In my own opinion, the strategies adopted at the early game can definitely make all the difference in your gaming. There are some tips for getting started and I strongly recommend mastering the basic controls, exploring the map, and also prioritizing resource gathering to get you started. Additionally, it's crucial to note that a solid foundation will definitely set you up for success in your RTS game journey.
 
I totally agree with you because building a strong team is very essential and it can boost the early game which can definitely lead to you dominating the game in the end.
 
You have to get your map control right. This is where you take the better position because when you have the best spots, controlling them will significantly impact your economy and overall power against your opponents.
 
When I was new, I focused on gathering resources, building the economy, establishing defensive perimeter, and expanding territory. I believe new players should also focus on training an army, learn tactics like micro-maagement and macro-management, and counter strategies.
 
I usually scout the enemy's position and it has really saved me from making costly mistakes at the early stage of the game. I also found using a beginner-friendly guild very useful for guidance.
