Towering

Ha I was just playing 4vs4 orc and it was so funny we all towered them Nightelves. They got some seige but by the time they got em out we got air. It was harh though. But towering isnt bad sometimes. It works on newbies. What do u think?

Yeah towering is a lost art these days :/ I thought it was kinda cool. It is like hero harrassing in a sense, useless if they are prepared for it, although if they are prepared and kill your towers before they go up (or you cancel em) then your build strat is altered which really messes things up later in the game, so i guess thats why people don't do it anymore.

Um Incase u didn't know Towerinm is only good for rushin,
In Mid battle wen u rush and attack ther base n biuld towers in ther base to piss them off!!
Im tellin u Towerin is really effective theyv don it to me twice!
But Towerrin....is just not on!!!..........I mean its useless to tower if ther going Heavy units lik Abomination, Taurens Chimeras's Frost Wyrms!! Especsilally coz they can freeze the towers from attackin!
But i still don no about Towering!:sly

The reason y towering isnt that good in TFT is because now the damage is lowered and their hp isnt as high also something like the armor isnt fortefied anymroe i think tat also contributes to them being killed so easily and not makeing them as super as they were before.

true plus the new upgrade for orc looks awsome for all the buildings its like they got a rock cage surrounding and protecting it and it does wonders when people r attacking it.

I was Orc, and my partners were NE and 2 Humans. One of them got pumelled by tower (NE), but they weren't very good at towering, I got mass Beserkers and Catapults and I killed their towersd, then we couter-rushed them and of course, they had like no units, they spent all their money on towers + ups, we won!

I've never been a real fan of towering.. its a shoddy strategy when u make a decent army of melee and so does ur team mate, you just attack the towers simultaniusly and down they go.

Towering is viable with EVERY race, solo and team.

Human tower rush is tough for NEs
Undead can do it midgame
Elves can do it with protectors early/midgame, especially in team games
Orcs can do it earlygame, even with medium armour

Prettymuch NO. While NE is horribly suspicable to tower rushes, there's just too many units able to attack once you start building. And NE shouldn't Ancient rush at all. It's murder.

Towering only works when you do it right, but you don't see it as much anymore.
