In my opinion, SvS is all about poke and countering.
Poke: Saps have the unique opportunity of having a very fast unit that can move 2x in one turn: the Marauder. This is very useful for picking off weak enemy units and then retreating back to the safety of your own army. On larger, open maps with lots of flat ground, this poke style of marauders kind of wins everything, especially because if the marauders are backed by an engineer, they can repair extremely quickly. The best thing is when you can poke down a marine that is standing in front of a helicopter. If you are positioned right, you can sometimes use 3 or 4 marauders and maybe one marine to poke down and kill a whole helicopter. This is one of the most credit-efficient trades you can make.
Countering: Every unit has a counter. For example, marauders are good against batteries since they can get around the defenses and through zones of control to cause damage to them. Marines on mountain/forest are good against helicopters. Tanks are only semi-good, as a front-line unit, usually against other tanks. Marauders are really good at killing engineers too.
I actually have a lower overall score than you right now in Uniwar, but I main Saps and I like to think I'm decent at SvS. If you have a particular replay you want help with, message me in-game and I'd be happy to give you feedback. If nothing else, I can at least give you a different perspective.

I am gonna be completely honest with you.. almost EVERYTHING I know about SvS I learned from this incredibly entertaining and high quality video:

I would be more than happy to play some SvS matches with you. But as a new player the above video gave me a very good understand of Uniwar strategy and SvS strategy in particular. As a result SvS has for a long time been one of my most comfortable matchups. (I don't win 100% of them by any means, but I feel competitive in all of them!)
So, take the time and watch the video if possible and send me an invite any time as well

For all of you fresh meats our there, SvS is basically modern warfare and modern warfare is about maneuverability. Air superiority is a mainly a primary in modern warfare (especiallt for USA), but there are possible ways to get around it, but more likely, stick to aerial superiority or in every Sapien player's case, get into the Marauder war. Besides that, more importantly, modern warfare incorperates combined arms doctorine, which means balancing your arsenal as is said, Sapiens is the most balanced race in Uniwar. Kind regards
