Empire Triple Refinery Build Order & Counter Cryo Rush as Empire! | Red Alert 3
We are back to our Beginner's Build Order Guide series with an economic build! The Imperial Triple-Ref Eco-Boom Opener is a risky build that's viable in competitive plays! Empire's building mechanic allows them to pump out three Refinery Cores right away and gain a third ore expansion right off the bat. Though this leaves you with very little cash to spend early on, having three refineries running the entire time grants you an edge in mid / late game economy.
The triple ref strat is a game of survival - You are highly vulnerable to aggressive rushes early on, especially when an Allied player decided to Cryo Rush you! In this video, I'll showcase how to deal with early Cryocopter harassment from Allies as an Empire player. Secure nearby Refineries with Defender VX Turrets and accumulate Tengus whenever you can!
I hope you find this video helpful. Stay tuned for more build order guides & strategy videos!
