too be fair what did him in was red getting caught and trying to protect him then being promptly abandoned by red when he was rearguarding the retreating red.
@@si2foo fr being the underdog unknow really played it like a pro in my opinion the amount of pressure he put on 2 players with just his acu. Was so gutted to see him get ousted because red pulled his units and acu back rather than just the acu not paying attention to unknow or even communicating with him
Gyle you rock dude! Period! Thank you for your FAF casting. A game I've been playing since release, and growing up with limited international connectivity for most of my life, it was a small community. Love the knowledge of the game, that great vocabulary you use just like a great British cricket commentator. Thanks man!
Don't often see a commander brawl like that one, good fun. Seeing the cybran tele-beam getting swatted away wile running for the hills and crying was just the icing on the cake.
When Tassens shields blinked off I was glued to my seat lol what inopportune timing. Only the AA tank killing 3-5 on the approach and the movement to dodge the falling wrecks saved him. I think the wrecks alone could have taken him out he was so low.
in fairness that chicken deserves a damned medal for how long it survived. by the time it went down he would have been better served walking north into that air-swarm chilling on the ground, wasn't much of a base left.
I'm sitting here in my room with a whiskey and coke, on a Friday night in Southern California. I could go out but no, I'm enjoying something thats so underrated. Forget watching baseball, football, basketball. This is the sport I like to watch. Gyle, you magnificent bastard. You cast this like you should be on ESPN. Thank you for days worth of entertainment that can be enjoyed while I'm either doing housework or literally screaming at my tv "just walk the freaking chicken in!!!" Cheers sir.
Very good replay gyle, nice to have you back! A mate and myself always have the tradition of watching your casts together and we both thoroughly enjoyed this one!
31:04 Just confirming that the Megalith's main guns are Proton Cannons. I always want to say "photon", too. Also, 47:55 I think DaneTime ctrl-K'd himself because TheWreck launched a nuke at him. TheWreck probably launched the nuke in an attempt to slow down the spam without realizing that his teammate was there.
Here to add my sacrifice to the algorithm and lament that fact that the Megalith’s “proton cannons” look nothing like the proton cannons on the Cybran naval vessels (destroyer, cruiser, battleship), but look EVERYTHING like souped-up electron bolters featuring on the Monkeylord and -Loyalists- Bernie Sanders.
As if I weren't going to watch anyway and you go and pull the double whammy by referencing my favourite sci-fi in the title! You know your audience well Mr Gyle! Also you reminded me I always wanted to try out a pair of Mercurian Boomerang Spoons for cutlery after that Red Dwarf episode! A true blast from the past!
I didn't say anything on the last video, but I hope you're doing better after the loss man. Stay strong, your endless positivity is endearing but grieve when you need to, you are not beholden to it.
Just adding to help the algorithm! I actually did get into FAF recently. Only been playing global matches though since my first 1v1 I got paired against a 1000 rated player and got a little dissuaded. I understand it's probably because not many people are on and it was my first so I'll give it another shot soon ;p Just wanted to say thanks for popping in my recommended about 2 years ago and convincing me to get this beautiful game. Can't wait to see what else is in store!
The system has to learn on which skillrank you are. Aka the first ~10 games will be around 1300s as well as against -300, just don't get confused by that it's normal
Not sure it comes from anywhere in particular, it's just Gyle's running joke about full share. It reminds me of a lot of others like that though, like the old "every time you masturbate, god kills a kitten" memes. :)
When a player dies with full share on they make one final magical wish that all of their eco and units go to their allies. The fairies will respect this wish but one of them must sacrifice their life to grant this wish.
loved the cast and the game. would love if you explain a certain unit/experimental sometimes, like what makes it special or why it is built at that moment. also love more of those zoom-ins, where you really see the battle ground from another perspective
The best odds of surviving to the end of the game have to be the stealth scouts. There’s always one of them just sitting somewhere out of the way at the end of the game because no omni stumbles across it
TheWreck lost this for his team - most passive air player I've seen at this level in a while - had the opportunity for total air dominance when sladow suicided, and just sat there instead of capitalizing. That chicken at the end would have gone down fast to gunships.
To be fair, he had only 2 minutes after the telemasor attack, before T3 arty took out his base. WiFi was a lot more proactive with the transport/engie/reclaim, and that bought him the arty and, imo, that arty win the game by overwhelming wrecks APM, busting the shields and large part of his base, ultimately soul crushing.
No, not really. With Sladows suicide you’d expect TheWreck to outproduce Wifi, and eventually in a few minutes take air. At this point of the game Air wasn’t really the problem, because getting Air dominance is not really useful while you’re being overrun on land. DameTime went down 2-3 Minutes after Sladow teled. That is not enough time to gain an air advantage, win air and build such a significant amount of gunships to win the game.
@@TheVoitel Wuth full economic investment you can get a strat out every 4-5 seconds lategame. It takes about 3 minutes to build up a critical mass, but that will only get you one succesful snipe.
@@ineednochannelyoutube5384 Yes, but the problem ist that TheWreck did not have Air dominance at that time. Sure, if the TheWreck had put all his eco into strats he’d need about 4 seconds per strat. And a snipe *might* have worked here. Of course, the other team was well shielded, had SAMs, ASFs and pretty good vision all around the base, so it is not very likely that a snipe would have worked, but it was probably the only chance for the game to potentially turn out otherwise. But this is not what moroseightysix talked about, he claimed that TheWreck had an opportunity for air dominance and could have defended the push using gunships. (By the way: TheWreck *did* build strats against the Ythota!).
@@TheVoitel the thing with 30-40 strats massed is that no matger the shielding, static air defence, and number of ASFs in play it tends to be able to deliver enough damage to kill one ACU. Hence critical mass, you cant really defend it once its underway, except by sending ASFs out to meet it early.
I've subbed to a lot of youtube channels over the years. Eventually all of them stop getting recommended to me. Not yours. I still get recommendations for your videos.
At the end, they wrote "Hi Gyle" to you. You did not even notice! LOL
Classic tunnel vision Gyle.
@Dardi Zuna Hahahahahahaha
Don't have anything to add. Just dropping a comment to boost engagement because algorithm. Cheers, Gyle!
Nice!
All hail the algorithm!
Same

Unknow: *gets badly damaged while building a shield*
Also Unknow: "I think I'll just keep pushing the front line."

this 1 dislike is from the t1 land scout that gyle never mentions.
The second is from the mantis that surely didnt survive.
The third is an eng who was caught by a bomber
Need more Gyle casts!
Amen!
Literally opened youtube just to check if there's a new Gyle cast and here we are. Made my afternoon:)
When Tassens shields blinked off I was glued to my seat lol what inopportune timing. Only the AA tank killing 3-5 on the approach and the movement to dodge the falling wrecks saved him. I think the wrecks alone could have taken him out he was so low.
46:50 you cannot reclaim the chicken to prevent the storm anymore, it was a patch a year ago or so
in fairness that chicken deserves a damned medal for how long it survived.

I'm looking forward to that interview. I know of the project, but it will be interesting to see your take on it.
What is it? Zero-K? Sanctuary? Beyond All Reason?
@@ArawnOfAnnwn sanctuary
I never thought I would see a BSG reference here of all places, but I’m definitely not complaining. Great cast Gyle!
Man this logo intro, i can't get enough of it. It's so cool!
All hail the mighty algorithm!! And Gyle... all hail Gyle too.

I was wondering where this beautiful channel went. UA-cam stole my enjoyment from me for 5 months, now I'm subscribed
Sacrificial comment to the algorithm to tell you that the main guns on a Megalith are indeed proton cannons
Must be a lot of protons
Here to add my sacrifice to the algorithm and lament that fact that the Megalith’s “proton cannons” look nothing like the proton cannons on the Cybran naval vessels (destroyer, cruiser, battleship), but look EVERYTHING like souped-up electron bolters featuring on the Monkeylord and -Loyalists- Bernie Sanders.
@@indoril1207 Damn that's some good attention to detail man. They shoulda had you on the design team X)

Also you reminded me I always wanted to try out a pair of Mercurian Boomerang Spoons for cutlery after that Red Dwarf episode! A true blast from the past!
I just checked my notifications last night to see if I'd missed anything from you. I'm glad to see you're back, but my condolences for your loss.
"Team member two, in baby blue, spitting out labs too" Gyle you have bars!
Epic game !! Well done to playas, thanks for coverage and commentary! Enjoyed it a lot!
Fresh pizza and a cold beer, what do I see? A new video. Starting operation "Cozy Sunday".
I say hell yes bro!
indeed....always more fun watching other people sacrifice themselves and die in these games ....lol
Another wonderful Gyle cast. Godspeed, sir, and thank you!
I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of Gyle pronouncing Sladow like *”slay-* doh”
I still feel offended by that.
Gotta love TheWreck saying "I think I beat Wifi" when TheWreck is dead and Wifi isn't.
Better yet, he was taking t3 arty fire from wifi when he capitulated
Nothing better than a Supreme Commander Epic and work remote from home !
ooga booga for putting this into algorithm, I enjoy every videos too
Keep these coming, Gyle. Absolutely love the commentary, always make me laugh. So many amazing players out there and such a joy to watch.
I didn't say anything on the last video, but I hope you're doing better after the loss man. Stay strong, your endless positivity is endearing but grieve when you need to, you are not beholden to it.
Love these videos. Kept me entertained throughout lockdown. Keep up the good work
Thank you for keeping up the good work!
Eyyy! An upload. Now it's definitely gonna be a good day. :)
Update: Great day so far.
Fantastic game and another excellent cast!! Thanks again Gyle
NOW THIS VID RIGHT HERE IS EPIC
Just adding to help the algorithm!

Cheers for the replays
Great cast as always!
Really getting back into this game because of you
Great cast, thanks Gyle! 🍻
That battle was insanely good👍
🔥💥🔥💥🔥💥🔥💥🔥💥🔥💥🔥💥🔥
43:26 why he coudnt tele back ?
Supreme Commander is epic! A true RTS!
Go on Gyle, love your casts.
Where does the joke with fairies dying to full share come from?
Not sure it comes from anywhere in particular, it's just Gyle's running joke about full share. It reminds me of a lot of others like that though, like the old "every time you masturbate, god kills a kitten" memes. :)

Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance is on sale for 1,99 on Steam!
Just bought a gaming pc just for this game
Hopefully I could get going again after 15 without gaming 😅
After playing a ton of C&C I think this might have taken the spot for my favourite RTS, money WELL spent
@@reasnunown2333 Great to have you back, which processor did you get?
@@HardstyleJinx The scale, diverse factions and focus on strategy instead of APM is what makes this game shine for me.
I don't play Supreme Commander but your footage and commentary are both great to watch!
Finally, someone does a video of SE FA! Only if people still played SE FA UA.
This looks so good! Is it still a thing? Steam says it's from 2011...
Its Old but it aged like wine
Looking forward to the Sanctuary video, I've been a long-time patron of theirs (like I am yours :D)
Also, the crab has Proton Cannons.
Are you sure it's gonna be Sanctuary? Could also be Zero-K, or Beyond All Reason...
@@ArawnOfAnnwn Those aren't made by FAF members. So yes, pretty sure.
@@beetheimmortal Okay. Didn't know that. Thought all the TA successors had a lot of cross pollination / cooperation.
I love supreme commander, looking forward to the new rts game. You do a fantastic job of keeping the supreme commander alive!
Sorry to hear about your family member. May the rip. Hope you all are doing well.
Missed you Gyle! This was a nice one
loved the cast and the game. would love if you explain a certain unit/experimental sometimes, like what makes it special or why it is built at that moment. also love more of those zoom-ins, where you really see the battle ground from another perspective
TheWreck seems like a … pleasant person.
Love your work mate, keep it up.
Good stuff as always!
Hail Splenthor! May my entire skin become slightly more chitinous!
Also @Gyle awesome vid. 100%. Liked. Haven't watched it yet.
Awesome game. Lots of action.
New SupCom / Total Annihilation-like RTS? :O Are you referring to Zero-K? Then again, that released a little while ago, so not quite new.
Or I guess you're referring to Sanctuary, right?
Or maybe Beyond All Reason?...
New RTS by the FAF crew :O What!? I need more details!
Eternal using their ACU like a champ, if only we could all be so bold
42:00, they were targeting the antinuke with those strats I believe...
Welcome back mate
Enjoyed that.
19:26 whats the new RTS which he talks about? Could one help to contribute?
Thank you
can i ask you? how you can get order units going revers? or do automatical?
I love a good Red Dwarf reference 😋
The best odds of surviving to the end of the game have to be the stealth scouts. There’s always one of them just sitting somewhere out of the way at the end of the game because no omni stumbles across it
For the algorithm, and Gyle :)
This game deserves a faithful remaster. The only grand rts I played.
6:05 bombing reclaim, that's low lol
I find it amusingly fitting that the teams are both 1 Aeon, 1 Seraphim, and 3 UEF/Cybran
what is the new rts? I want to lose there as well :P
I think the guns on the crab are called "mega bolters" according to brinkofinstanity
Will you do a Euros Final Prediction Cast?
love this content
This was a great one for experimental carnage!
Amazing content
That was entertaining to watch.
Gyle mentioned a community made supcom succesor? What's it called?
What a great game, super entertaining.

Update EPIC playlist?
"Thats a filthy looking rambo com" haha
how to find matches? is there a discord or is this all forums? have on steam
Download the client at faforever.com
That play from Sladow was… interesting. Is it a common tactic for Cybren (spelling?) to suicide that hard for a backdoor?
How about a team game to predict Euro 2020 final result? Or does the predictive power of giant robot death only work with elections?
I've subbed to a lot of youtube channels over the years. Eventually all of them stop getting recommended to me. Not yours. I still get recommendations for your videos.
Is that a Battlestar Galactica reference i detect....
more casts!!
Love this game, its some years ago that ive played it. Is the online community still active?
Odds of a T1 mech surviving to the end the match == Star Trek Red Shirt
I like the bsg reference :)
I've never seen this game before but the yellow player didn't seem to be doing much? Am I missing something?
Upper team pressured top front quite a lot all the time -> System (yellow) had to invest in it so the front doesn't collapse
21:58 - i am with you
Algrorithm goes brrrrrrrrrrrr
