This game is magnificent in terms of decision-making. I wrrite a short story, hope you like it. This story is dedicated to four players, namely the Resistance: (ResilientMonk44, BarOn von Beard, WnatSomeMoooork, and GirthaKulaR) THE MAGELLAN GAME Chapter One: Expedition 06:10 - Hera formulates the plan, while the hunt for deer fails. 08:06 - Hera remarks, "Micro & galleys should be a nightmare" (not for Hera). 10:07 - Hera secures the first blood. 13:10 - The Resistance scores their first kill. 18:27 - Hera adds demolition ships to his armada. 19:13 - Invasion of neutral islands. Hera says, "If I get these islands, I'm unshakable." (the real question is, until when?) Chapter Two: Landing TURNING POINT 1, 31:45 - What if trabutecshs go down? Should Hera resign? TURNING POINT 2, 33:00 - Defending at home, fantastic timeplay. Chapter Three: The End 45:46 - Hera loses a transportation ship. 46:22 - For the Resistance, the last onager dies. TURNING POINT 3, 47:20 - Hera says, "I can't even do 10 more minutes." And then, the first gg comes. Hera takes a deep breath. 😄 48:12 - Hera, the honest guy. Hera also mentions his alternative plan, trading cogs, multiple times during the game but never employs it. This fact shows his decision-making is fantastic. My ultimate thanks go again to four players: Thanks to your courage, this game exits.
The best series currently for AoE. May go down to become the best ever in history of AoE too. Hope it keeps continuing. These are the matches we love to see. Wanted to see you somehow win more 1 v 5 and 1 v 6 extreme AI and so on. This series bested that.
Your landings generally went so well, I was waiting for you to at least send a couple of vills over early for treb support, production buildings, and to start moving eco to their islands.
Yeah, he admitted that he thought too much like a 1v1. Every time he deleted vils, he could have sent them on a transport. If they make it, great. If they don't, they were getting deleted instead. Imagine if Red made Elite Caravels and Elite Cannons instead of demos, lol.
bro how did red do NOTHING but make a few demos lol he had bbc, feitorias, hc, organs, scouts and was just SITTING on it all. if he snuck that around and landed it behind your base that would have been pretty significant. It seemed like they were being separate nuisances instead of working together to push your main island. Regardless very fun to watch, thanks for posting!!
That was a fun game to watch. Your quick thinking and strategic moves are amazing. A lot of people like myself would've been all over the place making bad decisions but you nailed it and with a civilization that's not that good at sea.
I want to see this happen too, doesn't even have to be modded because it sounds difficult, they just have to agree not to go over 200 pop with some allowed margin of error.
At 3:12, I assume Hera meant Fernão de Magalhães, who changed his name to Fernando Magallanes when he joined spanish naval services. Most famously, the Strait of Magellan in the southernmost tip of South America is named after him. He also led the first ever voyage around the world, however he didn't survive it.
Huh, interesting, whats in a name... in my USA schools, he was called "Ferdinand Magellan", I assume that in the non-rebellious English-speaking countries it is the same.
You think they're winning, but they think you're winning. It's all about mental persistence. So far, this is the fiercest battle against 4 beginners. Even with a little bit more of teamwork, like saving teammates and flanking, they could've made it work.
I love this concept on so many dimensions. Seems like an interesting practice for yourself to learn how to deal with very odd situations, gives amazing content since your opponents clearly play their personal ‘S-tear final’ and I’m always glad you could find more ways to sustain living as a AOE caster. And hopefully even more then that since you deserve it! I prefer this so much more then the buildorders behind the paywall concept since AOEII in general has to stay vigilant not to become too much pay to win imo. Having said that, I really appreciate how you want to give people the option not to have to pay for it.
googled it, Ferdinand Magellan led the first expedition to circumnavigate the globe. But if his brother Matt travelled the world AND probably also invented the telescope, or something like that, it just feels like inferiority complex to me.
i use to refuse to watch anyone but the viper, but god damn man the content HERA is putting out is so entertaining, his 1v3 1v4 vids r so enjoyable to me god damn. keep it up. i also subbed now
Next time you need to take over an enemy island and use their resources since you're eventually going to run out. Especially since you have to pump out more army against 4 ops.
I was fully expecting some LEL antics from the other players, Grey and Teal were good Yellow and Red were average and didn’t get the best out of their civs ultimately they failed to work together which was their undoing. They key to Islands is dominating water with 4 water civs that should’ve been easy.
I can't believe you kept deleting your vills for no reason and put yourself on such an unnecessary timer. Why didn't you get the wood on Yellow's island right away? All it would take was one transport ship. You almost threw like crazy here.
@Sisstra that is what I heard. Hera is cool and props to him to make $150 an hour playing PC, but I'm not paying that. I'd be down to get my butt kicked for free though 😂
@@jmac115 It's creazy expensive lol. I thought it would be like 50 dollars at best. 150$ is 600 złoty and in Poland it's like.... 20-25% of monthly minimum wage.

33:12 This was the most satisfying demolition job I have seen in UA-cam so far.
Absolutely love these videos. Another good idea would be like you and Viper vs 6-8 beginners. 😂 I would die to see that!!

"I'm going to have to be like Magellan sailing around!" You may want to look into how that ended for him personally.
LOL
People know his name a few hundred years later? To me it sounds like a good deal
I love how strange these games are that Hera actually unlocks new achievements lol

Wild game, that demo on the castle vills was glorious!
A shame we didn't get to see those trade cogs.
bro Hera you are next level, amazing content, love this series!
I swear Hera slowed down towards the end, he could have taken the defeated players islands resources much sooner than he did.
Fatigue is real
I think he was having a lot of fun, can’t blame him the last one was genuinely stressful.
And not deleting 40 vills when he isn't even pop capped

McArthur, WWII. Island hopping the Imperial Japanese.

Banger after banger. GG! Looking forward to seeing Hera + Viper vs 6x 1300+s. That would be an absolute banger as well!
These games are more enjoyable than Hera vs Viper or any other high elo match up.
Love your positive energy Hera, thanks for being you.
Great series. I would love to see you in a T90 Community game
an epic 7vsHera MegaRandom nomad game with exploding kings .. I'd like that :D
33:13 That poor man... nasty
Ah man absolutely loved this one, really felt like it could go either way at many points.
the omg im a terrorrist killed me
Wooow what an absolute game !! That was crazy ! Geat job Hera ! Loved to watch you ! :D
Hera: G....
O they are resigning? Huh.. neat!
They should add custom perbplayer pop caps. Would be nice to see you play with 300 vs 800.
I want to see this happen too, doesn't even have to be modded because it sounds difficult, they just have to agree not to go over 200 pop with some allowed margin of error.
All of these games are great! It is great if Hera wins or if the "beginners" win. So refreshing and different.
“OMG I’m a terrorist” 🤣 bro I’m at the airport laughing at this
Best way to start a Monday morning. Let's gooooo!! Love this series.
awesome game, I really love these 1vX games. When I was CTO for a company back in 2014 I did several 1v7's against my org. So much fun.

@@JakeDanczyk Fernando sounds too mexican, makes sense 11
In my country we use his original portuguese name tho.
44:30 was so funny it made me reach for the mouse & keyboard so I could control the screen.
i love these!!! thinking about getting the boys in for that! :D
27:38 Funny how it took four years until Hera demoships a demoship. 11
Imagine grey still has a monastery, converts a vil and rebooms lol epic
You think they're winning, but they think you're winning. It's all about mental persistence.

really entertaining game of sea and land strats! Probably my favorite video so far of the series 🤠
Would love to see a review by T90!
Yeaah !!! That it ! Make more of this
Thanks hera
Brilliant game, Hera! Love your games so much
11:31 the realisation HAHAHAHA the viking a chad for this
the laughing knowing this guy is screwed anyway OMEGALUL
well played, gg!! fun to watch this one
wow man! what a crazy demo on castle, 20 vills just died, and than, a squat of caphs, hohoho, looks like christimas
Missed opportunity for Hera's opponents to all pick Dravidians lmao

Keep this series up my man !
Self proclaimed big brain moves
Another great video! I look forward to the next.
Great vid, love the series!
best series! 🤩
Another amazing game. Keep the series coming! Boy, the power of feitoria could have gotten you. Your pop was so low and no production at the end.
If red just said gg 5 seconds later, then hera would have call it! Great Game!
Poor teal. Having played in mixed ELO homes I feel him. He must have begging his teammates to contribute anything while he was duking it out with Hera
Hera has got the biggest water bottles XD
googled it, Ferdinand Magellan led the first expedition to circumnavigate the globe.
But if his brother Matt travelled the world AND probably also invented the telescope, or something like that, it just feels like inferiority complex to me.
Hera - You vs Mr. Beast and his whole crew. Make it happen lol
Many thanks for this!!! Lunch hour at work is not gonna be boring today. 🙌
Girthtakular is a phenomenal name
lmfao they are moving like they are trying to fail a breathalyzer test
Cmon Hera, save some for the rest of us!
bro wtf your hair is so fluffy :D
that game was so fun.. sadly you were playing alone, so you couldnt trade, the enemy could have traded all day and finished you off
lol the steam acheivment
one of them shouldve gone with koreans. Turtle ship ambush would go crazy. Turtle ship shield with spanish galleons in the back

Great challenges, it would be interesting against tougher players, but let you have 300 or 400 pop.
Probably a dumb question, but why didn’t he go for farms right away? Seems to me like fishing ships are doomed to get raided in a 1v4
Should be easier than a land map because most people see their skills drop off when it comes to water.
i have no proof, but red is tatoh fan for sure, all those demos mean something 11
Deleting vils at 140 pop when you could transport to yellow was a bit hard to watch
4v1 is basically.. destroy 1 or 2 players early on and the rest will resign.
Keep it up!
It’s like playing a campaign
i learn english with your i am from colombia but i love tatoh and you my favorites player
24:50 did Hera notice that cyan is already imp?
Lets all take a moment to appreciate red's name
I was fully expecting some LEL antics from the other players, Grey and Teal were good Yellow and Red were average and didn’t get the best out of their civs ultimately they failed to work together which was their undoing.
They key to Islands is dominating water with 4 water civs that should’ve been easy.
I love this series
Can anyone tell me why Hera deleted so many vills towards the end, even though he wasn't pressed for pop space?
didnt know about the fish mod
I think I'll pay to do this. Looks like a good time.
Why didn’t u trade with the spanish players docks, he was basically dead but you destroyed the docks instead
Ok but when will the other pros catch on that these vids slap and start uploading their own 3V1 content!
Day 4 of Petitioning for a tierlist of unique units based on their drip!
Whats the point of deleting vils when ur not pop capped, and still tons of res on enemy island?
I was on autopilot, i had to transport earlier for sure
im back to watching aoe
How does Hera queue unit building so fast in so many building all at once?
hotkeys
Love it, close one
Why weren't you making villagers at the end? :O 0 economy and you even deleted vills while you had 60-80 pop space
Yo if you boomed on yellows island
Wanna see vs 6 below 900 elo or 3 above 1100
I can't believe you kept deleting your vills for no reason and put yourself on such an unnecessary timer. Why didn't you get the wood on Yellow's island right away? All it would take was one transport ship. You almost threw like crazy here.
