Halo Wars - Chieftain-Chopper Rush Covenant Strategy

[Rjwagster]

For everybody who hates getting rushed, play as arby. Most rushes involve infantry or weak vehicles which he can dominate and he can take out prophet and chieften early game.

[planbsk8life1]

suck itiititititit

[xxxFrOMeXxxx]

LMFAO 3:20, he's a recruit.

[iCA7V7VO7V]

the best rush ever is be regret, build temple first, send prophet in, done =)

(only works against bots not real players)

[ZTS132]

whats your gtag

[iBrandn]

I Dont wanna use this if its not legendary bot

[kennyscott11]

the only way i would rush is using the cheiftain in the whole game

[xXGfXxOdin]

YO OWNNNN

[elively64]

try a grunt rush

[elively64]

Dude do a warthog rush with some spartans

[6Twisted]

I've tested both the Brute rush and Chopper rush. I found the chopper rush takes longer before you can attack and they lack damage but they do train faster and have more health. I thought the Brute rush was more effective just because I remember I had 20+ Choppers and they where barely doing any damage (They where upgraded once as well)

[jbrux55]

grunt charge but you need like 40 squads of them to get anything done

[TheHalokng]

if u build 4 or 5 brute choppers that should make 6, and everyone (6choppers and Cheifton) have 1st upgrade including vortex that will defend off against a early hog rush early. it also works on marins just build like 8 or 9.

[GTO19020]

hmmmm....to all you ppl hatin on the rush....its a strategy just like all others...if a player who considers himself skillful leaves himself open in the beginning of the game then he deserves to die. Iv had ppl tell me "only noobs rush" and my response is "only a noob like yourself would fail to scout me and see that the rush is coming" all rushes are very easy 2 defend against if you get a min or 2 heads up. Scout, React, Adapt. Best Strategy. Period

[meshrange]

Only noobs do rushes? are u RETARD? ...... takes more skll.

[ColdShadow3993]

@meshrange I dont rush but if you cant counter it dont bitch about it.

[Br0k3nGL4ZZ]

@meshrange lol.... when you ask someone if their retarded.... dont fail the spelling....

[123magicman321]

in the time you waste building up chopper rushes for 1v1s which is a total 2v2 method i could have beaten you before you even got 5 choppers out with the chieftan... so you suck... ass... from a straw

[sacrafice123456]

@123magicman321 but thats why you suck fucker

[123magicman321]

@sacrafice123456 idiot... i dont suck i bet you dont even play this game so shut the fuck up

[Br0k3nGL4ZZ]

@123magicman321 wait.... are you saying you could take out the choppers with a chieftain or that you just couldve beaten him? either way its a deft comment...

[MrDudeguy88]

that was good, might try it out soon :)

[oamLHeadBangerLmao]

Nice rush, one of the better ones, probably even better than the warthog rush lol

[TheIPvClan]

@oamLHeadBangerLmao warthog rush cud counter this rush easy if they had gauss cannons which i can get in before 5 mins

[shady1237]

i dont really do rushes only nubs to rushes

[awesomebanzi]

scarabs are the best rush units and my favourite units

[tomanater00]

brute choppers are one of the most fail units in the game.

[dominique8330]

there is no elites ?

[theshoe124]

@beaupivot - wraths dont suck! theyre one of the covenants strongest units!

i hade a scarab and 30 enineers, it died with enough concentration

[LordTaoTang]

They tend to suck mid-late game

[yocow7]

yea what the last guy said like mabe get 1 strong unit and the rest enginers so that the one unit would never die

[kosterbryan]

would it be an idea to use arbi,PoR or Brute with like 30 egineers?

[Christian8Christian]

try using the ram ability when its upgraded. it bearly does any damage but when choppers in group they work like suicide grunts

[sorwdking34]

Ithought the cheiftan leader would hve tartarus's voice

[gamefreak1000000]

Dude, the chieftain should be Tartarus instead!

[LeoT416]

@gamefreak1000000

the cheiftain is tartarus

[gamefreak1000000]

Wow are you high or something? They look totally different. Do me a favor and look up the two on Google. You'll find out that Tartarus had nothing to do with the attack on Harvest.

[LordTaoTang]

Dude the BC in Halo Wars is so muching Fucking better than that worthless Piece of Shit Tartarus

SO no he shouldn't

[gamefreak1000000]

Actually, he was the chieftain of the brutes and if it weren't for his death, he would have probably exterminated all elites and replaced them with brutes.

[LordTaoTang]

Nope, he couldnt stand against the Arbiter and Johnson

He wouldnt even stand a chance against Master Cheif, if he had lived he would of just perished by the hands of the Arbiter or Master Cheif

The Brute Cheiftain is so much cooler in HW he has cool armor and isnt an idiot blind (Blind as in blind by The Great Journey) pansy

[beaupivot]

i think of a rush as at MOST 6 or 7 minutes but thats for a pretty strong rush or you are very slow with things. also i say pretty strong because stronger units take longest. for rushes i usually get alot of units out before upgrades.... also just to tell everyone wraiths usually suck but against marines or ODST they rule so counter marine rush with wraith rush

[PersonzillaFilms]

Hey, my GT is jelly beans 14. I can start an air rush for you to counter. My trick to counter using loooooots of ODSTs, LOOOOOOOOTs of anti air turrets. And LOOOOOOOOOOOOOTs of RPG and Splazer spartans. Plus my twitter is the same as my GT

[dk8ty]

i cane help rgc bob19785

[xrickyx0]

the brute chieftains upgrade is called earthright not birthright.

[gamefreak1000000]

rofl you just eliminated the correct answer.

[adi1096]

HOw many supplies does that thing give you?

[xkillaxskillx1]

counter chopper rush, how bout that will that work?

[DBro222]

EVERYTHING is a counter chopper rush....

[Korther]

1) This isnt a rush, a rush is prior to 3:20

2) You're fighting an AI, fight an AI with a level of 150+ on auto or do these online.

3) This is a terrible rush

[sasuke64palms]

lmao a rush is attacking a base, within the first 10:00 minutes

[Korther]

A rush is not 10:00...ask any experienced rusher or halo wars player. A rush is prior to 3:00 (4:00 if you're going Scorpion Rush...). Anything other than that is just an early attack or an attack. I can get 40/40 Hawks in 10:00. That wouldnt be a rush. A rush would be me going in at 2:30 with 5 brute squads and my BC, and just keep beaming them in.

[Pokemonfan1234567]

yea, i can get scorpions, (without rushing) in about 6 minutes, which would probably obliterate these choppers, oh and get turrets,

[ryansuen]

and thats what he did,and finished it within 10 minutes

[spartain512]

you should teach people how to defend from rushes

[coldclash23]

you do know its from step 6 to step 8

their is no step 7?

[adi1096]

You do know that there is right? Look at 2 :45

[likewtf1234]

u need to stop upgrading cheiftan and build another vehicle depo with the extra money, so you can build coppers twice as fast :)

[xtbxmaniac]

i like halo wars but who would pay £20 for a fuckin book for locations for suplies when u can find them for ur self

[LordTaoTang]

he didnt say thats all that was in it...

[zzxcvb98]

well in the video he didnt build anything except for choppers, i suppose the chieftain counts but you could have better supporting units for him

[zzxcvb98]

choppers are terrible

[funnybrownguy33]

i was once in 3v3 and we were all the different cvenant so we rush our leaders to the enemy bases

we captured the bases close to the and made those bases purely for supplies

we upgraded all our leaders and made scarabs and we won!

[LordTaoTang]

You fought noobs who didn't scout i bet...

[Skills4J00]

He fought an A.I.......

[ROCKER9080]

do a hunter suicid grunt rush

[DAN5312000]

you should do a voulcher rush

[UnbuckledTurtle]

do a  odst rush

[dalekalex]

DO A GRUNT RUSH!!!!

[asassin698]

this could be easily stopped by air or heavy vehicles.Why dont u show us how to make a perfect built up team of not all one unit.

[wyccad690]

it's pretty simple, just make some anti air, some air, some anti infintry, it's not hard but it's not something you can rush with...

[IIChAwLzII]

nice vids but the whole be paid to play video games thing was kinda dissapointing. if i was to really start being paid to play video games i would have to start off by paying some guy like 100 bucks plus 20 to start... =l

[Rabidnick]

what do u guys think the best rush is for UNSC and covent :)

[Omega04271]

Hey i have had lots of problems with the arbitar and infantry rush. The Arbitar has rage that kills all and every unit that u have instantly. if you could make a counter for that it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

[keyoken7]

A strategy you should make a video on a Arbiter banshee rush what u do is the same thing but with banshees and arbiter

comment or message me back if you want to know the full strat to make a video with. Thanks.

[joelboyslego]

i like being the profet and just send him in strat

[frostbite234]

i would like to counter attack these Strategies gamer tag:xXFrostbiteXx25

[pwnage669]

yeah i will do a rush and see if you can counter it. My gamertag is  Monkey bobby333

[kitfesto13]

Will u make a grunt rush vid that would be cool

[playhalodude]

why don't you play on legendary you know to make it realistic for online play?

Ya I know these are mostly for skirimsh but can you make some online strats?

P.S Before you even say it, yes I can make my own strats

[itiswilliam]

i tried this and ended up in a 2 hour long

3v3!!! By far my favourite battle

[ryanleethomas08]

why dont u do rush online or summin instead of bots

[cool8932]

im just saying that have you noticed that all your rushes that you posted are within 10 minutes or less

[DarkTempler1]

seriously these are the worst strategies... why would you post them I honestly dont understand??

post some "pro"phet vids and then I might consider you to not be a complete noob

[XPlay050894]

y dont u shut up and literally FUCK YOUR OWN FACE!!! He's posting strategies for noobs like me

FYI: I havent played Halo Wars yet so I'm learning some strats

[TerryAdam1993]

these wont help you online FYI

[XPlay050894]

go die in a hole

[soulreaper108]

Thats tottal shit alot of his stategies have helped me online obviously you dipshits dont know what to do in the right situation and panic and lose

[SgtChubb]

This is a good rush that i'd like to try sometime (I haven't used Choppers yet), but I think that the Brute packs are more powerful than the Choppers (Brutes start with a powerful weapon off the bat, wheras the choppers need to be upgraded). I like Brute packs as they are good against everything, and I hope these really are likewise...

[haloflare312]

You should do a honor guard elite rush

[XPlay050894]

yea, that would be so kick ass

[inthecards21]

nice vids, i tried this 5 times online 1 v. 1 and only won twice, against UNSC, it sucks against covy cause of the leader but against marines it's better than a leader rush.

[EthanCaineDotCom]

Good point I should have said use for UNSC only since the Cov leaders usually dominate.

[zacklye]

i can help you with the counter rush videos. My gamer tag is zackattack0813.

[888blueflamefilms888]

i have a hilarious rush that u might love that i came up with and its the suicide grunts rush it blows up the base in not even 30 sec!!!!!! try it and show it and my gamer tag is slayervxz8992 and i know its gay but it was my old account on reg xbox anyway its a sweet rush a funny rush and i would like to b ur friendd on xbox live. hope to c u soon and ive visted ur sites and subscribed to ur u tube account

[IamxIShadowWarrior]

7:10 wouldn't you distroy the reactors first as almost anything needs one reactor?

[HaloRox92]

Its a really good straegy

[modeadsex]

I have some strategies that aren't full on rush but you can consider it one since I can get 5 vultures up inside 8 minutes.

[obsight]

man this is rlly easy to counter

hunter/ banshee (what i usually do) kills this

[00AllScorpion00]

by 6 minutes, no u cant

[00AllScorpion00]

im sorry but i have to say it TEMPLE IS THE WORSE BUILDING TO BUILD FIRST FOR THE CONVENANT!!!!!!

[HaloWarsEliteDotCom]

Only if you DON'T know where the supplies on the map are. Send the COV leader out to harvest 5x quicker than the chopper.

[00AllScorpion00]

trust me i know about this game a warhouse is the best building to build first!!!! it doesnt matter how fast ur leader collects crates

[ZSN1P3R]

@00AllScorpion00 u always want to get ur leader out ASAP they are strong and collects supplies a lot faster, also its good for defending ur own base or going for an early rush where u can teleport ur units.

[soulreaper108]

Awsome stategy most of your strategys seem to work alot for meXD

[k9j]

yeh tell me about it.. i can get gauss hogs by 6mins and a full population of hogs by 12mins at the longest. plus a leader rush would own this rush

[Dsloby]

Good rush. I basically on rush because im a recruit still. So i want to play some long matches to rank up, so those anti rush strats will be nice.

[kennymcgrath28]

yea lol

2nd !

is this game really worth getting ?

i destroy at the demo

[k9j]

yeh.. but the demo is piss easy. human players give you a real challenge. great game

[celticlad2006]

good strategy, first to comment and watch :)

[HaloWarsEliteDotCom]

haha someone gave your comment a thumbs down...guess they were enraged they missed first...

[nogalo24]

i gave it a thumbs up because im awsome like that and your vids kick ass
