I think a problem that was not talked about here is that red tought of the gbetos as archers, which is why he kept making skirmishers and that is something I've noticed a lot of people get confused with: "If it attacks from a distance, it is countered with skirmishers", same thing happens with ballista elephants in many games, they're not classified as "archers".
around 7:00 in and I just want to say how much I appreciate the drama and story telling that you bring to every time someone brings in an even remotely sketchy boar/elephant.
Haha I’m democracy manifest. I’m glad someone knows the go. And yes, I am Australian … feels weird as being cast by T90 but hope you all enjoyed the game
Thank you for your passion towards the game and your great insights. I truly enjoy how , even as a high level player, you know how to appreciate the effort and good play from games of all ELOs. Keep it up man, respect.
you are the best aoe2 caster. at any, every, elo you have a great mix of constructive criticism but also praise and hype for the game and the players. mad respect
Love the little post game analysis. Gives me great insight into what to do for myself when I encounter similar scenarios. Please continue doing that and thanks for the great content as always!
I play Bulgarians often, my favourite civ currently and I always build a castle FIRST, and then Krepost, because imo thr e 33% cav attack is high castle age priority. It's always tempting to make a krepost first because of speed and cost, but almost never worth it because you already can have strong army without the tech, so you're not missing out on units.
I'm really late to the AoE party as far as AoE2, whatever I did play of 2 back in the day I dont remember. but I played AoE1 to death and was playing the original game a few months ago. I knew the new versions existed but wasnt running Win10 and years went by as I stubbornly stuck with 8.1. But that's another story. So for reasons I finally got Win10 and the remake of the original game and played through that. After some getting used to I was addicted again. So fast forward to 3 days ago and I finish the playthrough of AoE1 campaigns and check out number 2, and as if it was meant to be, it was on sale for $6. I've been playing through the campaigns and again I'm thoroughly addicted. I had started watching your videos before I got the game as they popped up when I was looking for help with 1. I enjoy your content and after I get used to all the new units and civs in 2, I might start playing ranked matches myself. You seem to be the go-to guy for AoE2 content.
I've played hundreds of Full Random civ team games. I get Celts, Dravidians, and Hindustanis 50% of the time. About 3/4 of the civs I've never played with.
Don't understand why Red kept feeding Light Cav to Blue. He achieved absolutely nothing, yet kept producing Light Cav. Bulgarians have such a strong unique unit and infantry, and the kreposts are so good.
@@solorollo9756 I try to win in castle age or feudal but if I dont I know my chances go way down. I have basically two strategies, militia rush that never stops or fast castle and samurai with rams. Usually I lose if i dont get the castle up because I tend to castle drop them on their gold. I have done a ton of Dout castles. Usually that buys them time to go into imp. l also lose when my militia rush into their tc and they eventually go into castle age while i am still in fuedal. lol.
Building in tjhe corner seems popular but I've grown to realize it's a mistake. Even though it's a nomad variant, you can wall people up in the corner and then have the entire map of fish for yourself!
Good one... Idk how can anybody dislike this map... Its like arabia style nomad with lots of wood :D also, where are these guys when i play? 30 minutes in game with 10 army and 0 upgrades on it - maan like 6 upgraded crossbows would end the game.
I think you should keep everything below 1k elo as Low elo legends. I've never played online (it's scary) but I feel I could put up a good fight against players of this level. Plus, you see some mistakes you don't see in higher elo, like floating resources
Played amazon tunnel 2v2v2v2 recently and got 6vs2ed with romans and still won... I held against the Mongol player with his partner all alone and he had the same score as us while my teammate pushed blue and gray and i was having to support my teammate as well as push back the mongol team endlessly spamming mangudai and SO to the point he finally rage quit 111111
I'm a fan of T90, but I'm not going to pay for a subscription to his Dischord server. I'm not a total newb, but I'm having a hard time getting better at AoE2. I tried posting on Steam and Reddit for advice, but I didn't see a dedicated AoE2 forum. Is there a free AoE2 forum somewhere where I can post for advice and such? I have no idea what to do for a build order. I'm only playing against the computer, and I can beat 2 AI's on Moderate maybe half the time. I'd like to get good enough to play ranked games, but I definitely need a coherent build order to do that. Thanks. Steve
@@krystofcisar469 Thanks. So I will just play against 1 AI and move it's difficulty up. I would increase the number of opponents before moving up the AI difficulty. This is a hard game to figure out.
Make the lel statement please. (ie what elo is truly low elo). You've said 800 & below 750 & below, even have said 1k and below (years ago). I think you have 2nd highest amount of YT subscribers in the aoe2 community (congrats btw). So it holds weight.

Yes. This happens alot at low to mid elo.
True enough... Even hand canoneers arent really countered by skirms until late-late game :D

I need a video just about that scout chase sequence. Definitely the MVP for Red.

“They come from the land down under, you Gbeto run, Gbeto take cover”
Fantastic!! Fun cast. Good sportsmanship. Great fight!
Need some Benny Hill music over that scout chase.
Thay's what I've been thinking.
ur advice at the end was solid, learning the game and played lithuanians, castle drop so i can pick up 4 relics xd they get so focused on the castle
Love the new LEL. Thank you for the change. I could watch all day!
I really appreciate you doing away with that ugly tree mod, T90! So much better
I faced a guy like Cornerboi: So I walled him in.

I won such a battle today against Goths was amazing game, they rushed my base I defended mostly
The last time i was this early aztecs were still good in 1v1s
Yup, time sure does exist
I see red knows his judo well
Don't understand why Red kept feeding Light Cav to Blue. He achieved absolutely nothing, yet kept producing Light Cav.

i got into this channel because of corner boy!!!
After two years and 160 hours sitting at 600 elo. If any thing differs from my strat I lose. If it lasts long enough to Imp I always lose to Cav spam.
Why wait till imp?

Does anybody know a channel which hosts also AOE 3?
You should bro I’m hard capped at like 950-1000
900 elo is low? that makes me worried about my low low elo : D

Wow 900 is low Elo now ?
Well it was always below average... Not that i´many higher than 900 :D
