Starting the finale of this tournament made me realize how much I have come to enjoy it and how invested I have become watching all of your uploads. Thank you for your amazing commentary and insights t90 and all of the co-hosts! Looking forward to TTL!
@@myopiniondoesntmatter7068 You certainly have a fitting username. That's not what a spoiler is but even if it was, if you read the comments before watching the video that's on you. People use the comments to discuss what happened in the video, that's the entire point of UA-cam comments.
@@giantWario It is actually. When you single out praise for one of the two players its basically spoiling. And there is ZERO way to avoid the top comment before watching. Get over yourself you selfish prick, all you're doing is hurting the already dwindling scene by taking eyes off it. You're just as bad as Margougou. Not everyone has 10 hours to watch 4 Bo7's, especially if they happen from 1-7am their time.
Amazing tourney t90, you outdid yourself with this one! Stranded was my favourite map, all matches there where pure chaos. The best thing was having a new set of top 4 players. Long live AOE2, best game ever!
WWC2 is goated I very much feel like the guy that txt'd T90 this tournament was so refreshing more messiness less booming and playing safe truely peak age. ACCM is on an absolute warpath lately and its scary to watch
Chuc mung ACCM ! Beast, you've been so fun to watch. So fresh. Your ability to bring back games from the dead and pick the most awkward angles is insane. Loved it !
The Hera Nicov Series was actually my favourite since it was so competitive, but I really love that ACCM won this with his aggressive creativity, makes the game interesting to watch
The strategy win was on par with when HERA beat VIPER in hidden cup a few years back. Micro was good but man had a plan every map and executed. It felt like that hidden cup grand final. Awesome.
AMAZING tournament!! Loved every game I saw. This was also a final we deserved, even though it was dominant, the games were still INSANE! I have so much respect for the way ACCM played, he's a beast! Thanks for all the coverage T90 and Dave!
I love seeing outposts being used by the aggressor in that last game, their usual weakness of being easily destroyed is offset by you having all the momentum.
Another amazing series from ACCM. Absolutely will love watching as much of him as possible in the future. Thank you T90 for an excellent cast all tourney.
This is probably the best aoe2 tourney format. More variety in starts, strats, maps, and messiness. It gives other top talent a better chance too. This and TTL are tops
the problem is that devs are tinkering AoE to match what the top players do/plan etc. So it is very difficult to come up with something different. ACCM, MBL Phosphorou etc are some players that break the norm, but they can go as far because the game is rigged to be played according to what the current meta is.
@@Gravitatis the problems comes form the top players playing a standard game and not deviating from his. The reason why for example game styles like ACCM or Phosphorou cannot be followed is because that you need a certain kind of non conformity thinking to not follow the way it is meant to be played. But as most people in the leader follow the specific builds , the devs develop around those, so the chance on coming with a crazy build is not easy since the mechanics are rigged to specific lines. think about this like the scotch brands. Scottish and Irish ones need to follow specific processes and use specific ingredients in order for their whiskeys to be able to be branded as Scotch or Irish. Japanese dont have that one, this is why so many Japanese whiskeys are in the top list because they have more room to play with the ingredients/process and hence get a different flavor.
@@John7No i know what you mean, but the original meta of aoe2 was created _after_ the game itself was created so the game itself came first, then the first meta, then the devs changed the game to suit the first meta
Lancers? Are those new? Granted I haven’t played this game since 2020 lol. Played from like 2005-2020, never seen mongol lancers before. Just the mangudai
Hi T90, can you make thes videos for the duration of 6 hours? just put in some black or screensaver at the end. because now, when is 3-1 with only 30 min rmaining in the vid, we all knwo it gone be 4-1... thank you in advance
I swear its impossible to be an aussie and follow pro aoe2. starts at like 1am and if you try to watch it in the morning some asshole has already spoiled results in comments or video titles. cant even use twitch vods cause it always gets spoiled in the process of finding the right vod. never had this much trouble with spoilers following any other esport, but for whatever reason the aoe2 just wants less eyeballs on content for a game that could really use it.
At least these latest uploads had neutral video titles - I made the mistake of reading comments on the semi so this final was spoiled for me. Lesson learnt...no comments until the tourny is over!
@@AM2K2 If only it was easy to avoid the top comment. Before opening to full screen the top comment is bouncing around in the second it takes to load. When someone praises a specific player saying how good they've been since they've changed to aggro its a spoiler whether they think so or not.
The tournament was a blast! Great performances, great maps. Very exciting all the way through. Looking forward to TTL!

ACCM has always been fun to watch but ever since he started just going full aggro he's become the most entertaining player in the scene.
Agreed his aggression is insane. Something most players don't do because they're afraid of the risk of commitment.
why spoil

@@giantWarioOn mobile comments are always visible, the main point I would make is that it's not technically a spoiler
ACCM has played some of the most entertaining aoe2 I've ever seen throughout the whole tournament

Every game was even better then the previous!
Glad for both finalists to see them there but really happy for the winner!

That game 2 may be the best Golden Hill game I’ve seen all tournament
25:45
@ thanks, I said that after the game and was too lazy to go grab the timestamp
The strategy win was on par with when HERA beat VIPER in hidden cup a few years back. Micro was good but man had a plan every map and executed. It felt like that hidden cup grand final. Awesome.
Thanks for organization tristan, it was delicious as always
Great tourney, great performance by the winner. Loved his run
AMAZING tournament!! Loved every game I saw. This was also a final we deserved, even though it was dominant, the games were still INSANE! I have so much respect for the way ACCM played, he's a beast! Thanks for all the coverage T90 and Dave!
Hell of a tournament, super excited to see the end here
Amazing performance from ACCM, you now have a new fan bro!
"My shrivamsha is like dodging the arrow, you know?" 🤣
Liereyy walling in his trebs in game four made me so happy
I used to say mbl was the most entertaining but damn accm might be the guy
By far most fun tourney of the year. Thank T90 and Dave!
now we want to see Hera VS ACCM
I love seeing outposts being used by the aggressor in that last game, their usual weakness of being easily destroyed is offset by you having all the momentum.
What will it take to get stranded on the map pool!
How can the finals be only 2:40 hrs long with accm in it🤯
Another amazing series from ACCM. Absolutely will love watching as much of him as possible in the future. Thank you T90 for an excellent cast all tourney.
36:06 "and then you have a semi and everyones like oh my god"
i get the same reaction when i too have a semi
1:50:21 villager answering T90's question
Great tournament, purely in terms of gameplay quality and unique strategies this tournament was much more entertaining than even Hidden Cup.
What a great Final, man
2:12:35 HUGE SHOT !!
2:07:03 Bigger
Wish available in 720p @30 My internet can do 720 but not 720 @60. Forced to watch at 480 and aoe2 + 480 = artifacting hell
Anyone else you want to thank?

LMAO

ACCM was a beast, so good to watch
Was everywhere! GG champ
All your army are belongs to us!
What-a-match!

but metas come _after_ the games do, not before them

i know what you mean, but the original meta of aoe2 was created _after_ the game itself was created
so the game itself came first, then the first meta, then the devs changed the game to suit the first meta
@@Gravitatis yes , so instead of developing according to the meta, let the game be free. Allows multiple lanes to get to a goal.

No spoiler here, but I'm extremely, extremely happy with the result here. Congrats to the winner, you're amazing man 💖💖

Let's Go ACCM Congrats brother!!!!
I swear its impossible to be an aussie and follow pro aoe2.
starts at like 1am and if you try to watch it in the morning some asshole has already spoiled results in comments or video titles.
cant even use twitch vods cause it always gets spoiled in the process of finding the right vod.

All in all the time such entertaining aoe
The flickering between all visible on and off is very annoying, some of us are trying to sleep here..
