The moral of this game: don't get too greedy. You already had the black boat through to the north. You got JTQWN to build several mega tanks in the corner. All you had to do was wait for the airport to start pumping out stealth fighters and it was over.
19:20 My jaw dropped when he says he "contemplated attacking here" even a tier 1 power should have clinched it. That was such a good match, v back and forth, ty for the aw content. It's dry a lot of the time, but when the match is good it's really something special. Congrats semifinalist egg
From playing some live matches, it might be a consequence of that. Live matches encourage offence, while turn based encourage defence (in comparison to one another). So if you play one or another it might throw you a little off from the mode you're in. _Remind yourself that overconfidence is a slow and insidious kill3r_ Great match from both! Always a joy to watch these match analysis!
just want to know, has anyone use lander to transport artillery or rocket to middle island that have 2 cities? That could lock down the base in the middle and lander could use to transport vehicle across river without detour later.
there's a saying in starcraft, "when your ahead, get more ahead", if your up a base, plant your army and force both sides to play defensive while you get up 'another' base, make it so the opponent would have to lose more then you while you get ahead, once your so ahead you can trade and 'still' come out ahead, then you get dirty~
Ooh. JTQWN is a tough opponent. Jess vs Jake is a common matchup. Also, I think spending money to buy bboats or helicopters to cap some island properties is a good move in the long run especially for HF matches.
I don't remember if you mentioned it but Jess is typically banned on T4 here. She is very strong on this map but HF is very volatile with powers. Key is knowing when to push and when to pull. JTQWN was losing but he pulled back and you walked into that punch.
Spoiler below The fact you were so unbelievably close to clinching a win vs. JTQWN is extremely commendable on its own! Seriously good show, even with the blunder at the end it’s just another lesson for the future road 👏
So I been playing advance wars since a kid and I got the reboot when it released and idk why in the world I would think noone else plays this lol. If anybody is still currently playing lets run some games I been waiting for this since I was like 10 yo
Indeed. Both the TTRPG and Bloodlines that really make the setting show are great and seem fitting to JTQWN. Yes, just yesterday I have attended a dance in the VtM/cWoD universe, derived from the Masquerade larp that used to be played around here (Prague).
Deejus's lesson comes to mind here. You never half-ass in AWBW. You either fully commit to it, or you don't do it at all. Retreat? Then completely pull back out of range. Attack? Then pop whatever power you have and go balls to the walls on the enemy.
I followed this match when it was going, but it's nice to have commentaries from you on your own game Last wining move was 300iq, I don't think a lot of players would have thought "scop = move wining game, and it's achievable" at this moment
There is such a massive range of MMR in division 1. You can find players anywhere from low 1100s to 1700s. Its always interesting to test your mettle against players rated way higher than you, and sometimes they will see your rating and not bother to bring their A-game. If you play at your best while they don't, you might even pull off an upset.
Yeah at 20:30 Mangs could have destroyed 2 artilery, have 1 megatank strike a megatank and probably could have capped the lab by gaining enough time. In the end you could have won without doing such a terrible mistake so it's not that JTXBN was better it's just that your worse ennemie got the best of you (yourself), you were overconfident and we know where that lead. Still that was a good match but too much Mangs infantry, also no recons, praise the recons !
My match on this map was a Jess Mirror and it was a lot of careful dancing around the opponent's ranges. I won once I had a chance to secure one of the airports while blocking the other. Round 5 is on a map that is quite interesting; I'm 0-2 on the map thus far but Sensei is legal for this tier. Makes me wonder if I should go Sensei, but the safe pick is probably Hawke.
This map seems like it would be good to use battleships on, no? I know usually they're not worth but the way the water is placed you can fire on a lot of bases. And since it's high fund they're more affordable aren't they ?
While yes, Battleships are more better in high-funds. They wouldn't do much on this map since Battleships can only move on Sea/Reef tiles and harbors, so that little area next to the harbor is the only place it can move. And with it having 2-6 range you can only really zone the opponent out from your single corner base or (and probably the better option) you could use it to take pot shots/ try to funnel your opponent's 2 base force into a pseudo choke point, so your center base can have an easier time defending itself. But overall, it would just be better to use those funds on other units like Mega-tanks or Bombers.
No, they will be limited to that lake area and the opponent can and should avoid it fairly easily. You'll have at least 28K sitting there doing nothing. A Megatank would be far better as it can push with the rest of the army. This is a map where movement COs are better and airports possibly will never get captured, so Megas are much more viable than usual.
Ah damn, I forgot they can't go on shallow water.. That's sad, this map could have some potential for some fun naval play on top of the usual. Oh well, guess ships are doomed to suck lol thanks for the answers guys

Being an Infantry in Mangs' army must be one of the most dangerous jobs
Force drafted. No volunteers. Dying for the cause. That is, Mang's big balls.
EDIT: I fear grammar Nazis
He should play red team.

Hell of a game you played, ggs. Hoping you commentate the JTQWN vs Grimm Guy match that happened recently.
Mangs, Black Boats are 7500. Not 8500.
oops
@@Mangs1337Mangs Maths
7500 for the boat, 1000 for the infantry to cap.
JTQWN is my favorite SCP

Great match from both! Always a joy to watch these match analysis!
The Vampire the Masquerade bloodlines fight music really threw me for a loop there, i did not expect it. I should replay that game.
Every time I see JTQWN play I worry about teaching NHPs how to play human war games.
just want to know, has anyone use lander to transport artillery or rocket to middle island that have 2 cities? That could lock down the base in the middle and lander could use to transport vehicle across river without detour later.

jeez, its all over in that ending, what a slaughter.

Thx mangs. These are great. Love jtqwn as a player. Hail egg god
When i saw that you didn't attack i immidiatly knew what was gonna happen
*SPOILERS*
Respect, Mangs, for uploading a losing match. I was so sure you were going to win since you had him cornered.
En ekte berg-og-dal-bane!
when will you finish your unit overview videos? last one was the BC, would love to know about the others.
Great video while doing PT
I was wondering (900 elo player here so I'm stil learning), isn't missiles (moreover jake missiles) a good answer to megatank on high fund ?
Love the AWBW vids
Someone got complacent.

The Egg is BACK!!!
I didn’t even know Dual Strike was a thing until I saw this video. Are you playing this on PC?
Popcorn time!!!
Wow it came down to 1 turn!
So I been playing advance wars since a kid and I got the reboot when it released and idk why in the world I would think noone else plays this lol. If anybody is still currently playing lets run some games I been waiting for this since I was like 10 yo
One day mangs. One day you will win a tournament. I'm sure you will.
Humpty-dumpty had a great fall.
it turns out, jtqwn did in fact like the music.
JTQWN favorite game is vampire the Masquerade...
That explains alot.
I cannot blame him. Now the sequel......
