TaToH the elephant master was so epic! Almost as epic as this legendary co-cast. Great vibes all along, very entertaining. For the records I dont even play AoE2 but T90 casts are something else
Next to last certainly was legendary because of the flaming camels. But the last was so predictable. Just Vinch desperately trying a little Castle Age push with the worse Civ and fails miserably. It was gg at this point already.
Greetings from Turkey. Great Final! Thanks Hera for commentary. Thank you T90 for casting and very big thank to jonslow for this main event, he is gonna make arena great again🎉
Honestly, I don't believe Tatoh would've been able to deal with Khmer without the flaming camels and the 7th was not even supposed to happen. I understand if Vinch felt extremely demoralized in the last game. So basically, a meme unit won the entire tournament for Tatoh, just wow, how often does that happen?! :D. Amazing series and amazing casting as always.
This was the first time I watched you cast tournaments. I'm usually here for the LEL and COM games (I've seen a few pro games). I don't actually play the game myself but now it's good to know what good, consistent play looks like so when I look at the clock for LEL games I can laugh. One day I'll play and get some ranked games in and see just how easy it is to fall into the low ELO category, lol.
amazing set...couple things 1. all of our EPIC elephant chat doesn't show up :( UA-cam, you'll have to go to the VOD to see it. 2. I can't believe Tatoh brought it back! I walked away thinking the game was over, even said GG...came back only to have tatoh pushing back and winning! Insane!
Great final here! Both players played some incredible AOE2 and were deserving finalists for sure. From a casting perspective, I thought the T90 + Hera combo was ELITE! Such great insight from both of you - I definitely approve of any future co-casts! Can't wait for the next tourny!!!
The UA-cam algorithm loves you T90, I have watched this video so many times and it just keeps recommending it to me. Also after watching even a couple videos of anything else it gets back to your videos, its truly odd but if it had to favor some one I feel like you are a great person for it to pick.
What an amazing series, all the games were really close, then you get to the last 2 and.... Well... You get surprised. Can't get over the beautiful flaming camels, amazing stuff, well played by both of them!!! Epic stuff right here!
I'm forever impressed with T90s game knowledge. I enjoy his casting more than most other casters as he seems to always know what players are going for and what they are thinking, which makes for a more engaging cast. That 2nd to last game was sick. Chat was completely wrong predicting a throw there!
Great finals, I feel bad for vinchester as he was having a really good tournament and his pressure in early castle was insanely well played, but Tatoh has shown once again he is a more seassoned vet and got the win! Congrats!
Wth. Im 1100 elo and I know Dravidian ele archers are OP. Ive used them to beat Paladins and imp camels. It's very hard to kill once you've massed. Health regeneration also helps. Once you have longsword meatshield, it's a proper death ball.
Slight spoiler. --> I'm really sad they didn't notice that vinch had 1 barracks left in Tatohs base in game 5. It was producing pikes and sending them through Tatohs base, through the battlefield, and over to vinch's rally point (or... at least tried to... One of them almost made it once). Then, later you started seeing lots of blinking in Tatohs base, like 3-4-5 different fights going on. But the casters didn't notice : ( When T90 finally looked at Tatohs base it was the moment the barracks got destroyed, and the small war was over : (
It feels like players after seeing this tournament and seeing Hidden Cup V's mass monk micro, will be practicing their monk micro in their practice sessions. Specifically for the late game, where there are a ton of powerful units with a weakness to defensive 🛡 monks. The tricks to mass convert enemy units with monks seem very important to sneak in a win for games which would otherwise be losses.
Those Flaming Camemels were a true masterpiece. Congrats to the winner and the runner-up, a very entertaining Grand Final. And great casting, as usual!
Amazing casting and such great AOE fames to watch. Vinche played solid but Tatoh, you are next level man. keep doing what you're doing and enjoy thet sweet victory eell earned no doubt.
Such an amazing final Tatoh I feel was the real mvp wether or not he won, the mental he had to go through to bring it back was amazing. Honestly happy for him & soz to vinch :/
Ah flaming camels. I was playing a Land Nomad FFA and a player who has 300-400 elo higher than me had full spam of battle elephants, an army that was normally impossible to stop. As Tatars I massed falming camels and wrecked hundreds of battle elephants from a much better player than me, it was very satisfying and led to him resigning.
A little late to the party, but one mod suggestion I have is changing the civ every time a player gets to a new age. A community game with this mechanic would be fun to see.
Fantastic finals by both Vinchester and Tatoh. It was great to see the back and forth, each game was worth watching and different strategies. The Flaming camels in second last game was lovely. Great cast by T90 and Hera. Gg wp!
Instead of Koreans getting an archer and infantry wood discount, I would’ve really liked them to get a tower build time reduction- like they build towers 10 to 20% faster. I don’t want them to lose their identity as a tower civ
Tip for CBA players: Flaming Camels can be made if you are Tatars, and yes, they are very OP (even against non-cav units since you can make so many of them).
what possible reason could tatoh have in game 3 to not go hussar? Even 20 hussar as soon as he hit imp woulda put him massively ahead, i just cant understand how t90 or hera didnt bring it up so theres gotta be something im missing because its painfully the best option.
Thanks for having me on for the cast! Epic Finals
I have been waiting to watch, hoping to find one you are casting Hera, thanks. And T90, appreciate the upload.
Loved the co cast Hera!
Thank you Hera! ❤
loved it hera!
Great cast Hera 👍🏼
TaToH the elephant master was so epic! Almost as epic as this legendary co-cast. Great vibes all along, very entertaining. For the records I dont even play AoE2 but T90 casts are something else
Those last two games are some of the most legendary tourney games I've every seen.
J
Next to last certainly was legendary because of the flaming camels. But the last was so predictable. Just Vinch desperately trying a little Castle Age push with the worse Civ and fails miserably. It was gg at this point already.
Love the cast with Hera! He is able to give additional insights!
what a series! thank you T90 and Hera for the co-casting.
Greetings from Turkey. Great Final!
Thanks Hera for commentary. Thank you T90 for casting and very big thank to jonslow for this main event, he is gonna make arena great again🎉
Pog hera and t90 casting together 😍
Winning down 3 - 1 just EPIC very great flaming camel and dravidian elephant play def don't see those everyday congrats Tatoh!
siege pike? no, get ready for siege FLAMING CAMEL
Congratulations on spoilng it for everyone!
@@kaybee9363 Just don't read the comments before finishing the video, Idk what the problem is

Tatoh almost won against turks. Overall it felt he has better micro and macro. Anyhow great games for Vincher
I think I have missed a moment, when flaming camels stopped being just a meme unit. But I also think that that's a good thing!

i love how the older this game becomes, the more advanced the strats become, STILL 😂
(Obviously spoilers if you click the timestamp)
2:05:10 Vinch does in fact get housed from the converted houses getting trebbed down!
@ 1:29:40 - That is exactly what happens! I like blocking the gates with houses and they literally have 7 pikemen frantically poking at them.
Hope to see more of Arena matches, I watched every single game played through this MOA.

Really enjoyed this tourney. I was rooting for vinch and tatoh through their other sets. Finished off with a great final! Thanks for casting guys
Hera is fearless in game AND working in a three archery range reference for T90 11

Tatoh is just an incredible player

those last two matches had me glued to the screen, awesome strats to see
Great casting! The Korean match makes me a little sad, they need some useful towers back, would war wagons work there idk
Flaming Camels -> 2:48:44

amazing series by Tatoh! he's been my favorite player for a while, amazing to see him win this
3:19:08 wasn't the plus 2 line of sight on the crossbows changed recently? or did this happen before thee new patch?
Tournaments normally play a patch or two back for meta and stability reasons.
Don’t get me wrong I love Dave, but Hera is hell of a caster. It’s interesting to hear how a top tier player thinks of strategies and thought process
Those Flaming Camemels were a true masterpiece.
Congrats to the winner and the runner-up, a very entertaining Grand Final.
And great casting, as usual!
Great final. Ty for casting!
Loved the casting! Great final!Thanks for the upload! ❤
Those flaming camels mentally broke Vinchester. He just wasn't there in that last game.
1:33:40 Well, that was a quick reaction to the siege tower, crazy. I love it! :)
Maybe for the masters of series, variants of the same map could be fun: one match on the og arena could be acceptable when it's one of 7
Finally get to see the flaming camels! Soo cool
Amazing casting and such great AOE fames to watch. Vinche played solid but Tatoh, you are next level man. keep doing what you're doing and enjoy thet sweet victory eell earned no doubt.
I love the Hera casts. Almost as much as Dave.
Are there any tri casts with these three legends out there?
Such an amazing final Tatoh I feel was the real mvp wether or not he won, the mental he had to go through to bring it back was amazing. Honestly happy for him & soz to vinch :/
props to vinche for playing so good
You two host are amazing too, always keeping comments interesting
amazing cast! well done to both of you and Congrats Tatoh
Fantastic content, really enjoyed the commentary and thank you so much for not spoiling the outcome in the title! Really appreciate it 👍
Amazing t90 and Hera!
I would like to download this game. Is Steam the best platform? And is it AOE2 : Definitive Edition I need?
Yes
I never thought I'd see Flaming Camels used in a serious game, my god.
1:51:40 that is a suppper good idea i'd love a more hardcore version of age of empires
Amazing work from both players!
“1000 res that tatoh just wasted in broad daylight” -Hera 😂😂😂 the way he said it killed me
Ah flaming camels. I was playing a Land Nomad FFA and a player who has 300-400 elo higher than me had full spam of battle elephants, an army that was normally impossible to stop. As Tatars I massed falming camels and wrecked hundreds of battle elephants from a much better player than me, it was very satisfying and led to him resigning.
MORE HERA CASTS! Love it!
I miss HOANG. He was my favorite player. Let’s get that “bring back HOANG” patch.
Yeah, like celts needed a nerf from one guy doing well with them, lol.
I wish imperial skirmisher was better so we’d see it more. It’s such a cool unit model.
A little late to the party, but one mod suggestion I have is changing the civ every time a player gets to a new age. A community game with this mechanic would be fun to see.
Coming back to this cause game 6 was my favorite aoe2 game from 2023
Great games and coverage all tourney as always by T90. Absolutely love this casting duo.
Mastadiss by Hera at 1:52:00
The last two games were next lever
Fantastic finals by both Vinchester and Tatoh. It was great to see the back and forth, each game was worth watching and different strategies. The Flaming camels in second last game was lovely. Great cast by T90 and Hera. Gg wp!
Nice Tatoh, watched your quarters and semi, but 3-1 down to Vinch had me worried. GG
I want the chemistry between Dave and t90
Great series! loved seeing the flaming camels
great casting duo! thanks everyone
Emire Tamerlane actually used flaming camels against Indian elephant troops.
GG and Well Played to both Tatoh and Vinch! This was such a good final
Instead of Koreans getting an archer and infantry wood discount, I would’ve really liked them to get a tower build time reduction- like they build towers 10 to 20% faster. I don’t want them to lose their identity as a tower civ
These two have great chemistry. This was some of my favorite casting from T90. Great job! :)
Its taken me a week after to work to watch the whole series.
These final games were amazing
Loved the cast T90, Hera made a good guest too.
Is this AOE2 DEF edition?
Great casting and the best series of the tourney.
Absolutely hope arena tournament will have greater prize pool! Such a fantastic refresher from the standard format, just like wololo❤
WTF those insta convertions from vinch haha
Magyars is really a fun pick🤣🤣🤣
please take the habit to credit the co-caster if not in the title, at least in the description
Tip for CBA players: Flaming Camels can be made if you are Tatars, and yes, they are very OP (even against non-cav units since you can make so many of them).
hey t90, it'd be cool if you could include who is cocasting with you in the description of the vid so we can avoid potential spoilers in the comments.
Cant wait for new maps
Small ask: can you put your co-caster in the description? I'm lucky that Hera posted or I wouldn't have known who that was lol
really wanted vinch to win
Wow nice
what possible reason could tatoh have in game 3 to not go hussar? Even 20 hussar as soon as he hit imp woulda put him massively ahead, i just cant understand how t90 or hera didnt bring it up so theres gotta be something im missing because its painfully the best option.
2:47:00
THat is wrong.
*edit
He corrected it later.
When's the next Hidden Cup?
Tatoh, Master of Elephants
Flaming camels on elephants. just too satifying to see!
Can't believe TaToH came back and won 3 straight being down 3-1! Great games! Spoilers by the way!
Thanks for the excellent coverage T90!
Awesome games, great casting.
Damnnnn
lets go
TaToh!
GG Tatoh
What, first? Siiick
SEND FORTH THE FLAMING CAMELS!
When is the next tournament?
These are addictive!
hera amazing co-caster
