- In this Total War Warhammer 2 multiplayer gameplay, the two best players in the world face off as Felkon, the High Elves and Alarielle the Everqueen battle against Tlaxtlan Soothsayer, Lord Skrolk and the Skaven.
Tournament game from My Son HW's League Finals, you can check out his Twitch channel here! - www.twitch.tv/my_son_hw
I thought you made your 3 or whatever yo son host TW tournaments :v
OMG IS THAT HALO IN THE BACKGROUND YESSSSSS 🙏🏻
Lol do u know what music u were playing in the background at the start? Thanks
what happens if the two best players in tww2 are forced to play what are considered the 2 worst factions with roughly half (at most) of their army value being chosen by their opponent
how janky will the armies be and how do they compensate
In typical Skaven fashion, the rat ogre can be seen, pummeling the shit out of a fellow skaven warrior.
“Fellow” is subjective in skaven society
I'm going to go with "One of them loses."
my goodness the mighty jingles
AkTuALLy JiNgLeS one of them is going to win
I'm going with "one of them wins"
All hail captain obvious. Where would we be without you!
Seeing the two forces of magic directly oppose one another was really cool to see scrolks decay vs alarielles healing haha
This how Warhammer is meant to be played not that tactical squad fight *%&$
The council guard fighting down to the last rat to protect their lord is so badass. Who’d have thought that the skaven of all factions would have the most loyal unit in the game
warpstone's a helluva drug
Because the council guard are awesome in the lore, iirc they're also known as the Albino guard? The council scares them so much they lose the color of their fur and become all white and are 100% loyal because they no longer fear any torture or death as much as they fear the councils wrath. This would be boring for basically anyone but the skaven.
@@Dwarfurious also arent they missing their tongues? :0
@@Dwarfurious I thought the albinos born were made into council guard

The lack of cheese is insulting, this will be written down in the book of grudges
It's the way Indy Pride announces that really gets me pumped for these kinds of battles
Agreed, no idea why CA hasn’t signed him on as a caster, he’s got that ESPN SportsCenter talent
Dingus McPickle who’s indie pride?
Truth.
@@rockstar450 indie pride is the commentator for this channel 😂
@Dreymon Green thanks!
Your intro, and story telling ability, are what keep me coming here. I don’t have WiFi, the money for the laptop, or the time to play. So I love vicariously through your videos to ease my need for 40k battles.
I mean, this is non 40k Warhammer, but it's good that it gets that itch.
PhiliChez true. But I also like the idea of Sigmar becoming the emperor on the golden throne 40k years after the events in all these battles that take place.
That being said...you don’t find many Dawi in 40k...they didn’t make it:/
@@thethreeedgedsword7253 Actually there have been references to the squats in the 40k lore recently, though mostly as individuals not as a faction. (Though there was an interesting mechanicum transmission transcript which might indicate more, thats still in realm of conspiracy 8D)
glad you enjoy em mate :)
amazed how the skaven, at every point where it looks like it should be game over, manage to survive and threaten their opponent. like it seemed to me they were 'losing' the entire match and yet they win
That's how you win as a Skaven. You don't lose units when they're expendable already ;)
I have absolutely no idea what is going on. There's no Yari Ashigaru here. Why is there a massive beast trampling around. Where did that lady get the bird from, and how can the Takeda abuse them.
Fun stuff tho.

Wow. amazing comment, holy cow. Im loling
You already got Fire Cavalry.
Greedy aren't we?
@@smittywerbenjaggermanjense1485 more like voloundpilled
FYI, Star of Avelorn no longer decreases the cost of Earthblood in multiplayer.
ah yeah forgot they made that change. thanks!
sry, but could you tell me for what FYI is standing for?
@@Terensful for your information.
@@daxbroadbent2956 thanks mate appricate it!
You miss the chance to drop the double: for your information, FYI.
As much as I was cheering for Felkon and the HE, Sooth was really smart here in knowing the type of builds that Felkon typically brings. This build would've been in trouble against a bunch of shadow warriors, but Felkon rarely goes with super missile heavy builds.
Good show from both of them. Think skaven would have been better if they went with some triads and drills instead of the warps.
@@kano101435 warps are mainly for forcing Felkon to advance. Also that's the rule of tourni, armies with lower range have to advance, as I remember.
If Skaven doesn't bring arti or range they would have to advance, and no way skaven can catch a cav army
@@kano101435 Warps were probably also to take out cav models, as Felkon has brought double DPs in this matchup in the past
@@redpsi6409 my bad
@@anhkhoanguyen8562 yeah jezzails might have worked
That constant drain of AoE damage is so filthy holy shit.
Filthy? It is Skrolk after all...
Just as planned...
"SHE IS HEALING HEALING!"
"Dont Worry lads, We'll just Stink Away That Heal."
*Elarielle Sweats*
as filthy as the aoe heal on those beast troops on the other side
So is the heal spam. Two sides of the same coin, really.
Halo 3 music
oooh I thought I recognized the music
Lord Skrolk just in a pelican😂
Hell yeah
I was just waiting for Master Chief to come flying over the hill in a Warthog..
This was the first multiplayer match I've watched. Great commentary and interesting to see just how different the multiplayer battles are compared to campaign. I rarely if ever use rangers in campaign
I was hoping Indypride was referring to himself as one of the two best players in the world lol
cowcreamandsoggybiscuitTW IS the best TW player, he would win 2v1 against these chumps but he had to give us a show ;)
@@demonmercer2736 Oh for sure, he is far too modest
eh maybe top 5
Who would you put as the top 5 players(and maybe what faction they do the best with)?
@@Fly-the-Light Its hard to say. I think you could make a good argument that Aerocrastic and Lotus Moon are in the top 5 as well when it comes to competitive players. but there are maybe 15 or so that all right there at the top and stand a good shot at beating each other on any given day
Was half expecting the chief to turn up on a warthog 🤣
Jesus, never actually zoomed in far enough to see Skrolk's skipping/gliding animation that's terrifying.
Glad you mentioned the warp-shard armor; I'm mostly through a(nother) Skrolk campaign, and that stuff is pure evil. Pop it on a durable lord/hero like Skrolk or a hardy Grey Seer and watch armies melt.
You tried to hide that halo music by turning it right down... but I caught it ... will recognize my childhood theme anywhere .
The answer to Skrolk , a Kroq-Gar in rage after seeing his Grymloq being murdered right under his eyes.
This is the first of your videos I've seen. I'm very impressed! Good commentary and the close up action shots, showcasing the great models and animation, are lovely. Well done!
thank you glad you enjoyed it Christopher!
I just couldn't see the Skaven winning at all. The difference in the power of the units is just too much.... But he put up an AMAZING fight, he did far better than I expected. That was a fanatstic battle I'm gobsmacked!!!
You’d be surprised how far Skaven can get you in these mobile missile matches. I fought a guy earlier on who had a similar HE build and I thought “no way I stand a chance” I had 4 rat ogres Throt and one abomination with slaves somehow I managed to pull of a win when the HE player tried to kill my plague priest with Imrik. Point is Skaven slaves are perfect meat shields that’s how you win
FINALY! I love games with Felcon but its nice to see he isn't unbeatable. A glorious win for my favorite faction! Definitely a hair tearing match!
while these tournaments definitely show alot of skill in selecting units and playing out a battle, id love to see competitive players play a campaign, but it would be good if Total war could develop a much smaller circle like map for it
A campaign can really change everything and test a player
Your wish has been granted :)
@@tiebeswinkels8584 what has happend?
@@serax126 Not long after OP posted that comment, CA revealed some multiplayer campaign modes
Love the camera work, this game looks amazing close up. Something like to just watch my replays to see the art work
woah i would have thought the elves were winning the whole game and ten the skaven just randomly wins. Great callouts on this match and explaining exactly what's going on. I don't think i'm smart enough to play this game but I try anyway lol
Don't forget that these players are the best of the best, your average multiplayer battle wont be nearly so complicated so don't be scared to give it a try.
The Skaven box formation cost less, than the HElfs who died, while breaking it. Getting rid of the cannons, early, is what made it a who dies first toss-up, between the Engineer and the Nobles. Like any RTS, it'll take a lot of practice, but you'll get there.
The skaven invested a lot of their power in their core of multiple heroes. High elves had more powerful, expensive units but only one hero. Still, the battle was insanely close and even one more charge or a little bit of extra hp on the high elf chariot could have won it for him.
Oh, yeah. Google something, like "RTS game training" or the like, and you'll find tons of tutorials, from Ye Olden Days of Starcraft. It was in a lot of peoples' financial interest to get as many non-RTS players, as possible, to git gud enough at the genre to feel comfortable with competitive play.
@@VortexMagus *two heroes. The two nobles in their chariots.
0:46 This one Silver-Helm is having a real rough time trying to walk
What do you mean? He’s walking sideways like a crab shou- HES A VAMPIRE COAST SPY!!!
The "two best players" aren't using Steam Tanks.
Shameful.
Why would they?
Obviously the lady's best invention was a noble steed, a solid lance and a man's(or woman's) strong arms to wield them. Such is the lady's will!
@@Necromacer67 Are you suggesting elves have strong arms?
@@Necromacer67 what's this? Someone not praising the Almighty steam tank god? PREPARE THE EXSTEAMINATUS ON THIS LOCATION, THE STEAMPEROR PROTECTS
IZ GOT KRUMP EAZILY WITH THE RAGE OF GORK OR MORK I DUNNO
I mean, can you imagine the skaven version of the steam tank? Well, I can, but it would be disgusting.
I don’t know, we should pray to the cheese god for answers in this question.
I don’t think Legend is taking prayers
Damn, this is truly the highest level of total war warhammer available. Gorgeous.
I just picked up this game yesterday. Coming from Heroes of might and magic, this is like year 3000 and nobody wears pants anymore.
I've never played Total War, but watching this was entertaining and easy to understand thanks to the commentary. Great job mate
thanks mate glad you enjoyed!
Third time I'm watching this match- live for the first time and on Felkon's stream for the second but this match is still a pleasure to watch. Indy's ability to build hype brings this to a whole new level. Really hope you cast the DE vs NRS match too if possible.
Glad you enjoyed! Not sure yet if I will cast the DE Norsca game, it was definitely a good watch but also may give people the wrong impression of the series if I only upload Sooth wins
Gotta say this indy, absolutely adore your commentary - incredibly engaging and entertaining.
thank you Jack much appreciated my dude!
14:58 I felt so sorry for Felkon there. The way the Noble chariot wasn't able to pull off that charge was BS and could have won Felkon the game if it hadn't suddenly grinded to a screeching halt for no reason. Amazing battle regardless
I think it hit a unit before it entered its charge, and when it went to normal attack it was micro-Ed out. That or some wierd charge brace mechanic that kicked in incorrect. Shit like that is why I don’t use chariots.
It did enough cycle charging that wheels and haggard horses must've had enough
Indeed but lets have a shout out for ma boy Sooth - showing why he is STILL the benchmark for greatness when it comes to TW2 MP , i counted a number of times the BOP was sliding out of control but yet he still walks a way with victory The Blessings of Ulric are with this one for he is the last of the Umberogen
The chariot hits one of the rangers, sending him flying, and bumps against a second ranger who stops all of the charge's momentum.
Ehh I don't think it really would've mattered. We all know about how awkward cav/chariot charges are in how they'll often send lords/heroes on foot flying without doing any damage. I don't think he would've been able to get enough damage off against Skrolk and the Assassin before breaking/dying even if he got a full charge.
9:19 He stabbed that Skaven's spear so hard its head flew off.
This is one of those matches where the battle is worth more than victory. Such skill and tenacity flaring up in a blaze of glorious combat warms my soul.
Thanks for casting this, Indy, I would have missed it otherwise.
The subtle Halo music is a very nice edition in this video.
Not sure how I found myself here between make up tutorials and media takes but I'm here for it. This game is weirdly satisfying to watch
too horrible to die feels like "bring it dooown bring it doooown" but it just does not go down.
Man this video was very enjoyable and engaging!
This is what I love about this channel. Epic music, informative and entertaining commentary, intense battles between top-level players, and the gorgeous cinematics to boot. I am a fan and I have been serviced.
PS: Any idea if you're going to do an SFO stream in the future? Or just anything SFO related?
thanks mate :) SFO replays this week!
YAAAAAAAAS
”Limp dick charge” Had me lmao 😂
This is how i imagine the lore battles going (with no attention to actual lore or army size but you get the point) Its dope.
Had a game like this today with even lower numbers left for a win. Me + Very Hard A.I. vs two players. We were losing horribly but surprisingly proper Dwarven Rangers won the day haha! I only had a Thane and two barely surviving ranger units 18/13 troops and elf ally had 2 units of 12/21 starshafts. Was so much fun!
Hey in the opening why do I get the feels?
“For a brick he flew pretty good.”😂😂
Hell of a game this, could have gone either way till the end
I love how you opened the video with the Halo 3 Warthog Run music.
awww Might and Magic combat :D
thx for HoMM reference!
your a great player mate, well done
It feels like Im the only one who remembers the 3DO rpg games :( i miss them
@@cxfxcdude What the hell? those games are worshipped like a cult and most people know them.
Jebu911 6, 7, and 8
Mandate of Heaven
Blood and Honor
Day of the Destroyer
Those are the ones i mean. Not the Heroes ones. Never got into those
@@cxfxcdude did any of these involve aliens or science fiction shit? I heard the RPG line loved putting those in
Starting a tournament with Halo theme! I approve!
Master Chief watching the battle from the distance: Holy Shit
Awesome cinematic editing
Hey guys. Was wondering why there’s “ less blood “ and more animations in this video compared to my war hammer 2 ?
using the Less Blood and Gore mod. but if you have less animations, its likely because your settings aren't on Ultra. i think some animations dont play unless you have close to maxed out settings
milkandcookiesTW oh I see. Thanks bro ! I’ll try setting my thing on ultra and downloading the less blood and gore mod :)
Liked the Halo Infinite soundtrack in the background, brought some good memories. ;)
Excellent camera work, pleasure to watch, like a epic movie 🍿
thanks toni :)
Wow this is getting close to top level Starcraft content both in terms of commentary and more importantly gameplay as well, the strategy and micro from both players were just incredible!
glad you enjoyed it mate!
THEY BROKE THE BOX BUT CAN THEY CRACK THE NUT!?
Indypride getting excited there :'D
Nice touch on the halo music, it really grabbed my attention to the video.
I wonder why with two factions with the best ranged units in the game they end up using such melee heavy builds?
probably both expected the other to go that way and thus surprise the foe with a semi-full melee. That Skaven build could out-gun most ranged units (at least from distance, for a while, with cannons) while HE would have destroyed any Gezells or WarpMachine Guns.
love the close ups. subbed
warthog run approved, btw I love your casting, makes the battles so fun to watch
what an epic cast with the close ups!
This was entertaining and well narrated. Thanks
New to the channel - really enjoyed watching this... I’m a campaign only player, dabbling in online but man am I a rookie! Great video. The horror of the micro management terrifies me haha! Loved how you recorded this video and props for the Halo soundtrack!
the "Best Players Not Named Lotus_Moon" you mean
Lotus is absolutely an amazing player. But I dont think he's demonstrated the consistency or sheer amount of #1 or #2 placements Felkon and Sooth have on big stages
@@milkandcookiesTW Not disputing any statements that they are very consitant and great players but i simply don't participate in events as the time slot they start for me really sucks :(, most start at 2 to 3AM my time and dont finish until 9 or so am, after about 3 games i simply dont enjoy playing at that time, not to say i would win or not but its the reason that i participate in an event once every few months. But going about consistency of placements in events i agree those two + Xhiphos should be considered best out there, if we include just important events i would add AERO to the list also.
That was a splendid display of strategy in action. Ty
Your weekly treat of total war awesomeness
i funded half of this turnie :D my son needs more exposure he is honestly a great guy! has done amazing things for the comunity
?
@@Jewish_skeptic98 how is this confusing?
Hell pit abomination + 1 LL, 1 Plague priest and 1 Warlock engineer.
And a lot of meat shield. Can already tell the entire Skaven force besides 6 units were all expendable and only there to soften up the elf forces as much as possible so the other 6 can do the rest.
still learning the slang and coined terms for tatics i didn't even know existed. crazy good fight
I love how the halo 2 theme is playing in the background.
I swear that I have not seen anything more epic than this. I was grinding my teeth hoping that Skrolk would smash the pigeon to the ground.
I like how you have Halo music playing in the background that's really funny I just finished playing Halo 3 today
Best players? They haven't played me yet!
I have come for the memes and steam tank posting. I'm leaving satisfied.
7:37 It's games like these that impress me the most. Look at the models. The high elves are highly educated and trained. 1st elf calmly walks in, attacks, retreats. 2nd elf engages, attacks retreats. 3rd elf the same. I feel that people don't usually see this attention to detail since you're almost always zoomed out all the way, stressing about the outcome of the match.
the halo music in the background is giving me big nostalgia hits lol
Quality content as always.
*Starts video*
The Halo Combat music in the background lol :D
What a legendery game and cast !
thanks mate!
Usually I really dislike Skaven, but was really rooting for Soothsayer in this one. Well played to both of them. Just glad Felkon lost for once :D
hellpit aboms are so damn beautiful. one of the best looking units CA has ever animated
Looked like the rats were getting their ass kicked the whole time
Love your choice of music
I approve of the music at the beginning
What a fuckin fight. Awesome video!!
Gotta love the Halo music in the beginning haha
With halo music, they truly finished the fight
"My lord, we won... but at what cost!?"
Great battle by great players!
Loving the halo theme in the background
great battle, i need to get back into this game
First time I see a battle that a skaven Frontline doesn't break in the first few seconds of the charge or a cav just steamrolling skaven frontline and shutting down the artillery. Good battle. Wonder when will I see a TK player in this tourna
Fun match, excellent commentary!
thank you!
Wow i love that this feels like a sports event
Jesus that was a close one! I love watching skilled players like this.
On a personal note, what is the best way for skaven to deal with cavalry? I can never pull that off...
A really damn well played game! Could have gone either way at any point of the match. Love this! The worst games are unbalanced games where someone just dominates from before the loading screen.
Love the halo 2 background music lol
