1V1 games bear no resembalence to team games. They are as far removed from each other as SP is to MP. The abilities need to play team games well require skills that only come with experience, they cannot be learnt on forums.

Generally speaking a good knowledge of the units and how the game engine works with be enough to win most 1v1 TW games no matter what the era. This is probably why 90% of MP games are team based as 1v1 is dull and lacks any type of strategy
