Guaranteed to work, as long as you meet the requirements (lol). So if you watch the video, it's not really a strategy, more of something I did when I was bored.
its funny cos the scarabs would still win the game in this scenario, they can just walk around the wall and can win without even needing to fight it. You basically spent all your eco on building a landmine in the middle of the map that has no purpose
Strategic placement dude!!! Whenever I play on certain maps(like the docs for example) I strategicly place my cobras so they don't take 10 seconds just to turn the turret... That's what saved me this one match.... I had four cobras 3 of them being manned by Spartans to defend the middle so the enemy couldn't get in. Well if I hadn't placed them correctly the 2 side by side scarabs would've broke through and I had like no other military other than 4 cyclopses to heal them and 2 marine squads in towers. I lost the one cobra not being manned by Spartans but hey I killed 2 scarabs in less time then it took your cobras because STRATEGIC PLACEMENT!!!!
I love how you say nothing can stop them when you clearly tested them against vehicles so that they seem super powerful. Besides, any decent player would realize to either A : Put their scarab on the hill so your cobras cannot attack it, or B : BUILD AIR ! Thumbs up if you agree
I prefer the deathmatch strategy of waiting for your Mac blast and then having you and your teammate send scouts to one base and Mac blast! About 45 seconds that happens
scout rushes, how the hell are you going to get enough of these for a scout rush defence, plus scouts are fast if they move them around the base, your troops would just have to unsettle and move, then they would move again, if you managed to actually kill them I'm I'm sure, they opponent would already by producing air units. its fun to see, but not to be the one doing it when it fails, it as you saw, it failed
my type of strategy are usually ambushes.i send a warthog as a scout and explore.they even tell you about an advancing army so i set up my defenses.i also use the warthog to find ambush points on where shall i send my units.when the A.I. voice says the enemy will attack here or something.the ambush go straight ahead charge into the advancing army.half of the main army will go and flank them.Best with hell jumpers and warthogs
My best Halo Wars strategy is to get 3 Spartans, 1 scorpion, 1 wolverine, 1 cobra (and have those Spartans commandeer them),2 vultures,3 Odsts/Marines,and 3 flamethrowers, what's funny is that all those units together in one group only take up 25 population, so you only need 2 bases MAX,unless you want more units which will make even more targets for the enemy
No, I mean a Vulcan. It's what a good number of people call a bunch of Cobras stacked on top of each other, with at least one Spartan. You can look it up if you like.
That ending though. "Nothing can kill my army of cobras, so im going to have to." Few seconds later after mac blast-prophet rolls in with laser "oh shit except that." XD
Cobra's are anti armor units, basically Tank Destroyers, you could use them against infantry, but their low fire rate and lack of a blast radius on impact makes them less effective against large groups of infantry. A good way to supplement this cobra Strategy is to play as Sargent Forge, and have a mixture of Cobra's, Wolverines, and Grizzly tanks, you have the Cobra's to Focus down the enemies Wraiths, Scorpions, Wharthogs, Ghosts, whatever the send ground vehicle wise, and you have your Wolverines to take out any Hornets, Banshees, Hawks, Vampires, Vultures, they can also target the Prophet when he has been upgraded with the flying chair, and you have the Grizzly's to help take care of the ground vehicles with their cannons, machine guns to help with air units, and their canister shell to FUBAR any infantry that decide to cluster together, having about 10 of each or so, you can have a few more wolverines since they cost only 2 population. put them in about the same positions, but have the Wolverines sit back a bit, since they are squishier and cant take much damage. but have the Cobras sit in the same spots, and have the Grizzly's sit in the second line.
you could also suppliment this with some Air units as well, like you could have a Vulture or two, and maybe some Hornets to take out Hunters, since they are good against vehicles, and as well as taking out the enemies Cobra's
i get odst at first, but then i eventually send them on a suicide mission as i start to get vultures, then use new odsts to support vultures, or to just help friends out.
ah control him all the way there and adapt on the fly you'd clear them in no time. and as soon as you kill one u could switch sides as cobras turn to slowly to keep up.
@DanishnSonic hmm interesting for playing the AI but my stategy is a line of cobras with a line of wolverines behind them so they cant get in the way and shoot over then have about 15 hell jumpers come in behind then maybe some vulture come down from the cliffs firing off rockets it owned a 6 scarab army
I got a stragey to! it works better on 3 vs 3 maps, Ok first build mostly supplie pads 1 barraks 1 viechal depot. (3 reactors on 2 or 3 bases) Upgrade your sqorpians and spartens to top. put 2 in tanks, one on the ground make 2 or 3 odst soldiers upgrade your renforcment count and make as much tanks as you can. Your ready to blow people out of way! I did this stragy I made and I beat the game in 20 mins. Well I did have 6 bases tho. Loll..... DON'T FORGET TURRETS! ( stragy only on human side.)
He could have had Wolverines replace the second line of Cobras which would have annihilated the Prophet of Regret, oh and by the way Cobras can still attack infantry
this is a really unlikley tactic becuase where would you find the time to capture the other bases (all of them and have your enemy just sit there) and where would you find the money
I can beat this....... one banshee
its funny cos the scarabs would still win the game in this scenario, they can just walk around the wall and can win without even needing to fight it. You basically spent all your eco on building a landmine in the middle of the map that has no purpose
Guy Bucknell I use cobras near my base and them mixed with anti infantry and air turrets and your basically unstoppable lol
how did this get so many dislikes this is halarious
Right?! I totally agree with you.
there will always be haters.
because theres no content in the video that reflects the title 'awsome halo wars strategy' ( its not hate, its just that the video doesn't deliver)
Guy Bucknell Did you just reply to a 2 and 5 year old comment?
I'm doing the same!
It's called "sarcasm"...
@@Republi121 I'm also doing the same 1 yr later
1 hornet gg game over lol jk
Lol
"so you see i put my army of cobras in a U form"
human team anouncer: Carpet bomb ready! mac blast ready!
*spams powers*

Thumbs up if you agree
the moral of the story is: send in one alien professor xsavior to do the job of two death bugs
Then comes one vampire
They don't do much damage to vehicles since they are anti air it would be much more effective to use banshees.
But eventually the one vampire will kill all of them
I prefer the deathmatch strategy of waiting for your Mac blast and then having you and your teammate send scouts to one base and Mac blast! About 45 seconds that happens
There is literally no one who would do that
I would do that.

Dusk Bespoke They are good for delayed scout rushes.
all he needs is a few flamethrowers, 3 wolverines, and he is UNSTOPPABLE!!!!!!!!!
my type of strategy are usually ambushes.i send a warthog as a scout and explore.they even tell you about an advancing army so i set up my defenses.i also use the warthog to find ambush points on where shall i send my units.when the A.I. voice says the enemy will attack here or something.the ambush go straight ahead charge into the advancing army.half of the main army will go and flank them.Best with hell jumpers and warthogs
So this entire stratgey can be destroyed by 1 banshee
Years later and this shit is still funny af
This actually ended up being useful since my friend's strategy involves a ridiculous amount of ghosts and a fully upgraded arbiter haha
1. Nobody is going to send in 99 ghosts.
2. Hawks would tear you apart
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂I was dieing when I saw what he built
The scarab could of also just climbed over the mountain.
*could HAVE
Me- "Somebody give that engineer a plasma pistol...he is going to learn how to fight.."

He is getting pretty excited over those cobras
No, I mean a Vulcan. It's what a good number of people call a bunch of Cobras stacked on top of each other, with at least one Spartan. You can look it up if you like.
This WOULD have an awesome strategy if he had a teammate who built vampires, then had the vamps come up with the cobras.
Lol. "You have to assume that the other guy is waiting like 40 minutes to attack you... And is building all ghosts."
That ending though. "Nothing can kill my army of cobras, so im going to have to." Few seconds later after mac blast-prophet rolls in with laser "oh shit except that." XD

One thing about that, grizzlies are worse then power turret tanks and has been proven
Well he said engineers only. You added the prophet
Cobra's shoot at vehicles being transported by pelicans. :>
and nobody uses ghost as a weapon but I love this vid man it looks so sick good job
If only a sparten could pop out of the cobra and hijack the prophet lol
*One hornet flys by*
The floating ghost bits make more sense than this strategy
i get odst at first, but then i eventually send them on a suicide mission as i start to get vultures, then use new odsts to support vultures, or to just help friends out.
A friend that's your enemy? Frienemy?
99 warthogs make 99 warthogs
just one vampire
was about to say, "just one banshee." haha
OHH I HAD NO IDEA WHAT YOU SAID BEFORE BUT NOW I DO
You play Deathmatch and build more bases, each bases add 10 to your population and you start out with 15 army pop
D-E-A-T-H-M-A-T-C-H (Vinyl)
Cobras can't attack air units. Saw the video?The prophet was flying and he couldn't even be attacked by cobras.
ah control him all the way there and adapt on the fly you'd clear them in no time. and as soon as you kill one u could switch sides as cobras turn to slowly to keep up.
I did that too!!! Haha with wolves as well
Ill take you on with my one banshee
Yea if the enemies get a massive armada then your screwed!
lmao "you know what fuck this " i couldnt stop laughing
surround a Base with cobras and get some wolverines
I like to see you take on my 1 banshee
then comes a single banshee
Hawks FTW. Cobras can't shoot air vehicles.
You have to play the deathmatch game mode, whenever you capture a base in this gamemode it increases the population cap.
best way to beat something like this is air units
I prefer adding wolverines with them incase if they have any air units
if only friendly fire was on
Yes its a good strategy, but if you don't have any trops or turrets to protect, it's gg with hornets or banshees.
Accept aircraft can kill em
if cobras are locked up they can destroy aircraft
One banshee flys three and kills everything
Deathmatch increases your pop count for how many bases you have... Anyone should know this.
@DanishnSonic hmm interesting for playing the AI but my stategy is a line of cobras with a line of wolverines behind them so they cant get in the way and shoot over then have about 15 hell jumpers come in behind then maybe some vulture come down from the cliffs firing off rockets it owned a 6 scarab army
That is carpet bomb heaven
its deathmatch, every base you get increases max pop.
i would of done 1 line of cobras for the vechicles and infantry and 1 line of wolverines for planes and prophets
Any flying vehicle Takes cobras easily cobras can't aim up you must have wolves too thumbs up if agree
HE CAN NOT BUILD A VAMPIRE BECAUSE HE IS A HUMAN PERSON PLAYING AS THE HUMANS
got 99 problems but a airfield is one
I got a stragey to! it works better on 3 vs 3 maps, Ok first build mostly supplie pads 1 barraks 1 viechal depot. (3 reactors on 2 or 3 bases) Upgrade your sqorpians and spartens to top. put 2 in tanks, one on the ground make 2 or 3 odst soldiers upgrade your renforcment count and make as much tanks as you can. Your ready to blow people out of way! I did this stragy I made and I beat the game in 20 mins. Well I did have 6 bases tho. Loll..... DON'T FORGET TURRETS! ( stragy only on human side.)
one problem, no one on a public lobby would give you enough time for dat, also some air units and your sweet strategy is done for
@cod4headshotz
In deathmatch if you take a base you get more pop, so you get all bases
death match each base you take you get 10 more unit space
3:18 on the bottom there is 1 non-locked cobra
Works every time, except that time
I did this before reason why I block 6wolverines with cobras or get 1vulture.
dude put marines in the to sniping nest
took down TWO SCARABS.....in like 5 SECONDS!!!!! 5 FREAKIN SECONDS!!!!!
you would only need 1 banshee to kill all thoose
All i do is rush with ODST. I get them by the 8:00 minute mark and start poopin them out. Rare that i lose.
Bro all they need is banshees or a prophet get some wolverines
that ghost thing was so unrealistic...
99 Ghosts and a banshee ain't one.
Banshee? I dont see the banshee... Maybe you mean the prophet of regret?
@MegaChrisMarshall im just taking my brothers word for it he plays halo wars 24/7
Man prolly has a wife and kids by now
U know what cobras can aim up if a Spartan is hijacking something or if they are transporting their units
One vamp
So all of that work then you get taken out by '1' Prophet...
Yeah great strategy, until one banshee comes over and fcks u up. Lol
ok then go to private match with a friend one makes an engineer the other makes a cobra. lets see who wins
99 cobras and a ghost aint one if you having ghost problems I feel bad for you son hit me.
the like bar is unbalanced! ;O
there is no 3v3 matchmaking, but its a cool vid.
1 banshee.
This will not work well in multiplayer since generally opponents will go with hunter or bashees which would have destroyed those cobras.
He could have had Wolverines replace the second line of Cobras which would have annihilated the Prophet of Regret, oh and by the way Cobras can still attack infantry
Whenever I destoy my own units my dad gets mad at me.
army of cobras vs 1 vampire, vampire wins
If he went air he could have destroyed you
Should'a build a Vulcan.
this is a really unlikley tactic becuase where would you find the time to capture the other bases (all of them and have your enemy just sit there) and where would you find the money
its so funny how all these people are wondering how to get 99 pop.
ITS DEATHMATCH THE MORE BASES U HAVE THE MORE POP.
there ya go
Ya encontre una forma de acabar con tu estrategia con la UNSC.
Mando un Hornet/Hawk a un punto ciego y transporto mis tropas con pelicans.
99 times out of 100 this strategy would sadly lose
