YESSS finally, man these 800 ELO 'low elo legends' are barely low elo anymore, gosh they know the techtree better than me! I've been waiting for some true LEL action!!!!
yeah I keep getting 13 mins castle drop, 10 mins scout rush at 800 elo in the rank, even laming and archer mircoing are not rare anymore, “low” elo my ass
This makes me remember the old days when you had no idea how things work. I appreciate that these guys just explore a game on their own and don't google the best ways to play. Very retro!
I believe we have others types of low-elo, people with only one hand (or no hands), or some mentality disability. They can play with people of their levels.
I started watching T90 because I needed to burn some time, he became great background noise, but low elo legends held my attention and made me want to play. I've got like less than 15 games but I'm winning at about 700 elo because of all the knowledge I've gotten watching this series lol. I never cut straggler trees never trickle treb and I get techs and i do okay lol
With all the noobs that get suckered into researching Heated Shot, I'm beginning to think it should just have a bonus that is actually generally applicable, even if very small. Something like giving your castle/tower fire +1 bonus damage vs. Siege. After all, isn't the logic that you're attacking something wooden, so heating the shot can help set it on fire? Well, Siege is made of wood, so you could reason it might help there, too.
Sometimes I think about finally trying MP in AoE2, and I actually hope that if I do, I'll be low ELO so I can actually have fun with weird builds and trying to keep my towns pretty instead of the rush and anxiety of crazy games.
I love LEL it's my favourite series of yours as I'm not good at the game at all. Last played online in 2004 or so and have played against AI off and on over the years since but just kind of lost interest. Discovered your videos a couple years ago and been enjoying watching and just picked DE up two nights ago on sale for like 7$ US on steam. Need to do some studying to get better but still nice to know even us unskilled players can still have fun online. Maybe I'll jump into the online play after reacquainting myself with the game.
I am a 80 year old father, probably one of the oldest people watching this channel. I am a single father to my son, who is now 14. My son recently started watching T90 and in less than a week, he had already watched for over 20 hours. This was terrible for me, as it was already hard enough for me to spend time with my son, as he is always out with his friends or just watching videos on Tiktok. So I decided to make a youtube account and subscribe to this channel to see if I could maybe watch alongside him. I loaded into the youtube, watched a tutorial but I was stuck on what you where supposed to do. I asked my Son for help and he loaded a video for me to watch. I loved it as it was the best time I had spent with my Son since my wife had died. This youtube channel has ever since brought my son and I closer again and now we actually spend time together outside the house as well. This video reminded me that there's fun to be had in everything, and it has brought both me and my Son many happy memories, like the petards blowing up the wall and blue's walling techniques.
Good that u enabled the big trees - it adds into that low elo strategy :D Back in days i used to sneak vills between trees and best spot for tower rush was behind big treeline bcs those was almost taller that tower itself :D
Re: 44:25 Hell yeah I made it! My momma's PROUD. My sister's PROUD. And I'm so PROUD of me for watching this low-elo game all the way. p.s. Troll strat: No blacksmith upgrades until 1:09 like oozhover. And other things like No eco upgrades until the age after. Have to build some amount of every type of unit. Have to lose some amount of units in the corners of the maps. Have to have more idle T.C. time than the opponent. etc.
I literally added this to my watch later playlist because it was the funniest T90 cast ever. Loved this game. The comment section is so underrated too.
36:05 I think it is an anti-ram strat. When you put one wall right behind another, the ram could damage both, so space it out. Also spacing out gates for redundant walls makes it so an enemy unit is less likely to slip through. Edit: Nevermind, it's just a choke point like you were guessing.
I've mostly only played against the computer and I'll usually build maze/tunnels like that for the computer to walk through. Or leave a strategic gap in my wall for them to march to their deaths. Works like a charm
It was nice. I think red lack of reactiveness, aggressiveness and micro hurt their game a ton. When the first scout revealed a ton Red barely used all that information. Then they kept sending scouts in a single direction and it wasn't until half a dozen died (I mean maybe less but stil) that they stopped. Then when the first petards opened a hole they didn't send their cavalry to do anything about it, yet they sent a villager that could have died before filling it if Blue decided to. When the villager filled the hole Red didn't send her back but left her there to be killed. When their castle was attacked by trebs they took a long time to react and when they did they killed Blue's trebs with the cavaliers and were in a fight they could win without issues, but decided to run back to their base because skirmishers are scary for britons (not for briton cavaliers though). Then they took all their cavaliers to a fight they could control due to teuton knights being extra slow and lost them all. They also had villagers in an unexpected spot for Blue and decided to use them to build houses. Overall, I think Red built a lot of cavalry that they could have used in many different ways and didn't use it at all until he was being attacked. Their cavalry archers were completely wasted too. Red's military production was nice, but didn't use it. Blue military production was all over the place, but they did use it. I was kinda rooting for Red but I also was expecting them to mess up on the military side of things, because I have also messed that up before. Not THAT badly though.
I've made to this point (44:26), taking some mad notes..... Such as, "Cav archer are a feasible long term solutions for taking down stone walls..." This is a great Low Elo Legends, thanks for the upload T90!!!
I’m 1200 elo and I occasionally don’t set a gather point if I’m booming and my starting tc isn’t near res so I can just make farms right when they are made
Lots of LEL games have a bit of pain that goes with them because I'm yelling at the screen to do some basic thing, or take advantage of some obvious opportunity, but this one is low enough that it's purely a pleasure to watch the more inexplicable actions of each player.
It surprises me that it's even possible to have Elo this low. You need to play enough games for your Elo to drop, but not learn enough in all of those games to settle on an Elo above 300. Honestly, these players don't look that bad (they're not _good_ but they don't look like they're 700 Elo points behind me).
I got AoE2 recently because I remember playing it a lot a long time ago and it is so much fun! I may start playing ranked soon too and maybe imma end up as a low elo in your videos xD. Your commentary made this very entertaining to watch the video was great!
As the cavalry archers whittle down the wall. Long time no siege. Also, throwback to AoE 1 - where they hid the tower and wall upgrades in the granary!
Growing up with the AoE titles, it genuinely was weird to me when AoE 4 didn’t have food decay. I like it now, but it’s a nuisance I think can get overlooked for sure.
This is last LEL that i need to catch up to,i wonder when "the legend of" series will return,i miss seeing people like fatslob or the guy who played sea gold map,took all relics and starved opponent out :) Edit:// At 44:20 my mother being proud of me? That would be a miracle,bro
I like how the game is so slow for you that you look into the details of the buildings and make up stories, just for the sake of entretain your audience! XD

@@kazimirferos7863 cut straggler trees... otherwise they may block farm space around TC.

The classic 36 vil slow imp into back castle strat. Nice
Mine was "I don't understand bonus damage so I just make champions and hope for the best
I perfer the ''whatever vills I have'' into ''whatever units I think would work'' start
Still beats the "create new villagers only on demand, when I suddenly find I don't have a resource for a building or upgrade I want" strategy.
Mine is the "Imp into GG". Works best with Byzantine
I have used the maze strat in campaign games. It makes some levels extremely easy when the AI runs their army through.
Exactly it's a time honored tactic.
i've always wondered the viability of this but i've never tried it out. lol might have to give that a go at some point. AOE: Tower Defense

It's very fun that you cast these, it's refreshing to see the chaos of a less sweaty game :)
You forgot to notice that blue didn't know how to make gates and cause of that his walls are weird XD
Wow, you're right, blue actually doesn't have a single gate. 😮 But he sees red's gates, so he has to realize they exist. 🙂
he didnt watch tutorial on gates yet @@eriqborg

What a crazy and frustratingly fun game. and T90 at his best. LEL is just so fun. Plus big trees to top it off YAY!😎
Just as you start talking about LEL technologies... here comes Heated Shot! Classic
Imagine how many arrows are laying by that wall
The arrows are not there to shoot the wall down. They pile gets used to climb over the wall.
@@lurkingone7079 big brain strats that’s what this video should be called

I'm glad we got to see the rogue tuetonic knight meet his end very satisfying
Exploration points are crucial to demoralizing the opponent. It’s like Genghis Khan army lighting 5 campfires per soldier
Cool strategy. I usually drop outposts everywhere if in some phase of game i have no idea what to do :D
Typically a stolen bell would be turned into a cannon. They were typically made of brass.
those cav archers attacking the wall for thirty minutes was something else
This was such a perfectly times episode. Im trying to go to bed early tonight and an hour of t90 casting this lvl is a godsend 11
About halfway through this video I forgot that this was Arabia.
I assure you, my mother has no pride in me watching this at 10am when I haven't slept at all

Made it. Dedicated. Left work an hour early to watch this before my after work obligations. Mom wouldn’t be proud.
True story, my mom played AOE more than I did back in the early 2000s. But she hated fighting so she would always go for a relic or wonder victory.
2 Militia to defensively fence off enemies in Dark Age. That is clearly a Double-D-Fence

58:50 That would be interesting if destroyed buildings could be scavenged by villagers for x amount of resources back within x amount of time etc
I have to admit, I never thought of using cavalry archers to take out stone walls. I don't believe I'll ever use that strategy, either.
I used to not know about micro with archers either; I didn't realize that they could actually dodge shots. So I just threw them in and let them die.
44:22 Mom I made it!
Now THIS is a petarded strategy!
This was actually such a good game. I used to play like blue before I learned build orders. Glad these people stick with ranked

tower on the hill to protect your town. Blue definitely played Willam Wallace campaign!
Such an entertaining match, the guy I was rooting for won yay 🎉
14:22 such a good moonwalk 🤤
The real question is, what is red doing this whole time? Is he working on his taxes?
this was such a fantastic game.
10:30 he likes his T90 farms so much he started playing a whole other game to do exclusively that 😭
Laughed my ass off when you nitpicked the window views on the house! Good Bud?

that thing in the window is a window shade. some type of leather or cloth drapery.
I think this is the first time in decades I've seen fortified walls outside of campaign missions
The one time I actually watch a video instead of fall asleep to it and it's a stand off, still an entertaining on tho
I've come to find that watching your videos is more satisfying than playing the game itself and that's speaks volumes. I made it by the way 👍

That wall should just be replaced with a pile of arrows that is just as big.
Yes, I made it to. Some day, if I have the time, I hope to become a low ELO player too! I'm really bad at this game...
