How to defend your Harvesters from high level opponents aside from using scouting and using low level units?

You might consider bringing some counters to the usual harvester rushing units. I know some that are used are Jump-jet Troopers, Missile/Laser Squad, laser drones, pit-bull and attack bikes. I would suggest using laser/missile squads and flame/shock-wave troopers in your deck. Are you a tech user and do you belong to an alliance? If its no for the 2nd question, try joining mine: ChronoCommandos with alliance ID of w698t30h.

@willy28LaoisokWhat deck are you using and what units that attack your Harvester that you are having problems with.

I could suggest a defensive MG nest, would ward off most attacks on your harvester. One thing to note is scarabs. If one managed to get to your harvester, kiss it goodbye. The next moment, that harvester's a smoldering chunk of metal.

There is no counter if your opponenet use rhino+pitbull or buggy+bikes which are 2 lvl over yours. Except some map that the tiberium field hex is at the corner and u can block the access, what ever u build in early game cannot stop them.

This happens all along from lower leagues to tiberium. The game is P2W oriented, just ignore the unfair match up and pray for the next fair game. I dont recommend paying to close the difference.

@eggpatrickI disagree that there is “no counter” for anything. For example, if you are able to get a Scarab planted in front of your Harvester you can potentially take out both of those units with one Scarab. Destroying the 60/70 Tib rush for only 30 Tib. And if your opponent comes with that particular rush and you stop it... it’s basically game over because you have suuuuuuuuuuuch a head start. Because that means they went no Harvester and your Tiberium count should be laps ahead of theirs.

What about with GDI?
