Halo Wars 2 - Ice Bison Utility Opener - Using Serina for early aggression 

You sound a little refreshed good to see you're feeling good after your trip

Serena is pretty op, not gonna lie. She can freeze whole armies and destroy them, nothing you can do about it..

Welcome back Pat! Good to see you doing some videos again. I haven't actually played the last couple of days, but from what I have seen, I feel like Serina is great in ones but with some snipers and marine grenade it should be possible to counter in 2's and 3's. I definitely want to try and see what the meta is like soon so I don't fall behind!

I think it'd be a cool (no pun intended) idea to put your build order and what to do with your starter marines in the description just for more helpful referancing Also, when a building is being chilled, the build time is significantly increased. A jackrabbit trains in 31 seconds compared to 23 upon chilling, a 33% increase. The build time reduction dosent increase the higher the chill bar.

She is OP as fuck. It's the same as fucking Douglas. Do they even test the shit before they release it?

For those that do not know the counter to this is just do the similar build but make hell bringers. Hell bringers are much stronger than than the cryo troopers (even cryo troopers at infantry level (2) However do not do direct fight with serina units cause the Bison will win the fight. You have to defensive with this, scout frequent and if she is heading to your base with cryo troopers then get HellBringers and start at least one turrent, best to have it anti in vehicle to scare off the Bison while you go for her units. (Don't forget about your hero very important in the fight.) When she retreats that is when you expand so you can keep up ecnomically while she treated, grab some power nodes as well to get to tech 2 fast as you can. You want Tech 2-3 Before she does or around when she does. Hopes this help and as for banished I haven't tried yet but I'm sure it is the same but get rangers instead.

She needs to be balanced.

Use Ice barrier around the enemy base. It is broken.

Against bases is sooo efective but against units is a little bit crap, the only way it can survive is using his 'y' and supporting him all the time

So. I tried the original Arbiter, Enforcer Rush, and got crushed by Serina. I genuinely feel like her CCR is absolutely ridiculous. She legit controls the flow of the battle way too much. But I'm too stubborn to believe the Arbiter rush is out of play. In an actual Match between pro players, both even. Can Arbiter Keep up with Serina early? What should a person do?

I just got back from a vacation a few a days before this vid as well lol

Arbiter can do this early game, just need to burn rage to do it. No big deal though

you should really make a video about colony again, i won 15 Rounds today o swear, i did the goliath rodeo and it's waay stronger now since they're so cheap, i have 14 Goliaths in 5 minutes, its op!

Why arent cryotroopers called hailtroopers instead?

If I try to do this I usually get shut down by a dougles or Jerome hero unti

*played a 1v1 vs serina* *freezes my pads with cubes so i earn no income* *loses 12 csr*

Doesn't wsir have a build like this ?

Which one is your fav Halo wars our halo wars 2

I can't stand how everyone rushes. and what's with the unbalanced human leaders. Colony's defense was the only plus to the banished and they needed the fuck outta him. Why are there 3 more humans than banished. I really hate how HW2 turned out.

Recycle the armoury and put a generator up(Y) it's of no use until tech 2 after bison upgrade

Couldn't marine grenades melt the cryo troopers though? (Pun intended)

Do you think Jerome was nerfed too heavily?

Where abouts in Europe lol you can't just say an entire continent hahahahahha culture in Scotland vs turkey is a little bit different ;) ps nice video, love the strat!

Did they change the voice actress for Serina in HW2?

Is this still a valid strat?

Why is ai on normal??? Heroic is easy

NERF SERINA PLZ

I suck at Halo Wars 2.

I wouldn't be suprised if they nerf her in the next update cause people bitch and complain bout her :/
