You felt out the best counter to arclites, outranging them is your best bet. That means you need to respect the pivot (especially if any Intelligent cards show up). Elite Marksmen on a unit that can keep up with their range is a good choice. The other thing is that Arclites don’t do THAT much damage. So units with a lot of HP can keep them busy. Like a rhino with super heavy armor sent straight at the arclite with the beacon upgrade. The flank method is to flank them. If they’re not in the middle of the formation a flank can kill or distract them from doing their actual job.
34:30. Putting the rhino up front just seems to isolate him. He can’t tank anything for the rest of your army if he dies before your army gets in range.
I really enjoy running rhinos against stormcallers because they just outrun the missiles and then farm XP. Also, if they get high enough level they can just solo entire armies.
1:28:00 if you are worried about the balls targeting the rhinos instead of the chaff, a unit of emp storms on each side could be great. Emp is just good for countering a lot of stuff.
Sometimes you should just pick your unit to counter the other board. like making sure the sledges target the chaff/mustangs by placing them RIGHT in front haha incase of day9 you should just build rhinos
Hey Day9, was just wondering: If I gift subs or donate something on twitch while you are offline, do you still notice and read the message? Don't wanna seem like a copy cat because you helped another person in a similar way during your BOAT stream
The comedy of Sean enacting the "I'm a genius! // Oh no!!" meme never ceases to entertain.
Day9 and mechabellum is just great vibes all around
For anyone who isn't aware, Rhino Specialist unlocks the rhino unit for free on round 3. There is no need to pay 50 credits to unlock it.
Give rhinos the "shin-shoryuken" upgrade and let them attack air.

Battle 2, Round 6: Very strong "Rush him, he's just one man!" energy. 25:00
"*ironic pause*...I apologize, it appears that I've lied to all of you." comedy gold

Rhinos running away from hackers has worked for me. Good times!
27:00 GOD THANK somebody pointed that out, shaking my head at the vod xD
That's a good salmon recipe. Have you grilled or broiled it skin on and then just toss some teriyaki on it. Rice microwave whatever veggies. Yum!
Love the videos Day9TV and you've got me hooked on the game as well. So much dang fun.
First guy just rage quit, perfect
the realization that the hackers weren't going to work.. just delightful.
I laughed way too hard at the first match when the boats came out
lmao I was so excited for Giant Hunter to pay off but then the only round where it did, the game was over.

melting point got electro granedes upgrade, imma try it out next time i face arclights
holy shit rhinos look like THAT
Rhino wasps might be a decent combo
Ah the path to victory, just have more higher level stuff.
Wouldn't it be smart to counter enemy Fortresses placed in melee range on all the flanks with Rhinos placed in melee range?
48:29, I wanted D9 to try column vs rows on the different sides. A live test to see how they perform.
30:58 - Rhinoceros-ome.
@Day9 each storm is only 50 damage to player health. 200 cost / 4 units.
Sean "I'm not attached to symmetry"
Also sean every game: builds symmetrically
You can play games and not be addicted to them. That's not a contradiction.
…RHINOS!

Day9 don't you know that you should never go full Rhino?!?
I've been back dooring with the fortress and won 200 Mmr lols, fun trying to figure out how to stop MP
Hey, I noticed your thumbnail and just wanted to say- that's a really nice shirt.
