Skitt and I partake to play an ECA Mirror, which initially, most of you would probably find it boring because "arty spam for 2 hours game" but its actually not as bad as you think it is. Although it applies to the match up in general, it wasn't exactly how this match went, and featured some interesting use of underrated upgrades as well as fun offensive tactics as ECA.
I would suggest to give this replay a watch if you are interested in seeing how the faction can play out, as this replay isn't necessarily a demonstration of how the match up goes but also shows off how certain units that you may not think are useful at first could very well lead you to victory. Spoilers will be in next post. Version: 1.86 (NO RGO) This post has been edited by Marakar: 5 May 2016, 22:40

SPOILERS BELOW, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
So I won this match, and it was an interesting game featuring Combat Pioneers applying pressure as well as loads of Howitzers. There is eventually a howitzer storm where Skitt attempts to Mechanize Battallion push his way but gets ravaged by a storm of shells, quickly skyrocketing me to Rank 3 and allowing me to purchase a Bulldog (R2), Smart Bomb and Commando Drop. I feel as though Skitt should've taken control of the right supplies in order to achieve higher economy, as I was mining from the middle supplies on the left whilst he was relying on t2 eco, his supplies and oils which I eventually destroy. Snipers helped Skitt fend off Jaegar, but then I realized I could use Canister Round Pioneers in order to counter that (one of the most underrated ECA Upgrades actually being put into use). Also in the end, Skitt was aiming towards Venom since low economy whilst I aimed for Pandora in order to simply nuke his base. My final Generalpower wasn't Nerve Gas but rather field promotion in order to increase the Rate of Fire on the Pandora as well as my Pioneers. -------------------- Drop Commander |

Also in the end, Skitt was aiming towards Venom since low economy Nope was going venom cos it wrecks Eca, eca has issues dealing with the mech battalion if flanked Eco has nothing to do with what prot i pick. though in that fight i wasnt gonan go pandora due to its tendancy to cause crashs This post has been edited by mr_Skittles: 5 May 2016, 22:47 -------------------- |

I see ECA has a new superweapon. Random crashes.
Even brightest minds can't figure out what causes it. This post has been edited by Mirrowel: 5 May 2016, 22:54 -------------------- |

It is an experimental weapon after all.
