Just started playing after watching your videos for the past month, game is definitely a lot tougher to play than to watch. Still fun though :) Any tips for comps using rhinos? I think they're pretty cool. :edit: just finished the video and you mentioned crawler rhino with sandworms, think I'll give it a shot in my low mmr lobbies. Will def have to do anti air worms though because low mmr players love overlords and phoenixes.
I tried to force this comp a few times because it's so cool thematically... but I don't think it works. Imo, Sandworms' best role is distraction. If they are on the front of your army, they can force enemies to switch targets often and waste a lot of time. That's a big part of why worms don't work well with crawlers. Crawlers have a shorter attack range, so not only do they not utilize the distraction from worms, but they actually take it away by being closer to enemies.
29:50 I think it's mostly about some players sitting at 0 points by the end of the game and feeling bad, if they instead have something like a third to half the points of the winning player then the game feels more fun, it feels like they didn't achieve nothing the entire game if they end at 0
Would those worms be good for going around the opponent and take their tower out? Might also be good to just get a full undergrund team going? alternatively get a shield unit in there too?
i think it's that they just don't fit, i have seen them used very well, i think they are kinda like wraiths in that the times you can use them well are limited but when you can they are pretty good.

just noticed did they buff air and elite specialist's? i don't remember the 10% buffs for air or the extra 100 supplies on round one.

Are scorpions bad or do they just not fit into many comps? Never seem to see them get taken or win.

New unit _and_ new map. Bless.
