- According to the other team, I broke Xbox Live's ToS for making 3 Scarabs in a single game and attacking. Did I cheat in Halo Wars 2? You be the judge.

I’ve long waited for the day you’d get caught, Andrew.
Do you actually think he's hacking?
Genuine question
@@miketofsky3834 he's clearly joking cmon now
this guy is like the secret antagonist of His Carrer
@@miketofsky3834 bruh he’s obviously joking
I checked the Xbox Code of Conduct and it says if you build 3 scarabs in Halo Wars 2 then Phil Spencer will come to your house and take your xbox, RIP TeamRespawn
lol
I believe it.
*I'm gonna put some dirt in your eye...*
He takes your Xbox one and switches it out for a series X.
not gonna lie i would kinda be okay with that.
"Your honour, he built OP units! Surely that's gotta be against the ToS, right?"
*Team Respawn found guilty of building scarabs in competitive*
For committing a war crime in building three scarabs in a single match, you are hereby condemned to winning the game.
the best thing they have done, by posting this vid is essentially giving us all the name of someone who would report someone just because they themselves suck at the game. We now have full reign to go call that player a complete idiot on xbox live
@@sliestwheel Hah. If you want to, go ahead. I just find it a little bit sad that someone would report a player because they lost.
No hacking involved, the player just built units he couldn't deal with so he tried to rain some salt on the victory with the report threat.
its only illegal if its disabled normally.
@@sliestwheel This player is probably having a bad day, caught on camera at the moment they lost their temper. Harassing people isn't cool, especially for something this pointless.
The funniest part is for the whole time he was building the scarabs it was essentially a 2 v 3. So it’s their faults for not being able to win with such a advantage
imagine being one of the many grunts his teammate made.
They're getting slaughtered.
There is no hope for victory.
Then, over the hill comes a charge of 3 Scarabs bringing death to your enemies.
"We saved, you in big trouble nooooowwww!" *squeaky grunt voice*
Look to my coming on the first light of the fifth day, at dawn look to the east.
Basically the scene in the War of the Worlds movie with Tom Cruise, when the military are atop the hill getting wasted via alien tripods
@@tylersingleton9284
Scarab Commander: "Grunts, can you hear me?
...
On your left."
That does sound epic when you imagine it that way
I bet Reach also filed a report against the Covenant when they glassed the planet.
"Bro.."
"Wort?"
"You glassed my planet I'm reporting you!"
"WORT???"
@@Keegstar "See you in court"
"WORT!! WORT!! WORT!!"
Great set of comments here made me lmao
there cant be a report if they have nobody to report it- covenant
Yeah, Master Chief delivered it personally
I thought it was common knowledge that having 3 Scarabs is against the Geneva Convention.
Suggestion
What is this.... G....eva....convention.... *The sound of Four scarabs destroying everything* Is it a food? lol
Me and my friends: "we think you mean the Geneva Suggestion, right" as 9 Scarabs are terrorizing the battle field
@@Star_Commander_Nip_Nup Ah yes I meant Geneva Suggestions, my apologies.
It's not part of the Geneva Suggestions if there is no witnesses.
Having 3 scarabs is just fun and not illegal, i mean they could have built 3 scarabs too if their strategy wasn't so bad hahaha
I think they were just so clueless they couldn't believe you could make 3 scarabs + leader in that time tbh.
They were playing UNSC, so it would be 3 Condors
just do what everyone does and just spam air units
Ngl feel like yapyap would be good for this
@@markeddeer9384 probably, especially since he has 3 hero units. Quality wouldn't really matter, as they'd be fighting regular infantry.
I personally prefer Pavium for this strategy, as you can build large artillery guns to support your scarabs, and Pavium himself can repair them with his drone.
Rule 101 especially in starcraft:
Seeing no units for a few mins equals
the horde or purge units is drawing near.
BLOOD RUSH!!!!!!!
As someone who plays Starcraft religiously, if my opponent has no map presence and barely any bases… yeah he’s up to something
@@lelouchvibritannia7809 the more quiet they are the more dangerous the units
@@lelouchvibritannia7809 but then there is players like me, absolutely garbage and dedicating the first 10 or so mins to defense.
one time was in a 1v1 dude terran turtled so i mass brood and ultas... you can guess who won
Didnt see them scout your base once, maybe they should have realized something fucky was going on when you had zero map presence besides your starting unit
You'd be suprised how often people would overlook that. Blue was just fighting red the other two I don't know. I had something similar happen to me. Just built up and no one came and checked.
When you’re that hard on the backfoot it hardly matters.
@@Longshot441 other guy think attacked other dude but was wiped out one guy said dark blue has nothing so assume lost all units and didn't really build any units after that.
seems light blue only guy making units and was mainly just attacking red since red just kept attacking him
Yeah, I litrally only played ten games of halo wars and thats the main thing I was paranoid of. I would send motorcycle guys to recon all the bases. But that may be why I sucked at this game too
We need more money arthur
I've had this happen to me back in the day. Playing Starcraft 2 multiplayer, me an a friend both playing Zerg were reported for committing a Zerg Rush. Let me repeat that, Zerg players, were reported, for Zerg Rushing, with Zerg.
"ThAtS nOt FaIr! YoU cAnT sEnD sWaRmS oF zErGlInGs ThAt EaRlY! mY uNcLe WoRkS fOr BlIzZaRd, I gEt YoU bAnNeD!" Or something like that?
@@gryphose1849 Bingo.
What?!
@@Twittershouldceasetoexist Some people are just like that, if they're losing it's not that they are inept, you must be cheating.
HOW DARE! also gg
Imagine losing a 3v2 for 13 minutes straight and then wondering why you didn't win in the end... Yellow could've built nothing but Ghosts and they still would've won because, lol, the other 2 guys kept them in check without him.
That's what I was thinking; these guys put no pressure on an enemy player for 13 min; of course, he is going to steamroller them. This happens in almost all other RTS games, for example, in C&C Red Alert 2; fail to put pressure on a Soviet player, expect to have an oh shit moment when you repeatedly hear "Kirov reporting" as enough zeppelins to blot out the sun proceed to carpet bomb you into the stone age.
exactly, if you can't handle a little grunt spam in a 3v2 then what's the difference between scarabs an idk buggers maybe?
Defensive RTS players be like:
@@ryanlorenzo5003
Me, I turtle up to a fault. Great for falling back on, not for winning the match
@@phinix250 ive played All the CnC games Expect for rivals cause i just cant play another terrible CnC game CnC4 was enough for me but anyways Kirovs arent a problem when dealing with Soviet players its when they make Apoc Tanks Plus its 10x worse when they have a iron curtain ready.the Kirov spam is more of a CnC meme than anything else It is very powerful when your enemy isnt good at playing attention but theres so many units that can like knock down kirovs when used in mass it doesnt really mean much not to mention RA2 gots the veterancy system so its even worse for the kirovs.
Come on Andrew, just admit to your long criminal history of building Scarabs
Guilty as charged!
@@TeamRespawn *STOP YOU VIOLATED THE LAW*
@@TeamRespawn You have committed crimes against Halo and her people.
What say you in your defense?
-Bribe
-Turn yourself in
- Finish the fight.
@@TeamRespawn Stop! You Violated The Law, Pay The Court A Fine or Serve Your Sentence, Your Produced Scarabs Are Forfeit.
@@potatosniper3796 Then pay with your Heresy!
The Elites commanding the Grunts: "Hold the line, HOLD THE LIIIINE!!"
The Scarabs finally stomping over the hill: "Your request for reinforcements, has been acknowledged."
i just imagined that being said in sovereigns voice from mass effect
Don't know why everyone complains about the super units. I love it when my opponents build them. That 40 supply and a lot of resources tied up in one unit that doesn't move fast and gets melted by just about anything that can target it.
I think the whining was on how fast they got built, but that is entierly on them
If you know what you're doing? And have some decent teammates that can send power and supply if needed? Five minutes to get all three out and be wrecking bases near you.
One thing you should know about just about any strategy game, if you haven't seen a player all game, assume they're stocking up
Guys like "Build Units next time." And I'm like.... "He did! He built three Units!"
pretty sure he meant the enemy and not his teammate. it was basicly 3v2 until the scarabs came into play, and the enemy were basicly struggling with grunts and just assumed yellow was out of the game despite not seeing any of their units.
...... ye know... eyes are like your ears. Ye gotta clean em time to time.... xD
The covenant invade Earth and bring at least 3 Scarabs
UNSC: "I'm reporting you!"
Enemy: "You're cheating!"
OP: "like, thats your own opinion man"
The dude abides
Now see, being better than the enemy team gives you an unfair advantage. This proves that you are definetely cheating because you're not allowed to be better than them.
Precisely lol
Yeah that's usually how it goes anymore, You could have a legitimately good player that knows what they're doing and be able to kick butt and take names. But because that person was better than the enemy team. Then that means that person is hacking and they're a cheater. When in reality, it just means the enemy team sucks and needs to get good. LOL.🤣🤣
This feels like an actual mission on a videogame, imagine playing as one of the grunt that his teamate made and you need to keep the enemies busy until reinforcements arrived.
Its amazing how mad people get in FPS and RTS games specifically.
Then may I suggest MMORPGs.
Yeah you gotta remember guys if you have any sort of real skill even if it's a little bit better than them you're a piece of crap least that's the way they wanna take it which frankly if They just suck well that's their fault
don't forget MOBAs
Dark Souls rage < RTS rage < FPS rage < MOBA rage < Let's Players playing Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy rage
Oh trust me they get just as mad in all other hobbies it’s just not highlighted so much because nobody has any agenda regarding cancelling mainstream entertainment. If anything gamers are in general much more chill than most other hobbyists.
What I love about this video is that none of those three ever scouted his bases or encountered an army from him. Logically one should put together that he simply held his resources. Also someone literally was going all grunts 😂😂. That means he could’ve simply given all his power to the scarab cause lol 😂.
"Reported making 3 scarabs in halo wars" Me: Halo Wars is multiplayer?
How many times did u post this comment?
Edit: this one got 59 likes and the first one below it only got 3... Comment algorithms? Lol. Btw hw2 multiplayer is a blast.
@@Brandon-vg7pl 2 years late, but it could've been mobile lag, it can cause multiple of the same post sometimes
Had someone who said they were a dev and reported me for kicking him for kicking him off the server and that pc players were ruining the game. Poor kid had terrible grammar and spelling.
Probably was a snowflake 5 year old
Andrew you naughty boi how dare you poo on this Kevin, you’re supposed to lose and let them win.
Kevin?
I have made three scarabs so many times you are allowed to do that Kevin
Just discovered you on TH-cam, played a bit of the original Halo Wars but never wars 2 aside from the beta/demo, but man your banter is exactly what I would look for in a trio or duo! You remind me of the old days on wars with my buddy. Perfect vid and the triple scarabs... I'd be mad too lmao. Great commentary to all 3 of you.
Thank you so much!
That joke about the thermostat was criminal. Just like your gameplay, Andrew
You held back, let your friends/allies do all of the attacking, just to allow yourself time to field three massive, game ending, tanks....that's not cheating, that's smart. It was allowed in the game's normal code, they were just sore losers. Granted I'd be pissed at losing to you like that, but that's the breaks, you out smarted them.
I cannot believe they were in a stalemate in a 3v2 for so gosh dang long
Man high rank players just can't handle a lose can they?
Was the other team *really* that high of a rank, when one guy held them off with a grunt swarm?
@@jordananderson2728 I mean all 99 so they must be a little decent at the game
@@LuckyAJC or play alot
High rank doesn't mean anything. Fail enough times, and you'll eventually reach the top in games like this where you get point towards a rank up no matter what, and no progress removed if you lose.
@@staffsargemobuto
When it comes to team based games, you can't punish players for losing when whether or not you win is based entirely on the match making. For example, you think someone who's only recently started playing Halo MCC should get punished for being matched against someone who's been playing Halo for 20 years? Sure you can not reward them, but a straight up penalty is just stupid.
Getting beaten is like a slap to the face. Three Scarabs is more of being bare footed before stomped in the toes by spiky hiking boots, while watching.
"Punishment is one thing, but this is cruelty"
I was playing in lower ranks once and had stolen one of their mini and i guess they just never realized and then i made 3 condors on their bases...
Ah but you see, the contracts of humans means nothing to aliens!
(Initiates glassing)
This reminds me of a WH 40k DoW2 match I was in years ago. Team game. Victory Points. A Space Marine player had a powerful infantry force that he death-blobbed and was regularly wrecking the shit out of my Tyranids. I simply did not have the tools available (or resources for that matter) at that particular time to properly counter him and was on the backfoot alongside my team. I decided I needed to change my approach to help my team win because I was only bleeding models and burning resources at little cost to my opponents.
This Space Marine player had two terminator squads and was the biggest threat from our opposition. High-tier super-heavy infantry. Typically, seeing more than one fielded by the same player is considered griefing, though the way I see it if the rules allow it, it's up to the opposition to find a counter strategy to that. After all, people are only using the tools that are available. My current unit comp couldn't deal with that let alone that guy also having at least one tactical squad, an assault squad, and I think a plasma devastator squad aside from his Force Commander hero all supporting these terminators. I decided to beat his overwhelming anti-infantry capability with monstrous creatures that weren't nearly as susceptible to his weaponry, so I went for Carnifex spam. Uncouth, but if this guy was gonna continue playing as he was unchecked, we were gonna lose.
While he could eventually bring one down I was able to get two, then later three, on the field at once after some time and resource management. I was able to push him out and start killing his guys. The Space Marine player decides to have a fit that he can't kick my ass like he was earlier in the game because I'm bringing in units he isn't equipped to efficiently deal with. This guy griefing my team with his two terminators, a unit that's quite difficult to get rid of, and his anti-infantry death-star wants to get on my case for bringing something to the table he can't properly counter? The tools are there, it's up to him to figure out how to deal with my brute-force counter "strategy". I fought cancer with cancer. My team's collective efforts won in the end, but the salt from that guy; absolutely no self-awareness.
I always called this trick the Scarab Steam Roll. First time it happened to me, I was so impressed that I wasn't even mad in the least.
I too know a secret bug. I want you to try it. Be Isabel and someone else Serina, let Serina build her Icethrowers and you decoy them. Watch the ice buildup from the decoys. Only way for decoys to do actual damage. May work with air units too.
Man i remember in halo wars 1 that you could build 2 scarab and 10 engineers. Now THAT was classic haha
Me on the enemy squad: Why do I suddenly hear boss music?
*Other team reports you for making 3 scarabs*
Me to the other team: You stupid karens
The enemy was Team Karens all along
When he told you to build units, you should've informed him that you had built 3 :D lol.
posting this before you reveal the scarabs, you CAN send each scarab and the leader to different places, infusion wake a 5th place, and then pop cat. cat 5 places at once and witness the purest form of chedder
I don't play this game, or know what any of that means, but holy s*** does it sound evil as f***.........
@@matthewwilmeth1579 makes it possible to completely strip 5 bases at one time and because of the sheer scale of the assault it would be VERY difficult to do much about it. On top of that if you do it right and spread the infusion properly all of your scarabs and leader will also be healing/damage boosted while this is occuring
@@schneecoraxx8689 sweet Christmas that sounds brutal haha
So because you have team mates that are good enough and willing to let you cheese a game for a laugh its against TOS...
I would have loved to see you state "Sounds like a you problem.".
*I missed the part where that's my problem.*
“Go file a complaint” that’s gold
It's not cheating when you can build 3 Scarebs. They are just sad
its a sad, unfun "strat"
@@FoxGoesSquee not really, he had lots of fun building 3 scarabs. What’s sad is losing 3-2 while he did nothing but build 3 scarabs
@@doomedbringer i mean when put against guys like this i see the fun. But when in “serious” matches or just doing the “strat” every game is annoying and i cant see how its fun. Ive played agains a guy a few times when it was low pop and they only pumped out uber units. Not fun.
@@FoxGoesSquee it seems your definition of fun is for one side to not play to their fullest potential or how they want. They had a 1 man advantage for most of the game, if they were better they would have won
@@FoxGoesSquee Its like fighter spam in Empire at war for rebels
what I've seen in this video
Yellow: builds three scarabs in 13 minutes
Red: idk man that's kinda slow you could've done better
light blue: omg cheating
everyone else: quietly accepting fate
Clear violation on the UN Human Rights Charter on Halo Wars 2.
Covenant: "Talk to the Gravity Hammer"
@@CallofDutyBlackOps28 More like talk to Scarab Plasma Beam 😀 complemented with anti air cannons for extra fun 😅
I'm reporting you for a major breach of the Internationally Cheddar Convention.
That was too much cheddar!!
One scarab alone was a pain in the ass to take down in the mainline games, I can't imagine fighting three.
"This man has like, 6 Kodiaks."
Ah yes, the Terran Main.
Just imagone how mad they would have been with 4 Scarabs.
I would have reported too for unconstitutional gameplay. The founding fathers would be sad.
Based, love how swiftly you start moving the scarabs and leader just to focus massacre on the base.
Hey Andrew what is a trees least favorite month?
Sep-timber
sap timber 😳😳😳
I hate you both equally
have a like
Ah yes, no one really did anything to take you out of the game when it was clear you were acting strange, and weren't making much map presence. They got what was coming to them.
13:35 I love that, "theres another war council right there!!" That made me giggle
Him: I'll just make 3 units
The 3 units: Scarabs
The enemy team: WTF
I always tripod scarabs lmao, it’s literally unbeatable if looked out for by your teammate
Everything seems clear to me. Ye got the red army with the infantry spam. The orange guys with medium motorized infantry. And then the one guy focusing on the BIG GUNS while the other two distract the ennemy. Legit strategy. Disgusting, but legit xD
If anything it was just making management easier since there was minimal micromanagement for the team since they knew what they had to make and not worry about anything else
I like how the scarabs just never stopped walking forwards.
Hey Andrew did you hear about the guy who cut off the left side of his body?
He's all right now
😅
Imagine being the person who reads their complaint. "The doodoo head built 3 scarabs and team wiped us because we didn't build any units or try and fight back."
It's all fun and games until you're the one caught in the beam of 3 scarabs.
F to pay respects
Based solely on what was recorded, I will be filing a complaint with the UNSC and demanding that all leader powers be equipped with a can of Raid. It's the only way to balance the field of battle when faced with 3 giant bugs :)
Thanks for having me!
Any time! UwU
Yeeet
The best way to win is by spamming suicide grunts on their base until they pity you enough to forfeit the match.
I would rather have 3 scarabs vs all the other cheap rush strats
You can hijack em too with heros
alternate title instead of sending hate mail i sent 3 scarabs
Imagine being such a clown that you not only get caught on TH-cam failing to beat down a 3v2 for 13 minutes straight, but also being a poo-head in chat and getting laughed out of the lobby by your opponents. 😎
So no ones going to talk about how this man was making a yo mama joke and after being told the mom was dead he continued the joke and finished it? had me rolling
Your a grunt in battle and your being slaughtered then over the hill like that one scene in war of the worlds, 3 scarabs appear all hope is lost, and this short war is over
I have no room to talk, I've done the same thing in other RTSs. "Hey, think you guys can protect me while I build (overpowered unit) ? "Oh yeah, " "sure" "go for it!"
"Build units next time." He clearly built 3 Units.
Yet again, Andrew has failed to beat my scarab rush record 😎
my question as an avid RTS player. Why didn't they think something was up when they didn't see yellow ALL GAME. I would be like oh shit im dumb for not even checking what yellow was doing.
I mean hey, if you don't see one player use any units for like five minutes and don't get suspicious, you deserve to get stomped by ultimates.
I didn’t even know u could report people on halo wars 2 tbh
I've never played this game, seen this game, or heard of this game. I'm so sleep deprived.
I can't stop wheezing.
I've done this in single player a lot but I never thought it was possible to do it in multiplayer. The AI is pretty easy to trick but in all seriousness it's impressive you are able to pull it off. I've only been able to pull it off against the legendary AI once, with a sheer amount of luck
I wonder how long the war on the Ark would've lasted if Cutter had reported Atriox for sending in 3 Scarabs during Last Stand...
"Build units" *builds 3 Scarab's* "Build non-boss units."
Lol. Your scarabs rode on Hosties coat tails. Grunt defence and offence against warthogs I bow down.
Can't even get to that point without getting marine spammed
"Your mom-"
"Dead."
"I'm gonna pretend I didn't hear that."
the moderator or whatever reading the report: ''okay but why did you let him build 3 scarabs you telling me you left him alone for the whole match and didn't think that would happen?''
honestly? I do the same thing in almost every game like this if I can because it's honestly just cool to watch your small group of murder robots or whatever vaporizing the enemy like they're on a calm stroll on the beach and having zero issues. and when I had the demo of either this or the first game, I'd basically have an engineer or two near a scarab to keep it healthy. so I say keep building them scarabs and giving the salty people a hard time with them. lol
Off subject, you and Ed are the reason i finally tried Kinsano out.
so much fun.
it took me a minute to figure kinsano out but once i did she is so fun XD has some trouble with deci and his banshees but i usually have a team mate i can use as an AA bot
Morgan is great in HW2!
That guy has to be joking like he's probably just in awe of seeing 3 scarabs paying his base a visit cheddarful overall
Thanks for not hiding their names! I love knowing who the little batches are lol
Am I missing something here? 3 Scarabs is completely normal in my experience. Me and the friend I play with regularly love beating the enemy down then saving up for 6 scarabs for a final grand finale.
I don't know why TH-cam only just showed me this now but it was worth the watch and the laugh.
"Player used a valid tactic, reported!"
I used to play a year ago, but when i tried to play again recently, the game just crashes right at start.
I love it but sadly i cannot find a single fix.
Just imagine the entire team made scarabs. I know super units aren’t strong as they seem but 9 would a scary game. Just imagine a skull that made the only unit scarabs and the capacity was 400
I love the Scarab wave tactic as I call it. I do it with decimus and his combat siphon, makes them so annoying to kill in a big fight.
Man tells him to build units next time. If he had done that these guys wouldnt have even lasted those 13 minutes it took to build the scarabs.
I mean if they win a 3v2 there's some questions to be asked
Imagine playing the game with a non-cheating advantage, and playing the game as you're supposed to.
Had a game with me and a couple friends. We all got scarabs ready, the max amount to be specific per player, then we had a sudden kamikaze, wiped our infantry, then rushed the enemy with three scarabs per foe. Their reactions were great.
I have discovered that colony is the best for this strategy if you spec into the leader points for engineer's warm and passive healing Plus combat hardened or whatever it is to get more veterancy your scarabs basically become Immortal because they heal in combat and also out of combat so moving between combat you basically regenerate to full health
I don’t ever want to go against them, even though I probably already have 😰
