Found a different one on Corona where you died to a strat and some t2 FB. Your "air" player went for mex upgrades while your enemy air got aras and strats. Other than more scouting, mobile aa and shields i can only tell you to avoid games where your air guy isn't doing anything while your enemy air actually makes units.

I will be scouting air players myself next games, ill do like this

Strats > tons of T1 aa, shield com, dodge until ground fire
T1/T2 gunships > T1 aa or flaks if had
T3 gunships > flaks or sams of had
T2 bombers > shield com, flaks, if sera or aeon and no sheilds dodge until enemy ground fire
Mercy > Flaks or T1 AA

If theres more options or im wrong pls tell me. Our air players never scout and the main target of enemy is me.

Precisely, Phil.

One does not simply rush strats on 4 core mexes and have them out by min 15. You have to look at the rating of your air player and if he is not being helpful early in the game, either get air units yourself (an airfac or two spamming inties just so you are not killed by a lone gunship or a strat (15 inties take out a strat before 3rd or 4th pass)), push your air player to do something (if he says "stfu noob" tell him that he is not doing anything to win the game) or get T3 suite and build SAMs

15 mins strats are nothing special assuming that the map you play is a teamgame map with a dedicated air slot.

number 5327988 the lastest i got. You can watch all replays where i have died and you'll be sure that Air4Life for me. This one was the one the easiest counter but no scouting air players make me die to every single air snipe right before i can unleash SACUs at them. Also, i need to know what to do to not get sniped by any method ever, i cant use flaks effectively againist strats, cant use T1 AA againist gunships. Lacking of scouting players makes me die to any of snipe.

The easiest method would be to forego a team games i think.

You can watch some replays of me being nuked with strats by min 15 by a player with 4 mexes. May be his team was supporting him, but any way to get a strat at 15 min not gap game is a real danger to enemy land players that dont have powerfull AA options while fighting with enemy land.

Ever heard of ASF?

ASF by 15 min is mostly air players i think,and im busy with enemy land players so i cant go ASF effectively (mass, some pgens) ANd usually those who rush strats by 15 min with 4 mexes would have tons of interceptors or ASF long ago before me.

Died 5 times in a row to some air snipes/air players/early strats, also many times before dying to land atleast once. I want to know whats escalation of anti-air tools, when to place them and how to not die to 15 min strats, tons of gunships without making inties (they instadie when fly out so whats the point). I cant do anything anymore because every strat i use againist enemy land infront of me i get nuked by strats of their air player or elese shit what happends if enemy makes air ever. Mobile AA sucks to bombers, gunships, nukes and T2 is slow to build, same about that happends if T1 AA meets a strat.
