Your Thor build is very inefficient... armory idle super long and research techs in the wrong order and way too late. Also making way too many gatherers (dwarfs are just better). Also pushing zebra for no reason (you waste food to rot and the pushing takes longer than it just takes the vils to move up to next zebra...) Try this: First 3 dwarves to gold Berserker builds armory (ideally covering your gold). Then circles your base to scout. When armory completes you'll make in order: Copper armor, Copper shields and Hammer of thunder. First free dwarf goes to gold, second and third to food. 1 villager to wood, builds ox cart. This is the only villager you'll make. 2 more dwarves to gold. 2 more dwarves to wood. You want to force drop 5 wood with your villager once when you can because you need 75 wood for copper shields. (not a big deal if you forget, delays shields and hammer by 5 seconds). further dwarves all to food. First food dwarf whacks herdables to get 5 favor, if you have few you can shoot a few hunt to get the favor. Move the ox cart to food if you can't lure it. Ideally your 3 wood choppers go to tree close to the hunt or gold, otherwise just a straggler. Berserker builds house when he can after copper shields. Then temple when you have the wood which should finish around 3:20. Dwarf 19 and 20 (at 3:15 and 3:30) go to wood Click up at 20 workers at 3:30 After click up in order of priority get hersir (build at least 4 non-stop), get copper weapons (free dwarf to wood) and get another ox cart. You'll have 6 on gold, 6 on wood 9 on food. Just try it out, compared to what you do you'll arrive in classical 15 seconds later. But you'll have all the first armory techs thus 3 more dwarves already. Plus you'll have more Hersir.
id rather be thor in this matchup that being said, i feel like boit played it ok but threw away his army a few times. the first major push seemed very optimistic to say the least
GG Rapl! I'll get you next time! Or the time after that, or maybe after that...
@@BoitTV 🤣 you already did against my Austrian smurf
😃
