How to Survive Supreme’s ‘Suicide Spot’: 3 Fixes for 10-15 OS Players
Supreme Isthmus’ Suicide Spot is a cruel test of your efficiency as a BAR player. Most players can make 2-3 simple fixes to get more out of less. Below, we’ll talk about how properly preparing your build power, army, and queues will take your gameplay to the next level.
Fix #1: Trade commander position for Build Power (BP)
Isolated commanders are less effective without a supporting army. Without BP, you can’t build a supporting army.
So, let’s finish 2 constructors, and then push. Keeping your commander in base this little bit longer will make him much more intimidating at the front line.
Fix #2: Trade speed for range
Pawns’ speed is powerful when there’s space, but Supreme Isthmus is a bottleneck. Rocketeers use range to dominate any Commander/LLT blockade.
You only need 3-5 pawns to close the open ground early; after that, switch to longer range units.
Fix #3: Queue when it’s quiet
In the early game, you don’t have enough to do – but in the mid game, there’s too much to do! With a solid plan, you can queue ahead for mid game transitions, giving you spare APM when you need it most.
Your factory can often be queued at 30 seconds all the way to the t2 transition, often around 6 minutes. Try this queue:
1 rez bot -> 2 pawns -> 2 constructors -> 3 pawns -> 10 rocketeer -> 1 rez bot -> 10 rocketeer -> 1 rez bot -> 2 constructors
This queue will last you until 5-6 minutes, when you can begin ecoing and boosting Geo’s T2.
Your constructors are easy: Just guard your factory.
Give your rez bot a large reclaim order over most of your side of the map. It’ll go find more trees when it’s done at your base.
Your commander can be queued right to the front line. I like to put my commander on repeat-on and give it an area repair over the front line so he never stops repairing your army and defences.
Conclusion:
These 3 tips will give you a robust base, powerful front line, and plenty of time to micro your units to victory.

Multi-graph view: Update to Stats widget
The best stats viewer in BAR is even better! Ctrl-click a graph to add to display. Single-click a graph to reset to viewing a single graph. And, fixed delta view!
Bug fix:
- Partial fix for delta view: shown values will now be accurate when the graph is small.
QoL improvement:,
- Graph will vertically re-scale when some lines are hidden.
- Less spacing to provide more space for graphs.
Known issues:,
- Values (e.g. for delta) may still change around scaling when the graph is smaller or the game is longer, making it difficult to read in real-time.
- UI is very dense, and for large numbers of graphs, parts of the UI may be truncated or hidden.
