20$ a series i wrote the book on allies before u were even qming with awaz in ur little sov wars l0l .

all shitty maps should be replaced by good maps. Its been made clear there are quite a few good ones to choose from. just... why have shitty maps ? l0l

money games ?

wouldnt be surprised if it was steeper. Flak tracks, if i recall correctly, can defeat ifvs in single combat.. which is outrageous !! it just breaks allies for me. No reason to use them at all on yuris. Just go sov like every1 else Btw ur n00b

another issue is the korea-america thing. Koreans are alot --and i mean A LOT-- better in ra2 sadly. Just as good if not better than America imo. In yuris... korea is kind of (still playable) a joke. Nowhere near as effective. Flak tracks do like 2x (?) more damage + siege additional anti air to air option + force shield defense option. Would allies be overpowered or more balanced if America could build black eagles instead of harriers? in ra2 they would be OP, but in yuris ?

^^

showtime vs zor would be interesting match. Oldschool vs newschool. Spear vs shield. Why limit it to only cncnet ? The more open u are, the more open ur challengers will be

listen if VWWWWWW has the balls to step up to the plate, ill smash him down.

When I played yuris as allied, I felt the same. The only strategy that worked for me was getting as many mirage ASAP. Now, I do not share ur certainty, as I have been raped by hit N run allies from the soviet side of things, but my rationalization was that I was TOTALLY outplayed those games. But still the rape did leave a sense of doubt about the mirage-only theory. Overall I agree with u that the strategy for allies (on yr) seem to be highly limited and that is why I felt uncomfortable using them. Perhaps u can prove this by bashing Vwwwwww live AvS for us to enjoy ? Since u have no doubt whatsoever ^^

france is actually quite shitty and hard to use vs good players. Just dont put crap maps like offense defense on, and u wont have any issues

marsh may be n00b, but at least hes smart enough to NOT challenge the A.O.D......... Truth be told, u aint pro enough to reinstall and buttrape. if aufmindwar did the same thing...... id consider the re-installation and dishing out a 10-0, but hes not that dumb either. But lets not get off topic. Just because a map is popular doesnt mean that the map is good. Donald trump is the president of the united states but is also a complete donkey-dick dufus. ^ this post u are a n00b ! Luci owns ur soul in a cage

facedown -- Battle with the bases in 2 mins for center and the game ends in a very boring, non-pro way. cs favors bottom -- not fair Dry heat-- forgot it , quite a decent map indeed. dmz favors right side-- not fair dune patrol...is too noob l0l offense defense is the exact map i would pick if i was just starting the game and didnt want to have to move my units around what - so - ever top gets 2 ore patches + 1 oil + 1 big oil bottom gets 2 ore patches + 1 oil + 1 airport + gems + central position I dont see them as YR maps or Ra2 maps -- just good maps and bad maps. i like both games, but ra2 just so happens to have a much, much, much much much much better map list for competitive games and almost none of them are original maps. They were made by veteran players from the community, not the 1999 game creators, and should be used in yr and ra2 alike because they are better maps.

u are a 50-0 for luci brah You dont just want to sacrifice control of the entire map just to tech up and be killed by the opponents... control over the entire map l0l. This goes for both factions. You want to activate ur positiion so u are less vulnerable to tactics and have future prospects. Soviet players for example, who have it in their mind at the start -- im rushing-- im tier 2 all-in, im fast-ic, are not going about it the right way. The ideas should change as the game-state changes; adaptation. Is the map open ? More wars before tech Is the map closed? Tech, quickly Is the sov guy got going really fast radar-- really fast tech? Punish him with what matt and prep are talking about Is the allied going really fast blab? Punish him with splits and desos ad infinitum. Everything has a counter its called situational awareness boys

u are a 50-0 for luci brah

golden state valley could be an interesting yuri map i suspect. Never tried it though. as long as mags / yuri subs dont get outta control , the map should be o.k. Apart from yuri being yuri and all. : ]

lets not also underestimate the power of siege choppers here too. Those things.... they come in, kill ur rockets, force anti air, plop down , get iron-curtained and -HO- -LY- SHIT.

not to the point where they shoulndt be considered a competitive 1v1 map. Reconcile still made top 13 afterall. Maps that fit the goldilocks zone for AvS: pirate bay lakeside south pacific snow valley bull run heck rvr full heck Note that heck rvr and full heck are considered different maps. Heck TvT = total sov map for the sake of comparison. Again, my point about random spawns i think is worth considering on some maps for this reason

if its a small list u are wishing for then only look at the top 10. I fear that reconcile might be a super allied map once mastered though, im not sure ^^ at all. Only reason it wasnt top 10

1. I expected this response. My question is does it have to be all maps random spawns or no maps random spawns or... whats the deal ? Indeed, many maps would be messed up, but on the maps i specified, like jungle of vietnam for example, TvT, RvR, BvB, LvL, and full cross-spawns are all very nice in their own unique way. Having 1-spawn-only limits the greatness that is the map. 2. Pirate bay because it has everything. You have many options as how to approach it from the start. Do you fight for the middle right away or get ur eco going and go for a coutner attack in the middle later on? Or do you neglect both and go fast tech ? The options only increase as the game goes on. Its one of the best AvA maps because its very dynamic --you can hit and run everywhere. Its one of the best SvS maps because splits, desos, and teching are all good options. Its also one of, if not thee, best allied vs soviet map because the early game has many options as said, which is good for sov, but the middle game options for allies are very numerous and can favor them if the sov over-commit to an attack. Navy is a factor, but not central, the chronosphere is very nice on this map in relation to the iron curtain -- the goldilocks map. 3. Alamo is a SvS map primarily, i agree with you. I wouldnt put it in the AvS category, but its a fantastic small little asymmetrical map for SvS that i thought was worth mentioning. Also i put some allied maps in there. Didnt even mention all the good ones, ur right there are too many ! The key point is to avoid BAD maps like dune patrol, montana dmz, and country swing, while giving the maps like pirate bay and golden state valley the spotlight they deserve

in light of the recent topics about game balance, competitiveness, and the rather fantastic new QM function, i will list what i see as the most " pro " maps available atm. Discuss and enjoy. Staple Pro maps The best of the best (this is for 1v1) 1. Pirate Bay -- if anything stands out to me, its PB. 2. Heck Freezes Over and its variants (1-4). The mother of splits. 3. Tour Of Egypt (random spawns). The country swing-style but better, a classic in no particular order 4. Divide and Conquer (random spawns) 5. Jungle of Vietnam (random spawns) 6. Coldest Peak 7. Lakeside 8. Golden state Valley 9. Thin Ice 10. Depth Charge Other totally acceptable pro maps in no particular order 11. Caverns of Siberia 12. Bull run (random spawns) 13. Reconcille 14. South Pacific (TL vs BR) 15. Snow Valley (TL vs BR) 16. No Whimps 17. Heartland (BL vs TR) 18. Lost lake 19. Loaded Barrel 20. Alamo 21. Deadman's Ridge Note: this list does not have Yuri in mind

Korea. Sex appeal

Marshmellow Big talk, small game. swimming with sharks brah

germany is weak because tank destroyers are terrible units, and all the other allied specialty options are good options. Any soviet faction other than iraq is weak because desolaters kill everything This makes sov even easier. All of the answers are the same: go iraq. If you're allies in qm, some maps u want gb, some france, america or korea. When ur korea, playing vs america is a rough time. When your gb, playing vs korea is a tough time. Iraq being the only valid option is not a weakness, its a strength

this !
