I've been winging it pretty hard in the live league so it's not my best showing. Glad you liked the game. Also, that's my live profile my other profile is Mr.GreenSuit at around 1300 elo (old).
Match spoiler warning What decided the game here is getting two missiles before he even started charging his second Winter Fury. Being an entire superpower behind is a brutal situation to be in, unless you were deliberately saving your super for a game ending push, which only really works for COs like Jess or Eagle.
Personally, I think you were a little too aggressive with the captures. I think I prefer maximizing income and going aggressive with early and frequent vehicle/unit trading instead. Spoilers below. Editing as I continue to watch: AHH! Humita is letting Olaf build units! I mean I suppose it's fine since 3k income + comtower advantage is very strong. Forcing the fight by threatening an additional comtower and city is also very good since Olaf is forced to either concede them or get into a fight he does not want to get into. I'd just no-fear the WF and trade everything down because each unit traded makes WF weaker and makes Covering Fire more difficult to magnet. Humita did no-fear attack into it. yay!
I know live league and all, so hindsight is 20 20, but at 12:58 wouldn't it have been more beneficial to take a shot at the Infantry on the harbor? Sure, you will lose the Recon, but you practically halt the capture chains on the eastern side of the map. You lose a 4k unit but deny about 3 to 5k of income.
Definitely viable, I guess my thought process at the time was to deny him from skipping that city and going for comm tower instead, cause I really wanted to deny the comm cap.

Mr.Greensuit is who trained me in Standard :D
Got your back penguin!
You got 2 solid Rachel supers with only 1 winter fury. The way you controlled the power bar led you to victory.
joins a live match to relax and end up with tachycardia
tachy meaning fast, cardia meaning heart. Fast Heart

sami and lash with their super, capping hq :D
What am amazing match, the way you turned it around after such a bad start. Well played and grrst analysis!
Fun video, it felt like a game of chicken with the powers being pointed at each other
Oh hey, I also had the exact same matchup against mrgreensuit but on a different map
I feel like you would have lost the match if you didn't sack units for that first covering fire. Really felt like the tide of the battle changed there
Casual... but what a game! - Btw We would like a match with Kanbei
Yay, that made my day :)
Dropped the video at the perfect time for dinner
Thank you for another great video! Hope the move went well!

Good aggresion
I would have played exactly the same as Mr. Green right up to the point where he made a second tank, would have made an AA
