how to counter gc?

Postby Masyaka » 19 Mar 2017, 09:41

I can use com vs spider, but gc has too much hp and com will mostly likely die. Any other cheap ways? (not rav walls)

Loyalists i guess, but you will need some micro or/and some luck with GC pulling loyalist in with his claws.
also would be cool to have some other units to shoow GC while it is stunned.

Also if you're pretty desperate, mass t1 point defense is cheap and effective, but be sure to space it out.

And if you're good at predicting, you can tml an incoming GC.

you can also get some heavy combad upgraides on your ACU + gun upgraide, and if you fight GC vs your t4(chicken, ML, mega, your own GC) you can also bring your ACU and hide it behind your t4 and walk forfard together to get closer and start to OC GC.
and ofc you will need alot of power and you can die if you are unlucky and some BS will happen.

probably no, they key here is that you will have your own T4 AND acu AND acu will hide behind t4 so it does not get sniped
that way you can get alot of extra damage on GC and your t4 will probably survive with alot of HP.
