It was an amazing final! Loved the different maps in this tourney, so it is not always the same build order, same strategies... and Dave is always welcome! You 2 casting together is another level!
I'll probably be Downing an entire pizza and relaxing properly while watching this video Cheers to everybody else doing the same and cheers to the hosts
@@samuelbrown917 I looked up my heritage.. My father's family basically ruled Lancashire in the 1430s and my mother's family well known in Scotland so sure we'll go with that.. That was like 700 years ago but today I'm pure hillbilly Columbus OH
Yo just confirmed in his stream that he got the visa to go to Germany, so yes, we get to see him in Heidelberg. Though he had to fly to Italy first then travel by land, he's still gonna make it for sure.

In the last game you could not build on the middle sand area, so Running started to wall off Yo. But there is one question I have: Why did he wall on Yo's side of the sand area? Would it not have been easier to wall of the 1-2 tiles of space on his side of the sand area? Since Yo would not have been able to build on the sand himself either that should have had the same effect as walling off Yo on Yo's side. But it should have been easier doing it on your own side than on the opponent's side. Or do I miss something there?
@@IndexInvestingWithCole Yo's archers are ineffective if Running already has skirms there. The skirms don't work if Yo has scouts. Then Running would have needed to have some spears as well. And so on :D
I've been watching for around 2 years now and I'd never heard of running. He's now in my top 3. Darknoob and capoch are still my fav players. And Jordan haha
I love how you finally seem to acknowledge the brilliance of Mr. Yo although it’s not fair at all to blame us the viewers for being the ones not having done that before. In fact, I don’t believe Tristan would dare to insinuate sheer luck (e.g. 1:53:50 “his archers in the towers are going to be more helpful then he maybe thinks at the moment”) and stupidity (e.g. 1:12:30 “because maybe this could be the one map where he doesn’t pay attention to the meta much and understand…uhm…”) when western top players like Viper, Leery, Hera, Tatoh, Jordan… engage. I’m glad you reaffirm what you said first near the end of the stream, although I hope you’ll start acknowledging that yourself in future games as well. Apart from Viper, I don’t know much top players who are actually that consistent and thought out as Yo is. Having said that, I’m still a big fan of both of your casting. I love the revibe of the game and how you both contributed to that. I for one am most pleased about the international and intercultural interest in AOE2 since alternative frames of thinking can only help exploit the infinite competitive strategies of this hugely creative game. Hence the reason why I did want to share you my feedback despite enjoying the content very much already.
I have to say this tournament was very interesting with very nice and different games!!!!! The map pool was very nice and I hope that there will be sth similar also in the future! Also this game was very good!!!! Nice final!!!
Make sure to get the Definitive Edition on Steam if you do end up buying it. I've been very happy with all the quality of life changes in the past years.
i dont like it when people surrender so fast like running does. i mean yes ur behind but come on give it a try man. like tatoh did in the semis. thats so weird to me to tap out instantly with no fight at all. >.
In this case they will be playing a lot of games so I can understand not wanting to waste time on a game that you'll lose. If you are playing regular multiplayer it sucks when someone surrenders after losing two vills especially if it's your teammate.
Only T90 can be a top 100 player and thr number 1 caster, and wonder aloud multiple times in a game how various cav archers units will fare against Camel archers. The UU who's explicitly stated purpose is to counter cav archers.
Thanks for the cast! I know that the two of you are super excited to talk about AoE, but I do wish you two wouldn't talk over each other so much. It makes it sound like you aren't paying attention to what the other is saying, or that you don't care or something like that.
I have a bad feeling that Yo is a Gambler and bets most of his games or something. Because he playes so weird sometimes which simply doesn't add up. Also seeing lot of esport betting stuff around in other games wouldn't be surprised that there is a market for it in Aoe. Ofcourse I'm speculating.
He doesn't, he streams though, so sometimes stream chat might affect him. Although if you've seen Yo long enough, you will know that he has the tendency to play "weird" and not stick to meta.
Yo has always been known as a great strategist. He tends to prepare a strat that is often off-meta, so if it doesn't work he might look dumb, but if it works he is just like a god that manipulates the whole game.
It's not so much that Dave is bad, it's that T90 is just too good on his own. If T90 has another caster it should be literally someone who is good at color and cracking jokes
I love it when you and Dave cast together.
I love the combo too!!!
Just came to comment section to comment this haha
Every game you posted from this tournament was a banger, incredible stuff.

Pizza is royalty food. Depending on where it's from for sure.
@@samuelbrown917 lol I can afford it once a month... I'm a fan of Domino's. I know boring but
A fellow minimalist? My good sir I believe pizza is basically savory things on top of a bagel.
"Yo is a wizard at losing monks" best comment of the whole cast. Great jobs casting guys!
Yo just confirmed in his stream that he got the visa to go to Germany, so yes, we get to see him in Heidelberg.

where can i find his streams?
@@maisondav1d He streams on a Chinese site called Douyu, and he doesn't really save his stream. Another guy usually upload his stream onto another Chinese site called Bilibili...
Man you and Dave together are the best in the business

But it should have been easier doing it on your own side than on the opponent's side.
Or do I miss something there?
Just to gain some time I think, if pushed he can always rewall or react and sometimes a few seconds are all you need
He cant wall behind if Yo brings archers
@@IndexInvestingWithCole Yo's archers are ineffective if Running already has skirms there.
The skirms don't work if Yo has scouts.
Then Running would have needed to have some spears as well.
And so on :D
That last map is wild. Three fronts and you can't hide at all. Great finale.
I've been watching for around 2 years now and I'd never heard of running. He's now in my top 3. Darknoob and capoch are still my fav players. And Jordan haha
Running played closed maps more in the past, though he stated playing more open ones now.
gg Running, really liked your matches (loved the Tatoh matches) ! Congratz Yo!

Congrats Yo!
Great casting T90 and dave 🌹
I was thinking the last two were quarter finals for some reason, so I was quite surprised seeing the finals already!
I have to say this tournament was very interesting with very nice and different games!!!!! The map pool was very nice and I hope that there will be sth similar also in the future! Also this game was very good!!!! Nice final!!!
At 3-2 for Yo, why didn't he build a castle vs the mangonel push?
is it worth buying this game again or not? I'm in the mood for something competitive please somebody react to this i really want to know it
Uhh yeah buy the game
absolutely. It really never gets old, cant get tired of it
Make sure to get the Definitive Edition on Steam if you do end up buying it. I've been very happy with all the quality of life changes in the past years.
@@iamUglie it's sad that nobody (from my friends list on steam) has this game
its on gamepass, so try that first
Question for T90- Does wootz steel ignore the anti cavalry armor of the cataphract?
Awesome game! Congrats to the winner!! Very enge!
I il ils se 😅i😅ii😅i😅I
Iiioi
Iiio
Thanks for the cast!
One of my favorite matchups yet!
What an awesome end to a great tournament!
does anyone have a source on how to do the 21 pop fast castle?
T90 and Dave is such a great casting combo, please don't go so long without a Dave co-cast
What are prizes for this? Great watch
Live that casting duo
Yesterdave ?
I’m seriously now subscribed
That running resign on 5th game was too fast and it could end up better for him.
I feel like I've never seen a game where a player that picked Dravidians won
i love those maps!
There is one elephant unit that beats my everytime and that is ballista elephants. They say I need to use monks, but they are so unwieldy.
Last game was hilarious
Congratz to Running, great games great tournament
bro.
Wait... There was arena without that stupid walls in the back? I want it! :D
We want to see BABY ELEPHANT ARCHER which are much faster but with less HP. Its going to be cute and tough at the same time.
I’m seriously about to watch a 2 1/2 hour video at midnight.
Epic bill fight????!?! Nawww back to work lol gotta go feudal and such
Yo's vil count at the end of the last game!
What is this tourney? Clown Cup but from wish? Lol
That Gchat notification had me looking through all my tabs
Merci!
I think Tristan is stuck in the cold war era with this fixation on Red VS Blue
*T90!!!*
Nice

god dammit, the google message notification had me pause the video to check my messages XD
what a way to endge it
They fought to the very enge!
Crying for the elephants.
Oh the mental illness jokes really get me.
So some people have an extra lever...lol
game 3 analysis: elephants are trash haahah
They are rly useless and inferior to knights 9 times out of 10.

Excuse me but the word "IDLE" was too long so you shortened it to "IDL" seriously ?
hill i will die on: monks need a nerf lmao. i mean this shit in game 1 is so disgusting that i feel offended. *pukes*

Too slow I watched it on Dave's channel already 11
I don’t like dave
I am neutral to dave
Nah Dave is 1111
i like dave
It's not so much that Dave is bad, it's that T90 is just too good on his own. If T90 has another caster it should be literally someone who is good at color and cracking jokes
dave is my father
