[spoiler alert] Hey guys! Spirit of The Elephant here. In this comment I want to thank everyone and especially discord’s bot for this opportunity! SO few things worth to point out in the game from my perspective: - I would never let purple win. Not for what he did to my teammates - I asked green to blow up red instead of purple, because I thought red was the strongest player alive. Back then he had higher score than me and I didn’t know he basically had no eco. - I almost deleted my king in purple’s base. After orange got killed and I thought I was 1v4, you can see on minimap i moved my king next to his base. T90 didn’t spot it. I went back after 10 minutes when I realized no one is attacking me anymore 11 - I wanted to build a wonder, but after purple killed his king in my base, i had around 30 villagers scattered all over the map, no market to get the resources up, I was heavy housed AND I COMPLETELY FORGOT that there is such thing as relic victory 11
Did you see purple was coming over with a king to your base? I thought that if he had detonated behind the castle rather than in front of it, to hide the 'countdown' it could have worked much better
Yeah I watch youtube so I have no clue who he is. But being so salty in a game for fun is a bit sad. Calling community games a joke just because you lost is just petty
This was such a good pilgrims community game, people putting petard in Kryptix’s castle was hilarious! Purple has good diplo and somehow played both sides, although lacked some confidence. Aztec Yellow played superb until the end. I appreciate the effort to try to win wonder victory wise. Such a fun game. Gg wp!
“Digging up a tree for my wife” might the most interesting genuine excuse for not playing a community game. I feel like you should make a record of this. Stats and all that…
I thought I’d just listen to this in the background while I did some chores. I ended up having my phone at almost the entire time and had trouble looking away. Watched the whole game straight! What an absolute masterpiece
almost stopped watching because the salt from Armz in chat after playing poorly was unreal. T90 talked about it a BUNCH of times - they were late to the mainland, wound up in the middle of two teams after everyone had already established and built themselves up, and then expected someone would just magically want to be their friend? in what world is that player landing late not a nuisance to whoever they land near lol. then 20 minutes later they are STILL in chat complaining? unreal entitlement
Spoilers: I honestly loved everyone in this game; purple was my favorite, but even teal and blue did their level best in a bad spot. The diplo was craaazy. It must have been SO hard to keep track of everything. I couldn't keep up and I had full vision and a caster to show me. X-D The worst part is that purple had to go early. I do think he should have stuck with grey and tried 2v1 against yellow since he'd probably beat them anyway, but the ending turned out really cool despite it with grey playing like a total boss. Red was awesome. Green was great. Orange was honorable. Just top tier work from everyone. Super entertaining.
One of the early Aztec missions, where you team up with others and then they turn on you at the end, I realized you could garrison petards in their TCs and instakill them when they turned (why can Aztecs make petards???)
T90 can you please always make a short interview of the winner of community games after the game, so they can tell how they feel, just like in football games. That would be epic :D
I thought greys caravels at the end would have shredded that bunched up group of ships - i’ve always been underwhelmed by that unit. I don’t know if it just doesn’t do as much pass through damage or what but it’s not as strong as the land scorpion
I wonder if people would form deeper alliances if you enabled allied victories. I understand last man standings are fun, but I get curious if players are willing to occasionally trust till the end if given the option. Or maybe it just devolves into constant 3v3 or 4v4 I have no clue, I'm mostly curious to see what happens myself.
Has some one tried micro trade? Like the shortest distance to make one gold so it’s fast? Or is it better to go one long distance? For 140 like is there a distance where travel time of the boat or cart is more efficient to go close a million times then far ten times?
You know what would be funny to do for a community game? Sneak in 2 pro players and see how they do. But the pro players have to fight each other using diplo to influence the other players without telling them who they really are. The winner gets a nice monetary reward. Alternatively don't tell the pro players there is another pro player in the game. Then see who comes out on top.
I still don't get why Cartography was taken out from the game, it made a ton of sense. Of course the trend being making the game easier (and dumber) each time... No Cartography, less wolves, auto scout, auto farm.. I predict the devs are aiming at a game where you only micro military units like a mobile game, sad
The "devs" do not realize that they did not make this game but others did 25 years ago, they should show humility in regards to that great game and keep its spirit alive. (not changing stuff that has never been changed, not adding game altering features etc). Instead it feels like, they try to make AoE2 like the inferior AoE4 because they cannot cope with it.. or they want to keep getting paid by Microsoft, so they keep "shitty-fying" Aoe2 DE while ignoring the real issues: 1) Why are game play mechanics worse than ever? 2) Could we stop adding broken civs and instead nerf down many civs? So they all become fun again to play with? I feel like they made the game so much worse.. and it would be so easy to balance things out a bit.. with their over correction they make it worse and worse, "archers are too strong? Okay lets break them and then everyone will go scouts and knights. etc"
@Lethargie55 Not everyone likes the play the game like you do. Nobody is forcing you to use auto scout or auto farm. Neither are the best option. They're just convenient for players that are learning.
Wahhh my game is changing and I don't like it because change is scary If the game didn't have Carto from the start and they added it 25 years later, you guys would've bitched that they were adding unnecessary complexity to the game Get over it
Teal needed to quit crying so much. It was like watching some spoiled 10 year old complain about things being unfair the whole video. Totally killed the vibe .
Probably not. The streamer can't tell if you are saying awful or really inappropriate things if they don't know the language. Also, just for chat cohesion it's a better experience for everyone to speak the same language, and that's basically always the streamer's language. Bilingual streamers I've seen allow both.
55:56 What do you mean? I didn't sub. I don't even touch Twitch anymore because the ads have gone beyond absurd. Literally putting ads in the middle of a live concert, what kind of disrespect to the viewers is that?
T90 Story time was 10 minutes about music... and only showed teal the entire time.... Red made imperial before gray clicked up... but we just watching teal
Armz, I apologize for my comments, I came in half way through the game.. Hee Hee :) BTW: They are right, you gotta wait until you die first on stream... Love ya though :)
Lol orange was pretty solid, and yellow got oranges revenge no matter the cost if you look at it like they killed his homie so he went to any lengths to get even.
I only watch the community games, and this channel went for an entire tournament without any posted community games. Sometimes you get the content you want, sometimes you don't. You just gotta live with it.

Poetic
Great game 👏👏👏 deserved win

@@ryyvia7234 He researched treason @1:27:21 so suppose he knew. The timing was close tho.
I love that "T90 missed it" screen :'D
Good job Hardy!
The flashing lights really caught me off guard
timestamp?
@@zahin_awosaf Starts at 1:04:15
That's what I always tell my daughter : "don't let boys put petard into your castle".
Petards exploding is always a risk
Man if I had had the resources to sustain my navy I could have held that wonder to a win. RIP my hopes and dreams
That was the best community game in a long time...maybe ever! The diplomacy was out of this world!
Shoutout to the T90 UA-cam and Editing staff, you're doing an amazing job!
Armz crying in chat makes it even more fun
I disagree, because of the whole "spoiling things that the stream hadn't caught up to because stream delay's a thing" thing. Dick move right there.
the salt killed the vibe, thus plus distracted me from T90s beautiful beuatiful handsome voice
Yeah I watch youtube so I have no clue who he is. But being so salty in a game for fun is a bit sad. Calling community games a joke just because you lost is just petty
@@mattiassuijker2839 shutup and take my upvote
shout out to the T90 employees giving us all these nice UA-cam videos
this was the map settings that got me into watching your channel awesome to see it coming full circle!
Pilgrims I feel always leads to very interesting developments of bases in community games
This maybe should have been called: "T90 missed it" lol that was hilarious!
Also, I love this game so much!
That was one hell of a community game
9:35 I played a diplomacy game where someone tries the talk to everyone to say "only to you" and he got called out immediately
1:04:15 That timing was golden!
dang Purp" played 2 and a half hours to die like that" ?😂
Great game! Maximum T90 blind moments, literally even in the middle of the screen he misses stuff. 11
This was such a good pilgrims community game, people putting petard in Kryptix’s castle was hilarious! Purple has good diplo and somehow played both sides, although lacked some confidence. Aztec Yellow played superb until the end. I appreciate the effort to try to win wonder victory wise. Such a fun game. Gg wp!
Incredible Diplo game
“Digging up a tree for my wife” might the most interesting genuine excuse for not playing a community game.
I feel like you should make a record of this. Stats and all that…
Purple was a sneaky champion.
13:34 "blue coffee with a sneaky wonder, that's right, a sneaky wonder"
1:29:57 Purple intertwined with Yellow! How adorable :)
Purple 100% had to have been the Byzantines with his immaculate Diplomacy and his assassinations. He even has the perfect colour for the Byzantines.
I thought I’d just listen to this in the background while I did some chores. I ended up having my phone at almost the entire time and had trouble looking away. Watched the whole game straight! What an absolute masterpiece
Man things went so wrong for that western alliance so quick. Great game from yellow to stay alive though
Instant classic Community game
we want sir explosive hopper in a community game.....rig him in!!!
Great cast
Never ceases to amaze me how people fail to put their king in a building they aren't going to produce army from.
I must agree the thumbnail killed it watching and downloading
❤
I want more elephant’s games
T90 Missed it.. 11 Great edit Hardy!
Superb job as always.
Should be a 20 minute delay. A 3 min old map is still great info. Especially since they can see base location

God that orange player is such a baffoon xD
Green did what Teal couldn't do... Teal, take notes
The end was awesome!
That thumbnail is god-tier. Please add more photoshop swelling in future thumbnails, thank you.
❤
What is unfair is that Baron didn't get a lumber bonus for digging that tree because aparently he is the only one with lumberjack skills here.
Great game, gray. Excellent content T90!
Kryptix getting pettard by allies in his castle 2 games in a row... Third time the charm?
We truly don't deserve Hardy.
1:27:54 Those Poor Berries :(
This was one of the best games ive seen 😊
Why green didn't tried to convert the feitoria ?
One of the early Aztec missions, where you team up with others and then they turn on you at the end, I realized you could garrison petards in their TCs and instakill them when they turned (why can Aztecs make petards???)
Exploding kings on Pilgrims is top-tier AOE
1:01:48.2 to 1:01:59.3 Pogo! 🤣
Awww Feed_The_Ox didn't get seen.
I saw you get it buddy. I'll give you admiration for 5 minutes.
This is not a team game, this is a T90 blind game
Community games ❤
I could use some blue coffee right about now
that was a great game to watch too bad the guy had to leave in the end, wanted to see what would happen. really fun
feel like portuguese would have stomped if he added bbc to his army
T90 can you please always make a short interview of the winner of community games after the game, so they can tell how they feel, just like in football games. That would be epic :D
What a nice win for yellow, incredibly stupid game :D people were way too hasty to get against each other
And to think purple coulda just went afk for 30 mins and won by just gambling on if yellow's gonna keep his word or not. Woulda been epic
I thought greys caravels at the end would have shredded that bunched up group of ships - i’ve always been underwhelmed by that unit. I don’t know if it just doesn’t do as much pass through damage or what but it’s not as strong as the land scorpion
I love community games!
This is so awesome. How to get in that mysterious awesome discord, where you can get in this awesome Community maps?
COMMUNITY GAAAAAAMMMMMESSS!!
Sick game!!
🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 T90 missed it 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨
wow what a game, purple MVP
More backstapping than Games of Thrones
funny how everyone just let purple win and he blows himself up
purple threw so hard :_;
Hey Guys, do you know if exploding kings is supposed to be played at fast speed or normal speed? Thanks
T90 was blind this game! lol
I wonder if people would form deeper alliances if you enabled allied victories. I understand last man standings are fun, but I get curious if players are willing to occasionally trust till the end if given the option. Or maybe it just devolves into constant 3v3 or 4v4 I have no clue, I'm mostly curious to see what happens myself.
You need to delete your king behind enemy buildings so they don't see the animation
Has some one tried micro trade? Like the shortest distance to make one gold so it’s fast? Or is it better to go one long distance? For 140 like is there a distance where travel time of the boat or cart is more efficient to go close a million times then far ten times?

I’d say it’s partly to do with Xbox getting AOEII
They’re trying to rid the advantages pc has over Xbox

If the game didn't have Carto from the start and they added it 25 years later, you guys would've bitched that they were adding unnecessary complexity to the game
Get over it
The subtle changes over the last 8 years have made the game better imo. I hate how they mess with the civs but the gameplay changes have been good
Watch all your videos! ✅ Remember all you videos! ❌
Good game
omg blue :D, Lost 2 vills like that
Wow what agame
we need winners community games they know how win in exploding kings would be epic
This video would've been 40 minutes shorter if T90 would stop being blind and rewinding lol
Love the channel t90
Teal needed to quit crying so much. It was like watching some spoiled 10 year old complain about things being unfair the whole video. Totally killed the vibe .
I remeber that 250 dollar bet t90 Looney does too wanna make it again???
Sure
lel 10 ranked games and most of the campaign just under 800 elo
5:52 Is T90 joking about the english only? i can´t tell if it´s sarcasm
Probably not. The streamer can't tell if you are saying awful or really inappropriate things if they don't know the language.

@@PhyloGenesis I didn´t see it from that POV, he probably is the only streamer I watch that only speaks english... that does makes sense
Do thr mrbeast method and have multiple channels that have someone else doing your casting is another language
dude, I love you but this vid a bit shouty, normally not your style no offence watch you and chill don't want breakneck excitement

Could you do a game where all the players can hear your commentary live?
Blocking the inevitable "first" commenters.

Worst teammates in the world
Lol orange was pretty solid, and yellow got oranges revenge no matter the cost if you look at it like they killed his homie so he went to any lengths to get even.
Can always just play copyright free music.
can we have diplo game with among us style?
I have been waiting for a decent 1v1 for ages. WTF man? pls share some, these crowded games are tiring to watch
Dont watch and search for "1v1 age of empire 2" maybe ? 😂
@@Chicken4687 I watched all his 1v1 videos + Im watching stupit casters now as t90 does not share anymore.
Do you follow the t90 extras channel as well? Lots more content there, like whole tournament sets
Sucks for you, man, I don't watch the 1v1s but I love Commie games 🙃
