Phosphoru is like half the content on T90's channel these days and I love it. Also, once he pushed blue out of base, would it not have been smart to steal the farms and try to build up his own eco even a little bit?
I think phosphoru's whole gameplan is to get to castle age and then completely abandon spending any time on eco/macro unless completely forced into it. If he created villagers that's fewer resources that can go into sniping his enemy with the unique unit before they have a chance to do anything about it and if you have to think about clicking eco to multiple different things that's less clicks you can spend trying to blow up the enemy in their home. Obviously if it doesn't work it's completely over but that's kind of the nature of all-in boom-or-bust type strategies. I think it's pretty entertaining and the fact that he managed to get to ~top 100 with these plays is very funny
Hi T90! I just found out yesterday that Phosphorus has a YT channel, I was really surprised I had never heard you mention it. I love the big trees, the woodlines look great when i'm not the one trying to place a lumber camp 11 Phosphorus is insane! I lose 6 vills on a woodline in Feudal: 'That's GG.' Phos only has 5 vills total in Castle: 'At least my eco's okay.' 11 GG
@@mokadelic4037 maybe not phosphoru himself, but his strats are being replicated all over the place. And who knows... Maybe I'll get 300 elo better and face the man himself 😂
Posphoru just absolutely refuses to reboom. He got himself in a position where he had a castle at his opponent's base with a bunch of vils. If he manages to build second TC there, which he can because he is in castle age and his opponent is not, you just keep your opponent from advancing to castle age and steamroll him cause he can't build more than one TC. Sure, that would slow down his military unit production, but his KD was so high with the stronger castle units he was producing, this was probably a viable option. He just needs to focus a little more on his eco during all this and his position becomes really strong really fast.
Phos gg there was the right call. He couldn’t chase down vills even if they weren’t bringing in resources. Him carrying on would be only for griefing and your entertainment, so good on phos for the gg there
I think Phosphoru would have won if he actually just started mining gold instead of taking the Demon's stone. He would have afforded a lot more earlier and it would have been enough to kill blue at his base. Also of course if he was a bit better at micro and paying attention to the rest of the map he would have won because he wouldn't have lost his entire eco on that wood line.
taking that gold and having the presence of mind to retreat to the castle when needed, or towering or TCing it if possible puts him in a strong position. He was focused on killing his opponent with the eco he had when he probably had enough military to delay his opponent from castling long enough to get a second TC and enough vils that he just outbooms him and then it's over. With castle age units and his opponent on the run, he probably didn't even need as much eco as his opponent to overpower him (his opponent needs to defend and save for castle age if he hopes to win after all)
Wild game; sometimes as an intermediate player at the game you feel like you can't figure out how those high level games go so awry. This was so good to watch for learning just exactly what happens in faster-paced matches.
there's no way phosphoru could've won that. all AntiDemon had to do would be to run around with his vils and drop mils for deer and farm. get to castle or get a scout army going. all Phosphoru could do is chase with the world's slowest army and either send his single vil with it for repairs or send the vil home or to the castle and slowly buy enough res for another tc and boom. which would take forever
Not even. AntiDemon just needed his two scouts and four archers to snipe the one villager. With that villager dead, Phosphoru can no longer generate resources. Then it’s just a matter of chipping the scorpions until they die.
Phosphoru, slowly turning Arabia into latter game Nomad. :-D Still well done by AntiDemon, for staying alive and noticing that crucial little detail that allowed him to kill Phosphorus economy. Like it was bit of luck, but also it definitely had to be paying attention to that.
This is the essence of Age of Empires. Not booming to 150 vills and some crazy armies, no. THIS is the pure RTS strategy playing, this is how this game should be played all the time :)
I am 4:02 into the game and i take your dare T90. I believe that both are going to castle age, are going to drop a castle on the ennemies and are going to baseswap. My reasons for this thought is : you mentionned in previous videos that the problem to go fast castle against RP is that he castle drop you and take advantage of his strong unique unit to pressure while the castle defend his ressources in your base. If you have a civ where you can emulate his strat (mongol = strong FC with the hunt + strong UU), why not emulate it to the end and do the same yourself. Also earlier in the video, you said antidemo knew RP as if he had a strat in mind. Anyway, my guess is locked, let's see what happens.
1 or 2 farms under the castle would have won the Game for phosporu. But I can imagine that investing in a mill and 2 farms in game where you are so short on money is not easy.
NO AOE GAME WILL BE BETTER THAN THE ONE I DID WITH A FRIEND WE ENDED UP IN ACCEPTING TRUCE...WE EXCAVATED THE HOLE MAP AND MET IN MID AT THE LAST LITTLE FORREST EXCAVATING IT FROM THE TWO OPPOSITE SIDES WITHOUT NOTICING UP TO THE MOMENT THE DISTANCE VIEWS OF THE FARMERS REVEALED EACH OTHER TO US ENDING UP IN A BRAWL OF...FARMERS ( LAST SMALL PEACES OF ARMIES WERE GUARDING THE BASES FOR WITCH HE HAD NOT ENOUGH RESOURCES IN ORDER TO ATTACK)
I truly don’t understand how a player can think they are better than someone and that they only lost because of the strat. The strat is the skill. The only strats that don’t count for skill are strats that drain time like cannon galleon rush on Oasis.
What if TCs did a little bit of bonus damage against scouts? It would probably be really awful for me because my scouts always get nuked by TCs anyways, but I think it makes sense and would help counter the Hera style of running under the TC and killing your vills and crap. Or at least punish it a lot more..
Would have been amazing if Red has bluffed his way to a win. AntiDemon may well have resigned if his TC went down or after more combat, so it’s a pity Red resigned.
Man... How did he not win this? Almost. I think spreading out your eco is one of the best answers to phosphoru, because if he needs to find you in different places he can´t attac and destroy you as fast and the eco wins...
While Phosphoru is awesome, we really need to give credit to AntiDemon here for how awesome that game was. He simply refused to die. ANd wtf was this game hahaha?
I think it was just over. Red has only 1 villager left, has no resources to create anything more, and likely no real opportunity to gather any more resources safely. The scorpions are nice but they're not gonna be able to completely wipe out blue with their remaining health.
I always find it funny how people get upset that people are trying crazy strategies and call them stupid and that they're "playing wrong" and that they're better, because the same,stale game play over and over again is fun lmao
I believe he is phosphorus indeed. Not Phosphoru. Did you ask him? His channel is called Red Phosphorus. And he was called White Phosphorus. Both are allotropes of phosphorus.
I don't care if anyone believes me but I must brag anyway. When I heard "you can't predict what happens" my only guess was that somehow they trade bases. I'm extremely smug.
Spoliers I think he had no feasible wincondition at the end. No point playing on. TC can be repaired forever now. Spread eco around the map and go from there. I think maybe he could've tried to mass a lot of jannies instead.
Lol at the comment about some skilled players not liking our boy Phosporu because he's as skilled. This game is literally a strategy. If it was all about skill, I would have abandoned it a long time ago or just played Starfcraft.

Who is this guy? I've been out of the loop for a long time and I've seen this guy 3 times in a row now.
@@heinz8233 He`s a menace
You expect Phosphoru to be smart about economy?
I think phosphoru's whole gameplan is to get to castle age and then completely abandon spending any time on eco/macro unless completely forced into it. If he created villagers that's fewer resources that can go into sniping his enemy with the unique unit before they have a chance to do anything about it and if you have to think about clicking eco to multiple different things that's less clicks you can spend trying to blow up the enemy in their home.

@@heinz8233 A genius, pushing the meta.
Honestly the chaos of T90's phone just added to the vibe of the chaos of the game 🤌
I think big trees are fine for commentary, small trees dont really add anything when you arent the one playing
Completely agree
Yep, very true
For tournament and most pro games small trees should be on even for casting.. sucks when you can't see whats going on and see their epic micro
Hi T90! I just found out yesterday that Phosphorus has a YT channel, I was really surprised I had never heard you mention it.

phosphoru is just leading AoE into a golden age of entertainment
to correct you, a golden age of entertainment for WATCHING, not playing.
The third AoE golden age looks promising
I agree, he has been one of the most consistently entertaining players to watch!
@@thomas1644let's be real, players like us will likely never face Phosphoru in a match 😂
@@mokadelic4037 maybe not phosphoru himself, but his strats are being replicated all over the place. And who knows... Maybe I'll get 300 elo better and face the man himself 😂
Red Phosphoru be like:
"They can't raid your economy if you don't have one!"
*taps head*
Sun Tzu would be proud of this guy, hahaha

Big trees are so much more nostalgic. Missing a wall isn't a problem for spectators:)
14:00
this is where the phosphoru strat breaks down.
at this point he MUST start building his economy back.
this exact same problem has been observed many times by now.
Phos gg there was the right call. He couldn’t chase down vills even if they weren’t bringing in resources.
Him carrying on would be only for griefing and your entertainment, so good on phos for the gg there
Did you see Phosphoru's new video about his stop micro tech?
no attack stance micro, no less!
@@nicholass5621 it's honestly really cool, and I hope I can start seeing it used in pro games
@@innertuber4049 I might be being overdramatic, but I think this is the tech that makes infantry not only viable, but ridiculously strong
Big trees are good for those games imo, when it comes to gorest nothing or 8 player games the small trees are better

Big trees look so amazing, it's a shame they make it super hard to click on stuff haha.
from a non player who likes aoe2 gameplays, phosphoru is by far the most entertaining player in these streams
I like the big trees :)
BIG TREES ALWAYS LOOK BETTER TY
I honestly miss big trees it really takes me back to the "good ole days"
Big trees are the only trees for spectating.
Pro big trees!!!!
"These villagers here are living a very sad life" 😂

This is the most low-elo feeling high-elo game I have ever seen
The desperation towers, the mismatched armies, just *chef's kiss*...
30:51 These Villa are gonna go head over here
Drop a mill
Take some deer 🎵
love the big trees
I'm a simple man, I see Phosphoru, I click

I thought I had playback speed on 1.5 at first but nah this game was that fast. Love it, t90 and redphos GG!
Definitely big tree fan

Phosphoru again lets gooooooo
The palisades + siege workshop around Phosphoru's gold look like a ? on the minimap.
This is a reference to what on earth is happening in this game
28:30 my enjoyment was diminished! I want my money back! Oh yeah, nvm
😂😂
I'd have given up so many times. If Phosphoru ever figures out how to manage his eco he'll be even more scary.

Big trees is nice every now and then. But you don't want to wear them everyday!
Prettty painfull to see the TC shotdown by the tower. You see coming

I see phosphorus, I click phosphorus. Very simple

This is still way better than 10 years of Huns mirror scouts!
Antidemon is a pretty good player. I faced him on ranked many times. GG , Anti. Amazing game.
yes big trees every now and then keeps me on my toes. TY T90
The craziest thing about this game is Phosphoru had the score lead when he called the GG with only 1 villager! 🤯
29:46 brooooooooooooooooooooooo
Imagine blue killing the market early on when he took over with towers
More phosphoru! Love these videos 😂
Nice video !
Phosphorus is eco blind. He just needs to add only 1 vill at a time when he attacks enemy under the tc to food. He will become unstoppable.
never been so early but its a phosphoru game so its gna be masterclass
23:20 highlight, phosphoru loses 20% of his eco.
RP bringing the food to the table for T90 these months
What a story arch, insane
I don't know how but this looks VERY much like my 400 ELO games xD
RP was pissing ME off and i wasnt even the guy playin! lolol
Why is there still no Canadian civ???
Is the "seek shelter" into ram exploit been fixed yet?, I was surprised phosphoru didn't abuse it this time with his jannisaries.
1 or 2 farms under the castle would have won the Game for phosporu. But I can imagine that investing in a mill and 2 farms in game where you are so short on money is not easy.
It feels like Phosphoru is changing the way AoE will be played.
extremely entertaining game. I think we are missing the YT logo on the thumbnail though!

phosphoru doesnt scout because that increases his score and he doesnt want to scare his opponent
Hell yeah, BIG TREE !
Pure gold.

but honestly selling stone was stupid idea, he should have taken gold which wasnt that far away from his castle
base trade by minute 16 is mental
