardian with it instead :P When the guardian is built it destroys its maker (the con) and the radar tower next to it, in its first shot. Boom! THe evil mt's go down but much to vapors despair a few slashers are coming around the corner. The slashers make quick work of the guardian and its destroyed.

Meanwhile Venom is thinking oh yeah I'm gonna soooooo own him with my own guardian! but wait a second? It's in the wrong spot! There is no more base there! So Venom goes and tries to expand now, but even though he destroyed vapors first base. Vapor now has DOUBLE of what Venom has.. go figure eh? :P

Vapor wastes no time and sends units up top and around the back and quickly makes short work of that expansion. The game leads into mass resource building for vapor safely out of MT and Guardian range, as he does his own guardian war at top with Venom and his units around back. The battle ends when Vapors guardian kills Venom.

Very good game and education! Watch a couple professionals in action on a very very under played and underminded map!
