It’s a very difficult tribe to handle, as Oumaji is more of an aggressive expansion, Xin-Xi is more of a defensive investor! I’ll say I gotten way better training with this tribe due to having to chose the needed tech rather than the effective tech, like defenders with mountains shut down everything but you almost immediately need riders if your opponent stops training even 2 less units than last turn
Game 1: GullYY quit because he sucks at Polytopia Game 2: GullYY quit because he sucks at using bridges Game 3: GullYY quit because his cities just weren't good Game 4: GullYY quit because he sucks at fighting giants Game 5: GullYY quit because Zebasi had too many rafts Game 6: GullYY quit because the map made him Game 7: GullYY won, but at what cost (These are all jokes btw, this video was a great watch)
Now this is the kind of video I wanna watch! Believe it or not, watching someone struggle against difficult odds is more engaging than watching them trounce bots for the 15th time. Thank you GullYY
@@varenbob Looking at the length of an average 900 game against bots, as long as he doesn't die within 10-15 turns on most of his games, it's safe to say it *could go over 100 hours*
I love this type of long form video, this was great It's so much more fun, for me at least, to watch not just the successes but the fails, too, and I often find myself wanting to just watch a bunch of games in a row The single game videos always leave me wanting more gameplay, which is good, but this scratches that itch lol
Gully you’re hurting me man, I main this tribe when I started out due to its unique nature! I do love this style if video tho, gives depth to how many play similarly
Your misery makes me feel better. Some times its just one bad spawn after another. Had this with Elyron - one crap spawn after another - lost 3 games in a row. I've noted the smaller the map the more luck involved. Good game play though -
I actually made a video on this topic a long time ago: ua-cam.com/video/BsUSHrLSLi8/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared Short answer is that Midjiwan said it's "Chin-Chi"
That's funny the Japanese translation also uses Shin Shi. It's very clearly based on China and in pinyin, the way Chinese is written in Roman letters, the 'x' makes a 'sh' sound. You can see it in the name of president Xi Jinping, the current leader of China. If midjiwan wanted it to be pronounced Chin Chi they should've used 'q' or 'ch' instead.
@@Lodeous I always thought it was pronounced zhin-zhi like how xi jinping's name is pronounced. Like a sh sound but with a Z idk how to describe it lol.
I’ll be honest Gullyy, I actually find Xin-Xi one of the more weaker tribes due to the fact of how bad their terrain is. I may have a biased opinon, but my spawns as Xin-do are not even as good as a spawns of Vengir’s…
wow literally all 6 starts where unwinnable it made me cry. ddn't help that everyone was playing the sweatiest tribes of all time. but the last game was so satisfying too see and the map generation was so interesting.
I kinda like xin-xi, for me they're very satisfying to play as. Also, GullYY, why did you stop using your webcam in videos? Or you'll still be using it, just in videos with other topics, not 1v1s?
There's a reason I call xin-xi the lottery tribe. You need to get lucky to win with them :P. Playing on normal lakes is insult to injury, as that map has a ton of imbalanced spawns.
Hi, Yadakk player here. Good game. I must admit, luck was not even. Although, it was the best spawn you get😅😂. Anyway, congrats to you for holing out so long! You beat the challenge!💪🧠 And that lvl 7? Population ruin 2x
I finally have more elo then gullyy. All it took was for him to loose 200 points from playing xin xi and for me to gain 30p from playing post buff zebasi and cymanti
As a member of the Xin-Xi mains i can confirm.... we dont exist 😭
I like xin xi honestly, they're not good but they have decent mid game

China's economy is crazy good
bUt At WhAt CoSt???
Already in first game I really think he could have just taken the capital
sounds like a skill issue hmmm
"Xin xi is not that bad."
*Looks at the length of the video*
"Nevermind."
To be fair I played pretty badly. Some of these were definitely winnable
@@GullYYGamer you probably could have just blamed xin xi and I wouldn't even disagree

Yes!
You really had me yelling at my phone “YOU CAN AFFORD IT” @ 43:20 😂😂
27:55 if you ever decide to livestream, you have a nice notification sound!
Now do it with *Vengir* on 900 drylands maps with 9 players
Lol!!!! But that would be awesome though
10 hour video
@@varenbob 10 hour gully video let's go 💪

If you get lucky and half your closest neighboors resign, then it is not that bad.
16:35 Many fish were sacrificed for f-all.
Not like they could have helped this cursed game.

A 40+ mins video of a polytopia player continuously lose sanity
Not gonna lie, I really loved watching the struggles and interesting dilemmas in this game. Thanks!
I thought I'm the only person who had a straight loss streak (I'm from about 1150 ELO to 1090) then I was wrong! Thanks for uploading this man!👌
Loved this vid gully! I love seeing you have to work harder for wins (maybe not that hard) great watch
Mr. Blueberry Cheesecake wants to 1 v 1 against you
Up! Up! Up!
Xin xi vs Yadakk on lakes, interesting matchup
GullYY: "Chin-Chi"
Me : "Zin-Zi"
The translator I use : "Shin-Shi"
WHAT IS THE CORRECT PRONOUNCIATION
I actually made a video on this topic a long time ago: ua-cam.com/video/BsUSHrLSLi8/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared
Short answer is that Midjiwan said it's "Chin-Chi"
@@GullYYGameroh ok thanks
Despite what Mijiwan says, as an Asian, with Korean translations saying it’s pronounced Shin Shi, I say that’s the correct pronunciation
That's funny the Japanese translation also uses Shin Shi.
It's very clearly based on China and in pinyin, the way Chinese is written in Roman letters, the 'x' makes a 'sh' sound. You can see it in the name of president Xi Jinping, the current leader of China. If midjiwan wanted it to be pronounced Chin Chi they should've used 'q' or 'ch' instead.

"Xin-Xi player suffers for 44 minutes"
in Game 2, is there a reason why he isn't putting more of his troops on mountains for defensive bonuses?
All it took is one massive mining spot and Bardur having to either take climbing or fishing to explore
next video idea: tryharding to regain lost elo
The gamer rage scream made my day. Thank you.
Great video 44 min is fire
Gully just absolutely refused to get a navy this game smh
I’ll be honest Gullyy, I actually find Xin-Xi one of the more weaker tribes due to the fact of how bad their terrain is. I may have a biased opinon, but my spawns as Xin-do are not even as good as a spawns of Vengir’s…
One of my friemds discovered that if you put a scout back on land it continues having 2 tiles of vision
only for that move tho
@@klibe ohh didint know it
wow literally all 6 starts where unwinnable it made me cry. ddn't help that everyone was playing the sweatiest tribes of all time. but the last game was so satisfying too see and the map generation was so interesting.
I love playing with Xin-Xi, and this is absolutely the Xin-Xi experience. Needs better resource rates. Or higer tech chance from ruins.
Xin xi being a pain and lakes generation being wacky makes this a real issue
3:18 how do you know that that is their capital
You can see that the name of the city is underlined, which indicates that that's their capital
@@GullYYGamer okay thanks
U should do more of this with other tribes!
I kinda like xin-xi, for me they're very satisfying to play as.
Also, GullYY, why did you stop using your webcam in videos? Or you'll still be using it, just in videos with other topics, not 1v1s?
I just wanted to expirament with the web cam and see how it felt. I'll probably bring it back for some future topics
There's a reason I call xin-xi the lottery tribe. You need to get lucky to win with them :P. Playing on normal lakes is insult to injury, as that map has a ton of imbalanced spawns.
we ball
Can you play Zebasi small lakes? 3 games? I feel like they are underrated.
I feel like vision is more helpful than you think.
Typically good to walk onto a mountain first turn IMO.
I mean, Xin Xi isn’t really the best tribe, even for a free tribe, Bardur, Oumaji and Imperius is definitely the best to try out.
Spawn RNG deltas are the worst issue in game right now, ahead of any meta or tribe imbalance IMO
please 1v1 mr blueberry cheesecake, you guys are the 2 best polytopia channels on yt!!
xin xi will always be my favourite because of the immaculate looks and vibe
Shows that the map generator needs really an upgrade- such unbalanced situations should not happen
first game, would rushing a second giant asap with forges and getting them both into boats be enough to attack their capital?
Ive only watched match 1 but as you can see xin xi and vengir need buffs
How do you know ther is land in the fog before getting vision?
I'm having some problems when trying to conect to the multiplayer servers, does someone know how to solve it?
You need to have at least one paid tribe, other than that I don't really know
You could try to check if there's a game update, or you could try to connect a Google Play account or something
@@cainthegreat3056 I have 2
Thnks
man really made a selling comp
EPIC VIDEO!
Wow I always thought of Xin-Xi as a halfway decent tribe, but Gully made it quite clear that it is NOT.
Hi, Yadakk player here. Good game. I must admit, luck was not even. Although, it was the best spawn you get😅😂.
Anyway, congrats to you for holing out so long! You beat the challenge!💪🧠
And that lvl 7? Population ruin 2x
Is he going to do this with every tribe. Also the clear problem was lack of tribe skin
Can you play a couple Luxidor games ? Im tryna work on my strategy
Lakes is definitely tied with archipelago for my least favorite map type. For some reason the terrain generation always seems to hate me. :(
Now do Ai-Mo on a tiny map next
How are you so good at using xin-xi
what the sigma
lol ty for vid Ty Midjiwan for bad luck
new video idea: FFA multiplayer match with 4-6 players
Challenge: LOSE to a Medium bot which is playing Cymanti Waterlands
I think there is a max video length. You will have to do it like 20 times
I only now realized that capitals are underlined....
Nice video
Now do luxidor lol
Make Tribe Tier List!!
Do same video but with vengir
how much elo did you lose?
It's worse whenever you see reddit posts of people getting level 5-7 forges on Xin-Xi. 😭
This video was great
i decided to play some xin xi, currently in a 1v3 which sucks
I want an ai-mo video, just for fun
On July 11th your prayers will be answered
Xin-xi is either hit or miss, depending on if the map screws you over.
I finally have more elo then gullyy. All it took was for him to loose 200 points from playing xin xi and for me to gain 30p from playing post buff zebasi and cymanti
I guess steamrolling those bot back in the day are biting you in the butt
Should I stop playing Xin-Xi continents based on this? Lmao.
First time seeing him lose 😐
Also Mr blueberry says he wants to 1v1
Dry land Xinxi is doable…… lake Xinxi needs luck. Dry land Vengir is hell, but lake Vengir is actually decent if you play your defense
They nerfed swordsmen😢. Xin xi main here
That first map was TERRIBLE! so one sided
1v1 Cloudglidder from Tempest on Polychampions Xin Dry Large live game on call.
Just don't play lakes, lakes is the worst for 1v1s
only the last map was "balanced"
You wluld have won instantly if you used the skin
Man they have to fix the game its so rng
Mr blueberry 1v1 please please please please please please please please
