I just started playing the new age of mythology. There's a lot of great things about it. There are a ton of options to adjust the control, but it does lack a few things Starcraft does well (but of course no other RTS controls as well as SC2 to date). For example, you can't take off formation move in Age of Mythology. If you ever dare to select more than one type of unit at once, they will all move at the speed of the slowest one; not only that, they will slow down even more to allow units that belong in the front of the formation to get there sooner; even sometimes to the point of going backwards - if you have melee grouped with archers and tell them to run, the archers will actually go the wrong way, towards the enemy, until the melee are all comfortably past them to safety. As far as I know, there's no way to fix this except to use lots and lots of control groups, which takes more run away commands, etc. But it is definitely a very deep game with lots and lots of units and abilities.
11:00: Age of Mythology is just a different-theme Age of Empires. None of those old micro-RTS games have good QoL. If you want QoL, and you've been spoiled by BAR, your only alternative now will probably be Planetary Annihilation (which I HIGHLY recommend).
Pretty much watch everytbing you put out anyway; but the collab with Grubby was just amazing. Even just another video of him coaching you on ladder would be epic!
Challenge idea: starvation to GM Playing randome, the strategy is to supply block your opponents to death with any units. No outright attacks but you can defend and kill any supply structures/units.
Hey Marc! Cheers for another nice episode! :) I asked in the past, would you consider to put back the original death animation with blood & drag doll physic? Instead the black magical death smoke? As it´s one of the best part for years, when watching your play & all the action that is happening! :) I dunno, it feels so empty & dull with out it & missing out sometimes, onto what disappears & what does not, sometimes? :/ A little bet less entertaining as well, as if some music or sound was missing out? Saying it out in a polite way! :)
Don't play Age of Mythology, it's a very similar game to AOE, except that it's slightly less well made. People play it because of the sentiment from the past, but this game was never anything special. If you play AOE you don't have to play Age of Mythology, it's pretty much the same thing.
Challenge idea - fake stuff. Fake building you cancel, fake tech you don't use immediately, fake drops, hallucinations, fake rushes, etc.
Hallucination to GM. hahaha!
@@knurlgnar24 LSD to GM
@@knurlgnar24that's absolutely genius.... I'm starved for the main channel, would loooooove hallucinations to gm....
Your Destroying GMs with X videos are one of the highlights of my day. Thanks Thermy keep up the good work!!

I second this and feel too self important to simply hit the like button.
W vid loving it already ❤
Reapers uThermal is my favorite uThermal. Also, shaved head makes you look 27. When you have long hair you look 42 😂
Challenge Idea: no attacking the other opponents base other than drops. Defend till you win
Standard Zerg to GM would actually be interesting to see
Imagine byun hadnt fucked up the bag for everyone else by being so good at reaper micro that he got them nerfed twice single handedly.
If you see a bunch of reapers show up, might as well gg, it's game over, man, game over
I present to you the Tumbleweed challenge in BAR uthermal!
+1 attack upgrade started before speed for zerg
GG!
#istoppedthekodswhosayfirst 💀💀💀
So saying 2nd is redundant? Lol
I don't like candy in my ear. Its a sticky situation
creep to GM let's go!
I wonder, would a couple of bunkers stop this?
A simple wall at the front with a bunker solves it.
Not sure if uthermal did this but no hotkey challenge. No location, building, or army. A lot of mouse clicks.
so reactor to gm?
Hey uthermal I love your content. I think it would be funny if you posted a replay.
moar BAR please :)
You already did doom drops. Make doom warps happen.
Ragequitting against this is not unmannered😂
Both of these guys would have solved their issues with a basic wall lol.
