  • Another Amazing Saykoya versus Mastro match. Rhomb uses his Crystal Heart to try to become invincible, but is it enough? Is there anything that can really stop the World Champion even in this casual PvP match?

    That ending reminded me of playing Fire Emblem and putting one of your strongest units to guard a chokepoint and not realizing that they one-round every enemy so the AI just keeps suiciding units into them till your unit dies. That frog pull to deal flat 2 damage to Rhomb and free up a space was brilliant though!
    Bravo to both players for such an exciting game! I wish Rhomb were as good as they are cool lol

      You can totally play me if you want :) I'm going to start a new thing during my streams (Sunday 10am-ish ET) where I give newer players a chance to fight each other, and run commentary pointing out good plays and mistakes, but also just hyping up the match a bit. I really want to feature more new players on my channel. If you want to participate or just watch www.twitch.tv/thesneakydragon1 Also if I can't find enough new players I'll take challenges, so you can challenge me too if you want!

    I would love to be able to play anywhere near that level. Im a big fan of strategy games but alas Im not that good at them. Im a bit slow and too passive most of the time. I feel like Rhomb would have a really devastating push with his groove if you can just find the right supporting units. thanks for posting.

      Hey, thanks for commenting! I wanted you to know that you definitely CAN learn to play at that level, if you want. I'm going to start putting out more learning content, in which I go over games and explain the strategy behind each moves, as well as mistakes made by me and my opponent.
      I also know one player MVAKM, who game onto the scene as a bit of a beginner, spammed games over a month or 2, lost almost every one but learned from them, and became one of the best in the world in a very short time just from losing games and learning. I am scared to ply them these days :D
      But you DONT have to be a pro or top player to love the game and invent new strategies. I invented a ton as a total noob and you can too. I'd love to see if you can formulate a way to play rhomb!

      @@SneakyDragon Thanks for your reply Its very encouraging. From what I have seen it looks like the strength of Rhombs groove is not in his attack but in his ability to be attacked. Rhombs groove allows you to snipe a key unit in an enemy formation then withstand moderate counter attack pressure allowing you to pull some slightly risky moves. I would use Rhomb in combo with three swords, a mage and either some archers or another indirect attacker. The idea is to use Rhombs groove to snipe a key unit in the formation, use sword crits to spread good cheap damage and to block for rhomb so he does not get swarmed. Then on the enemies turn they either have two options engage rhomb or retreat. Rhomb is like the big cheese for your mouse trap. you want to use him like bait to trick your enemy into attacking him because he can take it. when they fail to kill rhomb you drop a heal on your front line and let your indirect attackers mop up the weak or retreating units then push with your healed up front line. Rhomb is more of a defensive commander. Maybe even an aggressive defensive commander. Park Rhomb and his support in a spot where your opponent does not want him and watch your opponent either back off or suicide into your defensive line trying to dislodge Rhomb. At least thats how I would use Rhomb.

    I know I am not a pro player but watching these replays on this speed without proper explanations why certain moves are good or bad makes this commentary miss the mark for me. I guess I have grown accustomed to Deejus style of commentary where he goes through most of the actual decision turn by turn.

    • @SneakyDragon
      @SneakyDragon  Рік тому +2

      Thanks for the feedback! I will be releasing some slower, live-commentary videos soon that will be a bit slower and have more explanation. I am also going to reboot my 'quickplay' series that focuses more on explanation, like I did back in wargroove 1's earlier days.
      The reason this video is so fast is because it is a 'replay' and wargroove 2 does not, sadly, have a way for me to slow it down. I'm going to think about if there is maybe some tool I can use to fix this, as it makes it ratehr difficult for me as well.

      @@SneakyDragon Do we or you have a way to contact the devs on the replay part? I would love to be able to download replays and watch them on my end with pausing like in Starcraft 2 or other games like that. That would also make Wargroove videos not rely live-commentary.
      I like Wargroove 2 a lot and I know it is not your fault that the replay speed is what it is.
      Anyway this is just me thinking out loud. I like your channel overall, but the replay speed is a problem.

      There is! If you go to the official wargroove discord in the #share-feedback channel there is a thread about replays. So far it has just been me and a few others asking, but if you ask here as well it is possible we could get the feature in a future update.
      For now I'll try to upload more live games, as I think you are right this was a bit fast. I like to upload 'hype' commentary videos like this once in a while, but it would be good to be able to pause and explain key turns.
      I think you have convinced me though that my next video will be a game that I was able to commentate live so I can do better explanations. I'll still do replays like this once in a while but I'll try to do more of those as well.

      I'm sorry, but the Rhomb was played poorly at the end, and even if he wasn't he was still 100% going to lose because he took way too long to make his moves and was about to run out of time, which is why he put the Rhomb in a risky spot to begin with. That whole game was played badly, it's clear Number 3 was out of his depths compared to number 1. You can't just reduce that to commanders, because if they were both playing Rhomb, Mastro still would have lost.@@xg.55555

      @TheMidnighttea Рік тому +1

      I think Rhomb has incredible potential if dropping the tier 2 at precisely the right moment. The problem with him is that what he does well (being able to rush down commanders, air units, etc.) is something Koji can already do better with sparrow bombs. Mousey Max needs a buff, but I'm sure really creative plays with him are already possible.

      @@xg.55555 Hey thanks for defending me, but in this case it's kinda true lol, I played worse and slower, mainly I missed the mage on the dragon like a noob, I only looked at the other mage and the witch, plus my understanding of the map was worse than koya's. That said this was a friendly game meant to test relative co powers for the tier list and we were in vc talking and laughing about it. Our result btw (unanimous between me koya and math) was that rhomb barely edges out koji and is placed directly above him because he can threaten critical tactics like the trap I got on his dragon, which had I not blundered my own immediately after would've been a game winning play. As for the lethal at the end I literally had 10s on my clock so the game was mega over and I'm like "I dare you to try to kill my co" and threw him right in his face, so yes rhomb's defense is way worse than we expected, but it shouldn't really ever decide games, in any reasonable position rhomb is still effectively unkillable(I still would have prefered if it did what it said tho, x1.75 def and takes 7 dmg from swords?? I don't think this is how math works. Imo it should've been sth like 15*0.9(from plains)*0.25(Rhomb t2) = 3.375 rounding to 3 dmg).
