Keep in mind there will be certain flaws in every set, but that one is just fine. There is a LOS hole to the Cleric, but in the grey game it won't matter because you would take their Scout, and end up saving your Cleric.

Shoot cleric - BW
that is all..

Once they shoot Cleric you can LW and then you can block to LOS hole, thus saving your Cleric and putting their Scout in a lot of danger.

LOS hole? A grey set will always have an LOS hole in some regard... Its a non issue for the most part.

What I do suggest is that you move the assassin towards the middle (if not where the scout is) and move the witch to a more mobile position, where it can walk through your wall, where the assassin is, or on the other side of the barrier even.

He was referring to BW'ing his own Scout, but that's true as well.

Dres, all that is needed after BW'ing and your scout is LW'd, if your BW to be sniped and then your Scout will be open for a kill. Not to mention, it also would change the general play of the game, as the player who just killed your Scout will then be likely to play a little more offensive because their Scout is in your base anyway (from hitting the BW).

IMHO....

b/w is too exposed. If you will be playing an aggressive game and don't expect to be on the defensive, then it is OK. But if you intend to defend, I could have a field day with that b/w....

A hard punch could come around the side and hit your "squishy" units (like cleric, witch, chanty). That COULD be a problem.

Lastly, if someone were to send a knight and scout around teh side, with the scout plinking at your squishy units and the knight preventing the chanty from paralyzing, you would be forced to move some knights down there to help. That could open your formation up and let a frontal assault in.

Just some thoughts.

switch the ass to the other side of the bw and you will be better off

Thats what I said :p Yo learz, if you think that barrier is too exposed, you have not played too many experienced players. The whole reason the barrier is there is to allow cleric movement, and make it so that melee units must be within LW range in order to hit it.

During endgame, its a priceless advantage, especially if you have a cleric.

Heehee.
I hit 1451 with my grey :p

While many people could write books about where to place the b/w (I place mine 1 square back and 1 square to the right), it all depends on your style.
Bottle prefers his b/w next to the cleric, for example.

I've played many people with the same b/w placement as you, and it is easy for a mage or scout to stand outside your formation and hit it. And if the ranged unit is backed up by 1 or 2 knights (or a b/w), it will effectivly prevent you from using yours. It might be good in end game against melee, but if a ranged unit is alive end game....

But whatever works for you!
(and I congradulate you for not taking a pyro!! :wink2: )

huge holes? Well from what i can only guess is a tao board the whole left field is empty. Mabie you need units over there. That is really the only hole i see.

[Young Cha1]

What's the point of that assasin right there? The LOS is already blocked, and it has nowhere to move to develop an effective attack or defense. Move it to other side of bw or somewhere near there.

I dont like the positioning of the DMW. She really cant do much from where she is.

Ah yes, that is true.

For those of you who think this is so, and that the BW is too exposed, the answer is to switch the position of the BW and the Witch. Not only does this protect the BW more when barriering units and allows the Witch to be more threatening, but it also means melee opponents will have a much tougher time getting to your Cleric in end-game if the Chanty is used to freeze off the other side. Hence, I find it to be much more effective to switch their placements.

[clay]

That's what I was thinking. It would improve the setup drastically

[celdem2]

One flaw is that the witch in order to attack has to hit your own units. Which isn't bad in some cases but is bad sometimes switch the places of the bw and the witch and your ok D:

[Forest_Archer]

The only flaw I see is that it's just too basic. Being one of the better players (not too brag, but it's how I got my avy :p) for grey in FPS, I could do well with any set. However, it's just not fun. heck, half the games I play in rev I surrender because it's boring. :p

[Jolly Rancher]

I like it ^_^

[*Sanosuke*]

this form sucks. XD

[Bloody-Killer]

move the witch in front of chanty put teh scout next to teh far end knight in the middle put teh assaisn where the scout was but 1 step back then your done :)

haha except my grey center setup. :P theres no flaws in that beau :)

[*Sanosuke*]

LW kills center setup ^^

LW kills center setup ^^

I have beaten many LW's with a center setup. If you do it correctly, an LW can be taken advantage of. The delay between an LW's strike is just to long. If you have the correct setup, you can let him hit a knight or something, then rush with everything and have at least 3 more people in there hacking away before you even get a second strike.

LW does not = ownage of center setup

I'd say your set is pretty good, solid for any grey who'd try to take you on I guess
