This is false. I'm looking at a game on my iPad right at this moment where my partner is green, I am blue, and my partner went first.

Oh so its only in friendlies

But the order is always blue red green yellow consecutively so im not comfusing myself about the advantage part

But it doesn't necessarily always start with blue. I can start a game and be P1 red, and the blue opponent will show up before me in the list, even though he hasn't gone.

Really? I though the one who starts the game is always p1, how do you change it?

I'm not saying that the person who starts the game isn't P1. I think you're getting things confused now, lol. If I start a 2v2, game I can be P1 or P2, but I can also be any color (meaning either base).

I think I have an answer, but I haven't got a forum-active partner to test it with.

Now this is probably very wrong, but what I think would work is this:



And after turn 6, this would happen:



Now, the sniper could still shoot the yellow soldier, but that would require to move the top soldier beforehand, which can't hit the base now. Actually, this would still be better than killing the heavy:



And you can wave your rush goodbye.

Now, there's one scenario after turn 7 I'm not sure about:



And fate just couldn't resist making this map 666 on OMC.

I don't have my iPad on me though, so I can't test this though. Maybe a take 2 for Mag!c and Powee?

Wow. Really scared of this rush now.

Notice that, turn 10, i missed one wit to kill the snipe. And I could have saved that wit turn 2, moving the runner wasn't necessary

But indeed this rush is extremely powerful.
