That was fun to watch. Though I'm not sure how well that would work against more careful opponents. He could have killed your mobi on turn 10 after you moved it up into that vulnerable position. Sure his soldier would have died (and his runner he would have had to send up there to take the mobi's third health point), but the mobi did cost you 7 to make. Alternatively he could have taken a more defensive approach and simply blocked off his base with 2 soldiers on turn 10 after killing your runner. I'm not sure what would have happened from that point as your mobi would still be a threat (still they wouldn't have lost the game on your next move if they had walled with soldiers). Not sure what he was thinking =/ He was able to see your mobi and it's clear you could move it within range of warping a unit next to his base. Not to mention you hadn't lost your starting heavy so it's safe to assume you would warp your heavy up there.

Anyway, I like the idea of a mobi rush though. I've often considered trying to rush out a mobi like that but usually my ally and I play more defensively since most 2v2 teams we match against start aggression from the start. With our style (holding off the first major push) we can then go on to counter after their aggression has been locked down and we have a superior unit lead. No time to get out special units in our 2v2s unfortunately =(
