WEBVTT

01:00.000 --> 01:02.000
You

01:30.000 --> 01:32.000
I

12:30.000 --> 12:44.720
Yo, what's going on guys welcome to the stream hello everybody and welcome to the final day

12:44.720 --> 12:50.880
of the king's gauntlet I am the final day in herra gauntlet shut up herra and we'll be

12:50.880 --> 12:54.560
starting right off with the first set in just a couple minutes but I do want to show you

12:54.560 --> 12:58.320
guys the bracket before I get started here so let's go ahead and pull that up.

12:58.320 --> 13:01.640
Wikipedia the Kings the gauntlets all right and

13:03.480 --> 13:06.240
What's going on guys? Thank you the couple subs in the morning here

13:06.240 --> 13:11.000
And I want to start off with Knopf versus a good of me and here's the bracket guys

13:11.000 --> 13:13.320
So can offer scrubby is the set we didn't do yesterday

13:14.040 --> 13:19.280
Afterwards we're gonna have four sets the final sets of the tournament. This is the loser bracket quarter finals

13:19.280 --> 13:20.640
Knopf versus grubby

13:20.640 --> 13:26.120
It's a walk of three matchup and afterwards of course grubby versus you thermal will happen the loser bracket before that

13:26.120 --> 13:30.200
I would actually play out the Captain Lance versus Pig.

13:30.200 --> 13:31.200
So yeah, this plays out.

13:31.200 --> 13:35.440
But yeah, I'm super down for a co-cast with Death Note here.

13:35.440 --> 13:36.840
And I'm going to try to bring him in.

13:41.960 --> 13:43.840
And we'll get right into it.

13:43.840 --> 13:45.200
All right, so you can start.

13:47.680 --> 13:49.320
We're going to hop right in today.

13:49.320 --> 13:50.920
We're going to hop right in.

13:50.920 --> 13:51.880
No wasting time.

13:56.120 --> 14:01.120
And I'll hop into the casting booth and I'll share my screen.

14:01.120 --> 14:03.120
All right.

14:11.120 --> 14:16.120
All right, Death Note will be the guy casting all this for the first set. It makes a lot of sense. It's a work of three guy.

14:16.120 --> 14:20.120
There's two work of three guys playing, Grubby versus Knoth.

14:20.120 --> 14:31.120
It's funny, the memes about grubby and favoritism is, they've been really funny actually, I don't know who came up with the thinking about in the chat, but that's hilarious.

14:31.120 --> 14:38.120
I just want to say as well, thank you all for the support so far, we are very close to our 9000 sub goal. Let me just show you the goals we do have.

14:38.120 --> 14:47.120
We have a subathon this year confirmed, we have a merch giveaway at some point today, and then of course at 9K, we have the king's gauntlet number two, that's going to be completely set up.

14:47.120 --> 14:50.060
So we're, the number in the chat is not entirely correct.

14:50.060 --> 14:53.360
The number on the screen, 8162 is correct.

14:53.360 --> 14:55.440
And we're gonna have death notes

14:58.360 --> 14:59.800
joining us for the cast very soon.

14:59.800 --> 15:01.840
I think they might have started actually.

15:01.840 --> 15:04.680
Let's go ahead and take a look and see what they're up to.

15:04.680 --> 15:06.280
And then we get their camera set up actually.

15:06.280 --> 15:08.680
That's the number one thing to be doing right now.

15:11.280 --> 15:12.120
All right.

15:14.360 --> 15:15.200
So we can off.

15:15.200 --> 15:28.200
Hello Mr. Dekno, what's going on man? Good morning? Are you sure?

15:28.200 --> 15:34.200
Well for me it's morning. We know every transplant, what is her doing, what is her doing. He's

15:34.200 --> 15:39.200
probably eating, eating, eating. Yeah, I was eating. It's not unusual.

15:39.200 --> 15:47.200
But I said, no, he can't eat now because soon he can watch Grabby.

15:47.200 --> 15:51.200
He mentioned eating and watching Grabby at the same time.

15:51.200 --> 15:54.200
It's like two families eating at the same time.

15:54.200 --> 15:56.200
That is true.

15:56.200 --> 15:59.200
That is true. That is my favorite thing to do.

15:59.200 --> 16:03.200
But in this case, I actually was eating beforehand.

16:03.200 --> 16:06.200
And now you get to watch Grabby after eating.

16:06.200 --> 16:08.760
It's not so bad, but the game one has started by the way

16:08.760 --> 16:11.560
So we're gonna go ahead and hop right in and check it out guys

16:11.560 --> 16:17.920
We have death note here the warcraft 3 human player a pro player of course casting his two fellow warcraft 3 pros

16:18.160 --> 16:20.160
Knopf versus grubby

16:20.220 --> 16:23.400
We've been on with the five gifted subs, so we're gonna be hopping right in here

16:23.840 --> 16:27.520
Knopf looking locked in grubby looking calm as ever and

16:28.280 --> 16:30.280
Let's go ahead hop right in

16:30.280 --> 16:31.280
Let's do it.

16:32.780 --> 16:35.080
So, Dethna, what do you make of this matchup here? Grubby vs Knoth.

16:35.080 --> 16:40.280
Obviously Grubby is the favourite on paper, but in my opinion Knoth has been playing very, very well.

16:40.280 --> 16:45.280
I think he's actually playing a lot more solid and sturdy than his elo suggests.

16:45.280 --> 16:48.280
What do you make of this matchup as someone who's playing against Grubby yourself?

16:50.780 --> 16:59.280
This is hard matchup for Knoth, but he can actually, you know, if you prepare, if you watch, actually, the games he's playing.

16:59.280 --> 17:05.920
Yeah, game time there interesting because you know, I think big was funny key for grab it

17:06.240 --> 17:10.640
He played like his own game and grab it was need to adapt for the peak

17:10.800 --> 17:17.320
Yeah, like I think the course of the people except for at least be like amazing job. Yeah

17:17.320 --> 17:19.320
Yeah, like each man

17:19.360 --> 17:23.560
His father's very unusual and grab the looks was like unprepared

17:24.240 --> 17:27.000
You need to check see if he didn't speak the

17:27.000 --> 17:32.420
Yeah, and sometimes just having one strategy in there that's gonna throw your opponent off

17:32.920 --> 17:37.620
You get a nice quick win and then also your opponent is always worried. What are you gonna do differently?

17:37.620 --> 17:39.440
What are you gonna? You know what are you gonna throw my way?

17:39.440 --> 17:44.380
So one anti meta strategy and then afterwards you could play more or less meta and you'll be completely fine

17:44.380 --> 17:47.120
And your opponent is always gonna be confused as to what you're doing

17:47.480 --> 17:51.960
But listen guys we have game one of grubby versus kinoff is a best of five

17:51.960 --> 17:58.460
It's a loser bracket match. So it's loser is out of the tournament winner moves on to continue climbing the losers bracket

17:58.460 --> 18:02.240
I'm here of course with death now when I learn fix the cameras real quick death now

18:02.240 --> 18:07.420
Why don't you talk about the matchup here Dravidian versus Malay? We've seen both of them before. What do you feel about this matchup?

18:09.080 --> 18:17.360
I don't really know much because I don't play this things myself never both so come really say much

18:17.360 --> 18:23.380
Okay, well you gotta think of something to say because I'm fixing the cameras

18:24.880 --> 18:27.980
Because I Malay, you know, I think

18:29.680 --> 18:31.680
Hope I wouldn't think about this much

18:35.480 --> 18:40.520
God you're hopeless and the cameras don't worry you're hopeless. Holy shit. That's no I even here bro

18:40.520 --> 18:45.760
You're not even a caster you can't feel anything like you're so honest you can just say that

18:45.760 --> 18:57.760
Even if you don't know, Malay is a civilization of which it starts with the letter M, and it ends with the letter Y, and the Malay with Grubby, Grubby's actually a great Warcraft 3 player, plays the Orc, and now he's playing the Malay.

18:57.760 --> 19:01.760
Just talk, bro, just talk, you can talk, you know? You gotta teach these things.

19:01.760 --> 19:04.760
Really? I can talk? Oh my god, thank you, bro.

19:04.760 --> 19:10.760
Well, I just feel like you might need that advice, I don't know.

19:10.760 --> 19:24.760
Okay, I'll talk about the Siv matchup then, we have Knoth playing as the Javidians, he's playing as the Siv before, or as the Siv before, excuse me, he's the only one playing as the Javidians, and he beat Loco with the Habadir plus Elephant Archer combo.

19:24.760 --> 19:33.760
And it looks really solid in that matchup, the Malay can do a bunch of different things, I think Grubby played them more like an Elephant based Siv, like a Boomed Elephant.

19:33.760 --> 19:36.760
We have seen the Ramm rush, the Rammus-Karambits.

19:36.760 --> 19:38.760
Okay, let me get your thoughts on that, Dapnoe,

19:38.760 --> 19:40.760
because we have seen the Ramm strategy a few times now.

19:40.760 --> 19:44.760
What do you make of that strategy, the All-In-Ramm plus unique unit strategy?

19:44.760 --> 19:48.760
Because of how he will play Vay and Crocs, my coach,

19:48.760 --> 19:56.760
you see that he will never play against Flows in this map for sure.

19:56.760 --> 19:58.760
He would be unprepared.

19:58.760 --> 20:07.760
And when he saw, for example, I tried to buy him with like one, two, three buyers.

20:07.760 --> 20:15.760
So he will answer no to buyers with how to counter them, but actually going to make, you know, go mass infantry.

20:15.760 --> 20:26.760
And when he will see this mass infantry with like rams, he would be like actually shocked and start nervous because like how do I counter it?

20:26.760 --> 20:33.320
He would maybe think about his own many times, but his own many times would be significantly

20:33.320 --> 20:34.600
worse than my many times.

20:34.600 --> 20:43.560
I don't think he knows it, but Slavs' hops can even beat his many times, like his champion,

20:43.560 --> 20:46.600
because how good Ruth's infantry is.

20:46.600 --> 20:54.440
So I never played this track before, never a single game, but we had a plan and I tried

20:54.440 --> 20:56.440
try to make a plan, Burk.

20:56.440 --> 20:58.440
Yeah, that's simply fine.

20:58.440 --> 21:00.440
I thought you did well in that Slav matchup.

21:00.440 --> 21:03.440
I was talking more about the infantry plus Rampush in the Castle Age.

21:03.440 --> 21:06.440
I don't know if you saw Mr. Lamert do it.

21:06.440 --> 21:09.440
We saw Laga Momlet do it a couple of times.

21:09.440 --> 21:13.440
They mass the Ramps, they mass the infantry and they go in Castle Age.

21:13.440 --> 21:16.440
I don't know if you've seen that strategy happen before.

21:16.440 --> 21:19.440
Your approach in the Slav game was more like an imperial-age approach.

21:19.440 --> 21:21.440
Do you know what I'm talking about?

21:21.440 --> 21:22.440
Yeah, exactly.

21:22.440 --> 21:29.640
No, no, I'm talking about IMP approach with 37-minute timing with 200 pop.

21:29.640 --> 21:36.600
200 pop, 27-28 minutes, and you know, castle H rams are just like

21:36.600 --> 21:42.440
uncomparable with IMP rams. These received rams, like when I spun them like 10,

21:42.440 --> 21:48.040
like 10, 12, like 15 rams from like three, four workshops which are near your base,

21:48.040 --> 21:50.520
I think it's completely different. Yeah, yeah.

21:50.520 --> 22:04.520
Yeah, that's fair enough. I think the Rammerson-Caston strategy, we saw you thermal, kind of take that strategy out with a nice boom into like Siege Workshop Magnals yesterday, so that strategy might have snagged a couple wins, but it's a little bit kind of, let's say, outdated in this tournament now.

22:04.520 --> 22:09.520
I don't expect to see it anymore, even though Malay can do it. I think Grubby's most likely just going to boom here.

22:09.520 --> 22:17.520
Knoff with the Dravidians, they actually don't get Siege on, but they get something very similar. The armored elephant that can be upgraded to the Siege elephant.

22:17.520 --> 22:21.020
We have a relic stuck in the corner. No, there's a way to get that one

22:21.020 --> 22:23.660
I think it's very rare to get a relic stuck on this map

22:25.000 --> 22:28.740
So I'd like to see potentially some Siege Elephant ramps

22:29.400 --> 22:35.400
From Dravidians at some point this game. Just try to push on Grubby and make things uncomfortable for him

22:35.400 --> 22:39.800
But if this plays out normally, I think we could see an elephant versus elephant archer matchup

22:39.800 --> 22:42.700
Which for any elephant enjoyers in the chat could be a lot of fun

22:43.320 --> 22:45.200
All right, it's gonna be the blue one.

22:45.200 --> 22:47.200
I should be stronger in late game right?

22:47.200 --> 22:51.200
That's a good question. Are Dravidians stronger in late game?

22:51.200 --> 22:56.200
I think probably yes. Malay late game is just okay.

22:56.200 --> 23:00.200
They don't have a great late game. They have some decent options which are nice

23:00.200 --> 23:04.200
and maybe in no gold situation their 200 starsman could be really good.

23:04.200 --> 23:06.200
They cost no gold to get that upgrade.

23:06.200 --> 23:09.200
But I think overall Dravidians should have a better late game yes.

23:09.200 --> 23:16.200
I got some matchup knowledge from my coach in chat.

23:16.200 --> 23:17.200
That's good.

23:17.200 --> 23:19.200
This one or for some other one?

23:19.200 --> 23:20.200
For this one.

23:20.200 --> 23:21.200
For this one.

23:21.200 --> 23:22.200
Nice.

23:22.200 --> 23:23.200
The crocs feeding you some information.

23:23.200 --> 23:25.200
What do you know about the Dravidians?

23:25.200 --> 23:26.200
Let me ask this.

23:26.200 --> 23:29.200
What do you know about the Dravidians?

23:29.200 --> 23:31.200
We know about Dravidians.

23:31.200 --> 23:36.200
They have better late game, but Malaykas better early game.

23:36.200 --> 23:43.560
I'm a like an uh, grand beat around push, like uh, Japanese dot, you know, like, this uh,

23:45.560 --> 23:50.840
taxi tower, taxi tower, yeah, with the siege tower, the taxi, yeah. I don't think we're gonna see that,

23:50.840 --> 23:54.840
we're seeing just a few carambits coming out, but here we go, three town centers for Grubby,

23:54.840 --> 23:59.720
this is the early uh, you know, Malay boom, they go up to the next age pretty quick, so getting the

23:59.720 --> 24:05.960
three TC boom here, uh, is super, super solid, uh, just a couple carambits and some monks that go

24:05.960 --> 24:10.760
go ahead and pick up the relics. Grubby loves to play for relics on this map. It's not mandatory,

24:10.760 --> 24:15.320
but he does it very well. And this is something that you can talk to us about. The 4TC boom

24:15.320 --> 24:20.280
from Knopf. Death Note, you were also one of the people that did this 4TC boom, and I think

24:20.280 --> 24:24.240
you did it very well by the way. I actually think you did a very, very good job booming.

24:24.240 --> 24:29.600
So talk to me about this 4TC boom. Why is it good and why did you go for it?

24:29.600 --> 24:42.600
Because if I done my rush correctly, I'm like 27, 30 minute supply, I mean 27, 20 minute mark, 200 supply, he will die even before this relics can pay off.

24:42.600 --> 24:43.600
Yes.

24:43.600 --> 24:54.600
That was like my plan, because you can boom much faster and your eco would be much better if you don't take relics and you do fast, faster push.

24:54.600 --> 24:59.720
But of course, at later game, if you push fail, you would be in disadvantage because

24:59.720 --> 25:02.640
relics are paying off later.

25:02.640 --> 25:05.000
Yeah, absolutely beautiful.

25:05.000 --> 25:06.000
That's exactly it.

25:06.000 --> 25:09.480
So the 14 CE as Knopf loses his scout in the corner, his first blood of the game going

25:09.480 --> 25:12.600
to Grubby, just chases his scout and kills it.

25:12.600 --> 25:15.960
It's pretty significant because now Grubby can just take the relics pretty easily.

25:15.960 --> 25:17.440
Knopf is doing the e-thrombol.

25:17.440 --> 25:20.080
Oh my god, that's terrible.

25:20.080 --> 25:22.680
Five villagers e-thromboling across the map.

25:22.680 --> 25:23.680
Oh my god.

25:23.680 --> 25:26.880
6-1 as well, this is terrible. That's really gonna hurt his boom.

25:27.760 --> 25:29.040
Oh man.

25:29.600 --> 25:35.240
He needs to fix that fast, we'll keep it on that, but yeah, just exactly as you said, Death Note, the 4GC's,

25:35.560 --> 25:40.360
you get to boom so fast, get a nice little Viliad over your opponent, and then push him before the relics pay off.

25:40.760 --> 25:43.920
If you don't get that push though, and Grubby can just use the relics in late game,

25:44.760 --> 25:48.520
what ends up happening is that Grubby can just use the gold to win, when you have no gold.

25:48.520 --> 25:49.920
Talk to me, Death Note.

25:49.920 --> 25:56.280
I think North DC now would be soon very much idol, idol, idol, idol, idol, because if it's

25:56.280 --> 26:02.160
a minus for villagers, he would, I think, struggle with making his eco, and if he want

26:02.160 --> 26:07.440
to make production in the corner, which he said this year.

26:07.440 --> 26:11.560
I think his eco will be fine, like he's going to be able to make the litters, but he's

26:11.560 --> 26:14.760
not, he's going to be slower to, and he's going to be like slower to everything, because

26:14.760 --> 26:16.160
I mean, this is just terrible.

26:16.160 --> 26:18.400
i mean this is absolutely terrible

26:18.400 --> 26:19.800
uh...

26:19.800 --> 26:20.680
it's like

26:20.680 --> 26:22.520
it's like a village

26:22.520 --> 26:23.880
i think he

26:23.880 --> 26:26.800
was in poor yeah

26:26.800 --> 26:29.000
it's right mister trilliport

26:29.000 --> 26:32.760
it's a fully thermal this is a complete you thermal

26:32.760 --> 26:34.000
he's more

26:34.000 --> 26:38.400
he's more internal internal himself he's not only now fixed it is terrible

26:38.400 --> 26:41.320
the best thing you can do is just a lumber camp here the best thing you can do

26:41.320 --> 26:45.920
yeah

26:45.920 --> 26:48.160
How do you think it means that? Oh my god.

26:48.160 --> 26:51.120
Yeah, it's terrible. And like, you're already the underdog.

26:51.120 --> 26:53.840
You already need to have like a perfect game to even have a chance here.

26:53.840 --> 26:57.840
Looking at 1,000 resources behind, this is a disaster first game from Knopf.

26:57.840 --> 27:01.920
He's no loom. Oh my god, he's no loom chasing a scout in the middle of the map to the Carambits.

27:01.920 --> 27:04.960
Omega loom in the chat. This is terrible. This is terrible for Knopf.

27:04.960 --> 27:05.440
Yeah.

27:06.720 --> 27:07.040
Wow.

27:08.080 --> 27:13.440
Knopf actually floating lumber so much for Poticybomb.

27:13.440 --> 27:16.240
Like 300, 400 wood is unacceptable.

27:16.240 --> 27:18.960
Every 60, fun, fun, fun, fun, fun, fun, fun, fun.

27:18.960 --> 27:22.240
Like 250, 60 farm should just farm farm.

27:22.240 --> 27:23.560
Oh my god, spread the ores.

27:23.560 --> 27:26.440
Death Note, a tear is dropping from my eye.

27:26.440 --> 27:28.960
You, Death Note, telling someone to farm at 60 wood,

27:28.960 --> 27:30.080
this is fantastic.

27:30.080 --> 27:33.320
Death Note, I spent the last three weeks yelling at you

27:33.320 --> 27:34.080
for floating wood.

27:34.080 --> 27:37.600
Now you're telling Knopf to spend his wood, fantastic.

27:37.600 --> 27:39.200
Bro, it's all my boom, you know.

27:39.200 --> 27:42.760
I cannot boom everyone in this tournament, you know it.

27:42.760 --> 27:44.520
And then you just forget to make army.

27:44.520 --> 27:46.800
You try to make some elephants from one castle.

27:46.800 --> 27:48.240
Unfortunate.

27:48.240 --> 27:49.160
Yes.

27:49.160 --> 27:51.840
The Ruby Swords are coming out now.

27:51.840 --> 27:52.960
The Ruby Swords are very good.

27:52.960 --> 27:54.200
They have a nice little charge attack,

27:54.200 --> 27:56.120
so they're very good in melee combat.

27:56.120 --> 27:57.520
I wonder if Grubby knows this.

27:57.520 --> 27:58.560
He's got more Karambits though,

27:58.560 --> 28:00.960
so he could potentially win this one.

28:00.960 --> 28:02.920
Yeah, Grubby will lose these two Karambits

28:02.920 --> 28:05.120
if Knopf turns around and just slaps them.

28:08.520 --> 28:10.800
One monk coming in though for Mr. Grubby.

28:10.800 --> 28:12.800
Oh, Kroff! Kroff!

28:12.800 --> 28:15.800
Nice Kroff! Will snipe that monk?

28:15.800 --> 28:17.800
That's a nice pickup for him.

28:17.800 --> 28:19.800
Yeah, nice.

28:21.800 --> 28:24.800
Knoff a bit of a head on villagers.

28:24.800 --> 28:25.800
Yep.

28:27.800 --> 28:29.800
And they both will have Han-Karth, yes.

28:29.800 --> 28:35.800
I think Russian Han-Karth, when you have food like Knoff does now, it's very good.

28:35.800 --> 28:36.800
Yeah.

28:36.800 --> 28:38.800
Oh, I like what Kroff is doing.

28:38.800 --> 28:45.080
I like what he's doing he's gonna send some villages forward drop a forward castle and play the fast and pure with

28:45.080 --> 28:50.620
Carambits the 80 villagers we've seen this from the Cuban player we've seen this from Captain Lance actually plenty of times

28:51.620 --> 28:58.620
This is a very good strategy from grubby. I like this look bro the timing of hunker like the balls reaching same time together

28:58.880 --> 29:00.880
Yeah

29:02.400 --> 29:04.400
All stream grabbing no please

29:04.400 --> 29:26.400
I don't know the rate, snipe king probably the rate because only this one stable you can't really snipe king.

29:26.400 --> 29:32.180
Yeah, yeah, but the dividends like they don't really have a good rating. So like maybe he's gonna make some elephants

29:32.180 --> 29:36.160
But I don't know this time there so far. It's all grubby to be honest guys

29:36.160 --> 29:39.740
Grubby's had a good early game and he's gonna pass it forward

29:40.380 --> 29:45.260
Yeah for Alex motor sources. No should focus on booming instead like

29:47.880 --> 29:53.000
Yeah, yeah, you don't like this bush at all right, it's just like focus on the boom and get to him to be the priority

29:53.000 --> 29:55.000
Yeah, I feel it.

29:55.000 --> 30:04.000
21 minutes, 20 minutes, 21 minutes, just 40 C, boom, like 150, 140 villagers, and...

30:04.000 --> 30:05.000
It's much better.

30:05.000 --> 30:06.000
Yeah.

30:06.000 --> 30:09.000
For sure, very much agree with that.

30:09.000 --> 30:11.000
Grubby's gonna get his castle up, he's gonna have imp.

30:11.000 --> 30:14.000
I don't like these making skirmishers right away.

30:14.000 --> 30:17.000
I think you can get a lot done with just Karambits and Trebs.

30:17.000 --> 30:20.000
Let's see how Grubby executes this forward strategy.

30:20.000 --> 30:22.000
Normally you want to rush the Trebs out.

30:22.000 --> 30:23.000
out immediately.

30:23.000 --> 30:26.280
He's gonna go for another forward castle.

30:26.280 --> 30:28.920
The Crombereds get extra armor as they advance to the next age.

30:28.920 --> 30:32.360
These guys are actually fully upgraded in terms of armor, of course they're missing

30:32.360 --> 30:33.360
attack weights and elites.

30:33.360 --> 30:35.360
And now they have a siege workshop.

30:35.360 --> 30:39.480
So Crombered was 2 minutes to imp, but death note you said, if he needs to prioritise this

30:39.480 --> 30:42.920
earlier, he's gonna go for like some rangers, would you like to see skirmishers or elephant

30:42.920 --> 30:43.920
archers here?

30:43.920 --> 30:50.040
I don't think skirmishers kinda like will help soon.

30:50.040 --> 30:51.040
Yeah.

30:51.040 --> 30:53.040
scrims too weak right? something more powerful?

30:53.040 --> 30:55.040
yeah

30:58.480 --> 31:00.480
well his ego is too behind

31:01.200 --> 31:03.200
his ego behind is in behind

31:04.480 --> 31:06.480
he need to raid probably but again

31:06.480 --> 31:08.480
grab the full wolf

31:08.480 --> 31:10.480
i'm gonna raid him

31:11.360 --> 31:14.640
and i was trying with like some sneaky stable here with light cap but honestly

31:14.640 --> 31:18.480
i don't i don't really like this i don't think it's the strategy that works for the best with

31:18.480 --> 31:22.080
with Javidians. We have a raid from Leery. Leery, thank you so much for the raid and

31:22.080 --> 31:25.320
welcome to Leery's viewers. It's the first set of the day. You've come at the perfect

31:25.320 --> 31:29.600
time and I'm here casting with Death Note, a work of three professional player.

31:29.600 --> 31:34.000
Try to stop this castle, but Death Note is in a lot of problems now. Four castles on

31:34.000 --> 31:35.000
his face.

31:35.000 --> 31:41.600
Yeah. This castle is gone away from Web of Gold and DC.

31:41.600 --> 31:46.840
Yeah. It's nasty. It's a good castle from Grubby. He's also got the Hill and the Trebs.

31:46.840 --> 31:51.700
We have some elephant archers, but dude you're so right that he's just late to getting the army out. He's late to the end

31:58.240 --> 32:03.340
All right, so who's that town center? I mean, it's not the worst situation ever like not pass some elephant archers on the field

32:03.460 --> 32:08.860
He's not missing. He's missing a fletching on them. He's got very little upgrades. It's okay

32:09.360 --> 32:12.740
But he would love to have a little bit more time just to try to set up a defense

32:12.740 --> 32:15.660
He's also missing a ton of upgrades so he needs to get those in as fast as possible

32:16.840 --> 32:41.680
I see there's a unit that can often go for here that can really help to defend it's the

32:41.680 --> 32:42.680
bomber cannons.

32:42.680 --> 32:44.680
Have you made any Bombercans?

32:44.680 --> 32:46.680
I think a lot of your Sivs don't have it

32:46.680 --> 32:48.680
like Wade doesn't have it, etc.

32:48.680 --> 32:51.680
Yeah, yeah, I am making it with Georgia.

32:51.680 --> 32:56.680
Yeah, like Fireball in Terran, like Selaan.

32:56.680 --> 32:59.680
But honestly, I don't know, my Siege I feel

32:59.680 --> 33:03.680
often weaker than my opponents.

33:03.680 --> 33:05.680
Opponents just better Siege?

33:05.680 --> 33:07.680
Yeah, fair enough.

33:07.680 --> 33:09.680
It's not like with the Siege, maybe

33:09.680 --> 33:11.680
they just have more experience with Siege.

33:11.680 --> 33:13.680
Yeah, yeah

33:13.680 --> 33:15.680
They are hard to use to be fair, so

33:16.680 --> 33:21.080
If you ever feel like you're getting pushed with some seeds and your siege on defense not doing the job

33:21.840 --> 33:26.640
Be a little micro issue. I know but let's just you know, you can't chase these crampons around

33:28.240 --> 33:32.120
When I make a soul my castle dying over all always so easy

33:32.120 --> 33:36.780
No, when my bones make a castle to try to siege it it feels like so hard to kill

33:37.720 --> 33:40.320
Hmm, I actually know what you're talking about

33:40.320 --> 33:52.320
about. But it's okay because nobody told you to make siege. Death Note, right? The thing

33:52.320 --> 33:56.440
I love about Death Note is that you'll do what you know how to do, you'll do very well.

33:56.440 --> 34:00.320
But then the thing that you don't know to do, you just never do it and you'll be like,

34:00.320 --> 34:07.320
yeah, nobody told me to make army after the boom, so I'm just 180 villagers. I thought

34:07.320 --> 34:10.320
I thought you were playing a booming game, no?

34:10.320 --> 34:12.320
Boom, boom.

34:12.320 --> 34:15.320
You have like 20 minutes, 25 minutes, we just boom,

34:15.320 --> 34:18.320
and then the answer in 25 minutes mark

34:18.320 --> 34:20.320
cause more resources to win the game, huh?

34:20.320 --> 34:22.320
How about this one?

34:22.320 --> 34:26.320
Okay, in a boom game, do you think you'd be grubby?

34:26.320 --> 34:27.320
Boom versus boom.

34:27.320 --> 34:28.320
Yeah, 100%.

34:28.320 --> 34:29.320
Of course.

34:29.320 --> 34:30.320
You heard it in your first game.

34:30.320 --> 34:35.320
Not 100, not 100, but most likely.

34:35.320 --> 34:36.320
Okay, damn, that's crazy.

34:36.320 --> 34:38.160
Crazy, that's good confidence.

34:38.160 --> 34:40.560
The best boom in the game, Mr. Death Note.

34:40.560 --> 34:42.680
Death Note, you versus me, boom game.

34:42.680 --> 34:43.520
Who wins?

34:44.520 --> 34:45.360
You.

34:45.360 --> 34:46.200
Yeah.

34:46.200 --> 34:48.600
All right, there's a limit to the delusion there.

34:48.600 --> 34:50.080
At least that's good, it's good.

34:50.080 --> 34:51.680
It's just confidence, you know?

34:53.000 --> 34:54.720
Castle's getting trebbed here, back to our game.

34:54.720 --> 34:55.560
I'm going for them.

34:55.560 --> 34:56.560
I'm gonna shoot them, okay?

34:56.560 --> 34:58.960
Yeah, exactly, exactly, fair enough.

34:58.960 --> 34:59.800
I'm just checking, you know.

34:59.800 --> 35:00.640
Are you delusional?

35:00.640 --> 35:01.920
No, just confident, cool.

35:04.120 --> 35:05.280
Grubby is teaching the castle,

35:05.280 --> 35:10.040
getting siege engineers he's castling more of the map often as you can see the

35:10.040 --> 35:13.600
score earlier was kind of close but now it's completely snowballed the

35:13.600 --> 35:18.360
skirmishers was a perfect choice from grubby I question a little bit I thought

35:18.360 --> 35:20.960
it was a little early but in the end I think it just worked out you got full

35:20.960 --> 35:24.320
upgrades on the skirmish minus the armor but the other archers still missing

35:24.320 --> 35:27.800
some upgrades chemistry now coming in armor is missing I think husbandry is

35:27.800 --> 35:33.600
missing so I don't know not not the best unit right now into the skirmishers

35:35.280 --> 35:43.280
We have Loco in the chat, Loco saying, why don't they mass knights and only knights?

35:43.280 --> 35:48.880
Uh, Loco, I actually loved your approach with poles, I think it's such a good civilization.

35:48.880 --> 35:51.120
I just wish you knew how to make more than one unit.

35:51.120 --> 35:54.680
If you made even like a secondary unit, I think you would have a dangerous player on

35:54.680 --> 35:59.000
this map, but maybe in the next tournament you'll find another unit to play.

35:59.000 --> 36:03.640
Um, but Loco, I actually think the poles are very underrated here and, down this is a bit

36:03.640 --> 36:07.520
one side of the guys, did you hear the chat? Not much to really commentate, you know, me

36:07.520 --> 36:11.240
and DeathBall were talking, Knoff was a bit, you know, late in PureLage and then he just

36:11.240 --> 36:15.640
got snowballed and you're spot on, Mr. DeathBall, if you're going to go for TTC, give up the

36:15.640 --> 36:19.280
relics, you have to get the ability, you just have to be further ahead than your opponent.

36:19.280 --> 36:26.560
Yes, yes, you should like very, I like to play for TTC and my plan, as I said, was against

36:26.560 --> 36:34.560
I'm not that confident that I could take Relics and boom at the same time against Grabby because

36:34.560 --> 36:42.560
Grabby's MMR is higher. Like, in his Elo, players contest in Relics more often than in my Elo,

36:42.560 --> 36:52.560
so he, for sure, more experienced with Relic contest than me. So, I felt like this boom is much better than

36:52.560 --> 36:57.560
try to contest Relix because I will kill him early if I can.

36:57.560 --> 37:01.560
Yeah, I actually completely understand that and completely agree with that as well.

37:01.560 --> 37:06.560
Like if you're the underdog trying to do like a different strategy, something that gives you a timing,

37:06.560 --> 37:08.560
I feel like that's the best way to go about it.

37:08.560 --> 37:12.560
And I think in your game, Death Note against Grave, I don't know if you remember it with the Slabs.

37:12.560 --> 37:18.560
You actually had a really good timing. You didn't go for it really, but you did try and I can see like a win potential.

37:18.560 --> 37:24.560
Here from Knop, I saw something similar, but the boom was really weak, especially with the e-thermoling of seven villagers.

37:24.560 --> 37:26.560
That was definitely not the best situation.

37:26.560 --> 37:30.560
Yeah, if you need to make lumber mill, they make some cardio, you know?

37:30.560 --> 37:33.560
It's only when cardio is in my phone, you know?

37:33.560 --> 37:42.560
It's like 21km on one side, 21km on the other side.

37:42.560 --> 37:44.560
That's good.

37:44.560 --> 37:46.560
Like, one cardio.

37:46.560 --> 37:50.560
By the way, Knoff is taking us to Arena next, by the way.

37:50.560 --> 37:55.560
So he is looking to really mix things up, bringing us to Arena instead of Arabia,

37:55.560 --> 37:58.560
which makes a lot of sense. I think Arabia is going to be a hard match for Knoff.

37:58.560 --> 38:04.560
Arena though, Grubby, is pretty good on it, so let's see what Knoff can do there.

38:04.560 --> 38:11.560
And I heard that Grubby actually had vision on me when I go in my rush

38:11.560 --> 38:19.420
crash just because he also sent his views across with miss click. If not this, actually

38:19.420 --> 38:27.800
game could be. Game could be tricky but he likes making outpours in the middle of the

38:27.800 --> 38:33.080
map though and that's something he picked up quite well so honestly I think Grobby would

38:33.080 --> 38:39.240
have had vision somewhat either way. I don't know, it's tough to say though. It is tough

38:39.240 --> 38:43.040
I'm so sad that I make like three by yards, but but by yards

38:43.560 --> 38:45.720
Like was weaker than come off

38:47.880 --> 38:53.880
Yeah, let's we gotta get the hops in I think you had the right strategy like few boyers and then like how seeds you just missed the

38:53.880 --> 38:55.880
chance to go for it, I think

38:57.480 --> 38:59.880
They're gonna set the next game, but I don't really have the code here

39:09.240 --> 39:20.880
Alright, here we go, they're in the lobby now, it's going to be Irina.

39:20.880 --> 39:23.320
Grubby is off in there, so Grubby is taking a little bit of a break.

39:23.320 --> 39:24.320
It's going to be Irina next.

39:24.320 --> 39:27.920
I think it's time to thank the people for coming in here guys.

39:27.920 --> 39:29.440
Welcome everyone watching on Twitch and YouTube.

39:29.440 --> 39:32.760
I hope you guys are all having a good time on the stream so far.

39:32.760 --> 39:35.880
And I hope you guys are enjoying the final day of the Kings Gauntlet.

39:35.880 --> 39:37.680
It's been such a banger event so far.

39:37.680 --> 39:41.760
Of course, the highlights are going to be made as YouTube videos, so you guys can check some of those out later on

39:42.560 --> 39:44.560
You know for many many months and years to come

39:45.480 --> 39:50.600
But here we are with the final day and there's the first set can offers is grubby. Actually, this is an extra set today

39:50.600 --> 39:52.440
This is not one of the main ones

39:52.440 --> 39:59.000
The set was supposed to be played yesterday. So yeah, this is just a little appetizer for what's to come today with the final final day

39:59.000 --> 40:01.600
And all the best four players of the events

40:02.280 --> 40:04.720
That's not how do you enjoy this event by the way for yourself?

40:04.720 --> 40:08.720
Do you have a good time with the ladder race? Do you have a good time with the main event?

40:08.720 --> 40:15.720
Yeah, I really enjoyed it. Today I played Adrien Paris 2, you know, for like, after work.

40:15.720 --> 40:20.720
If I play some work for 2, how about then I start to play Adrien Paris 2.

40:20.720 --> 40:26.720
I make a title, you know, that brought to KMMR and that King's Lives Matters, you know.

40:26.720 --> 40:28.720
you know, hashtag.

40:28.720 --> 40:32.720
Shot was hilarious, man, if you saw this.

40:32.720 --> 40:35.720
Hashtag and sorry, spam it.

40:35.720 --> 40:38.720
It was some fun time, you know.

40:38.720 --> 40:41.720
Hashtag Kings Lives Matters.

40:41.720 --> 40:44.720
Dude, the clip of you sending your king to the center is,

40:44.720 --> 40:48.720
legitimately, my favorite clip of Age of Empires 2 ever.

40:48.720 --> 40:49.720
Like, I watch it every night.

40:49.720 --> 40:51.720
Every night I watch on my phone, I'm just laughing.

40:51.720 --> 40:54.720
It's so funny.

40:54.720 --> 41:01.720
I just wish we had your perspective, like you were streaming it, I'm not sure if you were streaming it.

41:01.720 --> 41:03.720
No, I didn't.

41:03.720 --> 41:05.720
What a shame, what a shame.

41:05.720 --> 41:10.720
It's on my YouTube, it's on my YouTube, it's a 6 minute video and it's really funny, trust me.

41:10.720 --> 41:15.720
It's on my YouTube, it's one of the last videos about the king, you can't miss it.

41:15.720 --> 41:20.720
Which of the aspects from Knopf I think it would be Turks, right?

41:20.720 --> 41:27.720
I think it would be Poulx.

41:27.720 --> 41:34.720
Give me one second.

41:34.720 --> 41:40.720
Yeah, so for Knopf, I think probably Turks, yeah, you spot on with that, so I was just

41:40.720 --> 41:42.720
doing some admin work on the side.

41:42.720 --> 41:44.720
Yeah, I think Turks for Knopf could be good.

41:44.720 --> 41:47.720
I think Rubby has the Burgundians that he likes a lot.

41:47.720 --> 41:52.420
I don't think he wouldn't play the Burgundians, but he might have to actually play

41:52.860 --> 41:55.800
Two civilizations on arena potentially if he doesn't win this next one

41:55.800 --> 41:59.240
So I think you should start with what he's comfortable with with the Burgundians

41:59.240 --> 42:05.320
I also think he might try the Gerjaris to counter pick the Turks. We talked about this last time

42:05.320 --> 42:09.080
I was co-gassing with Grubby. I don't know if the chat remembers. I was co-gassing with Grubby

42:09.080 --> 42:13.440
I was telling him about how the Gerjaris are hard-counting the Turks and that is a good matchup

42:13.440 --> 42:19.880
played in pro play and Knoff is known for the Turks so maybe Grebi considers the

42:19.880 --> 42:22.160
Gujarats I don't know if he's practiced them at all but it could be

42:22.160 --> 42:25.200
something to go for his other sieve on arena could be something like the

42:25.200 --> 42:28.080
Hindustani he also played a lot of Hindustani so that could be interesting

42:28.080 --> 42:33.320
as well and let's see how that plays out

42:43.440 --> 42:59.240
It's the finals of the semis, let me show the bracket real quick while we wait for them

42:59.240 --> 43:00.240
to get started.

43:00.240 --> 43:02.520
They're in the lobby but they're just kind of chilling about.

43:02.520 --> 43:06.720
Take a look at the bracket guys, you have Knopf vs Grubby, again this is a matchup that

43:06.720 --> 43:10.440
should have been played yesterday, it was delayed till today, no problem.

43:10.440 --> 43:13.760
We'll play it today, and then we have the finals date, the top four, we're going to have

43:13.760 --> 43:18.520
Uthermo versus the winner of Grubby and Knopf, and then we're going to have the Catmulans

43:18.520 --> 43:23.000
and Pig matchup as well, and then the Loserbracke final, and then the Grand Final as well.

43:23.000 --> 43:26.160
Actually, the next set, by the way, so it's going to be Grubby and Knopf now, the next

43:26.160 --> 43:29.640
set is going to be Catmulans, Pig to be played.

43:29.640 --> 43:34.240
So yeah, quite some interesting matchups to come today, and I'm actually really excited.

43:34.240 --> 43:38.560
This is the top four, and it's the best set of the entire event, pretty much.

43:38.560 --> 43:44.400
I think the best is actually can be Bengalis for Knopf to be the grabby. It's one of the

43:46.560 --> 43:51.440
best castle drop with Bengalis can be stronger than this turks actually.

43:51.440 --> 43:54.720
Oh you like the Bengalis? So what do you know about the Bengali castle drop? That's interesting.

43:54.720 --> 43:56.800
We haven't seen it at all by the way. We haven't seen it at all.

43:58.000 --> 44:03.920
I saw Viper teach a local with Bengalis castle drop. Oh yeah we did see that.

44:03.920 --> 44:12.920
Yeah, his time was pretty good. I think the grabby could struggle against Bengali's castle drop with like very good timing.

44:12.920 --> 44:33.480
Maybe Portuguese also.

44:33.480 --> 44:41.720
I think with Portuguese and with Bindaliz Klovo have better chance than with Turks.

44:41.720 --> 44:42.720
Do you think so?

44:42.720 --> 44:51.780
I'm not sure about that actually. I think I think Turks are slightly better because I think Turks go to a better late game comp

44:51.780 --> 44:53.700
I think Portuguese are not bad

44:53.700 --> 44:59.320
But if you don't play Portuguese ordinance can be a bit tricky to use and I guess there are blessed bomber cannons

44:59.320 --> 45:03.620
Okay, but I think Turks is actually more powerful. You have higher HP cannons

45:03.620 --> 45:06.940
You have a heavy cab archer that you can play you have heavy camel

45:06.940 --> 45:12.660
You have a lot of options that Portuguese don't get access to so I feel like if you're not comfortable with Portuguese

45:12.660 --> 45:15.060
I think just going turks going your comfort pick is probably better

45:16.180 --> 45:22.420
But I can see many since working. I mean, you don't know if Kroff has maybe prepared something as well something secret to shut a snag a win

45:22.420 --> 45:45.240
I think we still seem to be AFK guys, so we're just going to sit and chill, no problem.

45:45.240 --> 45:49.540
First match of the day, I don't mind taking our time, getting into it, commenting on the

45:49.540 --> 45:55.540
I know now go donation from each rancid game I played.

45:55.540 --> 45:59.540
They all count as, you know...

45:59.540 --> 46:01.540
Wait, what happened?

46:01.540 --> 46:12.540
Yeah, I got now some donal with about one each rank game ever played in H&P Store, you know, for this conference.

46:12.540 --> 46:15.540
I don't understand. You're getting donations from the chat?

46:15.540 --> 46:20.540
No, yeah. From each ranked game I played in this tournament.

46:20.540 --> 46:21.540
Oh, okay.

46:21.540 --> 46:22.540
Oh, fantastic.

46:22.540 --> 46:24.540
I'm not in there for prepared, yeah.

46:24.540 --> 46:26.540
Yeah, that's fantastic.

46:26.540 --> 46:32.540
So I played a lot of games, actually.

46:32.540 --> 46:35.540
Guys, we're not going to disqualify Grubby.

46:35.540 --> 46:36.540
He's already here.

46:36.540 --> 46:38.540
Is that the same situation?

46:38.540 --> 46:42.540
Of course you're not going to deal with my Grubby, man.

46:42.540 --> 46:45.540
Who would think about it?

46:45.540 --> 46:53.980
I know if Grady, today would not appear as a trophy, you know, for 20 minutes, you would

46:53.980 --> 47:02.220
move the match next day, you would move the next week, next year, you know, to let your

47:02.220 --> 47:05.220
favorite player play whatever he wants.

47:05.220 --> 47:08.220
A trophy for 20 minutes?

47:08.220 --> 47:14.460
Teclus, Teclus, Teclus, and then every time when you see a Troclus, you get the Clus.

47:14.460 --> 47:17.660
That is so not true.

47:17.660 --> 47:21.940
I actually gave Hrock more than 20, I gave him like 20, 22 minutes.

47:21.940 --> 47:26.900
21, 21 and 1 minute and a second more.

47:26.900 --> 47:30.220
Hrock in the chat saying true by the way.

47:30.220 --> 47:34.660
Guys, listen, Hrock, I wanted to show up, I gave him a lot of time.

47:34.660 --> 47:36.260
It is what it is that happened.

47:36.260 --> 47:37.260
It's all good.

47:37.260 --> 47:42.220
But actually, Grubby's taking a lot of time right now, and by the way, when I took five minutes,

47:42.220 --> 47:46.460
guys, let me tell you a story. When I took five minutes in Grubby's tournament in the finals,

47:46.460 --> 47:50.540
literally, it was five minutes. I had to go get another snack or something, I don't even remember.

47:51.180 --> 47:56.060
Grubby's like, oh, Harry's taking a lot of time. Grubby's been gone for like a thousand years right

47:56.060 --> 48:02.780
now. He's been gone for like 10 minutes. So I just want to say, I just want to say Grubby is,

48:02.780 --> 48:07.900
He's complaining when I do it, but he's doing it as well.

48:07.900 --> 48:12.940
He's got a thousand meals, exactly.

48:12.940 --> 48:21.020
His wife is sick, shout out to his wife, he should take care of her man, he should take

48:21.020 --> 48:22.020
care of her.

48:22.020 --> 48:25.140
The term is important, but the wife's more important.

48:25.140 --> 48:28.260
Ethna, are you married?

48:28.260 --> 48:30.260
You married to the game?

48:30.260 --> 48:33.500
No, I'm not not married. Yeah

48:34.380 --> 48:42.700
You know, it's a day guy for chat asked me for challenge. Okay to beat you or grubby for 10k bucks

48:44.180 --> 48:48.760
In age of Empire stew. Yeah, it's between me or grubby

48:49.500 --> 48:55.740
Yeah, I thought this is a bit, you know, kind of tricky. I said to to beat, you know, you I

48:55.740 --> 49:02.580
I probably need like at least at least like two years of like practicing like almost every day

49:02.580 --> 49:04.580
So I can

49:07.700 --> 49:13.160
Let me just let me just answer this one for you. You need two lifetimes to be in a dream parts to you

49:13.160 --> 49:16.700
You need I should yeah, 100% yes. Yes. Yes

49:17.460 --> 49:19.660
How about you know a little test takes

49:25.740 --> 49:27.740
It's not perfect, not for me.

49:27.740 --> 49:29.740
It's not gonna help. It won't help.

49:30.740 --> 49:32.740
Why, why it doesn't help? Why?

49:32.740 --> 49:34.740
Because it's you playing.

49:36.740 --> 49:37.740
Huh?

49:37.740 --> 49:39.740
If it's you playing, it's a disaster.

49:39.740 --> 49:41.740
You would just not make army.

49:43.740 --> 49:46.740
Bro, you saw my progress for three weeks.

49:46.740 --> 49:48.740
Can you measure my progress for two years?

49:49.740 --> 49:52.740
You would be so scared, you don't even...

49:52.740 --> 49:54.740
You wanna doge me, you know?

49:54.740 --> 49:57.980
You don't even know what would even happen.

49:57.980 --> 50:01.220
Maybe next 4K in my play, you know, 4K.

50:01.220 --> 50:04.500
You see, like, you 3K, other players, you know,

50:04.500 --> 50:06.500
2.7, and me 4K.

50:06.500 --> 50:10.860
And everything for every tournament,

50:10.860 --> 50:13.700
starting with the please, no, there's not in my bracket,

50:13.700 --> 50:14.700
please.

50:14.700 --> 50:16.820
How about that?

50:18.660 --> 50:21.140
That's in my bracket, I just can't win.

50:22.340 --> 50:23.180
Yes.

50:24.740 --> 50:27.780
Where is your confidence now then bro?

50:27.780 --> 50:30.660
So do it bro, do it. Go play.

50:30.660 --> 50:32.660
Get the 4k.

50:32.660 --> 50:38.020
The only 4k you might get too is 4,000 villagers judging by how you're booming.

50:38.020 --> 50:40.500
4,000 villagers zero army.

50:40.500 --> 50:47.540
2,000 villagers, imagine if I can make 4,000 villagers in 200 pop game.

50:47.540 --> 50:49.540
Actually it's possible by the way.

50:49.540 --> 50:55.340
How can you get to 4,000 villagers in a 200-pop game? There's two ways to do it.

50:55.340 --> 50:56.940
Convert. Convert.

50:56.940 --> 50:59.340
Convert, that's one. What's the other way?

51:10.740 --> 51:14.740
I'll tell you because there's no way to guess. You use Bengalis.

51:14.740 --> 51:21.340
So Bengalis have a thing where every time you age up to the next age, you get two villagers for free per TC.

51:21.340 --> 51:26.140
So in theory, if you make 2000 town centers, you can get 4000 villagers when you go to the end.

51:26.140 --> 51:28.640
Oh, thank you.

51:31.840 --> 51:34.340
You just need 2000 town centers, bro. It's not too hard.

51:34.340 --> 51:41.340
No. I think it sounds easy, but we need like some big map, you know.

51:41.340 --> 51:44.340
Yeah, yeah. We need the map that you played on the first test.

51:44.740 --> 51:57.740
Even in that map, 2K to TC would not fit. I think we need some map makers, you know.

51:57.740 --> 52:05.740
Yeah, a giga map project to 2000 TC, boom. But guys, we're just about ready to get started here,

52:05.740 --> 52:09.740
grab these back in this chair and you should be zoning in on this next game.

52:09.740 --> 52:14.340
next game. It's going to be Knoff's home map, Knoff is of course down 1-0. He had a rough

52:14.340 --> 52:19.780
first game to be honest. Obviously, we don't really expect Knoff to have a good matchup

52:19.780 --> 52:24.820
into Grubby in terms of player Elos, but I feel like that first game, Knoff just didn't

52:24.820 --> 52:29.220
really have a good approach to the game. I think the strategy was okay, but you're thermally

52:29.220 --> 52:34.060
villagers, being a little slow to get the Elton archers, a little slow to the upgrades.

52:34.060 --> 52:38.100
It was not really a recipe for a winning match against Grubby. So I think in this next game

52:38.100 --> 52:41.720
what I want to see is I want to see Knopf tighten up on the basics, get a really good

52:41.720 --> 52:46.620
start in and then just turbo out the military as fast as he possibly can. It's kind of what

52:46.620 --> 52:51.180
I feel gives Knopf the best chances to win against Grubby.

52:51.180 --> 52:59.220
Yeah. What do you think about my Georgia's St. Graham Patrol with Lancers? Did you enjoy

52:59.220 --> 53:00.220
it?

53:00.220 --> 53:05.140
I think it's very good actually. I think it's very good and I think if you had done the

53:05.140 --> 53:09.580
same style boom but with a different siv instead of a church something like the

53:09.580 --> 53:12.660
persians and you went for Sivar did the same thing I think you could have

53:12.660 --> 53:16.220
actually been a very dangerous player I think you were held back by trying to

53:16.220 --> 53:21.580
play churches which are a bit weaker of a siv despite the lancers being strong

53:21.900 --> 53:27.620
I see by the way we're seeing a very very nice match up here it's gonna be the

53:27.620 --> 53:31.700
Burgundians versus the Turks the two civilizations that these players main

53:31.700 --> 53:34.500
they are not messing around they're just gonna go for their favorite

53:34.500 --> 53:39.140
civilizations for this next game here until they both really need this win but

53:39.140 --> 53:46.020
especially Knoth needs this win. Yeah let's go Mr Knoth. Let's go Knoth. Of course two

53:46.020 --> 53:50.460
Warcraft 3 players here, Grubby versus Knoth. It's gonna be Burgundians for Grubby

53:50.460 --> 53:54.840
and Turks for Knoth. Let's go ahead and fix the cameras here and Dethna, why don't you

53:54.840 --> 54:00.700
talk about the SIVs, you talk about anything while I fix the cameras? Burgundians have way

54:00.700 --> 54:08.060
better boom. Tourists have like way faster you know potential especially I think Knopf will

54:08.860 --> 54:16.380
castle drop him and Grady knows that he will castle drop him Grady will probably try to

54:16.380 --> 54:23.820
prevent castle drop he will make a scout like three four five scouts for med control so Knopf

54:23.820 --> 54:35.660
must put his castle safe or make few spearmen to counter you know as I beat as

54:35.660 --> 54:41.860
Sincsin did against me because I make five scouts to prevent his castle drop

54:41.860 --> 54:47.100
into me yeah actually what I'd like to say here on that note I'd like to see

54:47.100 --> 54:50.500
Knoth actually go for the forward castle because a lot of times Knoth in

54:50.500 --> 54:54.300
this term has just went for a defensive castle with turks but I think there's

54:54.300 --> 54:58.360
one of two strategies that could work the fast imp from turks which we haven't

54:58.360 --> 55:02.360
seen at all yet by the way the fast imperial from turks is a very strong

55:02.360 --> 55:05.880
strategy nobody's really gone for it so that's one approach that could be good

55:05.880 --> 55:10.000
if you practice the offline otherwise maybe even just a forward castle from

55:10.000 --> 55:13.240
the start forward castle bring a few spears like you said death note so you

55:13.240 --> 55:16.600
don't die to the scout rush from grubby I think grubby's Burgundians is actually

55:16.600 --> 55:22.020
very predictable Siv, which I think is the only reason I don't really like it that much

55:22.020 --> 55:23.020
for him.

55:23.020 --> 55:26.100
He's done great with it so far, but it has the weakness that it is very predictable,

55:26.100 --> 55:30.100
and so I've counted strategy like a forward castle with some spears can be very very powerful

55:30.100 --> 55:33.100
into it.

55:33.100 --> 55:44.980
Alright, we'll talk about the Burgundians here, Grubby, going for an early Bid-X, and

55:44.980 --> 55:48.660
It is a chicken map, so we could see them funnel some chickens or just go ahead and mill them.

55:49.460 --> 55:53.180
Generally speaking, the brigandians want to play Light Cab and control the relics in the center.

55:53.180 --> 55:56.900
That's the main strategy, whereas Turks are likely to play towards Gunpowder.

55:56.900 --> 55:59.420
Turks with an on paper better late game.

56:00.260 --> 56:03.860
Assuming they have the gold to fuel their very, very strong gold compositions.

56:04.300 --> 56:07.100
Heavy cab archers, we've seen how strong they could be in Sing Sing's hands.

56:07.420 --> 56:10.260
Knopf sends to play towards the elite Janissary, but he does that pretty well.

56:11.220 --> 56:12.340
That's of course game two.

56:12.340 --> 56:17.260
But it's late game, it's all about who takes relics, right?

56:17.260 --> 56:24.580
Because again, if Gravi takes all relics and his farm will generate gold, his late game

56:24.580 --> 56:26.940
would be actually much better, right?

56:26.940 --> 56:30.340
He would have a lot of gold from relics and farms.

56:30.340 --> 56:35.340
Yeah, relics are really important and definitely, especially with the Burgundian vineyards

56:35.340 --> 56:40.220
getting extra relics from just farming as the Burgundians, those are very important.

56:40.220 --> 56:43.220
Look how much gold and stone is in the center here.

56:43.220 --> 56:44.220
Like, take a look at this.

56:44.220 --> 56:49.740
One grubby stone, one grubby gold, there's one Knopf stone, one Knopf gold, two neutral

56:49.740 --> 56:52.820
stones and a neutral gold, and actually two neutral golds.

56:52.820 --> 56:56.220
So if Knopf takes the map, he gets a lot, right?

56:56.220 --> 57:01.700
Yeah, I like how he actually spawns in all of the surfaces here in this map.

57:01.700 --> 57:02.700
Yeah.

57:02.700 --> 57:06.340
It's a lot of fighting in the center, basically.

57:06.340 --> 57:09.740
I think whoever takes the center might be better off than the guy who gets the relics.

57:09.740 --> 57:11.580
So that's kind of my take on it.

57:11.580 --> 57:14.740
Of course, sometimes some player can get both,

57:14.740 --> 57:16.740
they can get all the relics, and they can get also

57:16.740 --> 57:19.020
the center control, in which case, all the golden stones

57:19.020 --> 57:19.520
towards them.

57:19.520 --> 57:21.140
But it's worth keeping in mind.

57:31.980 --> 57:36.460
So rather than grabbing, go to Barrier's not for chickens.

57:36.460 --> 57:36.960
Oh.

57:36.960 --> 57:38.660
You said a fucking meat?

57:38.660 --> 57:40.660
Yeah, I see it.

57:40.660 --> 57:42.660
He's going to funnel the chickens.

57:42.660 --> 57:44.660
It's a very weird mechanic.

57:44.660 --> 57:47.660
It's not one that I like, but it's pretty interesting.

57:47.660 --> 57:51.660
I thought Crooks was explaining to me this mechanics.

57:51.660 --> 57:54.660
This gates actually, this mechanics.

57:54.660 --> 57:57.660
Yeah, Greb is not making a gate actually, which is interesting.

57:57.660 --> 57:59.660
I guess you might not need one.

57:59.660 --> 58:01.660
But the main idea is you make a wall through the chickens,

58:01.660 --> 58:04.660
and then you just hope that they go from one side to the other.

58:04.660 --> 58:06.660
And then as they go from one side to the other,

58:06.660 --> 58:09.780
through the town center and then you can just eat them without making a meal so

58:10.820 --> 58:14.980
as you can see this one's getting funneled right in towards the town center and this guy's gonna

58:14.980 --> 58:20.980
run straight through as well at some point. Yeah the chicken part is pretty interesting. Go ahead.

58:21.700 --> 58:29.380
I honestly think meal would be much better for grand people. Like the thing is the meal costs 100

58:29.380 --> 58:34.100
wood. These pallet size costs maybe like one wood each because you just delete them afterwards. It's

58:34.100 --> 58:39.940
like 17 wood versus 100 wood. Actually I think the final is more efficient overall, despite it

58:39.940 --> 58:47.700
looking a little strange. He already spent build like time and like that. But otherwise the builds

58:47.700 --> 58:53.860
would walk there, that's also build time, and you go to the chickens. Oh second lumber camp

58:53.860 --> 58:59.140
interesting. Second lumber camp is not normal. We can have a lot of wood for groovy here.

58:59.140 --> 59:05.140
Why is it normal? In this map it's pretty good, no?

59:05.140 --> 59:08.140
It's okay. It's not bad to go for a second lumber camp.

59:08.140 --> 59:13.140
But I would say it's not normal because if you go 7 on wood, normally second lumber camp is not needed.

59:13.140 --> 59:17.140
So if you wanted a second lumber camp, I would go like 5 on wood, maximum.

59:17.140 --> 59:19.140
So just a little strange thing to have.

59:19.140 --> 59:25.140
Just a lot of wood, a lot of actual wood handy, which is okay, but could end up costing him maybe.

59:29.140 --> 59:35.940
Now Knopf is going to stone, he's doing what we expect him to do which is to go for the

59:35.940 --> 59:40.000
genus areas but there's still a big question mark on whether he's going to make the castle

59:40.000 --> 59:42.000
at home or forward.

59:42.000 --> 59:45.120
Personally I said this before but I think you definitely want to make it forward if

59:45.120 --> 59:46.680
you can help it.

59:46.680 --> 59:51.900
Obviously there's a bit of a risk involved there but the Tv is queuing the loom.

59:51.900 --> 59:56.000
If he's queuing the loom that could be a very strong indicator that he's going forward otherwise

59:56.000 --> 59:57.600
it means that he's going to keep it at home.

59:57.600 --> 01:00:01.280
And he's gonna just play a little safer, but sometimes safer is not very good, right?

01:00:01.840 --> 01:00:04.400
If you play it too safe and suddenly grab you just far ahead

01:00:04.920 --> 01:00:07.600
Yeah, two dogs can't castle drop

01:00:08.240 --> 01:00:11.420
level 20 like five views 26

01:00:13.920 --> 01:00:19.760
You know, no, no, it's not fast and fast but it has to be 29 minimum. Yeah, this is not fast

01:00:21.040 --> 01:00:22.160
26

01:00:22.160 --> 01:00:27.320
You know why when he teach local to play this like castle drop he

01:00:27.600 --> 01:00:29.600
This is 21 build.

01:00:29.600 --> 01:00:31.600
Yeah, but that's the all-in version.

01:00:31.600 --> 01:00:33.600
Like the 21 build is all-in.

01:00:35.600 --> 01:00:39.600
But this is also kind of, you know, anyway, this castle drop.

01:00:39.600 --> 01:00:41.600
Not really.

01:00:41.600 --> 01:00:43.600
So, okay, let me talk about what's the difference there.

01:00:43.600 --> 01:00:46.600
So, if you go to 21 pop for the castle drop,

01:00:46.600 --> 01:00:48.600
you're like not even going to be able to make villagers.

01:00:48.600 --> 01:00:50.600
You will not get zero economy upgrades,

01:00:50.600 --> 01:00:52.600
you will barely get relics,

01:00:52.600 --> 01:00:54.600
you'll make the castle forward,

01:00:54.600 --> 01:00:56.600
and you can barely make villagers.

01:00:56.600 --> 01:01:01.400
Like everything is completely at zero your economy whereas this one here. She didn't make the castle

01:01:01.400 --> 01:01:05.100
He can get the monastery for relics. You can get the economy upgrades. You can make villagers

01:01:05.100 --> 01:01:08.520
You can add town centers. It's not an all-in build at all basically

01:01:08.520 --> 01:01:12.700
That's the difference between the two cast drops or the two

01:01:13.280 --> 01:01:19.540
Castle strategies by the way no loom. So it's gonna be castle at home for Knopf. He's doing what he what he likes to do

01:01:19.540 --> 01:01:24.340
He's doing what's comfortable. He's not gonna take any risks here. I think that's a mistake into grubby to be honest

01:01:24.740 --> 01:01:26.240
Yeah

01:01:26.240 --> 01:01:43.240
Especially when you see Gruby in Raze, he is very strong in late game, but his early game is lacklustreal, so early game is a chance for Knove, and pressure is a chance for Knove.

01:01:43.240 --> 01:01:46.240
Yeah, I should fully agree with that, I think.

01:01:46.240 --> 01:01:51.240
Playing into Grubby's late game is going to be really hard, whereas in the early game, especially if you have a passive forward,

01:01:51.240 --> 01:01:57.240
I feel like you have some real chances to win, but, you know, it is what it is. Knopf's trying what he is comfortable with.

01:01:57.240 --> 01:02:00.240
It's also okay to just stick to your comfort zone sometimes.

01:02:00.240 --> 01:02:05.240
Scott's still alive, he's looking for the relics maybe, and he's kind of going about this early game.

01:02:05.240 --> 01:02:12.240
A nice little funnel there, so Grubby gets all of his chickens, and then he's going to go ahead and pass over to the next stage.

01:02:12.240 --> 01:02:16.400
look for his relics. He is indeed playing the stable opening, so Grubby will be playing

01:02:16.400 --> 01:02:20.440
Light Cab and Monks looking to take those Burgundian relics, which give food in addition

01:02:20.440 --> 01:02:26.320
to gold. They're quite good here, and Castle Time drops a little faster, a little faster.

01:02:26.320 --> 01:02:35.320
Yeah, and it's already a res collected difference actually when a grabby one field ahead.

01:02:35.320 --> 01:02:36.320
Yeah.

01:02:43.320 --> 01:02:45.320
Alright, both economy upgrades coming in.

01:02:45.320 --> 01:02:46.320
Yeah.

01:02:46.320 --> 01:02:52.320
Yeah, also, yeah, Grubby got the bidax faster, so him having a bit more res collected is actually normal.

01:02:52.320 --> 01:02:57.800
Gold comes in a little faster for Turks, but that doesn't really matter too much because you only have two bills on gold for the early game

01:02:58.400 --> 01:03:01.000
Knopf is gonna have his castle soon

01:03:01.000 --> 01:03:05.880
I said a good build by the way, he's gonna have exactly 650 stone but I mean it's castlet

01:03:05.880 --> 01:03:09.760
So a very strong build with Knopf and he'll make the castle right at home

01:03:10.800 --> 01:03:14.400
Probably on the front here. Maybe he'll walk over here, but no he'll just make it right here

01:03:14.640 --> 01:03:17.700
This is gonna be pretty solid for him using the free light cap to bully

01:03:17.700 --> 01:03:22.680
grubby away from his gate grubby will be able to run away here and grubby from his

01:03:22.680 --> 01:03:26.420
perspective does not see the castle wow grubby didn't see the castle there

01:03:26.420 --> 01:03:35.660
that's crazy but but this car this castle is bad for his goals no he because

01:03:35.660 --> 01:03:40.340
it will block his goal and a little but not too much should be fine if I think

01:03:40.340 --> 01:03:45.660
yeah because you can take it on this side this side and this side so it's okay

01:03:45.660 --> 01:03:53.660
Knopf gets loomed by the way, I don't think that's very much needed, but I fixed it up just in case, you know better safe than sorry I suppose.

01:03:53.660 --> 01:04:01.660
Knopf could be playing on 1-2-C for a while, he's only got one on stone, so he'll go for the monastery, make a monkey, he's playing for the relics here.

01:04:01.660 --> 01:04:04.660
He's gonna make some Janissaries, Blackadder unit.

01:04:04.660 --> 01:04:08.660
For a grabby, relics only give 20 food, right?

01:04:08.660 --> 01:04:10.660
20 food per minute.

01:04:10.660 --> 01:04:15.660
Where they give 30 gold per minute, so a little bit less food than gold.

01:04:15.660 --> 01:04:19.660
Yeah, it used to be stoker, right? Stoker, yeah.

01:04:19.660 --> 01:04:24.660
Yeah, got a little nerf there. They got switched around through bonuses.

01:04:24.660 --> 01:04:29.660
Grabby, it's pretty solid.

01:04:29.660 --> 01:04:36.660
I should play against Grabby, Arena, not Aredia, my second pick.

01:04:36.660 --> 01:04:40.500
That's what I thought should be honest. Yeah, my supplansers would

01:04:41.540 --> 01:04:43.540
Pretty good against his nice

01:04:46.580 --> 01:04:53.780
Sixth supplansers in like 30 minutes timing. Yeah. Yeah, I actually think that's what you should have done back then

01:04:53.780 --> 01:04:58.940
But yeah, it's easy to stay in hindsight. So no worries. Don't feel too bad about it. You have another chance

01:04:58.940 --> 01:05:00.440
I'm sure down the line

01:05:00.440 --> 01:05:05.440
Uh, Gruby continues to move forward here with, uh, oh sorry, uh, Knoff continues to move forward here with some Janus areas.

01:05:05.940 --> 01:05:09.440
Gruby keeps a close eye on him, but he's taking some hits here with the Lightcab.

01:05:09.440 --> 01:05:12.940
He's gonna have to back off, he'll back off in good time. You can always heal your Lightcab, right?

01:05:12.940 --> 01:05:15.940
So as long as you don't lose any units, you'll be fine to just heal them up.

01:05:15.940 --> 01:05:17.940
Husband G coming in for extra speed.

01:05:17.940 --> 01:05:18.940
Which is quite nice for him.

01:05:23.940 --> 01:05:24.440
Ooh.

01:05:24.940 --> 01:05:25.940
Dude, Knoff is cooking.

01:05:26.940 --> 01:05:29.440
Oh, oh, forward villagers! Wait, he's gonna push?

01:05:29.440 --> 01:05:34.440
It's a 1TC, it's a 1 base player. He is gonna push, I quite like this actually.

01:05:39.440 --> 01:05:42.440
Mustnite will beat Junaid Serious like that.

01:05:42.440 --> 01:05:43.440
Yeah.

01:05:44.440 --> 01:05:46.440
Yeah, I agree.

01:05:46.440 --> 01:05:50.440
Cavalier will be good, but the question is whether Grubby goes to that.

01:05:50.440 --> 01:05:56.440
I'm showing you guys Grubby's vision, he's gonna see the Villager, he's gonna see the workshop, huge scouting from Grubby.

01:05:56.440 --> 01:06:01.600
Seeing that workshop is very important. He now knows a push is coming. How does he react? He's gonna go with a range

01:06:01.600 --> 01:06:07.440
I don't like this range. Like you said death. No cavalier. Yeah, yeah, yeah, should be the better option

01:06:08.240 --> 01:06:09.800
yeah

01:06:09.800 --> 01:06:18.100
And do you like actually know what no beat then before he could cut the drop like two three minutes earlier and game would be

01:06:19.760 --> 01:06:22.200
Yeah, yeah, this is not really different like

01:06:22.200 --> 01:06:28.520
Yeah, making the castle forward instead of making it at home. I think it would be better honestly just making the castle forward

01:06:29.120 --> 01:06:34.520
Getting the genoceries out. I think that would be the better way to go about it, but you know fair enough

01:06:34.520 --> 01:06:36.520
He just wasn't able to do that

01:06:36.840 --> 01:06:40.440
Okay, this is still pretty good though. There's a good push from Choth

01:06:48.400 --> 01:06:50.400
Burgundians equal

01:06:50.400 --> 01:07:01.400
And gold in the back which are very important for Grubby. If his gold would be in front, empty zone in front of gold, it could be very good win condition, but here...

01:07:04.400 --> 01:07:12.400
Alright, Ram on the wall. It's a good point from Death Note, by the way. Gold to the back. Very, very nice for Grubby. He's gonna be able to secure himself.

01:07:12.400 --> 01:07:16.560
a lot of gold doesn't have to move the villagers either does have a safe stone as well to take

01:07:16.560 --> 01:07:20.880
he's gonna go for a guard tower defense potentially make one watch tower near his um

01:07:22.240 --> 01:07:27.280
near his town center try to defend himself he's trying to go to skirmishers which is decent

01:07:27.280 --> 01:07:34.480
uh skirmishers is wards the knights here and i think kevillian would be better

01:07:34.480 --> 01:07:45.760
I think Cavalier would be better, but I think the Skirms are okay.

01:07:45.760 --> 01:07:49.440
I'd rather see the Skirms and see nothing in my opinion, so it's not that bad.

01:07:49.440 --> 01:07:53.280
I see him go bot canary as well, but the tower should be able to defend a little bit.

01:07:53.280 --> 01:07:58.080
But, he is losing a couple villagers, we do have Loom at least for Grubby.

01:07:58.080 --> 01:08:00.800
And Knoth, go for the Talon Sinner, that's way too early, you can't do that.

01:08:00.800 --> 01:08:05.800
Probably going for the houses and barracks, maybe the range, maybe this side is way better.

01:08:05.800 --> 01:08:08.800
As far as the push goes, he's adding in some patards, Knoth.

01:08:08.800 --> 01:08:12.800
Feels like he doesn't really know exactly what he wants to do, he just knows that he wants to play aggressive.

01:08:12.800 --> 01:08:15.800
Two builds coming again. Dude, Knoth is sending everything he's got right now.

01:08:15.800 --> 01:08:17.800
Ah, a grubby.

01:08:19.800 --> 01:08:21.800
Got a patard.

01:08:21.800 --> 01:08:23.800
Use a patard in front of the house.

01:08:23.800 --> 01:08:29.800
It's pretty good. You see the wall, triple PC which protect almost everything.

01:08:32.100 --> 01:08:34.700
Knoff is backing up from one monk by the way.

01:08:35.200 --> 01:08:38.600
It's very sloppy, very sloppy. That's a terrible play from Knoff actually.

01:08:41.900 --> 01:08:46.500
That was not good at all. Don't want to be too harsh because he's of course trying to make something happen here which could be a bit difficult.

01:08:46.500 --> 01:08:53.500
But if you're going for a big push and you're backing away with 15 genisters versus one monk, letting your opponent rewalled us is just a terrible, terrible attacking play.

01:08:53.800 --> 01:08:59.500
Now that the window he made with the petard is just not there anymore and the skirmishers are going to be picking up these genis there is a crazy

01:09:09.400 --> 01:09:14.680
All right good healing though it's not for the monks forward and he did pick up one relic only again

01:09:14.680 --> 01:09:16.680
I would like to see him pick up the other two

01:09:17.120 --> 01:09:21.920
You could steal grubby's relics potentially good defense so far from grubby behind some walls

01:09:21.920 --> 01:09:27.920
with some skirmishers and you have a manganelle here as well.

01:09:27.920 --> 01:09:33.920
For Knopk, he can attack farms, which are pretty good.

01:09:33.920 --> 01:09:37.920
Yeah, hitting the farms is not too bad. He's killing villages on the farms as well.

01:09:37.920 --> 01:09:41.920
Kill some manganelle there. Very powerful Turkish push, by the way.

01:09:41.920 --> 01:09:47.920
Yeah, he needs to attack the sea. If you attack the sea, you would hit Everest, I think.

01:09:47.920 --> 01:09:49.920
Yeah

01:09:53.920 --> 01:09:59.920
Oh, two Janissaries died, actually the third one died, so three Janissaries went down there, it's not good at all

01:09:59.920 --> 01:10:07.920
Pocno can they be in condition before, not now, if he will drop Castle here, imagine if he push it now, if he Janissaries, he drop Castle

01:10:08.920 --> 01:10:13.920
It's will zone away, grab so much from his main to see, from farm

01:10:13.920 --> 01:10:19.360
But he looked mine in stone.

01:10:19.360 --> 01:10:20.560
Yeah, that's the problem.

01:10:20.560 --> 01:10:21.560
No stone.

01:10:21.560 --> 01:10:22.560
No stone to go with that.

01:10:22.560 --> 01:10:23.560
Castle follow-ups.

01:10:23.560 --> 01:10:24.640
It's just Janissary.

01:10:24.640 --> 01:10:28.280
Just Janissary and Maginol so far.

01:10:28.280 --> 01:10:29.280
Good shots though.

01:10:29.280 --> 01:10:30.280
Grobby's taking a few units.

01:10:30.280 --> 01:10:33.800
In fact, they kind of both are leaking units back and forth.

01:10:33.800 --> 01:10:35.200
One for one probably.

01:10:35.200 --> 01:10:36.200
One for one.

01:10:36.200 --> 01:10:40.920
Decent for both players, but usually Knoth with all this gunpowder wants a bit more momentum.

01:10:40.920 --> 01:10:42.480
I like the ram on the right side.

01:10:42.480 --> 01:10:45.960
Guys, Knobs was heating up with his push, dude. He could actually win this game.

01:10:45.960 --> 01:10:49.060
I wish he had that castle though. Too much wood right now.

01:10:49.060 --> 01:10:51.160
Uh, Mr. Death Note.

01:10:51.160 --> 01:10:54.000
Yeah.

01:10:54.000 --> 01:10:58.340
He had like 1.4k wood.

01:10:58.340 --> 01:10:59.380
And the push is on 9.

01:10:59.380 --> 01:11:02.120
I'm almost against Manganos. That doesn't work.

01:11:02.120 --> 01:11:03.520
Yep.

01:11:03.520 --> 01:11:07.520
So, Knobs killed 12 villagers there. It was not a bad push at all.

01:11:07.520 --> 01:11:11.040
Um, we have a lot of skirmishers on the field now from Grubby.

01:11:24.400 --> 01:11:28.320
Did Skirmikero Grubby splits? Oh my god, Grubby splitting like a champion! Holy

01:11:28.320 --> 01:11:29.520
D! Nothing to say! Yeah!

01:11:32.080 --> 01:11:33.280
One for one of the Magnos.

01:11:33.280 --> 01:11:39.060
Scrum micro solid here. Good job from Knoff though, just comes forward.

01:11:39.060 --> 01:11:41.160
Oh, it takes a big shot back though.

01:11:41.160 --> 01:11:48.280
Now Grover's starting to lose some of these Scrums, but he's trading quite nicely into

01:11:48.280 --> 01:11:52.080
the Janissaries. Remember, Scrumrisher's not even costing gold, so in the long term, trading

01:11:52.080 --> 01:11:55.960
against Janissaries is great. One for one on the Maginoles, better for the defending player.

01:11:55.960 --> 01:11:59.360
Grover's up 20 villagers, he's bringing in the Light Cab now. Finally, Light Cab can

01:11:59.360 --> 01:12:02.960
be great to snipe the Maginoles. Scrum Light Cab would be amazing here as well. Can go

01:12:02.960 --> 01:12:08.160
for the monk. I'd like to have on to the Magano Genesis, should I depend on this one? That's

01:12:08.160 --> 01:12:15.120
not what you're seeing. I think that Knoth, who's failed, and he's playing now a game

01:12:15.120 --> 01:12:23.900
triple PC, bro. Yeah. Triple PC is like 20 villages almost behind. Yeah. He's economic

01:12:23.900 --> 01:12:32.040
upgrades behind. Yeah, look good for Knoth at some point. I think he kind of like, he

01:12:32.040 --> 01:12:35.700
He had the tools for it, but I think he kind of disrespected Grubby too much, like I saw

01:12:35.700 --> 01:12:39.960
some moments where he was just backing up, where he should have just been going forward.

01:12:39.960 --> 01:12:43.320
Obviously credit to Grubby for making that defense happen, you know, he did go for the

01:12:43.320 --> 01:12:44.820
right unit with the lead scrim.

01:12:44.820 --> 01:12:48.120
We did talk about Cavalier potentially being better, but I don't mind the skirmishers in

01:12:48.120 --> 01:12:49.880
the end, I think the scrims were decent.

01:12:49.880 --> 01:12:51.880
Pick up these bullet heads.

01:12:51.880 --> 01:12:56.720
Good castle job in front with much sharper castle, I think.

01:12:56.720 --> 01:13:02.840
In Senius today, I mean, at least you think his castle timing was 14 minutes,

01:13:02.840 --> 01:13:10.120
not castle timing in this game, like something like 15, 20, which are very slow,

01:13:10.120 --> 01:13:13.080
if you want to actually castle drop, I think.

01:13:13.080 --> 01:13:17.200
And to prevent a front castle, I like five scouts.

01:13:17.200 --> 01:13:22.320
And since I was like the time patrolling, he's like walls with like three scouts,

01:13:22.320 --> 01:13:25.120
Okay, and that's a broken the baby cause they can't

01:13:25.520 --> 01:13:30.880
From castle is like five scouts and my scouts are stronger because they have lost twenty-five

01:13:31.120 --> 01:13:33.320
Speed the normal scouts. Yeah

01:13:37.360 --> 01:13:41.000
Yeah, I would like to see a forward cast of Knoth didn't happen

01:13:41.000 --> 01:13:45.760
He went to the back castle and he's trying to kind of recover into a boom the pop

01:13:45.760 --> 01:13:49.660
I'm doing this though. Yeah, he said you just can't recover you're down 30 villagers

01:13:52.320 --> 01:14:05.320
And Grabby is going to push out this forward siege workshop, see redemption from Grabby by the way, so his monks will be able to convert siege, so keep that in mind because they're converting some siege, it's that tech redemption that made it happen.

01:14:05.320 --> 01:14:14.320
Bro, when I saw the redemption, they redeemed my siege workshop, I was like, ah, what?

01:14:14.320 --> 01:14:17.320
Were they converted to siege workshop?

01:14:17.320 --> 01:14:25.320
Yeah, the guy played Fusfuru Rush with the Portuguese, with this like group, group, group.

01:14:25.320 --> 01:14:35.320
When he stole my workshop and only my tool to, I guess he's like organ dance and Manganos.

01:14:35.320 --> 01:14:38.320
Yeah, it's such a deadly push when you get those redemption monks in.

01:14:38.320 --> 01:14:43.320
Oh my god! Wow. We just walked right into that, three Manganos?

01:14:43.320 --> 01:14:46.320
Okay, it wasn't that bad actually. Knoff recovered beautifully.

01:14:46.320 --> 01:14:52.320
That could have been a lot worse, but that ended up being a good fight for Knoff, actually he lost three Geniseries, but killed three Magnals.

01:14:52.320 --> 01:14:58.320
He'll take that trade. The problem is though, Grubby takes the middle of the map and he's almost up to Imperial Age 40, builds up, and almost up to Imperial Age.

01:14:58.320 --> 01:15:07.320
Knoff is kind of close to Imperial Age as well, and Turc-Faster Imp is nice. You get a lot of free upgrades in Imp, but here's the thing, Grubby's already clicked.

01:15:07.320 --> 01:15:09.320
So it's not so, wow.

01:15:09.320 --> 01:15:15.320
Yeah, you need to bomb the cannons as fast as you can and try to pull the castle, otherwise

01:15:15.320 --> 01:15:19.320
you can't give grab the middle.

01:15:19.320 --> 01:15:23.320
Because grab it already because it's like a big equal advantage.

01:15:23.320 --> 01:15:25.320
Yeah, and you have a lot of villages as well.

01:15:25.320 --> 01:15:27.320
We talked about how many minerals are in the center.

01:15:27.320 --> 01:15:30.320
I think it was four stones, four golds.

01:15:30.320 --> 01:15:32.320
There's so much extra res in the center.

01:15:32.320 --> 01:15:36.320
All these minerals are so important to fuel your power units, fuel your castles,

01:15:36.320 --> 01:15:40.080
you control the map and so the longer that grubby takes the middle the more

01:15:40.080 --> 01:15:43.240
you're able to benefit from those minerals and the harder it's going to be for

01:15:43.240 --> 01:15:47.280
Knopf to actually win this game so what Knopf needs here is a fast imp

01:15:47.280 --> 01:15:52.440
turret push like an early imp turret push this imp timing isn't fast it's

01:15:52.440 --> 01:15:55.600
actually slower than grubbies but still with free chemistry you can be actually

01:15:55.600 --> 01:15:58.160
getting the first move on the map with bomber cannons.

01:15:58.160 --> 01:16:05.960
look grab it have now hand car yeah because now so sort farm upgrade yeah

01:16:05.960 --> 01:16:10.320
yeah that's insane crop rotation is already in third farm upgrade you might

01:16:10.320 --> 01:16:13.400
see third wood upgrade coming soon he's also preparing paladin by the way

01:16:13.400 --> 01:16:17.480
adding in the stable so it's gonna be really hard for Turks to actually survive

01:16:17.480 --> 01:16:24.160
this one the beginning economy is just really strong sometimes and 40 villagers

01:16:24.160 --> 01:16:28.320
huge deal by the way a huge huge deal it can't be stressed enough a grubby already

01:16:28.320 --> 01:16:31.760
has 7000 more resources collected this number will continue to grow take a

01:16:31.760 --> 01:16:35.200
look at the economy of grits come again stone chef mining gold chef mining and

01:16:35.200 --> 01:16:39.000
two men saw this is like all the economy of grits in the game basically for

01:16:39.000 --> 01:16:44.760
grubby which is insane how many one villager resources per minute like 50

01:16:44.760 --> 01:16:49.960
one one villager in the early game is like 20 or 30 researches per minute in

01:16:49.960 --> 01:16:53.560
late game no other games like 20 and late games like 30 researches per minute

01:16:53.560 --> 01:16:55.560
The villager

01:16:56.960 --> 01:16:59.920
By the way, it must be mentioned four relics for grubby in the end

01:16:59.920 --> 01:17:05.800
So Knoth had the map control could have taken the relics didn't so now it's four relics for grubby another castle forward

01:17:05.800 --> 01:17:07.240
He's got the skirmisher set up

01:17:07.240 --> 01:17:09.040
He's got the cavalier set up behind that as well

01:17:09.040 --> 01:17:13.840
And now we see the genis here is on the front for a Knoth. Maybe some bomb that's coming up

01:17:13.840 --> 01:17:20.080
It's gonna be his SARS. This is a very weak army for Knoth though. Two staples are I'm not feeling it, you know

01:17:23.560 --> 01:17:33.680
Geneseries, we'll kill the manganelle.

01:17:33.680 --> 01:17:36.480
I like these getting the first move on the map though, it's decent, but the castle is

01:17:36.480 --> 01:17:45.040
going to help out, kill some of these units, gotta be careful here, oh, you gotta be careful.

01:17:45.040 --> 01:17:51.200
But at least it's for a grad day, it's huge, it's huge as well.

01:17:51.200 --> 01:17:54.680
That's the most expensive, not expensive, that's the most important upgrade when playing

01:17:54.680 --> 01:17:55.680
Ranged Units.

01:17:55.680 --> 01:17:58.960
You have to remember to go for the Ballistics early to get you insane value.

01:17:58.960 --> 01:18:03.240
Now we have chemistry coming out for the Bombards for Grubby of course, Turks with the free

01:18:03.240 --> 01:18:07.320
chemistry so they don't have to even research it.

01:18:07.320 --> 01:18:13.000
And now we have some Trebuchets coming out.

01:18:13.000 --> 01:18:14.600
Grubby does not have to rush this game.

01:18:14.600 --> 01:18:18.040
Actually fundamentally I think it's a mistake to go for a Trebuchet here.

01:18:18.040 --> 01:18:21.280
funny because like it doesn't actually matter he's so far ahead but I think it's

01:18:21.280 --> 01:18:24.880
not the right call to go for a trebuchet here what you're looking to do is get

01:18:24.880 --> 01:18:29.400
such a massive army that you can just sweep your opponent when he tries to

01:18:29.400 --> 01:18:32.280
push you you don't actually have to push yourself right now you can just wait

01:18:32.280 --> 01:18:36.680
till 200 pop for sure wait for your paladin etc.

01:18:36.680 --> 01:18:41.640
you know I always will think like that then I have 200 pop and I can't make

01:18:41.640 --> 01:18:46.040
probably more because I'm a amongst

01:18:46.040 --> 01:18:49.240
yeah you have 180 villagers death note you have a specific problem you make too

01:18:49.240 --> 01:18:52.320
many villagers actually no you don't make your army fast enough that's the

01:18:52.320 --> 01:18:56.980
issue yeah but in that case you can just delete some villas and make the traps

01:18:56.980 --> 01:19:00.820
anyway you have so many of them it's always worth yeah then I need to cancel

01:19:00.820 --> 01:19:06.880
my queue for like 50 army before set before getting your trims on the field

01:19:06.880 --> 01:19:08.880
Yeah, I could get a little awkward.

01:19:10.520 --> 01:19:13.960
Big snipe. Yeah, nice raids. Nice raids from Grubby.

01:19:14.440 --> 01:19:17.960
Paladin here is a great choice alongside the skirmishers. It's very very good.

01:19:18.480 --> 01:19:20.480
It's gonna easily beat the Hissar.

01:19:20.920 --> 01:19:27.080
It'll beat the Janissary too, like Paladin just solo's all of Knoth's army at the moment. Paladin's a very good choice here.

01:19:27.080 --> 01:19:29.080
I like this from Grubby, dude. This is so good.

01:19:29.080 --> 01:19:34.080
The Presidents of Mine, they just send in a unit. Grubby's like the best player in the Sermat doing this.

01:19:34.080 --> 01:19:39.120
This one unit goes in, you just rage your opponents, you know, cost and habit, looking

01:19:39.120 --> 01:19:44.360
for another raid here, Paladin in 20 seconds, this is a really good timing, and meanwhile

01:19:44.360 --> 01:19:48.320
you can use the Bombard to snipe the Bombards from Knoth, two Bombards already down, these

01:19:48.320 --> 01:19:55.560
are expensive units, this is crazy from Grubby, third, third one was down, wow.

01:19:55.560 --> 01:19:57.280
Look at that, splitting up to Paladin.

01:19:57.280 --> 01:20:02.400
Dude, I'm sorry to say here guys, but Grubby is clearly outclassing Knoth.

01:20:02.400 --> 01:20:07.680
Obviously we expected somewhat due to the elo difference and you know the skill level going into the matchup

01:20:07.680 --> 01:20:12.800
But grubby is on form and I really all got a good conversion the Megan as well and he kills it

01:20:13.040 --> 01:20:14.800
yak noff just

01:20:14.800 --> 01:20:19.400
Bit of a mismatch here G G in the chat dude. This is crazy grubby's playing very well here

01:20:20.920 --> 01:20:22.920
Of course you like

01:20:25.440 --> 01:20:31.760
No, but you say that no, and I see the chat saying that as well like honestly, I'm not just glazing because it's grubby

01:20:31.760 --> 01:20:36.920
I genuinely feel like in this matchup like Knopf had a good push at some point

01:20:37.200 --> 01:20:39.960
But I should have Knopf like let's just fill up the gas

01:20:40.160 --> 01:20:45.120
Grubby is just so strong at getting to like 180 pop and making use of that pop right away

01:20:45.120 --> 01:20:49.080
Knopf makes one mistake leaves them all open and then the Paladin runs in and

01:20:50.440 --> 01:20:52.440
Yeah, it's just it's just really hard to play

01:20:54.560 --> 01:20:58.200
If I would play instead of Grubby, oh my god, like he has only like

01:20:58.200 --> 01:21:04.420
five staples not like nine staples now mistake oh my god why mistake this

01:21:04.420 --> 01:21:09.100
model should like move in one millimeter like in the left mistake mistake mistake

01:21:09.100 --> 01:21:18.780
it's so not true I'll tell you why I thought you a big stretch first the

01:21:18.780 --> 01:21:23.380
thing is death note is that you had like a hundred eighty bills and no military so

01:21:23.380 --> 01:21:26.220
I don't know if you're actually good with your military not because you didn't

01:21:26.220 --> 01:21:31.080
make any so it's not even my fault you didn't make military so you saying that I would talk

01:21:31.080 --> 01:21:35.320
about your magnol being off by a millimeter you didn't even have a magnol you had 180

01:21:35.320 --> 01:21:42.520
bills no loom that's the problem didn't be a Raven X by the way Knopf is going to go

01:21:42.520 --> 01:21:46.480
to a Raven X wow I would have thought he'd do a renegade but I guess he didn't have another

01:21:46.480 --> 01:21:53.560
said besides turks though yes all right

01:21:55.240 --> 01:21:59.400
grubby had 27 villagers in queue while at 145 bills yeah but that's okay

01:21:59.400 --> 01:22:03.040
because it's grubby it's not a mistake he knows he knows something you guys

01:22:03.040 --> 01:22:06.520
don't no grubby that's correct for grubby that no did that be a mistake

01:22:06.520 --> 01:22:14.720
though you guys have to get it straight you gotta get it straight man listen

01:22:14.720 --> 01:22:15.720
I'm just saying.

01:22:15.720 --> 01:22:20.040
Finally you honest, finally you honest.

01:22:20.040 --> 01:22:21.040
Honestly at last.

01:22:21.040 --> 01:22:25.800
But you've coached me in Warcraft Death Note, so you could be honest with me there as well,

01:22:25.800 --> 01:22:26.800
like it's okay.

01:22:26.800 --> 01:22:27.800
Yeah.

01:22:27.800 --> 01:22:34.440
When is the next Warcraft 3 Agilent Pass to coaching?

01:22:34.440 --> 01:22:39.520
Honestly, I can't do any Warcraft because I have a tournament after this myself.

01:22:39.520 --> 01:22:44.400
I have to play a Brazil tournament, so I'll be completely gone for a while until like

01:22:44.400 --> 01:22:48.240
mid-July, but maybe in mid-July we can we can run it back. Question in the chat,

01:22:48.240 --> 01:22:53.160
are we getting a T90 co-cast? I tried the last three days. The last three days

01:22:53.160 --> 01:22:56.560
we're trying to get a hold of T90 for a co-cast and he was kind of flaking every

01:22:56.560 --> 01:23:00.320
single day. I don't know what happened even. Maybe he got busy, the schedule was

01:23:00.320 --> 01:23:05.440
not right or something like that, but yeah T90 just didn't show. We had it

01:23:05.440 --> 01:23:08.320
confirmed from like a couple weeks ago, but I think just the timings didn't line

01:23:08.320 --> 01:23:14.320
up. It's a shame, but we tried to make it happen. But maybe next time, maybe next

01:23:14.320 --> 01:23:18.320
No worries. He overslapped the... yeah, maybe.

01:23:18.320 --> 01:23:20.320
Shadow of the day, Druck.

01:23:20.320 --> 01:23:24.320
Alright, we're looking for the next match now. It's going to be Arabia, but in the lobby right now.

01:23:28.320 --> 01:23:32.320
Is it possible to lower the camps a little bit?

01:23:32.320 --> 01:23:33.320
Yeah, sure.

01:23:41.320 --> 01:23:43.320
Actually, it's not working right now.

01:23:44.320 --> 01:23:51.320
It's not working right now, so it's not possible.

01:23:51.320 --> 01:23:59.320
Nevermind, not possible.

01:23:59.320 --> 01:24:02.320
No worries.

01:24:02.320 --> 01:24:05.320
Is he not any jealous of the King's gauntlets?

01:24:05.320 --> 01:24:06.320
Why would he not promote it more?

01:24:06.320 --> 01:24:09.320
I don't think he's jealous of the King's gauntlets.

01:24:09.320 --> 01:24:10.320
It's not his tournament, right?

01:24:10.320 --> 01:24:11.320
He doesn't have to promote it.

01:24:11.320 --> 01:24:13.320
Promotions done on our channel.

01:24:13.320 --> 01:24:17.320
I would like to have them for the casting, but it's okay, no problem.

01:24:17.320 --> 01:24:18.320
No worries.

01:24:18.320 --> 01:24:21.320
Death Note in the chat with the hashtag King's Lives Matters.

01:24:21.320 --> 01:24:24.320
You have to watch out with your King, man.

01:24:24.320 --> 01:24:26.320
I actually love the Renner side here.

01:24:26.320 --> 01:24:30.320
I love how many King Snipes you've had.

01:24:30.320 --> 01:24:36.320
We've had, like, Tofa with a King Snipe, Death Note with a King Suicide.

01:24:36.320 --> 01:24:39.320
We had Stiffing Brit with a King Suicide.

01:24:39.320 --> 01:24:45.600
We had who snapped the king with a treb was that eternal somebody snapped the king with a treb

01:24:46.480 --> 01:24:51.380
That's so bad. Yeah with a treb. I don't know if you saw that one, but it was Mr. Lama

01:24:52.760 --> 01:24:55.680
I'll play some ads. I'm gonna hop in sorry go ahead death note, please

01:24:56.600 --> 01:25:00.140
My fortress the game against insane

01:25:00.600 --> 01:25:05.340
When I was thinking about that I tried to go get my like mouse, you know

01:25:05.340 --> 01:25:12.700
elephants. It was my dream. I just make hundreds of plants, just hundreds of elephants. I click

01:25:12.700 --> 01:25:19.980
and drink tea in the same pan and see my elephants doing jobs. And the thing doesn't know what

01:25:19.980 --> 01:25:26.660
to do even against this. Because you know, it's like, it almost would be unkillable for

01:25:26.660 --> 01:25:32.940
him if he doesn't know the answer, right? Yeah, yeah. Because personally, elephants are just

01:25:32.940 --> 01:25:38.460
You know something else. They're like they have own tier compared to other elephants

01:25:38.700 --> 01:25:43.940
But in that game Savara would be actually been conditioned would win conditions for me

01:25:43.940 --> 01:25:46.380
Yeah, because he just must see a

01:25:47.700 --> 01:25:50.780
Yes, I've already been fantastic, but anyway back to this game here

01:25:50.780 --> 01:25:54.060
We have grubby as the Ethiopians has tried and tested Ethiopians

01:25:54.060 --> 01:25:58.980
He's played them once in this tournament and he's lost with them to pig yesterday pig

01:25:58.980 --> 01:26:01.500
Of course had the Vietnamese which can be considered a counter pig

01:26:01.500 --> 01:26:06.820
But here we have Knopf in red as the Franks and Grubby in blue as the Ethiopians

01:26:06.820 --> 01:26:09.380
And in my opinion I feel like Grubby

01:26:10.060 --> 01:26:12.260
With Ethiopians has a really strong

01:26:12.900 --> 01:26:14.900
understanding of the SIV however

01:26:14.900 --> 01:26:19.340
Often runs into a lot of skirmishers civilizations like he runs into the Vietnamese matchup a lot

01:26:19.700 --> 01:26:25.700
But what do you make of the Ethiopians mr. Mr. Deathknoll or what do you make of the Franks for example from Knopf?

01:26:25.700 --> 01:26:31.140
I think Frank's mistake for Knove, he should play like Mongols.

01:26:31.140 --> 01:26:40.380
I think Mongols, it's one of the things which he means, and against Grabby, he prefer aggression.

01:26:40.380 --> 01:26:47.180
And Mongols with many times, only many times, like 8 minutes, many times rush, would be perfect strat for against Grabby.

01:26:47.180 --> 01:26:47.680
Perfect.

01:26:47.680 --> 01:26:48.180
Yeah.

01:26:48.180 --> 01:26:49.680
Yeah, I actually agree with that.

01:26:49.680 --> 01:26:55.380
I think going, yeah, I think going to Frank's when he has like Mongols with like

01:26:55.380 --> 01:26:58.660
much better approach against Grubby is a big mistake for him.

01:26:58.660 --> 01:27:02.660
Yeah, I actually kind of agree with that. Like one thing I've not really liked from Knoff set up

01:27:02.660 --> 01:27:07.300
here against Grubby is that he's trying to play too much of an honest game. I think when you're

01:27:07.300 --> 01:27:12.020
up against such a big favorite, like you're down 300 points or a major underdog, you got to get

01:27:12.020 --> 01:27:15.860
that dog in you going. You know, you got to go for the mongos, you got to go for the lame,

01:27:15.860 --> 01:27:20.100
you got to go for some kind of meta arm rush, you got to put the pressure on Grubby.

01:27:20.100 --> 01:27:24.260
And that's what we saw Pig do yesterday. Like I'm surprised that Knoff didn't try to get some

01:27:24.260 --> 01:27:28.900
inspiration from that pig set pig went for minna arms and jay fast castle jan swordsman with the

01:27:28.900 --> 01:27:36.260
woof a crazy strategy that caught gruby f guard you know yeah grady after that yeah he changed the

01:27:36.260 --> 01:27:44.340
unit what is his unit uh he has like five minutes armor what uh like he never saw it be with before

01:27:44.340 --> 01:27:51.300
we need to do something you know yeah special i think mongo's my thumbs if you do build correctly

01:27:51.300 --> 01:27:56.900
especially on a gear map. It's like eight minutes more times, three, like, it's

01:27:56.900 --> 01:28:02.500
will be very deadly, especially if Grabby has like some bad spawn. Yeah, this happens, you

01:28:02.500 --> 01:28:06.740
often have bad spawn. Yeah, no, 100% agreed. In this case, of course, it's not going to be the

01:28:06.740 --> 01:28:10.580
Mongols, it's going to be the Franks. Franks could do some early game aggression, usually with some

01:28:10.580 --> 01:28:15.860
Scott Rush, maybe even men arms, but not the fastest. It's okay. It's not a batsive, but it's

01:28:15.860 --> 01:28:25.160
It's a little bit generic, it's a little bit, you know, you know, decent, and it's not very, very powerful, and that's, of course, the kind of thing we're criticizing here.

01:28:25.160 --> 01:28:33.160
Grubby with Ethiopians, they get some extra resources in the early games. It's a great civilization to go up against the Franks, and Ethiopians usually are playing through its archers.

01:28:33.160 --> 01:28:44.660
So you have a classic archers' sieve versus a cavalry sieve, both of which can play with some early game infantry, but later in the game, we don't really expect to see too much infantry unless they're, you know, needed for a specific situation.

01:28:44.660 --> 01:28:48.500
A loom for both players, it looks like it's gonna be a 19-pop click, and Grubby,

01:28:49.000 --> 01:28:52.200
see one of the golds here, is headed to the gold, for interesting.

01:28:52.200 --> 01:28:52.700
Yeah.

01:29:01.060 --> 01:29:01.560
Alright.

01:29:01.560 --> 01:29:08.860
For Grubby, actually, the deer in a better spot, it's way easier to push than for Knoth.

01:29:08.860 --> 01:29:09.360
Yeah.

01:29:09.960 --> 01:29:11.460
Because of this house.

01:29:11.460 --> 01:29:16.460
I'm having a lot of trouble. It's the house that's also the wood line.

01:29:16.460 --> 01:29:21.460
He's only brought in one deer. He's going to go assassinate this deer now.

01:29:21.460 --> 01:29:23.460
No, not quite.

01:29:23.460 --> 01:29:26.460
Bro. Oh my God.

01:29:26.460 --> 01:29:30.460
I think Lofi's very frustrated with the deer.

01:29:30.460 --> 01:29:32.460
He goes scout now?

01:29:32.460 --> 01:29:35.460
He's going to go scout. So he only learned one deer.

01:29:35.460 --> 01:29:38.460
Grubby learned all four deer that he had.

01:29:38.460 --> 01:29:40.460
Yeah, but Q, please.

01:29:40.460 --> 01:29:42.460
Yeah, I appreciate this.

01:30:08.460 --> 01:30:35.460
And grabbing is if you re-offer and go with Minotaur's Rush. But his Minotaur's would be significantly slower than Mungles.

01:30:35.460 --> 01:30:43.740
Yeah. Oh, oh good micro here from garbage. Oh, Japanese. Japanese Minotons would be also

01:30:43.740 --> 01:30:49.140
very good approach for Knob, but I don't think he plays some Japanese. Oh, fast archery range.

01:30:49.140 --> 01:30:53.500
Oh, interesting. There's a range opening. He's not on gold yet though. We're gonna play range,

01:30:53.500 --> 01:30:59.060
just to counter the Minotons. Very interesting. But he will really wall a bit his gold.

01:30:59.060 --> 01:31:06.060
But he need to wall like he would land, yes.

01:31:06.060 --> 01:31:14.980
Alright, Doff is keeping good vision of this, he sees it coming, he's trying to wall as

01:31:14.980 --> 01:31:15.980
much as he can.

01:31:15.980 --> 01:31:19.780
He should be safe, I don't think Grubby is the kind of guy that will run through here.

01:31:19.780 --> 01:31:24.340
Grubby will probably just hit a wall and I like this route, Doff is gonna go archers,

01:31:24.340 --> 01:31:29.620
He'll be on gold, the archers could defend against the men of arms quite nicely, behind

01:31:29.620 --> 01:31:34.580
this Grubby doesn't really have the best follow up, he'll make a range, but he's pretty slow

01:31:34.580 --> 01:31:38.460
to the archers naturally, not because he's slow, but because in general, when you go

01:31:38.460 --> 01:31:43.140
with the range after the men of arms, it's a little slower.

01:31:43.140 --> 01:31:44.140
Because of gold.

01:31:44.140 --> 01:31:45.140
Yes.

01:31:45.140 --> 01:31:49.940
But Glove only has five views on wood.

01:31:49.940 --> 01:31:54.340
Vils is just not enough. You got 6 on gold which are over.

01:31:55.840 --> 01:31:59.540
Yeah, it's over gold and more gold.

01:32:00.040 --> 01:32:02.840
Like, you can keep it running with 4 on gold.

01:32:03.140 --> 01:32:07.740
It's like a bit much. 3 is also acceptable, but 6, even like 5 is too much.

01:32:08.240 --> 01:32:10.240
Grover runs over the scout, looking for some information.

01:32:10.240 --> 01:32:14.240
Might as well use the scout, though, because Knopf is right there with his Frankish scout with more HP.

01:32:14.540 --> 01:32:15.440
Grover's trying to kite.

01:32:15.940 --> 01:32:19.340
Nice try from Grover. He tries to get the kiting on the hill, but just can't make anything happen.

01:32:19.340 --> 01:32:23.840
Good defense from Kroff. Honestly, considering everything, this is not bad at all.

01:32:23.840 --> 01:32:25.340
This is really not bad at all.

01:32:29.340 --> 01:32:30.840
Oh, Gravy can run into the fountain here.

01:32:30.840 --> 01:32:31.840
Gotta be careful.

01:32:31.840 --> 01:32:38.840
I will tire him, because when the guy pressures you in the town, sometimes you can struggle.

01:32:44.340 --> 01:32:46.840
Alright, skirmishers and an archer come across the map here.

01:32:46.840 --> 01:32:53.840
Grubby is actually going for the skirmishers despite being the Ethiopians with the stronger archers.

01:32:53.840 --> 01:32:55.840
He's going for that weird wall around his berries.

01:32:55.840 --> 01:33:00.840
A lot of times you can just give up your berries through the smaller wall and then later on he can just make farms with them.

01:33:00.840 --> 01:33:04.840
I'm not a huge fan of it, but getting some walls down is nice.

01:33:04.840 --> 01:33:06.840
Fletching is already in for Grubby.

01:33:06.840 --> 01:33:08.840
That would be a huge advantage over Knoth.

01:33:08.840 --> 01:33:12.840
Take a look at this forward gold that's exposed because he didn't wall in front of it.

01:33:12.840 --> 01:33:14.840
We just walled to it and now we get punished.

01:33:14.840 --> 01:33:29.020
Oh forcing the tower. It's not good for Knoth. That tower is not even that good. It's gonna

01:33:29.020 --> 01:33:37.700
defend the gold a little bit. It's okay. And he need to block the ground otherwise he'll shoot from low.

01:33:37.700 --> 01:33:45.820
Oh, yeah, that's true. Right now he's shooting from low ground and not looking, oh, that's

01:33:45.820 --> 01:33:49.300
not looking good for Knoth. He's already lost two archers. The tower's up, but he's gonna

01:33:49.300 --> 01:33:52.660
lose a spearman as well. Might even lose one more archer. Okay, the men are armed to get

01:33:52.660 --> 01:33:56.540
cleared up, but Grubby in my opinion has a much better follow-up. He'll wall the top,

01:33:56.540 --> 01:34:01.180
which is great. Grubby should just wall down here, but I don't think he sees it. He does

01:34:01.180 --> 01:34:05.260
see it. That's a huge mistake, not to wall down here. Grubby's gonna try to wall down

01:34:05.260 --> 01:34:13.180
here which is it's okay but yeah it's a little longer there that

01:34:13.180 --> 01:34:22.220
villager but no fun equal is this out there he has too much on gold yeah yeah

01:34:22.220 --> 01:34:28.060
one of the hardest things would be insanely different delay and yeah well

01:34:28.060 --> 01:34:30.380
one of the hardest things is just like figuring out figuring out how many

01:34:30.380 --> 01:34:34.820
bills you need on gold figure out what you want one food and of course at this

01:34:34.820 --> 01:34:37.620
point that note you can see that you've kind of figured it out like you want

01:34:37.620 --> 01:34:42.620
minimum on gold minimum on wood you want maximum on food early because that 800

01:34:42.620 --> 01:34:47.660
food for the castage is really important and keep that in mind

01:34:48.820 --> 01:34:55.260
granted doing our annoying stuff to idle villagers

01:34:55.260 --> 01:35:09.260
Knoth need to go to the closest range to just one shoulder unit to unit because he has unit's advantage.

01:35:09.260 --> 01:35:14.260
Wow, that men-arm got collapsed. Almost killed the villager though actually.

01:35:14.260 --> 01:35:19.260
And yeah, that's definitely right. You're trying to close the gap, try to get in there and just take out the army.

01:35:19.260 --> 01:35:22.260
This character transition from Knoth has been solid with the stable.

01:35:22.260 --> 01:35:26.020
stable. He looked through this up from Grubby. Grubby should have taken the best trade possible.

01:35:26.020 --> 01:35:29.260
And honestly, this is a good trade for Grubby in my opinion. He killed three archers. It's

01:35:29.260 --> 01:35:30.260
pretty good, yeah.

01:35:30.260 --> 01:35:36.260
Yeah, Grubby outclassed here.

01:35:36.260 --> 01:35:42.620
Yeah, which should be expected, which is understandable here, but I wish a few things

01:35:42.620 --> 01:35:47.220
for Knoppa a little differently in those first couple of games. I really felt like if he

01:35:47.220 --> 01:35:50.900
had switched up his game plans a little bit and tried to play more aggressive, he would

01:35:50.900 --> 01:35:56.840
have more chances to win. There's a hole between the middle base. He will always go

01:35:56.840 --> 01:36:02.720
my town, you see. There's a hole. There's a hole between the middle, yeah.

01:36:02.720 --> 01:36:09.040
Oh, here, yeah. Oh, he's gonna patch it up now though. Okay, that's pretty good. Yeah,

01:36:09.040 --> 01:36:15.880
the holes have been a huge deal actually. In this tournament. There's actually a hole up

01:36:15.880 --> 01:36:19.880
here, that little passage. Grubby is gonna fully wall it though now. 30-round

01:36:19.880 --> 01:36:26.480
both players nothing too crazy. Grubby is looking for a sneak attack now with some archers.

01:36:26.480 --> 01:36:31.920
Very good idea to do that. Knoff will somehow scout this. It's pretty random. I think he's

01:36:31.920 --> 01:36:40.040
just running around and he'll just scout it. It's pretty good for him.

01:36:40.040 --> 01:36:45.000
But Scals doesn't work any more against a lot of archers.

01:36:45.000 --> 01:36:48.120
Yeah, it's more of a counter to skirmishers.

01:36:48.120 --> 01:36:50.120
It's archers, it's not gonna be that good.

01:36:50.120 --> 01:36:51.120
Oh, tower?

01:36:51.120 --> 01:36:52.120
That's actually... interesting.

01:36:52.120 --> 01:36:57.000
And it's if, which are double, Blacksmiths upgrades for armor?

01:36:57.000 --> 01:36:58.000
No.

01:36:58.000 --> 01:36:59.000
That would be really broken.

01:36:59.000 --> 01:37:01.200
That would be really broken.

01:37:01.200 --> 01:37:03.240
Double armor on the cap is really strong.

01:37:03.240 --> 01:37:07.400
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, because on Milit of Romans.

01:37:07.400 --> 01:37:08.400
Yeah.

01:37:08.400 --> 01:37:09.400
Oh wow, good reaction from Grubby.

01:37:09.400 --> 01:37:11.160
M'killa, second scout.

01:37:11.160 --> 01:37:14.240
And Knoth keeps running into these crossbows or these archers, but he's not really found

01:37:14.240 --> 01:37:19.000
a proper counter to them. They'll start making some skirmishers now, but with the second

01:37:19.000 --> 01:37:21.000
range

01:37:25.360 --> 01:37:30.960
He might be dead here. Oh, this is not looking good for Knoff. His arches are capped on low ground

01:37:32.720 --> 01:37:34.720
He saw them grab me coming

01:37:38.960 --> 01:37:40.960
Painful that's the painful to watch for you

01:37:43.320 --> 01:37:45.320
I'm painful to watch

01:37:45.320 --> 01:37:53.320
But when you play, you know, when we're watching it's easier to see other mistakes when we're playing itself.

01:37:53.320 --> 01:37:55.320
It's always been like that.

01:37:55.320 --> 01:37:59.320
Yeah, it's easier when you're watching. You can see all the mistakes when you're playing.

01:37:59.320 --> 01:38:01.320
Everything's happening so fast.

01:38:01.320 --> 01:38:04.320
And you don't feel any pressure, you know.

01:38:04.320 --> 01:38:10.320
When you're playing, if you pressure, you're playing already both your game.

01:38:10.320 --> 01:38:14.600
Wild Canary, not Ballistics, but Crossbow can be coming in soon.

01:38:14.600 --> 01:38:21.400
Grubby is, yeah, we have Crossbow behind an archer. Grubby is also already on offense.

01:38:21.400 --> 01:38:25.880
This is gonna be really hard for Knoff to hold. He's got 44 seconds and so Castich himself.

01:38:25.880 --> 01:38:30.800
He does have the two-stable setup. He's considering a third stable, a third stable in the Blacksmith now,

01:38:30.800 --> 01:38:34.920
so he's really adding in the buildings. I don't think he's the kind we can support with three stables though.

01:38:34.920 --> 01:38:42.280
No, no, no, he's second only can't he has them on foot and he needs for triple seven record 20

01:38:42.280 --> 01:38:48.680
minimum at least 20 22 pounds. Yeah, cross was coming in.

01:38:51.400 --> 01:38:55.640
42 bills now from Grubby. He's got that fourth siege as well. Grubby's feeling very confident

01:38:55.640 --> 01:38:59.080
to go for the fourth siege. Normally, it's not really his style. He does it sometimes.

01:38:59.880 --> 01:39:02.120
But he's feeling really confident to disclose this game out.

01:39:04.920 --> 01:39:14.960
Oh, there's some loystery bills. This crossbow can actually get a lot of kills behind this

01:39:14.960 --> 01:39:17.120
woodland. That's gonna be really annoying for Knoth.

01:39:17.120 --> 01:39:22.120
There's no way to cook and stop this.

01:39:22.120 --> 01:39:27.080
Yeah, yeah. It does have three knights. Maybe you can do something to get armor, but Ethiopian

01:39:27.080 --> 01:39:30.720
crossbows that are firing faster in Grubby's hands. It's gonna be a micro-masterpiece,

01:39:30.720 --> 01:39:34.320
I think. I don't think Knoth is gonna even get a single crossbow by the looks of things.

01:39:34.320 --> 01:39:43.380
might let's see who killed one at least kill one now grab the gold heels yeah dude

01:39:43.380 --> 01:39:52.520
cross was a crazy good yeah I think it's one of the best units in the game

01:39:52.520 --> 01:40:01.120
it early cast they just probably the best unit in the game and yeah good luck

01:40:01.120 --> 01:40:06.520
with the rest. Wow guys, a pretty one-sided set here, 3-0 Grubby. We kind of expected this

01:40:06.520 --> 01:40:12.040
going in as far as the ELOs go, but I kind of just wish Knopf did a little bit more to

01:40:12.040 --> 01:40:16.240
counter Grubby's playstyle or to give him some chances to win. I feel like, you know,

01:40:16.240 --> 01:40:19.760
me and Death Knight were talking, the Franks was not exciting. Like, you have like almost

01:40:19.760 --> 01:40:23.600
0% chance to win with Franks. It's a very solid set, but it's not going to really help

01:40:23.600 --> 01:40:28.320
you against someone that's much stronger than you. In the Turks game, we wanted a forward

01:40:28.320 --> 01:40:32.440
castle and then of course in game one we had a few you thermally villagers so

01:40:32.440 --> 01:40:36.480
ended up not being the cleanest game but death note thanks for being with me man

01:40:36.480 --> 01:40:42.600
thanks for casting Grubby moves on what can you make of this match up thank you

01:40:42.600 --> 01:40:53.040
for this is me too yeah take care have a go on yeah yeah peace peace peace all

01:40:53.040 --> 01:40:56.840
right shadow death note for the co-cast pretty one sided there but that's

01:40:56.840 --> 01:40:58.160
It's completely fine.

01:40:58.160 --> 01:41:01.120
We have Grubby moving on against Uthermal.

01:41:01.120 --> 01:41:02.560
That set was supposed to happen yesterday.

01:41:02.560 --> 01:41:05.760
So that was just an appetizer for the main event today.

01:41:05.760 --> 01:41:06.720
So welcome everyone.

01:41:06.720 --> 01:41:09.320
Day three, or sorry, day three is completely done now.

01:41:09.320 --> 01:41:11.560
Day four, the final day, which is today,

01:41:11.560 --> 01:41:15.360
has officially begun, the top four in the tournament.

01:41:15.360 --> 01:41:18.360
Uthermal, Grubby, Pig, and Captain Lance.

01:41:18.360 --> 01:41:21.040
The funny thing is, these are the four captains.

01:41:21.040 --> 01:41:23.560
So we were all, you know, all said and done.

01:41:23.560 --> 01:41:25.040
We had Sing Sing pass the captains,

01:41:25.040 --> 01:41:28.640
We had Wagga looking good, but now it's the headliner.

01:41:28.640 --> 01:41:29.640
It's the top four.

01:41:29.640 --> 01:41:31.200
It's the captain's showdown.

01:41:31.200 --> 01:41:33.280
Let's figure out who is the best captain.

01:41:33.280 --> 01:41:34.800
I need a short five minute break here,

01:41:34.800 --> 01:41:35.800
so I'll take a quick break.

01:41:35.800 --> 01:41:36.960
We'll bring Knoff in here.

01:41:36.960 --> 01:41:38.520
He'll say a few words.

01:41:38.520 --> 01:41:41.280
And yeah, then he'll talk to you guys

01:41:41.280 --> 01:41:42.280
with the back in the background.

01:41:42.280 --> 01:41:43.280
I'll be right back in a few minutes,

01:41:43.280 --> 01:41:44.760
and we'll get started with the next set.

01:41:44.760 --> 01:41:45.800
And stay tuned.

01:41:55.040 --> 01:42:02.040
Oh, damn it.

01:42:02.040 --> 01:42:07.040
Yeah.

01:42:07.040 --> 01:42:15.040
Oh, man!

01:42:15.040 --> 01:42:16.040
Grubster!

01:42:16.040 --> 01:42:22.040
Doing work, or what?

01:42:22.040 --> 01:42:31.940
smokes yo chat what the heck yo guys thank you everyone okay I didn't know I

01:42:31.940 --> 01:42:39.200
was in here us chat or I mean in here a stream but guys if you see me I don't

01:42:39.200 --> 01:42:46.160
know but hopefully you hear me I just want to give everyone like I'm so happy

01:42:46.160 --> 01:42:52.720
happy to have been a part of this journey and it means a lot of me for all the support

01:42:52.720 --> 01:42:57.800
I got like also all the new followers that have been coming to my channel it's super

01:42:57.800 --> 01:43:04.400
super super good to see and it means a lot to me so you guys know that and I mean I'm

01:43:04.400 --> 01:43:11.800
not a full time streamer but this journey has been maybe the start of something new

01:43:11.800 --> 01:43:21.800
At least I will stream more regularly now, because I had a long break, and yeah, H1pires 2 is one of the most difficult games that I ever played.

01:43:21.800 --> 01:43:29.800
And yeah, my head has been working day and night to be able to catch up with all the knowledge.

01:43:29.800 --> 01:43:37.800
But yeah, without you guys that have been supporting and, you know, giving me advices after all my games,

01:43:37.800 --> 01:43:47.080
I don't think I would be enjoying the game as much as I have been doing now, so yeah, I'm really really happy about that.

01:43:47.080 --> 01:43:58.280
And I'm gonna continue to stream Agent Pirates too, so if you like what I've been showing so far,

01:43:58.280 --> 01:44:04.680
make sure you give me a follow, because I'm gonna be streaming more regularly from now on.

01:44:04.680 --> 01:44:14.120
So, yeah, I mean, it has been so much fun and also the games has been much higher quality and

01:44:16.440 --> 01:44:22.360
yeah, I mean, I think the guys in the tournament are showing like really high level here

01:44:23.480 --> 01:44:28.360
in the play. Like, I'm really surprised. I would not understand like,

01:44:28.360 --> 01:44:39.800
I would not believe it would be this kind of level of the skill that everyone has been showing.

01:44:39.800 --> 01:44:42.480
Hey, thank you for the follows and the thumbs, guys.

01:44:42.480 --> 01:44:43.480
Holy shit.

01:44:43.480 --> 01:44:44.480
Super happy.

01:44:44.480 --> 01:44:45.480
Hey, Knopf.

01:44:45.480 --> 01:44:46.480
How's it going?

01:44:46.480 --> 01:44:47.480
Hey!

01:44:47.480 --> 01:44:48.480
I don't know.

01:44:48.480 --> 01:44:49.480
You tell me!

01:44:49.480 --> 01:44:50.480
I'm out of the tournament!

01:44:50.480 --> 01:44:51.480
Yes, but how are you feeling taking part of this huge event?

01:44:51.480 --> 01:44:58.080
me. I was of the tournament. Yes, but how are you feeling taking part of this huge event?

01:44:58.600 --> 01:45:04.240
Honestly, I just want to say before any of this, congratulations. You had a beautiful,

01:45:04.240 --> 01:45:13.080
beautiful past up until now. I think top eight should be still a good result for you for

01:45:13.080 --> 01:45:18.000
someone that hasn't been playing this game before and just started a couple of weeks. I've

01:45:18.000 --> 01:45:23.120
been watching some of your streams and I had a lot of fun so congrats I hope you

01:45:23.120 --> 01:45:30.200
enjoyed the tournament yeah it has been awesome like I would not expect it to be

01:45:30.200 --> 01:45:35.040
this fun as it has been and yeah like the community nation fires too is

01:45:35.040 --> 01:45:39.000
something else I mean a lot of work at free and the community there as well but

01:45:39.000 --> 01:45:45.240
yeah this was something different and I'm really really happy to be a part of

01:45:45.240 --> 01:45:50.760
this and yeah this is just the beginning so you guys know because I'm gonna stream more age vampires

01:45:53.160 --> 01:45:59.560
I was actually answering um in the tournament discord to I think it was Wagat this morning

01:45:59.560 --> 01:46:08.040
when I saw he he said the exact same thing that um he's going to continue play and probably even

01:46:08.040 --> 01:46:15.400
stream a week for a while. You guys have no idea how nice that is to see. Not only that

01:46:15.400 --> 01:46:20.680
you guys enjoyed the event, because it's kind of sad that now the event, today is the last

01:46:20.680 --> 01:46:27.000
day, it's going to be great, I know that. But okay, the event is done afterwards. So

01:46:27.000 --> 01:46:33.720
you guys being so eager to continue being part of the community, I think it's so, I don't

01:46:33.720 --> 01:46:42.160
welcoming from everyone and for you guys to just stick around from our community

01:46:42.160 --> 01:46:48.600
to just have new people joining, learning, having new people on the ladder.

01:46:48.600 --> 01:46:58.440
It's great. Yeah, I agree and I mean I'm surprised how difficult this game is

01:46:58.440 --> 01:47:03.280
with all the different civilizations and all the micro that is in there and

01:47:03.280 --> 01:47:07.220
and also the decision-making, it's crazy.

01:47:07.220 --> 01:47:09.020
But that's also what makes it so good

01:47:09.020 --> 01:47:11.220
because every game is so different.

01:47:11.220 --> 01:47:15.060
And that's what I feel is one really good part

01:47:15.060 --> 01:47:19.340
about Age of Empires, that no game is gonna be the same.

01:47:19.340 --> 01:47:23.700
So it's very big variation and yeah,

01:47:23.700 --> 01:47:27.140
like it's a lot of different aspects in the game

01:47:27.140 --> 01:47:29.900
that makes it so good and so freaking interesting

01:47:29.900 --> 01:47:31.940
to watch as well.

01:47:31.940 --> 01:47:37.940
Definitely, I was talking with a couple of new viewers as well.

01:47:37.940 --> 01:47:43.220
I think what's nice about AOE is that it's so easy to just watch because it's so easy

01:47:43.220 --> 01:47:44.860
to figure out what's happening.

01:47:44.860 --> 01:47:47.940
I have this issue with watching other games.

01:47:47.940 --> 01:47:54.460
I've never played video games in my life until a couple of years ago when I discovered my

01:47:54.460 --> 01:47:57.540
inner passion for AOE.

01:47:57.540 --> 01:48:01.620
I feel like when I'm trying to watch other games, it's so difficult.

01:48:01.620 --> 01:48:04.420
I don't know, make up something or what's happening.

01:48:04.420 --> 01:48:06.220
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:48:06.220 --> 01:48:09.820
Yeah, well, I mean, it's probably, you know,

01:48:09.820 --> 01:48:11.660
for me, Workout 3 is my home game,

01:48:11.660 --> 01:48:15.860
so of course it's, like, it's really interesting

01:48:15.860 --> 01:48:17.420
to learn something new,

01:48:17.420 --> 01:48:20.420
but I would not understand if it would be so difficult.

01:48:21.420 --> 01:48:23.980
Maybe I thought I would be, you know,

01:48:23.980 --> 01:48:26.100
at least get a little bit better,

01:48:26.100 --> 01:48:28.500
but it's hard because I don't have anything to relate to,

01:48:28.500 --> 01:48:29.820
so I don't know if I'm like,

01:48:29.820 --> 01:48:35.460
my progress has been good or bad you know it's hard to say but yeah we'll see

01:48:35.460 --> 01:48:41.660
I'm enjoying it and I will continue to play so we'll see what's gonna be the

01:48:41.660 --> 01:48:53.500
next goal. Yo Knox! What's up bro? GG's! Yo! What's up? Tough match today but to be fair

01:48:53.500 --> 01:48:57.900
up against Grubby and I think you did pretty well overall for the tournament

01:48:57.900 --> 01:49:00.180
I think you should be proud of yourself.

01:49:00.180 --> 01:49:01.100
Yeah, thank you.

01:49:01.100 --> 01:49:02.300
I'm very glad to hear that.

01:49:02.300 --> 01:49:05.980
It has been one of the best times I have been doing

01:49:05.980 --> 01:49:09.460
gaming-wise, so I just want to give you a big thanks,

01:49:09.460 --> 01:49:13.420
and I'm super, super, super happy to be a part of this.

01:49:13.420 --> 01:49:15.700
I have been enjoying every moment of it,

01:49:15.700 --> 01:49:18.180
so yeah, I'm looking forward to the next games,

01:49:18.180 --> 01:49:21.380
and yeah, again, Agent Empires 2 is great,

01:49:21.380 --> 01:49:24.620
and I think you are for sure a really, really big part of it,

01:49:24.620 --> 01:49:27.100
so I'm super happy that you invited me to this,

01:49:27.100 --> 01:49:30.460
because it means a lot for me, so, you know.

01:49:30.460 --> 01:49:31.460
I appreciate that, man.

01:49:31.460 --> 01:49:32.420
Thank you for the kind words,

01:49:32.420 --> 01:49:34.220
and I'm really happy to have you here.

01:49:34.220 --> 01:49:35.980
We had a coaching session, you and I,

01:49:35.980 --> 01:49:37.860
many, many fans that you've had

01:49:37.860 --> 01:49:39.100
over your ranked ladder grind,

01:49:39.100 --> 01:49:41.660
so you certainly made a good impression

01:49:41.660 --> 01:49:42.500
in the AOT community,

01:49:42.500 --> 01:49:44.420
and I think you had a great tournament, man.

01:49:44.420 --> 01:49:46.260
We'll let you go now as you move to the next event.

01:49:46.260 --> 01:49:47.100
Yeah.

01:49:47.100 --> 01:49:47.940
Thank you so much.

01:49:47.940 --> 01:49:50.380
Any last words for the chat before you leave?

01:49:50.380 --> 01:49:55.100
Just again, I'm really happy about all the support.

01:49:55.100 --> 01:49:56.740
It has been crazy, every stream

01:49:56.740 --> 01:49:59.500
that I've been doing, everyone giving me advices

01:49:59.500 --> 01:50:01.260
and like how I can improve.

01:50:01.260 --> 01:50:05.380
So it has been also one reason for me to continue to play

01:50:05.380 --> 01:50:06.780
because I enjoy it so much.

01:50:06.780 --> 01:50:10.860
And I feel that the more I learn, the more fun it is.

01:50:10.860 --> 01:50:13.260
So yeah, big thanks again.

01:50:13.260 --> 01:50:14.900
And good luck with the rest, everyone,

01:50:14.900 --> 01:50:16.780
and hope you enjoyed the show.

01:50:16.780 --> 01:50:17.620
Thank you so much, Knopf.

01:50:17.620 --> 01:50:19.220
Take it easy, bro.

01:50:19.220 --> 01:50:20.300
Yeah, see you.

01:50:20.300 --> 01:50:21.140
Bye.

01:50:21.140 --> 01:50:21.980
See you.

01:50:21.980 --> 01:50:22.820
Have a good one.

01:50:22.820 --> 01:50:23.660
All right, before I talk with you,

01:50:23.660 --> 01:50:26.500
the Nell, let's say 07 in the chat, guys, Knopf.

01:50:26.500 --> 01:50:31.800
He had a good tournament. Honestly, even without the 8-trucks shenanigans, he gets top 8 after that round.

01:50:31.800 --> 01:50:36.400
It's a top 6 finish. That's a really good result. Fork-noff. Super solid for him.

01:50:36.400 --> 01:50:41.400
Like, it's really... He was one of the guys that performed the best for his elo especially.

01:50:41.400 --> 01:50:43.400
So, really, really, really well done there.

01:50:43.400 --> 01:50:48.400
Also, Waxi, he's got 20 gifted subs. We're making our way to that 9,000 sub goal.

01:50:48.400 --> 01:50:54.100
We're at 8,200 guys. If we get to 9,000, it's a King's Gauntlet confirmed number 2 for the next year.

01:50:54.100 --> 01:50:56.460
so we'll keep the show rolling with another edition.

01:50:58.940 --> 01:51:02.900
And okay, Mrs. Danila, thank you for being here.

01:51:02.900 --> 01:51:03.740
What's going on?

01:51:03.740 --> 01:51:05.140
Thank you for inviting me.

01:51:05.140 --> 01:51:05.980
Let's go.

01:51:05.980 --> 01:51:07.020
How's it going?

01:51:07.020 --> 01:51:08.300
Are you excited for today?

01:51:08.300 --> 01:51:09.260
I'm super excited.

01:51:09.260 --> 01:51:12.460
Today is officially starting the main event.

01:51:12.460 --> 01:51:14.660
So that Gruby Knoff set was actually

01:51:14.660 --> 01:51:15.940
the last set from yesterday.

01:51:15.940 --> 01:51:18.020
It's not a real final set.

01:51:18.020 --> 01:51:20.100
This is the top four of the event.

01:51:20.100 --> 01:51:21.460
This is the final day.

01:51:21.460 --> 01:51:23.020
We're gonna get started with Captain Lance

01:51:23.020 --> 01:51:24.540
versus Pig, by the way.

01:51:24.540 --> 01:51:28.260
Tampments versus Pig is the upper bracket final.

01:51:28.260 --> 01:51:30.580
Winner of that is waiting in the grand final

01:51:30.580 --> 01:51:33.100
without losing a set, which is crazy.

01:51:33.100 --> 01:51:35.500
The loser will drop to the loser bracket final,

01:51:35.500 --> 01:51:37.260
still a very prestigious place to be in.

01:51:37.260 --> 01:51:39.220
So these guys are the two best players

01:51:39.220 --> 01:51:41.100
determined so far as it stands,

01:51:41.100 --> 01:51:43.260
but of course later on we have Grubbini Thermal

01:51:43.260 --> 01:51:45.220
fighting the way from the loser bracket final.

01:51:45.220 --> 01:51:46.180
We have a Dutch showdown.

01:51:46.180 --> 01:51:48.660
So it could not be a more exciting finish.

01:51:48.660 --> 01:51:50.220
It's the four captains, the four people

01:51:50.220 --> 01:51:53.120
that were the best players going into the event

01:51:53.120 --> 01:51:54.560
and the four players that are the best players

01:51:54.560 --> 01:51:55.680
coming out of the event.

01:51:55.680 --> 01:51:56.760
And let's see how it goes.

01:51:56.760 --> 01:51:58.520
We're waiting for the cameras to get set up,

01:51:58.520 --> 01:52:00.720
but overall, I'm super excited here, Danny.

01:52:01.840 --> 01:52:02.760
I am too.

01:52:02.760 --> 01:52:06.880
And you know, what makes this set so even more excited

01:52:08.720 --> 01:52:10.760
is the fact that I believe these two

01:52:10.760 --> 01:52:14.920
are in the upper bracket final after two big upsets.

01:52:14.920 --> 01:52:18.120
Yeah, yeah, it's a fair point.

01:52:18.120 --> 01:52:18.960
It's a fair point.

01:52:18.960 --> 01:52:22.060
CapMalans are thermal, people had the thermal being the stronger player there, CapMalans

01:52:22.060 --> 01:52:27.120
were the 3-2, and then Grubby versus Pig, people had Grubby as a slightly better player,

01:52:27.120 --> 01:52:31.600
Pig kind of good strategies, but also solid gameplay and gets the upset there as well.

01:52:31.600 --> 01:52:36.400
So yeah, double upset for the upper bracket here, and the cool part about this by the

01:52:36.400 --> 01:52:42.960
way is that both Grubby and you thermal didn't play bad, like they actually had a good set,

01:52:42.960 --> 01:52:47.840
it was a 3-2 banger, it just shows that CapMalans or Pig are here to play and they're bringing

01:52:47.840 --> 01:52:51.920
the same level if not even a bit better than what we consider to be the two favorites going

01:52:51.920 --> 01:52:56.400
into this event and going into the bracket playoffs. So really, really interesting top

01:52:56.400 --> 01:52:59.520
four here. We're waiting for the cameras and we'll get started with Captain Lance versus

01:52:59.520 --> 01:53:04.720
Pegg with the upper bracket final right now. Yeah, I mean, honestly, just like you said,

01:53:04.720 --> 01:53:12.560
both semifinals going to five games, they were, in my opinion, the best set of yesterday. Guys,

01:53:12.560 --> 01:53:17.940
make sure you go into hairouts, YouTube VODs, Twitch VODs, anything and just re-watch if

01:53:17.940 --> 01:53:18.940
you haven't.

01:53:18.940 --> 01:53:20.820
Okay, you know the result already.

01:53:20.820 --> 01:53:25.220
I promise you the games are really worth watching back.

01:53:25.220 --> 01:53:32.220
Okay, I have them saved already to even watch later, so whenever I just want to be entertained.

01:53:32.220 --> 01:53:36.180
I also kind of want to watch after this entire event.

01:53:36.180 --> 01:53:41.500
Some of the days from your perspective and from with your co-casters because all I'm

01:53:41.500 --> 01:53:47.940
hearing is how good the event was, how hyped people were about the variety of

01:53:47.940 --> 01:53:52.420
co-casters, the players from other games joining, and just everyone having a good

01:53:52.420 --> 01:53:56.060
fun with the event. It's really fun to hear.

01:53:56.060 --> 01:54:01.060
Yeah, unfortunately we don't really have, we can see Pit on the camera there, it's hilarious,

01:54:01.060 --> 01:54:07.100
but he's doing some stretches, but Karate can count. Unfortunately we don't really have

01:54:07.100 --> 01:54:12.680
pig's camera beside like without his game so let me see if I can actually fix

01:54:12.680 --> 01:54:20.600
this one real quick it's gonna be tough though yeah I actually don't know if we

01:54:20.600 --> 01:54:25.020
can have pig camera it's gonna show his gameplay so that's not good so we might

01:54:25.020 --> 01:54:28.320
have to play without pig camera or maybe even without cameras at all this game

01:54:28.320 --> 01:54:35.200
actually yeah I think it's gonna be a no cams game this one because yeah it might

01:54:35.200 --> 01:54:41.400
We'll play no cams for this one, just because Picks' camera is not really working and having

01:54:41.400 --> 01:54:43.360
just Captain Lance, it feels weird.

01:54:43.360 --> 01:54:45.760
There might be a no cams game.

01:54:45.760 --> 01:54:46.760
He knows about the problem.

01:54:46.760 --> 01:54:51.240
I don't know if it's possible to fix.

01:54:51.240 --> 01:54:52.240
Let's see.

01:54:52.240 --> 01:54:53.240
Alright.

01:54:53.240 --> 01:54:54.240
It's fine.

01:54:54.240 --> 01:54:55.240
I think you're fine.

01:54:55.240 --> 01:54:56.240
One cam is fine.

01:54:56.240 --> 01:54:57.240
I mean.

01:54:57.240 --> 01:54:58.240
Okay.

01:54:58.240 --> 01:54:59.240
Yeah, sorry.

01:54:59.240 --> 01:55:00.240
Go ahead.

01:55:00.240 --> 01:55:03.240
One camera's fine.

01:55:03.240 --> 01:55:05.240
Okay, sorry, go ahead.

01:55:05.240 --> 01:55:07.240
Go ahead, you go ahead, you go ahead.

01:55:07.240 --> 01:55:12.240
No, in the meantime, I was just going to talk a tiny bit more about the final.

01:55:12.240 --> 01:55:15.240
Just like Hera said, this is the upper bracket final.

01:55:15.240 --> 01:55:20.240
It's very important to win this set.

01:55:20.240 --> 01:55:23.240
Also, first of all, you're going straight into the grand final.

01:55:23.240 --> 01:55:25.240
So it's good for your nerves.

01:55:25.240 --> 01:55:28.240
It gives you confidence, gives you like a boost.

01:55:28.240 --> 01:55:32.960
a boost but also you know the the loser of the set is actually going to have to play

01:55:34.080 --> 01:55:40.640
um another set which is the loser's bracket final and afterwards the grand final so

01:55:42.160 --> 01:55:49.360
yeah like going to go straight into a grand final with a lot of games played today

01:55:51.200 --> 01:55:55.040
um that's the advantage of the guy who doesn't lose right like the guy who doesn't lose yeah exactly

01:55:55.040 --> 01:56:06.040
He just plays one, he can chill, wash the other two, he can relax, he can scout, he can even prepare strategies he wants to, and he's got a huge advantage going to the Grand Final.

01:56:06.040 --> 01:56:17.040
No other advantage by the way besides this, there's no like 1-0 start for the Grand Final worth mentioning, but of course like you said Daniel, I think that just the rest thing is probably a pretty good advantage there.

01:56:17.040 --> 01:56:20.040
We have picked camera, very good, we have picked camera, very nice.

01:56:20.040 --> 01:56:32.040
I don't know what you have been saying that this and that, all I'm seeing is the flawless, yeah.

01:56:32.040 --> 01:56:41.040
Alright, they got the thing that they can start. It's going to be Pig vs. Captain Lance. We talked a lot about their journeys here and what's at stake today.

01:56:41.040 --> 01:56:46.040
This is the upper bracket final, the most prestigious part of the tournament and the best position to be in.

01:56:46.040 --> 01:56:52.040
I actually haven't done this for any other round, but this is about to start.

01:56:52.040 --> 01:56:55.040
Type the name of the person that you want to see winning here.

01:56:55.040 --> 01:56:58.040
Pig or Lance, who are you supporting in the chat?

01:56:58.040 --> 01:57:00.040
Let me see it, Twitch and YouTube.

01:57:00.040 --> 01:57:03.040
We got over 10,000 people watching between the two platforms.

01:57:03.040 --> 01:57:07.040
We got a little bit of that, 3,500 on YouTube, 8,500 plus on Twitch.

01:57:07.040 --> 01:57:08.040
Got a ton of people here.

01:57:08.040 --> 01:57:10.040
Pig or Lance, let's see it in the chat.

01:57:10.040 --> 01:57:14.040
I see a lot more for Pig actually, but Lance also has some fans there.

01:57:14.040 --> 01:57:17.880
So it seems to be a little, you know, maybe split down the center, slightly favoring Pig.

01:57:17.880 --> 01:57:23.560
I see a few guys saying Viper, a couple of people saying Grubby, if I was typing, I'd

01:57:23.560 --> 01:57:25.880
probably say Grubby in the chat as well.

01:57:25.880 --> 01:57:29.160
You guys know this, but let's see how it goes.

01:57:29.160 --> 01:57:33.600
And both of these guys with a nice little upset in the last round, Daniela, we had a

01:57:33.600 --> 01:57:36.760
dream upper bracket semis, 3-2, 3-2.

01:57:36.760 --> 01:57:38.920
I'm hoping this one goes to five games.

01:57:38.920 --> 01:57:42.360
What is kind of your prediction going into this one between Captain Lance and Pig?

01:57:42.360 --> 01:57:48.860
Obviously the surprising matchup in the upper bracket final as far as what we're thinking, but these guys showed a very very nice quality in the previous rounds

01:57:48.860 --> 01:57:50.860
What do you feel in between these two players?

01:57:51.240 --> 01:57:57.440
I'm definitely hoping for a 3-2 as well. I think that the balance

01:57:58.120 --> 01:58:02.440
Inclined slightly in pig's favor, but honestly at this point here

01:58:02.440 --> 01:58:08.360
I don't even know what to say anymore. Yesterday. I was so sure that you thermal is the heavy favorite

01:58:08.360 --> 01:58:14.760
but even the chat was telling me then no way Captain Lance has this like he got

01:58:14.760 --> 01:58:20.600
to 1600 only but he got to 1600 on a walking pad and I'm like what no way

01:58:20.600 --> 01:58:24.760
yeah really interesting that he was like wearing a treadmill he's playing

01:58:24.760 --> 01:58:29.840
random steps all the good stuff you know so yeah so like some of these players

01:58:29.840 --> 01:58:36.720
are just wild cards you know I'm I'm just excited to see what has he been

01:58:36.720 --> 01:58:41.140
preparing for today maybe maybe some hidden strategies for the finals who knows

01:58:41.140 --> 01:58:44.460
yeah so one thing I want to talk about before we hop in here of course the

01:58:44.460 --> 01:58:48.140
players are setting up I gave them the signal to start but as they're about to

01:58:48.140 --> 01:58:53.180
launch the game captain Lance is both predictable and unpredictable at the

01:58:53.180 --> 01:58:57.460
same time he's been he's predictable in the sense that he's usually not gonna

01:58:57.460 --> 01:59:00.980
play a meta game he's always gonna try something different something aggressive

01:59:00.980 --> 01:59:05.260
some kind of forward castle some kind of fast dip something to really throw the

01:59:05.260 --> 01:59:09.580
game off. This is unpredictable because you don't know what he's going to do but

01:59:09.580 --> 01:59:12.180
it's also predictable because you know he's going to do something. At least

01:59:12.180 --> 01:59:17.340
that's kind of the mentality that Pig has going into this one. And I stayed up a

01:59:17.340 --> 01:59:21.940
little late last night. I was watching Pig get coaching from survivalist. I'm

01:59:21.940 --> 01:59:26.140
not going to spoil anything obviously but they are working on counters to the

01:59:26.140 --> 01:59:31.380
Captain Land style. That's crazy. Having a coach with you and Pig having the time

01:59:31.380 --> 01:59:36.180
and the presence of mind to the day before the event prepares some strategies

01:59:36.180 --> 01:59:39.700
prepares some counters to what Capmullence is throwing that's a fantastic

01:59:39.700 --> 01:59:44.220
position to be in. So just some context before we hop in and here we go game one

01:59:44.220 --> 01:59:51.980
starting. Yeah we talked a little bit yesterday about how good it is to

01:59:51.980 --> 01:59:57.340
you know just stick to a strat and improve it which I was surprised to not

01:59:57.340 --> 02:00:03.180
see more players kind of thinking about a strat to counter Cumans, which Captain Lance

02:00:03.180 --> 02:00:06.300
seems to have been favoriting on Fortress.

02:00:06.300 --> 02:00:10.100
Yeah, it's not going to be the Cumans actually, which is a little surprising.

02:00:10.100 --> 02:00:11.940
He's really changing this up.

02:00:11.940 --> 02:00:14.740
Cap Lance showing that he can actually just play a bunch of different styles, but here

02:00:14.740 --> 02:00:15.740
we go, guys.

02:00:15.740 --> 02:00:18.860
Welcome in to game number one between Pig and Captain Lance.

02:00:18.860 --> 02:00:22.500
It's going to be Red side Fortress, of course, as all game ones have been on the King's

02:00:22.500 --> 02:00:23.500
Gauntlet so far.

02:00:23.500 --> 02:00:24.500
Fantastic tournaments.

02:00:24.500 --> 02:00:28.520
that has exceeded all expectations, at least the ones that I had for the event.

02:00:28.520 --> 02:00:32.760
Here we go, random, sorry not random, but pig random, let's say pig.

02:00:32.760 --> 02:00:37.680
Playing as the Portuguese, his trusted civilization for Redisiforchus, he has never changed this,

02:00:37.680 --> 02:00:39.600
despite losing against Mr. Llama,

02:00:39.600 --> 02:00:42.560
so some crazy ram rush, he's stuck with the Portuguese.

02:00:42.560 --> 02:00:45.700
Captain Lance is trying something he hasn't shown before, the Britons,

02:00:45.700 --> 02:00:48.800
which has been played by a couple other players, but not from Lance himself.

02:00:48.800 --> 02:00:51.560
Daniel, we talked about the Cumans not being played for Captain Lance.

02:00:51.560 --> 02:00:56.560
He's played that the last three times, he's played Reds of Fortress, but for the upper bracket final, he switched it up with the Britons.

02:00:56.560 --> 02:00:59.560
What are we expecting here from the Britons from Mr. Lance?

02:01:01.060 --> 02:01:09.360
Honestly, probably just something like a wag at it yesterday, a nice calm boom going to late game.

02:01:09.360 --> 02:01:15.360
I feel like on close maps, that's where you want to get to with Britons.

02:01:15.360 --> 02:01:22.360
maybe just a death ball of longbowman and warwolf trebs.

02:01:22.360 --> 02:01:31.680
And I think the Britons will just have a smooth boom on close maps.

02:01:31.680 --> 02:01:33.840
They do want to go to that late game.

02:01:33.840 --> 02:01:39.400
And I don't know, I think Portuguese might want to try to stop that.

02:01:39.400 --> 02:01:43.640
I would like to see maybe some sort of aggression or a push in

02:01:44.980 --> 02:01:46.280
Castle age from him

02:01:46.280 --> 02:01:51.040
Oh, so you'd like to see Portuguese go for the early push in Castle not let the Britons get that boom to late game

02:01:51.400 --> 02:01:57.960
Makes a lot of sense. I'm just not sure if Pig has done anything in that regard like pig has only done one thing on rest of fortress

02:01:57.960 --> 02:02:02.660
It's a 4 TC boom and Daniela. I I see him as a discipline discipline player

02:02:02.660 --> 02:02:06.660
I don't see him moving from that so with this context of a 4 TC boom from pig

02:02:06.660 --> 02:02:11.300
What would Portuguese, you know have against Britain's I mean that's a few options

02:02:11.300 --> 02:02:15.540
I can talk a little bit here like Bomber Tens in late game, you know potentially

02:02:16.420 --> 02:02:21.620
Maybe a ramp push, but I feel like besides that the Britain late game is kind of better with like a long bowman

02:02:21.620 --> 02:02:24.920
Just killing everything that Portuguese tends to make I'm not sure

02:02:25.940 --> 02:02:33.340
Yeah, exactly. So what I think I would like the most not a push in Catholic, but maybe a fast imp approach from

02:02:33.340 --> 02:02:39.680
go for a go for a timing go for a castle forward just like you said they do have

02:02:39.680 --> 02:02:43.360
access to to great bomber cannons of course they're unique tech a guy that

02:02:43.360 --> 02:02:48.080
gives them better accuracy on the moving targets it's expensive maybe with a fast

02:02:48.080 --> 02:02:53.400
stem you don't really go for that but just a trap and bomber cannons push and

02:02:53.400 --> 02:02:58.760
just take Britain's by surprise because like you said in a leg game I feel like

02:02:58.760 --> 02:03:06.560
Longbows? Tough to counter. Especially if you don't have E-Dram. Okay, they do have

02:03:06.560 --> 02:03:14.100
Rams, but you don't have kept Rams. And yeah, C-Dram seems to be kind of like the death of

02:03:14.100 --> 02:03:18.540
Britons. Yeah, that's a deciding factor. That's what makes Rams worth going for. If you have the C-Dram

02:03:18.540 --> 02:03:22.340
upgrade, of course, Portuguese, they don't get access to that. In the Age of Empires 2, we have a

02:03:22.340 --> 02:03:26.380
technology tree for every civilization. So you get some SIVs. You know, some SIVs get certain

02:03:26.380 --> 02:03:30.160
attacks, others have donated Portuguese, probably have to lean towards some kind of

02:03:30.160 --> 02:03:32.840
bomber cannon for their siege, maybe a couple of trebuchets.

02:03:32.840 --> 02:03:37.160
Captain Lance is going up a standard opening here, Portuguese going a little

02:03:37.160 --> 02:03:40.180
later and this is actually kind of standard for what he's trying to do.

02:03:40.180 --> 02:03:43.920
Captain Lance will do a 3 TC boom initially and then work his way towards

02:03:43.920 --> 02:03:47.800
a 4 TC boom as you can see he's already on the stone. He's taking 10 gold by the

02:03:47.800 --> 02:03:50.960
way, he's going to sell a hundredth stone and that's going to be the way he gets up

02:03:50.960 --> 02:03:54.360
to the next stage. So actually really cool from Captain Lance, they're trying out some

02:03:54.360 --> 02:03:59.060
some spicy builds here instead of going for the mining cap on the gold that would be considered standard

02:03:59.060 --> 02:04:04.620
But he's working the 3 TC boom into the fourth later and pig is just gonna go directly into the four TC's

02:04:05.020 --> 02:04:08.780
Actually, don't know what's better. So I'm kind of be curious to see the Ville count myself for this game

02:04:09.140 --> 02:04:14.840
But it looks like it's gonna be a standard approach from both players in the sense that it's gonna be a only economic approach

02:04:15.020 --> 02:04:17.900
No fast nymph nothing crazy at least in the get-go

02:04:17.900 --> 02:04:22.800
Oops, I think I muted my stick.

02:04:22.800 --> 02:04:29.160
This is what we were saying yesterday about these players and their build orders.

02:04:29.160 --> 02:04:34.520
Feels like, Captain Lance, okay, I don't have the insight, you know, like I don't know how

02:04:34.520 --> 02:04:39.680
many times he practiced this build order, but it feels like, if this is, I don't know,

02:04:39.680 --> 02:04:46.640
even top five times he practices this, okay, I understand, these are all super players

02:04:46.640 --> 02:04:51.120
in other games, but I still find it very impressive.

02:04:51.120 --> 02:04:59.720
He's pulling builders long distance, getting 10 gold, preparing for a 40C boom with a 22

02:04:59.720 --> 02:05:04.680
plus 2 bitager count, it's really nice to see.

02:05:04.680 --> 02:05:05.680
Really sharp builders.

02:05:05.680 --> 02:05:09.920
This is not something you'll see from the average 1600-1700 elo player.

02:05:09.920 --> 02:05:13.440
This is clearly someone that is a lethal in another game, coming in, potentially getting

02:05:13.440 --> 02:05:16.560
some coaching, preparing a nice strategy, and honestly actually going to get

02:05:16.560 --> 02:05:20.680
perfectly like virtually no idle time here for Captain Lance. This is different

02:05:20.680 --> 02:05:23.880
than some of the earlier players that we've had on this tournament. Some of the

02:05:23.880 --> 02:05:27.660
other guys have had a lot of idle PC in in Dark Age, but here in the upper bracket

02:05:27.660 --> 02:05:30.800
final this is the best of the best that we've had in this tournament so far, so

02:05:30.800 --> 02:05:35.080
we can expect very clean build leaders, and they are certainly delivering. King is

02:05:35.080 --> 02:05:39.120
safe behind the walls now, so no crazy King snipe, at least for the time being.

02:05:39.120 --> 02:05:42.720
Pegasus is going to be going up later. This is of course by design. He wants to

02:05:42.720 --> 02:05:47.100
just jump straight into that three TC boom. That's why he's got a few extra on gold here

02:05:47.100 --> 02:05:52.740
to buy that, that the third hundred stone that he needs for that fourth TC.

02:05:52.740 --> 02:06:00.420
No one got inspired from Grubby's suggestion of feudal age rushing to stive their king.

02:06:00.420 --> 02:06:08.020
Yeah, not quite anyone crazy enough to try that one. We have seen a king dying Dark Ages

02:06:08.020 --> 02:06:11.380
the spiffing Brit, but that was more of like a suicide than it was really anything forced

02:06:11.380 --> 02:06:15.540
from the opponent. Camelons, it's Kasselich, 3 TC, boom,

02:06:15.540 --> 02:06:17.580
gonna get started, yeah, very nice.

02:06:17.580 --> 02:06:18.660
You could have won the fourth, actually.

02:06:18.660 --> 02:06:20.180
If you want to go for the fourth, you could.

02:06:20.180 --> 02:06:22.020
But NTCs are cheaper in terms of wood.

02:06:22.020 --> 02:06:25.660
Wow, 4 TC right away, but he's way faster than Pig.

02:06:25.660 --> 02:06:27.160
This is crazy from lands.

02:06:28.100 --> 02:06:29.460
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

02:06:29.460 --> 02:06:30.820
It's really, really good.

02:06:30.820 --> 02:06:35.300
And it's all of that wood that he's saving, basically,

02:06:35.300 --> 02:06:40.300
he made three extra TCs with the cost of one and a half,

02:06:40.300 --> 02:07:08.740
of

02:07:08.740 --> 02:07:12.220
more analytical folk in the chat might be interested to hear what I'm about to

02:07:12.220 --> 02:07:16.540
say here it takes six farms to keep one town center running all right six farms

02:07:16.540 --> 02:07:19.660
per one town center that's like the general rough estimates for age of

02:07:19.660 --> 02:07:23.660
umpires to you boom so in general for four town centers you need six times four

02:07:23.660 --> 02:07:28.580
so you need 24 farms of course Kaplanth is nowhere near 24 farms he has only nine

02:07:28.580 --> 02:07:31.780
right now but that's where the bank of food that he has him earlier helps him

02:07:31.780 --> 02:07:35.660
she's gonna be able to make villagers with that bank of food whilst he brushes

02:07:35.660 --> 02:07:40.220
to 24 farms. That's why you don't see him anything on gold, nothing on stone, he doesn't

02:07:40.220 --> 02:07:44.500
need those resources right now. His main concern is setting up those 24 farms so you can keep

02:07:44.500 --> 02:07:48.980
making villagers from 4 town centers undisturbed and uninterrupted with no idle time. That's

02:07:48.980 --> 02:07:53.300
his main game plan and we're seeing Peg do the exact same thing a little bit later because

02:07:53.300 --> 02:07:59.260
he has like a slower sift to get going, but he does squeeze in the heavy plow. So while

02:07:59.260 --> 02:08:03.060
he's later he at least gets that extra economy upgrade which I'm not sure if that's worth

02:08:03.060 --> 02:08:09.660
or not guess we'll find out yeah I'm honestly surprised that pig was able to

02:08:09.660 --> 02:08:15.580
afford the both the wood and the food upgrade anyway he's got them he has

02:08:15.580 --> 02:08:21.100
plenty of food in the bank but I guess that's the advantage of going couple of

02:08:21.100 --> 02:08:25.580
villagers later yeah I mean you're gonna have those extra those bills working

02:08:25.580 --> 02:08:29.100
while you're going up to the next stage you're gonna have some extra resources

02:08:29.100 --> 02:08:32.680
that will allow you to go, you know, the extra mile.

02:08:32.680 --> 02:08:34.980
Yeah, I don't like this village on stone.

02:08:34.980 --> 02:08:37.780
I know it's just one, but that's like going against the game plan here.

02:08:37.780 --> 02:08:41.080
Three on gold, again, maybe we can get those pulled onto farms,

02:08:41.080 --> 02:08:44.680
or maybe we can use the market, maybe the market can help us, you know, buy some food, buy some wood,

02:08:44.680 --> 02:08:47.680
set up those farms, but nonetheless, both players are booming,

02:08:47.680 --> 02:08:50.180
small village here early for Captain Lance,

02:08:50.180 --> 02:08:53.100
but as you can see, two minutes and a half of idle TC time for him,

02:08:53.100 --> 02:08:57.600
so he struggled to get to those 24 farms, but now look at him, 27 farms.

02:08:57.600 --> 02:09:03.620
I expect to see no adult to see or at least very minimal adult to see from this point on was freelance up until this point

02:09:03.620 --> 02:09:08.120
It's acceptable and from now on it's unacceptable and he should maintain that seven village lead

02:09:08.680 --> 02:09:12.960
For pretty much the rest of the game at least until both players max out their will pop their will pop

02:09:14.320 --> 02:09:19.220
Exactly whereas pig I do expect to start struggling soon. He doesn't have that extra wood

02:09:19.920 --> 02:09:21.680
and

02:09:21.680 --> 02:09:22.800
yeah

02:09:22.800 --> 02:09:24.800
invested all of those extras in

02:09:24.800 --> 02:09:33.360
more eco- upgrades, maybe that build difference is even going to increase further for capitalness.

02:09:33.360 --> 02:09:38.660
Yeah, let's see. So far it's pretty reasonable. Both players are just booming up. We'll talk

02:09:38.660 --> 02:09:42.120
about late game options in a second here, but I do want to talk about the fact that nobody's

02:09:42.120 --> 02:09:46.840
going for the relics. This is something that would be considered a cardinal sin for someone

02:09:46.840 --> 02:09:51.360
like Grubby. Grubby has always went for the relics. Some people went for a massive push.

02:09:51.360 --> 02:09:56.560
instead of, you know, ignoring the relics, ignoring the boom. We saw that from Mr. Lama, we saw that a little bit from Wagamama.

02:09:57.360 --> 02:10:02.360
But in this game, it's just boom, and no relics, no pushing. And of course, they have scouted most of the relics,

02:10:02.860 --> 02:10:06.860
but no monastery yet. This is standard. If you go for the monastery too early, you can't make the farms.

02:10:06.860 --> 02:10:10.360
So normally you want to make the farms first, and then you want to make the monastery.

02:10:10.360 --> 02:10:14.360
So here, Captain Lance, he can easily squeeze in a monastery now, and now he's got the farm set up,

02:10:14.360 --> 02:10:16.360
and play for those relics if you wanted to.

02:10:16.360 --> 02:10:19.360
Oh, yeah, absolutely.

02:10:19.360 --> 02:10:21.520
And that's actually a very good point.

02:10:21.520 --> 02:10:26.520
It's very curious that none of them are even thinking about it now.

02:10:26.520 --> 02:10:33.800
Now, Wood is kind of starting to pile up and someone like Grubby was already with the monastery.

02:10:33.800 --> 02:10:38.560
I'm kind of looking around, but yeah, it's a funny approach.

02:10:38.560 --> 02:10:41.160
Ah, while I'm saying this, it is putting down a monastery.

02:10:41.160 --> 02:10:42.160
It goes to the monastery.

02:10:42.160 --> 02:10:48.480
And it is worth mentioning that both of these approaches are completely fine and playable like you can open boom first and relics later

02:10:48.480 --> 02:10:53.520
You can open three CCs and get relics first both these approaches are playable even in pro play

02:10:53.520 --> 02:10:55.000
We see a mix of these strategies

02:10:55.000 --> 02:11:01.060
Actually, the relic contesting is usually a bit more meta and pro play just because if you if you slip on

02:11:01.240 --> 02:11:06.220
Contesting the relics the other guy would just grab all five really quickly in this tournament the players are not quite pros

02:11:06.220 --> 02:11:07.720
Despite being very strong players

02:11:07.720 --> 02:11:14.240
So, you know while they have a really good boom and whatnot chances are they're not gonna be the most efficient and hit the perfect timing of

02:11:14.240 --> 02:11:16.560
Snagging all the relics, but overall so far so good

02:11:16.840 --> 02:11:19.680
Pickers doing a nice job walling here and so was Lance. I like this

02:11:20.520 --> 02:11:26.380
Yeah, I like it too. And while we were talking a tiny bit earlier about the eco upgrades. I'm looking at their boom

02:11:26.380 --> 02:11:34.940
I see 38 specifically 33 on on food for both of them. Yeah, that's exactly what I was going to talk about the wheelbarrow

02:11:34.940 --> 02:11:41.220
When you're getting to this amount of farms, wheelbarrow is a very important upgrade for

02:11:41.220 --> 02:11:48.180
your farms to grab because it doesn't just increase the speed of the villagers moving

02:11:48.180 --> 02:11:49.180
on the farm.

02:11:49.180 --> 02:11:54.400
You will notice that they tend to move a lot, so it affects them the most, but also the

02:11:54.400 --> 02:11:55.900
carry capacity.

02:11:55.900 --> 02:12:02.500
So all of the eco in terms of food is going to be entirely more efficient.

02:12:02.500 --> 02:12:08.100
Yeah, yeah, Bluebarrow. It helps all your villagers, but it helps mostly for the farmers that move around a lot.

02:12:08.100 --> 02:12:14.500
And here we go. Especially first kill of the game, Pig is looking to capitalize on the mistake from Captain Lan's first blood.

02:12:15.140 --> 02:12:21.140
Pig heals that longbow and poor guy to sit in their bow out of his hand, dead on the ground, scout backs up.

02:12:21.620 --> 02:12:26.260
That's pretty good. That's a free unit that he's picked up for basically no reasons. It's a free

02:12:26.260 --> 02:12:32.140
Longbow dead, Camelance replaces him, makes a few more, Camelance does, though does have

02:12:32.140 --> 02:12:37.680
more res in the bank and more res collected, so it might be the first in the faster player

02:12:37.680 --> 02:12:38.680
towards imp.

02:12:38.680 --> 02:12:45.340
I actually wondered by the way, so yesterday night, Pig, he was practicing an anti-cuban

02:12:45.340 --> 02:12:52.080
strategy on this map, and I wondered if Captain Lance sniped at stream, saw that Pig was practicing

02:12:52.080 --> 02:12:57.120
that and pick the Britons instead. Or maybe he just wanted to switch it up anyways, but

02:12:57.120 --> 02:13:01.520
it is kind of cool that Pig was actually planning an anti-human strategy and now he's been completely

02:13:01.520 --> 02:13:06.560
surprised by the Britons. I'm quite interested to see what Pig can do to adapt on the fly

02:13:06.560 --> 02:13:10.400
here, but Catlabs up to Imperial is a little faster. Pig though has clicked himself, hand

02:13:10.400 --> 02:13:13.600
care for both players, looking pretty even so far, Danila.

02:13:13.600 --> 02:13:20.280
Yeah, I'm just waiting to see what pig's unit of choice is going to be because

02:13:22.160 --> 02:13:27.060
What even open in his in his shoes right now, do you just go straight up for for scrims?

02:13:27.060 --> 02:13:31.400
I see the armor upgrade on the cavalry, but not a big fan of that for now

02:13:32.240 --> 02:13:34.240
Yeah, if you can cavalry opening

02:13:35.240 --> 02:13:39.640
Village round here putting a scout. I actually think pig wins this. Yeah, pig wins this

02:13:39.640 --> 02:13:41.640
Oh, who's that can kill?

02:13:41.640 --> 02:13:46.640
Dude, bigger than Warlord man, he's coming, he's coming to play in this fine morning.

02:13:46.640 --> 02:13:51.640
Uh, looks like it's gonna be in for both players with a cavalry based opening early for Portuguese.

02:13:51.640 --> 02:13:55.640
I actually don't hate the cavalry, but I don't like that he's opening with it.

02:13:55.640 --> 02:14:00.640
So, in general, if you have the choice between opening with a melee unit and opening with a ranged unit,

02:14:00.640 --> 02:14:04.640
if your melee unit is not your hyper carry, and in this case, you don't get palleted with Portuguese,

02:14:04.640 --> 02:14:08.640
you also don't get Hissar, so if it's not your hyper carry, I don't think you should open with it.

02:14:08.640 --> 02:14:12.220
should open with it. I think it's always best to open with the ranged unit that can trade

02:14:12.220 --> 02:14:17.220
a little bit, kind of poke and hit and run, and then bring out the cavalry later. If you

02:14:17.220 --> 02:14:21.340
open with the cavalry, you can't really take a fight unless you can sweep the fight. And

02:14:21.340 --> 02:14:26.660
sometimes you just don't have the numbers to sweep the fight. So I would much rather

02:14:26.660 --> 02:14:31.860
see a Sturm opening from Pig rather than the cavalry, and maybe he's changed his mind

02:14:31.860 --> 02:14:37.660
is making some rangers now now in the same time I'm not entirely sure how

02:14:37.660 --> 02:14:45.180
captain lands how familiar he is with well pigs strategy or what he expects

02:14:45.180 --> 02:14:50.900
from him or if he watched any of his previous games or anything because it

02:14:50.900 --> 02:14:55.780
seemed that yesterday in his games captain lands was very prepared against

02:14:55.780 --> 02:14:59.180
What was coming forward sing opened?

02:15:00.500 --> 02:15:03.000
Wait was it sing no sing plate versus

02:15:03.980 --> 02:15:05.980
Sink played waga

02:15:06.780 --> 02:15:13.740
Yeah, yeah, exactly exactly was sing versus waga my bed, but waga was very prepared against the

02:15:14.660 --> 02:15:18.980
Hussar line opening so he opens straight up like whereas Captain Lance right now

02:15:18.980 --> 02:15:22.060
I don't even think he expects Calvary from Portuguese

02:15:22.060 --> 02:15:25.940
Yeah, dude, Camp Lantz is playing a little bit weird by the way, like he's adding an

02:15:25.940 --> 02:15:31.620
Arranges right now, he's also making Lombos, but I don't understand Arranges at all.

02:15:31.620 --> 02:15:41.220
I think the cavalry and the Leica from Britain is maybe some expectation of skirmishes, for

02:15:41.220 --> 02:15:42.220
Pave.

02:15:42.220 --> 02:15:46.380
Yeah, I think that's just happening, so Camp Lantz is kind of doing a bunch of things

02:15:46.380 --> 02:15:49.940
blind, which I don't really like, but let's try to tap into his mind a little bit.

02:15:49.940 --> 02:15:51.940
He's going to open Longbow for his main unit.

02:15:51.940 --> 02:15:55.140
He expects you to see skirmishers from Pig, which is actually a correct read.

02:15:55.140 --> 02:15:59.340
That's typically what you do expect against Britons, so he's preparing just his own

02:15:59.340 --> 02:16:00.780
Light Cab to start things off.

02:16:00.780 --> 02:16:01.780
I don't understand the Rangers.

02:16:01.780 --> 02:16:02.780
I don't think they do anything.

02:16:02.780 --> 02:16:04.620
I will see what he decides to go for.

02:16:04.620 --> 02:16:06.580
Maybe Elite Skirm could come up from him as well.

02:16:06.580 --> 02:16:09.060
Again, I don't think you really need that, but fair enough.

02:16:09.060 --> 02:16:12.780
But it looks like the Light Cab is just in preparation for the skirmishers that he knows

02:16:12.780 --> 02:16:13.780
Pig is going for.

02:16:13.780 --> 02:16:14.780
And he's right.

02:16:14.780 --> 02:16:17.300
Pig is going for some skirm.

02:16:17.300 --> 02:16:21.060
You know what, I really like the stone walls.

02:16:21.060 --> 02:16:24.260
I feel like I expected to see more people.

02:16:24.260 --> 02:16:29.740
Well, with Britons, you kind of want to keep your stone for castles as well, though.

02:16:29.740 --> 02:16:35.380
But it's one less thing to worry about the rates.

02:16:35.380 --> 02:16:40.860
You get so much space, you can farm there, you get a gold secure in those walls.

02:16:40.860 --> 02:16:47.060
even probably if you had scouted, which she did could probably expand to the wood line

02:16:47.060 --> 02:16:51.660
and then to georgia of the map to include the stone as well, but I like that.

02:16:51.660 --> 02:16:55.860
Yeah, and honestly, even if you need to save the stone for the castles, this is a very small

02:16:55.860 --> 02:16:56.860
investment.

02:16:56.860 --> 02:17:02.060
This is like what, like it's five stone per wall, 44 walls or so, it's like 220 stone.

02:17:02.060 --> 02:17:06.260
It's not that much stone to secure the entire map and prevent yourself from getting raided.

02:17:06.260 --> 02:17:07.740
I think it's a good way to play it out.

02:17:07.740 --> 02:17:11.360
Like you said if you secure the stone even better, but even so it's still fine

02:17:11.860 --> 02:17:18.080
He's gonna get that center of the map as well. So long bow plus like have I was kind of right that the two ranges were kind of useless

02:17:18.080 --> 02:17:24.200
But fair enough he's going for a great composition and one that's hard to deal with so pig is opening skirmishers

02:17:24.200 --> 02:17:28.880
He's also opening bombards, but the unit I don't like from pig is

02:17:30.780 --> 02:17:33.500
The like have I think it has to be I

02:17:34.260 --> 02:17:37.220
Think it has to be Cavalier something a little stronger to be honest

02:17:37.740 --> 02:17:41.940
Yeah, because like we we kind of judged the

02:17:42.540 --> 02:17:49.620
Cav armor on the way up. I was thinking well if captain is just going to go a small group of longboes Cavaliers going to do

02:17:49.740 --> 02:17:56.420
Fantastic, yes all of that, but no he opened like have and now that's not a small mass of Longo men the elite

02:17:56.420 --> 02:18:02.460
They're 27 of them. They're fully upgraded while Peg is only getting now the elite skirmup grid and

02:18:03.060 --> 02:18:05.780
Forging only which is only one attack in one range

02:18:05.780 --> 02:18:09.940
extra from what they base health yeah fletchings they like we're missing

02:18:09.940 --> 02:18:13.340
bodkin bracer you even have chemistry we do have chemistry the bomb is coming out

02:18:13.340 --> 02:18:17.340
pig needs a lot of upgrades but Captain Lance has kind of given him the time

02:18:17.340 --> 02:18:20.540
what I want to see from pig is just get all your upgrades don't fight before

02:18:20.540 --> 02:18:24.020
those guys come in if you don't have your upgrades you're gonna have no chance

02:18:24.020 --> 02:18:27.260
fighting into this army like they have the already on the skirmishers Captain

02:18:27.260 --> 02:18:30.700
Lance feeling great about his choice to mix in that light cavalry and he's in a

02:18:30.700 --> 02:18:35.300
force to hand of pig force him to show the massive light cab just to come out

02:18:35.300 --> 02:18:41.300
here and save these skirmishers skirmishers of course very ineffective against light cavalry and Lance now sees this and

02:18:41.300 --> 02:18:47.460
leaves the market to adapt his game plan big like a push though like a ram this could be deadly here for a pig

02:18:48.940 --> 02:18:51.760
Yeah, I would like him to continue producing

02:18:52.580 --> 02:18:59.340
Ram's though they soak a lot of damage especially from the longbowmen and well castles anything ranged

02:18:59.340 --> 02:19:06.060
And you do have bomber cannons there kind of sneaking in getting some good shots on that castle that is denied by the way

02:19:06.220 --> 02:19:10.760
And did deny it can't last actually the Kansas by castle with that 88%

02:19:10.760 --> 02:19:17.260
So that's like only 12% of the stone going back to the stockpile a good good play from from pig. What are you seeing Danny?

02:19:18.180 --> 02:19:23.340
Yeah, well that I was surprised, but I am understanding that that's some

02:19:24.080 --> 02:19:25.380
muscle memory

02:19:25.380 --> 02:19:30.860
Yeah, from them from another game. I think it was yesterday at the exact same situation with noff as well cancelling

02:19:30.980 --> 02:19:33.840
Yeah, they think it's good to cancel right away

02:19:33.840 --> 02:19:38.720
But you know chances are your opponent will not be able to kill the whole foundation sometimes leaving it is correct

02:19:39.060 --> 02:19:42.720
Canceling it when it's so high in the percentage is usually not the right play

02:19:42.720 --> 02:19:45.620
But you know regardless a great cleanup from Lance

02:19:45.700 --> 02:19:51.340
He actually makes sure work at that army pig correctly identifies you need the stronger unit in the Portuguese and guys

02:19:51.340 --> 02:19:56.220
This is what we were talking about the britain late game is just so much stronger than what portuguese can make

02:19:56.700 --> 02:20:00.860
Or at least in this matchup like it's not overall stronger, but in this matchup britain late game

02:20:00.860 --> 02:20:05.580
It's just so hard to deal with what you really want to do is just let the bombards cook from far

02:20:05.740 --> 02:20:09.100
They have one extra range compared to the lombos at 13

02:20:09.980 --> 02:20:11.980
Of course, thanks to siege engineers

02:20:12.300 --> 02:20:17.180
But if bombards alone will die to the lombos as well lombos 12 range on these bad boys such a strong unit

02:20:17.180 --> 02:20:21.300
Yeah, he got Yeoman as well.

02:20:21.300 --> 02:20:29.380
Also Pig doesn't have the unique technology, Archibus which gives them more accuracy against

02:20:29.380 --> 02:20:32.700
the moving targets and he lost the castle so...

02:20:32.700 --> 02:20:38.460
Yeah, it's looking rough for Pig but what I like about Pig is that he's getting all

02:20:38.460 --> 02:20:39.460
the upgrades actually.

02:20:39.460 --> 02:20:42.100
It's the last upgrade for his cavalry.

02:20:42.100 --> 02:20:46.500
So if he's ever going to find a winning composition, he can maybe counter play this.

02:20:46.500 --> 02:20:50.700
He's got all the upgrades that he needs, but take a look at this, Cab Lance has 4000 gold

02:20:50.700 --> 02:20:51.700
guys.

02:20:51.700 --> 02:20:53.820
He can pull up in a Ferrari and he still has gold to spare.

02:20:53.820 --> 02:20:56.780
He's got tons of food in the bank as well, maybe a little shore on stone.

02:20:56.780 --> 02:20:59.700
He's got all the resources and all the control he can ever ask for.

02:20:59.700 --> 02:21:01.820
Take a look as well, two castles in the middle.

02:21:01.820 --> 02:21:03.780
Even if you run past them, you run into stone walls.

02:21:03.780 --> 02:21:05.460
I'd actually like the fortify wall tech.

02:21:05.460 --> 02:21:07.060
That would be great for him.

02:21:07.060 --> 02:21:09.900
But overall, really good control of the map for Lance.

02:21:09.900 --> 02:21:14.900
Beautiful play from him so far.

02:21:14.900 --> 02:21:20.740
And now he is preparing all those barracks for which I love those barracks for so many

02:21:20.740 --> 02:21:21.740
reasons.

02:21:21.740 --> 02:21:27.740
First of all, he is seeing the Cavaliers and reacting properly.

02:21:27.740 --> 02:21:32.900
They are all forward because infantry are slow, basically.

02:21:32.900 --> 02:21:33.900
Yeah.

02:21:33.900 --> 02:21:34.900
All of them, that's the issue with them.

02:21:34.900 --> 02:21:38.380
So you want them as close as possible to the battlefield.

02:21:38.380 --> 02:21:41.340
He's not building two barracks to do the switch.

02:21:41.340 --> 02:21:46.140
building five of them and more. He can afford them and he's getting all the

02:21:46.140 --> 02:21:51.580
upgrades. Yeah, fantastic. It's a transition done correctly for production.

02:21:51.580 --> 02:21:55.260
Upgrades coming in, you know, start making the unit right away. Look at that.

02:21:55.260 --> 02:21:59.660
Already halved in for him to counter the Cavalier and the Cavalier now it's not

02:21:59.660 --> 02:22:03.740
the strongest unit. Again, it's generic fully upgraded Cavalier. This is decent

02:22:03.740 --> 02:22:07.740
for early imp, but like for late imp, it's not really the strongest unit and this is

02:22:07.740 --> 02:22:10.500
what I've purchased in this matchup. Just don't have the options and the tools to

02:22:10.500 --> 02:22:14.300
really do much look at this two guitars I think we saw on the gates now oh no the

02:22:14.300 --> 02:22:17.100
two pairs are still alive actually hold on wait the two that's and kill this

02:22:17.100 --> 02:22:23.780
castle foundation that Lance is denied but the cavalry is ready at the top

02:22:23.780 --> 02:22:29.460
there he broke through the stone wall how wait how did we break this wall the

02:22:29.460 --> 02:22:32.700
pig the tar that's crazy he's gonna kill a lot of villagers wait that's a crazy

02:22:32.700 --> 02:22:36.700
play the caster missed it I'm so sorry if I found the caster guys I'm gonna beat

02:22:36.700 --> 02:22:40.100
him up for missing that play but pig is apparently broken through this wall

02:22:40.100 --> 02:22:44.180
somehow got a really good raid that's some good counter play for him he's down 60

02:22:44.180 --> 02:22:51.220
population though he's down 60 population yeah he lost that castle as well he is

02:22:51.220 --> 02:22:55.260
going to even have to replace a lot of houses he's panicking he's bringing all

02:22:55.260 --> 02:23:01.380
his military back ramps are however moving in the group with the cavalry so

02:23:01.380 --> 02:23:05.500
cavalry lost all their mobility the group will move at the slowest unit's

02:23:05.500 --> 02:23:06.500
space.

02:23:06.500 --> 02:23:14.940
Yeah, pretty rough there and like, Pig has no castles in his face, he does have the stone,

02:23:14.940 --> 02:23:19.020
like he can easily make a castle back here to defend but he just doesn't really have,

02:23:19.020 --> 02:23:21.740
I guess the presence of mind right now, I just have to make one out here to grab some

02:23:21.740 --> 02:23:26.180
space, it gets denied, still has that to go finish, there's a lot of things to do here

02:23:26.180 --> 02:23:27.180
for Pig.

02:23:27.180 --> 02:23:30.980
He is getting some raids but I mean fortified wall now, look at that beautiful fortified

02:23:30.980 --> 02:23:31.980
wall for Lance.

02:23:31.980 --> 02:23:33.980
Well, the entire set up.

02:23:33.980 --> 02:23:35.980
That's a good texture as well for all the buildings.

02:23:35.980 --> 02:23:37.980
Yeah, it's so nice. He's just walling up everything.

02:23:37.980 --> 02:23:39.980
It's a good way to play to be fair for Lance

02:23:39.980 --> 02:23:41.980
and he's got the lombos in the front.

02:23:41.980 --> 02:23:43.980
That's that control style for the Britons.

02:23:43.980 --> 02:23:45.980
The cab charge onto the lombos.

02:23:45.980 --> 02:23:47.980
Honestly, am I crazy that the lombos just win this?

02:23:47.980 --> 02:23:49.980
No, absolutely.

02:23:49.980 --> 02:23:51.980
There's 30 elite lombos in there.

02:23:51.980 --> 02:23:53.980
Yeah.

02:23:53.980 --> 02:23:55.980
Just such a strong unit.

02:23:55.980 --> 02:23:57.980
Britons, this game inspired me.

02:23:57.980 --> 02:23:59.980
After watching a game like this, I was going to go in

02:23:59.980 --> 02:24:01.820
I think it's on Redisette Fortress, by the way.

02:24:01.820 --> 02:24:05.820
I, dude, I freaking love how strong Lombos are in late game.

02:24:05.820 --> 02:24:09.940
We need a lot of skirmishes, we just have a chance at this.

02:24:09.940 --> 02:24:15.100
Someone said yesterday in my chat after Wargoth came that this is only making me go on the

02:24:15.100 --> 02:24:17.100
ladder and spam infantry.

02:24:17.100 --> 02:24:18.100
Yep.

02:24:18.100 --> 02:24:23.020
Just do what they're doing, get inspired, go in and lose a few games yourself using the

02:24:23.020 --> 02:24:24.020
same strategies.

02:24:24.020 --> 02:24:26.020
That's usually how it goes.

02:24:26.020 --> 02:24:27.020
Yeah, exactly.

02:24:27.020 --> 02:24:29.640
is trying to go out here and finish this castle by the looks of things or is

02:24:29.640 --> 02:24:33.160
you're just going to the to the woodland you can't use this woodland pig pig

02:24:33.160 --> 02:24:37.960
this woodlands occupied those guys are not gonna let them get some free unless

02:24:37.960 --> 02:24:40.040
they're just targeting the lumber camp but that looks like they're just in the

02:24:40.040 --> 02:24:46.320
lumber camp. Fair enough. One thing someone is mentioning also another time

02:24:46.320 --> 02:24:49.400
Gambasun that research that is useless yeah I want to talk a bit about that

02:24:49.400 --> 02:24:54.480
because I noticed a lot of the times people just researching gambasins gives

02:24:54.480 --> 02:25:01.520
do an extra pierce armor but only on the militia line and fire lasers unfortunately won't affect

02:25:01.520 --> 02:25:08.640
the halibut in any way. Lance? Lance walks into melee range with his longbowman.

02:25:10.240 --> 02:25:15.120
That's not a good idea. He's gonna get cleared up. Dude those longbowlers got a lot of kills but

02:25:15.120 --> 02:25:20.160
now they're just gonna die for free. That was extremely suspicious. The chat saying 3-2-2

02:25:20.160 --> 02:25:25.960
has Lance just thrown, I mean it's just a small army, he's getting raided a little bit as well,

02:25:25.960 --> 02:25:29.200
potentially just had a little bit of misstep, farming in the center of the map as well,

02:25:29.200 --> 02:25:33.840
so this strange, dude Lance had a rough minute there, it was a rough minute for Lance.

02:25:33.840 --> 02:25:39.720
The Tars are moving though, oh no, they missed the Castle Foundation, I thought they were going for it.

02:25:39.720 --> 02:25:43.960
They're going to the battlefield, Bindiela, yeah they should have hit this Castle Foundation,

02:25:43.960 --> 02:25:47.680
leaving us smashing against this wall, he's right-click this wall, the light

02:25:47.680 --> 02:25:51.120
have a hit in the wall the potential going down dude it's a terrible one minute

02:25:51.120 --> 02:25:57.920
for what happened to Lance I don't know I don't know but it's okay he's

02:25:57.920 --> 02:26:02.920
stabilizing how's are coming forward but how's could be going down to scrims

02:26:02.920 --> 02:26:07.040
actually cast on the corner we have a couple rams but they're walking in a

02:26:07.040 --> 02:26:11.840
week on a wheelchair guys they have a 10 HP the ram is a coming in on a wheelchair

02:26:11.840 --> 02:26:16.840
brother yeah I'll make short work of those rams they're not gonna do much can't

02:26:16.840 --> 02:26:18.840
get excited about a round push like that.

02:26:18.840 --> 02:26:21.840
Scrim Cavalier the combo for Pig, is that 155 Pop?

02:26:21.840 --> 02:26:23.840
Honestly, Kudos to Pig, he's fighting on well.

02:26:23.840 --> 02:26:25.840
That was a really suspicious minute for Lance though,

02:26:25.840 --> 02:26:29.840
he needs to restabilize, he's still flooding in units and losing them.

02:26:29.840 --> 02:26:32.840
This is so interesting though, because like,

02:26:32.840 --> 02:26:37.840
General KD is very close, Pop is getting closer.

02:26:37.840 --> 02:26:40.840
I still don't think...

02:26:40.840 --> 02:26:45.840
Well, actually, I'm not sure, is it time to think about the post imp?

02:26:45.840 --> 02:26:54.160
him because I don't know how much gold Lance has access to. I don't think he has access

02:26:54.160 --> 02:26:59.440
to so much gold. He only has 1500 gold in the bank. He seems to be just trickling his

02:26:59.440 --> 02:27:05.760
units into the battlefield and he's losing them. And Portuguese in the late stages of

02:27:05.760 --> 02:27:10.720
the game, they have a Feituriash, a unique building that gives them a trickle of gold

02:27:10.720 --> 02:27:11.720
and stone.

02:27:11.720 --> 02:27:16.920
We'll talk about that as well in a second, so I'm just watching Lance into units for

02:27:16.920 --> 02:27:17.920
the last three minutes.

02:27:17.920 --> 02:27:22.520
He finally got a good mass of lombos, so you can kind of defend his units that are trickling

02:27:22.520 --> 02:27:26.880
in and actually get some good DPS out onto what Pig has on the map.

02:27:26.880 --> 02:27:29.360
We can talk about that a little bit.

02:27:29.360 --> 02:27:32.280
Portuguese have a nice building, Feitoria, that could come through.

02:27:32.280 --> 02:27:35.920
If it comes through, we'll talk about it a bit more, but basically just so the viewers

02:27:35.920 --> 02:27:40.200
know that Pig has a building specifically for the Portuguese that could give him a nice

02:27:40.200 --> 02:27:44.680
trickle of golden stone as well as the other resources could be very helpful for late game.

02:27:44.680 --> 02:27:47.760
If he goes for it, we'll talk about it and run you guys through the numbers.

02:27:47.760 --> 02:27:49.320
For now, it's all Captain Lance moving forward.

02:27:49.320 --> 02:27:53.280
He kind of recuperated his position and now has a good massive long blow.

02:27:53.280 --> 02:27:54.280
It's very good for him.

02:27:54.280 --> 02:27:58.800
Yeah, massive long blow to his backup.

02:27:58.800 --> 02:28:01.200
Two petards back in the queue, but he canceled them.

02:28:01.200 --> 02:28:02.600
I guess he was just a misleak.

02:28:02.600 --> 02:28:04.600
He wanted to throw these treves.

02:28:04.600 --> 02:28:06.600
He canceled them.

02:28:06.600 --> 02:28:11.480
Now, Pig going for some raids, trying to ram through this top wall.

02:28:11.480 --> 02:28:16.160
Catmalanth does have the wall set up and, you know, keep him to re-wall if he spots it.

02:28:16.160 --> 02:28:19.860
We'll keep it on that, see if there's any counter-attack potential for Pig.

02:28:19.860 --> 02:28:21.600
Catmalanth is still missing some upgrades, by the way.

02:28:21.600 --> 02:28:24.360
Armor and infantry attacks for both infantry and cavalry.

02:28:24.360 --> 02:28:27.940
He could be coming in, missing those upgrades, of course, very, very crucial.

02:28:27.940 --> 02:28:32.060
Potentially giving Pig a chance to come back, and by the way, Pig has done a great job of stabilizing.

02:28:32.060 --> 02:28:34.660
Like, it hasn't been the greatest late game for him.

02:28:34.660 --> 02:28:38.580
He's missing out on tons of gold and stone that would be very valuable for his game,

02:28:38.580 --> 02:28:41.620
but he still has a castle. I can imagine a world where he gets a castle in the front,

02:28:41.620 --> 02:28:45.540
re-kicks those minerals, and can potentially win against the Britons in the Hyperlate game here.

02:28:49.380 --> 02:28:56.020
Yeah, also I gotta say, I do like the raids from Captain Lance. It feels like Pig is just panicking,

02:28:56.580 --> 02:29:03.860
and not necessarily panicking. He's doing all the right reactions, but it just forces a lot of

02:29:03.860 --> 02:29:10.100
Reaction from here now. There's a hole at the top all of that massive long boss is going to get behind pig space

02:29:10.100 --> 02:29:12.600
And it's going to be a massacre here

02:29:12.600 --> 02:29:19.640
That's hell is nasty that hill is really nasty 40 long bows all the wooden farm and eco is back here pig

02:29:19.640 --> 02:29:24.860
Is gonna of course try to answer this with this cavalry, but being on a hill Katmas is a prime position

02:29:25.100 --> 02:29:28.620
There's not a lot of meat shield though. I wish I had a bit more meat shield to the long boss

02:29:28.620 --> 02:29:31.000
It's those 40 we're gonna march down hill though

02:29:31.000 --> 02:29:34.840
So I feel like he could have just fought that. He's waiting for the Halberdiers potentially.

02:29:34.840 --> 02:29:42.480
He's going to be cutting away the Cavalier. Let's see if this is a good fight for Lance.

02:29:42.480 --> 02:29:49.640
I'm not sure. I do agree that the Halbs kind of missed their chance there running way too

02:29:49.640 --> 02:29:56.040
late to the party. But yeah, those are going to be deadvils. I mean, Pig right now is floating

02:29:56.040 --> 02:30:00.380
a considerable amount of wood, but in the long run,

02:30:00.380 --> 02:30:01.540
he might get cornered.

02:30:01.540 --> 02:30:03.980
He simply just not have map control.

02:30:03.980 --> 02:30:04.820
Yeah.

02:30:05.700 --> 02:30:07.260
I love that castle, that feel.

02:30:07.260 --> 02:30:08.260
He's getting squeezed, right?

02:30:08.260 --> 02:30:09.980
Like, Trebuchet down here,

02:30:09.980 --> 02:30:11.020
step at a talent center,

02:30:11.020 --> 02:30:12.540
stepping some lumber camps,

02:30:12.540 --> 02:30:14.220
preventing the wood expansion.

02:30:14.220 --> 02:30:16.820
150 pot for Pig.

02:30:16.820 --> 02:30:18.860
He still has to deal with all these longbows

02:30:18.860 --> 02:30:20.580
that are just refusing to die, it seems.

02:30:20.580 --> 02:30:22.100
How many kills do these guys have?

02:30:22.100 --> 02:30:25.260
47 kills and just a group of 15 longbowmen, it's insane.

02:30:25.260 --> 02:30:28.200
But that castle is beautiful. I wish that castle was here earlier.

02:30:28.200 --> 02:30:31.900
He had the hundred...he had the castles stone for like a year now.

02:30:31.900 --> 02:30:35.480
Couldn't make that castle a while back, but it's good to make it now better late than never.

02:30:35.480 --> 02:30:39.300
Does it clear up the lombos? Is it playable for Pig? I think it's okay.

02:30:39.300 --> 02:30:40.920
Maybe it's still playable.

02:30:40.920 --> 02:30:43.960
But it's looking rough. 140 pop is quite low.

02:30:43.960 --> 02:30:51.120
Yeah. We talked about this before. Stone is never a resource that you should be...

02:30:51.120 --> 02:30:57.360
you should be bank on castles usually if you're pushing map control is great but they're also

02:30:57.360 --> 02:31:03.120
fantastic if you're producing unique unit just like capital has them you know scattered around

02:31:03.120 --> 02:31:09.200
your economy stops a lot of the raids and you have them saved in the back for production

02:31:10.400 --> 02:31:14.560
yeah there are four cavalier here by the way four cavalier in the back uh i just want to sell a

02:31:14.560 --> 02:31:19.120
little storyline for the for the viewers here uh capital is walling up his base nicely but there's

02:31:19.120 --> 02:31:23.580
But there's an opening at the back, if those four cavaliers somehow sneak around that opening

02:31:23.580 --> 02:31:27.360
and find this tower without Captain Lance paying attention, they could kill the tower

02:31:27.360 --> 02:31:28.360
and kill the king.

02:31:28.360 --> 02:31:32.840
Now this story will probably not happen though because Captain Lance is bald, but keep it

02:31:32.840 --> 02:31:36.360
in mind that Kingsnight could always come through at some point somehow, but not that

02:31:36.360 --> 02:31:37.360
Kingsnight.

02:31:37.360 --> 02:31:44.080
Captain Lance's furniture was just stuck on the outside and he was like whatever man,

02:31:44.080 --> 02:31:49.280
She can just open a door for someone and just delete it so sad

02:31:50.520 --> 02:31:54.820
Come on sad some some long bows at the back Cavalier not gonna do a whole lot for pig

02:31:55.080 --> 02:32:00.440
We turn the pop for Lance a light cab how about the year a long bow against still missing upgrades

02:32:00.440 --> 02:32:04.080
I want to keep pointing that out that this is not the best combo that can ever see from Lance

02:32:04.400 --> 02:32:06.400
This army does get stronger

02:32:07.080 --> 02:32:11.760
Pig has a lot of food wood at you go, but really lacking on that golden stone department

02:32:11.760 --> 02:32:16.120
Of course, same can be said for Camp Lance. There's still a lot of gold on the field, all right?

02:32:16.120 --> 02:32:19.680
It's just hard to take. Need the player feeling too confident to control this area.

02:32:20.480 --> 02:32:25.360
First, Trebuchet being brought to the fight for Lance. He's got a couple more though.

02:32:25.360 --> 02:32:30.040
He can bring those guys in. They're actually stuck behind walls. A lot of army for Lance, stuck behind walls.

02:32:32.960 --> 02:32:35.240
No one's getting a war wolf.

02:32:35.240 --> 02:32:40.880
I wonder if they don't think that's very strong because it only affects the Trebuchets.

02:32:40.880 --> 02:32:46.300
maybe they think they're too expensive I at this point of the game I think it is

02:32:46.300 --> 02:32:50.260
too expensive because Captain Lance only has a two on gold but he was floating a

02:32:50.260 --> 02:32:56.380
considerable amount of gold earlier on so I just wonder why that may maybe maybe

02:32:56.380 --> 02:33:01.460
they think it's not that strong because it only affects the the trebs but they're

02:33:01.460 --> 02:33:07.400
good their their projectiles are going to act like tiny little onagers the

02:33:07.400 --> 02:33:09.400
Warwolf's traps are very strong.

02:33:09.400 --> 02:33:13.400
Yeah, that tech is not being used by our players.

02:33:13.400 --> 02:33:16.400
I think it's a good tech, but it's maybe a little hard to use.

02:33:16.400 --> 02:33:18.400
Maybe a little intuitive.

02:33:18.400 --> 02:33:21.400
Canons getting too close to the lombards. You cannot get that close to the lombards.

02:33:21.400 --> 02:33:25.400
He's trying to snipe the Travisheys, but one trep down, three cannons down.

02:33:25.400 --> 02:33:28.400
That's a very, very costly trep snipe for Pig.

02:33:28.400 --> 02:33:30.400
He does kill the cast on the bottom, which is nice.

02:33:30.400 --> 02:33:32.400
And he does have 200 pop again.

02:33:32.400 --> 02:33:36.400
So Pig, honestly, playing a very good game deserves a lot of respect.

02:33:36.400 --> 02:33:38.320
even if you might lose it

02:33:38.320 --> 02:33:41.840
i think you'll probably be happy with this performance

02:33:41.840 --> 02:33:44.720
here you might have been right

02:33:44.720 --> 02:33:48.080
he is thinking about... well i don't know if he's thinking just about

02:33:48.080 --> 02:33:51.520
raiding the back of captain's base

02:33:51.520 --> 02:33:55.840
or thinking about a potential king snipe like in a dose

02:33:55.840 --> 02:33:59.360
Cavaliers almost got through a fortified gate now

02:33:59.360 --> 02:34:02.160
if only he would be sending a random

02:34:02.160 --> 02:34:05.160
they'll do maybe build a workshop maybe one or two rams

02:34:05.160 --> 02:34:06.520
yeah

02:34:06.520 --> 02:34:10.640
ramps guitars like is just something to break the walls it's obviously tough

02:34:10.640 --> 02:34:12.400
but there's an opening at the back

02:34:12.400 --> 02:34:15.700
uh... car tower now is in those so it's getting harder and harder to snap the

02:34:15.700 --> 02:34:16.560
king

02:34:16.560 --> 02:34:19.720
of course pick doesn't need to snap the king he could just win this as a straight

02:34:19.720 --> 02:34:22.440
up game here in this uh... in this imperial war

02:34:22.440 --> 02:34:25.840
uh... brins get a lot weaker by the way when there's no gold

02:34:25.840 --> 02:34:29.160
uh... they're like that don't have bloodlines so portuguese like have in

02:34:29.160 --> 02:34:33.580
Portuguese Cavalry in general are much stronger than what Britons have from their stable.

02:34:33.580 --> 02:34:36.840
But CapMilantes is using his momentum, using that gold, first of all he's picking up those

02:34:36.840 --> 02:34:41.840
upgrades and he's using that momentum to take the stone away from Pig.

02:34:41.840 --> 02:34:46.520
When push comes to shove, I feel that CapMilantes' position is still miles ahead of Pig right

02:34:46.520 --> 02:34:47.520
now.

02:34:47.520 --> 02:34:50.360
Even though they both have a bit of a bank, so this could be a long game, this could go

02:34:50.360 --> 02:34:51.600
to the time limits.

02:34:51.600 --> 02:34:55.560
And 1h30, whoever has more score wins.

02:34:55.560 --> 02:34:57.960
So keep that in mind as we head into the slight game.

02:35:00.660 --> 02:35:04.960
Actually, the score is not even that far apart as I expected.

02:35:04.960 --> 02:35:08.360
Also, a very important aspect that I completely missed.

02:35:08.360 --> 02:35:11.660
Captain Lance just got the last armor on these halbs,

02:35:11.660 --> 02:35:17.360
which kind of make them a lot weaker against all that massive scrims earlier on,

02:35:17.360 --> 02:35:19.560
so that's why he was losing those masses of...

02:35:21.060 --> 02:35:21.360
Yeah.

02:35:21.360 --> 02:35:21.960
...so fast.

02:35:22.260 --> 02:35:23.260
Yeah, have it here.

02:35:23.260 --> 02:35:24.960
Fully upgraded now.

02:35:24.960 --> 02:35:27.920
Blast Burn is the last tech coming in.

02:35:27.920 --> 02:35:32.800
Cavalant, sorry, Pig keeps running his Cavalier and shaking through these walls.

02:35:32.800 --> 02:35:34.400
That's not a good strategy typically.

02:35:34.400 --> 02:35:37.800
Normally, you need to siege those fortified walls.

02:35:37.800 --> 02:35:41.600
It's very hard to break, but he keeps thinking, you know, maybe if I just have enough Cavalier

02:35:41.600 --> 02:35:47.400
here, I could eventually get through a few villagers you thermal to the center here potentially.

02:35:47.400 --> 02:35:50.400
And this army, just stuck behind walls that's really hurting Captain Lance.

02:35:50.400 --> 02:35:53.160
That's like, what is that, like 14-15 population?

02:35:53.160 --> 02:35:55.160
step on walls including two trebuchets

02:35:56.360 --> 02:35:57.360
gotta watch out

02:35:58.960 --> 02:36:00.080
is the gate locked?

02:36:00.080 --> 02:36:01.580
ah the gate is locked

02:36:01.580 --> 02:36:02.580
the gate is locked, yeah

02:36:04.080 --> 02:36:05.220
I think it's gonna go out of this gate

02:36:05.220 --> 02:36:06.720
like they could be clicked out

02:36:09.960 --> 02:36:10.760
definitely

02:36:11.760 --> 02:36:12.460
one other thing

02:36:12.460 --> 02:36:16.560
man, B is so many rats in front of his base that

02:36:16.560 --> 02:36:19.560
well now Captain Lance is gonna get

02:36:19.860 --> 02:36:20.360
yep

02:36:20.660 --> 02:36:21.780
yeah I hate this, I hate this

02:36:21.780 --> 02:36:27.360
the pig really needs to fight for those resources. Like, from pig's position, I just hate to see someone taking resources out of my walls.

02:36:27.360 --> 02:36:32.480
It's like, I don't know. It's like, uh, two castes worth of stone, so far the catalyst is taken.

02:36:32.480 --> 02:36:35.760
A lot of towers worth, maybe? Gold? That's a fresh gold mine?

02:36:35.760 --> 02:36:40.880
I don't think pig can just let this go to the opponent. I think you need to mask up a huge army and try to get it clear up.

02:36:40.880 --> 02:36:43.760
It's now or never. He's masking some rams, by the way.

02:36:43.760 --> 02:36:45.760
Now, she's making something happen.

02:36:45.760 --> 02:36:49.920
But his monastery is getting trapped. He's got two relics in there, so you always have to fight for this one.

02:36:49.920 --> 02:36:51.920
Let's see what they can do in the next few minutes.

02:36:53.360 --> 02:36:59.340
Yeah, like I mean, it's just so many resources on the map left still for Captain Manseye.

02:36:59.340 --> 02:37:03.140
On top of the fact that he is flooring a lot of food and

02:37:03.660 --> 02:37:07.900
and wood, food still at a very good price at the market.

02:37:09.720 --> 02:37:14.120
And it gets out, gets some more gold. Big engagement here. Cavalry walking into the halberge.

02:37:14.120 --> 02:37:17.000
You have to be a little careful. He's got skirmishes in the ramp.

02:37:17.000 --> 02:37:23.280
That's actually not a good way to go about it. They don't make the Rams from faster only infantry is a very weak push for pig

02:37:23.280 --> 02:37:28.080
I'm not gonna lie the Cavalier is getting cleared up by the halves and the Rams aren't gonna do a whole lot

02:37:28.080 --> 02:37:34.040
Not the best push. I think pig needed a lot more than that. I needed to play way better

02:37:34.600 --> 02:37:37.780
But the halberd is getting insane valuable those halves are insane

02:37:40.440 --> 02:37:44.200
That was a really satisfied for pig he lost a lot

02:37:44.200 --> 02:37:48.920
He's only a 31 military captain less has a death ball or of 84

02:37:49.360 --> 02:37:55.800
Minute there that I just don't see pig pushing what I would also like to see here from captain us

02:37:55.800 --> 02:38:00.040
I saw he made a guard tower upgrade just to put some random towers behind

02:38:01.480 --> 02:38:03.920
The fortified wall is campaign

02:38:04.680 --> 02:38:11.360
Like defense. I like it irrespective. Okay, that castle works. That's good. Yeah. Yeah

02:38:11.360 --> 02:38:19.840
I would have also liked just towers. Yeoman also gives plus two attack on the towers on all the extra range on the foot archers

02:38:19.880 --> 02:38:21.000
so

02:38:21.000 --> 02:38:22.840
like just a

02:38:22.840 --> 02:38:26.880
Massive guard towers here forward would have worked. You know what castle works, too

02:38:27.400 --> 02:38:32.320
Yeah, and like as far as king slaps go. I don't think pig has even a single chance

02:38:32.320 --> 02:38:35.880
But actually pigs king is rather vulnerable. So sitting in a watchtower at the back

02:38:35.920 --> 02:38:39.800
There's no defense in the space this castle will control two relics of camp lands

02:38:39.800 --> 02:38:43.640
He can actually steal those and he is stealing those, he's going to make a munk and steal

02:38:43.640 --> 02:38:44.640
those two relics.

02:38:44.640 --> 02:38:48.880
Catlanth is looking really, really good here to take this first game away from Pig.

02:38:48.880 --> 02:38:52.520
Onagers coming in, that's not good versus Longbow.

02:38:52.520 --> 02:38:58.640
We saw yesterday Pig, sorry not Pig, but Singsing had Siege Onagers with Mongols that moved

02:38:58.640 --> 02:38:59.640
faster.

02:38:59.640 --> 02:39:01.720
Even that couldn't stop Wagas Longbowmen.

02:39:01.720 --> 02:39:05.840
So, Onagers don't work against Longbowmen from Britain, they work against most other

02:39:05.840 --> 02:39:12.240
range units but long was outranked them by a lot by three so you gotta watch out there

02:39:15.200 --> 02:39:21.920
hmm yeah now that i remember about that like that gamecraf went so much more different with

02:39:22.720 --> 02:39:31.440
siege ram opening instead of siege ronager yeah but yeah definitely portuguese lacking a siege

02:39:31.440 --> 02:39:37.760
around here it's sad it feels like pig had the right idea in that regard uh the king is being

02:39:37.760 --> 02:39:43.120
threatened pig might try to hold but the king is being threatened the lombos are here one

02:39:43.120 --> 02:39:49.440
or two comes out uh i think the king might die here the lombos can hit the tower and the king's

02:39:49.440 --> 02:39:54.720
type will be easy lance is not going for it the tower is looking really suspicious pig is fighting

02:39:54.720 --> 02:40:00.160
really well behind this it's not looking that bad for him but you gotta watch the king oh like

02:40:00.160 --> 02:40:06.480
I can't be just dancing around the tower, all of those longboots, I don't even know if they're attacking the tower

02:40:07.800 --> 02:40:11.440
Because Captain Lance wants them to or just by default

02:40:12.560 --> 02:40:15.000
I was thinking it might even just be an equal auto target

02:40:15.000 --> 02:40:20.480
I wonder if the king comes out while he shoots the king. It's about to come out. This is actually

02:40:21.080 --> 02:40:23.080
The king is out!

02:40:23.080 --> 02:40:25.080
The king is right there behind the stable!

02:40:25.080 --> 02:40:27.080
I don't think the last season

02:40:27.080 --> 02:40:29.080
Go! Go! Go DTC!

02:40:30.160 --> 02:40:32.160
No one sees the king.

02:40:32.160 --> 02:40:33.160
King?

02:40:33.160 --> 02:40:35.160
How does this always happen?

02:40:35.160 --> 02:40:37.160
Oh my god, how does this always happen?

02:40:37.160 --> 02:40:39.160
She's completely forgettable.

02:40:39.160 --> 02:40:41.160
He's fighting for his life right now.

02:40:41.160 --> 02:40:44.160
Oh, oh, he doesn't know.

02:40:44.160 --> 02:40:47.160
I think this is the other king is there.

02:40:47.160 --> 02:40:49.160
Oh my god, this is so funny.

02:40:49.160 --> 02:40:51.160
Captain Lester's in there.

02:40:51.160 --> 02:40:53.160
Oh, he sees him, he sees him.

02:40:53.160 --> 02:40:54.160
He sees him, he's there for the king to safety.

02:40:54.160 --> 02:40:55.160
Holy.

02:40:55.160 --> 02:40:57.160
That was so funny.

02:40:57.160 --> 02:40:59.160
Bro.

02:40:59.160 --> 02:41:03.160
Okay, the game continues. A lot of food for Captain Lanth though.

02:41:06.160 --> 02:41:09.160
Oh, he moved them 30 seat and now the Trev is attacking.

02:41:09.160 --> 02:41:13.160
Yeah, Trev on the TC right away. The King can't catch a break, bro.

02:41:13.160 --> 02:41:16.160
The King can't catch a break. Light cap going in.

02:41:16.160 --> 02:41:18.160
Skirm's a big massive skirmishers, by the way.

02:41:18.160 --> 02:41:21.160
Actually, this is a great army for playing the late game.

02:41:21.160 --> 02:41:23.160
Like, finally, left nine in the military.

02:41:23.160 --> 02:41:25.160
This is what we wanted to see from Pig for so long.

02:41:25.160 --> 02:41:28.160
And he still got tons of reds in the bank. Can we push this back?

02:41:28.160 --> 02:41:29.680
I think it's a possibility.

02:41:29.680 --> 02:41:32.400
Warwolf coming in though that's the technique I was talking about.

02:41:32.400 --> 02:41:34.960
Giving Trebuchet splash damage for the Britons.

02:41:34.960 --> 02:41:36.320
Where's the king? Where's the king?

02:41:36.320 --> 02:41:37.200
The king is running.

02:41:37.920 --> 02:41:39.040
Oh no, the king is running.

02:41:40.000 --> 02:41:41.600
Were you running to homey?

02:41:41.600 --> 02:41:43.920
There's nothing to run to though.

02:41:43.920 --> 02:41:44.560
To the corner?

02:41:44.560 --> 02:41:45.200
Oh!

02:41:45.200 --> 02:41:46.240
There's like that.

02:41:46.240 --> 02:41:47.200
Were you running king?

02:41:47.200 --> 02:41:50.720
Go keep an eye but a big fight going off in the start and the center of the map.

02:41:50.720 --> 02:41:52.000
King is trying to fight for his life,

02:41:52.000 --> 02:41:53.680
fear for Trebuchet and push this all back.

02:41:53.680 --> 02:41:56.800
The king, the king is running past the town center.

02:41:56.800 --> 02:42:05.120
go go little homie oh like oh my god dude did he get standing on a farm

02:42:11.680 --> 02:42:16.480
what i want to say is what i think captain lance is thinking right now okay i'm pushing like

02:42:17.840 --> 02:42:22.160
i'm in his base wise he's not resigning well he's probably not resigning because he's pushing

02:42:22.160 --> 02:42:27.340
He's he's preferring some sort of Hail Mary sneak attempt to

02:42:28.280 --> 02:42:34.360
Kill my king so I did notice that he moved him from the guard tower to the castle. Yeah, so so smart

02:42:34.720 --> 02:42:36.720
Keep him in the castle

02:42:37.400 --> 02:42:39.000
Keep them safe

02:42:39.000 --> 02:42:41.440
The opposite of what pigs doing just standing on a farm, but

02:42:42.480 --> 02:42:49.280
Kings that were not I think this game is captain Lance's to the pop the base in the defense for pig has crumbled and

02:42:49.280 --> 02:42:53.280
And there's nothing left to defend all of this farmland.

02:42:53.280 --> 02:42:57.800
One king sitting on farms, he's kind of homeless as well, and when your king is homeless you

02:42:57.800 --> 02:43:00.280
know that the rest of the population is struggling.

02:43:00.280 --> 02:43:05.760
He's looking for a new home, he's going to garrison into this town center, but that's

02:43:05.760 --> 02:43:10.360
exactly where Captain Lanth is going, so this king really can't catch a break.

02:43:10.360 --> 02:43:13.720
All of the army's going in, surrender!

02:43:13.720 --> 02:43:18.000
He tagged, he asked his town center, that's so rude!

02:43:18.000 --> 02:43:24.160
No, no, no, he didn't actually got treason. He got treason. He paid for the treason deck which which exposes the king

02:43:24.240 --> 02:43:29.120
So captain Lance page 4 and gold to expose the king. He's dead surrender. He's going for the town center

02:43:29.340 --> 02:43:33.400
Everything's diving the trekkers on it as well. The king will die. The king is out. The king will die

02:43:33.600 --> 02:43:34.100
GG

02:43:34.100 --> 02:43:37.540
He's done arrows. Take his dog in the arrows. The king dies and

02:43:38.160 --> 02:43:42.620
Cat relax takes the win a fun ending to that game man

02:43:42.620 --> 02:43:47.480
I love what the king dies the treason deck was solid and guys give it up in the chat

02:43:47.480 --> 02:43:51.360
GUL play for Captain Lance Daniela. That was a great game. I feel like both players played really well

02:43:51.400 --> 02:43:54.120
But Captain Lance he didn't go for the Cuban strike

02:43:54.120 --> 02:43:57.000
He brought something completely different and you played it really really well

02:43:58.280 --> 02:44:01.080
Absolutely, I mean a captainless might be the new fortress

02:44:01.920 --> 02:44:08.440
Specialists among these players. I wouldn't mind to see that name change. Just like you thermal does every other set

02:44:09.080 --> 02:44:15.040
But I gotta I gotta say I think big played really solid

02:44:15.040 --> 02:44:21.920
If I see this matchup against two fairly even players, if I see Britons versus Portuguese,

02:44:21.920 --> 02:44:29.080
I don't think Portuguese can drag this to over one hour game, especially if it's just

02:44:29.080 --> 02:44:32.400
like a pure boom into late game.

02:44:32.400 --> 02:44:39.040
I feel like Britons are so much better than Portuguese and Pig took some really good fights

02:44:39.040 --> 02:44:40.040
here.

02:44:40.040 --> 02:44:42.800
Yeah, we talked about that at the start of the game, guys, we're not saying these things

02:44:42.800 --> 02:44:43.800
for no reason.

02:44:43.800 --> 02:44:47.080
talking about the Britain late game and how powerful it is.

02:44:47.080 --> 02:44:49.040
Of course, Pig is not listening to our commentary,

02:44:49.040 --> 02:44:51.360
so he doesn't necessarily know what we're talking about.

02:44:51.360 --> 02:44:52.920
And he couldn't quite figure out

02:44:52.920 --> 02:44:56.440
that Britain's would win the late game against Portuguese.

02:44:56.440 --> 02:44:58.320
Maybe a game knowledge thing,

02:44:58.320 --> 02:45:00.480
maybe for the next time he will think twice about it,

02:45:00.480 --> 02:45:02.680
but I think Portuguese had to push that.

02:45:02.680 --> 02:45:04.440
Like, Forty-C Boom is acceptable,

02:45:04.440 --> 02:45:06.840
but at some point you gotta fight for the map early imp.

02:45:06.840 --> 02:45:09.040
He tried to go for like some skirm like cap,

02:45:09.040 --> 02:45:11.560
but I think if the initial push had been Cavalier skirm,

02:45:11.560 --> 02:45:13.960
Spend that gold and really gain some respect on the map.

02:45:13.960 --> 02:45:16.600
Maybe if you boom to like 10 bombards as well.

02:45:16.600 --> 02:45:20.040
You get 10 bombards and suddenly the Lombos can't really fight into them as well.

02:45:20.040 --> 02:45:23.320
I think that's going to be like the two win conditions that Pig can go for, but

02:45:23.320 --> 02:45:26.280
he kind of fought early with some weak units,

02:45:26.280 --> 02:45:32.120
and Captain Lance is able to kind of snowball him until an eventual Britain late game victory.

02:45:32.120 --> 02:45:33.720
Well played though, that's good for his game.

02:45:33.720 --> 02:45:37.080
Even though Pig lost, I think he's going to be happy with how he played overall,

02:45:37.080 --> 02:45:39.400
and he's going to have his whole map picked for game two.

02:45:39.400 --> 02:45:42.200
He can pick between Arabia and arena and it's really up to him.

02:45:42.480 --> 02:45:44.440
So that's a decent way to kind of bounce back.

02:45:47.360 --> 02:45:48.840
Yeah, absolutely.

02:45:48.840 --> 02:45:51.720
Let's see what do you think he's going to go for?

02:45:52.000 --> 02:45:53.440
What do you think is more comfortable on?

02:45:54.240 --> 02:45:55.200
It's good points.

02:45:55.840 --> 02:45:57.800
What do I think pink will go for?

02:45:58.360 --> 02:46:02.320
So historically, pink has actually played a hybrid of Arabian arena.

02:46:02.320 --> 02:46:06.560
If you think about the sets that he's played in the past, how his ladder grind has went.

02:46:06.560 --> 02:46:10.960
He has played vietnamese very well on arabia. That's one of his comfort picks

02:46:10.960 --> 02:46:14.040
He's played bohemians very very well on arena

02:46:14.040 --> 02:46:19.920
And then he also has a couple other picks that he can surprise us with like we've seen him pull out the woo against grubby

02:46:19.920 --> 02:46:22.600
He still has that woo strategy up his upper sleeves

02:46:22.600 --> 02:46:26.680
The thing is though captain lance is not a guy that plays standard on arabia

02:46:26.680 --> 02:46:32.080
So if you take captain lance to arabia, you could expect to get foster rush to get that fast castle unique unit rush

02:46:32.200 --> 02:46:36.400
It's not unstoppable. We saw you thermal actually be captain lance twice on arabia

02:46:36.400 --> 02:46:39.300
He kind of stuff that strategy quite nicely

02:46:39.700 --> 02:46:43.900
But I don't know like Captain Lance is also an arena specialist with those like fast castle

02:46:44.060 --> 02:46:48.580
You know potential forward castle fast in strategies. So if I'm big right now

02:46:48.580 --> 02:46:51.860
I think I take him to Arabia for the first game if I had to say I

02:46:53.340 --> 02:47:00.440
See I see I see okay. Well, um, it's Arabia confirmed. Sorry just to finish that thought it's a rabid confirmed

02:47:01.440 --> 02:47:04.840
Okay, good. I didn't see them on the spectrum. So

02:47:04.840 --> 02:47:06.520
So, okay.

02:47:08.640 --> 02:47:10.280
Well, looking forward to that, I think,

02:47:13.520 --> 02:47:14.800
I think I'm ready for this.

02:47:14.800 --> 02:47:17.080
I wanna see Captain Lass going for something crazy.

02:47:17.080 --> 02:47:20.760
I hope I'm going to see some Magyar shenanigans.

02:47:20.760 --> 02:47:24.560
So, I expected to see Magyars more often,

02:47:24.560 --> 02:47:25.920
given the fact that in the beginning,

02:47:25.920 --> 02:47:28.160
felt like everyone was kind of playing them.

02:47:28.160 --> 02:47:33.160
I was surprised to not see them on a rebate that much.

02:47:33.160 --> 02:47:37.000
much. Yeah, it's like everyone is practicing Maggars and then as soon as the term has started,

02:47:37.000 --> 02:47:41.320
the Maggar players kind of dropped out and then suddenly the Maggars players that remain just

02:47:41.320 --> 02:47:45.320
moved away from that civilization. The thing about Maggars is that they're a bit one-dimensional.

02:47:45.320 --> 02:47:49.640
It's a good sieve, but I would say it's like a mid-tier Arabia sieve. If you have a free pick,

02:47:49.640 --> 02:47:53.960
even in pro play, you rarely would see Maggars, stuff like Vietnamese, Chinese,

02:47:53.960 --> 02:47:59.720
Wei. Those civilizations are a lot stronger on paper. Mongols also for the lane potential.

02:47:59.720 --> 02:48:01.020
We'll see what they have to go for.

02:48:01.020 --> 02:48:03.480
Catmillan has been playing some like Bulgarians

02:48:03.480 --> 02:48:04.680
and some random stuff as well,

02:48:04.680 --> 02:48:06.040
but I'm sure the bracket guys

02:48:06.040 --> 02:48:07.960
are doing the upper bracket final right now.

02:48:07.960 --> 02:48:08.960
And it's Catmillan versus Pig.

02:48:08.960 --> 02:48:11.920
It's going to be game number two about to start.

02:48:11.920 --> 02:48:14.120
And it's a home map Pig, a home map for Pig,

02:48:14.120 --> 02:48:15.840
which is Arabia.

02:48:15.840 --> 02:48:17.640
I expect him to just go Vietnamese.

02:48:17.640 --> 02:48:19.680
I think he might try the Wu thing again,

02:48:19.680 --> 02:48:22.280
but I think if Vietnamese start here for him,

02:48:22.280 --> 02:48:23.680
something comfortable,

02:48:23.680 --> 02:48:25.880
could be just be a good way to go about this.

02:48:26.800 --> 02:48:27.920
Yeah, I don't even mind.

02:48:27.920 --> 02:48:34.920
I know that you're saying I do remember seeing some Bulgarian play on the ladder as well with some conics.

02:48:34.920 --> 02:48:35.920
Yeah.

02:48:37.920 --> 02:48:38.920
You can picture some of that.

02:48:42.920 --> 02:48:44.920
Okay, say Arabian next please, okay.

02:48:44.920 --> 02:48:45.920
Yeah, we'll take it over here.

02:48:45.920 --> 02:48:46.920
I agree with you.

02:48:46.920 --> 02:48:49.920
Just to thank Florik for the 10 gifted subs, and thank you all for watching.

02:48:49.920 --> 02:48:52.920
Of course, this is the final day of the King's Gauntlet.

02:48:52.920 --> 02:48:54.920
We have tons and tons of people in here.

02:48:54.920 --> 02:48:58.040
Hope you guys are enjoying the event so far and let's have a great last day

02:48:58.040 --> 02:49:03.080
I have a little bit of a surprise for tomorrow the Monday. It's actually be a little bit of a bonus event

02:49:03.080 --> 02:49:05.640
I'm gonna announce this officially before the grand finals

02:49:06.160 --> 02:49:09.840
But there's gonna be some extra content coming out of us, which is very very cool

02:49:09.960 --> 02:49:13.040
So I've already teased this it's not really that much of a secret

02:49:13.040 --> 02:49:17.680
But it's a little bit of surprise for those who have not maybe not heard any of the announcements. So

02:49:18.360 --> 02:49:23.980
Sleezer says loving the event Hera. Thanks, man. Appreciate it. It's not gonna be extra grubby coaching. No

02:49:23.980 --> 02:49:30.980
That would be fun. It's a great event as well, but it's not going to be that.

02:49:30.980 --> 02:49:38.620
Well, we're waiting here a bit. We were even talking with Nof. I think you were a tiny bit away

02:49:38.620 --> 02:49:44.660
about how much the streamers have been enjoying this event, how much the viewers. I want to ask you,

02:49:44.660 --> 02:49:49.500
how are you feeling about the event? I know you have been excited for a while about it as well.

02:49:49.500 --> 02:49:54.140
I know it has been a lot of casting a lot of work for you a lot of the you know

02:49:54.480 --> 02:49:56.980
behind-the-scenes production to deal with so

02:49:57.500 --> 02:50:02.500
Like how are you feeling today? And now that everything's coming together to an end honestly? I?

02:50:03.060 --> 02:50:07.500
Have loved every minute of this event. I've gotten so many good laughs and memories already

02:50:07.500 --> 02:50:13.460
I haven't even processed just how good this event has been I haven't even like really considered

02:50:13.460 --> 02:50:15.640
You know what we've been watching and whatnot

02:50:15.640 --> 02:50:19.240
But just living through it and just going through it for the first time

02:50:19.240 --> 02:50:22.800
I've loved every minute of it and it's truly been one of the best events

02:50:22.800 --> 02:50:24.360
I've ever been part of and

02:50:24.360 --> 02:50:30.360
Exceeded all of my expectations in terms of viewer numbers in terms of like good moments in terms of King's types and all that jazz

02:50:30.360 --> 02:50:33.720
So I couldn't be happy with the event and actually game two has just started

02:50:33.720 --> 02:50:38.880
So with all that said let's go ahead and hop right in and see what pig has in store for us for his opponent camp Lance

02:50:39.120 --> 02:50:42.660
Camp Lance is actually already bring us some shenanigans. I think

02:50:42.660 --> 02:50:45.500
We'll just take a look at the civilization here.

02:50:45.500 --> 02:50:50.300
He's rocking the Incas, but it is the trusty pig Vietnamese.

02:50:50.300 --> 02:50:54.260
I have to say, not to brag or anything, but I'm pretty happy that I was able to call

02:50:54.260 --> 02:50:56.740
the pig Arabia and the pig Vietnamese.

02:50:56.740 --> 02:50:59.740
I feel like I kind of understand him as a player a little bit.

02:50:59.740 --> 02:51:05.020
But Katmaiantz with the Incas, Daniel, talk to us about what the Incas can throw towards

02:51:05.020 --> 02:51:07.260
pig, maybe a foster room, maybe some champions.

02:51:07.260 --> 02:51:10.420
What do you feel in here with this Inca play?

02:51:10.420 --> 02:51:13.580
Have you seen the players being Omega degenerates with the Champions?

02:51:14.220 --> 02:51:19.420
Hasn't been that bad. No, Inca was played once from Captain Lantern, one from Sing Sing.

02:51:19.420 --> 02:51:23.420
Sing Sing went for a standard Champion Rush, that went to degenerates,

02:51:23.420 --> 02:51:27.420
and Camelans played them in Arena and went Camuqs with the forward fast Castle.

02:51:27.420 --> 02:51:36.420
Yeah, I remember the Arena, but it could take players by surprise, I feel like.

02:51:36.420 --> 02:51:45.180
It could be some wild card that, well, I don't know, let's see what Captain Lance is cooking,

02:51:45.180 --> 02:51:50.700
but if I see, if you're telling me that he's going for, you know, like all of these phosphorous

02:51:50.700 --> 02:52:00.540
rushes, if I see he force-picked Inka, maybe with that idea, I am thinking about actually

02:52:00.540 --> 02:52:03.740
going on Stone and again going for Kamayuki.

02:52:03.740 --> 02:52:11.500
his stone he has it close in the back with a wood line it's so it's such a easy to wall base I feel

02:52:11.500 --> 02:52:21.660
like. Go for for some Kamayuk's hacks and rams like why not. Yeah honestly I don't mind that there's

02:52:21.660 --> 02:52:26.540
some kind of like camiuk ram all in you have the stone nice and nice and close to the wood line and

02:52:26.540 --> 02:52:30.380
for those who might not know the wood line is actually very important to have a research close

02:52:30.380 --> 02:52:35.180
to it for the Incas because their drop-off sites are actually settlements so they don't have mining

02:52:35.180 --> 02:52:39.500
camps they don't have lumber camps you make a settlement and you can drop off all resources

02:52:39.500 --> 02:52:42.860
into that settlement kind of like it's a mini town center so it's going to be placed right here it's

02:52:42.860 --> 02:52:50.540
a three by three building and he'll be able to take wood and stone from it you actually might

02:52:50.540 --> 02:52:56.060
make it right here as well if he wants to can make it right up close to that yeah wood and stone it's

02:52:56.060 --> 02:53:00.140
a beautiful beautiful settlement and that's going to open up some possibilities actually

02:53:00.140 --> 02:53:05.180
for him to go for stone for free. You don't need to invest into like a second mining camp or anything like that.

02:53:05.180 --> 02:53:09.580
Second settlement, you just take it with this initial settlement. So a great start for Captain Lancere.

02:53:10.300 --> 02:53:15.580
And looks like Pig is just going to go ahead and lure in some deer. We did see the fact that you know

02:53:15.580 --> 02:53:20.460
with Vietnamese you see the opponent's Dark Age, TZ, right away. So you couldn't go for a lane,

02:53:20.460 --> 02:53:24.060
but he's deciding he just wants to lure some deer and play a pretty standard opening here.

02:53:24.060 --> 02:53:32.060
I don't mind that. Maybe when you have a chicken opening, you can't push the chicken towards the T.C.

02:53:32.060 --> 02:53:39.060
So you can send your skull forward, just get some information on your opponent's map, what is he up to,

02:53:39.060 --> 02:53:42.060
maybe you can find a random hunt to bring back to your T.C.

02:53:42.060 --> 02:53:49.060
But when you have, well, deer or in this case, e-must-push,

02:53:49.060 --> 02:53:53.780
It feels like, I don't know, a big investment to send your skull forward.

02:53:53.780 --> 02:53:55.700
You're not sure what you're going to find.

02:53:55.700 --> 02:53:59.380
Maybe he has both of the boards in the back, or maybe he already took his first board and

02:53:59.380 --> 02:54:01.540
you're not going to find his second.

02:54:01.540 --> 02:54:05.620
You're not convinced that you're going to blame something and you're wasting all your

02:54:05.620 --> 02:54:07.060
time not pushing deer.

02:54:07.060 --> 02:54:08.060
Yeah, yeah.

02:54:08.060 --> 02:54:09.060
I agree with that.

02:54:09.060 --> 02:54:12.780
I think if the deer map, just pushing him to deer, it's so much more consistent, no point

02:54:12.780 --> 02:54:17.060
trying to risk it early on, especially when you're playing your trusty Vietnamese, you

02:54:17.060 --> 02:54:19.140
He's invested a lot of time into the civilization.

02:54:19.140 --> 02:54:22.700
So Pig with the Vietnamese is likely to play a fast feudal rush.

02:54:22.700 --> 02:54:25.060
So on Arabia, you have a bunch of strategies that could work, of course.

02:54:25.060 --> 02:54:26.060
It's a balanced map.

02:54:26.060 --> 02:54:27.060
It's pretty open.

02:54:27.060 --> 02:54:29.860
So you can, you know, wall it up a little bit and play defensive, or you can just try

02:54:29.860 --> 02:54:33.460
to play some early aggression yourself with some army and attack your opponents in the

02:54:33.460 --> 02:54:34.740
early game.

02:54:34.740 --> 02:54:39.180
And Pig has only showed us fast feudal age so far with the Vietnamese, something like

02:54:39.180 --> 02:54:40.180
Scouts or Archers.

02:54:40.180 --> 02:54:45.700
He gets house temporarily, but nothing too crazy, just a little bit of out of town center.

02:54:45.700 --> 02:54:49.740
The Captain Lancet with the Incas has a lot more potential to do some weird stuff.

02:54:49.740 --> 02:54:51.740
And we'll keep an eye if anything does come weird.

02:54:51.740 --> 02:54:55.340
He could fast-feudal play a standard opening himself, or he could try to play towards a

02:54:55.340 --> 02:54:56.340
fast castle.

02:54:56.340 --> 02:54:57.580
Try to go for some kind of all-in.

02:54:57.580 --> 02:54:58.580
We'll see what he goes for.

02:54:58.580 --> 02:55:00.860
Incas are a bit flexible in that regard.

02:55:00.860 --> 02:55:09.140
Yeah, we've been talking about Captain Lancet's options here, you know, just trying weird

02:55:09.140 --> 02:55:10.140
stuff.

02:55:10.140 --> 02:55:12.140
Champies, Gamma Yooks, etc.

02:55:12.140 --> 02:55:17.380
My question now to you is, wouldn't Fire Lancers just be a good answer from Vietnamese, especially

02:55:17.380 --> 02:55:19.980
with the extra HP that they're getting?

02:55:19.980 --> 02:55:22.580
It's a good question, Fire Lancers.

02:55:22.580 --> 02:55:27.940
Maybe against certain things, against champions, I feel like the Fire Lancers should own them.

02:55:27.940 --> 02:55:32.140
Against Camuqs, I'm not sure if the Fire Lancers are beating Camuqs.

02:55:32.140 --> 02:55:35.980
I think at most, it's like an even trade, but I feel like the Camuqs are the slightly

02:55:35.980 --> 02:55:38.660
stronger infantry, especially when massed.

02:55:38.660 --> 02:55:44.020
It is a good option for pick to keep in mind that he does have that fire lancer with extra HP. It's a very strong unit

02:55:44.020 --> 02:55:46.020
It's an all-around good unit as well

02:55:47.020 --> 02:55:53.980
And by the way, I've seen these walls they call them cuts. I think it's almost guaranteed to be a fast castle unique unit from Captain Lance

02:55:53.980 --> 02:55:55.980
I'm not sure though. He is thinking to loom early

02:55:56.660 --> 02:56:04.940
Maybe not, but I think you might find it hard to resist that loom. Sorry that stone at the back a little bit of fighting here

02:56:04.940 --> 02:56:11.940
With the Villager coming in though, this is going to be a good trade for the blue player, red backs off and blue backs off as well.

02:56:11.940 --> 02:56:14.940
Ok, fast feudal.

02:56:14.940 --> 02:56:21.940
We have loom though, fast feudal or not. I'm happy to see that, especially on open maps.

02:56:21.940 --> 02:56:26.940
Yeah, yeah, it's good to see the loom come in of course. It's been a huge topic in this tournament man.

02:56:26.940 --> 02:56:30.940
Just the loom just doesn't come through and we lose a lot of extra villagers.

02:56:30.940 --> 02:56:36.060
Scout was safe ended up running back into the town center. That's not entirely picks fault

02:56:36.060 --> 02:56:37.980
He probably wanted to go around here

02:56:37.980 --> 02:56:43.580
But because it was walled the scout path towards the town center and oh what is this tap lances going forward?

02:56:45.100 --> 02:56:48.700
Are they are those just hunting emus or are they gonna go forward?

02:56:50.900 --> 02:56:52.900
Okay, what if oh

02:56:53.020 --> 02:56:55.180
He has one of stone is he tower rushing?

02:56:55.180 --> 02:57:02.280
He might be tower rushing. Oh, it's champions and towers. It's champion and towers for captain lands

02:57:02.700 --> 02:57:04.620
Okay, very fun strategies

02:57:04.620 --> 02:57:08.940
of course Incas the champion warrior think of it like a hybrid between the Eagle warrior and

02:57:09.380 --> 02:57:13.420
The militia line if you don't know what any of those units are no problem

02:57:13.420 --> 02:57:20.220
Think of it like a decent fast infantry unit not too strong not too fast that a mix of you know both of those attributes

02:57:20.220 --> 02:57:26.060
Pig is going to go for the slow but tanky Mino-Arms strategy here and he's gonna go

02:57:26.060 --> 02:57:31.020
ahead and attack his opponent. Pig of course has no idea this forward is here. He lost

02:57:31.020 --> 02:57:36.340
his scouts so these Mino-Arms will run into a viper. Gotta watch out. And he's gonna try

02:57:36.340 --> 02:57:41.100
to make his way across the map here and pressure Captain Lance. Fast range transition behind

02:57:41.100 --> 02:57:45.220
this. Mino-Arms into range, maybe into archers. Let's see what Captain Lance can do. He's

02:57:45.220 --> 02:57:47.220
sneaking around with three villagers.

02:57:47.220 --> 02:57:50.920
Oh my god, is that the right amount though?

02:57:50.920 --> 02:57:58.200
It feels like, he has to be very careful where he places that tower because if Pig sees it,

02:57:58.200 --> 02:58:04.040
he could just like counter tower with all of his wood line and then, yeah, I mean, his

02:58:04.040 --> 02:58:07.640
tower is gonna go up faster, however, I don't think he's going to spot any of that.

02:58:07.640 --> 02:58:12.880
But, this is the blind tower, he doesn't even know that Pig is on this wood line, he's

02:58:12.880 --> 02:58:13.880
gonna confirm it right now.

02:58:13.880 --> 02:58:16.720
He was ready to just tower any woodland. That's crazy talk

02:58:16.920 --> 02:58:22.180
Kind of gets lucky that he towered the right woodland because pig could have been here for all that captain Lance knew

02:58:23.240 --> 02:58:25.240
That was like

02:58:25.280 --> 02:58:28.200
Bit of a bit of a gamble there from him, but it's gonna pay off and

02:58:28.720 --> 02:58:32.920
Now by the way captain Lance losses initial champion warrior to the town center as well men arms in the back

02:58:33.120 --> 02:58:35.440
Pig could actually snag a villager here

02:58:36.080 --> 02:58:40.920
And he does pig with the first eco KD here, but one

02:58:40.920 --> 02:58:42.920
Can you get out of the other side?

02:58:42.920 --> 02:58:44.920
Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.

02:58:44.920 --> 02:58:46.920
I don't know where.

02:58:46.920 --> 02:58:48.920
The champion is hitting a villager.

02:58:48.920 --> 02:58:50.920
I think the tower might have helped out as well.

02:58:50.920 --> 02:58:52.920
So villager died here for pig.

02:58:52.920 --> 02:58:54.920
A second tower.

02:58:54.920 --> 02:58:56.920
I think a tower with fletching

02:58:56.920 --> 02:58:58.920
would have already hit the woodline.

02:58:58.920 --> 02:59:00.920
Oh my god.

02:59:00.920 --> 02:59:02.920
Pig is broken in.

02:59:02.920 --> 02:59:04.920
The men are under in.

02:59:04.920 --> 02:59:06.920
The men are under damage.

02:59:06.920 --> 02:59:08.920
Catmulans is beating the villagers though.

02:59:08.920 --> 02:59:14.640
pig's forced to run. A little detail here is that the Inca villagers get

02:59:14.640 --> 02:59:19.840
affected by the blacksmith upgrade upgrades but in Castle Age not in feudal.

02:59:19.840 --> 02:59:26.320
So maybe those villagers would have been a tiny bit tankier. Not any time now and

02:59:26.320 --> 02:59:32.640
also there's no blacksmith upgrade to begin with. A villager goes down and

02:59:32.640 --> 02:59:36.360
decent damage for pig but now he's got those nasty towers to deal with and also

02:59:36.360 --> 02:59:40.360
a few champions on the field still. Like, honestly, Advantage pig in the early game?

02:59:40.360 --> 02:59:44.840
He had a very strong man-arm rush, but it's nasty to play this position. Look at this.

02:59:44.840 --> 02:59:48.600
Lumberkamp denied with the two towers. You do kill that champion warrior, but now you're

02:59:48.600 --> 02:59:52.040
relying entirely on stragglers. He's trying to go offensively with these archers. He's

02:59:52.040 --> 02:59:55.360
doing well with them, but at home, McCatlaser just slipped them through with these three

02:59:55.360 --> 03:00:00.080
villagers. This is such a messy game now. This is crazy.

03:00:00.080 --> 03:00:07.080
And this is turning into who's reacting better, who's taking less damage at the top of the game.

03:00:07.080 --> 03:00:11.800
Because right now, Captain Lance was chasing that MetaM, MetaM, that RTC.

03:00:11.800 --> 03:00:15.880
Those two villagers now are idle there. I don't know when he's going to even notice them.

03:00:18.280 --> 03:00:23.680
Tower for Captain Lance, defensive tower from Pig. Good hold on that defensive tower Pig.

03:00:23.680 --> 03:00:26.680
He could have done one here, but he decided to not go for it.

03:00:26.680 --> 03:00:30.680
And only now brings out the fence and tower. These villagers are in trouble by the way.

03:00:30.680 --> 03:00:35.680
A house here and Pig has trapped them. Without the house though, they could potentially just run past.

03:00:35.680 --> 03:00:42.680
Pig missed on the opportunity to trap those villagers. Two archers on the field, so Pig could push this back.

03:00:42.680 --> 03:00:46.680
We have some champions that continue to harass. A villager is low HP, the champion will kill it.

03:00:46.680 --> 03:00:51.680
Captain Lance hesitates, then he goes back for it and Captain Lance loses the champion of the town center.

03:00:51.680 --> 03:00:56.720
Such a messy game, Villagers was running everywhere, this is what Captain Lance thrives on though,

03:00:56.720 --> 03:00:59.760
he likes to make it messy 3-2 in terms of eco KD so far.

03:01:01.520 --> 03:01:04.240
Pegas killed one extra Villager compared to the blue player and

03:01:04.960 --> 03:01:08.960
Villagers continues to run around, Infantry Armor coming in, it's in effect the Champions quite nicely,

03:01:08.960 --> 03:01:12.640
but the Archers are still king of the map right now with the Fletching early,

03:01:12.640 --> 03:01:15.120
for Pegas doing really well right now, wow.

03:01:15.120 --> 03:01:28.120
Yeah, he's going to push all of this back. If those two archers, which in my opinion should continue to chase all of that, those could be three dead villagers from Captain Lens.

03:01:28.120 --> 03:01:37.120
In the meantime, his base is kind of struggling. Now he has six villagers bringing in food, but a lot of those farms are new.

03:01:37.120 --> 03:01:43.120
No food in the bank to even create villagers for so long, idle to see time is starting to pile up.

03:01:43.120 --> 03:01:52.120
By the way, Captain Lance is trying to be sneaky there, he has to split one villager off to distract, but Pig is not going to fall for that, he's been playing RTS for too long.

03:01:52.120 --> 03:02:01.120
There's a novice's mistake there, Pig is not going to fall for it, and three villagers all go down the champion as well, looking to see what happened, will die and lose his life.

03:02:01.120 --> 03:02:07.120
Dude, Captain Lance is so far behind now, that was a terrible one minute for Captain Lance.

03:02:07.120 --> 03:02:11.160
And now despite having a great map with all those resources to the back besides the berries

03:02:11.160 --> 03:02:16.160
He's got no military on the field pick and counter attack pigs got a crazy village advantage

03:02:16.240 --> 03:02:21.880
Six villagers killed for pig and only two killed for captain Lance despite these two towers being somewhat annoying

03:02:22.080 --> 03:02:24.080
Pig has a great position on the map right now

03:02:25.200 --> 03:02:29.640
The thing is pig stabilized quite nicely. He pushed all of this back

03:02:30.320 --> 03:02:36.640
What I think he should be working on it right now would be walling his base because what interrupt his eco

03:02:36.640 --> 03:02:40.640
which is, again, random champions that are gonna come forward with more villagers.

03:02:40.640 --> 03:02:46.640
Look at the minimap. There's just like a trail of blue going straight for a big space.

03:02:46.640 --> 03:02:51.640
You don't want any of that. You don't want more disruption. You wanna play your clean game.

03:02:51.640 --> 03:02:56.640
This is insane. This is Captain Lance. Captain Lance just, I don't know,

03:02:56.640 --> 03:03:00.640
he just can't sit back and play a regular game. He just has to do something crazy.

03:03:00.640 --> 03:03:03.640
He's not playing regular Arabia. This villager is caught out though,

03:03:03.640 --> 03:03:09.400
And that villager will die so pig kills another villager. He's pressuring the gold very nicely men arm

03:03:10.360 --> 03:03:13.120
Yeah, just kind of kills himself to be fair

03:03:14.000 --> 03:03:15.500
How's this towers looking though?

03:03:15.500 --> 03:03:21.320
Champ is onto the woodland remember these guys have armor is hard to fight them now two towers for captain Lance couple archers

03:03:21.320 --> 03:03:24.240
Don't for pig to defend looking okay for Lance somewhat I guess

03:03:25.400 --> 03:03:27.120
You feel like those

03:03:27.120 --> 03:03:33.280
Armored champions should come and deal with all of those archers and both of the towers could go up

03:03:33.280 --> 03:03:35.560
He is pulling them back, which is great

03:03:36.240 --> 03:03:43.040
You're saying that kind of killing himself. Well, I think he knows I think he's just trying to take pick down with him as well

03:03:43.040 --> 03:03:48.460
Oh my god. Oh my god pig is not messing around the Australian villagers coming forward

03:03:49.360 --> 03:03:51.360
15 of these holdings insane

03:03:51.880 --> 03:03:55.320
They backs up he backs up. I think you get a weapon that no

03:03:57.840 --> 03:04:02.940
Yeah, and a really really good quick was there from Captain Lance. Yeah, I was insane

03:04:03.280 --> 03:04:07.920
Dude this game is wait. What is going on pig is just under Lance's town center

03:04:08.040 --> 03:04:13.680
Lance did not pay attention some villagers going down here to the archers the tower goes up

03:04:14.720 --> 03:04:18.680
Dude, it's a bloodbath, but right now ten villagers lead a four pigs

03:04:18.680 --> 03:04:23.480
So the rent player here is in a in a commanding position. It's so messy though

03:04:23.480 --> 03:04:29.680
I wouldn't really say he's winning entirely even though he does have the lead. He has to really close this out correctly

03:04:29.680 --> 03:04:30.680
Exactly.

03:04:30.680 --> 03:04:35.720
Yeah, I mean everything seems to be going in pig's favor.

03:04:35.720 --> 03:04:40.120
He just needs to, you know, not overly panic here.

03:04:40.120 --> 03:04:44.080
I mean, his base is looking nice, look at the resources in the bank, they're starting

03:04:44.080 --> 03:04:48.360
to pile up, he's going to be able to click up the castle each soon.

03:04:48.360 --> 03:04:56.480
If we're looking at the idle TC time, well, we'd better not, the captainess has more idle,

03:04:56.480 --> 03:05:00.680
Oh, set any more champions forward. I mean, why not?

03:05:00.680 --> 03:05:04.520
Hey, you just gotta continue reinforcing at this point and try to make something happen, Pig.

03:05:04.520 --> 03:05:09.540
I want to seem just stabilizing to go to Castle Edge, because all these shenanigans could catch him

03:05:09.540 --> 03:05:14.320
if you just get to Castle Edge. Suddenly you have Siege to kill the towers, you got Knights to

03:05:14.320 --> 03:05:18.760
counterattack, you got Fire Lancers that just beat everything, you got Crossbows that are hard to deal

03:05:18.760 --> 03:05:24.920
with, you have all these tools that completely shut down a Tower Rush and I think give very little

03:05:24.920 --> 03:05:28.680
chance for a throw. So I want to see Pig just cancel these three bills, make his way through

03:05:28.680 --> 03:05:32.240
the castleage, he's getting a market, he's expanding through that stone, considering

03:05:32.240 --> 03:05:36.000
maybe a castle drop or maybe more towers for himself. Let's see, Katmance has a few more

03:05:36.000 --> 03:05:40.040
minutes with Pig stuck in the feudal edge. Can you make it happen? Forging to begin another

03:05:40.040 --> 03:05:44.800
tower, he's committed to the feudal pressure, the castleage is clicked two minutes and a

03:05:44.800 --> 03:05:48.360
half, so that one hits four Mr Pig.

03:05:48.360 --> 03:06:00.080
I mean, the timing of Catholic is going to be absolutely fantastic here for Pig, but

03:06:00.080 --> 03:06:03.800
where's he going to take wood from right now?

03:06:03.800 --> 03:06:05.920
That's a good question.

03:06:05.920 --> 03:06:07.640
That's a really good question.

03:06:07.640 --> 03:06:10.520
What if he doesn't take wood and just takes a lot of stone?

03:06:10.520 --> 03:06:14.400
He could, but I think he's panicking right now.

03:06:14.400 --> 03:06:19.940
Oh, he's just gonna stay with the back. He's got a panic. He's looking for a wood line. He knows about this one at least

03:06:25.380 --> 03:06:29.140
Okay, well, I definitely a

03:06:31.100 --> 03:06:35.860
Weird position for captain unless I don't know what his reaction is going to be at the site of Castle Age

03:06:36.180 --> 03:06:39.500
Do you think he's just going to try to even flood more champions?

03:06:39.500 --> 03:06:45.800
Do you think he recognizes that, well, this is kind of doomed, might as well just go to Arena next?

03:06:47.000 --> 03:06:50.240
I mean, maybe, but, to be fair, he's kind of catching Pig a little bit.

03:06:50.240 --> 03:06:53.240
Kill the villager, deny the stable, Pig immediately cancels that.

03:06:53.480 --> 03:06:58.160
Pig is taking so much damage to something that really shouldn't be hurting him as much as it is.

03:06:58.440 --> 03:07:00.040
More towers coming in.

03:07:00.440 --> 03:07:02.280
I think it is still playable for Lance.

03:07:02.280 --> 03:07:07.120
You can buy so much time with a tower rush against a player that's inexperienced in dealing with it,

03:07:07.120 --> 03:07:11.220
and of course Pig, with his limited time playing Age of Empires, how many times has he been

03:07:11.220 --> 03:07:16.220
championed Tower Rush before? Probably never, maybe like once. So I think this is very playable

03:07:16.220 --> 03:07:20.820
for Cap Lanz despite Pig being in a theoretically way better position. Let's see what Pig can

03:07:20.820 --> 03:07:25.300
do. His table got denied, he's got a lot of resources, no resign out of Lanz, he's going

03:07:25.300 --> 03:07:31.220
to continue playing, continue grinding, and now he's a fighter. Pig is time choking, I

03:07:31.220 --> 03:07:32.220
don't know.

03:07:32.220 --> 03:07:49.220
You were right, I feel like in this tournament, just because a lot of them had only a limited time to learn the game and so many units and such, they focus on a couple of sieves each to know all about them.

03:07:49.220 --> 03:07:58.220
But you can still be taken by surprise by the sieves that you haven't played yet against, that maybe other players might have prepared other units.

03:07:58.220 --> 03:08:03.580
It's like this is different pigs. So like, you know, obviously not the cleanest defense, but just getting to castlage

03:08:03.580 --> 03:08:08.800
Get into crossbow. That's exactly what we talked about earlier in through it. You could be rough. But once you get to castlage

03:08:09.580 --> 03:08:15.060
You're tacking your army. It just becomes a lot stronger there. So Bob can arrow comes through across was just really good

03:08:15.060 --> 03:08:19.700
He's in deny that tower cab lines is about 24 villagers. Like that's a terrible terrible economy

03:08:20.300 --> 03:08:23.320
Love out of DC town and one crossbow comes through pig

03:08:23.320 --> 03:08:27.820
That's gonna be annoying to deal with that's exactly what we want to see if you're supporting pig tower goes down

03:08:27.820 --> 03:08:32.140
siege workshop at the back if he loves that back of the map by the way it's kind of funny yeah he

03:08:32.140 --> 03:08:38.460
wants to put a stable bear was denied and now we're gonna see a siege workshop um yeah I mean

03:08:38.460 --> 03:08:44.540
you're right he big lost a couple of villagers of his own but I mean at the end of the day killed

03:08:44.540 --> 03:08:50.380
most of the military and it's always going to be so much easier for pig to replace that military

03:08:50.380 --> 03:08:56.700
that he lost as well but I mean he's so much more ahead in terms of eco given with the kills

03:08:56.700 --> 03:09:01.740
the captain lens pulled right now. I think it's just too far ahead economically.

03:09:03.020 --> 03:09:07.340
Yeah, pig. Nice tower there as well. So I'm really not taking any risks with the woodline.

03:09:07.340 --> 03:09:12.300
Has the crossbow tech as well. The one crossbow somehow dealt with in the back of that woodline.

03:09:14.620 --> 03:09:18.140
Yeah, I think pig is in a good position. He's going to get a couple elephants out.

03:09:18.140 --> 03:09:22.060
Maybe a ram. He's going to go for a manganelle. Actually, I think ram is really good versus

03:09:22.060 --> 03:09:26.040
towers, but I think these players so far in this tournament have been valuing the

03:09:26.040 --> 03:09:30.560
manganelle as far as the siege to take out towers. It's also decent, it's also

03:09:30.560 --> 03:09:34.680
pretty good, but I think the ram is slightly better in certain cases. Either way,

03:09:34.680 --> 03:09:38.160
that would be fine if there were those towers with some siege.

03:09:38.160 --> 03:09:44.120
Yeah, definitely. Elephants though, elephants moving forward, that's scary for

03:09:44.120 --> 03:09:49.360
someone in feudal age. It's just like getting some lemons, what are even those

03:09:49.360 --> 03:09:57.680
just living on a farm. That's a scary elephant to see approaching you.

03:09:57.680 --> 03:10:01.600
Yeah, we got sticks and stones, we got men's with clubs and there's an elephant charging

03:10:01.600 --> 03:10:06.080
towards us who will toss and everything. He's just going to go for it, so we'll keep

03:10:06.080 --> 03:10:09.840
an eye on that elephant, but back here a few raids again, it's only feudal age units,

03:10:09.840 --> 03:10:16.520
not that scary anymore. Easily dealt with here. One or two villas go down, but overall

03:10:16.520 --> 03:10:21.080
Champions go down here and that's all about the elephant now elephant at the back of the base. Oh, perfect

03:10:21.080 --> 03:10:24.760
He said pockets of the berries. Oh, this is the vastest. How scary is this chat?

03:10:24.800 --> 03:10:29.120
You're working there nine to five hundred elephant shows up and you mean business. This is crazy. Oh

03:10:30.880 --> 03:10:34.120
My honey, they're running for their lives. I mean I get it

03:10:34.680 --> 03:10:37.780
Who wouldn't I would do I think one last bite though

03:10:38.640 --> 03:10:40.400
Yeah, but are you?

03:10:40.400 --> 03:10:42.880
Are you running towards your full of space though?

03:10:42.880 --> 03:10:49.000
Honestly, he just sent them forward. These guys are now tower rushing villagers. We're gonna tower some more. It's good

03:10:49.360 --> 03:10:52.880
This is fantastic. Camelons is exactly where he wants to be right now

03:10:53.640 --> 03:10:57.460
Not really though because he's on funny villagers and in a horrible position

03:10:58.320 --> 03:11:00.960
Pig has defended everything here and and pig is looking to equalize

03:11:01.760 --> 03:11:05.440
As a jokes aside, I feel like pig very happy with this gameplay here

03:11:05.440 --> 03:11:10.980
It's as one a game with a trusted Vietnamese. I really don't see a way for Camelons to pull this back from this position

03:11:12.880 --> 03:11:15.760
And I think he's very happy with how this game is going.

03:11:15.760 --> 03:11:19.880
I don't think he's very happy with his wounding coming, he's here on the wood, all of his

03:11:19.880 --> 03:11:21.880
lumberjacks are just fighting champions.

03:11:21.880 --> 03:11:22.880
They're warriors.

03:11:22.880 --> 03:11:24.880
They're not getting killed actually, yeah.

03:11:24.880 --> 03:11:25.880
Elephants here though, thank god.

03:11:25.880 --> 03:11:29.880
Let the elephant do the fighting and it will do the chopping and repair that tower.

03:11:29.880 --> 03:11:30.880
That tower has held a lot though.

03:11:30.880 --> 03:11:31.880
That tower has been very good.

03:11:31.880 --> 03:11:36.880
It's got five kills in its own right by the way and there's just more towers for Captain

03:11:36.880 --> 03:11:37.880
Lance.

03:11:37.880 --> 03:11:38.880
That's all he knows how to do this game.

03:11:38.880 --> 03:11:40.880
It's just towers and champions.

03:11:40.880 --> 03:11:42.280
It worked okay, but...

03:11:42.280 --> 03:11:44.780
...Magnon, I'll see you here now, this could be a double kill.

03:11:44.780 --> 03:11:47.520
No, go, go Pig, don't be scared!

03:11:47.520 --> 03:11:51.680
Pig is backing up with the Mangonel, this is a really true double kill.

03:11:51.680 --> 03:11:55.180
But I mean, look at this, elephants and crossbows on the other side.

03:11:55.180 --> 03:11:57.380
Pig is in such a position.

03:11:57.380 --> 03:12:00.980
He was focusing there, he got a couple of kills from that wood line.

03:12:00.980 --> 03:12:06.180
Lance is panicking, we were talking about Pig's wood line, but now Captain Lance, all of a sudden,

03:12:06.180 --> 03:12:17.180
He's reinforcing that gold for his life, but he doesn't have a wincomber right now nor resources to build a new settlement.

03:12:17.180 --> 03:12:24.180
Oh my god, that's true. He can only long distance take wood or reek them in the settlement, which is not possible.

03:12:24.180 --> 03:12:30.180
It's a fantastic push. Like, Kavans is in a lot of pain. His villagers can only take gold right now.

03:12:30.180 --> 03:12:41.180
He doesn't even have a market, so he's just gonna start floating gold, and gold that he can't spend, he can't make a market, he's got one wood in the stockpile, he's got like a tree branch in the stockpile, and no villagers on wood.

03:12:41.180 --> 03:12:53.180
This is horrible for Captain Lance, and it's looking great for Pig, Pig's in a fantastic position, Elephants, Siege, Crossbows, all that castage tech, proving to be superior than this feudal-aged tower rush.

03:12:53.180 --> 03:12:57.180
And he just, what is moments away from the screen, basically, at this point?

03:12:57.180 --> 03:13:02.620
he's ready again with champions and 4 figs you cannot catch a break at that

03:13:02.620 --> 03:13:09.020
woodline or at any woodline. It deals with this time but continues to fight back

03:13:09.020 --> 03:13:14.260
to captain Lance's base he's taking the stragglers trying to find some pauses

03:13:14.260 --> 03:13:18.340
for him but there's really nothing to talk about and he drops the GG pig is

03:13:18.340 --> 03:13:23.300
taking game two guys GG in the chat we're gonna equalize the game pig doesn't

03:13:23.300 --> 03:13:27.100
drop the surrender so he's not talking some smack like Captain Lance was in

03:13:27.100 --> 03:13:30.740
game one. He's taken the high road it seems of course it's only friendly

03:13:30.740 --> 03:13:34.940
banter but yeah GG is called. We have a series on our hands and Captain Lance

03:13:34.940 --> 03:13:39.460
has lost the last three Arabian games he's played in this tournament. It's a

03:13:39.460 --> 03:13:43.940
significant weakness that Captain Lance has. He's only made it through because

03:13:43.940 --> 03:13:48.020
he's won the fortress and he's won the two arenas but he has not been winning

03:13:48.020 --> 03:13:52.380
the Arabian games. So that just shows a clear difference between Captain Lance

03:13:52.380 --> 03:13:55.440
and some of the other players. He's favoriting Arena and the others are

03:13:55.440 --> 03:13:59.040
playing some Arabia. Good equalizer, 1-1. Good job from Pig.

03:13:59.040 --> 03:14:05.340
Yeah, it feels like this is a similar situation with when, you know, two pros are facing each

03:14:05.340 --> 03:14:10.360
other in a tournament, and you have a Siv draft and a map draft, and in the map draft,

03:14:10.360 --> 03:14:15.180
each of those players have, you know, their home maps. Their home maps, they're very

03:14:15.180 --> 03:14:20.780
confident on, they practice it a lot of times with certain Sivs that they managed to sneak

03:14:20.780 --> 03:14:27.420
to receive draft so they are very confident. So it all comes down then in that situation if everyone

03:14:27.420 --> 03:14:34.940
is just winning their home maps to who won the first map, the admin map basically, the one that

03:14:34.940 --> 03:14:41.980
you start on. And if this is going to be the situation in this set, if at every loss pig is

03:14:41.980 --> 03:14:48.780
going to just go for Arabia and capital ends for arena and they're each going to win the map that

03:14:48.780 --> 03:14:55.020
they're most comfortable on, Captain Lance has an advantage in my opinion. Pig has to

03:14:56.380 --> 03:15:00.940
has to be creative in one of those arenas. Yeah, that's true. He's got to win one arena at least

03:15:00.940 --> 03:15:04.860
if we assume that Captain Lance will pick both arenas, which he has no reason not to, right?

03:15:05.580 --> 03:15:11.340
See if I can confirm if the home map is indeed arena. We don't know yet, but it's very likely to

03:15:11.340 --> 03:15:15.340
be arena. I'm just waiting for the next thing to start. But yeah, absolutely. Pig has to win an

03:15:15.340 --> 03:15:19.340
arena game. She wants to win this best of five. I'll show you guys the bracket real quick because

03:15:19.340 --> 03:15:23.740
you have a lot of guys just coming in for now. This is the upper bracket final between Cap Lanz

03:15:23.740 --> 03:15:28.060
and Pig. It's all 1-1 equalized. After this, we're going to have the euthanermal grubby matchup

03:15:28.060 --> 03:15:32.380
in the loser's bracket. Loser of that is out and winner of that will play the loser of this set.

03:15:32.380 --> 03:15:37.980
So this is the final day in the last four sets of the tournaments. And so far, it's been delivering.

03:15:37.980 --> 03:15:42.540
It's a really, really close set. So I'm excited to see what's to come for the day. But Pig and

03:15:42.540 --> 03:15:47.020
Captain Lance so far at 1-1, pretty close, and we're waiting for Captain Lance's home map.

03:15:51.420 --> 03:15:54.380
See, it is going to be Arena.

03:15:54.380 --> 03:15:56.060
It's Arena. It's Arena.

03:15:56.060 --> 03:16:04.060
Yeah, I think so. I think they won the dashboard. Probably just thinking about some seeds.

03:16:04.060 --> 03:16:09.980
That's obvious, right? Like Captain Lance has to play Arena. He's clearly not as good on Arabia

03:16:09.980 --> 03:16:14.340
as he is on some of the other maps. I actually feel like Captain Lance is his own worst enemy

03:16:14.340 --> 03:16:18.100
on Arabia. He keeps trying to do weird stuff and none of it's working out. I wonder if

03:16:18.100 --> 03:16:22.300
he just plays a regular game, just opens archers. I wonder how that plays out for him. Maybe

03:16:22.300 --> 03:16:26.300
he's just not as bad of an Arabia player as he thinks he is, and he doesn't have to do

03:16:26.300 --> 03:16:32.580
anything too weird to get that win. But maybe it's that lack of confidence in the meta game

03:16:32.580 --> 03:16:36.740
that forces him into some weird stuff, but the weird stuff just hasn't really been working

03:16:36.740 --> 03:16:40.080
too well. We'll see what happens with Captain Lance and his Arabian skills.

03:16:40.080 --> 03:16:45.020
But for now, it's going to be his home map on Arena. Pig is not helpless on Arena. Pig has played a lot of

03:16:45.020 --> 03:16:50.820
Bohemians on Arena, and he plays them in a style, in my opinion, that is quite good

03:16:50.820 --> 03:16:54.460
into Captain Lance's forward castles that we saw against you

03:16:54.460 --> 03:16:58.140
Thermal yesterday. Thermal was playing more like, okay I'm gonna boom, but then

03:16:58.140 --> 03:17:02.740
Captain Lance pushes him, whereas Pig almost always makes some army before

03:17:02.740 --> 03:17:06.300
going for the boom on Arena. And so I feel like Pig is in a better position to

03:17:06.300 --> 03:17:11.940
defending his captain Lance than we think he is. Yeah, definitely. Maybe he just doesn't

03:17:11.940 --> 03:17:17.660
like it, Hera. There are some people that he just don't like Arabia. They don't like

03:17:17.660 --> 03:17:20.780
Arabia, but Daniela, I don't like a lot of maps and tournaments, but I stopped to play

03:17:20.780 --> 03:17:26.500
them. Yeah, you still have to prepare for them. Yeah, I mean, you just got to play the winning

03:17:26.500 --> 03:17:30.300
strategies. But like, I think it's just a lack of confidence on Captain Lance. I mean,

03:17:30.300 --> 03:17:33.420
I don't mind it because I think his his off meta and his like, you know, quote unquote

03:17:33.420 --> 03:17:35.740
cheese, whatever you want to call it, could work on Arabia.

03:17:35.740 --> 03:17:40.540
It just hasn't been working yet in the tournament, at least not against the top players that he's

03:17:40.540 --> 03:17:42.180
faced in the last couple of rounds.

03:17:42.180 --> 03:17:43.180
Definitely.

03:17:43.180 --> 03:17:51.460
Turks Bohemians, some of the sieves that we've seen the most in this tournament on Arena,

03:17:51.460 --> 03:17:57.740
taking to the classics, no aces in the sleeves, no hidden strategies.

03:17:57.740 --> 03:18:02.340
I absolutely love this, by the way.

03:18:02.340 --> 03:18:03.340
This matchup is sick.

03:18:03.340 --> 03:18:05.780
Ladies and gentlemen, we're in for a banger.

03:18:05.780 --> 03:18:08.500
This is the double gunpowder matchup.

03:18:08.500 --> 03:18:09.580
Turks vs Bohemians.

03:18:09.580 --> 03:18:10.860
We'll talk about the civilizations.

03:18:10.860 --> 03:18:12.340
We've talked about them plenty.

03:18:12.340 --> 03:18:14.260
Pegas played a lot of Bohemians.

03:18:14.260 --> 03:18:17.060
This is one of the best civilizations in late game.

03:18:17.060 --> 03:18:21.140
The Hufnitsa, the upgrade on the bomber cannon in Imp, super, super strong.

03:18:21.140 --> 03:18:22.340
They've got a fantastic economy.

03:18:22.340 --> 03:18:25.420
They have a gunpowder unique unit to go for.

03:18:25.420 --> 03:18:27.500
Overall, same description for Turks.

03:18:27.500 --> 03:18:29.060
Turks have a fantastic late game.

03:18:29.060 --> 03:18:31.540
Decent economy with extra gold coming in faster.

03:18:31.540 --> 03:18:36.260
They get a lot of free upgrades and tempo pushes as they advance through the ages.

03:18:36.260 --> 03:18:38.700
And then the big thing is they also have a gunpowder uniqueness.

03:18:38.700 --> 03:18:43.300
If they can go gunpowder and castleage, which is not the usual, most of us don't have access

03:18:43.300 --> 03:18:44.300
to that.

03:18:44.300 --> 03:18:45.700
So Daniella, Turks were Bohemians.

03:18:45.700 --> 03:18:47.300
Which civilization do you favor?

03:18:47.300 --> 03:18:51.940
And how do you see this matchup playing out, just like the skeleton of it, let's say?

03:18:51.940 --> 03:18:56.780
Personally, I think I like Bohemians more.

03:18:56.780 --> 03:19:03.420
I know usually, especially for the newer player that are learning the way to play Arena and

03:19:03.420 --> 03:19:06.540
everything, Turks are just more comfortable.

03:19:06.540 --> 03:19:13.580
They're hitting some very nice power spikes, especially in early Imperial Age, with the

03:19:13.580 --> 03:19:16.340
free bomber cannons, which is a fantastic unit.

03:19:16.340 --> 03:19:22.980
But even more so, even before that in Castle Age, the castle already starts producing the

03:19:22.980 --> 03:19:25.340
unique unit, which is a gunpowder.

03:19:25.340 --> 03:19:29.980
The sieves that get Gunpowder in Castle Age are very strong, that particular unit, if

03:19:29.980 --> 03:19:34.140
you get a mass of them, it's high attack, it's hard to stop.

03:19:34.140 --> 03:19:40.820
Now Bohemians of course get hand cannoniers in Castle Age because they unlock chemistry

03:19:40.820 --> 03:19:47.540
in Castle Age, that's from their suit bonus, but getting there, you need a mini-boom, it's

03:19:47.540 --> 03:19:55.300
slow, it takes a while, it is strong, but it's not as easy to just open Gunpowder.

03:19:55.300 --> 03:20:01.420
Like it is for Turks. Yeah, that's true. That's true. Like and that's not really what we've been seeing from pig

03:20:01.420 --> 03:20:05.520
So what pig tends to go for here? He's done it kind of most of his games in arena

03:20:05.540 --> 03:20:11.100
He'll just go with a castle drop a few his site wagons the unique unit from behemians and he'll try to play for the relics

03:20:11.100 --> 03:20:16.740
That's what he likes to go for. I want to see one strategy from Captain Lance that we haven't seen from anybody

03:20:16.780 --> 03:20:22.020
But I've been saying it's a really good strategy for this level of event

03:20:22.020 --> 03:20:26.340
It's the Turk fast imp. Now if he goes for it, I'll talk more about it

03:20:26.460 --> 03:20:31.180
But the only way he goes for it is if he goes for something like a 28th villager dark age

03:20:31.180 --> 03:20:36.340
Okay, so keep in mind that if he goes for a really late dark age like really late futile edge click

03:20:36.340 --> 03:20:42.660
It's probably a fast imp. If he doesn't do that. It's for sure not a fast imp. I think it's a really good strap

03:20:42.660 --> 03:20:44.820
If I was in this tournament, I would do that

03:20:45.900 --> 03:20:49.300
Almost guaranteed. I think it's so strong. I think it's very hard to stop

03:20:49.300 --> 03:20:55.060
But no one's gone for it yet. Maybe captain Lance is my captain and I will say by the way

03:20:55.060 --> 03:20:57.060
It's something that isn't talked about too much, but

03:20:57.860 --> 03:21:04.460
But I love about both captain Lance and pig is that they're both really really nice people like super like soft-spoken gentle

03:21:04.460 --> 03:21:07.940
But they're quite competitive as well. I think that makes for the best competition

03:21:08.620 --> 03:21:12.820
Because it's like good banter, you know, it's it's you know, keeping it clean on both sides

03:21:12.820 --> 03:21:17.540
But both clearly want to win and are doing what they can to get that win which is which is fantastic

03:21:17.540 --> 03:21:22.540
I like that, you know, strong healthy competition to fuel these kinds of events.

03:21:23.540 --> 03:21:28.540
Yeah, definitely. It's important to keep that high competitive spirit.

03:21:28.540 --> 03:21:34.540
They both have it. That's why they are facing each other in the upper bracket in the final.

03:21:34.540 --> 03:21:39.540
Winner goes straight into the grand final later on today.

03:21:39.540 --> 03:21:45.540
Of course, the loser will still have a chance, but he's going to fight his way through it.

03:21:45.540 --> 03:21:56.820
going to have to. Yeah, I think fast M4 turks is very hard to stop. Anything below pro level?

03:21:56.820 --> 03:22:01.380
Yeah, legitimately. Like, even at pro level, I think there's a couple of tricks you can do to

03:22:01.380 --> 03:22:07.860
still make it work. And if you mess up against it, you still die to it. But no, it's not going to be

03:22:07.860 --> 03:22:12.100
the fastest. He's already queued. He's already queued through the lage. So no one's gone for it.

03:22:12.100 --> 03:22:18.460
No one's going to do the third fast. I'm really sad. I think it's such a good strategy, but it seems like Captain Lanty agrees here

03:22:18.460 --> 03:22:22.780
He's going to the gold and he's going for like kind of a solid usual opening no stone

03:22:22.980 --> 03:22:25.680
23 population is a bit fast as well by the way

03:22:27.660 --> 03:22:30.340
So I this actually makes me more confused

03:22:31.180 --> 03:22:33.180
Yeah, exactly because I guess

03:22:33.700 --> 03:22:37.060
23 23 plus 2 without stone

03:22:37.900 --> 03:22:39.620
I

03:22:39.620 --> 03:22:42.320
I don't know, he's just gonna be a pure boomer?

03:22:42.320 --> 03:22:46.220
This is really strange. That second lumber camp does not make any sense.

03:22:46.720 --> 03:22:49.420
I'm really confused with Captain Lance's opening.

03:22:50.320 --> 03:22:54.520
Pig is doing something a lot more solid in my opinion. Just gonna go for a standard.

03:22:54.520 --> 03:22:57.220
He's also 23 pop with the one lumber camp.

03:22:57.220 --> 03:23:02.220
That tells me, okay, he's got two of his idols for some reason, but that tells me he just wants to go for a regular uptime.

03:23:02.220 --> 03:23:05.920
And he'll probably play the boom or the castle drop.

03:23:05.920 --> 03:23:08.720
One of those two approaches for him.

03:23:08.720 --> 03:23:13.280
Captain Lance, I don't understand that second lumber cap, he won't be able to click up the

03:23:13.280 --> 03:23:16.960
castle age, but he's going to have a fragile economy afterwards from what I'm seeing.

03:23:16.960 --> 03:23:20.320
And he's also not going to have that castle, so I don't know.

03:23:20.320 --> 03:23:24.200
Honestly, it's a tiny bit weird from Pay as well.

03:23:24.200 --> 03:23:27.640
Okay, now he's sending what, five villagers on stone?

03:23:27.640 --> 03:23:28.640
Yeah.

03:23:28.640 --> 03:23:30.840
I, maybe it's not too late.

03:23:30.840 --> 03:23:36.200
Okay, Bohemians get the stone mining and the gold mining upgrade for free once they reach

03:23:36.200 --> 03:23:41.520
each fuel age. So I think even if you sell a hundred stone that you already have in the

03:23:41.520 --> 03:23:46.920
bank along with a hundred wood, you're still fine for a good castleish timing. And then

03:23:46.920 --> 03:23:52.960
who knows, maybe, where does the castle go though? Does it go at home? Does it go, oh

03:23:52.960 --> 03:23:54.920
no, he didn't notice that.

03:23:54.920 --> 03:23:59.640
I think so. That's a pretty good idea. It's for sure at home, by the way. Pig has never

03:23:59.640 --> 03:24:04.720
went for a forward castle. He didn't do it in the last set against Grubby. I don't think

03:24:04.720 --> 03:24:10.840
He's gonna do it against Captain Lance here and there's no loom so it's almost guaranteed to be a castle at home for pig

03:24:11.720 --> 03:24:17.280
Market blacksmiths for Captain Lance and dude. He's just messed up his builder. Honestly. He's completely messed up his build

03:24:17.280 --> 03:24:21.440
I told you guys he's he might get the castle edge. He's gonna get the loom now

03:24:21.840 --> 03:24:24.820
He needs to use the market is a terrible build for Captain Lance

03:24:25.760 --> 03:24:32.040
Generally generally generally a terrible build. He's got a lot of wood with the double lumber camp, but not a lot of farms

03:24:32.040 --> 03:24:35.120
He went up too fast, and now he can't click up.

03:24:35.120 --> 03:24:37.000
He's picking up Lume, which is not needed.

03:24:37.000 --> 03:24:39.600
He's 100 feet still short of Castelage.

03:24:39.600 --> 03:24:40.840
He's eiling his town center.

03:24:40.840 --> 03:24:44.920
Oh my God, a disaster start and a disaster build from Captain Lance.

03:24:44.920 --> 03:24:48.400
It's like you can only be greedy with so many things, right?

03:24:48.400 --> 03:24:56.880
If you're greedy with two lumber camps, you had to make that extra little earlier on.

03:24:56.880 --> 03:25:04.880
If you're going for one lumber camp, you can try to be greedy by going up faster.

03:25:04.880 --> 03:25:06.880
It feels like he tried to do too much.

03:25:06.880 --> 03:25:12.520
It's not the end of the world, but he is basically two villagers behind.

03:25:12.520 --> 03:25:16.120
He got Lume, which sets him a villager behind, and he's got 36 seconds of autopsy, which

03:25:16.120 --> 03:25:20.440
is like a villager and a half behind.

03:25:20.440 --> 03:25:24.400
It's a pretty significant disadvantage due to nothing happening besides the bad build

03:25:24.400 --> 03:25:26.400
from Captain Lance.

03:25:26.400 --> 03:25:31.280
No mistakes were forced from his opponents, no bad, you know, Borla, just a mistake in

03:25:31.280 --> 03:25:36.400
the build order, and Pig, in comparison, with a pretty clean build, he should be clean to

03:25:36.400 --> 03:25:41.000
just going for the, to be going for the castle drop, and the Hussai wagons, exactly his main

03:25:41.000 --> 03:25:43.160
game plan here.

03:25:43.160 --> 03:25:53.560
Also, I will say the build from Captain Lance, it's not very common to be seen on Turks,

03:25:53.560 --> 03:25:54.560
on Arena.

03:25:54.560 --> 03:25:59.120
It feels like you either go for the aggressive approach where you move on stone and it's

03:25:59.120 --> 03:26:04.800
going to be a castle, genoceries, either with the castle forward, pressure, either with

03:26:04.800 --> 03:26:08.120
ramps, either map control, etc.

03:26:08.120 --> 03:26:15.080
Or you go up a tiny bit later and you play stable like half of map control, play for

03:26:15.080 --> 03:26:18.240
the relics, play for the long game.

03:26:18.240 --> 03:26:24.360
Right now, he does have two villagers on gold, but he doesn't have a stable, so it's not

03:26:24.360 --> 03:26:29.640
going to be like that is going to be a pure boom. It feels like he could struggle greatly

03:26:29.640 --> 03:26:32.680
against any sort of pressure that comes from his opponent.

03:26:32.680 --> 03:26:38.880
Yeah, so like at worst Captain Lance is giving up all five relics right now. At best he gives

03:26:38.880 --> 03:26:45.440
up all map control and gets pressured. At best from Pig from Pig's position. So like

03:26:45.440 --> 03:26:49.360
at worst Pig just gets the five relics and at best he gets the five relics and he gets

03:26:49.360 --> 03:26:52.320
to push his opponent. It's kind of what I meant to say is just word it a little better

03:26:52.320 --> 03:26:54.320
for ease of understanding.

03:26:54.320 --> 03:27:00.320
Kaplan's well a 3 TC boom and a monastery, but he can't really get the relics, like how do you beat the Tairagans?

03:27:00.320 --> 03:27:08.320
Yeah, like again, another step, another extra step of greed, like oh I'm just gonna try to see if I can get the relics.

03:27:08.320 --> 03:27:19.320
Yeah, I mean if the opponent will open just like a blind 3, 4 TC boom, just keep the scout and make a monastery of his own.

03:27:19.320 --> 03:27:26.160
known, yeah, maybe, maybe you can get one or two. If there's going to be Hussite wagons,

03:27:26.160 --> 03:27:30.860
usually a unique unit you could convert with a monk Hussite wagons are considered Siege

03:27:30.860 --> 03:27:36.080
and you need a technology from the monostay called Redemption that's extremely expensive.

03:27:36.080 --> 03:27:43.160
Alright, 3TC boom. Yeah, Redemption Monks probably not really an option considering the gold income

03:27:43.160 --> 03:27:47.040
for Captain Lance is just not there to afford it. The light calf, the free upgrade of light

03:27:47.040 --> 03:27:51.880
cap for turks is nice so like the one scout you have gets additional value but

03:27:51.880 --> 03:27:54.960
once the Hesite Wyreens hit the field and these guys are chunky they do quite a

03:27:54.960 --> 03:27:59.280
bit of damage they hit like a truck they are a truck so it makes sense

03:27:59.280 --> 03:28:03.720
that looks coming back in for pig I'd be surprised if Captain Lanz gets more than

03:28:03.720 --> 03:28:07.440
one and getting one relics actually not even that bad but getting more than one

03:28:07.440 --> 03:28:15.760
would be like super illegal okay big with a fervor fervor I don't know if we

03:28:15.760 --> 03:28:20.800
touch those subjects probably not. Ferver does make your monks move faster

03:28:20.800 --> 03:28:24.440
usually from the monastery. It's a technology from the monastery but with

03:28:24.440 --> 03:28:29.360
Bohemians you have a Sif bonus where Ferver and Sanctity affect villagers as

03:28:29.360 --> 03:28:34.200
well. So all of those villagers will move a tiny bit faster so there will be more

03:28:34.200 --> 03:28:39.080
efficient that helps pigs equal quite a lot. As you guys are moving a little faster

03:28:39.080 --> 03:28:43.360
now, I'm probably looking for a third account that is going to do a little bit

03:28:43.360 --> 03:28:48.000
a little bit of a relic pressure, a little bit of boom and you know look to get a nice

03:28:48.000 --> 03:28:54.400
balance approach to this to this arena game. I like the relics. Oh, good snap. Good snap.

03:28:54.400 --> 03:28:59.920
Good snap from Captain Lance. Yeah, yeah. That was a very good awareness on the map.

03:28:59.920 --> 03:29:04.320
From him, he might snipe on second one. Oh my god. If he gets another one, that's disaster for

03:29:04.320 --> 03:29:10.560
Captain, for Pig. Captain Lance is going for it. He should get it. Oh, he dodged the shot. That was

03:29:10.560 --> 03:29:17.600
crazy yes wow no we got to get an instant replay on that one see how he moves

03:29:17.600 --> 03:29:20.320
though he's got to get the heels he's got to get the heels the monk where you

03:29:20.320 --> 03:29:25.240
at mom kill me up wow he makes it away dude that was crazy quick instant replay

03:29:25.240 --> 03:29:28.840
for for the for the chat here hold on let's go back and check it out he goes

03:29:28.840 --> 03:29:32.040
in for the monk he's gonna take some punishment for the swag he takes one hit

03:29:32.040 --> 03:29:38.520
moves to the left oh my dude that was crazy back to live though back to live

03:29:38.520 --> 03:29:43.040
the scouts getting healed. Capmance is here to play guys, that's a good move.

03:29:43.040 --> 03:29:51.320
That's a very very good value on that light cap. With healed back, full and it's HP still

03:29:51.320 --> 03:29:55.640
managed to sneak away. And by the way he's still getting value scouting on the map. If he snaps

03:29:55.640 --> 03:30:01.320
another monk I mean I have no words. By the way these two relic or monk snipes are kind of keeping

03:30:01.320 --> 03:30:05.000
Capmance in the game because now he's getting a nice villager lead and the relics aren't coming in

03:30:05.000 --> 03:30:08.360
so fast so we need to make more monks the relics don't come in quickly so we

03:30:08.360 --> 03:30:12.480
don't get that gold trickle as fast so he's keeping pig kind of further behind

03:30:12.480 --> 03:30:18.720
land for the nice eco collected lead quite nice yeah and on top of that I

03:30:18.720 --> 03:30:25.320
wasn't really fully expecting the three DC boom behind the castle from pig I

03:30:25.320 --> 03:30:32.000
feel like if you are going to play like that keeping a lot of bills on stone on

03:30:32.000 --> 03:30:35.760
on the way up to Castle Age, kind of slowed you down to begin with,

03:30:35.760 --> 03:30:40.040
and then he even kept four villagers on stone for a long way after he put those

03:30:40.040 --> 03:30:44.240
three TCs down. I see that he recently moved them, so

03:30:44.240 --> 03:30:47.360
I guess that's good, but that kind of explains

03:30:47.360 --> 03:30:50.360
you know, Captain Lance's ten

03:30:50.360 --> 03:30:54.360
villains right now. Yeah, by the way, Captain Lance did lose a villager

03:30:54.360 --> 03:30:57.760
right behind this house that was completely avoidable

03:30:57.760 --> 03:31:01.400
if you just listened to me and made the houses at the back. That's okay though, I'm

03:31:01.400 --> 03:31:07.040
Making the Patreon videos for anyone that's listening, not Captain Lance, clearly, houses

03:31:07.040 --> 03:31:10.960
at the back just keeps them away from your base, protects the villagers who want to make

03:31:10.960 --> 03:31:14.520
the house in the front, you can get punished sometimes and you lose the... this is a villager,

03:31:14.520 --> 03:31:19.560
it's a pretty bad thing to happen because it's very avoidable usually, but it's only

03:31:19.560 --> 03:31:21.720
one villas, so it's not the end of the world.

03:31:21.720 --> 03:31:22.720
Uh, Hera?

03:31:22.720 --> 03:31:25.160
Wait, did he get another Monk?

03:31:25.160 --> 03:31:26.160
No way.

03:31:26.160 --> 03:31:27.160
Yep.

03:31:27.160 --> 03:31:28.160
Oh my god.

03:31:28.160 --> 03:31:29.160
He did, like I was dead three kills.

03:31:29.160 --> 03:31:31.360
Oh my god, he got another Monk.

03:31:31.360 --> 03:31:32.360
What was that?

03:31:32.360 --> 03:31:34.360
He sniped him right here.

03:31:34.360 --> 03:31:35.360
Oh my god.

03:31:35.360 --> 03:31:36.360
He sniped another monk.

03:31:36.360 --> 03:31:37.360
Dude, he's got three kills.

03:31:37.360 --> 03:31:38.840
Pig, just kill him, bro.

03:31:38.840 --> 03:31:40.360
Just kill him already.

03:31:40.360 --> 03:31:41.360
Yeah.

03:31:41.360 --> 03:31:47.400
Instead of just chasing that monk, you should be probably chasing the light cavalry.

03:31:47.400 --> 03:31:50.720
It's 6 HP and actually a bit of a fun fact.

03:31:50.720 --> 03:31:53.200
The scout is faster than the light cavalry.

03:31:53.200 --> 03:31:56.360
The light cavalry gets health delivery.

03:31:56.360 --> 03:31:57.360
Okay.

03:31:57.360 --> 03:31:59.240
We're defending the monk right now.

03:31:59.240 --> 03:32:06.920
a fair approach for pink but you gotta watch out no way oh my god this guy's

03:32:06.920 --> 03:32:12.280
on follow one two hits oh my god entity

03:32:12.440 --> 03:32:15.400
are you ahead of me I think you might be ahead of me actually yeah I think you

03:32:15.400 --> 03:32:20.720
are oh he gets another one wow oh my god I just caught up I just thought yeah I

03:32:20.720 --> 03:32:24.520
think you went back and then you probably didn't fully catch up oh my god

03:32:24.520 --> 03:32:30.360
You got a fourth monk that's insane and he's still out. We have to kill him. We have to kill him

03:32:30.880 --> 03:32:32.400
Dude, please

03:32:32.400 --> 03:32:35.280
And I he's dead. He's dead. He's dead. Oh my god

03:32:35.360 --> 03:32:41.080
So oh sevens in the chat like that scout goes down a freaking hero that like have killed four monks

03:32:41.080 --> 03:32:44.360
And you have another one if this guy's of the same quality pig has no chance

03:32:44.840 --> 03:32:47.640
Pig has no chance if this guy's of the same quality

03:32:47.640 --> 03:32:50.280
Let's see. He's gonna take some punishment from the site wagon

03:32:50.280 --> 03:32:54.280
He's going straight out. Great presence of mind from Lance by the way.

03:32:54.280 --> 03:32:58.560
Did his weak sending out like have directly towards those relics and he can get another

03:32:58.560 --> 03:33:00.280
snipe onto those monks.

03:33:00.280 --> 03:33:05.280
He is going to. Like he's going to kill the scout. Go go go go go.

03:33:05.280 --> 03:33:07.280
He's moving. He's going.

03:33:07.280 --> 03:33:11.280
Oh wrong way wrong way. Oh pig that's so smart though. Pig switched it up.

03:33:11.280 --> 03:33:14.280
Think about it chat. Pig switched it up.

03:33:14.280 --> 03:33:17.280
Instead of going here he went there.

03:33:17.280 --> 03:33:22.160
Okay, let's go food. So things got some smarts as well. That's good. That's good

03:33:23.040 --> 03:33:30.240
The thing is for the viewers is hearing. Oh that like have killed four monks, whatever

03:33:30.400 --> 03:33:36.260
It's for units. What is that a monk costs a hundred gold. So that's 400 gold down the drain

03:33:36.760 --> 03:33:42.200
That's unlike have cost 80 food right like 80 food for 400 gold crazy exactly

03:33:42.720 --> 03:33:46.480
And on top of that you force your opponent to make more monks the relics with the lead

03:33:46.480 --> 03:33:53.360
The psychological factor there's so much at play here, but by the way pig somehow gets the faster in I don't know what happened to the

03:33:53.360 --> 03:33:57.960
Lance economy, but we have a lot of idle TC like seven minutes out of TC. He's lost his villager lead

03:33:58.680 --> 03:34:02.320
He's got a lot of resources. We need the imp click but he's missing the second building

03:34:03.120 --> 03:34:05.120
Lance in my opinion

03:34:05.400 --> 03:34:11.160
Despite getting good trades without like have might have might have actually screwed up his own boom trying to micro that so

03:34:11.840 --> 03:34:13.840
Yeah, his imp is really delayed now

03:34:13.840 --> 03:34:19.560
Well, that's a factor that we were talking about yesterday.

03:34:19.560 --> 03:34:21.280
Look at the resources collected.

03:34:21.280 --> 03:34:24.280
Capital Lens right now is ahead.

03:34:24.280 --> 03:34:29.760
One could ask, then how is big ahead in terms of end timing?

03:34:29.760 --> 03:34:31.880
Well, look at Capital Lens resources.

03:34:31.880 --> 03:34:36.960
He almost has the exact same amount of resources to click up to the next stage one more time.

03:34:36.960 --> 03:34:39.560
They're just slightly unbalanced.

03:34:39.560 --> 03:34:43.600
The timing in terms of imperial age is extremely crucial.

03:34:43.600 --> 03:34:47.840
What I would like from Pig to not forget right now is that, like we said at the beginning

03:34:47.840 --> 03:34:49.760
of the match, he gets chemistry.

03:34:49.760 --> 03:34:50.760
He never forgets.

03:34:50.760 --> 03:34:52.000
There it is.

03:34:52.000 --> 03:34:54.360
The universe is going up.

03:34:54.360 --> 03:34:56.800
I think he's going to click it immediately.

03:34:56.800 --> 03:34:58.680
He's going to have just...

03:34:58.680 --> 03:35:00.480
There it is.

03:35:00.480 --> 03:35:02.120
Yeah, that's pretty good.

03:35:02.120 --> 03:35:05.000
A little late, but it's overall fine.

03:35:05.000 --> 03:35:07.680
By the way, what we're talking about here is that Bohemians can make chemistry in cast

03:35:07.680 --> 03:35:08.680
lich.

03:35:08.680 --> 03:35:11.440
If you make that in cast lich, it's a very long upgrade.

03:35:11.440 --> 03:35:14.700
And if you wait till imp like normal civs and you get it after imp you need to wait another

03:35:14.700 --> 03:35:16.720
like 2 minutes to make gunpowder.

03:35:16.720 --> 03:35:20.480
Getting it in castleage, preparing it for imp, means that as soon as he gets to imp,

03:35:20.480 --> 03:35:22.800
boom gunpowder run away.

03:35:22.800 --> 03:35:30.720
Definitely, that's what's so strong about the Turks fast imp that we were talking again

03:35:30.720 --> 03:35:34.640
in the beginning of the matchup because when you're going for that you get chemistry for

03:35:34.640 --> 03:35:39.920
free so you instantly unlock access to gunpowder.

03:35:39.920 --> 03:35:44.140
only being able to keep up with that because of their timing because they're

03:35:44.140 --> 03:35:49.580
able to research chemistry on the way up okay like you said it's a bit late 20

03:35:49.580 --> 03:35:54.420
seconds behind still fine he's still gonna have bomber cannons out

03:35:54.420 --> 03:35:59.380
Lume coming in? Slightly. Thank God. Lume coming in, very important. I'm just happy to see you man.

03:35:59.380 --> 03:36:03.220
I'm just put the smile on my face what can I say like we just get the Lume and

03:36:03.220 --> 03:36:06.860
off the way by nothing but here we go chemistry's in it's gonna be gunpowder

03:36:06.860 --> 03:36:11.340
right away. Henkin in here is the gunpowder of choice for Mr. Pig, and he's also going to go

03:36:11.340 --> 03:36:15.580
for the bombards in the back. Very expensive composition, but of course very powerful. He

03:36:15.580 --> 03:36:20.380
also prepares some pikemen due to countering the Turk Hussar. You need some of those pikemen,

03:36:20.380 --> 03:36:24.460
which are very, very good awareness there for Pig to just prepare both of those units one shot.

03:36:24.460 --> 03:36:29.100
His opponent Kepmelans, what's the composition? It's going to be Cavarcher plus Hussar, so less

03:36:29.100 --> 03:36:34.220
gunpowder for him, but he might also go for some bombards using the Turk free chemistry.

03:36:34.220 --> 03:36:40.460
Now, here's the thing. What do you think about the Cabrature-Hassar combo into the Bohemians comp?

03:36:40.460 --> 03:36:45.340
I feel like it's okay, since they're so tanky. But it comes down to the micro, I feel like.

03:36:47.580 --> 03:36:55.260
Yeah, I mean, I don't know if I like the blind hand cannon opening here from Pig.

03:36:55.260 --> 03:37:03.780
turks going to heavy CA plus stars in the late game paired up with artillery

03:37:03.780 --> 03:37:09.420
bomber cannons that's probably their best composition we've seen sing being

03:37:09.420 --> 03:37:15.980
very successful with it with the strats yeah bohemians have great helps I feel

03:37:15.980 --> 03:37:21.900
like I wouldn't mind seeing them go into something like halved and scurms instead

03:37:21.900 --> 03:37:28.860
or at least switching after seeing the CA because the CA are going to be a big issue right now.

03:37:29.500 --> 03:37:34.940
Yeah, let's see what happens here. Lantha's two relics, by the way, which I consider to be kind

03:37:34.940 --> 03:37:40.220
of illegal, I think maximum one, so Lantha had a great early game considering everything that

03:37:40.220 --> 03:37:45.260
happened and considering how he was a bit behind for the relic confession, but he gets two in the

03:37:45.260 --> 03:37:49.900
end so it's not too bad relics or not a huge factor. Wagonbrook tactics come in that's going

03:37:49.900 --> 03:37:53.940
to make the gunpowder move faster for Pig. Pig also starts with the bomb words behind

03:37:53.940 --> 03:37:57.260
the walls. Normally this castle is a bit too far forward by the way. Normally you want

03:37:57.260 --> 03:38:00.700
to make it further back, so if your opponent wants to siege you he's got to leave his walls.

03:38:00.700 --> 03:38:05.020
So actually a little bit of a misplay there with that castle positioning. Now Lance investing

03:38:05.020 --> 03:38:09.700
a lot of repairs into that, but he's got his own bomb words. Got to watch out now. Pig,

03:38:09.700 --> 03:38:10.700
you got to move.

03:38:10.700 --> 03:38:16.780
Yeah, that's also his only castle, so that's the castle that's right now not tacking

03:38:16.780 --> 03:38:20.940
in the description, not making traps because he needs to get the unique technology that

03:38:20.940 --> 03:38:22.180
affects his CA.

03:38:22.180 --> 03:38:27.420
We talked about that comp as being very powerful but it takes a while to upgrade and it's expensive

03:38:27.420 --> 03:38:28.420
to upgrade.

03:38:28.420 --> 03:38:29.420
He's still missing.

03:38:29.420 --> 03:38:31.420
That was the last type.

03:38:31.420 --> 03:38:32.420
Yeah.

03:38:32.420 --> 03:38:35.460
He's still missing a lot of upgrades, yeah?

03:38:35.460 --> 03:38:36.460
Exactly, yeah.

03:38:36.460 --> 03:38:39.260
All the armors at the last attack.

03:38:39.260 --> 03:38:41.860
No help, though, for Pig.

03:38:41.860 --> 03:38:43.780
Neither player is ready to fight right now, by the way.

03:38:43.780 --> 03:38:48.180
players ready to fight when the castle goes down, which makes it interesting, right? Like, will

03:38:48.180 --> 03:38:51.620
one of them pull the trigger? Both of them are thinking, hold on, hold on, I gotta wait for my

03:38:51.620 --> 03:38:55.940
upgrades, but since both are thinking that, it's like neither player really wants to engage, so

03:38:55.940 --> 03:39:00.260
we're gonna see a disengage here. Both players just want to get their fully upgraded compositions

03:39:00.260 --> 03:39:05.060
going. I see actually that Pig is mixing in some of his sight wagons, not skirmishers for the

03:39:05.060 --> 03:39:09.780
backline. I don't mind it. I actually agree with you, Daniela, I think halberskirm is a fantastic

03:39:09.780 --> 03:39:13.780
a combo when it comes to protecting your hoof knees that you get to save a lot of gold for

03:39:13.780 --> 03:39:17.540
the bomber cannons but I don't mind the Hussay Wines I think they're a decent addition to

03:39:17.540 --> 03:39:18.540
the army as well.

03:39:18.540 --> 03:39:21.380
Nice little tank there, nice little front line you know.

03:39:21.380 --> 03:39:26.300
Exactly, I would like to see them as a front line though especially because the units that

03:39:26.300 --> 03:39:29.020
are behind them take less damage.

03:39:29.020 --> 03:39:32.620
Yeah, that's a very good front line.

03:39:32.620 --> 03:39:36.460
Asked a little tank and shield for your units, oh Hempkin near, you don't want to fight this

03:39:36.460 --> 03:39:40.520
into the heavy cab archers heavy cab archers with a lot of mobility is a great pick up

03:39:40.520 --> 03:39:41.520
for Lance.

03:39:41.520 --> 03:39:45.260
He's going to punish Pig for going out too early and Pig was a little out of positions

03:39:45.260 --> 03:39:50.500
army but Pig's got some firing back he's got some empty near the Habsburg force this

03:39:50.500 --> 03:39:55.660
the cab archers back and not let them you know stand and trade with the guns overall

03:39:55.660 --> 03:40:01.660
what I would say what I was extremely concerned there for a second was that Pig had was that

03:40:01.660 --> 03:40:07.840
five bombard cannons all exposed away from his main military just a couple of

03:40:07.840 --> 03:40:11.600
tiles away from that massive Khasar that Lance kind of forgot about them for a

03:40:11.600 --> 03:40:15.120
second. Yeah artillery coming in by the way that's going to give Turk bombard

03:40:15.120 --> 03:40:20.160
and bombard towers plus two range. So I really want to talk about a bunch of

03:40:20.160 --> 03:40:22.800
things here but the main thing I have to understand here is that the

03:40:22.800 --> 03:40:26.520
bombard from the Bohemians, once this upgrade comes into Huffanies, these guys

03:40:26.520 --> 03:40:31.120
are way better than Turk bombard in every way possible except range. Turks

03:40:31.120 --> 03:40:35.120
have one extra range once the artillery attack comes in, so keep that in mind, the Turk player

03:40:35.120 --> 03:40:39.400
has to play at a range to snipe the bombards, and he has to play a hit and run comp, the

03:40:39.400 --> 03:40:43.400
bohemian comp has more power, great attack round there with the cannons, if the skill

03:40:43.400 --> 03:40:52.600
matchup lets see what happens.

03:40:52.600 --> 03:40:53.600
Nice flank.

03:40:53.600 --> 03:41:00.560
I don't really mind Pig's engagement so far, but all of a sudden, Captain Lance is just

03:41:00.560 --> 03:41:08.240
ready to play. There's a massive CA with the bomber cannons behind all of that and I just

03:41:08.240 --> 03:41:14.480
don't see, well, Hussar is taking engagements against the hells, they found their death,

03:41:14.480 --> 03:41:20.000
but I just don't see big answering right now to that massive heavy CA.

03:41:20.000 --> 03:41:24.000
Yeah, like the CA are scary, Hussar not so much, like you still need to make them because

03:41:24.000 --> 03:41:27.680
they're kind of cheap, no gold cost, you can snipe some of those bombards,

03:41:27.680 --> 03:41:32.000
But the how about here, especially with the behemoths that deal extra bonus damage against Cavalry,

03:41:32.000 --> 03:41:37.120
those guys destroy Hussar, so CA is the main unit here, and really the only unit that can fight.

03:41:42.320 --> 03:41:47.600
Yeah, I mean, they're going to get good value on the CA as well, if they kind of get to them.

03:41:47.600 --> 03:41:55.200
However, Captain Lance is just hitting and running, going back to the castle. He is playing patient,

03:41:55.200 --> 03:42:03.520
there's no reason to rush this but I fear that the production is kind of lacking right now a

03:42:03.520 --> 03:42:14.720
tiny bit and big skirm switch might be just in time here. Yeah Halbs look at that frontline Halb

03:42:14.720 --> 03:42:18.720
just patrol them in they're very cheap they don't cost gold they force the cabbages back

03:42:19.680 --> 03:42:23.280
and if they do get you know if you do kind of close the gap they do massive damage to

03:42:23.280 --> 03:42:27.200
cavalry, so those habidiers even kind of countering or soft countering let's say,

03:42:27.200 --> 03:42:31.680
those heavy cab archers. If you need to have to be kept safe though, if one of them are exposed,

03:42:31.680 --> 03:42:36.320
one of two of them will get sniped. So far it's a pretty close game, but I would say Pegas taking

03:42:36.320 --> 03:42:40.080
the slightly better engagements, and I think he's got better management of his gold by the way,

03:42:40.080 --> 03:42:42.480
despite Captain Lance having more gold in the bank currently.

03:42:45.440 --> 03:42:50.160
That's a Russy Castle. That's a Russy Castle and the Firstville already started to build.

03:42:50.160 --> 03:42:52.800
Are there any bomber cannons around? No.

03:42:54.000 --> 03:43:00.080
Yeah, no sanctity on the villagers either, so they're regular, kind of squishy villagers, but they do move a little faster.

03:43:02.080 --> 03:43:08.960
Oh man, I love this matchup. I was so excited to see this matchup, because you're just gonna see, you know, top two end competitions fighting back and forth.

03:43:09.280 --> 03:43:15.760
Five whoofnits, say, though, from Pig, those guys are quite solid, very good bombers in the back line.

03:43:15.760 --> 03:43:25.000
They do so much damage also, not really sure about just throwing the hentai near their

03:43:25.000 --> 03:43:31.760
expensive units but oh my god they'll get shot off the CA.

03:43:31.760 --> 03:43:35.360
That was insane, 5 CA just dropped, how many kills do these bombards have?

03:43:35.360 --> 03:43:40.720
29 kills from just these 5 bombards in the backlight, I'm telling you they are so solid

03:43:40.720 --> 03:43:43.640
but one of them does get sniped, remember Turkish bombards?

03:43:43.640 --> 03:43:47.960
Bombard to have that extra range and that cast is being denied. Dude, this is such a messy game

03:43:47.960 --> 03:43:53.380
Cap Lens is still playing well cast on the left side is trying to secure some stone a lot of resources in the center a lot of

03:43:53.380 --> 03:43:56.360
Minerals to fight over this is such an intense game

03:43:59.040 --> 03:44:01.520
Where are the scrims where the scrims I think?

03:44:03.840 --> 03:44:05.840
Okay, they're forward

03:44:06.480 --> 03:44:08.480
Hey, they showed up

03:44:08.480 --> 03:44:16.220
I expected that fight to go heavily in Captain Lance's favor. He lost a lot of this CA.

03:44:16.220 --> 03:44:19.520
He only has 14 on the field right now, 20 more in the queue.

03:44:19.520 --> 03:44:23.620
But now suddenly, all of his production is being pushed back here.

03:44:23.620 --> 03:44:27.780
Yeah, forward production is great when you're the one pushing, but when you're being pushed,

03:44:27.780 --> 03:44:33.080
you're going to have to replace all of those buildings.

03:44:33.080 --> 03:44:38.680
Castle that just finished, but now suddenly there's nine who've made sound the field

03:44:40.600 --> 03:44:45.080
Those at this point those are just starting to wash out buildings and by the way

03:44:45.520 --> 03:44:49.800
You know coming at it a little bit of a surprise, but I did one coaching session with pig

03:44:49.800 --> 03:44:52.960
I know it was not grubby, but I did one coaching session with him

03:44:52.960 --> 03:44:57.720
And we talked about what he means and we talked about keeping your cannon safe in the back line

03:44:57.720 --> 03:45:00.120
and also just spamming the Halvis forward.

03:45:00.120 --> 03:45:04.720
I'm very, very pleasantly surprised that in just a couple weeks he's made the adaptation.

03:45:04.720 --> 03:45:08.120
He's very aggressive with the Halvis, which is exactly what you want to have.

03:45:08.120 --> 03:45:10.720
Send the Halvis and flood them in, keep the cannons safe,

03:45:10.720 --> 03:45:12.520
and let the cannons hit the castles.

03:45:12.520 --> 03:45:15.520
He's playing a great game of Age of Empire 2 right now.

03:45:15.520 --> 03:45:17.520
But, Captain Lance is firing back.

03:45:17.520 --> 03:45:19.520
He's got the cannons himself.

03:45:19.520 --> 03:45:21.520
He's taking out the Hussite wagons.

03:45:21.520 --> 03:45:23.520
Goad micro gets out of the way there.

03:45:23.520 --> 03:45:25.720
Beautiful stuff. This is what Captain Lance sees.

03:45:25.720 --> 03:45:34.520
He's getting a little close to the castle, he one shot it, that's insane.

03:45:34.520 --> 03:45:39.800
The remaining bomber cannons, the Hufnitsa, only 19 kills of them but they dealt over

03:45:39.800 --> 03:45:42.320
12,000 damage already.

03:45:42.320 --> 03:45:46.400
Oh man, that's a lot of damage.

03:45:46.400 --> 03:45:50.400
Oh good shot stuff from both players, good shots from both players, the cannon.

03:45:50.400 --> 03:45:54.080
By the way, there's cannon fights back and forth while there's army fighting.

03:45:54.080 --> 03:45:58.960
pro AWG play and we're seeing it in this tournament. It's so good. Like this is such a high level match

03:45:58.960 --> 03:46:03.840
to meta civilizations as well. Pig slightly better trade so I have to say he's losing

03:46:03.840 --> 03:46:08.880
more halberd years. Like over time I really feel like Captain Lance. He's the guy that needs gold

03:46:08.880 --> 03:46:13.840
more but good snipes though. He steps to three, who feeds and goes back with the Cavaliers.

03:46:13.840 --> 03:46:18.400
What a punish from Captain Lance. The score is really close. This game is still anyone's to grab.

03:46:19.200 --> 03:46:22.880
It's so close. That was really really good.

03:46:22.880 --> 03:46:27.600
Will that castle be almost denied by a couple of random how-the-beers?

03:46:27.600 --> 03:46:28.640
Perhaps?

03:46:28.640 --> 03:46:29.760
On the left side?

03:46:29.760 --> 03:46:30.640
No, I think I got it.

03:46:30.640 --> 03:46:31.680
It goes up.

03:46:31.680 --> 03:46:32.080
That's good.

03:46:34.080 --> 03:46:38.720
I would like to see a couple more scrims.

03:46:38.720 --> 03:46:39.840
You are right.

03:46:39.840 --> 03:46:47.760
Here comes Big with another castle on Captain Lance's new rebuild production.

03:46:48.560 --> 03:46:52.160
He's going to have to just replace once again.

03:46:52.160 --> 03:46:55.520
Tassel goes down. That Tassel is kind of on the walls as well.

03:46:55.520 --> 03:47:00.000
Pig could be closing in on the wind right now. Captain Lance needs more time.

03:47:00.000 --> 03:47:03.680
No Pig has no Ballistics. Oh my god that's terrible. The scrims will not hit moving targets.

03:47:03.680 --> 03:47:08.560
That's probably why these Cameragers are so hard to kill. By the way a lot of those Cameragers are weak.

03:47:08.560 --> 03:47:12.320
Yeah, no Ballistics on Tassel either. It's true.

03:47:13.600 --> 03:47:16.400
I like that he's just walking forward like zombies though with his units. Like his

03:47:16.400 --> 03:47:20.080
house is in zombies running in. Captain Lance missing Attacker with an Esasaur,

03:47:20.080 --> 03:47:24.580
But he's not even making many hasar right now. I mean, he's making it. He doesn't have many on the field.

03:47:26.380 --> 03:47:28.580
Splitting them is not a great idea right now.

03:47:28.580 --> 03:47:35.380
Splitting them and sending small groups of Kevarchists, I understand you probably just want to snipe a couple of Nica,

03:47:35.380 --> 03:47:39.380
but they're just going to melt to a small group of skirms.

03:47:39.380 --> 03:47:39.880
Yeah.

03:47:40.580 --> 03:47:43.380
By the way, the more skirms you have in the field, the more we need hasars.

03:47:44.080 --> 03:47:45.980
But we have to keep the hasars away from the halbs.

03:47:45.980 --> 03:47:52.980
So in pro games, the Hussars will run in, bait the Habs forward, run back, let the Cabarches hit the Habs, and then go back in again.

03:47:52.980 --> 03:47:58.980
It's a very hard movement to do, but if done correctly, it's very very powerful.

03:47:58.980 --> 03:48:03.980
A couple of Bombers from Lance, putting on some decent backland shots,

03:48:03.980 --> 03:48:08.980
but I have to say Pig has had great control of his Bombers for the most part of this game.

03:48:08.980 --> 03:48:17.860
I feel like Captain Lance is struggling to push against all of that force and I feel like in

03:48:17.860 --> 03:48:26.260
the pro games this is where you start seeing the Turks bomber towers like the extra two range

03:48:26.260 --> 03:48:32.860
that comes from the artillery from their unique technology is very painful for all the units to

03:48:32.860 --> 03:48:37.460
deal with yeah actually Turks bomber towers are better than castles look at this castle they just

03:48:37.460 --> 03:48:41.120
completely got destroyed but Katmans looking to go in here oh my god oh my

03:48:41.120 --> 03:48:45.640
god he's taking some huge hits he's with all of the Cavaliers who dare to be

03:48:45.640 --> 03:48:49.800
greedy going for the bomber cannon snipes and he lost all of his Cavaliers

03:48:49.800 --> 03:48:53.840
there he ran past the hubs past the shots no more Cavaliers they're all

03:48:53.840 --> 03:48:59.280
cleared up damn pig has done it he's taking out Captain Lance on arena pig is

03:48:59.280 --> 03:49:03.040
proven to be the best arena player with the Bohemians or maybe it's a bit of

03:49:03.040 --> 03:49:06.360
rock-paper-scissors because Grubby didn't beat his Bohemians yesterday with the

03:49:06.360 --> 03:49:13.360
So, dude, this tournament is really shaping up a big fantastic, fantastic push there, 180 pop to 140.

03:49:13.360 --> 03:49:17.360
And now there's no more Cavaliers, there's no more gold, we're only on what, two relics?

03:49:17.360 --> 03:49:22.360
Two relics is not enough to sustain a new army of Cavaliers, it'll take a long time at the very least.

03:49:24.360 --> 03:49:30.360
Oh my god, I don't want to sound too biased here, but I'm definitely, I think after yesterday's set against Robbie,

03:49:30.360 --> 03:49:35.040
against Grovi, he played fantastic and it's so good to see him bounce back in

03:49:35.040 --> 03:49:39.840
this game as well where I thought that Turks will definitely have a better

03:49:39.840 --> 03:49:45.560
power spike with their early composition but he was patient, he made the right

03:49:45.560 --> 03:49:50.760
transition at the right time and I don't know how Captain Lance will plan on

03:49:50.760 --> 03:49:56.760
pushing with 20 military units, 78 that pick has now the field 200 population

03:49:56.760 --> 03:49:59.400
and definitely the entire map control right now.

03:49:59.400 --> 03:50:01.080
Yeah, I can't believe we're missing ballistics.

03:50:01.080 --> 03:50:03.640
Like, that's such a crucial upgrade for the skirmishers.

03:50:03.640 --> 03:50:05.160
Like, we really need to pick up ballistics,

03:50:05.160 --> 03:50:07.320
but even without it, we're still kind of cooking.

03:50:07.320 --> 03:50:09.680
Dude, those halberds just have no counter.

03:50:09.680 --> 03:50:11.200
Turks need gold to play.

03:50:11.200 --> 03:50:12.720
They don't have elite skirmishers.

03:50:12.720 --> 03:50:14.160
They don't even have pikemen.

03:50:14.160 --> 03:50:16.360
So your own halbs, your own skirmes,

03:50:16.360 --> 03:50:19.360
none of these are a possibility for the Turk player.

03:50:19.360 --> 03:50:21.680
That's why Turks rely so heavily on gold.

03:50:21.680 --> 03:50:24.840
That's why we criticized Lance not going for those relics.

03:50:24.840 --> 03:50:28.560
he snagged you i would say kind of luckily or you know good play from him

03:50:28.560 --> 03:50:32.760
but still you know fortune to grab to despite no commitment to them

03:50:32.760 --> 03:50:35.520
but only to relax is not enough and now they're out of the monastery

03:50:35.520 --> 03:50:38.440
gg is called ladies and gentlemen give it up for pig

03:50:38.440 --> 03:50:41.500
who has taken down catmelance on arena

03:50:41.500 --> 03:50:44.680
for think the first time in this event he's been undefeated

03:50:44.680 --> 03:50:45.580
and pig

03:50:45.580 --> 03:50:47.840
has uh... has just caught his number a little bit

03:50:47.840 --> 03:50:51.240
well played well played big

03:50:51.240 --> 03:50:54.440
it will be interesting to see here because

03:50:54.440 --> 03:50:59.320
We were talking at the beginning of this matchup that if every one of them are just going to

03:51:01.320 --> 03:51:06.440
win quote-unquote their home maps, if Captain Lance is going to win all the renas and Peggy is going to

03:51:06.440 --> 03:51:12.120
win all the rabies, it's all going to come down to the first match, which Captain Lance had an

03:51:12.120 --> 03:51:20.360
advantage being fortress. So Peggy had to win at least one arena. Maybe this was it?

03:51:20.360 --> 03:51:22.520
Now, the situation's flipped.

03:51:22.520 --> 03:51:26.160
Now, Captain Lance has to win at least one Arabia,

03:51:26.160 --> 03:51:30.040
and he has to prove that he is better on Arena compared to Pig,

03:51:30.040 --> 03:51:33.200
because right now he's lost at one and only Arena that he played.

03:51:33.200 --> 03:51:35.200
So Captain Lance is in kind of a bad position right now.

03:51:35.200 --> 03:51:36.560
It's his home map next.

03:51:36.560 --> 03:51:39.880
You can decide Arena or if he's confident,

03:51:39.880 --> 03:51:41.560
he can actually just take them back to Arabia.

03:51:41.560 --> 03:51:42.240
We don't know.

03:51:42.240 --> 03:51:43.640
He's won the Redis at Fortress.

03:51:43.640 --> 03:51:45.600
He's lost both Arabia and Arena,

03:51:45.600 --> 03:51:47.120
which could feel pretty bad for him.

03:51:47.120 --> 03:51:48.640
Let's see what Captain Lance can cook up.

03:51:48.640 --> 03:51:51.760
He's of course representing the Path of Exile community.

03:51:51.760 --> 03:51:53.720
And guys, he's done you very proud,

03:51:53.720 --> 03:51:55.880
regardless of who wins and loses this game.

03:51:55.880 --> 03:51:57.680
Katmance has done the Path of Exile community,

03:51:57.680 --> 03:51:59.040
very, very proud.

03:51:59.040 --> 03:52:01.440
I think the meme you guys have is just a login.

03:52:01.440 --> 03:52:03.560
I don't understand it, but everyone stamps it.

03:52:03.560 --> 03:52:05.240
So let's get a login in the chat.

03:52:05.240 --> 03:52:07.560
Path of Exile, I love the community.

03:52:07.560 --> 03:52:09.800
I love what Katmance has brought to the table.

03:52:09.800 --> 03:52:11.880
Ha ha ha ha ha.

03:52:11.880 --> 03:52:12.840
Well, definitely.

03:52:12.840 --> 03:52:16.440
I mean, the winner is just going to have a clean path

03:52:16.440 --> 03:52:18.560
to the grand finale.

03:52:18.560 --> 03:52:20.920
but the loser still has a chance.

03:52:20.920 --> 03:52:22.840
It's just going to be a tiny bit tougher.

03:52:22.840 --> 03:52:26.160
Yeah, like showing the bracket here, again, it's 2-1 pig now.

03:52:26.160 --> 03:52:28.920
Winner of this goes to Grand Finals, as Danela just said.

03:52:28.920 --> 03:52:31.520
Loser drops to the loser bracket final,

03:52:31.520 --> 03:52:34.560
and he's going to be facing the winner of Grubby Thermal.

03:52:34.560 --> 03:52:37.600
The problem is, facing the winner of Grubby Thermal

03:52:37.600 --> 03:52:40.320
is a really risky position to be in.

03:52:40.320 --> 03:52:43.080
You'd like to delay that until at least the Grand Finals.

03:52:43.080 --> 03:52:46.800
So whoever wins the set has a really, really nice advantage.

03:52:46.800 --> 03:52:49.280
And yeah, we're seeing the top four.

03:52:49.280 --> 03:52:50.800
We're seeing the four captains and the top four

03:52:50.800 --> 03:52:52.720
of the events going at it here.

03:52:52.720 --> 03:52:55.840
And Pig has certainly proved himself to be the best so far,

03:52:55.840 --> 03:52:57.400
but Catalan is still in it.

03:52:57.400 --> 03:52:58.240
It's one to two.

03:52:58.240 --> 03:53:00.720
I don't want to call him out too early.

03:53:00.720 --> 03:53:01.880
And it's going to be his home map next.

03:53:01.880 --> 03:53:03.120
Let's see if he can bounce back.

03:53:03.120 --> 03:53:04.560
Pleasure taking a little bit of a break.

03:53:04.560 --> 03:53:07.440
I'll do take this time to shout out to the viewers.

03:53:07.440 --> 03:53:09.560
Thank you so much for everyone watching at home.

03:53:09.560 --> 03:53:11.440
5,000 plus on YouTube, 11,000,

03:53:11.440 --> 03:53:13.280
I think even 12,000 plus on Twitch.

03:53:13.280 --> 03:53:16.160
So huge, huge thank you to the viewers tuning in

03:53:16.160 --> 03:53:19.320
to this fine Sunday watching some Age of Empires too.

03:53:19.320 --> 03:53:21.320
Of course, the day has only just begun.

03:53:21.320 --> 03:53:25.120
This is like the first real set of the final day of day four

03:53:25.120 --> 03:53:30.120
and it's a pig and Mr. Lance going the distance so far.

03:53:32.280 --> 03:53:33.640
You've been absolutely killing it

03:53:33.640 --> 03:53:35.600
with the viewership for the event.

03:53:38.240 --> 03:53:39.200
It's super nice to see it.

03:53:39.200 --> 03:53:40.040
I'm happy to see it.

03:53:40.040 --> 03:53:40.880
I'm happy for you.

03:53:40.880 --> 03:53:41.720
You deserved it.

03:53:41.720 --> 03:53:44.200
You put together this amazing event

03:53:44.200 --> 03:53:48.000
And the community benefits on a larger scale

03:53:48.000 --> 03:53:50.520
from all of these new eyes on AOE on the game,

03:53:50.520 --> 03:53:55.120
on our scene, it just has been a really, really nice event.

03:53:55.120 --> 03:53:56.720
I appreciate that, seriously.

03:53:56.720 --> 03:53:58.960
I do appreciate that, Daniela.

03:53:58.960 --> 03:54:02.840
And I hope that we can make this a regular thing.

03:54:02.840 --> 03:54:04.640
Thank you, Mr. Pizza Face for the three months.

03:54:04.640 --> 03:54:06.640
You see Pig just hydrating coming back.

03:54:06.640 --> 03:54:08.720
Camelon's still taking some time.

03:54:08.720 --> 03:54:10.440
Mean Anomaly, instead of Prime for 10 months.

03:54:10.440 --> 03:54:11.960
We'll play some ads right now, of course.

03:54:11.960 --> 03:54:13.960
You guys are begging for the ads rightfully so.

03:54:13.960 --> 03:54:17.200
play the ads right now so that it don't appear during the game hopefully three

03:54:17.200 --> 03:54:22.080
minutes of ads going out. People want to see a second edition of this next year.

03:54:22.080 --> 03:54:27.680
We do have a sub goal that we're close to doing. What are we at right now? We're at

03:54:27.680 --> 03:54:33.520
8 to 30 out of 9k. We're close. We need something like you know 770 for my math

03:54:33.520 --> 03:54:36.960
is correct in terms of subs for the rest of the day. If we do hit that, it's a

03:54:36.960 --> 03:54:41.680
guaranteed second edition. If not, I have to think about it. I'm not sure. I'd love to

03:54:41.680 --> 03:54:46.120
think about it. I will try my best, of course. I stopped using Amazon Prime as free. Good

03:54:46.120 --> 03:54:51.160
job, Kyle, bro. That's fantastic. That is absolutely fantastic. Oh my God. Oh my goodness,

03:54:51.160 --> 03:54:56.000
Daniela! With the five gifts at the co-caster, I knew I brought you in for a reason. Daniela

03:54:56.000 --> 03:54:57.000
with the five gifts.

03:54:57.000 --> 03:55:02.400
Oh, wait a second. This was supposed to be after the after the get. Oh, I'm so sorry.

03:55:02.400 --> 03:55:07.600
Oh, no, it's perfect. No, no, no, no. Don't apologize for giving subs. Hang on now. Dude,

03:55:07.600 --> 03:55:14.400
Dude, you can give it to them whenever you want. There's no apologizing going on here unknown tactics instead of five gifted a few prime steps coming in as well

03:55:14.400 --> 03:55:17.520
Thank you guys. I really really appreciate that. Thank you

03:55:18.400 --> 03:55:22.400
Thank you for having me. I've been having a blast with this tournament and

03:55:23.480 --> 03:55:27.040
Casting it just being a part of it. It's been really fun

03:55:28.360 --> 03:55:32.560
Yeah, you're telling me you did a cast with Yamato as well like Yamato went to the LSD

03:55:33.080 --> 03:55:35.080
They casted one game

03:55:37.600 --> 03:55:39.600
It's so funny.

03:55:39.600 --> 03:55:41.600
It was really, really funny.

03:55:41.600 --> 03:55:45.600
Stormy, Mr. Stormy, Stormy should be instead of 5 gifted.

03:55:45.600 --> 03:55:47.600
We got more primes than I can count.

03:55:47.600 --> 03:55:49.600
Prime subs keep flying in, guys. Prime subs are fantastic.

03:55:49.600 --> 03:55:51.600
We're taking money from Jeff Bezos' pocket,

03:55:51.600 --> 03:55:53.600
preventing him from going to space,

03:55:53.600 --> 03:55:55.600
and we're giving it to me, a humble streamer,

03:55:55.600 --> 03:55:57.600
a hometown streamer. This is good. This is a good play.

03:55:57.600 --> 03:55:59.600
This is with the 5 gifted as well.

03:55:59.600 --> 03:56:01.600
Thank you, bro. Appreciate that.

03:56:01.600 --> 03:56:03.600
Bidder, thank you for the tier one. Welcome.

03:56:03.600 --> 03:56:05.600
The players are just waiting here, waiting for them to get started.

03:56:05.600 --> 03:56:10.800
started. Sean on a we big man Sean with a 10 gifted. Thank you so much, brother.

03:56:11.520 --> 03:56:16.440
Yeah, exactly. Like, guys, you saw the sub goal in order to make it happen. We

03:56:16.440 --> 03:56:21.600
have to make it happen. So it has been such a great event. We definitely have

03:56:21.600 --> 03:56:25.400
to have at least another edition. The King's Gauntlet number two. Do I

03:56:25.400 --> 03:56:28.880
change the name? Or do I do I go number two on King's Gauntlet? Do we just

03:56:28.880 --> 03:56:29.320
stick with it?

03:56:29.320 --> 03:56:32.640
Yeah, stick with it. At this point. Yeah.

03:56:32.640 --> 03:56:40.400
Yeah, it's the brands the Kings gauntlets. I think next time every game registered honestly. I use in the finals stepping King's left and right

03:56:44.000 --> 03:56:45.400
That would be amazing

03:56:45.400 --> 03:56:51.040
You know galleon thinks of five gifted the sandman thinks of five gifted you guys are legends all the tier ones and primes

03:56:51.040 --> 03:56:54.140
Welcome everyone every sub counts appreciate that a lot guys

03:56:54.800 --> 03:56:57.920
They had death note last place. He just can't keep his Kings safe

03:56:57.920 --> 03:57:03.920
Please invite Tyler one for the next one. Tyler one was a bit busy for this one. If the next one lines up and the time works

03:57:03.920 --> 03:57:08.180
We will get Tyler one in it's all on him. I would I would have loved to have him all the Landry

03:57:08.180 --> 03:57:11.380
I think sort of five gifts that you've gifted a lot for this event. Thank you so much brother

03:57:11.980 --> 03:57:15.140
I'm still waiting for them for the game to start. I don't think they've started yet

03:57:17.300 --> 03:57:21.160
No, I think they're still thinking about civilizations, let me see if we have a home map here

03:57:22.020 --> 03:57:26.360
No, I don't see anything. I don't see anything. Do you have any information on the lobby Daniela?

03:57:26.360 --> 03:57:35.400
No, I'm just looking at the ladder. I don't see them there either and lobby codes. They haven't been communicated so

03:57:36.160 --> 03:57:38.160
Yeah

03:57:40.160 --> 03:57:42.160
Yeah, that's fair enough. No worries

03:57:43.080 --> 03:57:49.480
Earthship earthship OSRS with the 10 gifted and oh my god. Oh my god 200 gifted from butcher. Oh

03:57:50.080 --> 03:57:53.460
My goodness, that's a bomb. That's a freaking bomb

03:57:53.460 --> 03:58:00.700
Sheesh, brother. Thank you so much. Holy. Look at that number fly up hundred gifted from K

03:58:01.540 --> 03:58:03.540
With that K shit

03:58:04.740 --> 03:58:06.740
Shit is good. I think

03:58:08.420 --> 03:58:11.660
Did you get a crack I give that name a crack? I don't know. Is it just me?

03:58:13.300 --> 03:58:15.300
I look like it

03:58:16.060 --> 03:58:20.700
All right, she is good. They said a hundred gifted. I mean, that's a big mom butcher. Thank you

03:58:20.700 --> 03:58:26.660
K-Shoot is good. Thank you. Thank you everyone. It's fantastic. The dream for 9k is looking better than ever here man

03:58:26.660 --> 03:58:29.060
I'm blown away for the support. Thank you all so much

03:58:29.780 --> 03:58:33.260
Guys get on the hype train level 19 and counting. Let's go

03:58:34.740 --> 03:58:38.180
Now I don't want to stop the next game like it's fantastic. Just keep this going

03:58:39.660 --> 03:58:45.020
The support for the event in the tournament has been has been great all across the streams

03:58:45.020 --> 03:58:59.020
people have been enjoying, and I feel like that's the best feeling when you're looking back at your event that you put together, and you see just everyone, the participants, the viewers, the cast, everyone, which is like a nice feeling.

03:58:59.020 --> 03:59:09.020
Yeah, I think Death Note earlier was trying to tell me something. I don't really understand him because Death Note's English is like, I need a translator, but I think he was telling me that he was getting a lot of donations when he was playing.

03:59:09.020 --> 03:59:14.420
He was playing some age run-fights and he keeps getting a lot of donations from the viewers, which is actually fantastic to see because

03:59:14.580 --> 03:59:19.540
The support from the community in a we too is so high and that allows the streamers to make these events happen

03:59:19.540 --> 03:59:22.360
If I didn't get these subs and support, I'd be at my friend

03:59:22.360 --> 03:59:27.700
I'd be at McDonald's while working flippin burgers. I used to work at a deli like I had nothing back in the day

03:59:27.700 --> 03:59:32.600
You guys giving me give me a job. I get to you know invest in these tournaments and there's so many subs

03:59:32.600 --> 03:59:37.180
I literally can't thank you all but thank you to everybody for these gifts itself seriously

03:59:37.180 --> 03:59:41.080
I think we're gonna hit our goal and we're gonna hop into the match because the match has started Daniela

03:59:41.080 --> 03:59:48.260
We're back on arena and oh my goodness pig has picked up the whisker. What the hell the whisker?

03:59:49.420 --> 03:59:52.020
What no the what now? Oh

03:59:54.940 --> 04:00:00.820
My god now wait a minute because people have been saying that survivalist has been coaching

04:00:00.820 --> 04:00:04.200
Oh, no, no, survivalist cooking again.

04:00:04.200 --> 04:00:05.980
Okay, wait, okay, tell me what the Muesca do

04:00:05.980 --> 04:00:07.340
because Daniela, I'm fixing the camps

04:00:07.340 --> 04:00:08.580
that even I don't know what to do.

04:00:08.580 --> 04:00:10.340
So give me some, talk to me,

04:00:10.340 --> 04:00:12.740
give me some inspiration here, the Muesca.

04:00:13.860 --> 04:00:18.620
So the Muesca have been one of the new South American

04:00:18.620 --> 04:00:21.300
civs, probably one of the newer civs.

04:00:21.300 --> 04:00:26.020
They can put up some really nice tight build order here

04:00:26.020 --> 04:00:28.860
because they're advancing to next stage,

04:00:28.860 --> 04:00:33.300
cost only half the gold, cost minus 50% gold.

04:00:33.300 --> 04:00:37.800
So you start with 100 gold in the bank on this map,

04:00:37.800 --> 04:00:40.260
you can not touch the gold, not touch the stone,

04:00:40.260 --> 04:00:41.820
not touch the market, anything,

04:00:41.820 --> 04:00:45.420
and you can just go up straight up to

04:00:46.420 --> 04:00:47.580
Castlage with this.

04:00:47.580 --> 04:00:49.660
On top of that, in terms of unit,

04:00:50.540 --> 04:00:53.060
they're a tiny bit weird, they're,

04:00:53.060 --> 04:00:56.100
first of all, I now see Pig putting down a settlement,

04:00:56.100 --> 04:01:03.820
which is great, he has the gold close by, the wood close by, that's great, they cost less

04:01:03.820 --> 04:01:09.620
for Muizka as well, and they also heal nearby units, which maybe on close maps is not that

04:01:09.620 --> 04:01:18.120
relevant since, well, you're not gonna have those half HP, or that, yeah, the village is

04:01:18.120 --> 04:01:22.700
gonna be pretty chill, by the way, like, you named a few good bonuses, but one thing we

04:01:22.700 --> 04:01:25.820
haven't talked about, I don't even know if it's relevant, but it's worth mentioning,

04:01:25.820 --> 04:01:31.420
Moisuke is a Moncrush Sim at its core. They have all of the Monastery technologies for their Monks.

04:01:31.420 --> 04:01:36.020
And they also get a special unit from their Monastery called the Temple Guard that can support the Moncrush.

04:01:36.020 --> 04:01:40.020
And they also get, as you mentioned, a cheaper age-ups in terms of gold.

04:01:40.020 --> 04:01:47.020
So, this is like the pro strategy here. You would go Moncrush with Moisuke into a fast imp.

04:01:47.020 --> 04:01:53.020
That would be like the pro way to approach this. The thing is, I don't know if Pig has Moncrushed in his life.

04:01:53.020 --> 04:01:56.500
So I don't know if he's going to go for that, and therefore I don't really know what unit

04:01:56.500 --> 04:01:58.740
composition or strategy he's going to go for.

04:01:58.740 --> 04:02:01.740
We can talk about the Burgundians up from Capmulans.

04:02:01.740 --> 04:02:06.540
The Burgundians have been a pretty, you know, pretty tried and tested civilization.

04:02:06.540 --> 04:02:10.580
Okay, I'm going to mention them again, but Grubby's been playing a lot of Burgundians

04:02:10.580 --> 04:02:13.140
and having a lot of success with the Burgundians.

04:02:13.140 --> 04:02:15.420
He's beaten Pig with the Burgundians as well.

04:02:15.420 --> 04:02:18.380
Capmulans might have gotten some inspiration there.

04:02:18.380 --> 04:02:23.500
In brigandians you could go for like a stable play, standard light cap, contest the relics,

04:02:23.500 --> 04:02:24.500
like Danelo.

04:02:24.500 --> 04:02:27.420
Last game, one light cap, four monks.

04:02:27.420 --> 04:02:31.220
Imagine if Captain Lance just makes three light caps, he'll kill like a thousand monks.

04:02:31.220 --> 04:02:37.260
So that could be like a good strategy to go for the relics here I feel.

04:02:37.260 --> 04:02:42.620
Maybe, maybe, maybe Pig is prepared for that monk rush.

04:02:42.620 --> 04:02:52.500
you are actually going to see monks and temple guards because that is a unit that kind of

04:02:52.500 --> 04:02:59.660
started some rage across the community. I feel like especially in the latest tournaments

04:02:59.660 --> 04:03:03.980
where we've seen that strat a couple of times and afterwards people have started to do it

04:03:03.980 --> 04:03:10.420
on the rank ladder. So it's definitely super annoying to deal with. The temple guard is

04:03:10.420 --> 04:03:16.040
a unit that you can make both from the Barracks and from the Monastery, so actually you don't

04:03:16.040 --> 04:03:23.620
even have to think about the Barracks, but if you're going forward with Monks, you have

04:03:23.620 --> 04:03:26.980
the option to just mix in a Temple Guard or two.

04:03:26.980 --> 04:03:30.740
They have like a 100 HP or something and they're very powerful.

04:03:30.740 --> 04:03:34.260
Yeah, so we'll talk more about the Temple Guard if we do see it.

04:03:34.260 --> 04:03:37.420
Obviously we're basically speaking foreign language right now to someone who's like

04:03:37.420 --> 04:03:41.740
new to Age of Empires, but keep in mind that the Moisuke do have this Temple Guard option

04:03:41.740 --> 04:03:46.300
if they go for the Mungrush. We'll talk about it if this does come to be. Moisuke also have a

04:03:46.300 --> 04:03:51.580
unique unit. It's kind of like a skirmisher that maybe Pig likes. Maybe that's a unit that he's,

04:03:51.580 --> 04:03:57.260
you know, it's recently gotten buffed. It's got an extra 5 HP on a recent patch. So maybe Pig is

04:03:57.260 --> 04:04:03.740
the eyeing that unique unit. Can I pause? I'm meant to check the tech. Oh, for his own Civ or for

04:04:03.740 --> 04:04:11.340
opponents of oh my god because pig no no no daniela pig didn't ask this when he

04:04:11.340 --> 04:04:17.020
was up against grubby so he's checking his own sieve i think pig is checking his own sieve

04:04:17.020 --> 04:04:22.860
oh my god who said yesterday that i never played this so save but it sounded cool

04:04:22.860 --> 04:04:27.820
a big miles fit into 25 seconds i don't think he died that was your thermal your thermal

04:04:27.820 --> 04:04:33.060
picked minds for the first time. He forgot to click loom. It's so funny. Why are they

04:04:33.060 --> 04:04:41.780
first time in Sims? Oh my God. That's just insane. The first time in Sims.

04:04:43.620 --> 04:04:50.980
All right, all right. I mean, why not let the man check his directory? Maybe what if

04:04:50.980 --> 04:04:56.940
we're going to see another champion, even though with Captain Lance, they went for

04:04:56.940 --> 04:04:58.540
champion. Yeah, maybe a game.

04:04:59.140 --> 04:05:04.260
The cat's telling me that this is the first time that Pegas used a

04:05:04.260 --> 04:05:09.980
Mesoamericans. So this might be his first time that he's actually using or like an

04:05:09.980 --> 04:05:11.300
American in the moiska.

04:05:13.580 --> 04:05:16.060
Waiting for players 14 going in.

04:05:17.020 --> 04:05:17.460
All right.

04:05:19.420 --> 04:05:20.860
What is champion? This is a champion.

04:05:20.860 --> 04:05:27.980
The champion right here, the champion scout, it's a light infantry, moves pretty fast and

04:05:27.980 --> 04:05:32.940
does okay in combat, but it's not the strongest unit.

04:05:32.940 --> 04:05:35.140
Captain Lanzin, see what he goes for with the Burgundians, he's already picked up his

04:05:35.140 --> 04:05:37.740
double bid ex, so he clearly knows what he's doing.

04:05:37.740 --> 04:05:44.620
Oh my god, he's going to stone, this is not what we're normally seeing with the Burgundians.

04:05:44.620 --> 04:05:48.980
They normally play light cab, they normally play for the relics, he's going to go for

04:05:48.980 --> 04:05:49.980
the castle.

04:05:49.980 --> 04:05:52.480
We've seen Captain Lanz do this a lot, guys.

04:05:52.480 --> 04:05:55.080
We've seen him do a lot of castle dropping,

04:05:55.080 --> 04:05:57.000
and the Burgundians have a good unique in it,

04:05:57.000 --> 04:05:58.080
the Cousinier.

04:05:58.080 --> 04:06:00.280
It's not been played a lot, but it is very good.

04:06:00.280 --> 04:06:01.600
We'll talk about it if it comes to be,

04:06:01.600 --> 04:06:04.560
but this one on stone, it could be a castle drop.

04:06:04.560 --> 04:06:06.360
It could just be a boom, though, honestly.

04:06:06.360 --> 04:06:08.060
It could just be a boom, hold on.

04:06:10.160 --> 04:06:12.160
A boom with stone?

04:06:12.160 --> 04:06:13.000
Yeah, yeah.

04:06:13.000 --> 04:06:13.840
Fortissimo?

04:06:13.840 --> 04:06:15.360
Yeah, we saw it on the fortress, you know,

04:06:15.360 --> 04:06:16.560
like they take a little of stone,

04:06:16.560 --> 04:06:17.920
they take the 10 gold.

04:06:17.920 --> 04:06:19.880
Is it the fortress build?

04:06:19.880 --> 04:06:21.880
We haven't seen it on Arena though, I'm not sure.

04:06:21.880 --> 04:06:22.880
They can more maybe Castle drop.

04:06:22.880 --> 04:06:25.880
But no, it could be Boom, honestly.

04:06:25.880 --> 04:06:28.880
Now that is interesting.

04:06:28.880 --> 04:06:33.880
I do think he's going to take the Castle drop approach.

04:06:33.880 --> 04:06:40.880
Now I just don't know if he's going to make a safe Castle, or if he's going to risk it forward.

04:06:40.880 --> 04:06:43.880
Pigs, uptime, it's 23 plus 2.

04:06:43.880 --> 04:06:48.880
This is telling me some sort of very aggressive build.

04:06:48.880 --> 04:06:53.760
but something went terribly wrong because he had 600 wood in his bank.

04:06:53.760 --> 04:06:59.920
No, no, it's an aggressive build. Pig is queuing Loom. You only get Loom and Arena if you're going

04:06:59.920 --> 04:07:04.400
to go forward. I actually think he's monk rushing. I think he's monk rushing with the Mooska.

04:07:04.400 --> 04:07:09.520
I can't believe it. I think so too. This game is going to be cinema chat. This game is going to be

04:07:09.520 --> 04:07:15.120
cinema. If what we're seeing is accurate, this game is going to be cinema. Also, Daniela, there's

04:07:15.120 --> 04:07:20.000
loom for Captain Lance. I think he also wants the forward castle. Oh my god.

04:07:20.000 --> 04:07:28.480
Well, that's the thing because I was thinking, the aggressiveness that Captain Lance is showing,

04:07:28.480 --> 04:07:36.240
I wouldn't expect that Castle to go up in his base just protecting the gold, protecting

04:07:36.240 --> 04:07:40.680
his base. When I've seen him being aggressive, he went forward.

04:07:40.680 --> 04:07:43.620
Okay, this Barracks is very confusing for Captain Alliance.

04:07:43.620 --> 04:07:48.040
I think I know why he wants it, but it's a bad time to get it if I'm correct.

04:07:48.040 --> 04:07:52.740
I think he wants that because he wants to play a few Flemish Militia to just secure

04:07:52.740 --> 04:07:55.640
the castle forward, or he could just want to stable.

04:07:55.640 --> 04:07:59.400
He's gonna make a monastery now, sorry, a market, excuse me, and I think he wants to

04:07:59.400 --> 04:08:00.400
stable.

04:08:00.400 --> 04:08:02.400
Make some mining camp deletes.

04:08:02.400 --> 04:08:03.400
Stable?

04:08:03.400 --> 04:08:04.400
Stable?

04:08:04.400 --> 04:08:05.400
There we go, stable.

04:08:05.400 --> 04:08:07.920
So he's gonna go stable market, okay.

04:08:07.920 --> 04:08:12.120
I think maybe stable for a few like to have just to take the map and go for the forward castle, maybe.

04:08:15.160 --> 04:08:20.160
Kind of few stone in the bank, however, he can move all of the bills that are going to run out of food.

04:08:20.460 --> 04:08:25.700
Big random is already one minute and 30 seconds away from the next stage.

04:08:26.460 --> 04:08:30.460
I think he we can already start seeing two or three villagers moving forward.

04:08:30.900 --> 04:08:32.660
Double monastery siege workshop.

04:08:32.660 --> 04:08:36.880
Let's see if he goes for it.

04:08:36.880 --> 04:08:37.880
He has looms.

04:08:37.880 --> 04:08:38.880
Anyone?

04:08:38.880 --> 04:08:39.880
Anyone?

04:08:39.880 --> 04:08:42.100
Anyone's coming forward?

04:08:42.100 --> 04:08:43.100
He has looms.

04:08:43.100 --> 04:08:45.500
If he doesn't come forward, he's just got looms for no reason.

04:08:45.500 --> 04:08:47.500
That doesn't make any sense.

04:08:47.500 --> 04:08:49.500
No, he's coming forward.

04:08:49.500 --> 04:08:50.500
He's coming forward.

04:08:50.500 --> 04:08:51.500
He's getting a munk rush.

04:08:51.500 --> 04:08:53.380
How is he getting a munk rush?

04:08:53.380 --> 04:08:55.220
Or maybe it's not a munk rush.

04:08:55.220 --> 04:08:56.220
Maybe it's a siege push?

04:08:56.220 --> 04:08:57.220
I don't know.

04:08:57.220 --> 04:08:59.540
Can't people get caught up though?

04:08:59.540 --> 04:09:06.540
I think it's Mung Siege, but he's also trying to distract us, cut away and move us forward.

04:09:06.540 --> 04:09:07.540
That's smart.

04:09:07.540 --> 04:09:08.540
Yeah.

04:09:08.540 --> 04:09:09.540
That's really smart.

04:09:09.540 --> 04:09:10.540
That's 200 IQ.

04:09:10.540 --> 04:09:13.860
He's going to sacrifice the champion on this side, and he's going to run the Vils out here.

04:09:13.860 --> 04:09:17.260
If Captain Lance is really smart, he would know, wait, why did he run this way?

04:09:17.260 --> 04:09:18.260
Let me go check this way.

04:09:18.260 --> 04:09:21.300
Captain Lance might not be thinking about that, but he's also got a few Flemish Militia

04:09:21.300 --> 04:09:22.300
on the field.

04:09:22.300 --> 04:09:26.020
Like I talked about, Flemish Militia can control the map, it's pretty nice.

04:09:26.020 --> 04:09:28.340
And he's going to also go forward with some villagers.

04:09:28.340 --> 04:09:32.180
both on the map with army and villagers. This is crazy. This is literally crazy.

04:09:33.300 --> 04:09:38.980
Oh my god. That workshop might have been discovered, if only.

04:09:39.540 --> 04:09:44.980
If only. If you scouted this GG, Katmantz has not seen it. The bear is pretty annoying.

04:09:44.980 --> 04:09:54.820
See Jorkshop forward for the Muiska. Oh my god, this is absolute cinema. The workshop is going to go

04:09:54.820 --> 04:10:02.180
up. Captain Lance has no vision about any of that. I love that Nick actually walled in his

04:10:02.180 --> 04:10:10.020
villagers. That's very important. Yeah, just in case. All right, it's gonna be monastery after

04:10:10.020 --> 04:10:15.380
that. It's gonna be temple guard ram. It's gonna be temple guard ram. Okay, we have to talk about

04:10:15.380 --> 04:10:18.660
the temple guard. Let's wait for the monastery though. First of all, let's see what Captain Lance

04:10:18.660 --> 04:10:22.260
is gonna go for. He's gonna go for a monastery here and he's gonna try to pick up the relics

04:10:22.260 --> 04:10:27.220
with the Burgundians and he also probably wants a forward castle. Is he gonna go for it? A defensive

04:10:27.220 --> 04:10:32.100
castle would be amazing versus this, but Captain Lance does not know about this. Okay, let's talk

04:10:32.100 --> 04:10:38.020
about the temple guard. The temple guard is a 100 HP unit from the monastery that attacks faster the

04:10:38.020 --> 04:10:43.140
more it hits. It's very good against knights, it's very good against buildings, okay? It's quite

04:10:43.140 --> 04:10:47.700
tanky as well. Castle in the center for Captain Lance. He goes middle of the map castle. That's

04:10:47.700 --> 04:10:52.020
neither offensive, that's not defensive, that's the worst case scenario for Captain Lance and

04:10:52.020 --> 04:10:54.020
And now the Ramp is on his walls.

04:10:54.020 --> 04:10:56.020
Then Nela, what do you make of this?

04:10:56.020 --> 04:11:03.020
I make that in exactly maybe 30 seconds at the first side of that unit.

04:11:03.020 --> 04:11:05.020
Captain Lance is going to pause.

04:11:05.020 --> 04:11:06.020
He's going to pause.

04:11:06.020 --> 04:11:07.020
What the hell is that?

04:11:07.020 --> 04:11:09.020
Check the tech tree real quick.

04:11:09.020 --> 04:11:10.020
Let's see if you're right.

04:11:10.020 --> 04:11:11.020
Will he pause?

04:11:11.020 --> 04:11:13.020
There's a random ass unit at the temple guard.

04:11:13.020 --> 04:11:15.020
Captain Lance might not have seen it.

04:11:15.020 --> 04:11:18.020
He's played a lot of games of Age of Empires, but this is a new unit with a new DLC.

04:11:18.020 --> 04:11:19.020
The Ramps are in.

04:11:19.020 --> 04:11:20.020
The temple guard is here.

04:11:20.020 --> 04:11:27.000
Pig is cooking. Oh my god second monastery is a double temple guard production two rams temple guards coming in

04:11:27.000 --> 04:11:29.260
It's not a monk rush. It's a temple guard rush

04:11:30.100 --> 04:11:34.620
Good wall. I love that. This strategy has been taking a by surprise

04:11:35.220 --> 04:11:37.220
Pro players and ornaments. Yes

04:11:39.180 --> 04:11:42.360
It's very hard I love you, but if you're listening to this

04:11:42.360 --> 04:11:44.880
Shad on hearts!

04:11:44.880 --> 04:11:49.920
In temple guard guys, 12 attack, 1-1 armor, 100 HP.

04:11:49.920 --> 04:11:52.240
The more it hits, the faster it attacks.

04:11:52.240 --> 04:11:55.720
So it's great against buildings, it just nuked that Flemish militia.

04:11:55.720 --> 04:11:56.720
No chance.

04:11:56.720 --> 04:12:00.520
You could convert them though, you could convert them nice and easy, but listen, stables down,

04:12:00.520 --> 04:12:01.520
markets down.

04:12:01.520 --> 04:12:02.520
Where's the castle?

04:12:02.520 --> 04:12:07.120
Oh, the castle is in the middle of the map.

04:12:07.120 --> 04:12:14.000
I was going to say, what if, what if Captain Lance would have went for that safe approach for once, you know?

04:12:14.000 --> 04:12:17.140
Yeah, for once, just a castle at home, but it's not Captain Lance's style.

04:12:17.140 --> 04:12:21.480
Captain Lance will die and live by the forward castle. That's how it is.

04:12:21.480 --> 04:12:25.440
He's winning with the forward castle, he's dying with the forward castle, but maybe he can hold.

04:12:25.440 --> 04:12:28.600
He's gonna try to convert, he has to hop into the ram, he has to hop into the ram.

04:12:28.600 --> 04:12:30.600
Beautiful! He hops in.

04:12:30.600 --> 04:12:31.100
Heh.

04:12:31.100 --> 04:12:38.100
This is so dangerous! Look at them hopping over one side and the other one.

04:12:38.100 --> 04:12:44.100
Guys, when you target a conversion and then you hide the unit that's targeted in the RAM,

04:12:44.100 --> 04:12:48.100
the monk loses the charge.

04:12:48.100 --> 04:12:50.100
Yeah, the charge of the conversion.

04:12:50.100 --> 04:12:53.100
Yeah, exactly. You're gonna have to start recharging all over again.

04:12:53.100 --> 04:12:57.100
So that's why the RAM micro is so important.

04:12:57.100 --> 04:12:58.100
Oh my god.

04:12:58.100 --> 04:13:00.340
Oh my, Flemish Militia is getting shit on.

04:13:00.340 --> 04:13:02.980
Oh, we're in on the wood line, there's a hole in the wood.

04:13:02.980 --> 04:13:04.500
We have a loom at least.

04:13:04.500 --> 04:13:07.140
But dude, these guys are so, so strong.

04:13:07.140 --> 04:13:08.820
One conversion comes out though.

04:13:08.820 --> 04:13:11.540
We need these conversions, can we snipe the manganelle?

04:13:11.540 --> 04:13:12.180
Not quite.

04:13:12.180 --> 04:13:17.620
Pig is showing the best preparation out of anybody in this tournament.

04:13:17.620 --> 04:13:21.220
Pig is going with a manganelle, a ram, and a few temple guards.

04:13:21.220 --> 04:13:22.580
And there's nothing to defend.

04:13:22.580 --> 04:13:24.740
Captain Lance is completely naked back home.

04:13:24.740 --> 04:13:26.340
Phew, Flemish Militia.

04:13:26.340 --> 04:13:31.060
He's going home. He's got four relics though. He's got four relics with brigandians. Maybe he can hold oh

04:13:32.740 --> 04:13:34.820
My god, well, I

04:13:34.820 --> 04:13:42.980
I don't want to speak too soon, but it's exactly like you said he's showing the most amount of preparation the most diverse strats

04:13:44.460 --> 04:13:49.500
This is already a great series. This is a fantastic showcase of you know

04:13:49.500 --> 04:13:58.700
Now, dedication from Pig to just learn and expand his horizon with new units, with new

04:13:58.700 --> 04:14:00.140
strats, with new civs.

04:14:00.140 --> 04:14:01.640
I love to see this.

04:14:01.640 --> 04:14:05.300
You showed it yesterday with the Janss, or you showed it today with the Temple Guards.

04:14:05.300 --> 04:14:07.700
But by the way, this game is not over.

04:14:07.700 --> 04:14:09.940
Warburg and the Inrelix is a crazy advantage.

04:14:09.940 --> 04:14:12.860
The fifth one he can grab later, he's defending with monks.

04:14:12.860 --> 04:14:15.620
It looks really bad, but all he has to do is hold.

04:14:15.620 --> 04:14:18.300
And Pig is only one base behind this.

04:14:18.300 --> 04:14:24.660
can turn the tide honestly conversion oh my god oh my god no he doesn't get the

04:14:24.660 --> 04:14:29.700
second though Lance has a score lead Lance is holding oh my god if Lance

04:14:29.700 --> 04:14:35.780
holds that's the craziest hold of the tournaments I don't know Monastery is

04:14:35.780 --> 04:14:42.300
about to to go down soon if those temple guards are hopping into it we have a

04:14:42.300 --> 04:14:45.380
second one though we're not even waiting about that we got a second one we see

04:14:45.380 --> 04:14:49.500
some Couste dier, a couple Couste dier, you gotta kill the ram with something. And Pig,

04:14:49.500 --> 04:14:53.860
I feel like Pig keeps misplaying. He keeps going really far. Triple conversion! Oh my

04:14:53.860 --> 04:14:57.960
god! Triple conversion from Lance! And the converted units are killing the remaining

04:14:57.960 --> 04:15:04.380
units from Pig! Holy! What a hole from Lance, the monks! Get the job done! This is fantastic

04:15:04.380 --> 04:15:05.380
for him!

04:15:05.380 --> 04:15:13.500
Oh, but here come the Wies come on. They're wanting to get all of those conversions back.

04:15:13.500 --> 04:15:16.340
and they regain faith way faster.

04:15:16.340 --> 04:15:17.340
Yeah.

04:15:17.340 --> 04:15:18.340
Moiska said bonus.

04:15:18.340 --> 04:15:22.780
You regain faith 50% faster, but Captain Lance is getting atonement.

04:15:22.780 --> 04:15:26.140
Atonement lets monks convert enemy monks.

04:15:26.140 --> 04:15:29.100
Hig needs the same upgrade if this is going to go into a monk war.

04:15:29.100 --> 04:15:32.980
Captain Lance might have a lot of more experience in this situation though.

04:15:32.980 --> 04:15:37.540
Dude, this is the best game we could have ever asked for out of these two players.

04:15:37.540 --> 04:15:38.540
Defensive Castle.

04:15:38.540 --> 04:15:39.540
He's got the four relics.

04:15:39.540 --> 04:15:42.180
He's got a ton of reds coming in from the Burgundian relics.

04:15:42.180 --> 04:15:43.180
Defensive Castle is really good.

04:15:43.180 --> 04:15:48.020
It's gonna hold the gold hold the stone the woodlands gone though. We need wood. We have enough for another lumber camp

04:15:48.060 --> 04:15:51.860
Dude Lance is safe Lance is actually in a decent position converting the monks

04:15:52.500 --> 04:15:58.300
This is so freakin good like we were talking how a good pig is for coming up with the new strat

04:15:58.300 --> 04:16:05.300
But captain Lance was prepared. I didn't expect captain Lance to know right now. What the hell atonement is there's so many

04:16:06.020 --> 04:16:06.980
viewers

04:16:06.980 --> 04:16:11.580
that have been playing for ten years and they don't know what it is that they're prepared with a

04:16:11.580 --> 04:16:18.260
Monastery tax, Pig is getting devotion which kind of increases the conversion

04:16:18.260 --> 04:16:20.900
resistance on your units as well.

04:16:20.900 --> 04:16:24.260
He's also getting Atonement. It's gonna be a monk war. It's gonna be monks vs monks guys.

04:16:24.260 --> 04:16:28.340
You convert one, I convert it back, that's how it works. It's monk vs monks and

04:16:28.340 --> 04:16:32.660
devotion coming in is really good for Pig. It's gonna make his monks harder to

04:16:32.660 --> 04:16:36.860
convert. We need devotion from Captain Lance if this does evolve into a monk

04:16:36.860 --> 04:16:41.460
war. But I have to say we have a ton of res. Coussivier here. The unique unit

04:16:41.460 --> 04:16:44.940
would be great like everybody's not using the crusade in I'm starting to think

04:16:44.940 --> 04:16:48.220
they're racist the French people honestly honestly it's such a good unit we

04:16:48.220 --> 04:16:57.700
can use it and has a French name but it's still good redemption from Captain

04:16:57.700 --> 04:17:04.580
Lance he's flexing he's he's going for all of them he wants that manganelle so

04:17:04.580 --> 04:17:09.860
redemption let's him convert siege it's an expensive tactile 475 gold income the

04:17:09.860 --> 04:17:13.400
It's Monk V1. Oh my god, it's just it's literally hands up and watch

04:17:15.100 --> 04:17:17.440
To convert your life might be so good

04:17:19.300 --> 04:17:25.120
We can bridge this for a red Lance is going for the manganelle though. Dude. This is really good for pig

04:17:28.740 --> 04:17:30.740
It is got the manganelle

04:17:31.580 --> 04:17:33.580
Definitely a lot of those

04:17:33.900 --> 04:17:39.040
Lumberjacks are yesterday's news. Captain Lance has no wood access right now. Yeah

04:17:39.040 --> 04:17:41.040
Yeah, he's got to have a lumber cab.

04:17:41.040 --> 04:17:45.040
Oh by the way, Pig is trying to hug the manganelle so that Cat Lanz can't shoot him.

04:17:45.040 --> 04:17:47.540
Dude, Pig's micro with the monks has been stellar.

04:17:47.540 --> 04:17:50.040
It's literally so good and now there's more conversions.

04:17:50.040 --> 04:17:54.540
But Captain Lanz's economy is a disaster behind this, but he's got almost enough friends for imp.

04:17:54.540 --> 04:17:56.540
Bro, he can just get imp.

04:17:58.540 --> 04:18:03.540
He could, but is that the correct call right now?

04:18:03.540 --> 04:18:05.540
You go imp in a monk war?

04:18:05.540 --> 04:18:07.040
It's really good in my opinion.

04:18:07.040 --> 04:18:10.320
Maybe not the theoretical best call, but it's okay, you know?

04:18:12.040 --> 04:18:13.320
I agree.

04:18:14.320 --> 04:18:18.440
Because of the, of course, the block printing, which gives you a conversion from more range.

04:18:18.440 --> 04:18:23.120
But right now it feels like Captain Lance couldn't get wood control.

04:18:23.480 --> 04:18:24.760
Yeah, we have no wood.

04:18:25.520 --> 04:18:30.360
We could just take the backwood that we're not actually that stressed in terms of resources.

04:18:30.600 --> 04:18:35.080
But it's really just like the presence of mind to expand your economy when you're just fighting monks be monks.

04:18:35.080 --> 04:18:37.880
The micro has been insane from both players, by the way.

04:18:37.880 --> 04:18:40.680
I don't think you guys understand how good the level's been.

04:18:40.680 --> 04:18:44.680
This does not feel like a 1600 yellow game. It feels more like a 2k yellow game. I'm not joking.

04:18:46.600 --> 04:18:48.600
Absolutely. And it's just hilarious that right now,

04:18:48.600 --> 04:18:53.400
Kathleen has actually more temple guards on the field than big.

04:18:55.560 --> 04:18:57.320
Yeah, that's true. Actually, he's got what?

04:18:57.320 --> 04:19:00.200
He's got five temple guards to two temple guards?

04:19:00.200 --> 04:19:01.720
The conversion is crazy.

04:19:01.720 --> 04:19:03.320
Just hit him back with his own units.

04:19:03.320 --> 04:19:05.320
We can heal them up and just attack them.

04:19:05.640 --> 04:19:08.720
More villagers for Pig, but Pig behind this is not really making villagers.

04:19:08.720 --> 04:19:12.360
He's actually got 11 minutes of idle TC time, which is a lot of idle TC.

04:19:12.360 --> 04:19:14.620
So Pig, maybe outside of his comfort zone,

04:19:16.480 --> 04:19:20.360
Redemption's in, this Mangano is in trouble. Lance has great month micro.

04:19:21.160 --> 04:19:22.360
Oh wow.

04:19:22.360 --> 04:19:27.480
Conversing Mangano. Yes, yes a conversion, but among died in the process, eh? It's important to

04:19:28.000 --> 04:19:32.600
state here that okay, there is redemption in but there's no sanctity. Sanctity gives

04:19:33.320 --> 04:19:39.760
The monks extra 15 HP and they can actually survive a manganale shot. Yes with sanctity

04:19:40.060 --> 04:19:42.440
And it's an important upgrade that hasn't come in for Lance Lance

04:19:42.440 --> 04:19:45.960
I think the Lance is looking at Imperial Edge Lance and eyeing Imperial Edge

04:19:46.960 --> 04:19:49.200
The hold has been stellar so far. Oh

04:19:50.040 --> 04:19:55.480
But pig gets a couple conversions converts the temple guard converts a monkey still has a push that's live over here

04:19:56.280 --> 04:19:59.080
Capital lines keeps trying to actually convert the monks back

04:19:59.080 --> 04:20:09.080
We talked about it earlier, but Muisca, they get their monk juice back 50% faster, so they can convert pretty much double if they're microing correctly with the monks.

04:20:09.080 --> 04:20:17.080
But so far, Pig with a ten-ville lead, Lance, trying to go for imp, but he decides... Oh, he decides to cue Coussidier instead.

04:20:17.080 --> 04:20:25.080
He's gonna go petard in Coussidier. He's gonna break the wall and go for Coussidier. Pig is coming out though. Where are we going?

04:20:25.080 --> 04:20:27.080
Who did you know was a castle?

04:20:27.280 --> 04:20:30.580
Captain Lest is gonna start looking for a king to snipe.

04:20:31.260 --> 04:20:37.840
He has two patards, the Kutsudes, the king type I've ever seen one, but Pig has no idea this castle's here.

04:20:39.320 --> 04:20:41.320
He's gonna walk past it.

04:20:42.960 --> 04:20:45.460
A castle in Captain Lest's face.

04:20:45.460 --> 04:20:50.460
Oh, he wants a castle. He's got the stone. Pig has the stone for the castle.

04:20:50.460 --> 04:20:54.960
dude this is anybody's game but why do we have guitars and we're gonna go for a

04:20:54.960 --> 04:20:58.260
counterattack more villagers coming forward it's not the right time for

04:20:58.260 --> 04:21:01.260
counterattack it's a great idea but right now we have to defend our base

04:21:01.260 --> 04:21:04.500
captain Lance sees these villagers though he's got the Kusidei sees the

04:21:04.500 --> 04:21:10.820
villagers oh pig is getting massacred though pig is getting massacred I think

04:21:10.820 --> 04:21:16.060
I think captain Lance has been playing a fantastic game he's been under so much

04:21:16.060 --> 04:21:23.260
pressure this entire time. I don't know how he has he had so many rest in the bank now he has

04:21:23.260 --> 04:21:29.660
so much more military is 22 military units versus only three wow he has three temple guards.

04:21:30.780 --> 04:21:36.780
Gigi wow I can't believe it it's a game five it's a cinema what a hold from captain Lance

04:21:36.780 --> 04:21:42.300
what a push from pig what a hold from Lance what a nice try from pig to you know kind of come

04:21:42.300 --> 04:21:46.940
come forward in the forward castle, but Captain Lance stuffs it, and we have a game five.

04:21:46.940 --> 04:21:48.500
It's literal cinema.

04:21:48.500 --> 04:21:53.060
Every set this tournament has went to game five out of the favorites of the tournament,

04:21:53.060 --> 04:21:54.780
out of the four captains.

04:21:54.780 --> 04:21:58.720
None of them has one over the other without a three-two.

04:21:58.720 --> 04:21:59.900
Another game five between the captains.

04:21:59.900 --> 04:22:03.780
The captains are so closely matched, it's ridiculous.

04:22:03.780 --> 04:22:09.140
And now we have Captain Lance going in to game five after a stellar, stellar defense.

04:22:09.140 --> 04:22:10.140
That triple conversion.

04:22:10.140 --> 04:22:12.440
Dude, let me just go back and watch that triple conversion.

04:22:12.440 --> 04:22:15.700
I mean, that triple conversion completely solved the game.

04:22:15.700 --> 04:22:18.720
Right here, I think it was around here.

04:22:18.720 --> 04:22:21.220
The game was looking messy.

04:22:21.220 --> 04:22:22.220
What a fantastic series.

04:22:22.220 --> 04:22:23.220
Oh my god.

04:22:23.220 --> 04:22:24.220
Yeah, right here, right here.

04:22:24.220 --> 04:22:25.220
Think of it like this.

04:22:25.220 --> 04:22:26.220
Think of it like this.

04:22:26.220 --> 04:22:27.220
Triple conversion.

04:22:27.220 --> 04:22:30.140
He can miss three units and he instantly kills another two.

04:22:30.140 --> 04:22:33.380
So it was six red units, now it's three blue units, one red unit.

04:22:33.380 --> 04:22:34.620
That's insane.

04:22:34.620 --> 04:22:38.500
And that right there was the hold that he needed to actually survive.

04:22:38.500 --> 04:22:43.300
It was 23 Vils, he looked like he was dead, completely dead.

04:22:43.300 --> 04:22:45.180
Damn, I'm so impressed man.

04:22:45.180 --> 04:22:47.980
Both these players deserve a lot of respect honestly.

04:22:47.980 --> 04:22:57.420
And I don't know how much the new viewers know about the game or for those of them that

04:22:57.420 --> 04:23:02.580
are watching this for the first time, it's important for you guys to understand the level

04:23:02.580 --> 04:23:07.140
of, I don't know, that these two players just play that game.

04:23:07.140 --> 04:23:08.140
Yeah.

04:23:08.140 --> 04:23:12.700
I'm super impressed, like knowing all the muntaks going for the strat,

04:23:12.700 --> 04:23:16.340
Captain Lance probably didn't expect that push, maybe he did.

04:23:16.340 --> 04:23:20.180
Just keeping his composure, you know, doing all the right things.

04:23:20.180 --> 04:23:21.940
It was a great, great hold.

04:23:21.940 --> 04:23:24.380
Yeah, really well played, man, really well played.

04:23:24.380 --> 04:23:27.820
Just so impressed and we're gonna go into a game five now.

04:23:27.820 --> 04:23:30.580
It's gonna be Pig's home map though, keep that in mind.

04:23:30.580 --> 04:23:34.940
It's gonna be game five, Pig's home map

04:23:34.940 --> 04:23:37.340
and I think he's likely to choose Arabia.

04:23:37.340 --> 04:23:41.840
He's gone through his Bohemian Thunder Arena. He's put a lot of time to that. He doesn't have that anymore.

04:23:41.840 --> 04:23:43.840
We've seen that Captain Lance maybe a little...

04:23:43.840 --> 04:23:49.340
Maybe underprepared for Arabia. Some suspicious strategies that haven't really worked out for him.

04:23:49.340 --> 04:23:51.340
So I feel like...

04:23:51.340 --> 04:23:56.340
Yeah, I feel like Pig, just bringing this to Arabia for a Game 5 is a comfortable advantage for him,

04:23:56.340 --> 04:24:01.840
but I wouldn't count out Captain Lance, because those weird strategies only have to work one time if it's a 2-2.

04:24:01.840 --> 04:24:04.340
And actually, a minute to just be right back here.

04:24:04.340 --> 04:24:08.340
Daniela, while they wait, entertain the chat for me, please, if you don't mind.

04:24:08.340 --> 04:24:12.340
Oh boy, sure.

04:24:12.340 --> 04:24:16.340
We're looking towards the last game of the series.

04:24:16.340 --> 04:24:20.340
Again, stressing out that this is the upper bracket, the final.

04:24:20.340 --> 04:24:25.340
The winner goes straight into the grand final, and the loser still has a chance to date,

04:24:25.340 --> 04:24:30.340
but is going to be just a tiny bit tougher. Chad, I'm very happy to be here with you guys.

04:24:30.340 --> 04:24:33.380
you're enjoying the series.

04:24:33.380 --> 04:24:34.060
Bear with me.

04:24:34.060 --> 04:24:35.860
I'm a tiny bit nervous.

04:24:35.860 --> 04:24:38.100
I'm not used to this big audience,

04:24:38.100 --> 04:24:42.580
but I've been having a fantastic time so far.

04:24:42.580 --> 04:24:42.980
I don't know.

04:24:42.980 --> 04:24:46.700
I'm happy Hera wanted to co-cast today as well.

04:24:46.700 --> 04:24:47.700
I've always offered.

04:24:52.500 --> 04:24:53.900
Brouette Daniela, do you understand the chat

04:24:53.900 --> 04:24:58.180
like the courgette tell us who's Daniela?

04:24:58.180 --> 04:24:59.660
I'm a caster in the scene.

04:24:59.660 --> 04:25:02.540
But I'm a small caster.

04:25:02.540 --> 04:25:06.220
I'm not as known as the top boys.

04:25:06.220 --> 04:25:13.100
But I'm definitely trying to be more involved.

04:25:13.100 --> 04:25:15.620
I'm casting a lot of the events on my channel.

04:25:15.620 --> 04:25:20.020
So when Hera's not online, make sure you give that a check.

04:25:20.020 --> 04:25:24.740
And yeah, I've been starting to cast a couple of years ago.

04:25:24.740 --> 04:25:28.460
I'm full-time casting for like two years now, I think.

04:25:29.660 --> 04:25:38.960
So, it's nice to see growing a channel and a community out of nowhere, basically.

04:25:38.960 --> 04:25:46.540
I never was invested into video games, AWEs, the only thing that I watch and play until

04:25:46.540 --> 04:25:47.540
recently.

04:25:47.540 --> 04:25:52.780
Now I'm kind of starting to get more into other names.

04:25:52.780 --> 04:25:57.340
Daniela has next, Red Bull or Riot.

04:25:57.340 --> 04:25:58.340
One can only wish.

04:25:58.340 --> 04:26:00.340
What's your twitch name?

04:26:00.340 --> 04:26:03.340
Daniela Awee.

04:26:03.340 --> 04:26:05.340
What do you like about the remaining contestants?

04:26:05.340 --> 04:26:12.700
This, what we just saw, the fighting spirit, the arm, and I don't want to sound too biased,

04:26:12.700 --> 04:26:19.300
but I think I'm just on team pig, rooting for him to win this event.

04:26:19.300 --> 04:26:23.020
He just was so impressive with new strats, with new sieves.

04:26:23.020 --> 04:26:28.020
Alright, I'm back and it looks like Pig is still AFK.

04:26:28.020 --> 04:26:30.140
Got a red boat to refuel things of course.

04:26:30.140 --> 04:26:34.860
Keep the energy high into this game 5.

04:26:34.860 --> 04:26:37.220
And let's see what they can do man.

04:26:37.220 --> 04:26:38.580
Pig's home map.

04:26:38.580 --> 04:26:40.300
I don't know what he's going to go for.

04:26:40.300 --> 04:26:46.820
Maybe Arabia probably, but in terms of civilizations he's already used his Vietnamese.

04:26:46.820 --> 04:26:51.460
What did he play yesterday against Grubby on Arabia besides Vietnamese?

04:26:51.460 --> 04:26:52.580
He played the Wu.

04:26:52.580 --> 04:26:54.300
Maybe he pulls the Wu out again, honestly.

04:26:54.300 --> 04:26:55.300
I don't know.

04:26:55.300 --> 04:27:04.260
Oh, my God, Hera, I've been receiving so much love from your channel.

04:27:04.260 --> 04:27:05.260
I don't know.

04:27:05.260 --> 04:27:07.140
I just appreciate it.

04:27:07.140 --> 04:27:09.380
I just want to say that really quick.

04:27:09.380 --> 04:27:13.340
Thanks for all the follows and all the support and all the nice words.

04:27:13.340 --> 04:27:14.900
You guys are absolutely fantastic.

04:27:14.900 --> 04:27:15.900
Nice.

04:27:15.900 --> 04:27:20.500
I I love all of you guys. I in the support has been absolutely amazing

04:27:22.660 --> 04:27:25.260
Yeah, we got to take this turn at the starcraft next by the way

We'll all move there plays in Starcraft realize that game of shit come back place in a week you

04:27:43.620 --> 04:27:45.620
I think it sounds good, honestly.

04:27:45.620 --> 04:27:54.940
Sounds good, just take out this rotation and do whatever game, what could go wrong.

04:27:54.940 --> 04:27:58.060
You guys have been having a blast.

04:27:58.060 --> 04:28:03.340
My Warcraft 3, I now have Warcraft 3 as a recommended.

04:28:03.340 --> 04:28:09.140
First of all, I have been watching and playing AOE for years.

04:28:09.140 --> 04:28:11.780
Nothing else on Twitch, on YouTube.

04:28:11.780 --> 04:28:14.380
Now I have Warcraft 3 games recommended.

04:28:14.380 --> 04:28:19.780
Now I find myself stumbling upon a channel, oh look, I'm watching Warcraft 3 now.

04:28:19.780 --> 04:28:22.780
Yeah, what do you even know about Warcraft 3, Daniela?

04:28:22.780 --> 04:28:23.780
Listen to me here.

04:28:23.780 --> 04:28:31.660
Undead is the weakest race, Night Elf is for psychopaths, Orc is for the aggro-royd ragers,

04:28:31.660 --> 04:28:34.220
and Human is for the pupil that wants to win.

04:28:34.220 --> 04:28:35.780
It's the best set in the game.

04:28:35.780 --> 04:28:37.180
That is Warcraft, okay?

04:28:37.180 --> 04:28:38.180
Summarized.

04:28:38.180 --> 04:28:39.180
That's the whole game.

04:28:39.180 --> 04:28:42.160
All right, and who's coiling, who's ass?

04:28:42.160 --> 04:28:43.700
No, I'm coiling everybody's ass.

04:28:43.700 --> 04:28:44.980
I'm the undead coiler.

04:28:44.980 --> 04:28:46.460
But it's the weakest of the game.

04:28:46.460 --> 04:28:48.260
I'm telling you, it's the weakest of.

04:28:48.260 --> 04:28:49.500
All right, all right.

04:28:54.860 --> 04:28:55.940
Fun-ass game though.

04:28:55.940 --> 04:28:57.620
Love me some more crap.

04:28:57.620 --> 04:28:59.860
Oh, we have a game.

04:28:59.860 --> 04:29:00.700
We have a game.

04:29:00.700 --> 04:29:01.520
We have Arabia.

04:29:01.520 --> 04:29:02.340
Sorry.

04:29:02.340 --> 04:29:03.180
It's Arabia.

04:29:03.180 --> 04:29:05.260
Koreans, what?

04:29:05.260 --> 04:29:06.780
Oh my god, I gotta get in here.

04:29:06.780 --> 04:29:08.660
Sounds hype as hell.

04:29:08.660 --> 04:29:12.660
I don't have the freaking dashboards failing me, it's a guy I got it though.

04:29:15.160 --> 04:29:17.660
I don't know what happened right in, what happened right in.

04:29:18.660 --> 04:29:19.660
Oh my god, get me in!

04:29:20.660 --> 04:29:21.660
Let me in!

04:29:22.660 --> 04:29:24.660
Oh, Korean Chinese!

04:29:24.660 --> 04:29:27.660
Oh, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, this is nice, this is nice.

04:29:29.660 --> 04:29:31.660
Koreans Chinese.

04:29:31.660 --> 04:29:36.660
Koreans, I don't think we've seen them yet on Arabia at least.

04:29:36.660 --> 04:29:42.180
we've seen them on fortress yeah yeah we've seen them on fortress on Arabia

04:29:42.180 --> 04:29:46.140
it's the first to welcome everyone to a game five between pig and captain Lance

04:29:46.140 --> 04:29:49.640
it slipped my mind we're talking about pig said but yeah that's true he does

04:29:49.640 --> 04:29:53.600
play the Chinese and this is considered to be the best civilization on Arabia in

04:29:53.600 --> 04:29:58.120
terms of pro play but it's also good for him like he's played he plays it well

04:29:58.120 --> 04:30:02.720
it's a great civilization he won his best of five yesterday with the Chinese

04:30:02.720 --> 04:30:06.640
he kind of clutched it out he's doing it again your boy pig back on a game five

04:30:06.640 --> 04:30:12.220
with Chinese, but this time up against Captain Lance's Koreans. What the hell is he cooking

04:30:12.220 --> 04:30:16.040
with Koreans? They've got a bunch of good strategies that they can go for. He already

04:30:16.040 --> 04:30:22.040
has Loom by the way. I don't know why Captain Lance has Loom. It's an early Loom.

04:30:22.040 --> 04:30:26.040
Maybe he got a slightly house or something? Maybe?

04:30:26.040 --> 04:30:28.040
I don't know.

04:30:28.040 --> 04:30:35.520
Either the Loom is like a thousand years late, or it's like three minutes early, but I'd

04:30:35.520 --> 04:30:38.320
Rather it would be early than late, all things considered.

04:30:38.320 --> 04:30:39.440
If they get the loom early,

04:30:39.440 --> 04:30:42.960
he's gonna be having a decent dark age here with the Koreans.

04:30:42.960 --> 04:30:45.160
Their main strategy, I guess,

04:30:45.160 --> 04:30:47.440
is just trying to spam out wood costing units.

04:30:47.440 --> 04:30:49.600
They get wood, all wood units for the Koreans

04:30:49.600 --> 04:30:51.760
are 50% cheaper, that's quite significant.

04:30:51.760 --> 04:30:54.600
So we're thinking spearmen, skirmishers,

04:30:54.600 --> 04:30:57.120
manganelles, scorpions, all kinds of siege.

04:30:57.960 --> 04:30:59.960
Oh, did they get the bonus on siege?

04:31:01.600 --> 04:31:02.440
Oh, Koreans?

04:31:02.440 --> 04:31:04.960
No, no, no, only rain soldiers and infantry.

04:31:04.960 --> 04:31:07.520
So sorry, we're gonna start the list in the top.

04:31:07.520 --> 04:31:12.520
Spearman, skirmishers, fire Lancers, archers, cav archers.

04:31:13.320 --> 04:31:16.400
No siege, but everything else gets a wood discount.

04:31:16.400 --> 04:31:17.760
That's kind of like the main approach.

04:31:17.760 --> 04:31:19.720
But you also get nice towers for Koreans.

04:31:19.720 --> 04:31:21.520
You get a nice stone mining bonus.

04:31:21.520 --> 04:31:23.200
And it's worth talking about.

04:31:23.200 --> 04:31:26.120
You get a nice unique unit, the War Wagon.

04:31:26.120 --> 04:31:27.400
So keep that in mind.

04:31:27.400 --> 04:31:29.920
If you do see the War Wagon, it's a very powerful unit.

04:31:29.920 --> 04:31:31.760
What do you make of this Korean spec here?

04:31:31.760 --> 04:31:34.520
It's something that we haven't seen before, Danila.

04:31:34.960 --> 04:31:41.960
I think this is going to be some sort of phosphor rush and with Koreans you can do a lot of them you can either

04:31:41.960 --> 04:31:50.960
go for FC castle drop. Yeah. In your base I see that stone in the back of his base. I don't know if he's

04:31:50.960 --> 04:31:59.960
cutted it. That could work. He has a very good map for a phosphor rule. Yeah, back gold. Yeah, back gold, back stone.

04:31:59.960 --> 04:32:07.460
And speaking about gold, you could go for another fossil rush into Fire Lancers.

04:32:07.460 --> 04:32:20.960
Yeah, true. You can go like Fast Castle and instead of going for the Castle Drop, which is like the more predictable Fast Castle, the more typical Fast Castle, you can just go to Barrick Fire Lancers.

04:32:20.960 --> 04:32:25.760
This is a strategy that I put a lot of time into, like, when the finalists first came out,

04:32:25.760 --> 04:32:30.560
oh, it's just fast, castle, Fire Lancer, every single game was so fun, and it's a really,

04:32:30.560 --> 04:32:34.960
really powerful strategy. We're positive because Pig wants to check the Tech Tree.

04:32:34.960 --> 04:32:39.120
Haven't played vs Korea in 150 games. Wow, first time vs Korea, that's crazy.

04:32:40.320 --> 04:32:48.240
Oh, do you think that also has some sort of factor, you know, like, not knowing that you're

04:32:48.240 --> 04:32:54.760
playing against not knowing that they can't throw it to I think so yeah like

04:32:54.760 --> 04:32:58.160
not being familiar with the sieve it's so painful because like you can read the

04:32:58.160 --> 04:33:02.200
bonuses but like reading the bonuses it's kind of like if you read the physics

04:33:02.200 --> 04:33:05.160
formulas before your exam but you studied nothing like yeah you have the

04:33:05.160 --> 04:33:08.760
formulas but you don't know how to use them and that's kind of what we see here

04:33:08.760 --> 04:33:12.060
it's like I say you're gonna read what Koreans can do now what now you gotta

04:33:12.060 --> 04:33:16.280
figure out how to play against the sieve from a guy who's captain Lance who's

04:33:16.280 --> 04:33:20.840
He's really really intelligent with what he goes for and who's got such a deep arsenal

04:33:20.840 --> 04:33:23.000
of strategies that he can bring to the table.

04:33:23.000 --> 04:33:27.080
I feel like it's a big disadvantage for Pig but he does have the Chinese and he's very

04:33:27.080 --> 04:33:32.000
familiar with those guys so at least he knows what he's doing which is good.

04:33:32.000 --> 04:33:39.280
Yeah I think another thing that I was saying yesterday in Pig's matchup when I was casting

04:33:39.280 --> 04:33:44.160
is that I also kind of admire the just straight up going for the Chinese Pig.

04:33:44.160 --> 04:33:47.200
Chinese is one of the pro's favorite sieve.

04:33:47.200 --> 04:33:55.640
I find it weird to play for people, especially for people that are just learning the game.

04:33:55.640 --> 04:34:00.160
You start with six villagers, but with zero food in the bank, their start is weird, you

04:34:00.160 --> 04:34:09.600
have to pay attention on how you use their bonuses, they get technology discounts.

04:34:09.600 --> 04:34:12.000
I find them weird to get into.

04:34:12.000 --> 04:34:14.420
I was impressed to see him play in Chinese yesterday.

04:34:16.580 --> 04:34:18.120
Let's see how this matchup is going to go.

04:34:18.120 --> 04:34:20.480
Yeah, I actually agree with you in principle, Danila.

04:34:20.480 --> 04:34:23.200
Like I think weird starts, they also get like,

04:34:23.200 --> 04:34:25.280
none of their bonuses are that insane.

04:34:25.280 --> 04:34:27.680
Like Chinese is the kind of stuff that gets ahead a little bit.

04:34:27.680 --> 04:34:29.880
It's like, it's the king of like,

04:34:29.880 --> 04:34:31.160
I mean, you guys are RTS fans, you know,

04:34:31.160 --> 04:34:32.700
like the RTS theory where it's like,

04:34:32.700 --> 04:34:35.240
get ahead then keep getting slowly more and more ahead

04:34:35.240 --> 04:34:37.320
until you build up like all these little advantages

04:34:37.320 --> 04:34:39.520
into a big advantage in like 30 minutes.

04:34:39.520 --> 04:34:40.880
That's what Chinese does.

04:34:40.880 --> 04:34:43.080
That's why, for pro players, we love that.

04:34:43.080 --> 04:34:44.720
It's like, oh, we're just building up small advantages.

04:34:44.720 --> 04:34:46.640
We're so confident, we're so comfortable.

04:34:46.640 --> 04:34:49.800
But in these kind of like mid-elo situations here,

04:34:49.800 --> 04:34:51.960
and these players don't get me wrong, they're very good.

04:34:51.960 --> 04:34:54.440
But there's nothing like that powerful about Chinese.

04:34:54.440 --> 04:34:57.160
There's not that one bonus for a unit that's like unbeatable.

04:34:57.160 --> 04:34:59.600
And that's why Pig has to play sharp

04:34:59.600 --> 04:35:01.600
and he has to play well and consistent

04:35:01.600 --> 04:35:03.040
to be able to get the best out of the sieve.

04:35:03.040 --> 04:35:05.720
And right now, to be honest, he hasn't had the best start.

04:35:05.720 --> 04:35:07.440
53 seconds of out of TC,

04:35:07.440 --> 04:35:10.160
only 25 seconds is usually acceptable for Chinese.

04:35:10.160 --> 04:35:14.480
anything more, it's kind of bad. So Pig would not the best start than Captain Lance up to

04:35:14.480 --> 04:35:19.280
Feudal playing a regular game, Taniela. He's just walling and going range. It's crazy.

04:35:19.280 --> 04:35:22.040
It's crazy that he's doing not anything crazy, basically.

04:35:22.040 --> 04:35:29.200
Yeah, exactly. Pig, however, is working on walling his map. I don't really mind those

04:35:29.200 --> 04:35:34.880
walls too much. He's going to open a range as well, not seeing him earlier on goal kind

04:35:34.880 --> 04:35:40.880
bamboozle me a bit I thought he's going to be a scouts opening but no was that

04:35:40.880 --> 04:35:45.260
an adaptation to seeing no I guess he just counted no no I think it's an

04:35:45.260 --> 04:35:48.840
adaptation to the walls actually so pick probably wanted to open scouts and then

04:35:48.840 --> 04:35:51.680
sees the walls and quickly goes for the archers which I think if that's the case

04:35:51.680 --> 04:35:56.640
that's really smart it's a very good decision to just be on archers or maybe

04:35:56.640 --> 04:36:00.040
even skirmishers if you see your point is fully walled scouts can't really break

04:36:00.040 --> 04:36:04.360
walls and running in is okay but it kind of a high variance play sometimes it

04:36:04.360 --> 04:36:08.880
works sometimes it doesn't not really reliable for a game five still with one

04:36:08.880 --> 04:36:12.320
actually vote from the Chinese start so pretty decent opening for pig even though

04:36:12.320 --> 04:36:16.560
it wasn't the best Chinese opening he's still ahead like the walls as you said

04:36:16.560 --> 04:36:20.360
Daniela and looks like we're gonna see a pretty basic you know standard game

04:36:20.360 --> 04:36:25.660
which I love I actually love this I don't know how relevant it is but when it

04:36:25.660 --> 04:36:31.840
comes to the main gold I saw pig has already put a house oh my god I was just

04:36:31.840 --> 04:36:42.320
I'm not a big fan of closing down the gap with the main gold because later on you will

04:36:42.320 --> 04:36:47.080
have multiple veils pathing around that gold so they're just going to be less efficient

04:36:47.080 --> 04:36:48.400
bumping into each other.

04:36:48.400 --> 04:36:53.220
But also you kind of leave your opponent's archers to get super close to your villagers

04:36:53.220 --> 04:36:59.240
to get three tiles away whereas right now how he moved that house a bit later on in

04:36:59.240 --> 04:37:07.080
back in the front in this case and fixing all of those palisades right now. Captain Lance's archers

04:37:07.080 --> 04:37:14.440
won't be able to to range all those gold miners which is good. It's still like a bit too close to

04:37:14.440 --> 04:37:17.720
the gold in my opinion but at least it's not touching it so you got a little bit more space there

04:37:17.720 --> 04:37:22.520
which is decent and I'd like to see Pig aware of these things you know just kind of play some

04:37:22.520 --> 04:37:26.040
you know some proper Age of Empire is make sure that everything's looking solid. He's baiting

04:37:26.040 --> 04:37:29.840
Taking a scout from Captain Lance back into his archers, which could be really good, Captain

04:37:29.840 --> 04:37:31.840
Lance instantly recognizes.

04:37:31.840 --> 04:37:36.080
I don't know about you guys, but from what I've seen from the Path of Exile guys, and

04:37:36.080 --> 04:37:39.080
it's really only Captain Lance, but from what I've seen from him, is that if there's one

04:37:39.080 --> 04:37:42.000
unit on the field, he's the best player in the world.

04:37:42.000 --> 04:37:45.280
Probably better than me, probably better than Bip, or like, one unit and the Path of Exile

04:37:45.280 --> 04:37:47.120
players are just like 1000 IQ.

04:37:47.120 --> 04:37:50.680
They never lose it, it's perfect micro, he's dipping and dodging.

04:37:50.680 --> 04:37:54.960
As soon as there's a secondary unit, it's like, oh, oh, he's just a regular player.

04:37:54.960 --> 04:37:59.200
It's just an interesting observation that I've got from the Bath of Exile guys.

04:37:59.200 --> 04:38:03.440
But anyway, Pig making his way towards the castle edge, just dropping some farms, a few

04:38:03.440 --> 04:38:06.640
archers, walls, and it looks like both players would do the exact same thing.

04:38:06.640 --> 04:38:11.080
Just a few ranged units, walls, into the castle edge, they're very far from each other, so

04:38:11.080 --> 04:38:12.680
that's why we're seeing a very passive opening.

04:38:12.680 --> 04:38:15.480
They both spawn in the corner, which is not always the case.

04:38:15.480 --> 04:38:17.520
This one is more of a passive Arabia.

04:38:17.520 --> 04:38:19.560
It's funny, right?

04:38:19.560 --> 04:38:26.640
Because usually, when you spawn closer to each other, then you see people changing their

04:38:26.640 --> 04:38:31.760
strategy and going for archer, or metatons into archer opening, because you want to

04:38:31.760 --> 04:38:39.880
hit those timings and do a lot of damage with what you call slow units, and go scouts when

04:38:39.880 --> 04:38:44.080
you're further away from each other, which is the case here.

04:38:44.080 --> 04:38:49.520
We've seen a lot of Scouts opening and now we see Archer opening, which I think is a bit funny.

04:38:50.080 --> 04:38:51.200
Yeah, it's really interesting.

04:38:51.200 --> 04:38:53.440
To have an Archery-Archer War.

04:38:54.000 --> 04:38:57.680
It doesn't have to stay Archery-Archer forever, by the way.

04:38:57.680 --> 04:39:00.320
It could easily switch from the skirmishers to anyone besides that.

04:39:00.320 --> 04:39:03.360
I can Captain Lance give a good micro to that Scout.

04:39:03.360 --> 04:39:10.080
I'd actually rather the Chinese players switch off Archers, but I'm not entirely sure.

04:39:10.080 --> 04:39:17.780
Because the theory is, if you just play archery, archer, up against the Koreans, they're gonna get cheaper archers, they'll also get the extra armor for free.

04:39:17.780 --> 04:39:23.980
Whereas if you just play skirmishers, yes the Koreans get cheaper skirmishers, but it lets you switch to cab as the Chinese,

04:39:23.980 --> 04:39:26.780
or switch into the Fire Lancer, which is better for you.

04:39:26.780 --> 04:39:32.780
That's kind of what I feel anyway, but for now it's just gonna be pig, going back home and waiting for castleage.

04:39:32.780 --> 04:39:42.780
I think this technically should go into a composition, sort of like Fire Lancer plus Skirmisher from Koreans.

04:39:42.780 --> 04:39:47.780
They're cheap, but like you said, they get the armor for free, which is important for the skirmishers.

04:39:47.780 --> 04:39:50.780
And then again, they're just cheap Fire Lancer.

04:39:50.780 --> 04:39:55.780
We could easily just see a boom here, Danielle, as well, like marking at the back, another wall.

04:39:55.780 --> 04:39:57.780
This wall is like very hard to penetrate.

04:39:57.780 --> 04:40:00.780
Down here, there's not really a lot of space to push.

04:40:00.780 --> 04:40:05.720
push, no crazy hills, I mean this one's kinda nice to push from, but Capulence is kinda far

04:40:05.720 --> 04:40:06.720
from that.

04:40:06.720 --> 04:40:10.800
But could you see a passive game where both players just wanna add Town Centers and boom

04:40:10.800 --> 04:40:12.000
to Lake Inn?

04:40:12.000 --> 04:40:17.280
If that happens, Koreans do have bombard advantage over Chinese, so Koreans have gunpowder, Chinese,

04:40:17.280 --> 04:40:21.080
I think despite inventing gunpowder in real life, don't get access to any gunpowder units

04:40:21.080 --> 04:40:23.080
in game, which is kind of interesting.

04:40:23.080 --> 04:40:31.840
I was going to make a joke here, but I didn't want to throw Yamato under the buzzer.

04:40:31.840 --> 04:40:33.640
He said the Norwegian invented it.

04:40:33.640 --> 04:40:35.840
He said the Norwegian invented the gunpowder?

04:40:35.840 --> 04:40:36.840
Oh my god.

04:40:36.840 --> 04:40:37.840
Yeah.

04:40:37.840 --> 04:40:38.840
Shout out Yamato.

04:40:38.840 --> 04:40:39.840
But Yamato's like that.

04:40:39.840 --> 04:40:40.840
He just says stuff.

04:40:40.840 --> 04:40:42.600
He just throws things out there.

04:40:42.600 --> 04:40:46.640
That's why we love him.

04:40:46.640 --> 04:40:48.640
You might be right.

04:40:48.640 --> 04:40:57.240
the amount of map they just walled in both big corners. First of all, if Pig goes for

04:40:57.240 --> 04:41:01.880
that approach, for the Bumi approach, he has some awesome TC spots.

04:41:01.880 --> 04:41:07.280
Pig, right? So you're thinking back here, maybe? Back here?

04:41:07.280 --> 04:41:10.800
Yeah, exactly, with the stone wood.

04:41:10.800 --> 04:41:13.280
That's pretty good.

04:41:13.280 --> 04:41:21.280
Whereas, yeah, we talked about, I mean, Captain Lance having the backstone, but I don't know about the mainstone being so forward, extra gold.

04:41:21.280 --> 04:41:27.280
If you can't really make a TC there, it can be siege pushed from the front. It's a bit awkward.

04:41:27.280 --> 04:41:31.280
You gotta be careful. You gotta be careful here when you place those town centers.

04:41:31.280 --> 04:41:34.280
Captain Lance, again, the one-unit scout, it's just like, perfect micro.

04:41:34.280 --> 04:41:38.280
Seize the archers. Are you kidding me, Captain Lance? This is a fantastic place.

04:41:38.280 --> 04:41:41.280
Seize the archers is kind of tracking them here as well.

04:41:41.280 --> 04:41:44.720
Well, Pig is trying to move out. He wants to get that crossbow botkin spike

04:41:44.720 --> 04:41:47.440
We've seen you thermal play this strategy a lot by the way

04:41:47.440 --> 04:41:51.000
You thermals like the crossbow king out of all the players in this tournament and

04:41:52.280 --> 04:41:58.440
Pig is moving out with the crossbows looking to find some advantage beautiful TCS from Captain Lance. I actually oh no

04:42:00.360 --> 04:42:05.360
He but he buys a stone. Oh my god explain what happened to Nella. Please do the honors. Oh

04:42:06.200 --> 04:42:09.360
So when you place down a foundation and you start building

04:42:09.360 --> 04:42:15.720
the actual building, you lose some resources and like we talked even about the castles,

04:42:15.720 --> 04:42:21.160
when you delete it, you lose basically the percentage that you had started to build.

04:42:21.160 --> 04:42:25.280
So yeah, even if Captain has just tapped that foundation, it was considered that you

04:42:25.280 --> 04:42:32.560
already started build that to see, which is 275 wood and 100 stone.

04:42:32.560 --> 04:42:36.200
And when he deleted it, basically he lost one single stone.

04:42:36.200 --> 04:42:42.880
Just it that's just enough for you to not be able to place a new disease. Yeah, so basically you have to buy a hundred stone for no reason

04:42:42.880 --> 04:42:44.880
So he's down 170 gold

04:42:45.560 --> 04:42:50.280
Which doesn't seem like a lot, but I mean, you know when you consider these already down 700 resources

04:42:50.280 --> 04:42:52.520
That's not the kind of trading you want to be doing at the market

04:42:52.520 --> 04:42:54.960
He needs to take investment advice from H rock

04:42:54.960 --> 04:42:59.320
But unfortunately H rock was asleep and couldn't help out captain Lance so he makes a you know

04:42:59.320 --> 04:43:01.760
I'm big blunder there at the market buys 100 stone for no reason

04:43:01.760 --> 04:43:06.760
I'll post on the side. I like this one, Lance. Getting some vision out here.

04:43:06.760 --> 04:43:11.760
This crossbow is just outside of vision though. Pig is kinda just keeping those there for later.

04:43:11.760 --> 04:43:15.760
It's gonna be a 2TC play and a Siege workshop at home.

04:43:15.760 --> 04:43:22.760
Looks like Pig wants to go for some rocket carts. Makes him move in, but Captain Lance spots it with the outpost. Good vision.

04:43:22.760 --> 04:43:24.760
I have a question.

04:43:24.760 --> 04:43:25.760
Tell me.

04:43:25.760 --> 04:43:29.760
How much crab did you give the achre for being late?

04:43:29.760 --> 04:43:33.160
No, actually, I was really nice to Hrock. I think Hrock's in the chat.

04:43:33.160 --> 04:43:38.360
Dude, I would love to sit there and rip on him, but Hrock, shout out to you, bro.

04:43:38.360 --> 04:43:41.800
You played like, obviously, you were late, but you were so nice about it.

04:43:41.800 --> 04:43:44.760
You reached out to Knoff, you were cool about the situation, you came up with the cast,

04:43:44.760 --> 04:43:46.160
you apologized multiple times.

04:43:46.160 --> 04:43:48.460
Hrock, you're kind of a legend. I'm not gonna lie.

04:43:48.460 --> 04:43:52.460
You played that one very, very nicely, and you didn't disrupt the tournament at all, so

04:43:52.460 --> 04:43:55.860
I didn't give him any shits. I felt like he did the best he could, despite, you know,

04:43:55.860 --> 04:43:59.260
anyone could sleep in late. Who cares, you know? It's not that big of a deal.

04:43:59.260 --> 04:44:04.640
We call him sleepy afer from now on though, but take a look at this back to our game here pigs in a cleared up

04:44:05.780 --> 04:44:10.320
Peg is getting you're not big time. That was that was a really really good surround

04:44:10.320 --> 04:44:14.240
I also bet he didn't expect that you see to randomly be there

04:44:14.240 --> 04:44:18.160
I like that captain as went for the elite skirmugrid

04:44:18.160 --> 04:44:26.220
He didn't bother to invest into the crossbowman upgrade since he only has five archers like those can just be mixed in

04:44:26.220 --> 04:44:35.020
with the skirmishers, just keep them cozy, but it's just not worth it for you to invest

04:44:35.020 --> 04:44:39.940
into that when you already have the counter unit and now you can reinforce the potential

04:44:39.940 --> 04:44:47.700
sneaky cavalry switch from the Chinese, you can just add in a couple of fighters or something.

04:44:47.700 --> 04:44:51.380
Captain Lance has like ants in his ass, he just can't sit still, look at this, forward

04:44:51.380 --> 04:44:55.820
villagers, it's like two minutes of moving, I gotta do something, he's gonna go forward,

04:44:55.820 --> 04:44:59.260
The thing is, it's the perfect time, you just cleared up the army, you pick up Crossbow,

04:44:59.260 --> 04:45:03.020
so Danila, I think he's getting them just in case, he wants to counter Fire Lancers

04:45:03.020 --> 04:45:07.900
and Cavalry, and he wants to make sure that he's able to not get cleared up by any units.

04:45:07.900 --> 04:45:12.740
So there's Crossbow on the fields for Pig, Pig also has two Rocket Cards, but I think

04:45:12.740 --> 04:45:17.420
Captain Lance doesn't want a Castle, I think he wants Guard Towers, which Koreans get for

04:45:17.420 --> 04:45:18.420
free.

04:45:18.420 --> 04:45:22.940
So keep this in mind, the Captain Lance could employ the Guard Tower push, but Pig is here

04:45:22.940 --> 04:45:50.380
with two rocketcarts you have to respect this.

04:45:50.380 --> 04:46:02.060
Captain Lance is going home like he missed the bus, like this guy, he didn't even stick it around, like he just went back home and for good reason, for good reason Pig is cooking with these walking carts, it's fantastic.

04:46:02.060 --> 04:46:08.440
Captain Lance has to run, all of these are weak and actually Pig is trying to cut him off right now, this is great from Pig.

04:46:09.440 --> 04:46:10.660
Dude, the mic was crazy.

04:46:12.060 --> 04:46:16.240
Oh, all the armies are gonna die, Lance is giving up on them.

04:46:16.240 --> 04:46:19.400
Oh my god, Lance got cleared up completely.

04:46:20.380 --> 04:46:25.420
Well, you were saying about those builds that went back like they missed the boss.

04:46:25.420 --> 04:46:28.740
I think they didn't even want to be on that boss.

04:46:28.740 --> 04:46:29.940
The heart wasn't there, honestly.

04:46:29.940 --> 04:46:33.180
They walked forward, but I can see there was no courage in those villagers.

04:46:33.180 --> 04:46:36.580
So they go back, tower on here.

04:46:36.580 --> 04:46:38.420
It's good.

04:46:38.420 --> 04:46:42.540
You can defend yourself, which is great, but it's not really the position that Cavillants

04:46:42.540 --> 04:46:43.540
wants to be in.

04:46:43.540 --> 04:46:45.100
I do like this tower though.

04:46:45.100 --> 04:46:46.900
These two towers defends the stone.

04:46:46.900 --> 04:46:48.140
I think that's okay.

04:46:48.140 --> 04:46:53.120
He doesn't get to keep Upgrade and Imp, but keep in mind that Pig, on Stone, can go for

04:46:53.120 --> 04:46:56.660
Forward Castle because he's got the full map control now.

04:46:56.660 --> 04:47:02.740
Which is exactly the approach that he took in the final game versus Grubby yesterday.

04:47:02.740 --> 04:47:03.740
Yeah.

04:47:03.740 --> 04:47:04.740
Yeah, absolutely.

04:47:04.740 --> 04:47:09.220
Go for the Forward Castle, and he had to fast and prepare with it as well.

04:47:09.220 --> 04:47:11.380
Pig, Pig, there's a tower, okay?

04:47:11.380 --> 04:47:12.380
You could dive it.

04:47:12.380 --> 04:47:16.660
I mean, you know, it's not illegal, but it is somewhat risky, University being dropped

04:47:16.660 --> 04:47:22.580
down for Captain Lance now looking to maybe attack into ballistics. Did Pig get any coaching

04:47:22.580 --> 04:47:28.900
from Lewis? I think he did. I think he did. Or no, I think that might have been day nine

04:47:28.900 --> 04:47:34.880
actually. No, I think it's mainly been survivalists for Pig. Oh, that's looking at the second

04:47:34.880 --> 04:47:41.260
university. Oh, that's looking at the second university for Captain Lance. Yep. Drew, he

04:47:41.260 --> 04:47:42.260
He has one at the top.

04:47:42.260 --> 04:47:43.260
Yeah, that's crazy.

04:47:43.260 --> 04:47:44.260
That's crazy.

04:47:44.260 --> 04:47:47.620
That's a minus 200 wood basically.

04:47:47.620 --> 04:47:49.340
Minus 200 wood and we have 15 wood in the bank.

04:47:49.340 --> 04:47:52.060
We need those 200 wood.

04:47:52.060 --> 04:47:55.260
And Captain Lance, he wants to make his way to Imperial Leads but he's missing the food

04:47:55.260 --> 04:47:56.260
right now.

04:47:56.260 --> 04:47:59.100
By the way, you know, Ecobeads are missing for Captain Lance.

04:47:59.100 --> 04:48:00.980
He's getting them now.

04:48:00.980 --> 04:48:05.020
Pig is further ahead, like significantly further ahead, but I have to say, by the way, I have

04:48:05.020 --> 04:48:08.420
to say this, it's really hard to push Koreans.

04:48:08.420 --> 04:48:13.380
But even if Pig has an advantage, even if he comes from the castle and what not, I feel

04:48:13.380 --> 04:48:17.180
like he could actually throw into the Korean Towers and we could have a really good game

04:48:17.180 --> 04:48:19.220
on our hands, a very back and forth game.

04:48:19.220 --> 04:48:23.420
Right now it's 110 population each, Pig has the advantage, don't get me wrong, the capital

04:48:23.420 --> 04:48:27.540
line's position is very much playable, but pick up the list for the towers and the range

04:48:27.540 --> 04:48:31.540
units and he's going to go heavy on stone, looks like he wants to or maybe no, maybe

04:48:31.540 --> 04:48:33.100
just would, okay fair enough.

04:48:33.100 --> 04:48:37.560
It is the absolute same strategy just like yesterday.

04:48:37.560 --> 04:48:42.000
He clicked imp, 16 on stone, he's going to be moving forward the castle.

04:48:42.000 --> 04:48:44.000
Now the question is where does the castle go?

04:48:44.000 --> 04:48:50.240
I really like that hill in front of Captain Lance's range.

04:48:50.240 --> 04:48:53.160
Not too close to the tower.

04:48:53.160 --> 04:48:54.280
It's a huge hill.

04:48:54.280 --> 04:48:59.400
Your traps are going to be on the elevation, attacking all of those towers, all of the forward

04:48:59.400 --> 04:49:03.800
production that Captain Lance has there and it's just going to push him off of

04:49:03.800 --> 04:49:09.240
stone which you never want Koreans to be on just because of their pesky towers.

04:49:09.240 --> 04:49:12.720
Villager's coming forward. Villager's coming forward for Pig. He's got him

04:49:12.720 --> 04:49:16.680
pure late. She's got a fourth town center. He's adding in some barracks. He wants to

04:49:16.680 --> 04:49:21.360
go Fire Lancers which is a great call. Fire Lancers for Chinese move 10% faster

04:49:21.360 --> 04:49:26.120
I think in Imp. So it's a very fast moving very tanky unit. Missing

04:49:26.120 --> 04:49:30.560
gambesons though means that the Korean Arbalest could deal with them but here we go it's the

04:49:30.560 --> 04:49:35.880
forward cast so we saw this yesterday vs. Garby Daniela he nails the exact hill that you call

04:49:35.880 --> 04:49:41.040
out pig is playing as perfectly as the casters right now with limited vision limited you know

04:49:41.040 --> 04:49:47.240
understanding of where the hills are but looks like he's got the presence of mind to target

04:49:47.240 --> 04:49:54.920
the perfect hill and does he get it though does he get it oh there's some military but

04:49:54.920 --> 04:50:02.680
Three rocket cards now pig has to be paying attention to those rocket cars around the foundation of the castle

04:50:02.680 --> 04:50:04.680
Oh, he can kill his own castle there

04:50:05.120 --> 04:50:07.120
No, he'll be fine. He'll be fine

04:50:07.400 --> 04:50:09.400
always scary though

04:50:09.640 --> 04:50:13.440
Nice hits with the rocket carts the towers again towers are like offside

04:50:13.440 --> 04:50:17.600
They're not really doing a whole lot right now that main hill there is what pig wanted to target

04:50:17.600 --> 04:50:20.480
He's 30 seconds faster than him or not a minute faster than him back

04:50:20.480 --> 04:50:25.920
And he needs just a couple trebuchets all Captain Lance does a defensive castle, but he's down hill

04:50:26.200 --> 04:50:31.040
They the castle from Lance. That's not what you want to see. That's not what you want to see right now

04:50:31.040 --> 04:50:33.040
He's getting mugged hard

04:50:35.000 --> 04:50:38.000
Castle is going to kill a couple of villagers as well

04:50:38.880 --> 04:50:42.040
Trebs should be instantly in the queue there. They are

04:50:42.040 --> 04:50:43.040
No.

04:50:43.040 --> 04:50:44.040
No.

04:50:44.040 --> 04:50:45.040
Contribution first.

04:50:45.040 --> 04:50:46.040
No.

04:50:46.040 --> 04:50:47.040
Contribution first.

04:50:47.040 --> 04:50:48.040
He's a discipline player.

04:50:48.040 --> 04:50:49.040
Please, Daniela.

04:50:49.040 --> 04:50:50.040
He's not the kind of guy to watch a Trebuchet.

04:50:50.040 --> 04:50:52.040
He's gonna get his Contribution first.

04:50:52.040 --> 04:50:54.040
Trebuchet is later.

04:50:54.040 --> 04:50:56.040
He's got that discipline.

04:50:56.040 --> 04:50:58.040
That's lame for the longer one.

04:50:58.040 --> 04:51:00.040
I respect it.

04:51:00.040 --> 04:51:01.040
That's right.

04:51:01.040 --> 04:51:04.040
Now I would let go for the Trebuchet first.

04:51:04.040 --> 04:51:06.040
Secondary Hill though, for Pig.

04:51:06.040 --> 04:51:08.040
So great control of these two hills.

04:51:08.040 --> 04:51:09.040
Like that's really hard to fight.

04:51:09.040 --> 04:51:11.040
But Lance has cheaper units.

04:51:11.040 --> 04:51:13.040
I have everything's cheap for him.

04:51:13.040 --> 04:51:14.540
We're gonna see Ypsong come out.

04:51:14.540 --> 04:51:16.680
Ypsong gives extra range for the towers.

04:51:16.680 --> 04:51:17.520
Bracer comes out.

04:51:17.520 --> 04:51:18.780
The towers are not Keebs.

04:51:18.780 --> 04:51:21.680
And I've always found that Korean Keebs look so cool, by the way.

04:51:21.680 --> 04:51:23.420
Anyone in the chat agrees?

04:51:23.420 --> 04:51:24.960
I think they look so cool.

04:51:24.960 --> 04:51:26.080
And they're quite powerful as well.

04:51:26.080 --> 04:51:27.200
Free upgrade, Bracer coming in.

04:51:27.200 --> 04:51:28.520
Ypsong with the extra range.

04:51:28.520 --> 04:51:30.480
It's gonna be Trebuchets for Captain Lance.

04:51:30.480 --> 04:51:33.200
And remember, Captain Lance has bomb board access,

04:51:33.200 --> 04:51:34.360
but he needs chemistry first.

04:51:34.360 --> 04:51:36.800
It's a two-minute, 20-second upgrade.

04:51:36.800 --> 04:51:38.160
So he's working towards that,

04:51:38.160 --> 04:51:40.240
but bomb boards are really good in a Trebor.

04:51:40.240 --> 04:51:42.240
That being said, so was the hill, Daniela.

04:51:42.240 --> 04:51:45.240
Talked about the hill bonus, 25% more damage with these traps.

04:51:45.240 --> 04:51:48.240
I feel like Pig's in a good position to start pushing.

04:51:48.240 --> 04:51:51.240
But I've been paying attention to what you said.

04:51:51.240 --> 04:51:53.240
20 minute mark, Captain Lutz.

04:51:53.240 --> 04:51:56.240
Ooh, I don't have villagers forward.

04:51:56.240 --> 04:51:58.240
Oh yeah, there it is.

04:51:58.240 --> 04:52:00.240
There it is, the sneaky tower.

04:52:00.240 --> 04:52:04.240
Captain Lutz needs something forward, but he gets caught out by Pig.

04:52:04.240 --> 04:52:06.240
It's so funny, like Captain Lutz needs something forward.

04:52:06.240 --> 04:52:08.240
He always goes for it.

04:52:08.240 --> 04:52:12.360
And then the Cavaliers now, Korean Cavaliers are cheaper, not the strongest unit, missing

04:52:12.360 --> 04:52:15.520
Bloodlands and whatnot, but still pretty good.

04:52:15.520 --> 04:52:19.080
And he's gonna force a defensive Castle out of Pig.

04:52:19.080 --> 04:52:24.400
Yeah, definitely not a huge fan of those Korean CA.

04:52:24.400 --> 04:52:27.480
A couple of bills will die here, that Castle will still go up.

04:52:27.480 --> 04:52:33.000
The issue for Castle Lance right now is that he has no way of defending his base right

04:52:33.000 --> 04:52:35.360
now, like those trebs on the hill.

04:52:35.360 --> 04:52:36.360
He's going to be...

04:52:36.360 --> 04:52:41.280
of those. Sorry to cut you off, but that's a lot of those dying. I think you're undersold

04:52:41.280 --> 04:52:44.120
on that. You said a couple of those go down and the castle still goes up. That's like

04:52:44.120 --> 04:52:48.120
20 bills going down and the castle's not up then yellow. You undersold it. It's crazy

04:52:48.120 --> 04:52:49.120
to land.

04:52:49.120 --> 04:52:56.080
I expected to take to react, you know, to panic a tiny bit more. I was like, okay, he's

04:52:56.080 --> 04:52:59.040
probably just going to go back to it to see wait for some scurms.

04:52:59.040 --> 04:53:05.560
Oh my God. Why is Captain Lance diving? 3, 2, 2. We're diving with scurms. How did we

04:53:05.560 --> 04:53:10.200
get here. How did we get here with the Skirms? 10 Skirms just died for no reason. It's madness

04:53:10.200 --> 04:53:15.120
on both sides. Both players repairing the castle like it's their actual IRL house. But this

04:53:15.120 --> 04:53:19.240
castle is going to die first. The hill bonus, really paying dividends there. Towers though,

04:53:19.240 --> 04:53:23.960
still holding for Kamala's defensive castle. He just has to hold. He's got the two trebuchets.

04:53:23.960 --> 04:53:31.480
Yeah, now Rocketcast can go forward even. Well, needs to clear up the towers first. Towers

04:53:31.480 --> 04:53:35.080
are very annoying for Koreans just like you said keep for free already has a

04:53:35.080 --> 04:53:38.600
bracer probably doesn't have oh he does have upsung as well picked it up you

04:53:38.600 --> 04:53:41.640
picked it up you right away actually which is really good extra two range

04:53:41.640 --> 04:53:44.880
like eight plus five thirteen range towers it's it's a really hard to play

04:53:44.880 --> 04:53:50.080
against that caravan coming in for captain Lance that's gonna boost his

04:53:50.080 --> 04:53:54.320
trade card it's gonna make his trade cards move faster only problem you can

04:53:54.320 --> 04:53:58.880
only trade with your opponent in a 1v1 captain let's bite start trading with

04:53:58.880 --> 04:54:06.620
those opponents who knows who knows this pig even though this market is behind a

04:54:06.620 --> 04:54:09.860
palisade wall so he's going to have to take care of that if you want it is

04:54:09.860 --> 04:54:14.260
forward though you get rid of the palisade is just there where's the market

04:54:14.260 --> 04:54:21.900
market here it's possible caravan completed okay well pig can finish that

04:54:21.900 --> 04:54:24.060
castle now he can he can take a breather

04:54:24.060 --> 04:54:29.780
Cavaliers are out 29 minutes there from Captain Lance 30 from big but Captain

04:54:29.780 --> 04:54:36.060
Lance doesn't really have you know a planet it's a 34 military 18 our

04:54:36.060 --> 04:54:41.100
Cavaliers unit that I feel like you really don't want to be on it's it's not

04:54:41.100 --> 04:54:45.500
bad it's cheap in terms of wood at least but it does kind of sap your gold and

04:54:45.500 --> 04:54:49.300
it's not the strongest for Koreans but like I'd rather him have Cavaliers than

04:54:49.300 --> 04:54:51.940
have nothing but I'm you talked about earlier Danny

04:54:51.940 --> 04:54:55.220
Violancer is the perfect unit for Korean Zerat.

04:54:55.220 --> 04:54:57.940
Violancers are scrimmaged. Boom, that's your combo. It's really good.

04:54:57.940 --> 04:54:59.940
He does kill the castle though.

04:54:59.940 --> 04:55:05.740
Captain Lance kills the castle. That's a massive huge win for their Path of Exile community here.

04:55:05.740 --> 04:55:07.740
Captain Lance representing it beautifully.

04:55:07.740 --> 04:55:09.540
He's in diving. He's in taking out the trebs.

04:55:09.540 --> 04:55:10.740
He's in taking out the walking cart.

04:55:10.740 --> 04:55:15.140
Captain Lance is pushing Pig back and reclaiming the monster hill outside his base.

04:55:15.140 --> 04:55:17.940
What a play from Blue and what a pushback here.

04:55:17.940 --> 04:55:21.840
I only talk about how much I dislike those Cavalters.

04:55:21.840 --> 04:55:29.520
But if there's no counter to them, if the Skirms are all in front of his base, they're in the middle of the map, they're slow.

04:55:29.520 --> 04:55:34.780
If they're not here to protect, what were those? Five traps? Four five traps, something like that?

04:55:34.780 --> 04:55:38.480
A castle, the rocket cards, everything was lost?

04:55:38.480 --> 04:55:44.020
Yeah, but, but, Fire Lancer, Elite Upgrade coming in for Pig, because he's got a lot of resources.

04:55:44.020 --> 04:55:47.620
Okay, Catmulat's so smart, he rushes to that hill and puts a keep on it.

04:55:47.620 --> 04:55:50.940
He just wants to secure that hill.

04:55:51.840 --> 04:55:54.500
That's really good. That's really good.

04:55:54.500 --> 04:56:04.000
Pigs lost a thousand villagers on this castle. Does it even finish it? Oh my god. That's crazy.

04:56:04.000 --> 04:56:09.200
He also does have a nice little stone at the top as well.

04:56:09.200 --> 04:56:20.100
The line of sight for Korean villagers is just so nice to get extra resources when your builds are scattered around the map.

04:56:20.100 --> 04:56:23.100
because Lance is taking Pig to deep waters here.

04:56:23.100 --> 04:56:27.100
And the problem is, Pig has probably not played too many late games

04:56:27.100 --> 04:56:30.100
against Koreans where Captain Lance is towering everywhere.

04:56:30.100 --> 04:56:32.100
I saw a game on the ladder.

04:56:32.100 --> 04:56:36.100
Captain Lance played a 2 hour Korean game,

04:56:36.100 --> 04:56:41.100
and he won it in 2 hours with trash spam and towers.

04:56:41.100 --> 04:56:43.100
And he's doing the same thing.

04:56:43.100 --> 04:56:46.100
Of course, the time limit is at an hour 30 in our tournament here,

04:56:46.100 --> 04:56:50.460
here, but Captain Lance will drag this game to an hour 30 and he'll play the

04:56:50.460 --> 04:56:54.140
family if he has to. Score right now is neck and neck, second cast that goes down,

04:56:54.140 --> 04:57:00.140
Pig has 160 billeters. Hello? That's too many. Not according to Death Note though.

04:57:00.140 --> 04:57:07.620
Yeah, true. There is a couple. Too many, however, at any point if he realizes he

04:57:07.620 --> 04:57:12.220
could delete a couple of them. He has 51 lumberjacks right now. It's not that he

04:57:12.220 --> 04:57:17.320
would be floating a lot of food but he has a 31 idol bills right now.

04:57:17.320 --> 04:57:21.820
Yeah, you could just delete something standing around.

04:57:21.820 --> 04:57:26.620
Captain Lance 150 pop so he's got less pop than pig but like pigs pop is just

04:57:26.620 --> 04:57:30.980
this homeless villagers like unemployed castle comes down here finishing that

04:57:30.980 --> 04:57:34.220
you know other cast would be nice is taking into light cab beautiful tech

04:57:34.220 --> 04:57:37.060
switch into light cabs got tons of food I think light cab is exactly what he

04:57:37.060 --> 04:57:42.100
needs right now however however if Koreans if they get on fire lenses that

04:57:42.100 --> 04:57:46.400
are cheaper, the Fire Lancers from the Koreans will decimate the Chinese light

04:57:46.400 --> 04:57:50.440
cap so it all comes down to whether Captain Lance can can go for that Fire

04:57:50.440 --> 04:57:55.560
Lancer or not. I'm not sure if he really likes to play it that often though.

04:57:55.560 --> 04:58:03.440
I gotta say I love big castles. Yeah. They're all so good. One at the top to protect the

04:58:03.440 --> 04:58:10.560
raids at the top towards his eco. Just stop Captain Lance just pushing more and

04:58:10.560 --> 04:58:15.600
more with towers in it. On that side, one in the middle of the map, he did have one in

04:58:15.600 --> 04:58:23.200
the south that he lost. All on hills in great strategic positions. I really like that.

04:58:23.200 --> 04:58:27.200
Yeah, I completely agree with you. Even the ones he lost, like you said, it's like, they're

04:58:27.200 --> 04:58:31.040
on massive hills and yeah, he lost them, but he's not the right idea initially. And even

04:58:31.040 --> 04:58:34.600
the three that he's got right now, fantastic defensive castles for Pig. Take a look at the

04:58:34.600 --> 04:58:38.760
file on these guys. We're talking about Pig, like he's, you know, in the grave and we're

04:58:38.760 --> 04:58:43.160
about to show up this funeral he's 200 pop people covered beautifully he's got the

04:58:43.160 --> 04:58:46.600
fire lenses on the field fully packed he's making that like half transition

04:58:46.600 --> 04:58:50.880
only missing the armor and dude the Chinese 200 pop they have all the

04:58:50.880 --> 04:58:54.720
blacksmith upgrades available it's a good late game they mix all kinds of units

04:58:54.720 --> 04:58:58.680
and it's hard to deal with Lance has the towers but those fire lenses are a huge

04:58:58.680 --> 04:59:01.280
issue right now

04:59:01.280 --> 04:59:08.960
absolutely absolutely it's only um you know it's on lens to realize that he has

04:59:08.960 --> 04:59:14.720
to to switch on his own yeah you gotta go for it almost a year yeah they're not

04:59:14.720 --> 04:59:18.400
necessarily better because the Chinese ones move faster but they're more

04:59:18.400 --> 04:59:22.160
cost efficient they're cheaper it's easier to spam them he's going to SARS

04:59:22.160 --> 04:59:26.080
which is like dude Korean has ours are some of the worst has ours in the game

04:59:26.080 --> 04:59:29.280
like yeah you get the has our upgrade you're missing armor you're missing

04:59:29.280 --> 04:59:34.720
I think you can see even a husbandry. It's like they're so weak like they're not a good unit here

04:59:34.720 --> 04:59:38.240
And I feel like we don't have the food even to spam them out. So let's see what he can do

04:59:38.240 --> 04:59:42.440
He's mixing units. Well, he's investing into his towers by the way architecture to boost them up

04:59:42.440 --> 04:59:44.560
He got arrows that's to make them deal more damage

04:59:44.560 --> 04:59:49.680
And so it's mainly a tower focused strategy towers plus trash units from Lance

04:59:49.680 --> 04:59:54.000
I disagree think violences are way better, but he seems to stick to what he knows best

04:59:54.000 --> 04:59:57.520
But take a look at these pig raids at the back of Lance's base Pegas cooking

04:59:57.520 --> 04:59:59.520
He's got a 50 population lead

05:00:01.520 --> 05:00:05.820
There come the raids that those are so with Captain Lance doesn't even notice them

05:00:06.840 --> 05:00:11.340
No towers behind as well. No towers in the back to help you like no castle

05:00:11.340 --> 05:00:14.840
It's just he needs to know he can do the thousand villagers to these like you have seriously

05:00:14.840 --> 05:00:18.480
He finally realizes though good on him to recognize he's getting raided

05:00:19.680 --> 05:00:25.180
We talked about pigs nice castle positions. He just got rid of that keep

05:00:25.180 --> 05:00:29.560
The captain lens was holding on that hill if he comes forward the castle there

05:00:29.560 --> 05:00:34.740
I would love that because he does have the resources for it. He has a thousand stone in the bank. Yeah, so

05:00:36.100 --> 05:00:38.600
Yeah, I like that. Just push the advantage

05:00:39.720 --> 05:00:45.820
Yeah, yeah, and also now I go sorry I completely lost my train of thought because I went back to his base

05:00:45.820 --> 05:00:50.900
And I saw he still didn't finish the one and he lost a thousand workers on. Oh, yeah

05:00:50.900 --> 05:00:52.900
Yeah, this gas is still hot up, of course

05:00:52.900 --> 05:00:57.940
It would be funny if Pig wins this game without finishing that castle, but he didn't even need

05:00:57.940 --> 05:00:58.940
it.

05:00:58.940 --> 05:01:01.300
Pykeman now coming in with anything but Fire Lancer.

05:01:01.300 --> 05:01:02.300
Like anything.

05:01:02.300 --> 05:01:05.740
Captain Lance has invested into trade cards before Fire Lancer, ladies and gentlemen,

05:01:05.740 --> 05:01:07.260
just to put this in perspective.

05:01:07.260 --> 05:01:08.260
That's okay though, that's okay.

05:01:08.260 --> 05:01:10.260
I'm not gonna get too mad about it.

05:01:10.260 --> 05:01:14.060
Pykeman coming in just to help deal with some of those light cavalry.

05:01:14.060 --> 05:01:18.540
And those towers are quite strong, but those three Trebs from Pig, they're really exposed

05:01:18.540 --> 05:01:19.540
by the way.

05:01:19.540 --> 05:01:22.880
Just defend ourselves here a little bit and snipe those trebuchets

05:01:23.380 --> 05:01:26.680
Captains can buy some time bomb boards by the way. We talked about bomb boards

05:01:26.680 --> 05:01:30.720
We haven't seen a single bombard on the field for lands. I think he needs bomber cannons to hit the field

05:01:34.480 --> 05:01:36.480
She's gonna run to his towers

05:01:38.000 --> 05:01:40.920
Then like every strong in the has our yeah, Korean has ours

05:01:42.880 --> 05:01:47.080
I'm missing a lot of stuff hunt everything the last armor the last attack bloodlines

05:01:47.080 --> 05:01:53.640
So at this point for raiding you would rather have Chinese like yeah, yeah, like cap from Chinese are actually better

05:01:55.000 --> 05:01:57.920
Towers are good though. I will say like towers hold pretty well

05:01:57.920 --> 05:02:00.580
Mm-hmm the lances trade well underneath the towers

05:02:00.680 --> 05:02:03.240
But if you garrison the towers the lances will die

05:02:03.240 --> 05:02:09.760
The problem is though lances doesn't have the time to get to where he needs to be and take his pig is really pushing him to his limit

05:02:10.000 --> 05:02:13.040
Tower on the left taking down the towers. I'm sorry

05:02:13.040 --> 05:02:16.640
Like a treble on the left picking down the towers, murder holes coming in, 4 pig, pick

05:02:16.640 --> 05:02:21.720
up max 200 pops, spamming light cap and Lancers into your base, Lanc is getting out pressured

05:02:21.720 --> 05:02:24.200
and out templed right now.

05:02:24.200 --> 05:02:30.040
With the risk of sounding again very biased, but I just want to point out another thing

05:02:30.040 --> 05:02:37.480
that Pig's doing fantastic, he is completing more production forward.

05:02:37.480 --> 05:02:41.000
You have Fire Lancers, they're slow, he's coming with 4 Barats.

05:02:41.000 --> 05:02:51.160
I was expecting maybe castles on those hills, I would love to see even more forward actually.

05:02:51.160 --> 05:02:58.920
That's the way when you're pushing to just get more ground, get more terrain, forward

05:02:58.920 --> 05:02:59.920
production.

05:02:59.920 --> 05:03:02.200
Prevent your opponent from stalling as well.

05:03:02.200 --> 05:03:05.800
If you don't go forward production, you can take too long to finish up your opponent,

05:03:05.800 --> 05:03:09.000
you can hold stall and it can get messy.

05:03:09.000 --> 05:03:13.440
Lance he looks like in a rough position I have seen him hold from similar

05:03:13.440 --> 05:03:18.160
positions on the rank ladder race so while it looks good for pig I 100% agree

05:03:18.160 --> 05:03:22.040
with you I want a forward castle Travis to move forward more production you

05:03:22.040 --> 05:03:25.720
got 7000 wood you got some stone in the bank you just gotta he deleted the

05:03:25.720 --> 05:03:33.360
castle he lost a thousand bills on he needed that 100 stone here come on he

05:03:33.360 --> 05:03:37.240
got back like a hundred stone from that it was at like 80% oh my god oh my god

05:03:37.240 --> 05:03:42.320
It's okay at least he has loom at least he has loom guys. It's okay. It's okay

05:03:46.880 --> 05:03:48.480
Yeah, I mean

05:03:48.480 --> 05:03:52.620
It's gonna be harder double the population for pick compared to

05:03:54.160 --> 05:03:57.280
Captain Lance yeah, and it's been like that for a while as well by the way

05:03:57.280 --> 05:04:00.820
It's been like that for a while the only hope for Captain Lance are these towers

05:04:01.480 --> 05:04:05.540
But they're not really helping that much because the Travis are taking them down faster than they're coming up

05:04:05.540 --> 05:04:07.820
So there's less and less towers the more time goes on

05:04:09.460 --> 05:04:13.460
Pick is leaking a trap though maybe even leak another trap, so he's leaking some trebs

05:04:14.300 --> 05:04:16.540
Wonder if that will play a role at some point in this game

05:04:21.780 --> 05:04:27.560
Last armor upgrade for for the Halberdeers Halberdeers, however won't be able to

05:04:28.900 --> 05:04:30.900
catch up with the

05:04:30.900 --> 05:04:35.040
with a light cap rate and they're just going to melt first of all to the

05:04:35.040 --> 05:04:39.480
financers to the scurms to everything that pig is just throwing on the field

05:04:39.480 --> 05:04:45.820
he has 50 light cap in the queue 32 scurms 15 light financiers but how can you

05:04:45.820 --> 05:04:53.900
produce them when also villagers are taking a whole lot of space castle on

05:04:53.900 --> 05:04:57.600
top from pig not quite the forward castle we wanted but it does control two

05:04:57.600 --> 05:05:02.460
wood lines and doesn't make it messy for Lance. Lance is getting push heart. Lance has done

05:05:02.460 --> 05:05:07.460
a good job stabilizing on 110 pop. The problem is 110 pop is not that impressive and he keeps

05:05:07.460 --> 05:05:12.340
getting pressured and he keeps losing some towers. And here it is, Daniela. Here it is.

05:05:12.340 --> 05:05:16.860
Forward cast of one pig. Give it up for the Australian guys. Show some support for pig

05:05:16.860 --> 05:05:21.860
because right now he is one step away from being the first person locked into the grand

05:05:21.860 --> 05:05:27.580
finals. Nobody would have predicted pig. Maybe like 10% of folks were predicting pig to

05:05:27.580 --> 05:05:32.780
be the guy in the grand finals without losing a single set and he's done it in spectacular fashion.

05:05:32.780 --> 05:05:37.740
Lance is below 100 pop. I don't see a world where Lance can hold this. Gigi's called.

05:05:37.740 --> 05:05:45.500
Pig makes it happen. Wow. Oh my god. What a fantastic series. Honestly, well, well, well deserved

05:05:46.300 --> 05:05:54.300
to Pig. Probably one of the people that deserve the most seeing, you know, getting into all the

05:05:54.300 --> 05:06:00.620
new saves, all the strats, everything. Captain Lance absolutely made him work for you though.

05:06:00.620 --> 05:06:03.340
It wasn't an easy run, especially the series.

05:06:04.700 --> 05:06:11.180
Damn, crazy, crazy performance for Pig. You said it best, Daniela. Pig brought out the new strategies.

05:06:11.180 --> 05:06:15.740
He really tried out a few different things, but he stuck to some meta as well. I like that from

05:06:15.740 --> 05:06:19.500
Pig. You make sense of meta, some Bohemians on Arena, best save in the game, some Chinese on

05:06:19.500 --> 05:06:23.820
Arabia, best save in the game, some Vietnamese, a comfort pick, and then you have some spicy tech.

05:06:23.820 --> 05:06:27.080
You got them we scone arena coming out. We had the wool yesterday on Arabia

05:06:27.180 --> 05:06:30.960
It's a good mix of meta good mix of some spicy anti-meta

05:06:31.120 --> 05:06:37.160
But pig behind that great fundamentals great micro and great control of the map

05:06:37.160 --> 05:06:42.380
These are Viper castles. This is like every castle on a hill every castle in a good position

05:06:42.640 --> 05:06:44.920
But it must be said guys captain Lance

05:06:45.640 --> 05:06:49.640
great series really well played yet such a nice hold and

05:06:49.640 --> 05:06:53.840
Honestly, this last game could have been anyone's game.

05:06:53.840 --> 05:06:59.280
We had a little bit of Vils going forward, Vils going back, a few missed decisions,

05:06:59.280 --> 05:07:02.760
but he showed his quality, he showed his class, and he's still in the tournament.

05:07:02.760 --> 05:07:07.440
He just has to win against a winner of Grubby and you thermal now in the loser's bracket,

05:07:07.440 --> 05:07:08.560
which is your next set.

05:07:08.560 --> 05:07:11.560
Ladies and gentlemen, it's a banger after banger today.

05:07:11.560 --> 05:07:12.560
It's the final four.

05:07:12.560 --> 05:07:13.560
It's the four captains.

05:07:13.560 --> 05:07:17.680
Daniel, any last words before we move on to the next sets here?

05:07:17.680 --> 05:07:23.760
I think basically this series spoke for itself, it's great to know that Captain Lance still

05:07:23.760 --> 05:07:31.640
has a chance today, he is going to have to work harder for it if he wants to have his

05:07:31.640 --> 05:07:33.200
spot in the final.

05:07:33.200 --> 05:07:37.680
We might see this matchup repeated today in the grand final, there still is a chance,

05:07:37.680 --> 05:07:46.320
but for now Pig is just going to sit back, relax and just enjoy the game until it's

05:07:46.320 --> 05:07:49.320
going to be his time to contest it again.

05:07:49.320 --> 05:07:51.640
Hera, thank you so much for having me.

05:07:51.640 --> 05:07:54.520
It was a blast casting this series with you.

05:07:54.520 --> 05:07:56.720
And again, thank you Chad.

05:07:56.720 --> 05:07:59.920
Thank you for all the love and all the support.

05:07:59.920 --> 05:08:00.920
Thank you so much, Daniela.

05:08:00.920 --> 05:08:04.760
You casted like a beast today and every single day we've had you once a day and it's been

05:08:04.760 --> 05:08:05.760

05:08:13.000 --> 05:08:14.000
Thank you so much.

05:08:14.000 --> 05:08:15.000
You too.

05:08:15.000 --> 05:08:16.000
Have fun with the rest of the series.

05:08:16.000 --> 05:08:18.000
Take care. Take care my friend

05:08:18.360 --> 05:08:23.920
Bye-bye. Bye-bye. All right. There you have it guys. Daniela be sure to show short some love in the chat guys

05:08:23.920 --> 05:08:27.460

Co-casting she has her own channel on twitch you can check her out Daniela a we check her on twitch give her a follow

05:08:32.440 --> 05:08:37.440
Sure some love as well, but let's also take a moment to thank some of these huge sub gifts

05:08:38.320 --> 05:08:43.160
Asher baddie pals with the five gifted in the north for the 200 gifted. Oh

05:08:43.720 --> 05:08:45.720
Who's laughing my year? Oh?

05:08:46.000 --> 05:08:49.000
We were talking and they pulled us out.

05:08:49.000 --> 05:08:53.000
We were having a proper like heartfelt conversation.

05:08:53.000 --> 05:08:57.000
I'm just here shilling some subs and thinking some d-boy.

05:08:57.000 --> 05:09:00.000
I was here begging for more, you know.

05:09:00.000 --> 05:09:02.000
Guys, guys, you should throw more money.

05:09:02.000 --> 05:09:05.000
It's needed. Come on, throw in more subs. You can do it.

05:09:05.000 --> 05:09:07.000
It's almost 10k subs.

05:09:07.000 --> 05:09:08.000
Did you break 9,000?

05:09:08.000 --> 05:09:11.000
We broke 9,000. We have King's Gauntlet number two conferred.

05:09:11.000 --> 05:09:17.080
you can for a big solid to confirm KG to make some more than the chat and I got

05:09:17.080 --> 05:09:20.960
my two good friends oh different Britain at rock are gonna be even the

05:09:20.960 --> 05:09:25.880
tournament sixteen times the details sixteen times the players

05:09:25.880 --> 05:09:34.600
crazy I so speed gonna play yes mr. Beast will play mr. Beast is gonna play

05:09:34.600 --> 05:09:37.240
Age of Empires 2, it's going to be huge!

05:09:37.240 --> 05:09:38.840
HROK is going to see through this round.

05:09:38.840 --> 05:09:40.200
Give more subs.

05:09:40.200 --> 05:09:42.600
Yeah, how it is.

05:09:42.600 --> 05:09:47.400
Spiffing Brit, you have not won a game in the tournament.

05:09:47.400 --> 05:09:49.880
HROK, you have not lost the game in the tournament.

05:09:49.880 --> 05:09:51.000
You guys have a lot of comments.

05:09:52.200 --> 05:09:53.720
Yeah, we actually do.

05:09:54.440 --> 05:09:56.360
How well rested are you, Spiffing Brit?

05:09:56.360 --> 05:09:57.400
How's your rest?

05:09:57.400 --> 05:09:58.680
You don't want to talk, HROK?

05:09:59.560 --> 05:10:00.360
I'm just asking.

05:10:00.360 --> 05:10:02.280
I'm just wondering because that was my biggest advantage.

05:10:02.280 --> 05:10:09.040
Well, no, what's your advantage? The fact that you haven't slept at all?

05:10:09.040 --> 05:10:14.480
No, no, I slept too much. I'm like, I'm overly well rested. I just that's my

05:10:14.480 --> 05:10:20.160
opponents can't match that. Yeah, I suppose that is a good advantage. Well, in the UK,

05:10:20.160 --> 05:10:27.600
we currently have a heat wave. It's very difficult. We don't have AC, right? Yeah.

05:10:27.600 --> 05:10:33.600
It's very humid. Everyone is permanently sticky. That's life. You just get used to it.

05:10:33.600 --> 05:10:39.600
I would say it's been great, but I'm also not going to blame it for bombing out the tournament.

05:10:39.600 --> 05:10:42.600
Of course. We know it's a blame for that one.

05:10:42.600 --> 05:10:47.600
The Capon tea drinking for the temperature is 35 degrees.

05:10:47.600 --> 05:10:52.600
So basically, if you're having tea beneath that, it helps you sweat so it lowers your core temperature.

05:10:52.600 --> 05:10:57.080
tea is still good and hot weather, but after a certain point it's impossible.

05:10:57.080 --> 05:11:00.440
Wow, okay. That's actually good to know. I actually don't understand what you just said.

05:11:00.440 --> 05:11:06.600
You said it gets too hot to drink tea. Yes. Eventually you reach a point where drinking it

05:11:06.600 --> 05:11:12.040
can cause like heat stroke rather than low local temperature. That's got to be horrible for the

05:11:12.040 --> 05:11:16.600
UK and you guys can't make it through two days without tea. Yeah, the entire country

05:11:16.600 --> 05:11:21.320
grows to a halt when that happens. I won't lie. Just society breaks down, no one works,

05:11:21.320 --> 05:11:22.520
Everyone just goes to the pub.

05:11:22.520 --> 05:11:24.640
I heard your prime minister is resigning in one day.

05:11:24.640 --> 05:11:25.440
Is it the tea thing?

05:11:25.440 --> 05:11:26.440
Is that the...

05:11:26.440 --> 05:11:27.440
No, I'm telling you.

05:11:27.440 --> 05:11:32.400
He's going to hold out for like seven more days or something, because in 2016 he resigned

05:11:32.400 --> 05:11:37.720
on the 27th of June, and it'd be very funny if he retires on the exact same day 10 years

05:11:37.720 --> 05:11:38.720
later.

05:11:38.720 --> 05:11:40.480
I think that'd be very fun.

05:11:40.480 --> 05:11:41.480
But who knows?

05:11:41.480 --> 05:11:47.040
I think British politics is best entertained with a healthy dosage of satire and comedy.

05:11:47.040 --> 05:11:48.040
Really?

05:11:48.040 --> 05:11:49.040
Yes.

05:11:49.040 --> 05:11:50.040
No, it's good.

05:11:50.040 --> 05:11:52.860
actually keep the politics talking and keep the chat entertained.

05:11:52.880 --> 05:11:53.880
I need a five minute break.

05:11:53.880 --> 05:11:57.900
And also we had on the schedule at some point speaking, Brit, we had your exit

05:11:57.900 --> 05:11:59.560
interview, by the way, or your exit word.

05:11:59.560 --> 05:12:00.600
So you can start with that.

05:12:01.400 --> 05:12:04.400
You can kind of go get your food here and go eat.

05:12:04.400 --> 05:12:04.540
Go eat.

05:12:04.540 --> 05:12:07.080
Go eat bro.

05:12:07.080 --> 05:12:07.800
Go call grubby.

05:12:07.800 --> 05:12:08.560
Give him some tips.

05:12:08.560 --> 05:12:09.160
Go eats.

05:12:09.160 --> 05:12:10.320
Go do what you gotta do.

05:12:10.720 --> 05:12:11.880
Go reschedule the thing.

05:12:11.880 --> 05:12:13.040
So I'm late.

05:12:16.800 --> 05:12:17.280
Classy.

05:12:17.280 --> 05:12:21.600
Uh, Brett, so I want to say, I was on your team and I want to tell you an honest

05:12:21.600 --> 05:12:24.400
truth is that I was on my stream, we hadn't met yet.

05:12:24.760 --> 05:12:26.720
And I was like, I don't think he's going to play a single game.

05:12:26.720 --> 05:12:27.320
We're going to lose.

05:12:27.340 --> 05:12:30.680
I just said that out loud because I just, you hadn't played a game for 90% of the

05:12:30.680 --> 05:12:31.280
ladder matches.

05:12:31.800 --> 05:12:33.560
And so I was like, I guess he's just not going to show up.

05:12:33.840 --> 05:12:37.000
And then out of the blue over the hill, you rode it on a horse.

05:12:37.300 --> 05:12:40.280
You went eight and oh, you eight and two or something like that.

05:12:41.240 --> 05:12:41.600
Yeah.

05:12:41.640 --> 05:12:44.680
You got 1200 in the fastest I've ever seen a new player get it.

05:12:45.200 --> 05:12:46.960
And you catapulted us the first place.

05:12:46.960 --> 05:12:52.200
it was so it was I was literally so impressed so surprised and what are you

05:12:52.200 --> 05:12:55.880
gonna do with your share of the $400 a prize oh yeah I'm gonna try and make up

05:12:55.880 --> 05:13:02.200
for all the videos I didn't upload grinding in my wife was like well you

05:13:02.200 --> 05:13:05.360
know you want surprise buddy so I guess like we could celebrate or something I'm

05:13:05.360 --> 05:13:10.400
like I wouldn't get your hopes up I spent two weeks grinding in I have this to

05:13:10.400 --> 05:13:15.600
show for it yeah I got some math on stream I think I made sub minimum way I

05:13:15.600 --> 05:13:20.240
I mean, one third of the California minimum wage based on the hours played at $400.

05:13:20.240 --> 05:13:22.860
So that's okay. We can fix that right now.

05:13:22.860 --> 05:13:23.780
Thanks to our sponsors.

05:13:23.780 --> 05:13:24.400
Ray shadow.

05:13:24.400 --> 05:13:26.920
Let's do it.

05:13:26.920 --> 05:13:28.920
We should have sold spots on Harris event.

05:13:29.700 --> 05:13:33.560
That would have been like only our streams have the sponsors.

05:13:33.600 --> 05:13:34.180
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

05:13:34.180 --> 05:13:35.040
We get all the money.

05:13:35.040 --> 05:13:39.320
It's called a tourney brought to you by insert brand here only on my street.

05:13:43.120 --> 05:13:44.280
Yeah. I was super impressed.

05:13:44.280 --> 05:13:46.380
I mean, we're just, we're just bantering right now, but I,

05:13:46.380 --> 05:13:50.160
you did a video recently where you had like 4 million ads on one video.

05:13:50.200 --> 05:13:51.120
This video is only ads.

05:13:51.120 --> 05:13:51.440
Yeah.

05:13:51.920 --> 05:13:53.760
I thought that was so creative.

05:13:53.800 --> 05:13:58.360
That was such an interesting way to, uh, put a loophole in YouTube system.

05:13:59.480 --> 05:14:00.560
Did they end up banning that?

05:14:00.560 --> 05:14:01.400
Did they stop that?

05:14:01.400 --> 05:14:04.920
Did they, I mean, doesn't that like threat of life?

05:14:05.680 --> 05:14:08.000
Well, from their perspective, okay.

05:14:08.000 --> 05:14:09.880
They get a cast of the ad revenue as well.

05:14:09.960 --> 05:14:14.160
So as, as long as the advertisers are paying to have an advert to put on a video,

05:14:14.160 --> 05:14:15.400
They don't really care.

05:14:15.400 --> 05:14:18.920
They get their 45%, I get my 55%.

05:14:18.920 --> 05:14:20.160
Everyone's happy.

05:14:21.080 --> 05:14:24.980
The main issue is that there were so many adverts

05:14:24.980 --> 05:14:28.480
that it kind of breaks the like metadata of the video

05:14:28.480 --> 05:14:29.440
is how I describe it.

05:14:29.440 --> 05:14:32.840
So, okay, imagine you're watching a Twitch stream

05:14:32.840 --> 05:14:36.160
and there's so much data being sent to the Twitch stream

05:14:36.160 --> 05:14:37.480
that whilst you're watching.

05:14:39.920 --> 05:14:41.120
Can I wait, that lose you?

05:14:41.120 --> 05:14:45.280
Hello? Am I still here?

05:14:45.280 --> 05:14:50.000
Did they censor it?

05:14:50.000 --> 05:14:56.520
Holy, they got him, dude!

05:14:56.520 --> 05:15:01.360
Oh, I don't want to say a bad word. YouTube, I'm sorry. YouTube, I would never do it.

05:15:01.360 --> 05:15:05.320
YouTube, it's okay.

05:15:05.320 --> 05:15:09.080
This is a safe stream. We're here on time.

05:15:09.080 --> 05:15:12.200
If there's an era is going to upload the right amount of ads

05:15:14.240 --> 05:15:17.280
Holy you got King sniped, bro

05:15:30.040 --> 05:15:31.960
That is crazy

05:15:31.960 --> 05:15:36.840
Well, I'm excited if he comes back to castle and how you guys doing chat. I am excited for this set. It should be the most

05:15:36.840 --> 05:15:41.700
I mean, I honestly, I was gonna tell her this, but I thought it was gonna be the finals.

05:15:41.700 --> 05:15:45.060
You thermal grubby is like, in my mind, that was the guaranteed finals.

05:15:45.060 --> 05:15:46.500
It wasn't even a choice.

05:15:46.500 --> 05:15:57.140
So having it now is crazy.

05:15:57.140 --> 05:15:58.140
Captain Let's come back.

05:15:58.140 --> 05:15:59.140
Yeah, he might.

05:15:59.140 --> 05:16:04.420
I mean, Captain Let's could easily win from lower beats here, but I think pig's my favorite.

05:16:04.420 --> 05:16:05.420
Easy to say now.

05:16:05.420 --> 05:16:09.820
Yeah, I played a practice set with pig during the ladder race

05:16:09.820 --> 05:16:14.100
We just made a custom games and played and I lost so badly that I thought well

05:16:14.100 --> 05:16:19.420
If pigs only the sixth place on the ladder and I can't even come close to him. What's the point?

05:16:21.260 --> 05:16:26.540
The pig might be damn champion bro. Hey, pig was just the goat. He's so good

05:16:31.140 --> 05:16:33.940
Yeah, the pig graduated to the board

05:16:35.420 --> 05:16:41.020
need Ludwig and Gauntlet 2.0. There's one thing that no viewer ever wants to see

05:16:41.020 --> 05:16:48.860
and that is Ludwig in an RTS game. Please, you don't want to see it. You're begging

05:16:48.860 --> 05:16:53.540
for something you don't want to see dude. Watching Ludwig try to seriously rage

05:16:53.540 --> 05:16:58.260
in Empires, you'll scout, you'll gouge your eyes out. You play with Ludwig against

05:16:58.260 --> 05:17:01.820
Hera. I know and I only have one eye left. I have to sleep extra every day to try

05:17:01.820 --> 05:17:03.420
and get rid of the nightmares.

05:17:10.100 --> 05:17:11.220
Wait, thermal quit?

05:17:12.780 --> 05:17:14.780
Am I getting trolled by chat or?

05:17:14.780 --> 05:17:16.280
No, no, no, no, no, no, wait.

05:17:19.420 --> 05:17:21.380
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

05:17:24.780 --> 05:17:26.220
No way you thermal quit.

05:17:28.500 --> 05:17:29.320
Adam?

05:17:29.320 --> 05:17:31.320
I

05:17:32.560 --> 05:17:35.540
Got one guy could I give me mod I'm gonna pan that guy

05:17:38.480 --> 05:17:41.520
You thermals in jail check check jail find you thermal

05:17:42.200 --> 05:17:46.480
He's a bit more time. Sure. Give me more time. Give him 20 minutes in 25 minutes

05:17:48.600 --> 05:17:52.240
I'm easy give him 25 minutes no problem for me

05:17:52.240 --> 05:18:00.920
He needs a short nap that wouldn't be a problem for me

05:18:04.320 --> 05:18:11.360
Great what happened to your mic we lost you you were in the middle of telling us the secrets and you got a

05:18:16.700 --> 05:18:20.940
My PC crash it was too warm it's all falling apart here. I know it's your back

05:18:20.940 --> 05:18:25.060
I want you to know it's all falling apart. What happened? Why is speaking bit out of the call? It didn't do the I

05:18:25.820 --> 05:18:29.140
Kicked him out. I was mad at him. No, you got his PC crash

05:18:29.700 --> 05:18:31.700
This PC crash you thermals in jail

05:18:33.140 --> 05:18:36.060
Why did you throw my jail that he said it built to the map again?

05:18:39.340 --> 05:18:41.340
Authority's cracked down

05:18:45.300 --> 05:18:48.380
Really tempting to don't know what's different but we'll get him back in here

05:18:50.940 --> 05:18:57.140
It's good to be back. Apologies for dying mid-sentence. I understand it was perfectly timed, but

05:18:58.500 --> 05:19:03.380
Yeah, it's warm weather here and also my my RAM is slowly dying so I have to buy some new RAM

05:19:05.380 --> 05:19:07.580
$200,000. Yeah, and you ran this economy

05:19:08.900 --> 05:19:13.740
Yep, it was a little under a grand for just a couple of sticks of computer chips

05:19:13.740 --> 05:19:16.580
It's a good thing we made a hundred dollars resource place in our team

05:19:20.940 --> 05:19:24.020
He's down money on this government.

05:19:24.020 --> 05:19:26.100
He's lost money.

05:19:26.100 --> 05:19:28.220
It's negative.

05:19:28.220 --> 05:19:30.180
I'm going to be expensing it anyway to you, Harry.

05:19:30.180 --> 05:19:33.140
You're going to need to throw in some more substrat.

05:19:33.140 --> 05:19:35.420
I've always, Harry, can't afford the bill coming his way.

05:19:35.420 --> 05:19:39.100
Yeah, yeah, I'll take charge of it.

05:19:39.100 --> 05:19:40.540
I'll have to take a look at that bill.

05:19:40.540 --> 05:19:43.220
We'll talk about it off-screen.

05:19:43.220 --> 05:19:44.460
Yeah.

05:19:44.460 --> 05:19:46.660
Actually, speaking of that, I'm happy you showed up today

05:19:46.660 --> 05:19:48.340
because I thought we'd never hear from you

05:19:48.340 --> 05:19:50.140
after you kind of bombed out of the tournament,

05:19:50.140 --> 05:19:51.980
but you're back, back in a big way.

05:19:51.980 --> 05:19:54.780
Yeah, yeah, no, it was good fun.

05:19:54.780 --> 05:19:57.420
I mean, you might have seen from my conversation

05:19:57.420 --> 05:19:59.140
in the Discord, I think there's some accusation

05:19:59.140 --> 05:20:01.660
of smurfing being thrown around.

05:20:01.660 --> 05:20:05.100
Just fundamentally, I think the person I was playing up

05:20:05.100 --> 05:20:08.580
against, obviously on an alt account, way too skilled,

05:20:08.580 --> 05:20:11.980
don't know how they made it through the screening process.

05:20:11.980 --> 05:20:14.100
But yeah, also I'm just not very good at the game.

05:20:14.100 --> 05:20:16.340
I'm good against people who are bad at the game

05:20:16.340 --> 05:20:19.380
and not good against people who are good at the game.

05:20:19.380 --> 05:20:22.380
And I think that's a rule that kind of exists for everyone.

05:20:23.900 --> 05:20:25.140
Yeah, I think so as well.

05:20:25.140 --> 05:20:27.540
It's like, if someone's bad, you're good.

05:20:27.540 --> 05:20:29.380
If someone's good, you're terrible.

05:20:29.380 --> 05:20:31.460
Tell what we saw, but what about the King's type

05:20:31.460 --> 05:20:32.980
or King's suicide, I guess, from you?

05:20:32.980 --> 05:20:34.380
You just rendered King into the castle.

05:20:34.380 --> 05:20:35.380
We're not bothered by that at all.

05:20:35.380 --> 05:20:37.460
Oh, oh, but you weren't aware of this.

05:20:37.460 --> 05:20:41.340
Okay, so basically, Noth and I agreed in the chat

05:20:41.340 --> 05:20:42.660
before the game.

05:20:42.660 --> 05:20:43.500
Yeah.

05:20:43.500 --> 05:20:44.340
Noth and I had a conversation.

05:20:44.340 --> 05:20:46.220
I was like, we should meet with our Kings

05:20:46.220 --> 05:20:49.020
in the middle of the map and have a little kiss.

05:20:49.020 --> 05:20:50.380
And so that was the plan.

05:20:50.380 --> 05:20:52.540
And so I sent my King out and Noth,

05:20:52.540 --> 05:20:54.940
I think it was just so flustered he didn't send it out.

05:20:54.940 --> 05:20:58.100
So I was like, oh, you know, I hear for the King, it's fine.

05:20:58.100 --> 05:21:01.100
I just was like, fine, I'll send him off to go meet

05:21:01.100 --> 05:21:02.280
Knopf's King.

05:21:03.660 --> 05:21:06.300
And then I just forgot about it and he walks straight

05:21:06.300 --> 05:21:09.140
into the castle and died and that was the game over.

05:21:09.140 --> 05:21:10.740
So it was pretty messy.

05:21:10.740 --> 05:21:12.620
I won't lie, I wasn't expecting that.

05:21:13.540 --> 05:21:14.780
But then I was like, it's fine.

05:21:14.780 --> 05:21:16.060
I'm in the loser's bracket.

05:21:16.060 --> 05:21:18.820
So the personal face will also be a loser

05:21:18.820 --> 05:21:21.820
and they'll suck at the game and it turns out they're even better than Knopf.

05:21:21.820 --> 05:21:24.820
So that was the problem.

05:21:26.820 --> 05:21:29.820
I got the legendary, the most dangerous wacker.

05:21:29.820 --> 05:21:33.820
Oh yeah, that's crazy. It's a tough bracket.

05:21:33.820 --> 05:21:37.820
And I could think I didn't get the chosen golden boy Grubby,

05:21:37.820 --> 05:21:40.820
otherwise I really, really would have struggled.

05:21:40.820 --> 05:21:43.820
Oh no, he's the old guy. I'm rocking with Tig now.

05:21:43.820 --> 05:21:49.660
now. Yeah, actually, I think it's a really new grubby to be honest. Like he's a decent

05:21:49.660 --> 05:21:55.820
guy, but I don't know. I think he's just yeah, he's not been my favorite. Pig is fantastic.

05:21:55.820 --> 05:22:00.300
Let me tell you a little bit about Pig guys. He's from Australia. Great guy. Excellent

05:22:00.300 --> 05:22:05.660
players in the final funny pants. He does push up. He's so funny. I love a lot of cool

05:22:05.660 --> 05:22:10.940
things about pig. Team Pig is looking hot. Actually, there's been some upsets though.

05:22:10.940 --> 05:22:14.100
So far it's been kind of nice to see but you thermal versus grubby guys

05:22:14.100 --> 05:22:15.820
Let's get serious for a second. This is the matchup

05:22:15.820 --> 05:22:18.100
I think a lot of people were expecting for even the grand finals

05:22:19.100 --> 05:22:22.420
Bracket final that's we're way ahead of you. We already said this is gonna be the grand

05:22:22.420 --> 05:22:23.920
We all those give me the finals

05:22:23.920 --> 05:22:29.500
People we even bring we talk about this for for years and years and years and yes, it is you thermal V grubby

05:22:30.320 --> 05:22:36.340
Essentially the soft grand finals based on elo who's it's the headliner as you might say it's the headliner

05:22:36.340 --> 05:22:40.220
It is the headliner both in the same country

05:22:40.220 --> 05:22:41.580
So it's a Dutch mirror match

05:22:41.580 --> 05:22:46.740
But you thermals from starcraft grabby's from warcraft and we have a lot of warcraft and starcraft fans in the chat

05:22:46.740 --> 05:22:48.820
True that's a big match by the way

05:22:48.820 --> 05:22:54.780
The starcraft guys are insufferable when their guys are winning by the way and pigs already in the finals like if it's if it's pig

05:22:54.780 --> 05:22:57.420
Must you throw them on the finals? I'm never here in the end of this thing

05:22:57.740 --> 05:23:00.940
They already look down on all of us RTS players that are not Starcraft players

05:23:00.940 --> 05:23:03.140
It's gonna be insufferable if it's a double Starcraft

05:23:03.140 --> 05:23:10.580
I didn't do it. I'm all 17 of the starcraft fans in the chapter night. They're all here. Yeah, they're all here

05:23:12.420 --> 05:23:14.420
That's amazing

05:23:15.060 --> 05:23:19.240
Fantastic. Yeah, but two warcraft players besides me and a truck aren't here though

05:23:19.420 --> 05:23:22.900
You might have they're still playing an orc mirror in the ladder probably yeah

05:23:24.260 --> 05:23:26.260
90 minute game

05:23:26.780 --> 05:23:32.300
Yeah, that is actually a angle. I didn't think about this is definitely a starcraft warcraft showdown the team

05:23:33.140 --> 05:23:35.140
The two Titans of their game

05:23:36.460 --> 05:23:41.180
Yeah, sorry go ahead. No, let me actually no, no, let me finish it. You know what? Let me fit it

05:23:42.900 --> 05:23:46.900
Grubby the thing is the chat saying Grubby was a warcraft a starcraft 2 pro

05:23:46.900 --> 05:23:53.060
No, no, no, he wasn't he was like a 16th place starcraft player Grubby is a warcraft Titan

05:23:53.060 --> 05:23:57.780
He's gonna be represented the warcraft. We're gonna forget about the starcraft 2 career for the sake of this tournament

05:23:57.940 --> 05:24:02.620
He's a warcraft world champion. He's a starcraft decent player. Okay, it's different

05:24:03.140 --> 05:24:09.280
Better than he was a good starcraft player, but yeah, I get what you're saying. He's a yeah, he's a warcraft goat and a starcraft

05:24:09.980 --> 05:24:11.980
bracket filler

05:24:18.340 --> 05:24:24.220
We call it the brick baseline, okay, and you can climb above the brick baseline that's important

05:24:24.220 --> 05:24:33.020
But you know what, because I think Grubby is the type of guy who is just stronger with

05:24:33.020 --> 05:24:35.020
every loss.

05:24:35.020 --> 05:24:37.740
I would say I would be super afraid of him in the losers bracket.

05:24:37.740 --> 05:24:40.940
I think if he gets past you thermal, I think he makes it to the finals.

05:24:40.940 --> 05:24:41.940
I think he's like on a run.

05:24:41.940 --> 05:24:45.700
This is like the spot where he gets stopped.

05:24:45.700 --> 05:24:48.580
I would be afraid for Captain Lance for Grubby round two.

05:24:48.580 --> 05:24:51.780
I think it's still like I've got to go ahead.

05:24:51.780 --> 05:24:55.420
Just just before you throw us into this game.

05:24:55.420 --> 05:24:56.460
I've got a quick question.

05:24:56.460 --> 05:25:00.460
So of course we have this game, another game after it and then the grand final.

05:25:00.460 --> 05:25:01.460
Yeah.

05:25:01.460 --> 05:25:05.700
Um, and then tomorrow is there also then more age of empires?

05:25:05.700 --> 05:25:06.700
Yeah.

05:25:06.700 --> 05:25:08.580
Uh, it's supposed to be a kind of a secret.

05:25:08.580 --> 05:25:11.620
I'm going to ask it before the grand finals, but we're going to have a spicy something

05:25:11.620 --> 05:25:12.620
tomorrow.

05:25:12.620 --> 05:25:13.620
Okay.

05:25:13.620 --> 05:25:14.620
Cool.

05:25:14.620 --> 05:25:15.620
I have no idea what it is.

05:25:15.620 --> 05:25:16.740
Woo!

05:25:16.740 --> 05:25:17.740
Wow.

05:25:17.740 --> 05:25:20.740
Well, you know exactly what it is, do you?

05:25:20.740 --> 05:25:21.740
I know.

05:25:21.740 --> 05:25:22.740
And who knows?

05:25:22.740 --> 05:25:23.740
You don't know?

05:25:23.740 --> 05:25:24.740
No, I don't know.

05:25:24.740 --> 05:25:28.740
You haven't been reading my Discord messages, but I want you to be there, A-Truck.

05:25:28.740 --> 05:25:30.740
Oh, yeah, I'll be there.

05:25:30.740 --> 05:25:31.740
All right, cool.

05:25:31.740 --> 05:25:32.740
Let's put it in there.

05:25:32.740 --> 05:25:36.500
A-Truck, if you were, if you give it 100 subs in the live chat, you get to know the secret

05:25:36.500 --> 05:25:37.500
information.

05:25:37.500 --> 05:25:40.300
That sounds like it shouldn't be a requirement.

05:25:40.300 --> 05:25:45.140
That would make me down 100 bucks on this whole thing.

05:25:45.140 --> 05:25:57.140
Guys welcome in here. We have Gameboy from Grubby Uthermal. It's Vietnamese for Uthermal and it's Grubby trying to try and test it away.

05:25:57.140 --> 05:26:03.140
He's playing this on Redis and Force of the Four. It's one of his main civilizations. Talk me through the matchup while I fix these camps.

05:26:03.140 --> 05:26:07.140
Well I was going to ask you, we're not the experts on the way versus the Vietnamese.

05:26:07.140 --> 05:26:20.020
So, if I remember correctly, Wei is a faction based in Chinese history, that's probably correct.

05:26:20.020 --> 05:26:24.580
I'll tell you what I know about the Wei, is that Hera here, every time he makes a video

05:26:24.580 --> 05:26:29.700
about balance, prized to say the ways that were powered without being mean about it to Microsoft,

05:26:29.700 --> 05:26:35.940
so he subtly goes in the way, sure are strong with their tiger cab, I sure wish Microsoft

05:26:35.940 --> 05:26:40.740
would move quicker on this but I love them and he tries to sneak it in.

05:26:40.740 --> 05:26:47.020
Well you can tell he's seething, he's like so, so angry and his rage is clearly contained.

05:26:47.020 --> 05:26:49.020
He's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's so angry and his rage is clearly contained.

05:26:49.020 --> 05:26:54.460
So I think the way, I know they have a superhero unit which is Warcraft style, perfect for Grubby.

05:26:54.460 --> 05:26:55.460
And I know that they have-

05:26:55.460 --> 05:26:57.460
Sorry, they have hero units in Age of Empires.

05:26:57.460 --> 05:27:01.060
Yeah, they do, just the way, yeah, they're not even kidding, yeah.

05:27:01.060 --> 05:27:02.060
Really?

05:27:02.060 --> 05:27:03.060
Yeah.

05:27:03.060 --> 05:27:06.860
I didn't realize this game would become Overwatch. This is incredible.

05:27:06.860 --> 05:27:08.560
Is this going to become a staple now?

05:27:09.360 --> 05:27:14.360
Actually, it can create Tracer, so it's everything's level.

05:27:14.760 --> 05:27:18.560
It was on track to become a new thing into the game, but then they just made it for one DLC.

05:27:18.560 --> 05:27:22.560
So there's three civilizations that have heroes, one of them being The Way,

05:27:22.560 --> 05:27:24.060
and then nothing else since then.

05:27:24.060 --> 05:27:29.060
So it was looking like we're on track for every sip to have a hero, but no, it looks like it's just these three sips.

05:27:29.060 --> 05:27:34.060
What is the chance we see come out in this game today?

05:27:34.060 --> 05:27:41.060
I think it's like a 10% chance. It's good in late games that cost 1000 resources. It has an aura effect as well.

05:27:41.060 --> 05:27:46.060
So when you get it out, it's like a massive aura for the army. I think it makes them move faster.

05:27:46.060 --> 05:27:51.060
I think the way it makes them attack faster, all the units in the vicinity of the hero.

05:27:51.060 --> 05:27:58.060
But it's expensive at 1000 resources, only available in Imp, so it might not come out. It's the Cao Cao.

05:27:58.060 --> 05:28:00.060
Yeah, it's pretty tanky.

05:28:00.060 --> 05:28:03.060
It's like you think you can snipe it, but it's hard to snipe.

05:28:03.060 --> 05:28:04.060
Yeah.

05:28:04.060 --> 05:28:06.060
Yeah, interesting.

05:28:06.060 --> 05:28:08.060
It may happen.

05:28:08.060 --> 05:28:11.060
I wonder if anyone's going to do a timing push of some sort.

05:28:11.060 --> 05:28:18.060
I will say that the Vietnamese, pretty all around, super solid can answer anything type

05:28:18.060 --> 05:28:19.060
SIV, right?

05:28:19.060 --> 05:28:20.060
They're just good economy.

05:28:20.060 --> 05:28:23.060
The Imperial Skirm is like a perfect late game unit.

05:28:23.060 --> 05:28:26.060
Just answers everything ranged, tanky, strong.

05:28:26.060 --> 05:28:29.000
Yeah, I assume that's why you know, I feel like you thermals the most

05:28:29.780 --> 05:28:31.620
I

05:28:31.620 --> 05:28:35.100
Don't want to go into this use your phrase deep waters type person

05:28:35.100 --> 05:28:38.060
I wanted to be a normal standard game and then I beat you yeah

05:28:38.060 --> 05:28:43.380
I'm gonna do everything I can to keep things bog standard. He tends to play mostly archery units

05:28:43.620 --> 05:28:48.400
Like every step that he goes for is like an archer base strategy. It seems to be his bread and butter

05:28:48.860 --> 05:28:53.380
Here Vietnamese of course get tank your archers so they could definitely lean into those a little bit more

05:28:53.380 --> 05:28:59.380
Stephen Brett, you didn't touch a single archery unit, a single foot archer in your entire A-Wi-T career, I believe. Is that correct?

05:28:59.380 --> 05:29:11.380
Yeah. That is entirely correct. I mean, when I used Flegio Vampires to a long, long time ago, I did used to really enjoy Longbow as the Britons.

05:29:11.380 --> 05:29:17.380
But I haven't dabbled with it with this version of the game, and I don't think I will, because I won't lie.

05:29:17.380 --> 05:29:22.380
When I look at the micro of it, and I saw you coaching people, you would be screaming at them being like,

05:29:22.380 --> 05:29:28.380
well, first you shoot and then you immediately run at the enemy, and then you time the animation frames or something when they reload it.

05:29:28.380 --> 05:29:34.380
It's like, okay, it's a bow and arrow. What are they going to do? It's a new magazine, and then, oh, then you attack again.

05:29:34.380 --> 05:29:40.380
It's like, okay, do I want to up the amount of clicks I have to do whilst playing this game? Not really.

05:29:40.380 --> 05:29:44.380
I feel like I'm doing enough. And yeah, that's probably the kind of mentality that lost me the game.

05:29:44.380 --> 05:29:48.860
me the game but that's my perspective. It's crazy you say you're doing enough

05:29:48.860 --> 05:29:52.460
when you're like at 10 clicks per minute and you're happy being there which is

05:29:52.460 --> 05:29:57.100
fine honestly it's fine and the fact that you went to 1200 elo is a flex you

05:29:57.100 --> 05:30:00.940
can talk about the end of time like this is fantastic. Exactly, exactly. I won't

05:30:00.940 --> 05:30:05.260
touch the game again of where that elo is going down and look I'm a paradox map

05:30:05.260 --> 05:30:10.220
gamer I'm not a I'm not an RTS player but I gave it a good shot. I think it was the

05:30:10.220 --> 05:30:12.980
The fewest clicks to 1200 anyone has ever done.

05:30:12.980 --> 05:30:13.980
Yeah, in history.

05:30:13.980 --> 05:30:19.420
You're gonna get super pleasant to 1200.

05:30:19.420 --> 05:30:22.420
Not even a pro player can beat that, potentially.

05:30:22.420 --> 05:30:25.580
I'll do an open transport tycoon deluxe tournament.

05:30:25.580 --> 05:30:28.580
I'll invite you, Herod, just so I can kick your ass in the video game.

05:30:28.580 --> 05:30:30.700
I'm actually the best at.

05:30:30.700 --> 05:30:31.700
So there we go.

05:30:31.700 --> 05:30:34.300
That seems like it has less players than Starcraft.

05:30:34.300 --> 05:30:36.300
I'm not gonna lie to you.

05:30:36.300 --> 05:30:37.300
I...

05:30:37.300 --> 05:30:38.700
Yeah, actually, maybe it does.

05:30:38.700 --> 05:30:41.700
It could be the one game with less plays than StarCraft.

05:30:42.700 --> 05:30:44.700
Really big at the bottom of the barrel.

05:30:45.700 --> 05:30:54.700
Grab me up a little later to cast Lich here, by the way. It's not a huge deal, but it's worth noting that he will have more villagers due to Wei getting extra villagers from the Con map grades.

05:30:54.700 --> 05:30:58.700
But because Vietnamese will get their talents in his faster, you'll throw him a little catch-up in that will count.

05:30:58.700 --> 05:31:04.780
But overall nothing out of the ordinary no rushing and no all-ins. Looks to be a pretty standard, you know boom

05:31:05.320 --> 05:31:08.340
Plus maybe some rally control. I know Grubby likes to do that a lot

05:31:08.340 --> 05:31:11.640
Wait, I got a pro question to ask you that I've always wondered for a map like this

05:31:11.640 --> 05:31:15.020
Yeah, sometimes people get feudal and they slow

05:31:15.640 --> 05:31:19.040
They don't immediately rush to castle they get all the economic upgrades first

05:31:19.080 --> 05:31:23.980
Yeah, and most times people rush to castle first and then get you know, bid-axe and everything else

05:31:23.980 --> 05:31:27.920
Is there any re is there like a better version of the two? What why would you do one or the other?

05:31:27.920 --> 05:31:34.220
I don't I guess I don't understand the only reason you'd ever go fast feudal on this map is if you have a specific bonus in feudal

05:31:34.220 --> 05:31:35.000
Age that's really good

05:31:35.000 --> 05:31:40.780
The only sims that come close is like humans with a 2TC boom and then maybe Malay that can go really fast if you

05:31:40.780 --> 05:31:43.600
Don't get the economy upgrades and then turbo to fast imp afterwards

05:31:44.920 --> 05:31:50.640
But besides those two I would say like the fast field on this map is not really the play and almost everybody's gonna go for the fast

05:31:50.640 --> 05:31:54.160
Castle on arena. Maybe some other sims can do it, but not really

05:31:57.920 --> 05:32:05.420
Timing the fast dip. So, Steven Britt, the fast dip is a strategy that we haven't seen this tournament despite I consider it to be one of the best strategies in this elo bracket.

05:32:05.420 --> 05:32:10.420
Nobody's tried it. The timing on like something like arena, this map is a bit different because you start with extra bills.

05:32:10.420 --> 05:32:17.420
Well, something like arena, a Turk fast dip will hit at 20 minutes. So, imagine your point is that 20 minutes is in him. That's crazy.

05:32:17.420 --> 05:32:22.920
That is crazy. And that's kind of thing that, well, you could kind of pull that off reliably.

05:32:22.920 --> 05:32:30.440
Yeah, it's super reliable. It's just one builder not to show the page on but I have it color-coded PDF plus video tutorial if anyone's interested

05:32:30.440 --> 05:32:32.560
But it's one build very consistent

05:32:32.560 --> 05:32:38.320
You get a gunpowder right away at 20 minutes, and then you all then push in imp with bomb art than hand cannon year. It's so strong

05:32:39.360 --> 05:32:41.360
Nice

05:32:42.480 --> 05:32:48.840
And the reason they all fast castle is because they nothing beats another town center for economy booming. Yeah, right?

05:32:48.840 --> 05:32:52.740
That's exactly like like this guy here. You thermal three TC boom

05:32:52.740 --> 05:32:56.200
He caught it kind of upgrades coming in come in cheaper for the Vietnamese

05:32:56.200 --> 05:33:01.160
This is fantastic for him. Grubby also doing the same three counts in a boom and you know

05:33:01.160 --> 05:33:05.040
They're both enjoying some nice extra villagers if anyone does anything other than this

05:33:05.160 --> 05:33:10.880
You have to have some kind of all in or something that would counter the boom very difficult to do that though

05:33:11.840 --> 05:33:16.760
So my coach told me built a single TC in my entire time playing

05:33:16.760 --> 05:33:21.760
But I did explain the reason why you would want a second TC to my wife.

05:33:21.760 --> 05:33:23.760
So I understand it.

05:33:23.760 --> 05:33:24.760
That counts.

05:33:24.760 --> 05:33:25.760
That counts.

05:33:25.760 --> 05:33:26.760
You understand the theory.

05:33:26.760 --> 05:33:27.760
Yeah.

05:33:27.760 --> 05:33:29.760
It doesn't mean I follow it.

05:33:29.760 --> 05:33:31.760
How did that combo come up with your wife?

05:33:31.760 --> 05:33:33.760
That's pretty interesting.

05:33:33.760 --> 05:33:39.760
It's perfectly normal to be in the bedroom and sit down and talk Age of Empires theory.

05:33:39.760 --> 05:33:40.760
I'm sure you do the same.

05:33:40.760 --> 05:33:42.760
Age of Empires economic theory.

05:33:42.760 --> 05:33:48.760
Those late night grubby talks we did dabble into some town centres, that's true, but...

05:33:48.760 --> 05:33:54.760
Hot and spicy villager booms at 11pm.

05:33:54.760 --> 05:33:58.760
I love how that's your late night at 11pm.

05:33:58.760 --> 05:34:05.760
Come on, I'm not a full-time streamer like you guys. I can stream for like two hours other than I'm tired and I just want to go to bed.

05:34:05.760 --> 05:34:08.760
Actually, to be fair, I don't think your streaming stamina is much better.

05:34:08.760 --> 05:34:13.760
better. You can stream for 15 minutes then you need a snack break. We're all working.

05:34:13.760 --> 05:34:19.760
We all have our deficiencies, that's for sure. Back to Arcane here real quick. We have

05:34:19.760 --> 05:34:23.640
Grevy going out for the relics and he seems to be the one guy doing this consistently,

05:34:23.640 --> 05:34:27.320
but the reason why I like his approach now is that he kind of knows that Uthermal is

05:34:27.320 --> 05:34:31.760
not the kind of guy that likes to commit to the relics. He sees Uthermal booming on every

05:34:31.760 --> 05:34:37.000
map. Grevy's going to snag the relics without making too many tire caps. It's a low investment

05:34:37.000 --> 05:34:40.540
relic snag which a truck your economic or economic sir

05:34:40.540 --> 05:34:44.140
you have a youtube channel about economy that's pretty good right

05:34:44.140 --> 05:34:47.580
free gold is good that's right that's correct that the economy will tell you

05:34:47.580 --> 05:34:48.200
that

05:34:48.200 --> 05:34:50.440
i would say from economy p o v

05:34:50.440 --> 05:34:52.680
since both these guys are kind of

05:34:52.680 --> 05:34:55.160
boom players they both like

05:34:55.160 --> 05:34:57.980
getting the late game i would have thought one of them would have pushed

05:34:57.980 --> 05:34:59.880
four tcs to try and

05:34:59.880 --> 05:35:03.800
to try and get the one up on the other knowing they're not going to get rushed

05:35:03.800 --> 05:35:09.800
I would have thought he would have seen a 4th, yeah, I know it's coming, but I would have thought like a lot quicker than this earlier, yeah, I agree with you.

05:35:09.800 --> 05:35:15.800
I think you either go for the monastery or you go for the 4th DC. The fact that your thermal's got none, I think he's just an inefficiency honestly.

05:35:15.800 --> 05:35:21.800
He probably doesn't realize he's making that misplay in a pro level for sure the 4th DC is already there or the monastery.

05:35:21.800 --> 05:35:26.800
It's like doing nothing, doing neither of those two things is just setting yourself far further behind.

05:35:26.800 --> 05:35:33.400
But he does have one relic that is 100% free, no way Grubby gets to that.

05:35:33.400 --> 05:35:36.320
And the other one is pretty damn close to him.

05:35:36.320 --> 05:35:39.200
You could have casted it right there, you got to be careful.

05:35:39.200 --> 05:35:41.600
Grubby spawns him with 15 months.

05:35:41.600 --> 05:35:44.400
Grubby spawns him with 15 months.

05:35:44.400 --> 05:35:47.520
Or he's the first one on Steel's King.

05:35:47.520 --> 05:35:48.520
He's on the way.

05:35:48.520 --> 05:35:49.520
I didn't see it though.

05:35:49.520 --> 05:35:50.520
He's so close to the vision.

05:35:50.520 --> 05:35:51.520
Can we get a pause?

05:35:51.520 --> 05:35:53.520
I think he's here unless he's crazy.

05:35:53.520 --> 05:35:54.520
Yeah.

05:35:54.520 --> 05:35:59.660
message crazy yeah quick pause give a quick call

05:35:59.660 --> 05:36:01.900
small call for the number you're cool about

05:36:01.900 --> 05:36:04.100
oh god

05:36:04.100 --> 05:36:07.700
uh grab just want you to know there's a couple of relics you have picked up

05:36:07.700 --> 05:36:12.900
he's got three so far he's got three so far I think he knows what the one up top

05:36:12.900 --> 05:36:16.180
but he doesn't we really need this call to come through so yeah your thermal

05:36:16.180 --> 05:36:19.100
might just stack two in the end here's the fourth you see we're talking about

05:36:19.100 --> 05:36:22.820
not the best position this woodlands already kind of saturated eight is

05:36:22.820 --> 05:36:27.660
saturation we got how much we got 20 on this woodlands terrible I think putting

05:36:27.660 --> 05:36:34.300
all four TCs within the walls is a coward you gotta take at least some space you

05:36:34.300 --> 05:36:39.100
gotta get out there the idea that all four TCs your base can't live in this

05:36:39.100 --> 05:36:44.660
little wall forever but how do you wing thermal yeah you guys help for the

05:36:44.660 --> 05:36:48.660
Vietnamese to be kind of like out and about cuz like they make money from

05:36:48.660 --> 05:36:53.620
Lumberjacks, right? So you kind of want to be getting some map control on some

05:36:53.620 --> 05:36:57.220
tree lines that aren't safe. Yeah, that's a late game thing, but it certainly is

05:36:57.220 --> 05:37:00.140
something to think about. But even just like without even like the paper money

05:37:00.140 --> 05:37:03.540
in mind, just grabbing these extra minerals is always good. And like the

05:37:03.540 --> 05:37:06.380
problem with staying in your base like this, I mean actually it's a good point

05:37:06.380 --> 05:37:09.700
from Brett here. If you run out of wood lines and if they expand to these, then you

05:37:09.700 --> 05:37:12.420
get raided as you're just trying to chop your lumber, I guess an extra gold from it

05:37:12.420 --> 05:37:15.660
with paper money, then you're just behind for no reason. You're just getting you

05:37:15.660 --> 05:37:19.920
Getting harassed for no reason. So I like the balance approach of sending a TC outside

05:37:19.920 --> 05:37:23.560
I think grabby might go for that because his base is already completely taken up

05:37:23.560 --> 05:37:27.860
So if you want support DC, it's gonna have to be outside, but he seems to be happy on the three. I

05:37:28.740 --> 05:37:33.380
Will say the way this map is generated is what I've noticed from playing and practicing it

05:37:33.380 --> 05:37:35.860
Is that you have some gold in your walls?

05:37:35.860 --> 05:37:39.580
Then you have this big chunk of gold right outside your walls like your bonus gold

05:37:39.580 --> 05:37:43.340
Yeah, it's so nice when it spawns the way it spawn for you thermal

05:37:43.340 --> 05:37:48.220
Which is like away from the enemy in the corner nice spot if it spawns at the front

05:37:48.220 --> 05:37:51.120
It's like oh my god, there's gonna be a forward castle there. There's gonna be a fight there

05:37:51.120 --> 05:37:52.840
I hope I get it lock down

05:37:52.840 --> 05:37:57.760
I mean if you thermal doesn't like wall that off and like kind of annex that part of the map

05:37:57.760 --> 05:38:01.160
Is that just a catastrophic misplay on his end? Oh, yeah for sure

05:38:01.160 --> 05:38:05.680
I mean it's that catastrophic because it might not get punished and like if it does get punished

05:38:05.680 --> 05:38:10.920
Then yes super super bad because of how easy it is to wall like just a few houses few pieces snow wall

05:38:10.920 --> 05:38:15.440
And this is just super safe you get the relic you get the two golds you got a lot of space you get some wood lines

05:38:15.480 --> 05:38:20.680
It's so safe back here, and we see that's a great doing that like this this extending the wall thing

05:38:20.680 --> 05:38:21.880
That's a pro move

05:38:21.880 --> 05:38:25.520
Captain Lance kind of started it and players are falling into place doing the same thing now

05:38:25.520 --> 05:38:30.400
But take a look at this one from grubby. It's the vision game. He does this every single time. I think it's really

05:38:30.800 --> 05:38:32.800
It's really good

05:38:33.160 --> 05:38:38.960
It what's the counter to this what do you just build a couple horsemen or something go out and chop them all down like what it's so

05:38:38.960 --> 05:38:45.380
It's so oppressive you have outposts around you at all times and just realize you're playing with these your opponent

05:38:45.380 --> 05:38:46.880
That's map packs. Yeah, pretty much

05:38:46.880 --> 05:38:51.800
So like the council is just to actually just clear them force your point to send another villager and most of that

05:38:51.800 --> 05:38:55.060
What you'll see is that it's one round. It's one round outpost you clear them

05:38:55.060 --> 05:38:57.780
Your point is not gonna have the presence of mind to send another villager

05:38:57.780 --> 05:39:01.320
He's just gonna be down that vision some text coming in here, which is quite nice

05:39:01.760 --> 05:39:08.360
It's different Brit. This outpost is pretty cheap at one million dollars if you can tell me the cost of it exactly go ahead

05:39:08.960 --> 05:39:14.460
Okay, right if I remember correctly wooden wall is like free right so if I had to guess ten ten what?

05:39:15.080 --> 05:39:21.860
Ten what ten wood it's made of wood right? Yeah, unfortunately you're wrong. You just lost a million dollars. That's terrible

05:39:22.760 --> 05:39:28.300
Damn it. Well, hey, good news guys the price pool for the King's Gauntlet 2 is just massively increased

05:39:28.640 --> 05:39:30.140
It's up by one million

05:39:30.140 --> 05:39:34.020
It's up by one million. Thanks to the thumbs guys that got straight into the prize pool here

05:39:34.020 --> 05:39:40.500
You threw him on the road for infantry, by the way, it's 25 wood 5 stone for anyone wondering,

05:39:40.500 --> 05:39:43.340
so you're kind of far off there, unfortunately, but that's okay.

05:39:43.340 --> 05:39:44.340
One stone.

05:39:44.340 --> 05:39:45.840
Oh, 5 stone, 5 stone.

05:39:45.840 --> 05:39:47.340
Oh, 5 stone, okay.

05:39:47.340 --> 05:39:50.420
Also, Grubby stole the relic to the north of the map.

05:39:50.420 --> 05:39:52.020
Oh, yeah, it's kind of huge.

05:39:52.020 --> 05:39:53.020
Yeah, 4.

05:39:53.020 --> 05:39:54.540
He's coming in, that's pretty huge.

05:39:54.540 --> 05:39:55.540
That's 4 relics for him.

05:39:55.540 --> 05:39:59.020
He's also, wait, he's making a play for that bottom one, he's going to see it now, oh no,

05:39:59.020 --> 05:40:00.020
close.

05:40:00.020 --> 05:40:01.020
No.

05:40:01.020 --> 05:40:02.020
He's getting some harassment.

05:40:02.020 --> 05:40:03.020
You have a loot though.

05:40:03.020 --> 05:40:03.520
Yep.

05:40:05.320 --> 05:40:09.520
So in terms of like unit compositions here, let's talk about what players are expected to go for.

05:40:09.520 --> 05:40:15.520
He's been almost gonna open with some skirmishers, and he's also going for philancers, so skirm philancers is extremely good for the Vietnamese.

05:40:15.520 --> 05:40:22.020
They get extra HP on both those units, and on top of that they get the imp skirm upgrade on their skirmishers, unique to them only.

05:40:22.020 --> 05:40:24.020
So it's a really good comp and hard to deal with.

05:40:24.020 --> 05:40:27.520
And for Grubby, he's got a few options, but he's opening with a zanbe raider.

05:40:27.520 --> 05:40:30.020
Not the tiger cab, which is kind of interesting.

05:40:30.020 --> 05:40:35.940
maybe he hasn't seen your rents about how you know perfectly balanced the

05:40:35.940 --> 05:40:41.500
civilization is yeah maybe I should have watched more closely yeah wait can I

05:40:41.500 --> 05:40:44.860
ask so if you get skirm fire you've talked about this a lot in castings

05:40:44.860 --> 05:40:48.980
tournament is how strong skirm fire lancer is yeah and it's not something I

05:40:48.980 --> 05:40:53.740
see normally on the ladder so is there a third unit that you that you mix into

05:40:53.740 --> 05:40:57.860
that or is that just it that's the comp fire lancer attack move that's the

05:40:57.860 --> 05:41:00.560
Comp, yeah, a third unit would be like a Bombard Cannon.

05:41:00.560 --> 05:41:03.360
Of course, I'm like, this is very cheeky from Grabby.

05:41:03.360 --> 05:41:06.600
You're trying to housewall the gold, my goodness.

05:41:06.600 --> 05:41:07.880
This is why I'm riding with Pig.

05:41:07.880 --> 05:41:09.800
Pig would never do this shot.

05:41:09.800 --> 05:41:12.360
But to your point, H-rock, you don't need another unit here.

05:41:12.360 --> 05:41:14.720
This is the perfect combo on its own for the most part.

05:41:14.720 --> 05:41:16.840
And then you need like a Bombard Cannon in addition,

05:41:16.840 --> 05:41:19.800
maybe some Trebuchets as far as like a long range siege

05:41:19.800 --> 05:41:21.520
that really support that combo.

05:41:21.520 --> 05:41:22.960
And then you can either push with it

05:41:22.960 --> 05:41:24.360
or you can just camp your siege,

05:41:24.360 --> 05:41:25.680
both of which are good play styles.

05:41:25.680 --> 05:41:27.760
But here we go, we have a monk going to that fifth relic.

05:41:27.760 --> 05:41:29.760
So, H.R.F., you might have to eat your words.

05:41:29.760 --> 05:41:30.760
The greed play.

05:41:30.760 --> 05:41:31.760
The greed play.

05:41:31.760 --> 05:41:32.760
No, he won't get it.

05:41:32.760 --> 05:41:33.760
He won't get it.

05:41:33.760 --> 05:41:36.760
I bet $40 million he won't get it.

05:41:36.760 --> 05:41:37.760
Deal.

05:41:37.760 --> 05:41:39.760
This is the casters curse of the century.

05:41:39.760 --> 05:41:42.760
Has he firmly even built a monastery though?

05:41:42.760 --> 05:41:43.760
No, actually.

05:41:43.760 --> 05:41:44.760
Not a single monastery.

05:41:44.760 --> 05:41:46.760
We got sprayed and heavy here.

05:41:46.760 --> 05:41:48.560
Grabby's kind of outmatching him right now.

05:41:48.560 --> 05:41:49.560
No monastery.

05:41:49.560 --> 05:41:50.560
So he's not even concerned.

05:41:50.560 --> 05:41:55.600
And actually, Spiff and Brett, that wall that didn't come through, it's actually catastrophic.

05:41:55.600 --> 05:41:57.040
You kind of called that.

05:41:57.040 --> 05:42:00.020
Now he's got to defend this side when he could have just walled it and focused on top.

05:42:00.020 --> 05:42:03.460
So this is completely avoidable, your thermal is going to be split for no reason.

05:42:03.460 --> 05:42:08.380
It's so nice that this is walled right now and it would be so, so nice if this monk died.

05:42:08.380 --> 05:42:10.640
So my dothel is $40 million.

05:42:10.640 --> 05:42:11.640
That's crazy.

05:42:11.640 --> 05:42:13.140
That's crazy.

05:42:13.140 --> 05:42:15.980
The price pool is about to go astronomically high.

05:42:15.980 --> 05:42:17.940
It's going to be a big king's dollar too.

05:42:17.940 --> 05:42:19.940
Cosmet might have actually played.

05:42:19.940 --> 05:42:22.900
For $40 million he might still answer my T2C.

05:42:22.900 --> 05:42:26.420
For $40 million he might actually show up.

05:42:26.420 --> 05:42:28.380
Chemistry, Brace here coming in.

05:42:29.780 --> 05:42:32.020
I mean, it's a good combo with the Fireline Discreamer.

05:42:32.020 --> 05:42:33.340
It's not fully upgraded right now.

05:42:33.340 --> 05:42:34.380
We're missing armor.

05:42:34.380 --> 05:42:36.580
Crucial upgrades that need to come in for the powers.

05:42:36.580 --> 05:42:37.700
The story of this tournament, man,

05:42:37.700 --> 05:42:39.140
is people forgetting a couple of upgrades

05:42:39.140 --> 05:42:42.100
and there's army being a lot weaker than it should be.

05:42:42.100 --> 05:42:43.420
Yeah, and it makes it hard to cast.

05:42:43.420 --> 05:42:44.540
Cause you're gassing up an army

05:42:44.540 --> 05:42:45.780
and then it comes in with no upgrades

05:42:45.780 --> 05:42:49.180
and the chat's like, wait, this army is not that good.

05:42:49.180 --> 05:42:51.100
Um, actually, Harry, you don't know anything about this game.

05:42:51.100 --> 05:42:51.940
Yeah.

05:42:51.940 --> 05:42:53.740
And I'm just sitting there like, yeah, you're right.

05:42:53.740 --> 05:42:55.180
So they hit 130 Vils,

05:42:55.180 --> 05:42:56.940
which is about the time you're supposed to stop, right?

05:42:56.940 --> 05:42:57.780
Am I correct?

05:42:57.780 --> 05:42:59.100
You get around 130 and you start to, okay,

05:42:59.100 --> 05:43:00.100
now it's army time.

05:43:00.100 --> 05:43:02.220
So the boom phase is now over

05:43:02.220 --> 05:43:04.980
and now the endless waves of slaughter begin.

05:43:04.980 --> 05:43:06.700
This is the part where two good players

05:43:06.700 --> 05:43:08.860
start sending wave after wave of men

05:43:08.860 --> 05:43:12.860
to die in the trenches, to gain small amounts of ground.

05:43:12.860 --> 05:43:13.820
Paper money is in by the way.

05:43:13.820 --> 05:43:15.140
Better composition matters.

05:43:15.140 --> 05:43:16.140
Paper money is in.

05:43:16.140 --> 05:43:17.060
Everybody loves paper money.

05:43:17.060 --> 05:43:18.540
I don't know, everyone talks about paper money

05:43:18.540 --> 05:43:19.460
like it's the greatest.

05:43:19.460 --> 05:43:21.140
The chat loves paper money.

05:43:21.140 --> 05:43:22.700
Everything paper money is mentioned.

05:43:22.700 --> 05:43:23.740
Paper money!

05:43:23.740 --> 05:43:24.860
And then when you don't have paper money,

05:43:24.860 --> 05:43:28.340
Yeah, paper money. Yo, he's missing paper money. It's like a big. It's like the talk of the town

05:43:28.640 --> 05:43:33.260
They believe tiger calf coming out for grubby's and it goes double gold comp really making use of those relics

05:43:33.260 --> 05:43:36.360
He keeps getting right on the bottom. You thermal is but that castle will help a little bit

05:43:36.840 --> 05:43:40.880
Tiger calf plus jambi radar very powerful probably one of the best comps in the game

05:43:41.000 --> 05:43:45.860
But it's full of gold comp. So if grubby runs out of gold even with relics

05:43:45.860 --> 05:43:49.240
It's tough to sustain it. Take a look at this Brit. Have you ever seen one of these things?

05:43:49.240 --> 05:43:55.240
Attraction trebuchet, so it's like a faster trebuchet, right?

05:43:55.240 --> 05:43:59.240
It's a trebuchet that doesn't need to pack and unpack, kind of. That's the best way to describe it.

05:43:59.240 --> 05:44:07.240
Okay, well, I don't feel like that's necessarily too much of an advantage from my brain's perspective.

05:44:07.240 --> 05:44:12.240
But I'm sure maybe you think it's the greatest unit in the game.

05:44:12.240 --> 05:44:16.240
No, actually, you know what, I'm kind of taking your opinion. It's okay.

05:44:16.240 --> 05:44:20.600
had to pose in cons compared to regular trebuchet and yeah it's decent it has less range but

05:44:20.600 --> 05:44:25.640
you know you can move it really it's not bad. I feel like that less range kind of for me

05:44:25.640 --> 05:44:32.600
is a bit of a no. If you're playing the game to you know the mystery zone which I've never

05:44:32.600 --> 05:44:37.880
been to where trebuchets can even be bought then I feel like you just want the extra range

05:44:37.880 --> 05:44:42.000
on it. Chat by the way it's talking about the Imperial Age the mystery zone it's just

05:44:42.000 --> 05:44:50.000
We haven't discovered it yet, but it's on the steers.

05:44:50.000 --> 05:44:54.000
People talk about it, but obviously you're not going to get past Castle.

05:44:54.000 --> 05:44:57.000
Here we go, a little bit of a push here from Grubby.

05:44:57.000 --> 05:44:59.000
How does Grubby show?

05:44:59.000 --> 05:45:03.000
Why does it feel like he has such an army event?

05:45:03.000 --> 05:45:05.000
He's almost looping. That's why he's looping.

05:45:05.000 --> 05:45:08.000
Whoa! Forward Castle!

05:45:08.000 --> 05:45:12.800
Oh, a forecastle behind his forecastle is crazy.

05:45:12.800 --> 05:45:14.440
That's Aura.

05:45:14.440 --> 05:45:15.720
Yeah, it's kind of insane.

05:45:15.720 --> 05:45:18.080
And this castle is all over the place.

05:45:18.080 --> 05:45:19.360
You're not forecastling me, I'm forecastling you.

05:45:19.360 --> 05:45:20.600
But we've got two defensive castles

05:45:20.600 --> 05:45:21.920
trying to hold this now.

05:45:21.920 --> 05:45:23.040
The maps have been cut in half,

05:45:23.040 --> 05:45:24.480
but tirecaps really are on the field.

05:45:24.480 --> 05:45:25.640
This unit is very, very strong.

05:45:25.640 --> 05:45:29.040
It gets stronger the more units it kills, by the way.

05:45:29.040 --> 05:45:31.320
No blinds. Fire lasers are decent against that, right?

05:45:31.320 --> 05:45:32.160
Pretty solid?

05:45:32.160 --> 05:45:33.000
Yeah. I mean, I assume.

05:45:33.000 --> 05:45:33.840
Pretty solid.

05:45:33.840 --> 05:45:35.120
They're going to make short work of those tirecaps

05:45:35.120 --> 05:45:36.440
at the time being.

05:45:36.440 --> 05:45:39.280
Fire Lancer or Anti Cavalry for the most part, but guys no vlog lines

05:45:39.280 --> 05:45:40.680
We saw this in a grand final

05:45:40.680 --> 05:45:45.280
Leery forgot blood lines on the way for like an hour and grubby. I don't forgot coaching

05:45:45.280 --> 05:45:49.120
He did get coaching from Leery. Maybe that was one of the things they talked about also no hands

05:45:52.240 --> 05:45:54.240
No handcart by the way is

05:45:55.640 --> 05:45:57.640
My traction trebs yes

05:45:57.640 --> 05:45:59.640
with the king is in that castle

05:45:59.640 --> 05:46:01.640
I have a lot of traction trevus

05:46:01.640 --> 05:46:03.640
King jr get kicked out

05:46:03.640 --> 05:46:05.640
he gets kicked out, goes to the town center

05:46:05.640 --> 05:46:07.640
it's fine

05:46:07.640 --> 05:46:09.640
I thought he didn't notice

05:46:09.640 --> 05:46:11.640
no splash damage to the traction trevus

05:46:11.640 --> 05:46:13.640
they're really only like anti buildings

05:46:13.640 --> 05:46:15.640
they're okay vs units but

05:46:15.640 --> 05:46:17.640
not the craziest anti units

05:46:17.640 --> 05:46:19.640
in the game

05:46:21.640 --> 05:46:23.640
they're both maxed out

05:46:23.640 --> 05:46:25.640
but for some reason it feels like grubby has

05:46:25.640 --> 05:46:32.320
It is odd, you look at the army stats and the grubbys should be killed in twice as many.

05:46:32.320 --> 05:46:36.720
Grubbys has 30 more vils and yet it's also more army somehow, I don't understand what

05:46:36.720 --> 05:46:39.720
the army is.

05:46:39.720 --> 05:46:45.040
And here it is, it's got some in the castle, but yeah, to your point guys, I feel like

05:46:45.040 --> 05:46:46.960
you should have a lot more on the field.

05:46:46.960 --> 05:46:50.760
No Blood Lent is a big deal in these fights, so keep in mind that Grubbys army is going

05:46:50.760 --> 05:46:57.760
20 HP less per unit, so they perform.

05:46:57.760 --> 05:47:02.760
Fire Lancers, this is really good, Fire Lancers is strong.

05:47:02.760 --> 05:47:04.760
That cost was going to go though.

05:47:04.760 --> 05:47:09.760
These traction trends are actually quite annoying for you, Thermal.

05:47:09.760 --> 05:47:14.760
They're just taking in a lot of buildings and staying mobile so you can't really pin them down.

05:47:14.760 --> 05:47:16.760
Oh, Bulldance comes in, that's huge.

05:47:16.760 --> 05:47:20.960
up so that no huge disaster for Grubby there and you thermal and get to point

05:47:20.960 --> 05:47:25.760
it rock there's another forward castle coming to the north yeah from Grubby

05:47:25.760 --> 05:47:29.540
yet another forward course another one and he had that one placed down here he

05:47:29.540 --> 05:47:33.320
kind of switched it up went to the top these targeting that stone a couple

05:47:33.320 --> 05:47:39.080
trash and ships going down for free that's not good in any language okay

05:47:39.080 --> 05:47:43.200
you thermal I mean building a huge amount of buildings outside his walls

05:47:43.200 --> 05:47:47.560
Getting ready for like a significant take some take some that pressure

05:47:49.560 --> 05:47:52.440
Need to need to be slowed down there just destroy your castle

05:47:52.440 --> 05:47:54.000
There's only so much stone in the game

05:47:54.000 --> 05:47:59.840
Yeah, you can't feed at all the grubby's traction traps you will run out and actually formal is out of stone

05:47:59.840 --> 05:48:04.880
Yeah, it's got zero stone and no castles in this base besides like the one so all these forward castles

05:48:04.880 --> 05:48:07.560
It's kind of hurting him more than anything like this is not helping him secure anything

05:48:07.560 --> 05:48:12.200
I want these castles to be at the back defending your woodlands. He's got no defense and the castles in the front

05:48:12.200 --> 05:48:17.480
It was dying. This is terrible news for you thermal. He also has violence up top not stopping the Ford castle

05:48:20.000 --> 05:48:22.660
Action everywhere, okay, so you know my god pump of

05:48:24.320 --> 05:48:29.000
Skirm, okay, there's there's a huge right coming. Yeah, the king is in the town center

05:48:29.000 --> 05:48:33.760
By the way, the king is in the town center. Oh if he snipes the king you could you could imagine

05:48:34.000 --> 05:48:38.400
No, he's gone past the he's playing this stand away. He wants to kill. Yeah, he might think it's a villager

05:48:38.400 --> 05:48:41.600
He might think it's a villager in there, so not gonna commit there, but still a big raid coming in

05:48:42.200 --> 05:48:46.920
Yeah, huge raid. I mean, yeah, he said there's no castles in here. So this is so hard to clear it up

05:48:47.080 --> 05:48:50.920
It's it's the worst feeling when Europe comp is infantry and there's his cavalry

05:48:50.920 --> 05:48:56.400
We have to run back over a million miles to try and clear all this up by the time you do that

05:48:56.400 --> 05:49:01.400
They're already at your base with a castle another army. It's just it's such an exhausting. Oh, there's a nice raid

05:49:01.400 --> 05:49:06.240
But it's good. Yeah, by the way behind this you throw was also counter playing. He's also raiding

05:49:06.240 --> 05:49:09.360
He's got units everywhere grubby still has a kind of a messy economy

05:49:09.360 --> 05:49:13.800
But it's big damage from grubby with these raids and that forward castle that bit mentioned here

05:49:13.800 --> 05:49:19.760
It's up and running carry cap production from there as well targeting the very exposed woodlands traction traps

05:49:19.760 --> 05:49:22.640
It seemingly just cannot be stopped it can easily kill this trebuchet

05:49:22.640 --> 05:49:26.000
You can almost kind of a little bit of traffic jam there are you trapped himself?

05:49:26.000 --> 05:49:31.240
Yeah, that's the thing it feels like a grubby fought you thermals army straight up you thermal can win

05:49:31.240 --> 05:49:37.200
Well grubby is not doing that. He's attacking in different spots and his army is not fast enough. That's the thing about these oh

05:49:37.200 --> 05:49:45.280
oh that open gate could be a problem this open yeah okay though yes it's pretty

05:49:45.280 --> 05:49:49.640
fine but I think what you throw on these is some seeds like he can't seem to

05:49:49.640 --> 05:49:53.360
break any building he's fighting all right but this army's not a building

05:49:53.360 --> 05:49:58.440
breaker it's it's just it's cabin so he's he's not getting as much damage you

05:49:58.440 --> 05:50:01.920
know you see it's very strong he's getting tired calf very effectively

05:50:01.920 --> 05:50:05.440
there we kind of almost clear up all these armies it's gonna kind of turn into

05:50:05.440 --> 05:50:10.520
a grubby pushing the hole defending big fire happening down to the south though

05:50:10.520 --> 05:50:15.760
take a look at oh wait a hole now I'll say big hole in your fight

05:50:15.760 --> 05:50:21.800
it's a dance party it looks like you're gonna break up the party though the

05:50:21.800 --> 05:50:25.200
castle I feel like Grubby took first move with the tower and you throw them

05:50:25.200 --> 05:50:29.760
but it's kind of mugged them just dropping that cast let me show you my

05:50:29.760 --> 05:50:34.880
tower looks like this is your thermals final

05:50:34.880 --> 05:50:36.440
Yeah

05:50:36.440 --> 05:50:40.760
Forward castle. I'm sure five tractor jobs will be here in two seconds to blow it up, and then he's out

05:50:41.560 --> 05:50:44.080
There's the traction trips. They're just waiting

05:50:44.720 --> 05:50:47.520
Yeah, they're they can move but they're just

05:50:48.400 --> 05:50:53.200
The castle cost more than the stone. It's taking years. Yeah, there's like 200 stone left

05:50:53.200 --> 05:50:56.560
Yes, you're still in a time. It's not really that worth it

05:50:56.560 --> 05:51:00.600
But there's that gold there you throw my duties if it was be like to what's corner the map

05:51:00.600 --> 05:51:03.880
This is like a very important corner for him, really want that goal.

05:51:03.880 --> 05:51:06.480
This is the most important pebble on the map, okay?

05:51:06.480 --> 05:51:09.080
This is so important.

05:51:09.080 --> 05:51:11.600
He must, the kingdom's most important thing.

05:51:11.600 --> 05:51:14.600
There's another wave of villagers coming off the left of the screen.

05:51:14.600 --> 05:51:18.600
Oh, should we get another castle drop?

05:51:18.600 --> 05:51:20.080
Grubby really wanted to do it as well.

05:51:20.080 --> 05:51:23.400
Coppitation coming in for some late game economy tax, but take a look at this, the

05:51:23.400 --> 05:51:25.800
raids never really stop for Grubby.

05:51:25.800 --> 05:51:29.760
Wait, so give me a comparison here on stats here.

05:51:29.760 --> 05:51:35.120
Paper money versus relics. Yeah, how much money is he getting from these is trickle of wood gold?

05:51:35.440 --> 05:51:40.160
So I think the number is like a 20 or 30 villagers shopping wood is like one relic

05:51:40.160 --> 05:51:42.840
So like the 70 they were seeing here is about like two or three relics

05:51:42.840 --> 05:51:47.000
So it's actually not better than the four relics that grubby has but decent

05:51:47.440 --> 05:51:53.760
However decent it does rely on having wood on the map which doesn't last forever despite of course wood not the most scarce resource

05:51:53.760 --> 05:51:55.760
But you know something to think about at least

05:51:55.960 --> 05:51:59.440
Yeah, I'm just saying because we're at the phase of the game now where gold is almost out

05:51:59.440 --> 05:52:01.760
This little thing at the bottom is basically the last

05:52:02.400 --> 05:52:07.680
There's maybe one in the middle. Yeah, almost out of actual mineable gold. And that's where the relics become

05:52:08.160 --> 05:52:12.400
Really, really valuable for grabby. He's already gotten 3000 gold more than you thermal. Yeah

05:52:12.480 --> 05:52:15.120
This relics so far. So if paper money can't keep up

05:52:15.920 --> 05:52:19.760
Then he's gonna he's gonna fall apart. Yeah, I want brit. Sorry for your spot

05:52:19.760 --> 05:52:24.480
But what happens if this goes to an hour and 30 minutes? Can you explain the end time goals?

05:52:24.480 --> 05:52:31.140
I can because I saw this happen several times when you played live and I almost missed my bus home

05:52:32.480 --> 05:52:34.980
Basically the game goes so long

05:52:35.500 --> 05:52:41.040
That they realized for the health and safety of everyone involved after an hour and 30 minutes of in-game time

05:52:41.360 --> 05:52:45.480
It just goes to whoever has the highest score now score is determined by a few things

05:52:46.240 --> 05:52:47.840
vision on the map

05:52:47.840 --> 05:52:50.320
technologies your KD and

05:52:51.340 --> 05:52:53.340
Your economy so

05:52:53.340 --> 05:52:58.400
basically you want to get good value for killing more units than you lose so that

05:52:58.400 --> 05:53:02.180
way your opponent doesn't gain as much score and you also want a big economy and

05:53:02.180 --> 05:53:06.900
hit up all those texts so yeah we could be heading there especially as we get to

05:53:06.900 --> 05:53:11.220
a resource starved map that was an insane explanation that was the best thing

05:53:11.220 --> 05:53:14.900
you've done in age bumpers now that's a career highlight that's actually

05:53:14.900 --> 05:53:16.900
Fantastic

05:53:28.100 --> 05:53:34.580
Him splitting you thermals like the archer micro a chalk highlight sleeping it's different Brit the highlight is the explanation

05:53:34.860 --> 05:53:36.860
Everyone's got a highlight. It's very fantastic

05:53:37.260 --> 05:53:39.260
Everyone's got highlights, bro

05:53:39.420 --> 05:53:43.660
I've also got quite a few lowlights, but we prefer not to talk about those

05:53:43.660 --> 05:53:46.460
Yeah, we've seen them one but that was repeating them, you know

05:53:47.620 --> 05:53:50.220
King I like that respect that you're not a big fan of the monarchy

05:53:51.340 --> 05:53:56.740
Yeah, well no, I'm a fan. I'm a fan of the monarchy. It's just you know the one guy that one dude

05:53:56.740 --> 05:53:59.400
My guy was an imposter. He had to die. That's why I see

05:53:59.940 --> 05:54:04.340
No, you said one game only sausage fingers are favorite

05:54:04.340 --> 05:54:12.420
I gotta say, the way he's going is pretty good for Grubby.

05:54:12.420 --> 05:54:17.140
He's looking so solid in this late game battle all over the map situations.

05:54:17.140 --> 05:54:20.180
But think of this, your thermal's got double the military count.

05:54:20.180 --> 05:54:23.420
Even though maybe the military is stronger for Grubby, like if it's one universe, one

05:54:23.420 --> 05:54:27.940
unit, but if it's like double the count for your thermal, and he's finally got some siege,

05:54:27.940 --> 05:54:30.540
he could be kind of turning the script on its head right now.

05:54:30.540 --> 05:54:35.540
We're missing siege engineers that attack for the Trevor Shavers to extra range and extra damage from buildings, but still,

05:54:35.540 --> 05:54:40.540
Tata resin the bank for you thermal, he can easily take some good fights here with double the military.

05:54:40.540 --> 05:54:46.540
Yeah, true. I mean, 152 builders for Grubby does live in with less army than you'd like.

05:54:46.540 --> 05:54:52.540
I don't think this army from you thermal can be stopped head to head.

05:54:52.540 --> 05:54:58.700
At the same time, it feels kind of like if he hasn't got his value out a bit.

05:54:58.700 --> 05:55:04.020
Like he's always had almost like an extra 40 units over Grubby, but it doesn't feel

05:55:04.020 --> 05:55:08.460
like he has control of the map or the resources, or he is exerting much pressure.

05:55:08.460 --> 05:55:12.220
Yeah, it's a bit strange, I'm not even sure why that's the case, I feel like if you just

05:55:12.220 --> 05:55:16.500
kind of use his army count and kind of lean with his army onto Grubby, I think you can

05:55:16.500 --> 05:55:18.700
actually get some respect on the map and just push out.

05:55:18.700 --> 05:55:22.020
I don't think you need to be like respecting these 10 Zambes back here.

05:55:22.020 --> 05:55:25.300
I mean, just leave some reinforcements, the great army should just move out here, in my opinion.

05:55:27.300 --> 05:55:32.940
Yeah, also worth noting that Uthermwise decided he will never pick up the relic in his base as long as he lives.

05:55:32.940 --> 05:55:42.860
Even though at this point that would be at least 6,700 gold guaranteed that he has just decided he does not want, he doesn't need it, he will win without relics.

05:55:42.860 --> 05:55:50.460
If this comes down to a game of score, he might regret it, but for the moment, we'll just let it slide.

05:55:50.460 --> 05:55:55.100
nice moving out here but I mean deleting some walls could be nice our units

05:55:55.100 --> 05:55:59.100
can move. Attraction traps could easily kill these traps so Grubby needs to take

05:55:59.100 --> 05:56:02.820
a shot right now but if he's not doing that he's got a backup because the

05:56:02.820 --> 05:56:07.020
finances are closing the distance. That's okay the treasure is targeting the stone

05:56:07.020 --> 05:56:14.780
mine for some reason. Did you not get a bombard cannon? They do. They do. Like did you get

05:56:14.780 --> 05:56:17.300
bombers and you thermals decided not to go for them but you thermal is taking a

05:56:17.300 --> 05:56:20.420
really good fight right now. He's gonna kill this castle and there's a lot of

05:56:20.420 --> 05:56:29.860
stone here they can take um this could finally be it the actual stone that the

05:56:29.860 --> 05:56:34.740
one remaining stone on the map yeah for these I think it is I mean we saw what

05:56:34.740 --> 05:56:37.260
they did to fight for this one I mean this one could be a bloodbath this could

05:56:37.260 --> 05:56:41.300
be World War three right now so far it's like you thermals going out for but

05:56:41.300 --> 05:56:45.020
grubby keeps fighting around the area so this is not gonna be like a oh you

05:56:45.020 --> 05:56:48.660
could just have it this is gonna be hotly contested by the looks of things

05:56:48.660 --> 05:56:54.120
Look at the cavalry trying to charge down those trebuchets, but that chip point is being

05:56:54.120 --> 05:56:55.120
held so well.

05:56:55.120 --> 05:56:56.120
You're not going to leave that wall.

05:56:56.120 --> 05:56:57.120
Asia is thinking long term.

05:56:57.120 --> 05:56:58.120
You're going to have to make a joke.

05:56:58.120 --> 05:56:59.120
That's fantastic to play from your terrible.

05:56:59.120 --> 05:57:00.120
And Grubby's being sent back.

05:57:00.120 --> 05:57:01.120
Grubby's being sent back.

05:57:01.120 --> 05:57:02.120
Grubby is low on gold.

05:57:02.120 --> 05:57:03.120
He does have the relics.

05:57:03.120 --> 05:57:06.000
I mean, relics guys, it's a slow passive income.

05:57:06.000 --> 05:57:11.720
It's not something that gives you a bulk of world one shot.

05:57:11.720 --> 05:57:15.120
Grubby, there's a world where he just can never fight this army and he's got to get

05:57:15.120 --> 05:57:16.360
back to that raiding strategy.

05:57:16.360 --> 05:57:19.040
That raiding strategy, maybe even the king snap strategy, where's the king?

05:57:19.400 --> 05:57:20.440
Could look for something like that.

05:57:21.000 --> 05:57:24.040
It's so funny at these level of games, it's obviously still very, very good.

05:57:24.040 --> 05:57:27.880
But these level, it often seems like the raids just open up pop space

05:57:27.880 --> 05:57:29.040
so the other guy gets more army.

05:57:29.160 --> 05:57:29.520
True.

05:57:29.520 --> 05:57:31.040
Like everywhere overbuilds villagers.

05:57:31.080 --> 05:57:33.760
So when you get 20 loss in their raid, it's like, oh, that's actually awesome.

05:57:34.440 --> 05:57:36.560
Now I can make my army that I've been holding back on.

05:57:36.960 --> 05:57:39.280
Like a raid that killed 30 grubby builds would help him.

05:57:39.280 --> 05:57:40.320
It would be so nice.

05:57:40.320 --> 05:57:41.520
He's at 150.

05:57:41.920 --> 05:57:42.280
Yeah.

05:57:42.600 --> 05:57:44.440
He's got 88 Hussars in the queue, by the way.

05:57:44.440 --> 05:57:49.440
88 hazards in the queue, he's playing hazards for the rest of his life, trying to use them to snipe some of those

05:57:50.080 --> 05:57:52.520
pesky trebuchets, but not really quite fine in the kills.

05:57:59.320 --> 05:58:06.280
By the way, this is gonna be probably another last charge of the cavalry unfortunately. I can't see them breaking through this.

05:58:07.160 --> 05:58:08.960
Yeah.

05:58:08.960 --> 05:58:13.840
I will say it's so nice when you're playing and you know that your comp is

05:58:14.440 --> 05:58:17.740
good. I don't know what you're saying is right, but like when you know that Fire Lancer's

05:58:17.740 --> 05:58:21.740
firm is good, kind of in all situations, you don't have to think as much and constantly

05:58:21.740 --> 05:58:25.780
be switching around and changing upgrades and it gives you like a stability to be like

05:58:25.780 --> 05:58:28.260
alright I can keep making this and I can fight whatever comes my way.

05:58:28.260 --> 05:58:29.260
Yeah I agree.

05:58:29.260 --> 05:58:31.140
Why is the game paused? What does this mean?

05:58:31.140 --> 05:58:36.340
Okay, it's a pause. It could be air conditioned for grubby. It could be a number of reasons

05:58:36.340 --> 05:58:39.740
but in this game it's like if you have a technical difficulty it's fine.

05:58:39.740 --> 05:58:44.340
I see what they are playing in Europe. We do have a heatwave. It makes sense

05:58:45.140 --> 05:58:47.140
These guys are currently melting

05:58:47.940 --> 05:58:51.740
You thermal is actually experiencing what it is like to be in Vietnam

05:58:52.940 --> 05:58:54.940
Right now just with the temperature

05:58:55.540 --> 05:58:57.540
Come for the RP

05:58:59.500 --> 05:59:01.900
4k gold from relics at some point

05:59:02.300 --> 05:59:06.460
You have to think if you thermal maybe I should grab the one maybe I'm gonna grab two

05:59:06.460 --> 05:59:14.020
That amount of gold is is a big difference in the army. You can oh grubby just deleted

05:59:14.020 --> 05:59:19.700
Yeah, 10 30 bills. Oh, wow 30 people sent to die that grubby finally have a bigger army

05:59:19.700 --> 05:59:24.300
That's actually what look at the cavalry coming in. Yes. I have to be chosen if you're one of the bills

05:59:26.660 --> 05:59:28.660
Picked by grubby to die. Oh

05:59:30.500 --> 05:59:36.140
I think it's a worthy sacrifice because now it gets a lot of a cablery on the field the rays are starting to get a little heavier

05:59:36.460 --> 05:59:42.540
Um, I mean, you thermostars more army on the field, but I feel like Grubby now kind of matching his numbers

05:59:42.540 --> 05:59:46.140
It gives him a more chances to get a good fight in. This is fantastic, though

05:59:46.140 --> 05:59:50.340
Good rates on these woodlands and Britt's your point earlier. We talked about woodlands being a big deal

05:59:50.980 --> 05:59:54.860
By not expanding like we've done all the wood at the back is completely, you know chopped

05:59:54.860 --> 05:59:58.780
You've got these forward woodlands hotly contested the side woodlands even more exposed

05:59:58.780 --> 06:00:03.380
So you can almost actually in kind of a bit of trouble hard to envision this being that big of a deal

06:00:03.380 --> 06:00:08.180
So he's got 9000 wood in the bank, but maybe something super long term to think about here.

06:00:08.180 --> 06:00:13.220
I think it's quite interesting how Grubby is kind of using his army to try and bait

06:00:13.220 --> 06:00:17.060
in Euphemals, much slower moving army.

06:00:17.060 --> 06:00:18.620
And I think that's kind of smart.

06:00:18.620 --> 06:00:22.660
Try and draw him to one side of the map and then quickly pivot away to the other side

06:00:22.660 --> 06:00:24.740
and see if you can harass it there.

06:00:24.740 --> 06:00:25.740
Love that, yeah.

06:00:25.740 --> 06:00:29.620
Just kind of using that mobility to gain a number's advantage on a certain point in

06:00:29.620 --> 06:00:30.620
the map.

06:00:30.620 --> 06:00:35.940
You thermals army running not fighting like when they fight they do so much those keep them running good trap snipe though

06:00:35.940 --> 06:00:41.380
Grubby that's gonna be nice remember at this stage of the game sniping gold units way more pathful than hitting food units

06:00:41.380 --> 06:00:44.340
Those are not that big of a deal that Trebs certainly is

06:00:45.060 --> 06:00:47.060
Yeah

06:00:47.140 --> 06:00:51.700
Yeah, it's kind of tough. I mean the the gold difference. It's starting to become the big story

06:00:52.460 --> 06:00:56.840
Grubby's banking gold at this point deciding what he wants to make for an X wave of gold units

06:00:56.840 --> 06:01:00.840
That's good. The pressure has never really left you thermal side this whole game.

06:01:00.840 --> 06:01:02.840
He's been so good about keeping that pressure on.

06:01:02.840 --> 06:01:05.840
He's had some small raids. You have that loopy castle as well.

06:01:05.840 --> 06:01:08.840
But this massive Zambia is now like 50 Zambia.

06:01:08.840 --> 06:01:11.840
This could never die as long as Grubby just doesn't fight with it.

06:01:11.840 --> 06:01:15.840
Like you can just get good picks with it as soon as there's some scurms just run out of the way.

06:01:15.840 --> 06:01:18.840
Box formation. Oh my goodness. Look at this. It's kind of scary.

06:01:18.840 --> 06:01:22.840
Oh my God. He's going to surround him. He's going to trap him inside.

06:01:22.840 --> 06:01:28.840
Uh, I gotta imagine though, Call of Reactors versus Imperial Skirmishers and Fire Lancers feels like the worst.

06:01:29.340 --> 06:01:31.340
I guess it's just about avoiding the combat.

06:01:31.340 --> 06:01:35.840
Yeah, it's like, they do okay versus the Fire Lancers. They just have to not fight Skirms.

06:01:35.840 --> 06:01:38.840
And if Fire Lancers get close, I mean they can never get close because you'd always just run away.

06:01:38.840 --> 06:01:42.840
So it's not that bad, but it does feel that it's going to counter by both units at times.

06:01:42.840 --> 06:01:45.840
But yeah, I mean, take a look at this. They can make sure it works with the Fire Lancers most of the time.

06:01:46.840 --> 06:01:47.840
Right.

06:01:47.840 --> 06:01:50.840
Is there a world where we see Gruby go for a king snipe here?

06:01:50.840 --> 06:01:54.340
I mean, surely he kind of has an idea of where that king is.

06:01:54.340 --> 06:01:58.340
I think so. I'll tell you why I think so. I think this castle now is super exposed.

06:01:58.340 --> 06:02:00.340
There's no woods, like no natural barrier.

06:02:00.340 --> 06:02:01.840
You can easily see to the corner of the map.

06:02:01.840 --> 06:02:04.840
Yeah, there is some vision, but like five traction ships go to the bottom

06:02:04.840 --> 06:02:07.840
and then just target in the castle. You have a very mobile army.

06:02:07.840 --> 06:02:11.340
You can make a king snipe happen. Will he go for it? I'm not sure.

06:02:11.340 --> 06:02:13.840
Right now he's getting techs to try to boost the score.

06:02:13.840 --> 06:02:17.340
So he's trying to play through with that score win, but there is that weird condition of a king snipe.

06:02:17.340 --> 06:02:22.740
You thermal probably can't with the immobile army, but I think Rubby can so he can if he wants to basically

06:02:23.780 --> 06:02:27.620
Going for the score when a half hour early is is confidence

06:02:28.300 --> 06:02:30.820
Yeah, there's some fights still left to have I'm

06:02:31.460 --> 06:02:35.540
I'm shocked. He's doing it this early, but he doesn't have such a gold lead

06:02:35.540 --> 06:02:39.540
Maybe he just thinks no matter what comes my way. I can build the counter and stop it. So

06:02:40.700 --> 06:02:44.780
He's got a couple of traction traps here looking for that castle down bottom and you know

06:02:44.780 --> 06:02:47.760
Just hitting and running and every time there's a lot of army coming his way

06:02:47.760 --> 06:02:52.420
He just kind of just avoid that but you throw my things kind of had enough of just chasing army and doing some cardio

06:02:52.420 --> 06:02:55.500
I think he wants to get an actual push going so three trebuchets right now

06:02:55.500 --> 06:02:59.360
But he's in an encounter a huge force from grubby here big fight taking place

06:03:01.020 --> 06:03:03.340
Oh, no, where's this huge if grubby

06:03:04.100 --> 06:03:09.880
He can go straight to those trebs. Yep. Oh, it's absolutely those trebs his whole pushes. Oh, this is like such a bad

06:03:09.880 --> 06:03:11.880
I had a...

06:03:11.880 --> 06:03:13.880
I don't think so, the traction trips.

06:03:13.880 --> 06:03:15.880
Oh, but the traction trips!

06:03:15.880 --> 06:03:17.880
Oh wait, not the traction trips!

06:03:17.880 --> 06:03:19.880
Wait, actually pretty nice.

06:03:19.880 --> 06:03:21.880
He's dodging the arrows with the front.

06:03:21.880 --> 06:03:23.880
Impressive for me, Thermal.

06:03:23.880 --> 06:03:25.880
Is that another forward castle on the map?

06:03:25.880 --> 06:03:27.880
Yeah, it is.

06:03:27.880 --> 06:03:29.880
Where did he get the stone for that?

06:03:29.880 --> 06:03:31.880
H-Truck, no, we saw it. Remember that stone here.

06:03:31.880 --> 06:03:33.880
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, you're right.

06:03:33.880 --> 06:03:35.880
This castle, this castle.

06:03:35.880 --> 06:03:37.880
It got him two castles, that's pretty huge.

06:03:37.880 --> 06:03:43.080
map gives him a nice football to actually launch and a proper push against Grubby's base. So this is

06:03:43.080 --> 06:03:48.920
really, really interesting. It could be anyone's game right now. Rates at the back. After all that

06:03:48.920 --> 06:03:53.080
getting pushed in, Uther most finally saying I've had enough and getting out there.

06:03:54.360 --> 06:03:58.040
Tenghis doesn't really have the bills. I think he lost the bills on the billers.

06:03:58.040 --> 06:04:03.320
By the way, his economy right now is 38 guys on wood. Wait, his economy is totally dead.

06:04:03.320 --> 06:04:06.240
He's got zero on food H rocks zero on food

06:04:07.240 --> 06:04:12.880
Zero gold zero stone is economy's 38 military. Wait. He actually is lost wait. I'm right

06:04:13.280 --> 06:04:18.720
This is terrible for him. I mean is totally gone. I just realized it's not even

06:04:21.160 --> 06:04:23.560
Grumpy just won I didn't understand

06:04:23.960 --> 06:04:30.480
What the rating was that good defensive castle raids were really heavy a hundred and fifty military

06:04:30.480 --> 06:04:33.840
You thermal fight anything just keep fighting and losing your armies

06:04:33.840 --> 06:04:37.080
You can make some villagers castle from grab you though really good position

06:04:37.080 --> 06:04:40.200
Should I hold in the middle of the map the trebuchets? Oh, no

06:04:41.320 --> 06:04:45.320
166 cabin cube for grubby. Oh my god. That's crazy

06:04:46.920 --> 06:04:49.160
This is you throw most last army basic

06:04:49.160 --> 06:04:53.600
I guess you can make one more way because you had a lot of food and wood, but he has zero economy

06:04:53.600 --> 06:04:54.900
Yeah, wow

06:04:54.900 --> 06:04:59.940
I got a continuous raiding by the way grubby recognizes that there's some kind of rain the last ten guys don't work

06:05:00.480 --> 06:05:02.480
He's got more coming up though.

06:05:02.480 --> 06:05:04.480
Now they're gonna end grubby.

06:05:04.480 --> 06:05:10.480
Some villagers coming up in the castle. Actually half of you thermal economies coming out for this castle.

06:05:10.480 --> 06:05:14.480
Wow, I've never seen Rage do that much. That's crazy.

06:05:14.480 --> 06:05:18.480
Grobby takes the score lead by the way. Oh my god, it's back and forth. This game is so close.

06:05:18.480 --> 06:05:20.480
Love it. So close.

06:05:23.480 --> 06:05:25.480
Alright, thermal defenses, Trebuchet.

06:05:30.480 --> 06:05:34.360
Turn your pop each.

06:05:34.360 --> 06:05:38.000
There's only one trap so you could out repair this for a while by the way.

06:05:38.000 --> 06:05:41.560
And no king snipe attempt, then we've got a lot of army back here for your thermal.

06:05:41.560 --> 06:05:44.760
Again it's like 145 army, he's having trouble just controlling all of it.

06:05:44.760 --> 06:05:49.800
You can only get 60 in a group in Age of Empires 2, so like he's got two full groups of 60

06:05:49.800 --> 06:05:51.520
army and then still 25 left over.

06:05:51.520 --> 06:05:52.520
It's a hard army to control.

06:05:52.520 --> 06:05:55.680
Now take a look at the damage coming out of these skirmishers, that's why you can't fight

06:05:55.680 --> 06:05:56.680
them.

06:05:56.680 --> 06:05:57.680
Look at that 5, Zambé, what are those?

06:05:57.680 --> 06:05:58.680
Oh wow, yeah.

06:05:58.680 --> 06:05:59.680
It's deadly.

06:05:59.680 --> 06:06:05.000
Can't lose those gold units this year. I'm so strong burst archer units. Yep. Him screams as well specifically

06:06:05.040 --> 06:06:08.760
Here we go with a traction trebuchet traction trebuchet counters regular trebuchet by the way

06:06:08.760 --> 06:06:10.840
See acts more like a bombard against it

06:06:11.640 --> 06:06:16.840
So I've got the score that still though. He needs to keep that trouble alive or his push doesn't get anywhere

06:06:16.840 --> 06:06:21.060
Yeah, there's no stone left for grubbies. We gotta keep alive

06:06:21.640 --> 06:06:27.000
Yeah, that treb if it dies it just it burns out your whole push. Grubby buys the stone

06:06:27.000 --> 06:06:31.000
That's expensive. He snipes it. He snipes the trap. He don't have a lot though.

06:06:31.000 --> 06:06:33.000
Yeah, he's just like this.

06:06:36.000 --> 06:06:37.000
That's just me.

06:06:37.000 --> 06:06:38.000
Yes, another push.

06:06:38.000 --> 06:06:39.000
Yep.

06:06:40.000 --> 06:06:42.000
He's trying to raid, but this time the thermals got some army.

06:06:42.000 --> 06:06:44.000
I mean, thank God his army's got no Vils.

06:06:44.000 --> 06:06:46.000
At this point, like,

06:06:46.000 --> 06:06:49.000
Ruby raiding is actually not even that good because there's no Vils left to raid,

06:06:49.000 --> 06:06:51.000
and you're just running into army.

06:06:51.000 --> 06:06:53.000
So it's getting into a weird situation where Grubby has to start fighting army

06:06:53.000 --> 06:06:55.000
and start trading because your thermals got a zero on food.

06:06:55.000 --> 06:06:59.700
You can't replace army forever. I want to see grubby make that call and just start fighting armies

06:07:00.400 --> 06:07:06.900
Yeah, there's a period of this game where you firm over is a hundred deaths behind his kill rate and now he is

06:07:07.600 --> 06:07:11.160
Rapidly pulling ahead of grubby in KD. Yeah, that's very interesting

06:07:12.040 --> 06:07:17.800
You can always tell his scurns to drop their weapons and pick up an axe because everyone has to go on the home front and make some

06:07:17.800 --> 06:07:20.120
Real resources. He's about to run out

06:07:21.160 --> 06:07:23.160
He's long dude

06:07:23.160 --> 06:07:29.120
Traction traps for Grubby, by the way, he's investing so much into these Shepardjays.

06:07:29.120 --> 06:07:31.800
He does have a single Relic, remember that he's on paper money, gold and cum.

06:07:31.800 --> 06:07:33.640
He's made two Shepardjays, they just died.

06:07:33.640 --> 06:07:37.240
He's got one behind the castle, I'd be scared to even deploy here, and then cast on the

06:07:37.240 --> 06:07:38.800
front with no stone in the bank.

06:07:38.800 --> 06:07:41.440
If that castle goes down, it's not coming back up ever.

06:07:41.440 --> 06:07:44.440
And Grubby's got two Traction Shaps on it right now, so Grubby I think has a more stable

06:07:44.440 --> 06:07:46.440
position thanks to his Relics.

06:07:46.440 --> 06:07:49.400
Big fight on the front though, oh, can't fight those.

06:07:49.400 --> 06:07:55.480
Yeah, but he just has so much money, he's so much food, he doesn't really care.

06:07:55.480 --> 06:07:59.040
Although I mean, when you run out of wood, which Grubby has done, doesn't that kill

06:07:59.040 --> 06:08:01.040
your farm economy pretty quickly soon after?

06:08:01.040 --> 06:08:03.920
Yeah, it's not a huge concern though.

06:08:03.920 --> 06:08:07.840
In one hour thirty timer, no one will run out of wood into food.

06:08:07.840 --> 06:08:08.840
Wood will stay on the map.

06:08:08.840 --> 06:08:11.320
The only time you run out of wood is if you get pressured off woodlands.

06:08:11.320 --> 06:08:14.600
So that could happen, but if you've got the map control, there's tons of wood to take,

06:08:14.600 --> 06:08:17.240
so it's not worth even thinking about here.

06:08:17.240 --> 06:08:18.360
Discworm Army should die by the way.

06:08:18.360 --> 06:08:19.960
This scrim army is prime time.

06:08:19.960 --> 06:08:22.320
Grabby's gotta go with the Cessar, there's no file answer.

06:08:22.320 --> 06:08:23.480
You can take this all out.

06:08:23.480 --> 06:08:24.840
Again, zero on food.

06:08:24.840 --> 06:08:26.880
You thermal can't rebake army.

06:08:26.880 --> 06:08:28.840
At least not forever, that's for sure.

06:08:31.840 --> 06:08:34.480
Yeah, 20 minutes left before score win,

06:08:34.480 --> 06:08:37.920
but I think, I think I'll be my break in before win.

06:08:37.920 --> 06:08:39.240
It's tough to say.

06:08:39.240 --> 06:08:40.080
Yeah.

06:08:40.080 --> 06:08:41.280
I will say this game really didn't appreciate

06:08:41.280 --> 06:08:42.440
how powerful Traction Trebs are

06:08:42.440 --> 06:08:43.560
because it's just annoying.

06:08:43.560 --> 06:08:48.240
They just, with Trebs, you can snipe them a lot in here.

06:08:48.240 --> 06:08:50.440
You can stop the push, you can see what's going on,

06:08:50.440 --> 06:08:52.200
but trying to jump to just back up.

06:08:52.200 --> 06:08:53.040
Yeah, and it's like...

06:08:53.040 --> 06:08:56.840
This game really made me appreciate not playing the game,

06:08:56.840 --> 06:08:59.760
because this is a much more comfortable position to be in.

06:08:59.760 --> 06:09:01.720
If I was a knight with their shoes,

06:09:01.720 --> 06:09:04.080
I'd just be sweating profusely,

06:09:05.280 --> 06:09:06.720
not just because of the temperature.

06:09:06.720 --> 06:09:09.000
This would be a nightmare to actually play.

06:09:09.000 --> 06:09:09.840
Like honestly...

06:09:09.840 --> 06:09:11.560
You've actually got a click to do right now.

06:09:11.560 --> 06:09:16.440
Yeah, imagine each of you playing this game,

06:09:16.440 --> 06:09:24.440
and then get that heart rate low because I know it's right up there at like 200 bpm, it's okay, we're not playing it, we're just watching it, we're safe.

06:09:26.440 --> 06:09:36.440
It's a reminder of how much clicking is going on here, it's like massive, massive fights, but right now it's 200 armies from Grubby or 200 Pop Army for Grubby and 110 for you Thermal.

06:09:36.440 --> 06:09:40.440
Yeah, Grubby is overtaking Thermal's army for the first time ever.

06:09:40.440 --> 06:09:46.240
Yep, that's actually I saw you thermal raises hands. I think it's about a GG from him. It look he's about to

06:09:46.900 --> 06:09:49.800
Give it in dude. That's a frustrating game one loss by the way

06:09:49.800 --> 06:09:52.800
You've you've had an hour and a half minutes. You've sweated profusely

06:09:53.520 --> 06:09:58.980
Even you're back and forth you had some winning chances, but grubby outlasted with the relics kept complaint too much

06:09:58.980 --> 06:10:01.720
You didn't have a relic you didn't take so I mean, I mean so much

06:10:03.220 --> 06:10:08.960
And that's your principles. You don't want relics. You don't want relics. Yes. Oh the kings that are attack

06:10:10.440 --> 06:10:13.240
Actually, there's no murder also.

06:10:13.240 --> 06:10:15.240
He might survive that one.

06:10:15.240 --> 06:10:17.680
Eventually, that Hussar will get him.

06:10:17.680 --> 06:10:20.160
It's four damaging headguides in a thousand years.

06:10:20.160 --> 06:10:21.160
The king will die here.

06:10:21.160 --> 06:10:22.160
Just stay tuned.

06:10:22.160 --> 06:10:28.720
Yeah, 6,500 gold from Relics is just a big number.

06:10:28.720 --> 06:10:29.720
GG.

06:10:29.720 --> 06:10:30.720
Oh, Blake.

06:10:30.720 --> 06:10:31.720
Blake Gingby Grubby.

06:10:31.720 --> 06:10:37.080
True clinic on like attacking across the map, winning armies, taking down Castle.

06:10:37.080 --> 06:10:38.080
It was just really good.

06:10:38.080 --> 06:10:39.080
Yeah.

06:10:39.080 --> 06:10:40.080
At the bottom.

06:10:40.080 --> 06:10:46.080
Five games of that, guys. Make sure to book out the rest of your week because this could be going forever.

06:10:46.080 --> 06:10:48.080
It's because of the distance.

06:10:48.080 --> 06:10:52.080
Yeah, no matter what happens, we're finishing the show today, but it could be a 16 hour day.

06:10:52.080 --> 06:10:54.080
Actually, I say that no matter what happens.

06:10:54.080 --> 06:10:58.080
I picked him from Australia, might have been at like his 5am for the finals, but didn't go a full distance.

06:10:58.080 --> 06:11:00.080
Not a single game has went through the timer yet.

06:11:00.080 --> 06:11:04.080
An hour and 13 minutes on the clock, and the youth thermal is broken by Grubby.

06:11:04.080 --> 06:11:07.080
The thing is here, I have to say, you can't even play a bad game.

06:11:07.080 --> 06:11:12.620
I actually think he did fine, but Grubby did a great job of using his mobility to perfection.

06:11:12.620 --> 06:11:14.700
The raids were heavy, but not just the raids.

06:11:14.700 --> 06:11:19.020
It was the presence of mind of attacking in one area, then walking back, going to the other side,

06:11:19.140 --> 06:11:23.940
trying to just keep your thermal's army marching across the map and not marching towards him.

06:11:23.940 --> 06:11:29.260
Which I think was a fantastic play from Grubby, and I have to say, as someone, maybe a shock to some people,

06:11:29.260 --> 06:11:33.240
I've coached him a lot, and I've seen that I think his biggest strength is his late game, and

06:11:33.240 --> 06:11:38.640
And consistently he has a great late game and he shows it off in the tournament now against a heavy heavy rival

06:11:40.440 --> 06:11:44.520
You coached grubby that's that is a shot. I no one would believe that yeah helping him out

06:11:44.520 --> 06:11:46.880
We did it not much, you know, but here and there

06:11:50.040 --> 06:11:56.440
Let them behind you know, I will say this you thermal known hater of registered fortress. Maybe yeah, he's happy

06:11:56.440 --> 06:12:02.760
It's out of the way. He's not every best at fortress by the way every single one. He's a great player, but it's not his map

06:12:02.760 --> 06:12:08.420
He's excited for it to be done with and maybe he can just refocus and see how he does on Arabia

06:12:08.680 --> 06:12:13.700
Which is almost certainly the next choice. Yeah, he's actually one of one red-a-side fortress

06:12:13.700 --> 06:12:19.620
Sorry to correct myself. It was the A.C.U. H.R. But besides that he has one single red-a-side fortress

06:12:19.620 --> 06:12:25.700
And it's probably gonna take us back to our baby. I was sleeping for that game. Give me some time to wake up

06:12:25.700 --> 06:12:27.540
I like question

06:12:27.540 --> 06:12:31.260
Yeah, you're tired can't expect you to show up and play it's all gonna expect me to play

06:12:31.260 --> 06:12:32.860
I'm not a little sleep.

06:12:36.560 --> 06:12:40.000
Yeah, but you know, on some level too, for age of empires players,

06:12:40.460 --> 06:12:43.740
which I now count myself as one of, there's an honor to winning

06:12:43.740 --> 06:12:45.200
on Arabia more than anything else.

06:12:45.200 --> 06:12:48.340
Like if I, if you played at best of seven and you won three

06:12:48.340 --> 06:12:50.660
Arabian games, but lost four other games in your heart, you're like,

06:12:50.660 --> 06:12:51.400
I won that series.

06:12:51.400 --> 06:12:53.160
I'm the better player.

06:12:53.700 --> 06:12:54.460
I'm the better player.

06:12:54.460 --> 06:12:55.600
Like I won the Arabian games.

06:12:56.000 --> 06:12:59.140
And so you thermal, if he wins the next game is going to feel like

06:12:59.140 --> 06:13:00.540
he's, he's still got this.

06:13:00.540 --> 06:13:04.460
I think Arabia is where the real heart shines.

06:13:04.460 --> 06:13:05.460
Yeah, trust us.

06:13:05.460 --> 06:13:10.580
It's interesting you mention that because in my final game, well, my final map, because

06:13:10.580 --> 06:13:15.220
of course I lost the Regicide game, it was like, okay, your choice is fifth, what map

06:13:15.220 --> 06:13:16.220
do you want to play?

06:13:16.220 --> 06:13:21.580
And instead, I just said, okay, Wagga, what map do you prefer playing and what do you

06:13:21.580 --> 06:13:22.780
think your best game is?

06:13:22.780 --> 06:13:24.460
And he was just like, it's Arabia.

06:13:24.460 --> 06:13:27.660
I'm like, okay, let's play Arabia then, hit me with your best.

06:13:27.660 --> 06:13:28.660
And he did.

06:13:28.660 --> 06:13:29.660
It was really fun.

06:13:29.660 --> 06:13:31.660
Did you actually do that?

06:13:32.060 --> 06:13:35.140
Yeah, I did you can see in the lobby chat. Oh my god

06:13:36.180 --> 06:13:38.180
It's a turn of the fifth

06:13:38.740 --> 06:13:44.380
Yeah, but I already had my story arc. I wanted to see other people thrive. Oh my god

06:13:44.380 --> 06:13:50.180
So see what they were about. They were good. I've made it 200,000 dollar bet. You're gonna win the tournaments. You really cost me a lot

06:13:59.660 --> 06:14:02.060
It's not even like expensive tea, yeah.

06:14:02.060 --> 06:14:03.620
Guys, instead of betting is immoral,

06:14:03.620 --> 06:14:05.300
but it's the only way he's making money out of this term,

06:14:05.300 --> 06:14:06.580
but so you can't blame him.

06:14:06.580 --> 06:14:08.580
It's the only way. It's the only way.

06:14:11.140 --> 06:14:12.340
I explained a lot of your moves,

06:14:12.340 --> 06:14:13.900
then King Under the Castle all of a sudden.

06:14:13.900 --> 06:14:14.700
The King's got it.

06:14:14.700 --> 06:14:16.860
It's a lot more sense knowing that better.

06:14:16.860 --> 06:14:17.580
That's crazy.

06:14:17.580 --> 06:14:19.180
You have no idea how many channel points

06:14:19.180 --> 06:14:20.380
I now have for her.

06:14:20.380 --> 06:14:21.380
That's wild.

06:14:22.220 --> 06:14:23.500
All right, Gears View is hosted.

06:14:23.500 --> 06:14:25.420
It's looking like it's in indeed be Arabia.

06:14:25.420 --> 06:14:26.260
They're sitting in the lobby there.

06:14:26.260 --> 06:14:27.460
You see them all as the host.

06:14:27.460 --> 06:14:29.140
By the way, it gives a rating right now.

06:14:29.140 --> 06:14:37.300
It's 1788, you thermal, 1782 grubby, so this is like super evenly matched, you thermal is pretty heavily like not one-dimensional

06:14:37.300 --> 06:14:38.700
But he's heavily

06:14:38.700 --> 06:14:44.780
Statted out on the Arabian games double-side like he lost to Kat last he lost both arenas and the fortress lost 3-2

06:14:45.020 --> 06:14:49.220
Against grubby is now down the fortress and grubby has some arena strategies in mind

06:14:49.220 --> 06:14:52.180
So like you thermal is kind of hard-pressed to win his two Arabian games

06:14:52.180 --> 06:14:58.640
And there's a world where grubby just takes them to two arena games even if you thermal manages that so your thermal will only win

06:14:59.140 --> 06:15:02.020
If he wins one of Grubby's home map, which could be a double arena,

06:15:02.020 --> 06:15:04.740
do you want to keep that in mind so players and viewers know what that's

06:15:04.740 --> 06:15:05.580
take?

06:15:06.740 --> 06:15:09.900
What kind of sciffs do you reckon getting pulled out for this next map?

06:15:11.620 --> 06:15:15.260
Archer said for your thermal Portuguese, probably Portuguese actually.

06:15:15.260 --> 06:15:16.740
Yeah, maybe Malian.

06:15:16.740 --> 06:15:17.460
Portuguese or Malian?

06:15:17.460 --> 06:15:20.140
It's been his two trusted civilizations so far, I would say.

06:15:22.700 --> 06:15:23.500
Yeah, what's Grubby?

06:15:23.500 --> 06:15:25.820
A pair like Ethiopians probably for Arabia.

06:15:26.340 --> 06:15:27.620
Yeah, it's got Ethiopians.

06:15:27.620 --> 06:15:29.900
He's got, he's got way, but he used them.

06:15:30.220 --> 06:15:32.540
Regendaries could be played in Arabia as well.

06:15:32.540 --> 06:15:34.100
But I would say, I'd probably say that's her.

06:15:34.100 --> 06:15:34.420
We know.

06:15:34.420 --> 06:15:37.020
So I think Ethiopians, what else does he have?

06:15:37.020 --> 06:15:38.260
Actually, maybe Vietnamese.

06:15:39.100 --> 06:15:39.580
I don't know.

06:15:40.460 --> 06:15:41.700
Well, you can do is on Vietnamese.

06:15:42.060 --> 06:15:42.660
He's on Vietnamese.

06:15:42.660 --> 06:15:42.940
Okay.

06:15:44.540 --> 06:15:45.140
I could do is on.

06:15:45.140 --> 06:15:45.740
I don't see what he's on.

06:15:45.740 --> 06:15:46.900
I'm not sure you could.

06:15:47.220 --> 06:15:48.020
Yeah, yeah, it could be.

06:15:48.860 --> 06:15:51.860
Vietnamese definitely been a popular, same among the top players of this

06:15:51.860 --> 06:15:52.340
tournament.

06:15:52.420 --> 06:15:54.540
It just seems like it's got every, everything you want.

06:15:54.940 --> 06:15:55.300
Yeah.

06:15:55.300 --> 06:15:59.860
It's just all it's of and I think making use of the fire lancers. Obviously, they didn't lose that last game

06:15:59.860 --> 06:16:02.820
Yeah, paper money all the money. That's why I take it. Yep

06:16:06.060 --> 06:16:09.540
Yeah, even like sing sing, I know he dropped out, but he was also playing a lot of Vietnamese

06:16:10.420 --> 06:16:14.580
But what's interesting though is like I wonder if either of these players would just pick up the Romans

06:16:14.580 --> 06:16:20.140
The Romans have been a very effective strategy that men are armed fast armor. They're not used to it, but it's not

06:16:21.340 --> 06:16:24.820
These aren't ever true Chad's error. These guys don't have what me and waga have

06:16:25.300 --> 06:16:29.300
That was quite an ancient re-experience.

06:16:29.300 --> 06:16:31.300
That was good.

06:16:31.300 --> 06:16:33.300
Yes, Pip, you kind of faced that head-on.

06:16:33.300 --> 06:16:36.300
The long-sword stamp on Waga didn't last long into it,

06:16:36.300 --> 06:16:39.300
but you did feel the brute force of that one.

06:16:39.300 --> 06:16:42.300
Oh, don't worry. It felt like an eternity on my end.

06:16:42.300 --> 06:16:49.300
Yeah, no, it's one of those things where when someone is able to kind of hit you

06:16:49.300 --> 06:16:53.300
when you're unprepared from attack, it's so effective.

06:16:53.300 --> 06:17:01.620
And you the like difference between a player of my skill and someone of say like above my skill is the ability to adapt to that on the fly and

06:17:01.620 --> 06:17:05.360
She'd be like right. It's okay. It's actually fine. I just quick wall here

06:17:05.360 --> 06:17:09.840
I boxed them in they can't get to me said have to run through my TC. We're fine

06:17:09.840 --> 06:17:14.320
We've rolled with it and that level of like skill amazing

06:17:14.320 --> 06:17:19.000
You know and love to see it. I like how you appreciate the skill set from other players

06:17:19.000 --> 06:17:23.980
I think that's a really good quality to have not good in the game, but it's good as a human being, you know

06:17:23.980 --> 06:17:29.800
It's it's a very well appreciated character. You're yellow points for that because you're top tier

06:17:30.880 --> 06:17:32.880
You live for vibe and appreciation

06:17:33.560 --> 06:17:37.120
I got give you a start at it's indeed an Arabian game and we have the main

06:17:37.560 --> 06:17:41.400
Civilizations from both players if you opens versus Portuguese. Let's get excited for this one

06:17:41.560 --> 06:17:44.920
It's a kind of a must win for your thermal in my opinion because again

06:17:44.920 --> 06:17:50.520
He still has two of Grubby's home maps and I don't think he's gonna be able to beat two arena games away from Grubby

06:17:50.520 --> 06:17:52.680
So he's kind of have to win these Arabi games

06:17:52.680 --> 06:17:58.320
Shout out equalize the score of Grubby in blue as the Ethiopians and your thermal in red as the Portuguese talk with the

06:17:58.320 --> 06:18:01.660
Symmetra at rock and maybe maybe Britain it what do you know about the Symmetra Brit?

06:18:01.660 --> 06:18:03.660
I'll give you the give you the floor first

06:18:04.440 --> 06:18:07.880
So I know that the Portuguese of course Britain's oldest ally

06:18:09.120 --> 06:18:12.280
Shout out to all of the Portuguese. It's great to see you guys

06:18:12.280 --> 06:18:14.680
Thanks for putting up with Brits when we're on holiday.

06:18:14.680 --> 06:18:16.920
You think you guys are great.

06:18:16.920 --> 06:18:19.800
We'll always be there for you little guys.

06:18:19.800 --> 06:18:23.120
And it's great, but most importantly with the Portuguese,

06:18:23.120 --> 06:18:25.720
because of course I know this off the top of my head,

06:18:25.720 --> 06:18:29.240
they have the organ, the lovely organ gun,

06:18:29.240 --> 06:18:32.120
that's a siege weapon, pretty similar to a scorpion,

06:18:32.120 --> 06:18:33.760
and on this map it's going to be really important

06:18:33.760 --> 06:18:35.160
when they whip out the caravell.

06:18:35.160 --> 06:18:36.680
I think that's going to be a real game changer.

06:18:36.680 --> 06:18:38.000
Yes, yes.

06:18:38.000 --> 06:18:39.440
It could make all the difference.

06:18:39.440 --> 06:18:40.920
Absolutely, this is a caravell map for sure.

06:18:40.920 --> 06:18:44.520
Any pawns? Dude, caravall control on the side. That would be insane.

06:18:44.520 --> 06:18:45.520
Absolutely.

06:18:45.520 --> 06:18:49.520
We have corners locked down filled with caravalls.

06:18:49.520 --> 06:18:50.520
They weren't expected.

06:18:50.520 --> 06:18:56.480
Yeah, absolutely. You thermal with the Portuguese here. You know, it's been a stride intensive

06:18:56.480 --> 06:19:00.120
on Arabia. He likes to play towards archers. Of course, maybe the caravall tech in late

06:19:00.120 --> 06:19:05.160
game, but archer opening seems to be his comfort zone. Thumb is playing archers into

06:19:05.160 --> 06:19:09.560
Ethiopians that get archers that fire faster. That could be a little bit of a risky gambit.

06:19:09.560 --> 06:19:13.880
Grubby though his Ethiopians he plays with archers, but he plays a bunch of wacky

06:19:13.880 --> 06:19:18.000
Stadios. He's done forward ranges in his last set against Pig. He lost the game

06:19:18.000 --> 06:19:25.120
But he did try it out. He can play men at arms. He's got a flexible opening or wide range of opening his strategies with Ethiopians

06:19:25.120 --> 06:19:26.640
He's very experienced with them

06:19:26.640 --> 06:19:27.120
Yeah

06:19:27.120 --> 06:19:32.120
I think the most important part of this matchup is that if you took both these players and pick the thing they most played

06:19:32.120 --> 06:19:36.280
It's Arabia and these sims. Yeah, this is the most practiced thing for both players

06:19:36.280 --> 06:19:39.360
So it's kind of like seeing them at their best, which is a pretty cool

06:19:40.840 --> 06:19:43.800
Showdown. Yeah, and talking about what we talked about earlier as well like

06:19:44.440 --> 06:19:48.280
Whoever wins this game is gonna feel like they're the better player because of you know what we talked about there

06:19:48.280 --> 06:19:53.520
That's a huge confidence boost like if grubby wins this he's gonna be feeling great going to that like match points

06:19:53.520 --> 06:19:59.240
If you thermal wins this he'll be like listen, I lost, you know, the the pussy ass four to five, you know

06:19:59.240 --> 06:20:06.280
cheese as walls up stone walls you're grubby on a real man's map can't mash me

06:20:06.280 --> 06:20:11.120
he'll be feeling good at that one one so gotta keep that mental in check grubby's

06:20:11.120 --> 06:20:16.080
board is safe at the back but it's not so safe in you you thermal scout here let's

06:20:16.080 --> 06:20:18.960
see has he lame does anyone successfully lame the board in this tournament

06:20:18.960 --> 06:20:24.080
sing sing he lame that from up from I use it I think it would be sing sing

06:20:24.080 --> 06:20:26.080
I think so

06:20:27.760 --> 06:20:29.760
Aqua he named aqua ridiculous

06:20:37.680 --> 06:20:42.440
A landslide blogger to have you named a man. Oh, that's a legend. What are you doing?

06:20:43.760 --> 06:20:47.240
But the boards the boards caught he's got it. He's got it in he's got it in

06:20:47.240 --> 06:20:57.240
Who would lose a village to a boar?

06:20:57.240 --> 06:20:59.240
Disaster.

06:20:59.240 --> 06:21:05.240
Never seen that in one of your games, that's for sure.

06:21:05.240 --> 06:21:12.240
A little bit of Rot-Maxing going on for Gravy, but no bills that at least, which is decent.

06:21:12.240 --> 06:21:15.000
You can almost take a look at his that town center looking a little bit better actually

06:21:15.000 --> 06:21:19.480
So a small advantage to your thermal in the early game a grubby with one second of idle PC

06:21:19.480 --> 06:21:22.640
I said to keep him up at night. Yep. Yes, sir. He's already behind

06:21:25.000 --> 06:21:30.860
Yeah, I mean you thermal that basically the perfect build so far perfect start everything clean and then look any bad rot

06:21:31.080 --> 06:21:33.080
It's a nice early loom

06:21:33.200 --> 06:21:35.360
We've got an early loom coming up from grubby

06:21:36.160 --> 06:21:40.560
No, regular time actually regular time enough of these players regular time for these players

06:21:40.560 --> 06:21:45.220
It was about 50 minutes, but yeah, I was going to say that doesn't feel like a regular time for this tournament

06:21:45.220 --> 06:21:47.220
Yeah

06:21:47.220 --> 06:21:48.720
Never

06:21:48.720 --> 06:21:54.380
After your voters are dead you get a little free time GG. It's pretty standard

06:21:54.780 --> 06:21:58.940
Yeah, so it looks like you thermals up a few seconds faster itch rock. Why is that the case?

06:21:58.940 --> 06:22:02.960
Why are you guys you put him up a little faster on same pop not a lot of out of TC time?

06:22:02.960 --> 06:22:18.280
Is it maybe because the forages generate wood in addition to food?

06:22:18.280 --> 06:22:19.280
No.

06:22:19.280 --> 06:22:20.280
It's good.

06:22:20.280 --> 06:22:22.280
That is a Portuguese bonus.

06:22:22.280 --> 06:22:26.640
We'll give you two points for that one, but it's actually because the Portuguese research

06:22:26.640 --> 06:22:28.040
texts faster.

06:22:28.040 --> 06:22:30.760
So when they researched lume, it comes in a couple seconds faster.

06:22:30.760 --> 06:22:36.280
Interesting, I had no idea. You were you were prompting me for a tech answer and I was like I think you just played better

06:22:36.280 --> 06:22:40.120
It's a sneaky bonus it gives you like a five second advantage to feudal itch

06:22:40.120 --> 06:22:44.560
Which doesn't matter in most scenarios, but it does sometimes let you get first move with the scout

06:22:44.560 --> 06:22:49.400
So it's kind of interesting. Is he gonna lose this bill? It's so annoying when you're going out to build

06:22:49.400 --> 06:22:55.560
Oh, he doesn't care. It's fine. It's not feel it stay on that maybe. Yes, not feudal. Okay, I think against lowered level players

06:22:55.560 --> 06:22:59.560
You'll stay grubby. They probably experienced enough. Yeah, you'll be fine

06:22:59.560 --> 06:23:02.920
Garby's actually going for the Minot Arms. He's gonna walk his map a little bit behind this.

06:23:02.920 --> 06:23:08.640
He's actually got a kind of a great map to wall off. Easy wall in the corner, easy wall here, here, and then maybe

06:23:08.640 --> 06:23:13.360
it's a bit, you know, a bit much of a distance, but he'll manage that. Minot Arms for the first punch.

06:23:13.360 --> 06:23:18.800
And I think it's stable for you there. Well, he likes to do the stable into range style of Portuguese. See if it works out for him.

06:23:21.040 --> 06:23:24.380
His map's a little more open. Barry's a little exposed.

06:23:24.380 --> 06:23:32.380
definitely Men at Arms can get some play here but he is walling everything up ahead of time, seems like he knows what's coming.

06:23:32.380 --> 06:23:37.380
He knows that my arm's got spotted by the scout calf, I think.

06:23:37.380 --> 06:23:39.380
He knows about them somehow.

06:23:39.380 --> 06:23:41.380
Yeah, because he's preparing for them.

06:23:41.380 --> 06:23:44.380
Like, he wouldn't make these walls if he didn't know the Men at Arms are coming.

06:23:44.380 --> 06:23:46.380
So I think, was the scout calf that scouted that one out?

06:23:46.380 --> 06:23:48.380
Actually, I would like the scout calf to go back.

06:23:48.380 --> 06:23:53.060
What we're gonna set up some arches behind this right now the big storyline is whether or not these a minute arms

06:23:53.060 --> 06:23:57.140
Can get some value after you thermal space basically only the berries that can do something

06:23:57.140 --> 06:24:01.600
It's these two builders in the front of the berries are the weak point. Yeah, you can just nice them

06:24:02.140 --> 06:24:05.500
It's nice. Yeah, you could just walk them away. It's open

06:24:07.100 --> 06:24:13.820
Is that open yes, yeah, that's open. Oh, oh no the door walk outside the bill the wall. It's okay

06:24:13.820 --> 06:24:18.940
She gets away. Yeah, it's okay close, but it's okay. It's good, but he didn't chase you off the berries

06:24:18.940 --> 06:24:22.780
So it's something I mean, it's not like it was a crazy investment from grubby. Yep

06:24:23.100 --> 06:24:27.580
Yeah, he's looking to just trade off against the scouts now you throw more a lot of players

06:24:27.580 --> 06:24:30.500
Especially the pros like to just avoid them in arm fight

06:24:30.500 --> 06:24:34.900
They're just gonna go for the counterattack and I think you throw was thinking the same thing this oh spear coming as well

06:24:34.900 --> 06:24:37.300
It could be a little bit of an interception. We'll see if he gets a hit. Oh

06:24:38.500 --> 06:24:41.980
She's good for both. Oh, he's fighting it

06:24:41.980 --> 06:24:44.620
Good micro too.

06:24:44.620 --> 06:24:48.300
Uh, Grubby's happy with that, they'll get a lot of damage on the scouts.

06:24:48.300 --> 06:24:49.300
Yeah.

06:24:49.300 --> 06:24:54.460
And the minute I'm just hitting this table, probably gonna do a loop.

06:24:54.460 --> 06:24:56.540
The gold is in his nose.

06:24:56.540 --> 06:25:00.380
No one out for Grubby to just go, well, try and do a loop and then Euphoma's gonna go

06:25:00.380 --> 06:25:01.780
on the offense with the scout cap.

06:25:01.780 --> 06:25:02.780
Yeah, this is standard.

06:25:02.780 --> 06:25:06.780
Uh, it's a standard he'll force some spears from Grubby to keep him honest and prevent

06:25:06.780 --> 06:25:09.180
like a super fast cast behind this.

06:25:09.180 --> 06:25:11.780
Maybe he'll slap a couple of bills but if he finds nothing he can always send the scouts

06:25:11.780 --> 06:25:15.500
back to defend remember the mobility here from scouts is the big idea you can

06:25:15.500 --> 06:25:20.540
attack and defend whereas the Minotaur arms are kind of locked in only attack

06:25:22.540 --> 06:25:27.020
yeah I mean it's interesting if he did want to well he could loop the Minotaur

06:25:27.020 --> 06:25:31.460
around once more and get to the goal which is totally open but he's choosing

06:25:31.460 --> 06:25:34.820
not to do that he's staying on this side of the wall he thermal village is an

06:25:34.820 --> 06:25:42.920
a strange villager the scout no he gets it out so some more no damage yes it's

06:25:42.920 --> 06:25:48.220
minimal damage idle DC though from your thermal at 40 seconds potentially oh I

06:25:48.220 --> 06:25:51.740
think he lost some scouts of spear in the middle did kill the spear but he's

06:25:51.740 --> 06:25:55.620
lost two scouts to that so looks like grubby is feeling confident to just move

06:25:55.620 --> 06:26:00.420
out yeah fletching a horse collar coming in so grubby is staying on track with all

06:26:00.420 --> 06:26:04.780
this tax and honestly if there was being forced into skirmishers not where you

06:26:04.780 --> 06:26:07.540
want to be with Portuguese they got a discount on gold units and oh my god

06:26:07.540 --> 06:26:15.220
villagers just left for no reason oh no you thermal classic yeah a villager just

06:26:15.220 --> 06:26:20.300
dying move them out it could sometimes click all those but it'll go down that's

06:26:20.300 --> 06:26:24.740
a bill that first bill kill of the game goes to grubby who's running into some

06:26:24.740 --> 06:26:29.060
scrims those could be nasty oh yeah losing these arches would help by you

06:26:29.060 --> 06:26:31.860
thermal stabilize

06:26:34.780 --> 06:26:40.200
Uh, dang, it's actually pretty good pressure from Grubby in that, like, he's not spending

06:26:40.200 --> 06:26:44.540
too much money, he's just doing a minimal amount of stuff to put pressure on and make

06:26:44.540 --> 06:26:45.540
yours a bit uncomfortable.

06:26:45.540 --> 06:26:47.540
Yeah, excellent micro, Grubby.

06:26:47.540 --> 06:26:48.540
Excellent micro.

06:26:48.540 --> 06:26:50.660
Yeah, he's just like doing more.

06:26:50.660 --> 06:26:52.780
Yeah, he's also pressuring the arms.

06:26:52.780 --> 06:26:55.180
The arms kill the scout, this is fantastic.

06:26:55.180 --> 06:26:58.740
You might even kill an archer, he's getting so much value from units that should be past

06:26:58.740 --> 06:26:59.740
their prime.

06:26:59.740 --> 06:27:02.380
A bit of an opening here in the woodline that this villager could be in trouble.

06:27:02.380 --> 06:27:04.800
It's even archers do fire faster. He's gonna kill that villager

06:27:04.800 --> 06:27:08.980
It's the second kill of the game terms of villagers another couple of you thermal villagers

06:27:08.980 --> 06:27:10.980
It's been the problem for him all the time

06:27:10.980 --> 06:27:15.780
Yeah, and you combine that with the iltc now grubby's got a three or four villager lead

06:27:16.220 --> 06:27:17.660
Yeah

06:27:17.660 --> 06:27:23.460
Which is just a great feudal to be among two equal players three or four villager leaders like almost all you can ask for

06:27:23.460 --> 06:27:25.460
That's other things going crazy

06:27:26.460 --> 06:27:29.460
Archers on the field soon more grubby going to castle pretty soon

06:27:29.460 --> 06:27:34.960
Yeah, it's always in the back of the mind, so Grubby has almost like kind of full walls, not quite.

06:27:34.960 --> 06:27:40.960
I think you really should close that off just to play it safe, but full walls, you can always decide to cut production, mark it and up.

06:27:40.960 --> 06:27:45.960
You have these, you know, windows where you can just squeeze Castle Age instead of committing more to feudal age.

06:27:45.960 --> 06:27:49.960
But if you're not walled and you do it, it could be risky, but, you know, Grubby smartly walls up here.

06:27:49.960 --> 06:27:51.960
That's very, very smart. I like that.

06:27:51.960 --> 06:28:00.320
by the way thank you to pig for the raid pig is sitting pretty in the grand

06:28:00.320 --> 06:28:04.520
finals I don't know if pig is gonna go to sleep now or what but pig congrats on

06:28:04.520 --> 06:28:10.480
a great tournament so far shout out to pig in the chat he is the finals he's

06:28:10.480 --> 06:28:13.800
the best player the tournament so far but he's got to get one more set done to

06:28:13.800 --> 06:28:16.600
take take the whole thing home and right now we're just fighting amongst the

06:28:16.600 --> 06:28:20.520
losers to figure out who's worthy enough to step up the pig again but pig is the

06:28:20.520 --> 06:28:22.960
the only guy undefeated in tournament so far.

06:28:22.960 --> 06:28:24.280
Did you decide there's an advantage?

06:28:24.280 --> 06:28:27.400
If Pig is able to rest up, then his opponent

06:28:27.400 --> 06:28:29.920
kind of has to basically play a best of five

06:28:29.920 --> 06:28:32.000
straight into another best of five, right?

06:28:32.000 --> 06:28:32.960
Yes, exactly that.

06:28:32.960 --> 06:28:34.560
So HROK is talking about advantage as well,

06:28:34.560 --> 06:28:36.520
and Spiffing Brit has called it.

06:28:36.520 --> 06:28:38.240
It's the advantage of the rested.

06:28:38.240 --> 06:28:40.320
So Pig gets to rest, he gets to watch his opponents,

06:28:40.320 --> 06:28:41.600
he gets to practice and builds.

06:28:41.600 --> 06:28:43.880
He can do whatever he wants in the next few hours.

06:28:43.880 --> 06:28:45.160
There's no actual advantage though

06:28:45.160 --> 06:28:46.200
to answer your question, HROK.

06:28:46.200 --> 06:28:50.120
There's no like map win, there's no like draft advantage.

06:28:50.120 --> 06:28:51.720
Honestly, I don't really like those too much.

06:28:51.720 --> 06:28:53.640
I would have maybe done a small advantage,

06:28:53.640 --> 06:28:55.600
but I like just the resting being enough.

06:28:55.600 --> 06:28:56.440
And then that's fine.

06:28:56.440 --> 06:28:58.920
That's the best of five for it all, it makes sense.

06:28:58.920 --> 06:29:00.120
It'll be so good at this, by the way.

06:29:00.120 --> 06:29:02.360
It's one of his scariest attributes.

06:29:02.360 --> 06:29:03.560
He takes small amounts of archers

06:29:03.560 --> 06:29:05.040
and he puts them all around your base

06:29:05.040 --> 06:29:07.160
and he makes you lose the bills,

06:29:07.160 --> 06:29:09.680
get uncomfortable, panic your economy.

06:29:09.680 --> 06:29:12.960
It's just, he's so good at doing multiple attacks at once

06:29:12.960 --> 06:29:14.440
with little armies he doesn't care about.

06:29:14.440 --> 06:29:17.880
He doesn't mind if he loses these, but they do damage.

06:29:17.880 --> 06:29:18.720
Yeah.

06:29:18.720 --> 06:29:19.840
And he's often good at keeping them alive.

06:29:19.840 --> 06:29:22.480
Like you wouldn't throw them away, like a lot of times people get caught up in like

06:29:22.480 --> 06:29:26.160
okay I'll put forward four archers here, they just leave them, they die, they get no time,

06:29:26.160 --> 06:29:29.560
they don't really buy much, they might kill a villager but then you lose them so fast.

06:29:29.560 --> 06:29:32.920
But Grubby's gonna run them back, kind of bother you Thermal, he might even loop them

06:29:32.920 --> 06:29:34.360
around and go for another raid.

06:29:34.360 --> 06:29:38.280
But speaking of these raids, you Thermal actually hit a nice raid behind Grubby's Woodland,

06:29:38.280 --> 06:29:40.600
forced a lot of villagers to reposition.

06:29:40.600 --> 06:29:43.320
And by the way, it's kind of an even game.

06:29:43.320 --> 06:29:47.480
Grubby's got Fyokshir Villager, sure, up to Castleage a little bit faster, okay, but

06:29:47.480 --> 06:29:53.360
Thermal is also to Castle Age and they're both just timing range units and skirmishes from your Thermal technically counter archers

06:29:53.360 --> 06:29:57.080
He's in a decent position somehow. Yeah, I'm surprised by this

06:29:57.080 --> 06:30:03.680
He's really kind of pulled it back the fact there's so few seconds between their Castle Age despite the idle TC time despite the

06:30:03.680 --> 06:30:07.000
Village of Difference despite the harassing pretty good plays

06:30:07.360 --> 06:30:10.880
Yeah, it's almost like a question mark as to why that's the case like grubby

06:30:11.400 --> 06:30:16.360
I don't think he's been solid rest collected. It's a bit ahead, but somehow we just have less in the tank

06:30:16.360 --> 06:30:21.040
I'm gonna go for the second range right now and maybe maybe we've lost a few extra units

06:30:21.040 --> 06:30:28.280
Yeah, one thing that's strange is that grubius not yet got bid ex 21 minutes is okay of a wild upgrade to miss

06:30:28.360 --> 06:30:33.020
Yeah, I think he's forgotten about that because you never get horse collar over bid ex. That's like a Cardinal sin

06:30:33.400 --> 06:30:36.640
It looks like he's forgotten about but bid ex that could be one of the reasons why

06:30:37.360 --> 06:30:42.080
He's you know gotten a even castle time despite the village advantage second range for him though is nice

06:30:42.080 --> 06:30:48.220
You can catch up in these archer and skirmish numbers, but you can almost closing in on these range units

06:30:48.220 --> 06:30:52.600
And I think you thermals actually doing quite well. You might even be considered to be winning right now somehow

06:30:53.540 --> 06:30:59.260
Would you say that really and we still down five bills? That's pretty big for this time of game. I value like in the archer

06:30:59.260 --> 06:31:03.140
The archer I've valued the momentum because here's the thing like five villagers doesn't really matter

06:31:03.140 --> 06:31:06.880
If you've got five villagers just sitting idle at a woodland or five leaders running back and forth

06:31:06.880 --> 06:31:10.620
And it's just when the siege comes in the siege can be such an asymmetrical swing

06:31:10.620 --> 06:31:13.260
If you just get a nice shot with some manganose kill a bunch of units

06:31:13.420 --> 06:31:18.700
So those five villages are just spending your resources on build on units that are dying to manganose and whatnot

06:31:18.700 --> 06:31:25.820
So momentum for me in an archer war super super important for siege using that momentum beautifully you thermal is I like this bush

06:31:25.820 --> 06:31:27.580
I think it's solid

06:31:27.580 --> 06:31:29.580
Yeah, there's the forward siege

06:31:29.660 --> 06:31:34.460
Yeah, I think this budget you get rocket carts, or is it there are also manganose. It's double manganose

06:31:34.860 --> 06:31:39.380
What's the kind of vibe around the rocket car? You're a fan of it or kind of we're it seems

06:31:40.620 --> 06:31:43.120
Super strong to me, but I don't play him so I don't know if they're weak

06:31:43.120 --> 06:31:45.440
It just seems like a better manganal, but maybe I'm dead wrong

06:31:45.440 --> 06:31:49.980
I want to know more about my opponents use them. They're too strong when I use them there too weak

06:31:49.980 --> 06:31:54.300
That's exactly what I'm thinking. I actually agree with that by the way. I 100% agree with that

06:31:54.540 --> 06:31:56.540
That's exactly my opinion. I'm not joking

06:31:57.660 --> 06:32:02.960
Opponents rock a cart the unkillable my rock card does zero damage. It's ridiculous. So yeah, that's kind of my vibes

06:32:02.960 --> 06:32:08.540
Please fix I usually just like to have a manganal. I'm kind of a purist. I want a manganal

06:32:08.540 --> 06:32:13.540
I want a knight. I don't want an elephant. I don't want a rocket park. Yeah, it was a classic, you know.

06:32:13.540 --> 06:32:15.540
Everything from 2001, yes.

06:32:15.540 --> 06:32:17.540
Yes, that's what I want, bro.

06:32:17.540 --> 06:32:21.540
How I grew up with the game is how I want to play it right now, but these UDLCs are killing me.

06:32:23.540 --> 06:32:28.540
Alright, well, two archer players going head-to-head in an archer war in the height of Castle Age.

06:32:28.540 --> 06:32:32.540
Where's that village we're gonna go up front? Is that gonna be a forward tower?

06:32:32.540 --> 06:32:34.540
Just got a lot of confidence.

06:32:34.540 --> 06:32:36.540
It's gonna be a thermal villager just like going to die.

06:32:36.540 --> 06:32:39.540
It's impossible that it's not building anything at all.

06:32:39.540 --> 06:32:40.540
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

06:32:40.540 --> 06:32:41.540
Maybe repairs.

06:32:41.540 --> 06:32:44.620
Maybe repairs in the manganole, maybe you thermal, maybe stuck in the control group.

06:32:44.620 --> 06:32:46.620
I think usually what you do is you make houses.

06:32:46.620 --> 06:32:47.620
Yeah, there we go.

06:32:47.620 --> 06:32:49.340
And then you come in for the repair when needed.

06:32:49.340 --> 06:32:50.340
Mangalore v.

06:32:50.340 --> 06:32:51.340
Mangalore?

06:32:51.340 --> 06:32:52.340
Very important guys.

06:32:52.340 --> 06:32:54.340
The manganole has 295 resources.

06:32:54.340 --> 06:32:57.060
Killing the opponent's manganole and keeping yours alive is super important.

06:32:57.060 --> 06:32:58.060
Here we go.

06:32:58.060 --> 06:32:59.060
Get some value.

06:32:59.060 --> 06:33:00.060
That villager is dead.

06:33:00.060 --> 06:33:01.060
You thermal classic.

06:33:01.060 --> 06:33:04.060
Oh, we're just going to split.

06:33:04.060 --> 06:33:05.060
Oh.

06:33:05.060 --> 06:33:06.300
I think we're going to get it yet.

06:33:06.300 --> 06:33:14.100
The Manganon micro, so hard to do, I have not learned it at all, and it's so important

06:33:14.100 --> 06:33:18.500
because if the Manganon start winning versus each other, it's snowballed so quickly.

06:33:18.500 --> 06:33:22.240
Yeah, and by the way, so far a major advantage you thermo is kill a couple units and snipe

06:33:22.240 --> 06:33:24.740
the Manganon due to superior archer micro.

06:33:24.740 --> 06:33:27.860
Grubby is on the back foot with skirmishers and I talked about this being his weakest

06:33:27.860 --> 06:33:28.860
position.

06:33:28.860 --> 06:33:32.380
I don't like when he gives it to map control, but at least this time he's not trying to

06:33:32.380 --> 06:33:35.020
boom of that extra town center at least he's trying to fight it back with with

06:33:35.020 --> 06:33:38.740
ballistics with magnetals so grubby's doing what he needs to do which is great

06:33:38.740 --> 06:33:44.860
but he is getting outplaced outpace and outplayed so far huge for grubby yeah

06:33:44.860 --> 06:33:51.540
so big if that gets dodged this snowball is a lot harder

06:33:51.940 --> 06:33:56.140
no ballistics no ballistics for your thermal whereas ballistics is coming in

06:33:56.140 --> 06:33:59.820
that's attack that lets you shoot to move in targets with all range units but

06:33:59.820 --> 06:34:04.820
It's getting a lot here grubby loses the mega now. That's terrible. You got to go back

06:34:08.100 --> 06:34:10.100
Trying to snipe it with scurms

06:34:10.820 --> 06:34:15.100
She's doing a pretty good job and I do my from here, but what the same time loses his own

06:34:16.060 --> 06:34:18.500
Losing our man. Oh, yes. Oh my god

06:34:19.740 --> 06:34:22.140
Grubby's lost everything grubby has lost everything

06:34:23.060 --> 06:34:25.060
It's going crazy. He's all

06:34:25.500 --> 06:34:27.500
on the right push

06:34:27.500 --> 06:34:31.180
I placed a bet on you, Firmal. I knew it.

06:34:31.180 --> 06:34:33.780
I knew it.

06:34:33.780 --> 06:34:38.780
This is huge, fitting with the leading most paid, you know?

06:34:38.780 --> 06:34:40.940
He's made so much money, though.

06:34:40.940 --> 06:34:45.540

06:34:45.540 --> 06:34:49.460
This range is going to go down. The Magnos, you can't really clear them without your own Magnos.

06:34:49.460 --> 06:34:53.300
So Grubby, despite it not working, he's just locked in to doing more of the same.

06:34:53.300 --> 06:34:55.100
And it's unfortunate to be on the back foot here.

06:34:55.100 --> 06:34:58.720
You thermal is just so solid with his siege archer micro

06:34:59.340 --> 06:35:04.660
Yeah, I mean if these manganelles get on grubby siege workshop and take it down. That's you're out of options

06:35:04.660 --> 06:35:06.760
Yeah, once that hits that I

06:35:07.460 --> 06:35:12.140
Do like this from the money like three ranges are wrestling there from you formal

06:35:13.140 --> 06:35:15.140
The two the two crossbows

06:35:16.140 --> 06:35:19.860
For that, but he's doing the same thing actually doing the he's doing the almost even better

06:35:20.780 --> 06:35:22.780
That's oh

06:35:22.780 --> 06:35:28.380
Okay, I will say guys, Valkyrie is actually even, more or less, right?

06:35:28.380 --> 06:35:32.060
If Grubby can actually stabilize, he's got some ballistics, you can move out, pick up these

06:35:32.060 --> 06:35:36.700
stray units, push back across the map, you just need a little bit of momentum and some good plays

06:35:36.700 --> 06:35:41.500
with your Magnos. This game is still even, more or less, in terms of economy, so keep that in mind

06:35:41.500 --> 06:35:45.020
as we see these next few fights unfold, keep in mind though as well at the same time,

06:35:45.020 --> 06:35:49.340
we have three Magnos to one, so the advantage is in your thermal side.

06:35:49.340 --> 06:35:58.060
Yeah, but in the in the background grubby got the second wood upgrade and horsecaller both of which you thermal doesn't have

06:35:58.060 --> 06:36:01.620
Yep, though with the same number of bills grubby's actually getting a lot more resources

06:36:02.780 --> 06:36:09.300
Man them though a big thing and you can almost getting first move on to this wood line some skirmishers to defend with full upgrades

06:36:09.300 --> 06:36:13.640
Scrumper's just kind of hold the line a little bit here. It's not too bad. You can also try to pin through these guys

06:36:15.300 --> 06:36:17.300
Look at this though. This is beautiful

06:36:19.340 --> 06:36:26.500
Yeah, those those two crossbows are so annoying. You have to run 15 villains with the gold. Oh

06:36:27.260 --> 06:36:30.780
That's such a frustrating experience getting an archer across the map

06:36:30.780 --> 06:36:34.440
I hope this guy can deal with it for grubby steak, but if you throw a mic

06:36:35.740 --> 06:36:38.240
Yeah, Firm was also split up his micro

06:36:39.220 --> 06:36:44.340
He knows his opponent only as one so he's kind of trying to pressure multiple sides of the map at the same time

06:36:44.380 --> 06:36:46.380
Yeah, super smart. I mean

06:36:46.380 --> 06:36:52.220
Grubby is doing the thing that is the worst feeling in the world where you have this mass migration of bills all over your base

06:36:52.220 --> 06:36:57.800
You walk all the way across and then you're being harassed there you walk all the way across again. Yeah, everybody's idle. It just feels terrible

06:36:58.660 --> 06:37:01.920
Yeah, there's poor villagers. You gotta get back to work

06:37:01.980 --> 06:37:05.660
They want to work active with your defense though. Like you can't defend behind your woodlands

06:37:05.660 --> 06:37:10.420
You got to break the wall and get out here because if you just stay behind here like you thermal can choose to fight or not and

06:37:10.700 --> 06:37:13.420
Grubby never actually dealing with any problem. He's just kind of delaying it

06:37:13.420 --> 06:37:15.540
Which is not great on defense loses the manganal. Oh

06:37:16.540 --> 06:37:18.340
Narrow when used for grobby. That's crazy

06:37:19.100 --> 06:37:23.180
You throw was a little as though you screamed at me during a lot of practice games

06:37:23.180 --> 06:37:27.460
You said if this situation delete your wall get your scurns outside of it and try to push them away

06:37:27.460 --> 06:37:30.660
Yeah, because if you're stuck on the inside you'll get you get torn apart

06:37:30.660 --> 06:37:35.580
It's you are getting coaching from the best a2 player is not a bad thing stop acting like the victim because I'm screaming at you

06:37:35.580 --> 06:37:40.580
You deserved every single yell that I did in the coach. No, it's didn't coach me. I didn't he wasn't available

06:37:40.580 --> 06:37:43.300
I didn't get any help from Lewis. You I got the second best a2 player to help me out

06:37:43.420 --> 06:37:45.420
He was pretty good, and he streamed to me a lot.

06:37:46.060 --> 06:37:48.380
But unfortunately, I kept asking and I just couldn't get...

06:37:48.380 --> 06:37:48.940
That's good!

06:37:48.940 --> 06:37:52.300
Hey Chuck, when you're awake, when you're awake, you have some good bathroom, alright?

06:37:52.300 --> 06:37:54.540
It's good to see, you just have to wake up more.

06:37:54.540 --> 06:37:55.820
You got some good bathroom, that's good.

06:37:55.820 --> 06:37:58.220
I can't wait for Kings Gauntlet 2 to be at 6am!

06:37:58.220 --> 06:37:58.940
That way I can...

06:38:03.340 --> 06:38:05.500
There's a monk, by the way. This monk is just...

06:38:05.500 --> 06:38:06.300
That's a monk!

06:38:06.940 --> 06:38:08.940
Dude, brother loves relics, but it doesn't matter what he's...

06:38:08.940 --> 06:38:10.540
He's always gonna go for it.

06:38:10.540 --> 06:38:11.340
Yeah.

06:38:11.340 --> 06:38:15.420
There's a lot of villagers. Yeah, it's just pain and your thermal bounces back

06:38:16.220 --> 06:38:20.060
Dominic game very impressive game just to be honest. That was a really good

06:38:21.180 --> 06:38:28.700
You know bestive versus bestive Arabia. Definitely a statement game from your thermal funny thing is I don't think the channel point scrub heads

06:38:32.620 --> 06:38:35.580
Cash it on the background just forming the grub heads

06:38:38.140 --> 06:38:40.140
Getting generational channel point wealth

06:38:40.140 --> 06:38:46.440
Grubby actually did a pretty good game here. Like, remember, he was up 4 or 5 bills from that feudal age.

06:38:46.440 --> 06:38:52.340
He had a good position on his best sieve, and he kind of just got outpaced and outplayed by Euthanomal's Mango Micro.

06:38:52.340 --> 06:38:57.340
It snowballed beautifully for Euthanomal. Grubby did the right thing to come back, which is nice to see.

06:38:57.340 --> 06:38:59.840
It's nice to see Euthanomal at least got that game knowledge.

06:38:59.840 --> 06:39:04.840
However, it's tough. It's always hard to do it against someone as talented as Euthanomal with that Archer Crossbow,

06:39:04.840 --> 06:39:07.640
or like that Crossbow Siege Micro. They're so good at.

06:39:07.640 --> 06:39:11.720
The one thing Grubby was missing though is that active defense. Break the walls, defend out here.

06:39:11.720 --> 06:39:15.480
If not, you're going to get just completely abused over those walls and

06:39:15.480 --> 06:39:20.600
great play from your thermal. It's a nice classic 1-DT economy behind it. Not great, but again,

06:39:20.600 --> 06:39:22.520
keep the push, keep the push alive and he's up the road with that.

06:39:22.520 --> 06:39:27.080
So do you think after this game, do you think that Grubby has been successfully bullied off of

06:39:27.080 --> 06:39:31.000
Arabia? Do you think he's all in now on picking Arena or Fortress?

06:39:31.000 --> 06:39:33.960
That's a great point. You can't pick Fortress. It's only Arabia Arena.

06:39:33.960 --> 06:39:36.840
Okay. Oh, it's Arabia. I didn't know that. Interesting.

06:39:36.840 --> 06:39:38.840
You're probably sleeping last time, yeah

06:39:47.240 --> 06:39:51.700
It was all set in a very non confusing settings video by the way, you've seen it

06:39:52.200 --> 06:39:55.280
No, yeah, I'm sorry. I missed the second hour of that

06:39:57.880 --> 06:39:59.880
Explanation video, I'm so sorry

06:40:00.680 --> 06:40:02.680
I took a nap

06:40:02.680 --> 06:40:08.320
You're not confusing at all settings video. You can only pick Arabia or arena. So grubby, but it's okay

06:40:08.320 --> 06:40:10.880
It's your point you made a good point actually a truck is grubby

06:40:11.560 --> 06:40:18.320
Confident enough to bounce back on Arabia or did you just take you thermal to arena where you thermal hates arena and grubby's not bad on

06:40:18.320 --> 06:40:22.920
I mean, I think you've asked grubby, which you prefer he probably prefers Arabia, but your thermal hates arena

06:40:22.920 --> 06:40:27.040
So maybe you just take them there and see what's good. I think that's the correct way

06:40:27.040 --> 06:40:29.040
I think arena would be correct choice, honestly

06:40:29.040 --> 06:40:35.480
Okay, and if we were to go to Arena, what kind of civs were we seeing from Grubby?

06:40:35.480 --> 06:40:39.120
Because evidently, you know, he's kind of then back in the driver's seat, you can wipe

06:40:39.120 --> 06:40:41.320
away that loss.

06:40:41.320 --> 06:40:44.360
What kind of like pocket civs are you going to pull out?

06:40:44.360 --> 06:40:47.040
He's played pretty much only the Burgundians.

06:40:47.040 --> 06:40:50.440
He's been a little bit of Hindustani on the Arena, but I think he's main civ by far as

06:40:50.440 --> 06:40:51.440
Burgundians.

06:40:51.440 --> 06:40:54.720
Now, it's a bit predictable if you pick it, but Burgundians is kind of an all-rounder.

06:40:54.720 --> 06:40:56.600
It's just good at everything on Arena.

06:40:56.600 --> 06:41:00.380
So you're not really that scared about picking it up, even if it's a bit predictable.

06:41:00.380 --> 06:41:01.700
You thermal is the wild card.

06:41:01.700 --> 06:41:03.800
I don't know what he's going to go for.

06:41:03.800 --> 06:41:05.300
He's also played a bit of Burgundians.

06:41:05.300 --> 06:41:08.860
In a wild world, we could see a Burgundian mirror, which could be kind of fun because

06:41:08.860 --> 06:41:12.420
you haven't seen a single mirror in this tournament despite it being possible every game, which

06:41:12.420 --> 06:41:13.420
is kind of fun.

06:41:13.420 --> 06:41:20.380
Yeah, Burgundians have done rather poorly so far in this tournament, despite being picked

06:41:20.380 --> 06:41:22.060
a lot on like the wall maps.

06:41:22.060 --> 06:41:24.980
Yeah, I think it would be nice to be able to showcase there.

06:41:24.980 --> 06:41:29.060
He means have been doing better like the castle drops have been doing better than the Burgundians

06:41:29.060 --> 06:41:32.700
But we're going to actually just snag the win in the last in the last match for Lance

06:41:33.060 --> 06:41:37.060
Grubby won against pig with Burgundians on his last match

06:41:37.060 --> 06:41:41.860
So didn't snag it some more wins recently, but I do agree that overall win rate hasn't been that great

06:41:43.060 --> 06:41:47.780
And who can forget the fact that you know, they have those vineyards those lovely lovely vineyards

06:41:48.180 --> 06:41:50.180
Look at that view count. Geez

06:41:50.660 --> 06:41:53.900
Solid that's pretty good. You've been streamer. I know

06:41:53.900 --> 06:41:57.100
I know I just needed 20 other streamers to make it happen, but hey

06:41:57.100 --> 06:42:04.040
We're here. It's easy. I make sure to find your twitch prime subs to to the wonderful host

06:42:04.220 --> 06:42:06.220
Love it, bro. You got him

06:42:06.300 --> 06:42:10.000
Empty the bag put the twitch primes in the back the primes in the bag

06:42:13.620 --> 06:42:15.180
No guys, thank you so much for being here

06:42:15.180 --> 06:42:18.900
I think we're peaking like 25k on just our channel load and we're not even in the grand finals

06:42:18.900 --> 06:42:19.700
Which is fantastic

06:42:19.700 --> 06:42:23.300
So I do really appreciate you guys hanging out with us and also thank you you guys hrock

06:42:23.300 --> 06:42:28.040
Smith and Brett showing up after the tournament has been over for you guys, but showed up and giving a good cast here

06:42:28.040 --> 06:42:30.040
I think the viewers really appreciate it as well

06:42:30.540 --> 06:42:32.540
Okay, you pay us the big bucks

06:42:37.540 --> 06:42:39.540
It's really

06:42:39.540 --> 06:42:43.840
You know what I'm saying, that amount of money is so life-changing I have to be here

06:42:43.840 --> 06:42:51.240
I mean, there'll be a time here where both atruck and I will summon you for some similar nonsense and you are like

06:42:51.240 --> 06:42:56.300
contractually obliged to be there and commentate whatever we're doing I'll show

06:42:56.300 --> 06:42:59.700
up for anything I've had a work after that and everything I gave my life I'll

06:42:59.700 --> 06:43:03.220
play league I'll play with I'll play board games I'll play anything just some

06:43:03.220 --> 06:43:07.300
of me I'll be there so I hit man I'll be a truck are you are you married I am

06:43:07.300 --> 06:43:11.220
married yeah okay I was gonna say we could bring him out for a wedding that

06:43:11.220 --> 06:43:18.180
would be good fun I'm sorry so if I wasn't married you were gonna volunteer

06:43:18.180 --> 06:43:23.220
me to marry Hera? No, I was going to volunteer that we get him to officiate your wedding, but also

06:43:25.300 --> 06:43:30.900
that's better. I just would make him the pastor. Guys, guys, talking about wedding when Grubby's

06:43:30.900 --> 06:43:34.260
playing. Come on now. I got to stay faithful here. Come on now. Yes.

06:43:36.340 --> 06:43:39.940
Poor Roxy. Roxy, we feel for you. We all feel for you.

06:43:40.660 --> 06:43:46.340
Roxy badgers in his mouth. No big deal. But listen, guys, Burgundians versus Bohemians,

06:43:46.340 --> 06:43:52.580
meta matchup, a pro matchup, talk to me about the SIVs or anything while I set up the camps,

06:43:52.580 --> 06:43:57.060
nevermind it's completely done, I'll take it from here guys. For Gumbians, for Grubby, he likes to

06:43:57.060 --> 06:44:00.820
play with the live cap and play for the Relic Control, and he thinks, well thanks for picking

06:44:00.820 --> 06:44:04.740
Arena, I'm a specialist actually. Well, he jokes about being a bad arena player, but he's picked

06:44:04.740 --> 06:44:09.540
up the Bohemians here, and Bohemians are one of the best SIVs, if not the best SIVs, the best SIV

06:44:09.540 --> 06:44:14.340
on Arena due to their strong late game gunpowder, a really good economy, great monks, and a great

06:44:14.340 --> 06:44:20.020
balance composition over what grubby did i love doing that when someone on ladder tries to banter

06:44:20.020 --> 06:44:26.660
with you and you hit him with a glhf it's like shut the fuck up it's really good it's like the

06:44:26.660 --> 06:44:32.820
nicest way to say like i don't want to talk i'm here yeah it's on like a work out ladder all

06:44:32.820 --> 06:44:36.580
the time it was like hey oh i saw you in the tour and i'm like glhf and i'm not gonna respond to

06:44:36.580 --> 06:44:40.900
you again that's all i'm being polite but i don't want to talk i just want to play

06:44:40.900 --> 06:44:48.900
No, it's a moment where Hruck was not streaming. We're doing some off-stream practice games in H1P2.

06:44:48.900 --> 06:44:52.900
Then he gets messaged against a guy who says, he pauses and he's like,

06:44:52.900 --> 06:44:57.900
I gotta close the stream. Like, brother, Hruck's not streaming. What stream are you closing?

06:44:57.900 --> 06:45:00.900
Absolutely hilarious. Hruck came with a good luck out front immediately.

06:45:00.900 --> 06:45:02.900
Yeah, that's all I say.

06:45:02.900 --> 06:45:05.900
I don't want to get screen-shotted yelling at him or something.

06:45:05.900 --> 06:45:08.900
I just say, I'm mute, bro. I move on.

06:45:08.900 --> 06:45:30.900
Uh, so it's good fun, but okay, we got this matchup. I do. I mean, you know, you thermal is, uh, I think it's weakness on arena is not that he's a bad place. He's amazing player, but that he picked bohemians and you know his plan. All he wants to do is have nothing happen. Get to the late game, get the hoof knees and the upgraded, the how many years and then a move into your base with

06:45:30.900 --> 06:45:34.300
And it's a great plan, it's a strong plan, but you know what it is.

06:45:34.300 --> 06:45:38.100
And so people have, you know, Captain Lance famously, but you can, you can exploit that

06:45:38.100 --> 06:45:39.100
a bit.

06:45:39.100 --> 06:45:40.100
You can attack on weird timings.

06:45:40.100 --> 06:45:44.260
You can try to get around it and would you expect Grubby to do that?

06:45:44.260 --> 06:45:45.260
Would you really think?

06:45:45.260 --> 06:45:46.260
Not really?

06:45:46.260 --> 06:45:47.260
No, you're right.

06:45:47.260 --> 06:45:49.260
I think Grubby's going to play as standard as possible and just beat him straight up.

06:45:49.260 --> 06:45:50.260
Yeah.

06:45:50.260 --> 06:45:54.660
Which is playing at least, but by the way, it's going to be tough exploiting your opponent's

06:45:54.660 --> 06:45:56.140
weaknesses or habits.

06:45:56.140 --> 06:46:00.660
There's been a record low of exploiting Grubby's slow, Burgundian start, like seriously, like

06:46:00.660 --> 06:46:03.220
In the finals, if Grubby makes it past this,

06:46:03.220 --> 06:46:05.980
a captain Lance might actually expose his Burgundians pick

06:46:05.980 --> 06:46:07.140
with some kind of forward castle,

06:46:07.140 --> 06:46:10.020
because Burgundians famously have to go up one or two pop later

06:46:10.020 --> 06:46:11.260
because they're gonna play the light cab.

06:46:11.260 --> 06:46:13.180
And also, you're trying to pick up the eco upgrades.

06:46:13.180 --> 06:46:14.220
It's a greedy approach.

06:46:14.220 --> 06:46:16.340
It's very good, but it can be hard punished

06:46:16.340 --> 06:46:17.660
with like a forward castle or something.

06:46:17.660 --> 06:46:21.100
So, I just feel like you thermal with the Bohemians,

06:46:21.100 --> 06:46:22.460
it's a bit predictable, H-Rock,

06:46:22.460 --> 06:46:24.580
because we know his style is to play through its late game,

06:46:24.580 --> 06:46:26.420
but he can easily just mix it up,

06:46:26.420 --> 06:46:28.020
go for that forward castle himself,

06:46:28.020 --> 06:46:29.620
and just start on a site wagon all in

06:46:29.620 --> 06:46:33.180
haunted grubby's but that's what I'm saying it's not you can't do that you

06:46:33.180 --> 06:46:37.780
thermal basically cannot change on that front he I would bet dollars the

06:46:37.780 --> 06:46:42.140
donuts bro he's gonna do his plan yeah yeah it's gotta be on it's gotta be

06:46:42.140 --> 06:46:45.380
unlikely because especially when you're in a map you're slightly more

06:46:45.380 --> 06:46:50.060
uncomfortable with right you know grubby's confident with it I mean sure

06:46:50.060 --> 06:46:53.380
there is the classic thing of you go all in you try something different and

06:46:53.380 --> 06:46:57.220
see how it rolls but as Hera has been saying for most of this tournament

06:46:57.220 --> 06:47:01.240
Stick with what you know and what you practice. Don't try and deviate too much

06:47:01.940 --> 06:47:05.180
Yeah, that's kind of a good point and I think overall I still kind of believe in that

06:47:05.700 --> 06:47:10.440
Still wish you know with a bit of preparation. We could see something a little spicy, but you know fair enough

06:47:10.440 --> 06:47:13.920
I'm okay with this obviously grab his home up. I'm okay with you thermal playing what's comfortable

06:47:13.920 --> 06:47:17.840
And if he's comfortable just boom in which it looks like he is nothing too spicy happening so far

06:47:18.220 --> 06:47:21.680
Then we'll see exactly that maybe a late game. Nice a nice late game battle

06:47:23.740 --> 06:47:27.100
Yeah, I mean it's really powerful late game battle

06:47:27.220 --> 06:47:33.260
Unlike the other map Regicide Fortress where there's so much space and you can kind of run around in the way

06:47:33.260 --> 06:47:37.180
Grevy did you kind of have to fight on this map. It's a it's a straight shot to the pump space

06:47:37.180 --> 06:47:44.660
It's flat land no hills and you could just get a forward castle and push push push. Yeah, so I think it's better for you thermals

06:47:45.580 --> 06:47:52.300
Solid comp solid style. Yeah, so if you were to if you put a twitch points prediction, you'd actually put it into you formal

06:47:52.300 --> 06:47:58.300
I would never bet against you. Every game has been rigged in your favor.

06:47:58.300 --> 06:48:02.300
I prefer to bet against Grubby.

06:48:02.300 --> 06:48:08.300
A favorite Grubby, I'll tell you why. Grubby with the Burgundians has beaten Bohemians from Pig yesterday in his last set.

06:48:08.300 --> 06:48:15.300
And also Pig is a practiced Bohemian player on Arena. He's played a bunch of games with Bohemians and he knows what he's doing.

06:48:15.300 --> 06:48:17.140
your thermal, nothing he doesn't know what he's doing,

06:48:17.140 --> 06:48:19.300
just saying he's maybe not as practiced as Pig.

06:48:19.300 --> 06:48:21.500
And so Grubby must be feeling at least very confident.

06:48:21.500 --> 06:48:23.860
It's the safe bet, he's the favorite.

06:48:23.860 --> 06:48:25.620
But maybe, you know, maybe your thermal's micro

06:48:25.620 --> 06:48:26.980
is the difference maker in this matchup

06:48:26.980 --> 06:48:28.380
compared to what Pig brought.

06:48:30.340 --> 06:48:31.980
The path of a righteous grub.

06:48:31.980 --> 06:48:34.300
Get the coffee past him.

06:48:36.380 --> 06:48:38.540
Let's just hope that Euphemal remembers

06:48:38.540 --> 06:48:40.500
that relics exist on the map.

06:48:40.500 --> 06:48:41.340
Unlikely.

06:48:41.340 --> 06:48:43.500
Did he had a relic in his back pocket and refused

06:48:43.500 --> 06:48:44.340
to pick it up?

06:48:44.340 --> 06:48:49.180
an hour 20 game and said no but we know that was that was or farming because he

06:48:49.180 --> 06:48:54.080
just hates Regicide maybe takes this one seriously and maybe this game he

06:48:54.080 --> 06:48:58.080
switches up maybe triple modern theory all in on the relics

06:48:58.080 --> 06:49:01.580
he's got the nice scout lead though he's just kind of peppering up the scout

06:49:01.580 --> 06:49:05.420
from you thermal thermal continues to run and and no reason to turn around and

06:49:05.420 --> 06:49:08.220
fight you can just run until you run to your base and you're happy with that

06:49:08.220 --> 06:49:11.740
faster feudal age for your thermal this is a part of the course of course

06:49:11.740 --> 06:49:16.740
Burgundians tend to just wait a little bit more, a couple more villagers, and he'll be up in no time as well.

06:49:17.740 --> 06:49:21.740
Do Burgundians have any, like, special late game advantage?

06:49:21.740 --> 06:49:26.740
Any... what's their, like, um... God tier comp?

06:49:26.740 --> 06:49:29.740
They get money from farms. Which is useful.

06:49:29.740 --> 06:49:30.740
Is that it? Is that their thing?

06:49:30.740 --> 06:49:37.740
That's ironically what they're leaning on. So they have decent gunpowder with extra damage, but their army is always weaker than Bohemians.

06:49:37.740 --> 06:49:43.740
They're relying on Relic Gold, maybe a little bit of Tempo, and they're relying on the Vinnards.

06:49:43.740 --> 06:49:45.740
So, Spiff is actually spot on there.

06:49:48.740 --> 06:49:52.740
In terms of like Relic placement, is it favoring Grubby slightly?

06:49:52.740 --> 06:49:53.740
I mean, it's...

06:49:53.740 --> 06:49:55.740
Okay, that's kind of even.

06:49:55.740 --> 06:49:57.740
Yeah, I would say it's kind of even.

06:49:57.740 --> 06:49:59.740
The problem is, it's like...

06:49:59.740 --> 06:50:01.740
Yeah, I think it's closer to Grubby.

06:50:01.740 --> 06:50:02.740
Like, these three are closer to Grubby.

06:50:02.740 --> 06:50:06.740
If you have three closer to you, you can maybe start targeting the ones that are further,

06:50:06.740 --> 06:50:12.260
Keeping these guys, you know for later. You can do a lot of cool plays like that and maybe end up with even all five in some cases

06:50:12.260 --> 06:50:17.260
But I feel like if all five relics were in front of you thermals gate, it would pay for grubby

06:50:21.220 --> 06:50:26.700
I'm gonna grab these dude. It's all I'm gonna he learned from the last game. No, but his build is like a boom build

06:50:26.700 --> 06:50:30.300
It's gonna be a market blast. We don't have a stable. You're not on stones

06:50:30.300 --> 06:50:34.340
No castle drop so unless you go so like a triple monastery, which I was joking about earlier

06:50:34.340 --> 06:50:38.440
Uh, he's not gonna death in the relics. I think he's just gonna boom give up the relics go for the economy

06:50:39.080 --> 06:50:41.080
How many big booms do you give it?

06:50:41.960 --> 06:50:44.460
And you'll probably play a three or four TCA. I guess

06:50:46.940 --> 06:50:48.940
Five probably right

06:50:49.180 --> 06:50:54.340
I think you can you can fit in the five big booms. No problem. Did I miss something?

06:50:56.180 --> 06:50:58.840
That's okay. The big booms. No

06:51:00.060 --> 06:51:02.060
Even I as an uncultured

06:51:02.060 --> 06:51:12.300
I'm still lost, I'm not gonna lie, we'll just talk back about the game, uh, faster cast

06:51:12.300 --> 06:51:15.500
that's free thermal, give some generic comment series so I can move on, not understanding

06:51:15.500 --> 06:51:16.500
what's going on.

06:51:16.500 --> 06:51:17.500
Yeah, that's fine, that's fine.

06:51:17.500 --> 06:51:18.500
I understand.

06:51:18.500 --> 06:51:19.500
Scrambling.

06:51:19.500 --> 06:51:20.500
Yeah, that's grappling.

06:51:20.500 --> 06:51:21.500
Looking for something to latch on to your horse collar, that's horse collar coming

06:51:21.500 --> 06:51:22.500
for you thermal.

06:51:22.500 --> 06:51:23.500
Horse collar!

06:51:23.500 --> 06:51:24.500
I've never made it, horse collar!

06:51:24.500 --> 06:51:25.500
Nobody's ever done that, what the fuck!

06:51:25.500 --> 06:51:27.500
Horskuller!

06:51:27.500 --> 06:51:29.500
I'M A MANY HORSKULLER!

06:51:29.500 --> 06:51:31.500
Nobody's ever done that!

06:51:31.500 --> 06:51:33.500
Fuck the fuck!

06:51:33.500 --> 06:51:35.500
Wait, he's making the Cardinal's scene!

06:51:35.500 --> 06:51:37.500
Did he not get bit at?

06:51:37.500 --> 06:51:39.500
He got Horskuller first?

06:51:39.500 --> 06:51:41.500
Actually, Horskuller first is actually decent here.

06:51:41.500 --> 06:51:43.500
It's an exception.

06:51:43.500 --> 06:51:45.500
Then why'd you say it was a Cardinal's scene

06:51:45.500 --> 06:51:47.500
ten minutes ago?

06:51:47.500 --> 06:51:49.500
Because I'm a cast member, I'm gonna say it's right.

06:51:49.500 --> 06:51:51.500
You're just talking, bro.

06:51:51.500 --> 06:51:53.500
You're just talking.

06:51:53.500 --> 06:51:58.140
This guy doesn't know what you're imparting, it's a fake dude, he's faking it, he's faking it until he makes it.

06:51:58.140 --> 06:52:04.860
The thing is, literally an hour ago you were gonna excommunicate a player because of that and not who you are being like now that it actually makes sense.

06:52:04.860 --> 06:52:09.580
Trust me, when Mercury's in retrograde it's actually the smart pick.

06:52:12.380 --> 06:52:22.860
I mean, I've been called out in a few casting comments and I'm just, I have to say, like I've been cast at 12 hours a day, you can probably get a compilation of me just saying some garbage.

06:52:22.860 --> 06:52:29.860
I've been put in the hours.

06:52:29.860 --> 06:52:34.500
I've been amazed by your stamina.

06:52:34.500 --> 06:52:35.860
How do you even have the energies?

06:52:35.860 --> 06:52:38.180
Is it just all from the food?

06:52:38.180 --> 06:52:40.620
Well, never in this opportunity to mention the food.

06:52:40.620 --> 06:52:44.100
I'm drinking a couple of Red Bulls, not sponsored by the way, but they do send me them for free,

06:52:44.100 --> 06:52:46.860
so hey, there's that.

06:52:46.860 --> 06:52:50.060
I guess I just love it, honestly, I just love it.

06:52:50.060 --> 06:52:51.060
It's really fun.

06:52:51.060 --> 06:52:55.100
the work of shim, they're just playing for hours a day, I just like gaming.

06:52:55.100 --> 06:52:58.860
Your stamina is incredible, especially considering the sun.

06:52:58.860 --> 06:53:04.700
You've got to entertain people, you've got to analyze stuff, and of course, yeah, as

06:53:04.700 --> 06:53:08.300
H-Rock is saying, you are a machine that turns one into what exactly?

06:53:08.300 --> 06:53:12.740
Turns Uber Eats into HMMPyrus commentary.

06:53:12.740 --> 06:53:18.500
It's an incredibly efficient machine, you just feed it in Max and Food and out comes

06:53:18.500 --> 06:53:19.500
yapping about HMMPyrus.

06:53:19.500 --> 06:53:24.820
If I let the movie eat sponsorship, I might become a billionaire or may go broke as I'm just the best customer

06:53:24.820 --> 06:53:28.580
Oh, you thermal villagers make money on you. They would sponsor you and make money

06:53:28.580 --> 06:53:32.700
Yeah, for sure. But by the way thermal villager comes out. Did he you thermal vill again?

06:53:32.700 --> 06:53:38.800
At this point, I'm actually kind of mad. He's not doing it. Yeah, it's crazy. What was the point of it?

06:53:41.300 --> 06:53:45.740
He just miss miss rallies. He threw it again. He's coming out again. There's no loom

06:53:45.740 --> 06:53:50.740
Oh my god. He almost opened the gate that was so close to just losing the game.

06:53:50.740 --> 06:53:52.740
So anyway, it's fine. Just one lost.

06:53:52.740 --> 06:53:54.740
Four boom. Four TC boom, by the way.

06:53:54.740 --> 06:53:56.740
So it's just all that boom.

06:53:56.740 --> 06:53:58.740
Grubber's on three TC plus the bonus theory.

06:53:58.740 --> 06:54:00.740
Four TC. Okay, smart.

06:54:00.740 --> 06:54:01.740
Yeah, you like this.

06:54:01.740 --> 06:54:02.740
There's a monkey going out.

06:54:02.740 --> 06:54:04.740
The first monkey is hitting the building.

06:54:04.740 --> 06:54:05.740
Oh my god.

06:54:05.740 --> 06:54:06.740
Oh my god.

06:54:06.740 --> 06:54:07.740
He almost opened the gate.

06:54:07.740 --> 06:54:09.740
That was so close to just losing the game.

06:54:09.740 --> 06:54:10.740
So anyway, it's fine.

06:54:10.740 --> 06:54:11.740
Just one lost.

06:54:11.740 --> 06:54:12.740
Four boom.

06:54:12.740 --> 06:54:13.740
Four TC boom, by the way.

06:54:13.740 --> 06:54:15.740
The first monkey is hitting the building.

06:54:15.740 --> 06:54:18.940
Yeah, I like it a lot because this is unlike the Registrate game.

06:54:18.940 --> 06:54:23.340
He's saying, Hey, if I'm not going to fight for the relics, I'm going to get four TCs, boom, and then hit faster.

06:54:23.740 --> 06:54:25.240
Yeah, hit my 130 bills faster.

06:54:25.240 --> 06:54:28.740
I'm going to hit my late game ball faster and I'm going to be before the relics matter.

06:54:29.240 --> 06:54:32.740
Yeah, which is like the confidence like all of these gates of arrest.

06:54:32.740 --> 06:54:35.740
He knows that he can go for like the furthest relics safely pick it up.

06:54:35.740 --> 06:54:38.740
He's got no, like no contest happening here.

06:54:39.340 --> 06:54:40.440
Yeah, yeah, this is great.

06:54:40.440 --> 06:54:44.440
That's actually a good read from Grubby. Just going for the furthest relic first.

06:54:44.440 --> 06:54:49.320
Just in case your thermal has something coming out later, you can just take the furthest one first

06:54:49.320 --> 06:54:53.000
and then take the close ones later, which are easier to pick up and grab there.

06:54:53.640 --> 06:54:57.880
So Grubby will land on five relics. Let me remind the chat here that Burgundian relics give food

06:54:57.880 --> 06:55:05.400
in addition to gold as a bonus that they have. It's super nice. Wow. I gotta say, I don't know

06:55:05.400 --> 06:55:10.680
know what the meta is, but you can't fight for no relics on a, oh my goodness, right?

06:55:10.680 --> 06:55:13.080
Isn't it crazy that you thermal just doesn't care?

06:55:13.080 --> 06:55:15.720
I feel like that is such an advantage you're giving away.

06:55:15.720 --> 06:55:19.440
Like, take a look at the res collected in a standard game, if this was not brigundians,

06:55:19.440 --> 06:55:23.640
I think you thermal should pull ahead because it's brigundians with like faster eco upgrades

06:55:23.640 --> 06:55:25.040
and relics coming in.

06:55:25.040 --> 06:55:27.840
I think Grubby will stay ahead in economy despite the boom.

06:55:27.840 --> 06:55:32.080
I think it's a lazy trap in me thermal, it's a comfort trap, but like, it's just not good

06:55:32.080 --> 06:55:33.200
gameplay into brigundians.

06:55:33.200 --> 06:55:37.600
So, never see a pro game that just gives up the relics for free to brigundians, but to

06:55:37.600 --> 06:55:40.800
others say okay, to brigundians probably never.

06:55:40.800 --> 06:55:47.140
Yeah, and it's just, I don't know, the word is not right, but I'm thinking arrogant.

06:55:47.140 --> 06:55:51.160
It's almost like I think that I can win with my timing boom push.

06:55:51.160 --> 06:55:55.180
I don't care what you do, I'm gonna stay on my walls, and I just feel like I get someone

06:55:55.180 --> 06:55:58.480
as good as Grubby that's punishable.

06:55:58.480 --> 06:56:02.360
Yeah, yeah, it's super risky to go through that.

06:56:02.360 --> 06:56:04.360
When would this timing push come in though?

06:56:04.360 --> 06:56:06.360
Like is it gonna be...

06:56:06.360 --> 06:56:09.360
Okay, but when will it impede at like 30?

06:56:09.360 --> 06:56:13.360
No, a bit earlier. I think like 27 or 28 minutes, we have to start thinking about moving out,

06:56:13.360 --> 06:56:16.360
but maybe like by the time the push hits it's like 30 minutes, yeah, around there.

06:56:16.360 --> 06:56:19.360
So you've got like 10 more minutes of setup, plus booming,

06:56:19.360 --> 06:56:23.360
and then we'll be at like 120 bullets at that point, and you have a legitimate boom,

06:56:23.360 --> 06:56:25.360
like a legitimate, sorry, push after that.

06:56:25.360 --> 06:56:28.360
The thing is Grubby's gonna have a similar power level,

06:56:28.360 --> 06:56:30.360
and Grubby doesn't have to win the fight, he just has to meet him in the middle

06:56:30.360 --> 06:56:32.760
or meet him behind the walls and just kind of chill,

06:56:32.760 --> 06:56:34.840
let the relics cook and just play from there,

06:56:34.840 --> 06:56:36.240
trading gold in his back and forth

06:56:36.240 --> 06:56:37.440
until your thermal runs out of gold.

06:56:37.440 --> 06:56:40.360
That's kind of like the general game plan for Grubby.

06:56:40.360 --> 06:56:41.880
And we've already seen him do it once

06:56:41.880 --> 06:56:42.960
in the Redisly Fortress game.

06:56:42.960 --> 06:56:43.800
He can play a late game.

06:56:43.800 --> 06:56:45.840
He can play a grindy late game, no problem.

06:56:48.320 --> 06:56:49.640
Yeah, that was a hell of a late game.

06:56:49.640 --> 06:56:53.800
One of the most fun games I think I've seen.

06:56:53.800 --> 06:56:55.840
Also, the fact that you had to cast that game

06:56:55.840 --> 06:56:58.800
off of the back of yet another legendary game

06:56:58.800 --> 06:57:00.040
seems kind of crazy.

06:57:00.040 --> 06:57:01.840
Yeah, yeah, it's a lot of fun.

06:57:03.000 --> 06:57:04.560
Yeah.

06:57:04.560 --> 06:57:05.400
What a nice trope.

06:57:06.400 --> 06:57:08.720
Thank you.

06:57:11.360 --> 06:57:13.520
Burgundians here, down to the Tenvils,

06:57:13.520 --> 06:57:15.960
but again, still at the rest collected.

06:57:15.960 --> 06:57:17.880
Oh, is this a e-thermal?

06:57:17.880 --> 06:57:19.520
A grubby e-thermal in a villager?

06:57:19.520 --> 06:57:21.280
No, no, he's gonna go from Fort Castle.

06:57:21.280 --> 06:57:22.120
Oh, wow, okay.

06:57:22.120 --> 06:57:23.080
That's a Fort Castle, yeah.

06:57:23.080 --> 06:57:23.920
Fort Castle.

06:57:23.920 --> 06:57:24.760
He just wants to get that,

06:57:24.760 --> 06:57:26.360
start boxing him in already.

06:57:26.360 --> 06:57:27.400
Yeah, I don't mind this.

06:57:27.400 --> 06:57:31.240
Also, we haven't seen the patented Grubby Relics yet, by the way.

06:57:31.240 --> 06:57:33.240
Sorry, not Grubby Relics. We've seen those.

06:57:33.240 --> 06:57:34.740
Grubby Outpost. Here we go.

06:57:34.740 --> 06:57:35.940
Yeah, we've seen the Outpost now.

06:57:35.940 --> 06:57:38.640
He just can't help himself. He needs to go for some Outposts and some vision.

06:57:38.640 --> 06:57:40.440
He's about to click up the Imperial Age, though,

06:57:40.440 --> 06:57:43.140
and he's gonna have the University at the back just in time.

06:57:43.140 --> 06:57:44.940
Get that, get that ImClick.

06:57:44.940 --> 06:57:48.140
Can't be late on that ImClick. There it is.

06:57:48.140 --> 06:57:50.640
One of my last sessions with Grubby.

06:57:50.640 --> 06:57:54.040
He sent me, actually, the day before the tournament started at my 2AM.

06:57:54.040 --> 06:57:56.040
He sent me three replays on Arena.

06:57:56.040 --> 06:57:59.640
I reviewed just one of them, but I told them the most important thing, the most important takeaway is that

06:58:00.040 --> 06:58:02.040
you gotta get your end time, you know, down

06:58:02.200 --> 06:58:05.320
because if you're late to end when you're playing gunpowder, it's disastrous.

06:58:05.320 --> 06:58:09.960
And Grubby, trying to go for the middle of the map castle, changes it to the top, why the minerals?

06:58:09.960 --> 06:58:12.680
He wants to control these three stone and kill them all.

06:58:12.680 --> 06:58:14.040
That gold, that stone.

06:58:14.680 --> 06:58:15.000
Beautiful.

06:58:15.000 --> 06:58:16.520
Again, when this happens,

06:58:18.040 --> 06:58:22.760
you thermal can't even just trade evenly because he will run out of the gold in his base so quickly.

06:58:23.560 --> 06:58:24.600
And then you're just done.

06:58:24.600 --> 06:58:27.440
You don't have the relics. You don't have the gold outside your base.

06:58:28.200 --> 06:58:32.400
You have to you have to win the push and get out on the map with your first big imperial push.

06:58:32.740 --> 06:58:35.680
Yeah. And then Grubby's just beating him to imp, right?

06:58:35.680 --> 06:58:37.240
Like, Real Brothers only not coming again.

06:58:37.240 --> 06:58:39.640
We haven't even clicked imp. We do have our buildings, which is nice.

06:58:39.640 --> 06:58:42.980
So if you throw them all, is it a decent spot for what he's trying to do?

06:58:42.980 --> 06:58:44.640
But Grubby is picking up the map.

06:58:44.640 --> 06:58:46.520
Like, he picked the castle position.

06:58:46.520 --> 06:58:50.820
There's no, you know, no competition to the map.

06:58:50.820 --> 06:58:52.520
There's no one's contesting anything.

06:58:52.520 --> 06:58:53.820
So you just pick a castle spot.

06:58:53.820 --> 06:58:57.600
Okay, I'm gonna push from here to get down to vision. It's so much more comfortable. Take a look at you

06:58:57.600 --> 06:59:02.040
Firm on what he's used. He's got no vision. He does not know anything that's happening on this map

06:59:03.100 --> 06:59:09.100
He's got no idea all of the gold is getting vacuumed up. Yeah by Henry Hoover just outside of his walls

06:59:12.500 --> 06:59:14.500
He also doesn't have any

06:59:15.100 --> 06:59:18.580
He didn't know a space for production facilities because you're trapped in your base

06:59:19.140 --> 06:59:23.440
You have to somehow fit all the barracks and orchard range and seeds work up to the one

06:59:23.820 --> 06:59:29.820
but also all the farms and also the 4TC so you're you're really cramped and by the way all the

06:59:29.820 --> 06:59:33.580
production on the front is directly in grubby's vision so grubby's sitting here like okay it's

06:59:33.580 --> 06:59:37.580
each work trouble in front okay well it's might be the range soon uh because of course there's no

06:59:37.580 --> 06:59:41.500
space really at the back i mean fit a few buildings but generally speaking production will come down

06:59:41.500 --> 06:59:44.940
on the front grubby's gonna see that and know exactly what's coming all the eco upgrades coming

06:59:44.940 --> 06:59:49.340
in for grubby he's setting up a link in now he's walling his gate yep it's it's really cute actually

06:59:49.340 --> 06:59:54.620
wall in the gate. He's walling his gate. That's so wild. He's gonna force you to

06:59:54.620 --> 06:59:58.140
delete a wall before moving out. And if you delete a wall, suddenly Grubby

06:59:58.140 --> 07:00:06.140
can just attack you, right? So yeah, that's wild. I mean, yeah, your thermals got,

07:00:06.140 --> 07:00:11.460
you know, 20 the lead, certainly an advantage. And certainly his first push

07:00:11.460 --> 07:00:16.260
will be strong, but it has to be strong. It has to be so good. You have to get this

07:00:16.260 --> 07:00:19.300
castle down. You have to reclaim your gold. You have to start blowing up Grubby's

07:00:19.300 --> 07:00:23.540
forward archery ranges you got to get the outpost out from all your vision you

07:00:23.540 --> 07:00:26.580
have to it's what you have to deal with this first push and grubby's not gonna

07:00:26.580 --> 07:00:29.740
let you do that easily

07:00:29.740 --> 07:00:37.300
loom come in I don't know man. That's good. Oh loom yeah that's an early loom.

07:00:37.300 --> 07:00:44.700
27 minutes. Not the standard timing there you think we'll maybe show

07:00:44.700 --> 07:00:49.740
go to something different. Okay, it's going to be light calf or grubby, and he's going

07:00:49.740 --> 07:00:52.380
to take strength on his SAR by the way, so it's looking like it's going to be hand-kinned

07:00:52.380 --> 07:00:56.660
in his SAR, a good combo, and then the siege is likely to be bombarded. Remember, all the

07:00:56.660 --> 07:01:02.100
Burgundian gunpowder does, I think, 20% more damage, maybe 25% or something like that. It's

07:01:02.100 --> 07:01:03.100
pretty solid.

07:01:03.100 --> 07:01:07.860
How do you feel about the castle positioning down to the south? Because it's not near the

07:01:07.860 --> 07:01:11.620
minerals, it's kind of more just mirrored away.

07:01:11.620 --> 07:01:16.140
I think it's nice because it's outside the gate of you thermal and it's also far enough to the point where you

07:01:16.140 --> 07:01:17.460
So much to step out to fight it

07:01:17.460 --> 07:01:22.580
Which I think is good and considering we've all done these gates you thermal is actually a hard press to bring army

07:01:22.580 --> 07:01:28.460
I don't feel that he wants to move out. You could kill the houses obviously. It's not the biggest deal, but like I mean, this is nasty

07:01:30.020 --> 07:01:32.020
I mean

07:01:32.500 --> 07:01:34.500
Workshop in a second

07:01:35.300 --> 07:01:36.420
Okay

07:01:36.420 --> 07:01:39.460
Man, I just think grubby's been a little more active here

07:01:39.460 --> 07:01:41.980
I don't know how it's gonna play out, but you're you're

07:01:43.340 --> 07:01:48.460
You're kind of on the back foot already. You know, there's the wall. Yeah, there's the wall. He's gonna move out

07:01:48.460 --> 07:01:54.880
I waited you thermal got chemistry and castlage and already started making the hand can near this is a unique thing that the bohemians can do

07:01:55.020 --> 07:01:58.100
You don't have to wait till in for chemistry. So he's already making the gunpowder

07:01:58.100 --> 07:02:00.980
Bobber can already coming out. So he's got yes on the back foot

07:02:00.980 --> 07:02:04.820
We've got a lot of his power units coming out and he's looking to you know, it's a prison break right now

07:02:04.820 --> 07:02:07.860
It's a big break out. Maybe a castle job or something. Here we go

07:02:07.860 --> 07:02:15.460
Yeah, I think he was gonna try and push out for it, but then he's realized suddenly the enemy is actually much closer than he expected

07:02:15.460 --> 07:02:17.140
Yeah, I think so as well

07:02:17.140 --> 07:02:20.860
It's exactly happening back up and just we're gonna take a little bit more time

07:02:20.860 --> 07:02:26.100
Does have the pike snow how big upgrade but it's decent enough to push out cannons in the back gonna step those bombards

07:02:27.060 --> 07:02:29.520
Okay, you really want the bombars to kill a tread here?

07:02:31.300 --> 07:02:34.460
And just slow down this destruction of your production facilities

07:02:34.460 --> 07:02:39.740
It's going to be a real bombard war, huh?

07:02:39.740 --> 07:02:45.060
It's going to be like bombard v bombard, just dodging and...

07:02:45.060 --> 07:02:48.180
Bohemian Bombard is way better in the late game once all the attack comes in.

07:02:48.180 --> 07:02:51.220
I'll let you guys know what the attack does once it does come through, but just keep in

07:02:51.220 --> 07:02:54.860
mind that Bohemian Bombards in the end are way better.

07:02:54.860 --> 07:03:00.620
In early game though, Bohemian Bombards are slightly stronger.

07:03:00.620 --> 07:03:03.220
It has your near movements.

07:03:03.220 --> 07:03:06.320
They both get that siege tech you talked about engineers engineers engineers

07:03:06.320 --> 07:03:09.360
No, that's one of the techs that for humans have as an advantage

07:03:09.360 --> 07:03:13.080
They can get extra range of the bombards that's huge the bombard Morgan that plus one range

07:03:13.600 --> 07:03:16.440
It's not getting it and siege engineers that is pretty good

07:03:16.440 --> 07:03:21.960
It's and another tech their unique tech makes them move faster. So it's a triple tech on their cannons. That's insane

07:03:23.400 --> 07:03:26.880
So their like game is just significantly better right if it just comes down to a full

07:03:26.880 --> 07:03:33.440
I guess there's money on the other side. There's free food, free gold. Yeah, okay. I see.

07:03:33.440 --> 07:03:39.200
It's interesting. Better units, less of them, and more time like press. You got to fight and

07:03:39.200 --> 07:03:43.520
fight fast. Whereas, Grubby's just happy trading here. Anyone for one trade is good for Grubby.

07:03:43.520 --> 07:03:50.640
And so far, it's got some good micro here. I see. Interesting. It's an interesting matchup,

07:03:50.640 --> 07:03:56.000
because I do think that, yeah, Uthermo's getting his dream comp already. It's super solid. And these

07:03:56.000 --> 07:04:00.280
bombards are gonna push out but if they he starts losing them can't get the

07:04:00.280 --> 07:04:07.400
gold back easily again it's worth noting that this is true his nearest gold is

07:04:07.400 --> 07:04:12.960
right above him under grubby's castle and that is gonna be important so soon

07:04:12.960 --> 07:04:19.240
bomb that's coming out right now I was gonna say yeah like your fobal is

07:04:19.240 --> 07:04:23.040
basically almost out of gold in his base he had like 27 villagers on it and

07:04:23.040 --> 07:04:25.040
and then he is now down to two.

07:04:25.040 --> 07:04:33.040
He has one pile and his villagers are doing the conger inside of his base and that's fine.

07:04:33.040 --> 07:04:38.040
He has this little four square pile and that's it.

07:04:38.040 --> 07:04:42.040
You better figure it out by then. You better be out and have taken this castle.

07:04:42.040 --> 07:04:45.040
By the way, you don't have to conquer the world.

07:04:45.040 --> 07:04:49.040
You just take out this castle and take this gold and then from this gold take the stone

07:04:49.040 --> 07:04:51.040
and from the stone you can start pushing out.

07:04:51.040 --> 07:04:54.620
With no relics you have to keep you know kind of leapfrogging from mineral to mineral

07:04:55.180 --> 07:05:01.000
Otherwise you're gonna be hard pressed with no gold units, and that's basically gg but humans can't play without gold

07:05:02.680 --> 07:05:08.400
Is there a world where grubby kind of greeds this and goes for the gold just above you for most place yep

07:05:08.400 --> 07:05:14.140
I think you can I think it's worth I think it's actually worth doing he's not gonna think about it unfortunate

07:05:14.140 --> 07:05:18.600
I think it's even the stone like any anything here just take it because much as you kind of it

07:05:18.600 --> 07:05:23.060
Even to get pushed back, you know your thermal can't make use of it, which is fantastic. Yeah, just vacuum it up

07:05:23.060 --> 07:05:29.060
Yep, it's also worth knowing that you know you thermals doing his big push and spending his resources to get this castle down

07:05:29.060 --> 07:05:31.060
But this guy doesn't really control anything

07:05:31.140 --> 07:05:34.060
It's nice to clear up, but man it feels like you should be pushing the top

07:05:34.140 --> 07:05:40.520
Yep, because you need it. You need to be getting those resources that that is your number one goal right now is to get your next goal

07:05:41.060 --> 07:05:43.060
Your next meal

07:05:43.060 --> 07:05:47.500
Don't worry about you don't worry about retirement accounts right now find out I'm find a place to stay for tonight

07:05:47.500 --> 07:05:56.100
Oh double double bomber snipe from grubby. Oh, so nice

07:05:57.100 --> 07:06:01.300
And he says that one more he picks it up. Wow. That's a triple bomber loss free thermal

07:06:01.300 --> 07:06:05.460
We can't afford that ladies and gentlemen that is a bad trade free thermal

07:06:05.620 --> 07:06:09.300
He's got a lot of population, but those bombards and look at that. No bombers

07:06:09.300 --> 07:06:12.000
This army is just sitting duck like they can't actually attack with no siege

07:06:12.000 --> 07:06:24.000
And Grubby's forward castles are so smart. Right at the exact right time to give him the momentum, the advantage, whatever. They were playing from the forward foot.

07:06:24.000 --> 07:06:39.000
Yeah, I would think at least a wall. These castles aren't going down. It's not going to happen. The villagers can defend it. Grubby's got all the stone in the world. Your family is just trapped.

07:06:39.000 --> 07:06:41.400
Yeah, he's not pushing out fast enough, that's for sure.

07:06:41.400 --> 07:06:45.900
He's bringing like one or two traps to the table, but the way you actually do this in a pro game,

07:06:45.900 --> 07:06:47.400
you need like ten bombards, by the way.

07:06:47.400 --> 07:06:51.500
He's getting the Hupnit to upgrade. This is the unique tech for Bohemians.

07:06:51.500 --> 07:06:54.700
They're gonna give them an upgrade on their cannons. It's a very strong upgrade.

07:06:54.700 --> 07:06:57.200
Think of like Paladin equivalent for the cannons.

07:06:57.200 --> 07:06:59.900
Make some stronger, faster tank here, all the good stuff.

07:07:00.600 --> 07:07:03.600
More splash damage, etc. Nice tower for Grubby.

07:07:03.600 --> 07:07:07.100
So watch tower and imp, but he wants to take that stone, so it's worth it.

07:07:07.100 --> 07:07:11.380
And yeah, you need like ten cannons free thermal like two or three not gonna cut it

07:07:11.380 --> 07:07:13.420
Especially when you lose a couple to grubby's trades

07:07:14.220 --> 07:07:18.860
Yeah, ten keep them alive at all costs and push the top. Yeah

07:07:20.100 --> 07:07:22.100
Top is what matters

07:07:22.620 --> 07:07:27.620
I see he's doing he's doing all the stone. Yeah, grubby grubby strategically is winning this game

07:07:27.620 --> 07:07:29.980
Just really really smartly. He's doing everything

07:07:30.820 --> 07:07:35.340
He's got a plan. Yeah, and just what the challenge is like a horde of locusts

07:07:35.340 --> 07:07:36.340
Yeah, pretty much.

07:07:36.340 --> 07:07:38.780
Yeah, they're just warming in for the stone.

07:07:38.780 --> 07:07:40.900
Dude, he's sucking that up as well.

07:07:40.900 --> 07:07:42.140
He's kind of going through that quick.

07:07:42.140 --> 07:07:44.940
And just for the chat, even if you lose all these villagers, it doesn't matter.

07:07:44.940 --> 07:07:47.380
We got 142 Villas, the free chief in late game.

07:07:47.380 --> 07:07:49.140
It's not the same as losing Villas in early games.

07:07:49.140 --> 07:07:50.140
Keep that in mind.

07:07:50.140 --> 07:07:53.260
Big big shots onto the back line from Grubby's cannons.

07:07:53.260 --> 07:07:55.820
Grubby's just playing the control game and he's doing it so smart.

07:07:55.820 --> 07:07:58.740
He's never over committing into Thermal's base.

07:07:58.740 --> 07:08:01.020
He might poke at his castle, but he's never diving.

07:08:01.020 --> 07:08:02.020
That's exactly what he needs to do.

07:08:02.020 --> 07:08:03.980
He's got all the gold in the world, all the map in the world.

07:08:03.980 --> 07:08:09.220
have to wait and outlast them and those relics add up actually so quickly yeah

07:08:09.220 --> 07:08:14.200
it seems like a small amount but an extra of 3,000 gold is just so nice so it

07:08:14.200 --> 07:08:18.460
is so clean that's basically all of them can afford to lose a couple bombards you

07:08:18.460 --> 07:08:21.700
can lose a couple handcans you don't feel bad about it but if he loses them if

07:08:21.700 --> 07:08:26.180
you thermal use the bombard it feels terrible you thermal no bank grubby

07:08:26.180 --> 07:08:29.980
2600 the bank relic gold 2700 it's the entire bank of grubby sponsored by the

07:08:29.980 --> 07:08:34.500
relics, he thermal no luxuries, he's got a 38 gold, he's got a couple bombers, going

07:08:34.500 --> 07:08:38.420
out for a cast on the left, he's fighting for the wrong side of the mouth though, this

07:08:38.420 --> 07:08:40.420
is like a sight that's not a matter.

07:08:40.420 --> 07:08:44.220
And he's going to have a great protection of that useless wood lung.

07:08:44.220 --> 07:08:51.060
Yes, he's fighting for the wood, but he's got one here so.

07:08:51.060 --> 07:08:55.140
That's not the best situation, it's diving deep into the habit gear, starting to get

07:08:55.140 --> 07:08:58.220
a little desperate, you can't see it in the tone of the army but.

07:08:58.220 --> 07:09:02.620
Yeah, I really need to get out here. Yeah, these two who need to I

07:09:03.900 --> 07:09:09.780
Mean these are so important to keep alive because this is it you're not rebuilding these so easily

07:09:11.540 --> 07:09:13.540
Fourth castle look at that

07:09:13.900 --> 07:09:18.580
Beautiful just on that stone. That's done vineyards coming in as well. Shout out to stiff

07:09:18.580 --> 07:09:22.820
That's your favorite sack. I think the chat loves it as well extra gold from the farms. We love wine

07:09:22.820 --> 07:09:24.820
Yeah

07:09:24.820 --> 07:09:26.900
And we got murals as well for the castles

07:09:28.140 --> 07:09:29.780
Architecture to keep them tank here as well

07:09:29.780 --> 07:09:33.380
It's like all these techs hoardings all these techs to make the castles tank here and grab

07:09:33.380 --> 07:09:38.100
We're just gonna hold the fork keep profiting off these passive income tools and yeah

07:09:38.100 --> 07:09:43.900
It's gonna win the long run you thermals kind of desperate zero and gold is using the market market prices will take the villagers

07:09:44.060 --> 07:09:47.300
Look at all the we're coming out for a holiday

07:09:47.860 --> 07:09:50.060
Just to watch the castle they build burn down

07:09:50.060 --> 07:09:52.060
It's not a good holiday.

07:09:54.060 --> 07:10:02.060
Imagine you and your family dedicate your lives to building a castle and you finish it and it finishes on fire and crumbling.

07:10:04.060 --> 07:10:07.060
That's pretty depressing. That's your throne right now.

07:10:11.060 --> 07:10:13.060
Is it ever a thing to...

07:10:13.060 --> 07:10:18.640
Uh, cause you know when you sell winter food, it makes the prices worse.

07:10:18.640 --> 07:10:19.640
Yeah.

07:10:19.640 --> 07:10:23.440
Is everything to know that's gonna be a problem and just mass sell early so you get the best

07:10:23.440 --> 07:10:24.440
trades?

07:10:24.440 --> 07:10:25.440
Hundred percent.

07:10:25.440 --> 07:10:26.440
Yeah.

07:10:26.440 --> 07:10:27.440
It's like a regular thing in pro games for sure.

07:10:27.440 --> 07:10:28.440
Selling first is huge.

07:10:28.440 --> 07:10:35.280
Uh, by the way, uh, decent momentum in the thermo, he's got the grubby castle on the

07:10:35.280 --> 07:10:36.280
top.

07:10:36.280 --> 07:10:37.280
Not the one that matters.

07:10:37.280 --> 07:10:38.280
Grubby already got the gold.

07:10:38.280 --> 07:10:39.280
He's sucking it up.

07:10:39.280 --> 07:10:40.280
He's already got it.

07:10:40.280 --> 07:10:41.280
He's already got it.

07:10:41.280 --> 07:10:42.280
He got the gold too!

07:10:42.280 --> 07:10:44.280
Oh my god, he drinks your milkshake!

07:10:44.280 --> 07:10:47.280
He's already siphoned up all your resources, bro!

07:10:47.280 --> 07:10:50.280
By the time you get out of your base, it's all barren!

07:10:50.280 --> 07:10:54.280
Yeah, and Grubby's got a huge bank. You can trade all day. It's gunpowder vs gunpowder.

07:10:54.280 --> 07:10:58.280
Grubby's got a few cannons, but I want to say, like, this is actually a masterpiece from Grubby.

07:10:58.280 --> 07:11:02.280
He's understood his win condition perfectly. He's playing towards it in a beautiful way.

07:11:02.280 --> 07:11:05.280
He's also trading very nicely. This fight's a bit suspicious though.

07:11:05.280 --> 07:11:08.280
I think you're almost getting the slightly better trades. You've got to be a bit careful.

07:11:08.280 --> 07:11:11.280
Not to get snowballed, but all of a sudden you can go to SARS behind this.

07:11:11.280 --> 07:11:12.280
You can go for some skirmishers.

07:11:12.280 --> 07:11:14.280
You can just start countering this army.

07:11:14.280 --> 07:11:16.280
This army is the last bit of gold that your thermal has.

07:11:16.280 --> 07:11:18.280
Once it goes down, it's not being remade.

07:11:19.280 --> 07:11:20.280
Yeah, this is crazy.

07:11:21.280 --> 07:11:23.280
Handcans to tower or to castle, so...

07:11:25.280 --> 07:11:29.280
In terms of this run, when this game finishes, does the winner go straight into another game?

07:11:30.280 --> 07:11:31.280
Yep, no break.

07:11:31.280 --> 07:11:32.280
Maybe like five to ten to break?

07:11:32.280 --> 07:11:33.280
And then if...

07:11:33.280 --> 07:11:34.280
Not much more.

07:11:34.280 --> 07:11:37.280
Okay, but then if they win that game, they're then straight into the finals as well.

07:11:38.280 --> 07:11:44.840
Yes, yes, yes, okay, so in order for sake Grubby or you formal to win this tournament

07:11:45.680 --> 07:11:50.180
That is like, you know part of their entire spiritual soul and essence being

07:11:50.880 --> 07:11:57.120
Sacrificed on the ultra-vage of empires. Yep. That's a loser bracket run. It's their fault. It's their fault. They lost

07:11:57.560 --> 07:12:02.520
They lost one. This is good. Yeah, this is what Grubby gets for being the teacher's pet. It's fine

07:12:05.120 --> 07:12:07.120
Well, I hope he makes the run happen

07:12:08.280 --> 07:12:10.280
but

07:12:10.280 --> 07:12:11.720
she's got to keep his job

07:12:11.720 --> 07:12:14.960
yeah i mean twelve-hour straight major empires like your standard daily stream

07:12:14.960 --> 07:12:17.280
so it's not

07:12:17.280 --> 07:12:18.560
i think they're a pro

07:12:18.560 --> 07:12:21.280
there are eighty dead villagers on your thermal side

07:12:21.280 --> 07:12:22.640
yeah the raid doesn't have you

07:12:22.640 --> 07:12:24.680
oh my god he's reacting actually

07:12:24.680 --> 07:12:28.160
over over he lost literally eighty people yeah

07:12:28.160 --> 07:12:29.160
yeah that was a

07:12:29.160 --> 07:12:32.520
that was a master classroom probably honestly start to finish

07:12:32.520 --> 07:12:34.200
he played that beautifully

07:12:34.200 --> 07:12:36.280
i don't think he was ever even behind that was

07:12:36.280 --> 07:12:37.120
that was crazy

07:12:37.120 --> 07:12:37.920
beautiful game

07:12:37.920 --> 07:12:40.340
well-played grubby gg the checkers that's uh...

07:12:40.340 --> 07:12:43.680
that's a game a lot of work and learn from by the way just never pushing into

07:12:43.680 --> 07:12:44.540
your thermos base

07:12:44.540 --> 07:12:48.360
not a single season at wednesday's almost a few couple trebs but not much more

07:12:48.360 --> 07:12:51.700
uh... most of us is poking the outside taking the gold taking the stone

07:12:51.700 --> 07:12:55.440
five relics and it was thirty seven hundred and fifty gold from relics

07:12:55.440 --> 07:12:58.480
where the vineyards behind it we had the thermos gold and stone

07:12:58.480 --> 07:13:00.860
we still have one two three castles alive

07:13:00.860 --> 07:13:03.380
about four castles still left that we can make

07:13:03.380 --> 07:13:05.640
why we didn't take his gold

07:13:05.640 --> 07:13:09.880
because you thermal first makes more sense that's actually so smart

07:13:09.880 --> 07:13:12.040
that's a stone back here well

07:13:12.040 --> 07:13:14.800
bro beautiful game from grabby honestly

07:13:14.800 --> 07:13:16.120
and it was good

07:13:16.120 --> 07:13:19.520
yeah if you watch that replays your thermal it's like okay my way of playing

07:13:19.520 --> 07:13:21.680
has been checked i cannot do that again

07:13:21.680 --> 07:13:24.880
he's got to figure it out i must be more aggressive in some way

07:13:24.880 --> 07:13:28.160
or i will get box into the corner and destroy like grovey

07:13:28.160 --> 07:13:29.880
has solved it

07:13:29.880 --> 07:13:30.760
yeah

07:13:30.760 --> 07:13:33.600
to be used as a whole map it was guaranteed going back to a rabid now

07:13:33.600 --> 07:13:39.060
It's completely over but again it must be said you thermal has to win a grubby home map

07:13:39.060 --> 07:13:44.620
Which could just be another arena even if you thermal wins this next game now fun fact actually we take a look at the bracket

07:13:45.160 --> 07:13:48.440
There hasn't been a single match between captains that has not been a 3-2

07:13:49.040 --> 07:13:52.280
So if you're betting man's good, you know listen up here

07:13:52.880 --> 07:13:59.520
Yeah, yeah, yeah you thermal is likely to win this next game because that's how the trajectory of these captain matches have went

07:13:59.520 --> 07:14:03.200
It's always been a 3-2, a 3-2, a 3-2, and so far it's a 2-1 Grubby.

07:14:03.200 --> 07:14:08.040
So if Grubby wins this next one, it's unprecedented ground for our tournament here in the King's Scotland.

07:14:09.040 --> 07:14:09.520
Well, there you go.

07:14:09.520 --> 07:14:11.000
The captains were well picked.

07:14:11.000 --> 07:14:18.880
If you're listening, make sure to use CodeHera in the Twitch predictions to get 10% off of your match bet.

07:14:19.760 --> 07:14:20.560
It's going to be great.

07:14:20.960 --> 07:14:23.400
All in on Euphoma for the next one.

07:14:23.400 --> 07:14:23.840
He's got it.

07:14:23.840 --> 07:14:29.360
It doesn't matter that he just spent 40 minutes sweating over a game that he'd never had a chance of winning.

07:14:29.520 --> 07:14:37.840
He's got it. It's fine. Yeah, it did. It's like a hair up on Uber eats and you get 10% off your food. It sends it directly to him.

07:14:38.560 --> 07:14:43.200
You get a little few fries. He gets some of yours. It's part of this. We call it the hair attacks.

07:14:44.320 --> 07:14:50.720
Oh, God, the king's gauntlet is actually the real gauntlet. It's just the traffic jam outside of Harris House.

07:14:50.720 --> 07:14:52.720
The board let the scooters bump into each other.

07:14:54.560 --> 07:14:58.720
The Uber eat scooters. They have to fight to get to the door. I hope they get a tip.

07:14:59.520 --> 07:15:10.520
Guys, sometimes, sometimes my wife orders a meal and I order another one because we want different things, and they both are at the same time, and I have to explain to them that both are for me and it's always awkward.

07:15:10.520 --> 07:15:14.520
I'm explaining in Spanish that both orders are for me.

07:15:14.520 --> 07:15:21.520
Well, they already know. Everybody that delivers in that whole city knows you. They all nod when they see each other. I'll go on a heroin.

07:15:21.520 --> 07:15:22.520
Wait, one time.

07:15:22.520 --> 07:15:25.520
I would never order from the king. Okay, that's fine.

07:15:25.520 --> 07:15:31.480
One time one time one time it was 2 a.m. At night. I ordered some late-night snack and the guy the uber eats guy

07:15:31.880 --> 07:15:38.720
Recognizes me. He's like are you care for my fires and bro. I was shocked. I was like no freaking way my reputation has caught up to me

07:15:39.280 --> 07:15:41.840
Well, he knows you better than your own wife. He sees you every day

07:15:43.240 --> 07:15:49.840
Your closest friends he knows what kind of meals you like don't pretend like he's the first time recognizing you

07:15:50.160 --> 07:15:52.160
He's tired of talking to you

07:15:52.160 --> 07:15:56.980
There's one right guys ordering like 20 chicken nuggets and a milkshake at 2 a.m.

07:15:59.600 --> 07:16:03.520
They pre-buy the milkshake in the Nuggets because they know he's gonna order this way by his door

07:16:04.040 --> 07:16:06.040
save the time

07:16:06.040 --> 07:16:09.160
The one that delivers so fast close until the hair order comes in

07:16:11.600 --> 07:16:13.600
Oh, that's too good

07:16:13.680 --> 07:16:15.560
It's you guys

07:16:15.560 --> 07:16:20.760
Overdone, but I feel like it's always one more around the corner just begun. Yeah, I always snack on one more

07:16:20.760 --> 07:16:26.720
I want you to know, by the way, Harrow, because of this kind of tournament, a few of my friends

07:16:26.720 --> 07:16:33.320
have been watching. Especially some friends that I took with me to the London events,

07:16:33.320 --> 07:16:36.560
they saw me play live. They basically know, hey, you're the best player in the world,

07:16:36.560 --> 07:16:41.120
you're really good, you've got a great game for it. But then also the fact that you are

07:16:41.120 --> 07:16:47.640
funny is kind of unfair. You've got it all. You've got the looks, you're married, you're

07:16:47.640 --> 07:16:52.040
good at games, you got the gift of the gab, you can yapp with the best of them, it's just

07:16:52.040 --> 07:16:57.320
not fair. It's just, it's completely unfair chat. You don't understand it. He's too good.

07:16:57.320 --> 07:16:58.120
It's all the plays.

07:16:58.120 --> 07:16:59.000
I appreciate that, man.

07:16:59.000 --> 07:17:00.360
Keep up Worldcraft 3 right now, bro.

07:17:00.360 --> 07:17:02.520
I'll beat you dumbass at Worldcraft 3.

07:17:03.320 --> 07:17:06.200
You can have spit on your team. I'll 1v2 you guys.

07:17:06.200 --> 07:17:07.720
Give me spit, we'll crush you, bro.

07:17:09.000 --> 07:17:12.040
I appreciate that. I appreciate that, spit. Honestly, that means a lot.

07:17:12.040 --> 07:17:16.600
Hey, if you've got like 48 hours, 1v1 with Crusader Kings, we got this, no problem.

07:17:16.600 --> 07:17:21.780
Crusader Kings always talking about games. I've never played it. How about this? How about the stronger Crusader speaking of Crusader?

07:17:21.780 --> 07:17:23.160
Do you know that?

07:17:23.160 --> 07:17:27.880
Okay, I've got exploits for that game. We can play. I don't have any exploits

07:17:27.880 --> 07:17:32.080
But I kind of know what I'm doing. I can keep my my people happy in that game

07:17:32.080 --> 07:17:36.600
Like you know something to get unhappy I can keep them happy. Yeah, that's about it. That's what I want though

07:17:37.360 --> 07:17:44.020
No, I'm like all in on the classic the suffering and pressure just like that evilness you put those ghibli cages up

07:17:44.020 --> 07:17:50.220
That's it. They are terrified and they will work better. Yeah, they fight better. I think oh, no, they fight worse. How is it I?

07:17:50.980 --> 07:17:56.740
Don't know the stats. So I think they fight worse. However, the production economy behind it is better

07:17:58.740 --> 07:18:04.780
Yeah, that makes sense. It makes sense. It's a great game. Hey, there's a terrible some new stronghold game coming out

07:18:04.780 --> 07:18:08.700
I'm sure they'll they'll send you a marketing request or something. You never know

07:18:09.380 --> 07:18:12.940
I'd be done. We'll run it back. I actually love that game. I played with my brothers back in the day

07:18:12.940 --> 07:18:13.940
Super casual game.

07:18:13.940 --> 07:18:14.940
Super casual.

07:18:14.940 --> 07:18:20.280
If one of the two people who work at Firefly Studios is watching this then you've got your

07:18:20.280 --> 07:18:21.280
guys.

07:18:21.280 --> 07:18:29.600
It's just husband and wife projects for the last 20 years, you know?

07:18:29.600 --> 07:18:31.340
With the rate they put out games?

07:18:31.340 --> 07:18:32.340
Probably, yeah.

07:18:32.340 --> 07:18:37.460
That's going to be a raid bit by the way.

07:18:37.460 --> 07:18:38.720
Ethan was hosting this one up.

07:18:38.720 --> 07:18:39.720
They're just waiting.

07:18:39.720 --> 07:18:40.720
I got to use the washing machine.

07:18:40.720 --> 07:18:41.720
So be quick beer back.

07:18:41.720 --> 07:18:42.720
Chat beer back.

07:18:42.720 --> 07:18:47.520
Sure. Sure. Sure. Okay. Okay. You're still not down over there, Brit.

07:18:47.520 --> 07:18:53.000
Yeah, I won't lie. My office is actually sweltering and I can't run an AC because it's the UK.

07:18:53.000 --> 07:18:57.360
We don't have inbuilt AC. I've like a little wheelie boy, but of course I can't run it

07:18:57.360 --> 07:19:02.200
if I'm doing audio, which basically means in my regular day to day when I'm recording

07:19:02.200 --> 07:19:07.680
in the summer, it's like, I just swelter until I reach a point of heat stroke and then I

07:19:07.680 --> 07:19:13.600
I leave my office and I just have an AC run for like 30 minutes and I just hop back in

07:19:13.600 --> 07:19:18.400
I just try and do a bit more and then provided I survive it's a successful day at the office

07:19:18.400 --> 07:19:19.400
we did it.

07:19:19.400 --> 07:19:24.960
Now I understand look I work from home I do a job yeah I could probably get AC fitted

07:19:24.960 --> 07:19:29.720
I understand that guys but you don't understand the British summer lasts like 16 days and

07:19:29.720 --> 07:19:31.920
I just can't justify it okay.

07:19:31.920 --> 07:19:37.760
min max in the economy out here, um, with rushing for castle age and my neighbors

07:19:37.760 --> 07:19:39.800
are going to be shocked when sure I don't have the AC.

07:19:39.800 --> 07:19:42.720
I don't have the tech upgrades, but bam, fast castle around their lawn.

07:19:43.000 --> 07:19:43.960
They don't expect it.

07:19:44.160 --> 07:19:48.360
We mag your rush to their back garden, kill their, kill their dog or something.

07:19:48.360 --> 07:19:48.840
I don't know.

07:19:50.000 --> 07:19:50.480
That's it.

07:19:50.480 --> 07:19:51.200
That's my strat.

07:19:51.240 --> 07:19:51.960
That's what I'm saving.

07:19:52.040 --> 07:19:52.440
I'm sorry.

07:19:52.440 --> 07:19:56.560
He's described that you're going to murder your neighbor's dog with the money

07:19:56.560 --> 07:19:57.760
you saved on AC.

07:19:57.760 --> 07:19:58.480
I'm just trying to make.

07:19:59.080 --> 07:19:59.840
It's necessary.

07:20:00.040 --> 07:20:00.200
Yeah.

07:20:00.200 --> 07:20:04.160
I wouldn't, by the way, that dog is lovely.

07:20:04.160 --> 07:20:09.200
But also, in a 1v1, my Korgie could easily kick that dog's ass, that's just how it is.

07:20:09.200 --> 07:20:10.200
No, everyone knows that.

07:20:10.200 --> 07:20:12.200
Yeah, you've got them cooked.

07:20:12.200 --> 07:20:13.200
They know that too.

07:20:13.200 --> 07:20:14.200
They wouldn't challenge you.

07:20:14.200 --> 07:20:17.200
Are you the dominant dog in the neighborhood?

07:20:17.200 --> 07:20:18.200
Yeah.

07:20:18.200 --> 07:20:24.920
Yeah, I mean, I heard that a lot of British buildings are like built to retain heat, because

07:20:24.920 --> 07:20:28.200
there's not, like the sun is so short, and so it gets trapped in there.

07:20:28.200 --> 07:20:33.620
We also have ridiculously efficient windows and things like that. So the houses are good. They're really sturdy

07:20:34.500 --> 07:20:39.060
It's just they get hot and that's fine in the winter. It's super cozy and that's nice

07:20:39.360 --> 07:20:44.980
But yeah, it's just how it is. I must say like one of the side effects of global warming

07:20:44.980 --> 07:20:47.640
So yeah, sure it sucks that my house is smeltering in the summer

07:20:47.640 --> 07:20:53.940
But I can sleep easy at night knowing that the French wine economy is slowly collapsing year on year

07:20:53.940 --> 07:20:59.340
And the British wine economy gets better and better best place to go champagne no longer champagne region

07:20:59.340 --> 07:21:05.260
It's the south coast of England take that Frenchies. We basically 100 years war. It was all the long game

07:21:05.260 --> 07:21:09.220
It's the thousand years war bro. We are winning the beverage war

07:21:11.180 --> 07:21:15.340
British spirit you will take any amount of pain as long as the French have it worse

07:21:17.100 --> 07:21:19.340
You have no idea how much spite we've got it

07:21:19.340 --> 07:21:26.340
Is it mutual? Do the French guys, do they send it back to you? I don't know how that works actually.

07:21:26.340 --> 07:21:34.340
Okay, right. Look, the European thing, and this is the wonderful thing about being a European, is that you all hate each other, but also you are united by your hatred of everyone.

07:21:34.340 --> 07:21:41.340
So for example, you know, Brits hate the French, Germans hate the French, but also Brits hate the Germans, French hate the Germans, and we're united by that.

07:21:41.340 --> 07:21:48.340
It's amazing. You watch like, I think football is probably the best way to experience it, where depending on who's playing, right?

07:21:48.340 --> 07:21:55.700
Right, okay if Scotland are playing against America all of the English people are cheering for Scotland if England's playing against like France

07:21:55.740 --> 07:22:00.980
You know, okay, the scots are actually probably cheering for the French. I would like the scots are never gonna cheer for the English

07:22:00.980 --> 07:22:02.980
That was a bad analogy

07:22:03.180 --> 07:22:05.180
There's no there's no patching that one

07:22:07.660 --> 07:22:10.620
So much interview for I feel like in Canada just like

07:22:11.540 --> 07:22:15.500
Yeah, I don't really follow soccer. It's not like the response you get but you know if you if they do

07:22:15.500 --> 07:22:20.020
They're just kind of doing for Canada. That's not no one really cares. I don't hate anyone. It's good fun

07:22:20.300 --> 07:22:26.500
Well, look, it's it's not really hatred because the reality is everyone goes to each other's countries on holiday and they love it

07:22:26.500 --> 07:22:34.700
Yeah, and also just the sharing of cuisine and art is a wonderful thing humanity's amazing. There you go

07:22:34.700 --> 07:22:38.540
That's my wishy-washy opinion. Okay. I love humanity. They're great

07:22:39.260 --> 07:22:41.420
But also I hate the French

07:22:41.420 --> 07:22:53.180
That's the greatest British cornerball time I'll have humanity and I hate the French.

07:22:53.180 --> 07:22:56.420
I can say they make up like 0.2% of audience demographics.

07:22:56.420 --> 07:22:57.420
It's fine.

07:22:57.420 --> 07:22:58.420
Yeah, there's no money.

07:22:58.420 --> 07:23:00.420
You're not going to make any fronks.

07:23:00.420 --> 07:23:01.420
Exactly.

07:23:01.420 --> 07:23:02.420
They left seven years ago.

07:23:02.420 --> 07:23:03.420
We're all so fine.

07:23:03.420 --> 07:23:06.700
I was just waiting for this game to start now.

07:23:06.700 --> 07:23:10.900
I think the thermal is taking a big break here, which is, maybe they're in, actually.

07:23:10.900 --> 07:23:13.460
They look serious but they always look serious. I'm actually not sure.

07:23:14.420 --> 07:23:18.500
Yeah, they do look so serious. They both walked in at this phase of the tournament. There's no more

07:23:18.500 --> 07:23:25.060
joking around. Yeah, it started. Okay, let me... Okay, my figure's not working but I got the tool.

07:23:27.300 --> 07:23:29.540
Get in here. Did it make it happen?

07:23:32.420 --> 07:23:37.060
All right. Two minutes late? Well, I'm sorry. I'll hop in here.

07:23:37.060 --> 07:23:41.740
Anything that happened we got a Vietnam pick as well. They're back Vietnam

07:23:42.700 --> 07:23:48.860
Grubby Vietnamese that paper money back on the menu. Oh, love to see it. Yeah, this time it's in grubby's hands

07:23:48.860 --> 07:23:51.480
Of course, remember it's hidden pick nor pee. It's not like a fearless draft

07:23:51.480 --> 07:23:55.560
So if you haven't played the city you can always still play it and here we go two minutes late

07:23:55.560 --> 07:24:02.180
It's on me, but we're into the game Vietnamese for a grubby and the Malian's free thermal malice has been like his trusted

07:24:02.180 --> 07:24:07.660
Siv on Arabia. I think he's had like Portuguese and Malians and then after that he's got nothing that he's like prepared

07:24:08.140 --> 07:24:11.240
But he's locked into the millions and he tends to play them similar to the Portuguese

07:24:11.240 --> 07:24:15.500
We've placed a lot of archers last siege. Of course, you think was one of the last Arabian game

07:24:16.220 --> 07:24:20.780
Let's see if you can kind of do it again get the second win on Arabia

07:24:20.780 --> 07:24:24.940
Grubby though with the Vietnamese potentially with a nice counter pick if you thermals play archers

07:24:24.940 --> 07:24:26.940
You just have some of the best terms in the game

07:24:27.420 --> 07:24:31.940
Could be a nice matchup. And so is Grubby already got the ball? Oh, he's ready. Go his first one

07:24:32.180 --> 07:24:37.420
I think that's correct. Yeah, the second one on the way soon. We were a couple bit of slates. So we're catching up now

07:24:39.700 --> 07:24:46.900
Yeah, yeah, I mean last two games you thermal looked great game plan super solid on Arabia and then grabby looked amazing on arena

07:24:46.900 --> 07:24:50.660
So it's kind of do or die here. You thermals got a show. We can do it again

07:24:50.660 --> 07:24:57.500
I will say though the Arabia matchup looks a lot closer than the arena one did like you thermal look a lot more lost than arena

07:24:57.500 --> 07:25:00.800
Whereas the last Arabian match, Gruby was actually leading for the majority of it.

07:25:00.800 --> 07:25:02.740
Obviously, Thermal don't want to take anything away from him.

07:25:02.740 --> 07:25:08.620
He had a great pushback and a great finishing blow, but I feel like Gruby is not one to

07:25:08.620 --> 07:25:10.380
be underestimated in this Arabian match.

07:25:10.380 --> 07:25:16.700
Yeah, Gruby was very much in the driver's seat for a good portion of that Arabian game

07:25:16.700 --> 07:25:20.620
and then kind of let it slip, but very good at applying the pressure.

07:25:20.620 --> 07:25:23.460
Yeah, well, I will see if he goes for like the men-armors again.

07:25:23.460 --> 07:25:25.460
The Vietnamese don't have to play aggressive.

07:25:25.460 --> 07:25:26.860
They have such a good scaling style.

07:25:26.860 --> 07:25:31.320
Then you can just sit back relax play some range units trade back and forth and be completely okay with it

07:25:32.280 --> 07:25:33.540
We'll see what he decides to go

07:25:33.540 --> 07:25:38.020
It could be like a lot of the strategies in this game is just personal preference what players like to do their comfort zone

07:25:38.100 --> 07:25:41.260
Not so much about like pro meta and matchup knowledge, which is fair enough

07:25:45.980 --> 07:25:49.660
So if you were to place your bet what who you going for then

07:25:51.100 --> 07:25:53.100
Actually, I want both your opinions

07:25:53.100 --> 07:25:56.220
Okay, judging from the maps, I'll give you like a strategic prediction here.

07:25:56.220 --> 07:25:59.620
I'm not a betting man, but if I were, look at this map from Thermal,

07:25:59.620 --> 07:26:01.100
and the fact that he won the last Arabian game,

07:26:01.100 --> 07:26:03.780
I feel like he's in a prime position to win this one as well.

07:26:03.780 --> 07:26:06.980
However, one thing to consider, if Grubby also has a good map,

07:26:06.980 --> 07:26:08.940
and Grubby's Siv is kind of a counter pick.

07:26:08.940 --> 07:26:10.740
So actually, I'm going to change my prediction.

07:26:10.740 --> 07:26:13.500
I would say that Grubby probably wins, so work with that as well.

07:26:13.500 --> 07:26:14.940
He talked through your own prediction.

07:26:14.940 --> 07:26:15.580
Yeah.

07:26:15.580 --> 07:26:19.300
Uh, I'll pick you, Thermal, both because he did great in the last Arabian,

07:26:19.300 --> 07:26:22.100
and also because I would really love to see you game five. It'd be awesome.

07:26:22.100 --> 07:26:34.100
It looks like they both have really good maps, honestly, just for, like, getting a nice clean wall, no holes, and not getting poked off too easily by archers.

07:26:34.100 --> 07:26:40.100
Yeah, well, when you have good maps like this, we'll just fill in the conversation as great places this bet on the channel.

07:26:40.100 --> 07:26:44.100
When you have good maps like this, you can easily just wall up and play minimal army.

07:26:44.100 --> 07:26:48.100
However, the good maps have really not been exploited that much from the players in this competition.

07:26:48.100 --> 07:26:53.260
Competition players are usually coming into the game plan and they're gonna play that game plan no matter what their map looks like

07:26:53.260 --> 07:26:58.200
This is actually kind of normal because most these players are stark of players and a work of players correctly from wrong

07:26:58.300 --> 07:27:00.780
But in those maps the maps are usually set

07:27:00.980 --> 07:27:04.620
Whereas in age of empires to there's that random element so while the map is Arabia

07:27:04.820 --> 07:27:09.380
Sometimes they were gold spawn to the back sometimes it's more open sometimes. It's you know more closed

07:27:09.380 --> 07:27:13.160
Etc. And so that's kind of a unique factor for age of empires

07:27:13.160 --> 07:27:17.600
You just have to adapt to your map and the players aren't really doing that that well to be fair

07:27:17.600 --> 07:27:21.920
And so here like grubby's gonna go for men arm rush with a map like this

07:27:21.920 --> 07:27:26.720
I feel like most pros would not do men arms to just wall up and play straight into the ranges because they can

07:27:28.560 --> 07:27:35.440
If in terms of the RNG the map if you have your goal to the back does your opponent also they go to the back

07:27:35.440 --> 07:27:37.440
No completely irrelevant

07:27:37.440 --> 07:27:40.440
The only thing that's the same is the woodland count.

07:27:40.440 --> 07:27:44.000
So the amount of woodland you have in the distance to your TC, that's the same.

07:27:44.000 --> 07:27:46.000
The rest is completely random.

07:27:46.000 --> 07:27:47.800
Barrier position, gold position, et cetera.

07:27:47.800 --> 07:27:48.360
It's random.

07:27:49.240 --> 07:27:50.200
Devs, what is this?

07:27:50.240 --> 07:27:51.240
What is this nonsense?

07:27:51.400 --> 07:27:53.680
How are the pros meant to manage with this?

07:27:54.000 --> 07:27:55.200
It's too random.

07:27:55.240 --> 07:27:58.000
It's actually good, but it's the reason why we have best of nines.

07:27:58.000 --> 07:28:01.040
The last time where you almost missed your bus, you know, sitting down the Royal Albert Hall,

07:28:01.320 --> 07:28:03.800
wondering why there's the best of nine and not just the best of five.

07:28:04.040 --> 07:28:06.920
It's because you're trying to weed out the randomness from these random elements.

07:28:06.920 --> 07:28:11.160
I think it's both a blessing and a curse for AV2, there's been some cases of unfair maps,

07:28:11.160 --> 07:28:13.880
but I think overall, the better player usually wins, I would say.

07:28:14.840 --> 07:28:18.120
Yeah, I mean, I always thought it was just because you were tilted for those first two games.

07:28:19.000 --> 07:28:24.360
Yeah, maybe. That's also a fact to do, to be fair. The tilt is real sometimes.

07:28:25.160 --> 07:28:29.560
Also, as someone who comes from like a StarCraft or WarCraft background, mostly StarCraft,

07:28:29.560 --> 07:28:33.320
I like it about Asian Fights. It's really cool. Not knowing exactly where everything

07:28:33.320 --> 07:28:36.760
exactly is in the map at all times and having a build perfectly designed to that map.

07:28:36.760 --> 07:28:39.520
makes it more adaptable and fun.

07:28:39.520 --> 07:28:43.200
Like you can be a player who recognizes the map early

07:28:43.200 --> 07:28:44.440
and makes a different adjustment

07:28:44.440 --> 07:28:45.400
and get an advantage from that.

07:28:45.400 --> 07:28:46.240
It's cool.

07:28:46.240 --> 07:28:47.760
I know there's some bad lucks down there,

07:28:47.760 --> 07:28:50.040
but it doesn't seem like horrible usually.

07:28:50.040 --> 07:28:51.880
Yeah, it makes scouting more about like,

07:28:51.880 --> 07:28:53.640
I mean, there is, you have to scout what your opponent's doing,

07:28:53.640 --> 07:28:56.040
but you also have to scout where your opponent's resources are

07:28:56.040 --> 07:28:57.160
and what he could do based on that.

07:28:57.160 --> 07:28:59.080
So as you can see here, the forward varies.

07:28:59.080 --> 07:29:00.480
I doubt grabby scout on this,

07:29:00.480 --> 07:29:01.780
I said I want to go for Miner Arm Rush,

07:29:01.780 --> 07:29:04.800
but Miner Arms interforward varies is actually fantastic.

07:29:04.800 --> 07:29:06.220
And so now you throw him smartly,

07:29:06.220 --> 07:29:08.740
He has to if the bears at the back. You probably wouldn't have to

07:29:09.180 --> 07:29:13.020
So it kind of just changes the dynamic for this game, but we're seeing the same thing from game one

07:29:13.340 --> 07:29:18.940
We're gonna ignore this if we're a thermal and I go attack with the scouts and to be considered a counter-attacks

07:29:18.940 --> 07:29:23.200
You can take the battle to grubby's base grubby not a single spearman. Maybe cut off guard by this

07:29:23.820 --> 07:29:28.860
Yeah, no spears totally open berries totally open gold if there was three scouts here

07:29:28.860 --> 07:29:30.860
It would be like a guaranteed a bunch. He's gonna get at least

07:29:31.900 --> 07:29:35.580
Doesn't and we have a loom. Yeah, we do have loom the early loom from gravity

07:29:35.580 --> 07:29:41.420
of course very wise very wise and then I'm gonna see a little bit more damage from those three

07:29:41.420 --> 07:29:45.500
scouts given how open it is yeah I agree I think you can commit it to that bill by the way you'll

07:29:45.500 --> 07:29:50.220
lose you know some scout HP but I think you could have killed that villager you thermal backs off

07:29:50.220 --> 07:29:54.620
for a better you know better engagement oh find that it's a question they're running through he's

07:29:54.620 --> 07:29:59.820
gonna dive this is intentional he's diving and he delete the water the leader I don't know if you

07:29:59.820 --> 07:30:02.500
can get around though. There's a scout here. It's beautiful.

07:30:03.500 --> 07:30:04.660
Beautiful.

07:30:04.660 --> 07:30:06.300
Wow. Wow.

07:30:06.300 --> 07:30:07.800
Done from you, thermal.

07:30:07.800 --> 07:30:09.700
Wow, that was really well done.

07:30:09.700 --> 07:30:12.600
And the house goes around, scouts are back.

07:30:12.600 --> 07:30:13.680
We talked about that in the first game.

07:30:13.680 --> 07:30:15.640
You can attack and then get back on defense as well.

07:30:15.640 --> 07:30:16.780
Are you thermal villagers, though?

07:30:16.780 --> 07:30:18.380
Taking matters into his own hands.

07:30:18.380 --> 07:30:19.640
Look at this guy.

07:30:19.640 --> 07:30:20.940
You have to kill at least one.

07:30:20.940 --> 07:30:23.620
You have to kill a villager. Please.

07:30:23.620 --> 07:30:24.620
Thank me.

07:30:26.420 --> 07:30:28.460
Yeah, really nice defense, honestly.

07:30:28.460 --> 07:30:30.860
You could still lose one bill maybe.

07:30:31.860 --> 07:30:32.960
The archers...

07:30:33.660 --> 07:30:35.360
Cal, so clear this up nicely and...

07:30:35.360 --> 07:30:36.860
A garrison here would be nice.

07:30:36.860 --> 07:30:37.560
Garrison's not!

07:30:37.560 --> 07:30:40.460
Don't get how he can micro his villagers that well.

07:30:40.760 --> 07:30:43.060
And then also wander them off to the middle of the map to die.

07:30:43.060 --> 07:30:43.960
Yes!

07:30:43.960 --> 07:30:45.560
Distracted penguins.

07:30:46.460 --> 07:30:47.360
It's literally like...

07:30:47.760 --> 07:30:48.560
Yin Yang.

07:30:48.560 --> 07:30:50.360
Like, it just depends on the day you thermalize that.

07:30:50.360 --> 07:30:52.360
Killing his villagers or saving all of them.

07:30:53.560 --> 07:30:56.360
Fair enough, we'll keep an eye on the thermaling of more villagers or not.

07:30:56.360 --> 07:30:57.660
But Grabby's coming forward with some archers.

07:30:57.660 --> 07:31:03.540
And remember Vietnamese archers they have more HP that's kind of offset by the fact that millions they collect gold faster

07:31:03.540 --> 07:31:08.300
And they also have a nice wood saving bonus their buildings are all 15% cheaper

07:31:08.300 --> 07:31:14.580
So now let's are getting some savings and some discounts and Vietnamese getting the raw power to straight into the archers

07:31:14.640 --> 07:31:17.220
Here we go then engagements big big engage

07:31:20.900 --> 07:31:25.580
Fun facts about Molly that's that's your that's your angle spiff tell us history, okay, so

07:31:25.580 --> 07:31:32.380
So Marley's most famous person of all is of course Mansa Musa, a man so wealthy he basically

07:31:32.380 --> 07:31:35.340
caused economic crashes wherever he visited.

07:31:35.340 --> 07:31:39.260
His level of wealth is pretty much unparalleled.

07:31:39.260 --> 07:31:40.820
It is just absurd.

07:31:40.820 --> 07:31:46.660
Maybe at his peak Julius Caesar could have rivaled it, but the man was so minted he could

07:31:46.660 --> 07:31:50.260
have destroyed the world if he just kept alive for a long period of time.

07:31:50.260 --> 07:31:52.260
One of the icons of history.

07:31:52.260 --> 07:31:55.820
What do you make of the people saying it's a myth because someone's chat said that but

07:31:55.820 --> 07:31:56.820
I've heard that before.

07:31:56.820 --> 07:32:00.500
Is that like historically documented or is it like a bit?

07:32:00.500 --> 07:32:05.660
Yeah, there are definitely some historians who would basically say that maybe it's not

07:32:05.660 --> 07:32:10.940
as big or impactful as some narratives would say.

07:32:10.940 --> 07:32:15.620
However, definitely the actual impact is known.

07:32:15.620 --> 07:32:20.980
So definitely a chap who existed definitely caused a lot of chaos and I think most historians,

07:32:20.980 --> 07:32:26.460
consensus is yet hundred percent this guy was a mental historical figure six

07:32:26.460 --> 07:32:31.060
orders coming in here from your thermal and it's gonna be coming at a perfect

07:32:31.060 --> 07:32:37.060
time so half HP grubby though oh my god get this will perfect reaction from

07:32:37.060 --> 07:32:40.840
grubby if he's reacted a second that he was it both players have not lost the

07:32:40.840 --> 07:32:43.700
villagers so far grubby will all the top he's gotta get a little quicker there

07:32:43.700 --> 07:32:47.380
perfect and I can just defend at the bottom your thermal though in a prime

07:32:47.380 --> 07:32:52.540
selling the stone with the market that's a pro move that hasn't been used at all

07:32:52.540 --> 07:32:55.840
this tournament you thermal brings it out and potentially his last game of the

07:32:55.840 --> 07:32:58.580
tournament he's got to win this one to stay alive selling the stones in a

07:32:58.580 --> 07:33:02.700
faster castle time that is beautiful day nine oh you're standing on top of the

07:33:02.700 --> 07:33:09.140
hill a truck used to sorry a truck used it it's good probably learned it from a

07:33:09.140 --> 07:33:13.300
truck yeah he's probably gonna credit me at the end of his speech that's crazy

07:33:13.300 --> 07:33:23.300
If you were on a hill, you can't predict it, you can't predict it guys, just because you said you'd bet on Grubby.

07:33:23.300 --> 07:33:27.300
If you fumble now loses this, people can say it's match fixing, so you go to be careful.

07:33:27.300 --> 07:33:28.300
Yeah, that's true.

07:33:28.300 --> 07:33:30.300
We'll see how it goes.

07:33:30.300 --> 07:33:33.300
Grubby, are you thinking about this as a scout there?

07:33:33.300 --> 07:33:37.300
Sorry, we cut you off very rude of us, but you had a question about the hill, right?

07:33:37.300 --> 07:33:38.300
I have a question.

07:33:38.300 --> 07:33:45.400
So if you have an archer on a hill, do they have greater range or is it just greater damage greater damage and they take less damage

07:33:45.400 --> 07:33:47.700
So maybe like greater damage and greater resistance

07:33:48.900 --> 07:33:50.900
nice makes sense

07:33:51.020 --> 07:33:53.020
to rain just for grubby and

07:33:54.700 --> 07:33:58.540
He's in a good spot. He's delayed the castlage which usually means you have to fight right now

07:33:58.780 --> 07:34:02.240
Because if you thermal gets upgrades right outside your base, that's really bad

07:34:02.240 --> 07:34:06.940
So grubby delay this you got to fight him and kind of kick him back, but grubby's kind of just going forward

07:34:06.940 --> 07:34:14.080
Ignore the classic. I've got my archers on your woodline strat. Yeah, it's been a very popular place you players

07:34:14.700 --> 07:34:18.600
Grubby just click castle. It's gonna be a two-minute advantage

07:34:19.440 --> 07:34:22.100
With faster xbox faster bodkin

07:34:22.700 --> 07:34:26.980
That's gonna be really tough to withstand. He still has his tower though

07:34:26.980 --> 07:34:31.120
The tower still in there like you don't know what can't make a towers if Grubby gets onto this goal

07:34:31.120 --> 07:34:32.580
That could be kind of annoying

07:34:32.580 --> 07:34:35.060
But maybe just a tower to defend here for Grubby could be nice

07:34:35.060 --> 07:34:41.680
Yeah, there's crossbow. There's boxing coming in two minutes of pressure beautiful be really tough that yeah smart tower

07:34:41.680 --> 07:34:43.680
You're right smart smart tower and the wall

07:34:44.960 --> 07:34:46.960
Good play from grubby

07:34:49.960 --> 07:34:54.320
Counterattack, yeah, honestly really really well played for being behind a castle

07:34:54.320 --> 07:34:59.200
Well, we're looking for free you thermal right now is a university getting ballistics is super good in archer war

07:34:59.200 --> 07:35:02.840
But it's first have to deal with this. It could be a dead villager. You gotta notice it. He's gotta notice it

07:35:02.840 --> 07:35:08.560
He does loses one build. That's pretty good for grubby. You thermal is going for the poor with siege by the way

07:35:08.920 --> 07:35:10.920
Could dive this tower. Oh

07:35:11.920 --> 07:35:13.800
My god, we're gonna go for a dive in a way

07:35:14.520 --> 07:35:16.680
Yeah, you don't want to lose these

07:35:18.080 --> 07:35:22.200
Just to that tower is getting a lot of value that tower is obviously mandatory

07:35:22.200 --> 07:35:26.840
So good call from grabby to go for it. You thermal wisely backs off this had the siege push here

07:35:26.840 --> 07:35:31.360
And he's just dealing with some annoying archers behind his base. He's moving woodlands across. It's not the best lumber camp

07:35:31.360 --> 07:35:35.680
I feel like you thermal had to make a lumber camp and a mining camp his economy is very fragile

07:35:35.680 --> 07:35:37.680
You can't really afford these kind of the

07:35:37.840 --> 07:35:42.120
Dude after you get just locked off wood line and you have to make to 100 wood worth of the

07:35:43.960 --> 07:35:49.200
Yeah, hopefully you can clean this up before those archers upgrade from grubby because then it's a real harassment problem

07:35:49.200 --> 07:35:53.400
Yeah, great looping from grubby by the way just hits the gold loops to the wood looks to the other gold

07:35:53.800 --> 07:35:55.480
Stay on the hill

07:35:55.480 --> 07:35:57.480
Talk to about what that does

07:35:58.120 --> 07:36:00.120
Or you don't want to lose any more bills here

07:36:01.360 --> 07:36:04.200
but you are losing more bills here down five

07:36:04.200 --> 07:36:10.160
I wonder how how's uh you throw harassment going okay this is great wait this is game ending almost

07:36:10.160 --> 07:36:15.400
this is big no these scurms for grubby not at least scurms no botkin yet

07:36:15.400 --> 07:36:19.600
oh my god you thermal could win the game right here he's got great micro as well

07:36:19.600 --> 07:36:25.400
getting out micro actually oh yeah

07:36:25.400 --> 07:36:27.240
Hey, Grubby's kind of crazy. Holy.

07:36:27.240 --> 07:36:29.240
He's being pushed over him.

07:36:29.240 --> 07:36:31.740
That was really insane, Grubby.

07:36:31.740 --> 07:36:34.500
Grubby, Grubby, that's so well done.

07:36:34.500 --> 07:36:37.240
That was like freakin' pixel-perfect micros, ridiculous.

07:36:37.240 --> 07:36:40.740
He was dodging with individual, unupgraded scurms.

07:36:40.740 --> 07:36:44.140
Wow, to force away much stronger army.

07:36:44.140 --> 07:36:46.440
Yeah, still need elite scurms, though.

07:36:46.440 --> 07:36:49.140
Townsend is really, really risky here

07:36:49.140 --> 07:36:50.300
in the face of a siege bush.

07:36:50.300 --> 07:36:52.340
Grubby almost also build theirs to the manganoles.

07:36:52.340 --> 07:36:53.300
Tell us the defend.

07:36:53.300 --> 07:36:55.720
We need defensive siege that counts there, I think.

07:36:55.720 --> 07:36:57.360
He probably couldn't really afford that.

07:36:57.360 --> 07:37:01.340
The tower will continue to defend him for now, but it's looking rough for Rubby without missing...

07:37:01.340 --> 07:37:03.240
Or sorry, with missing these grusher attacks.

07:37:04.180 --> 07:37:05.180
Warshup's good.

07:37:07.320 --> 07:37:09.560
So there's two manganelles versus zero.

07:37:09.560 --> 07:37:11.320
He has to get something done with it.

07:37:15.020 --> 07:37:19.120
If you're a Eiffel, well, do you just not push in with your two manganelles and try and press the advantage?

07:37:19.120 --> 07:37:21.120
Or you just get what your opponent might have?

07:37:21.120 --> 07:37:25.120
So, because he sold the stone, he can't add in another town center.

07:37:25.120 --> 07:37:28.320
So his advantage, like to press it, he kind of has to fight something.

07:37:28.320 --> 07:37:31.880
You don't have to go like, you know, a Maginaw happy and just start diving, but you can just

07:37:31.880 --> 07:37:36.160
sit on the outskirts and just start like nuking these buildings, but he's got to do something,

07:37:36.160 --> 07:37:37.160
I would say.

07:37:37.160 --> 07:37:41.120
So far, it's okay, but killing houses is not as good as killing production buildings, so.

07:37:41.120 --> 07:37:44.760
Okay, your thermal's got to kind of put his foot on the gas a little bit.

07:37:44.760 --> 07:37:45.760
Sneaky Villager from Grubby.

07:37:45.760 --> 07:37:49.520
I wonder if he thermal'd it, or maybe this is intentional as well.

07:37:49.520 --> 07:37:54.880
get that gold we'll see what he does with that one house warehouse for now so the

07:37:54.880 --> 07:38:01.920
first man goes gonna come out from from grubby and it's so important if it's a

07:38:01.920 --> 07:38:06.120
big hit this game could be over and that would be the ultimate defense yeah

07:38:06.120 --> 07:38:09.320
same situation as the first game though oh god this is gonna be such an important

07:38:09.320 --> 07:38:16.880
shot oh he blocked himself oh look himself you thermal wow try some attack

07:38:16.880 --> 07:38:20.660
But does lose a magnet I was forced around this could be kind of a blessing though

07:38:20.660 --> 07:38:23.920
He's trying to push him through here on the tower was so not gonna work like

07:38:24.020 --> 07:38:26.020
Go right out going around here is the way to go

07:38:26.120 --> 07:38:29.800
So pressuring these buildings kill the houses kill the ranges open up

07:38:29.800 --> 07:38:34.280
Maybe some hill bonus so you can take advantage of here and yet grubby actually you thermal did so he's gonna

07:38:34.280 --> 07:38:36.280
Just go back home with the with the villager

07:38:37.200 --> 07:38:41.640
Just saying hi a nice house. He lives there. Don't shame him

07:38:42.040 --> 07:38:45.440
Yeah, I mean you could kill the ranges, right? Yeah, you said like that would be a nice

07:38:46.880 --> 07:38:51.440
Um, oh man, you have to watch your manganelles. I mean, I'm guilty this all the time. You just

07:38:52.160 --> 07:38:54.800
I've learned that if you let one manganelle destroy your push

07:38:56.480 --> 07:38:58.480
All your energy is gone. All your momentum

07:38:59.200 --> 07:39:04.640
In the manganelle micro we did see you fern will come out pretty comfortably on top. Yeah, it's true

07:39:05.840 --> 07:39:09.840
And he was also good at the cross from like he's not so many crosses. There's 22 cross was here

07:39:10.000 --> 07:39:12.480
Something like a dozen skirmishers at best

07:39:13.760 --> 07:39:15.760
Two manganelles

07:39:15.760 --> 07:39:20.160
economy doesn't seem too different either like it does seem like you find

07:39:20.160 --> 07:39:23.080
we're still keeping in the game I mean of course it's gonna blur proportions

07:39:23.080 --> 07:39:27.960
with the difference in TC's yeah yeah for the time being it's actually

07:39:27.960 --> 07:39:32.120
completely even for sure and that what what grubby has an extra villagers it's

07:39:32.120 --> 07:39:35.840
like all the inefficiencies of moving around and the long distance gathering

07:39:35.840 --> 07:39:39.920
due to the pressure kind of evens out grubby just has to hold those got that

07:39:39.920 --> 07:39:43.360
extra TC, fighting up hill is hard though.

07:39:43.360 --> 07:39:47.520
W is going to be a bit wood starved too, like he's going to have to rebuild his archery

07:39:47.520 --> 07:39:50.920
ranges, he's going to have to rebuild some houses.

07:39:50.920 --> 07:39:51.920
We've seen this story before.

07:39:51.920 --> 07:39:52.920
Oh, the classic.

07:39:52.920 --> 07:39:53.920
And then the harassment.

07:39:53.920 --> 07:40:02.480
I mean, definitely a press of pressure for him, but do you think he should get a second

07:40:02.480 --> 07:40:03.480
TC behind this?

07:40:03.480 --> 07:40:06.240
Is this really going to get him in push?

07:40:06.240 --> 07:40:07.240
That's one mango.

07:40:07.240 --> 07:40:11.320
talked about this is two scrims in a mango just kind of donated for grubby doesn't

07:40:11.320 --> 07:40:13.960
need to get another town center he could if he wants to but honestly the push is

07:40:13.960 --> 07:40:18.040
so hot that he probably doesn't need to one for one head up top wow when you have

07:40:18.040 --> 07:40:20.840
this many mangos a truck you don't really need another town center because

07:40:20.840 --> 07:40:23.920
you can actually kill so much if the push gets stopped then you start thinking

07:40:23.920 --> 07:40:27.320
about maybe another town center so okay that's not how confident he is that

07:40:27.320 --> 07:40:30.720
she makes me happen with these mangoes

07:40:30.720 --> 07:40:33.720
They shot here?

07:40:33.720 --> 07:40:37.720
No, but they're attacking their Manganos. Are they targeting the actual enemy, or are

07:40:37.720 --> 07:40:40.720
they just attacking the ground in a prediction?

07:40:40.720 --> 07:40:43.720
Both can work. So sometimes you get attacked around and predict where your opponent's moving.

07:40:43.720 --> 07:40:47.720
Sometimes you can just right click. Both can work. That was a right click, and he dodges it.

07:40:47.720 --> 07:40:50.720
That's a right click on both sides, but he right-clicked the archer.

07:40:50.720 --> 07:40:53.720
So you can do a mix of both, but so far, Ethan was actually taking better trades.

07:40:53.720 --> 07:40:59.720
We have 10 villagers. He is moving to the middle of the map. No ballistics though, so it's hard to actually lock down these crossbows with just scrims.

07:40:59.720 --> 07:41:02.760
And that counter that skirmishers just kind of uses so far

07:41:04.560 --> 07:41:09.200
Does uh, there's you thermal obelisks and no blitzx for either side. Oh

07:41:09.960 --> 07:41:13.600
Oh, oh grab against a one for zero. He's looking for the other one

07:41:14.560 --> 07:41:19.040
You know what smartly dodges you think the cross was shed out like for this one. He loves to do that

07:41:19.960 --> 07:41:23.800
You would love to kill that. Oh, look at that really important

07:41:23.800 --> 07:41:32.800
There's a lot of pressure on these Manganos to get some damage here. If you're down at TC, you do have to do something eventually.

07:41:32.800 --> 07:41:38.800
Grubby having that second TC, it doesn't really make a difference because he's got six minutes of idle time.

07:41:38.800 --> 07:41:44.800
Yeah, that's a really good point. He's building ahead in Vils, but it's 10 Vils, but look how inefficient they are.

07:41:44.800 --> 07:41:50.800
A lot of idle time in the Pound Centers, a lot of villagers idle. I would say it's actually neck and neck in terms of economy right now.

07:41:50.800 --> 07:41:55.440
right now it's just that grubby's got more potential in terms of economy if the pressure subsides

07:41:57.360 --> 07:42:02.480
oh one for one oh he's stuck oh got that hit off last second though trying to micro with some

07:42:02.480 --> 07:42:08.720
skirmishers both players have shown exceptional micro in this tournament wow he's just walking

07:42:08.720 --> 07:42:15.680
forward yeah oh wow i think he killed himself kind of your thermal hurt his own magnet also

07:42:15.680 --> 07:42:19.840
the skirmishers finished it off that was a really bad play for your thermal with the magnet maybe

07:42:19.840 --> 07:42:21.440
What's going on with these manganelles?

07:42:22.600 --> 07:42:23.600
Oh, watch out!

07:42:23.600 --> 07:42:24.600
Good splits.

07:42:25.240 --> 07:42:26.240
So intense.

07:42:26.240 --> 07:42:27.240
But this next hit could be the worst!

07:42:27.560 --> 07:42:30.040
Oh, he lands it! That's huge!

07:42:30.040 --> 07:42:31.040
Repairs for Grubby.

07:42:31.040 --> 07:42:32.040
He's got the skirmishers.

07:42:32.040 --> 07:42:33.040
There's no manganelle.

07:42:33.040 --> 07:42:34.040
The Gigi's called!

07:42:34.040 --> 07:42:35.040
Wow!

07:42:35.040 --> 07:42:36.040
Grubby takes the win.

07:42:36.040 --> 07:42:37.040
Wow.

07:42:37.040 --> 07:42:38.040
Gigi in the chat.

07:42:38.040 --> 07:42:39.040
That was insane.

07:42:39.040 --> 07:42:40.040
What a response from Grubby.

07:42:40.040 --> 07:42:42.040
He got beat out with the manganelle microphone.

07:42:42.040 --> 07:42:44.440
And the first Arabia responds beautifully there.

07:42:44.440 --> 07:42:47.640
And you thermal just couldn't hang within this game.

07:42:47.640 --> 07:42:48.640
What a game.

07:42:48.640 --> 07:42:49.640
What's that?

07:42:49.640 --> 07:42:50.640
well played by Grubby.

07:42:50.640 --> 07:42:53.180
The pressure was intense and he was stood it super well

07:42:53.180 --> 07:42:55.440
with the second TC, which is hard to get up

07:42:55.440 --> 07:42:56.280
while you're being pressured.

07:42:56.280 --> 07:42:57.880
It's kind of a huge risk.

07:42:57.880 --> 07:43:00.160
He did it and still held.

07:43:00.160 --> 07:43:01.000
So impressive, man.

07:43:01.000 --> 07:43:01.840
So impressive.

07:43:01.840 --> 07:43:02.680
That was a hell of a game.

07:43:02.680 --> 07:43:03.700
We have to say it though, guys.

07:43:03.700 --> 07:43:06.160
While Grubby will win in spectacular fashion

07:43:06.160 --> 07:43:08.000
and move on to face Lance, actually,

07:43:08.000 --> 07:43:09.400
Captain Lance in the next round,

07:43:09.400 --> 07:43:11.920
that's gonna be the Loser's finals, basically.

07:43:11.920 --> 07:43:13.560
We'll show you guys the bracket here.

07:43:13.560 --> 07:43:15.560
But I do want to say, before we even look at the bracket,

07:43:15.560 --> 07:43:16.880
really well played by Thinermall.

07:43:16.880 --> 07:43:18.320
A great tournament from him.

07:43:18.320 --> 07:43:21.880
he had the toughest bracket run out of all the players you can argue

07:43:21.880 --> 07:43:23.600
and he honestly showed really good heart

07:43:23.600 --> 07:43:26.280
you can make the argument that he loses out mostly

07:43:26.280 --> 07:43:29.360
just used to knowledge uh... you know knowledge gaps on arena and red set

07:43:29.360 --> 07:43:30.920
fortress that really heard him

07:43:30.920 --> 07:43:34.200
in those late rounds against the captains but guys before he goes out

07:43:34.200 --> 07:43:35.000
away

07:43:35.000 --> 07:43:38.960
uh... oh sevens in the chat free thermal eyes fantastic from him

07:43:38.960 --> 07:43:41.440
i love what he brought to the table really cool guy

07:43:41.440 --> 07:43:44.640
uh... awesome starcraft representation from him and uh...

07:43:44.640 --> 07:43:46.960
i think he's a great player i really do you

07:43:46.960 --> 07:43:50.040
But in some ways, that places him fourth in the tournament, right?

07:43:50.240 --> 07:43:51.760
Yeah, he gets a fourth place result.

07:43:51.760 --> 07:43:52.960
It's not bad. This money there.

07:43:52.960 --> 07:43:55.600
Not as much a spiffing Brit with the good predictions there.

07:43:55.600 --> 07:43:59.760
But a decent amount of money for him to walk away happy with that.

07:44:02.240 --> 07:44:04.320
Yeah, what a great, great play by him.

07:44:04.520 --> 07:44:05.920
Really, really awesome player.

07:44:05.920 --> 07:44:08.440
And obviously he's probably cheering on Pig for the last StarCraft 2

07:44:08.440 --> 07:44:09.680
chance for this tournament.

07:44:09.680 --> 07:44:14.280
Yeah, yeah, gotta stick to their or or you cheer against Pig

07:44:14.280 --> 07:44:16.000
because you want to be like seen as like, oh,

07:44:16.000 --> 07:44:17.920
The StarCraft guys were good, but you know,

07:44:17.920 --> 07:44:19.760
you throw one pig with the same level.

07:44:19.760 --> 07:44:20.840
Depends on the ego, really.

07:44:20.840 --> 07:44:23.120
It's the point I'm making.

07:44:23.120 --> 07:44:24.680
That's right, tell me something about Sing Sing.

07:44:24.680 --> 07:44:26.520
I'm like, hey, well, me and Sing Sing

07:44:26.520 --> 07:44:27.640
said level in the bracket.

07:44:27.640 --> 07:44:31.360
And we don't know your two potentials.

07:44:31.360 --> 07:44:32.200
Can you overstep them?

07:44:32.200 --> 07:44:33.040
And we don't know where I could have gone.

07:44:33.040 --> 07:44:34.000
I could have won this tournament.

07:44:34.000 --> 07:44:34.840
You can't win a whole tournament.

07:44:34.840 --> 07:44:35.340
Yeah.

07:44:35.340 --> 07:44:35.840
You can win a whole tournament.

07:44:35.840 --> 07:44:39.080
Who knows what happens.

07:44:39.080 --> 07:44:40.440
But guys, take a look at the bracket here.

07:44:40.440 --> 07:44:42.560
So Grubby will beat out you thermal.

07:44:42.560 --> 07:44:44.440
Cap Lanz is up next in the loser bracket final.

07:44:44.440 --> 07:44:47.280
The winner of that face is Pig, loser gets third place.

07:44:47.280 --> 07:44:48.920
It's been a fantastic event so far.

07:44:48.920 --> 07:44:49.880
Let's take a look at the updates.

07:44:49.880 --> 07:44:50.720
Maybe they've got it.

07:44:50.720 --> 07:44:52.120
There it is, Grubby Captain Lance.

07:44:52.120 --> 07:44:53.520
This has to be like 15, 20 minutes.

07:44:53.520 --> 07:44:54.520
So we're gonna just buy some time,

07:44:54.520 --> 07:44:56.640
but got Aatrox with me, Britt.

07:44:56.640 --> 07:44:57.600
Probably let you guys go now.

07:44:57.600 --> 07:44:59.600
Thanks so much for casting with me.

07:44:59.600 --> 07:45:01.360
Really appreciate you guys hopping in.

07:45:01.360 --> 07:45:02.720
Any last words for the chat?

07:45:05.920 --> 07:45:07.600
Also, I'll say, Britt, it was great meeting you.

07:45:07.600 --> 07:45:09.080
Really, really fun being on your team.

07:45:09.080 --> 07:45:10.360
This was an awesome event.

07:45:10.360 --> 07:45:12.040
Here, thanks for the invite.

07:45:12.040 --> 07:45:13.240
Had a really good time.

07:45:13.240 --> 07:45:16.600
I'm super honestly impressed of all these players by pig.

07:45:16.600 --> 07:45:19.320
He's just like really out of inspiring me how good he is.

07:45:19.320 --> 07:45:20.960
I'm really excited to see how he does in the finals,

07:45:20.960 --> 07:45:22.680
but excited for the rest of it.

07:45:22.680 --> 07:45:23.520
Thanks for the invite.

07:45:23.520 --> 07:45:24.360
Looking forward to the next one.

07:45:24.360 --> 07:45:26.280
And looking forward to seeing you, Hera,

07:45:26.280 --> 07:45:29.000
at the Garrison 2 in November,

07:45:29.000 --> 07:45:31.160
where I'll be casting, you will be playing.

07:45:32.160 --> 07:45:33.400
Tickets are still available for that.

07:45:33.400 --> 07:45:34.440
I think it's gonna be really, really fun,

07:45:34.440 --> 07:45:35.800
really, really cool.

07:45:35.800 --> 07:45:37.600
And definitely worth checking out.

07:45:37.600 --> 07:45:39.840
If you wanna see some actual pro level Age of Empires

07:45:39.840 --> 07:45:41.360
to go with this streamer tournament,

07:45:41.360 --> 07:45:45.040
you've gotten interested in the game. Where's that going to be? It can be in

07:45:45.040 --> 07:45:49.200
Hamburg. Let me put it up on the screen actually for the people to know. My

07:45:49.200 --> 07:45:52.720
favorite German city. If you want to get there, I can probably make that happen

07:45:52.720 --> 07:45:55.520
from the comment. HR is going to be there. I'm going to be there. The top 10 in the

07:45:55.520 --> 07:46:00.400
world will be there. 25th to 29th of November. And that's going to be a

07:46:00.400 --> 07:46:03.600
major S2 Chairman. The cool part is it's a major 1v1 S2 Chairman. They're

07:46:03.600 --> 07:46:06.720
selling tickets. You go to this website, Being Esports. My team is involved.

07:46:06.720 --> 07:46:11.120
Vitality is involved as well. It's a 1,000 person event in a premium movie

07:46:11.120 --> 07:46:15.920
theater they're selling tickets right now if you want to pick them up and the cool part about it is

07:46:15.920 --> 07:46:22.160
that it's a 1v1 pro tournament but also there's going to be a 3v3 grand finals between the two

07:46:22.160 --> 07:46:26.480
best 3v3 teams in the world i'm hoping to play in that with Vitality so it's going to be a really

07:46:26.480 --> 07:46:31.760
nice event in that regard. I heard you only expected because it's in Hamburg you thought it was

07:46:31.760 --> 07:46:36.880
hamburger and said i would 100% agree and that was really smart of them to pick that city to get

07:46:36.880 --> 07:46:40.080
get you to go. Okay, you know what's funny? You know what's funny? There's a ticket there.

07:46:40.080 --> 07:46:45.120
It's a very freeman ticket. It's a $1,000 ticket. And it's very expensive. You get like

07:46:45.120 --> 07:46:50.000
full access to everything. And on top of that, you get a state dinner at one of the most

07:46:50.000 --> 07:46:54.680
prestigious restaurants in Hamburg. A very, very nice restaurant with me and the other

07:46:54.680 --> 07:46:58.760
Vitality guys, a couple other people. Some guy posted this on my Discord. I would not

07:46:58.760 --> 07:47:02.720
want to eat with Hera or should I say against Hera? He's not going to eat much for me. No

07:47:02.720 --> 07:47:10.560
I'm paying one game for that adversarial it's a head-to-head match when you eat

07:47:10.560 --> 07:47:15.160
their hair you have to be on your guard it's like freezing food you have to

07:47:15.160 --> 07:47:18.900
over your tray he has to pay a thousand dollars just restate competition

07:47:18.900 --> 07:47:24.840
against the goat legs not gonna happen bro it's not gonna happen I think those

07:47:24.840 --> 07:47:27.880
tickets are sold out actually we got some poor kid us there they're not gonna

07:47:27.880 --> 07:47:28.960
me and he stayed after sure.

07:47:28.960 --> 07:47:30.440
He might have surprised, but no stay.

07:47:32.040 --> 07:47:33.400
Um, it should be a blast.

07:47:33.440 --> 07:47:34.560
It seems like a really, really fun time.

07:47:34.680 --> 07:47:34.920
Yeah.

07:47:34.920 --> 07:47:35.160
Yeah.

07:47:35.400 --> 07:47:36.160
I look forward to that.

07:47:36.680 --> 07:47:36.880
Yeah.

07:47:36.880 --> 07:47:40.960
My, my final part in words, I guess, are, um, thanks for, thanks to the invite.

07:47:40.960 --> 07:47:41.760
This was really fun.

07:47:41.760 --> 07:47:44.040
And I genuinely hope that I run into all of you guys again.

07:47:44.160 --> 07:47:47.960
Um, if you see me around at the event, say hi, it'll be really cool.

07:47:48.160 --> 07:47:48.400
We'll do.

07:47:48.400 --> 07:47:49.200
Thank you so much.

07:47:50.200 --> 07:47:50.720
Peace.

07:47:52.160 --> 07:47:52.640
Bye guys.

07:47:52.640 --> 07:47:53.000
Bye.

07:47:54.480 --> 07:47:54.880
All right, guys.

07:47:54.880 --> 07:47:56.720
Give it up in the chat for a truck and stiffen.

07:47:56.720 --> 07:48:01.480
Seriously, some of the best guys I've met in the streaming world, awesome people, and they really showed up today.

07:48:01.480 --> 07:48:05.640
I didn't expect to have either of them, and they both were down to come in and cast.

07:48:05.640 --> 07:48:10.520
So they really, really helped out the streaming today and the tournament final day.

07:48:10.520 --> 07:48:13.640
0-7s for them, of course, but we have someone here.

07:48:13.640 --> 07:48:19.000
Arguably more important than Hrock and Brit for the event, Uthermo, the fourth place finisher Uthermo.

07:48:19.000 --> 07:48:22.600
Talk to me about that set, man. Gigi's well played, first of all. How are you feeling, bro?

07:48:22.600 --> 07:48:31.240
Good question. I'm very relieved. It's over.

07:48:31.240 --> 07:48:37.320
You're relieved that it's over, okay. You had a good run, but talk to me. You had some ups and downs.

07:48:37.320 --> 07:48:40.280
Obviously, Arena is not your favorite. You had the name changes and whatnot. I mean,

07:48:40.280 --> 07:48:44.440
you're a fantastic character. I love your kind of humor style and whatnot, but do you enjoy the

07:48:44.440 --> 07:48:52.360
events overall? I really enjoyed the first couple weeks. I didn't enjoy playing the

07:48:52.360 --> 07:48:57.800
tournament itself, but that's because I literally just get too much anxiety for tournaments.

07:48:57.800 --> 07:49:03.480
Oh, wow. Interesting. Yeah, that's why I quit being a pro in SE2. I'm not kidding. For the last week,

07:49:03.480 --> 07:49:08.680
I haven't been able to sleep or eat properly. It just sucks. It really just sucks.

07:49:11.160 --> 07:49:14.840
Is any part of it just a streamer tournament? The stakes are not that high. Obviously,

07:49:14.840 --> 07:49:18.920
there's money on the line and whatnot, but is your brain able to process if it's not a pro

07:49:18.920 --> 07:49:22.360
tournament or is it just like I'll blend the same?

07:49:22.360 --> 07:49:29.280
Well, it just depends on if I care about winning, I guess, like I think that that's my assessment

07:49:29.280 --> 07:49:34.240
obviously for few to disagree, but I think I probably should have won this tournament

07:49:34.240 --> 07:49:39.120
and that makes it so hard because like every potential loss feels like crap, you know, so

07:49:39.120 --> 07:49:43.720
yeah, it's, well, like, I think you're the best the rape a player, and I think you have

07:49:43.720 --> 07:49:49.500
the best micro macro out of anyone, and I think they buy a decent gap. But honestly,

07:49:49.500 --> 07:49:52.100
I don't know if I'd agree with you winning the tournament, just because you looked kind

07:49:52.100 --> 07:49:55.660
of flimsy on Arena and Registrate of Fortress. Obviously, I don't want to have an argument

07:49:55.660 --> 07:49:58.340
over this after you've lost a set. It's not a big deal.

07:49:58.340 --> 07:50:00.940
No, no, no, it's fine. I completely agree with you.

07:50:00.940 --> 07:50:01.940
Yeah, it's a...

07:50:01.940 --> 07:50:02.940
At least you're the favorite.

07:50:02.940 --> 07:50:07.860
I missed a little bit of time. Yeah, that's the thing. Like, I mean, for my POV, if I...

07:50:07.860 --> 07:50:12.820
Okay, last game, I honestly... Oh, it could be almost both games against Grubby were the

07:50:12.820 --> 07:50:18.040
the best on Arabia, but I kind of thought I could probably 2-0 pretty much everyone

07:50:18.040 --> 07:50:21.600
in Arabia then surely I would win another map once, right?

07:50:21.600 --> 07:50:24.600
Not so far.

07:50:24.600 --> 07:50:31.160
Listen, you did really well and like at some points on the ladder and I still feel this

07:50:31.160 --> 07:50:36.880
way, I feel like you can easily get to like 2,000 elo, you have so much skill and with

07:50:36.880 --> 07:50:40.480
just a little bit more game knowledge, a little bit like better positioning and certain matchups

07:50:40.480 --> 07:50:46.920
Like just understanding how to exploit certain positions a bit more you're just spiked to 2k you showed that you're a great gamer and a great

07:50:46.920 --> 07:50:50.040
RTS player, so there's a lot to be proud of seriously. You've done fantastic

07:50:50.040 --> 07:50:54.040
Thank you. Thank you. I'm actually really sad to hear you dealing with some anxiety behind it

07:50:54.040 --> 07:50:59.560
Because I feel like that's a it's a big part of a termic competition that the viewers don't see and sometimes the viewers

07:50:59.560 --> 07:51:04.040
Yeah, such high expectations on their favorite players that they forget that there's that human element behind it all

07:51:04.280 --> 07:51:05.460
That's like well

07:51:05.460 --> 07:51:09.780
they're just trying their best in a day and there's a lot of nerves, a lot of psychological

07:51:09.780 --> 07:51:13.700
elements behind the scene. So a lot to love to you, man. And seriously, well done. You have a

07:51:13.700 --> 07:51:19.300
lot to be proud of. Thank you. Thank you. Yeah. And just I just want to say the event is fantastic.

07:51:19.300 --> 07:51:29.620
Like my mental health suffering is on your fault. I freaking love the ladder race and the team

07:51:29.620 --> 07:51:35.300
part. Like I had so much fun. I'm a bit sad that I was that my event collided with it because

07:51:35.300 --> 07:51:40.340
I honestly really didn't get to spend that much time practicing, only got one coaching session.

07:51:40.340 --> 07:51:45.060
I would have loved to be a bit more part of it, but I still really liked it. Chaining into

07:51:45.060 --> 07:51:52.500
Waga and Day9Stream. I don't know if you saw a hamburger's or admin, he posted the amount of

07:51:52.500 --> 07:51:57.380
messages per chat and hours at like four times. The amount of messages is all the other chats

07:51:57.380 --> 07:52:04.100
combined. It was really good vibes. They each had a Discord team chat and team thermal. I think it's

07:52:04.100 --> 07:52:09.020
still popping off like day nine yesterday got a cheer for my squad baby never leave in the channel like team

07:52:09.020 --> 07:52:11.740
Thurbaugh was just the closest knit team ever and

07:52:12.780 --> 07:52:15.700
Absolutely love that. I think it's really cool. Happy enjoyed the latter elements

07:52:15.700 --> 07:52:19.380
But I will say despite you having by the way had a very successful Starcraft events

07:52:19.780 --> 07:52:22.100
So congrats on that. Yeah, I did keep up with you. Thank you

07:52:22.100 --> 07:52:24.260
I did tune in as well a little bit

07:52:24.260 --> 07:52:26.460
But it's hard for me because I was also running this event

07:52:26.460 --> 07:52:31.220
But you know congrats on that events and I think you still did well with the time you had for the Kings Gauntlet

07:52:31.220 --> 07:52:37.780
Yeah, honestly, top 4 is not awful, I can live with it somewhat.

07:52:37.780 --> 07:52:39.300
So tough on yourself.

07:52:39.300 --> 07:52:41.300
Yeah, it's tough.

07:52:41.300 --> 07:52:49.740
No, you know what, the loss against Captain Lance was way worse for me than against Grubby.

07:52:49.740 --> 07:52:54.860
Because it's like, honestly, there was like a gargantuan skill difference on Arabia, but

07:52:54.860 --> 07:52:59.780
then I also just got both on all the other maps, so it's just like, felt dumb as hell.

07:52:59.780 --> 07:53:01.260
You felt like you're the better player.

07:53:01.260 --> 07:53:03.100
You're very likely are the better player,

07:53:03.100 --> 07:53:05.180
but you just can't piece it together on arena.

07:53:05.180 --> 07:53:07.100
You just couldn't find a single win there

07:53:07.100 --> 07:53:09.020
as he's like Castle rushing you.

07:53:09.020 --> 07:53:11.380
But he played that one like Anti-Ethermal.

07:53:11.380 --> 07:53:13.180
Castle dropped forward.

07:53:13.180 --> 07:53:14.940
No economy, fast at both times,

07:53:14.940 --> 07:53:17.340
and you just have to react with no prep on that.

07:53:17.340 --> 07:53:20.420
So you definitely have that Anti-Ethermal strat.

07:53:20.420 --> 07:53:22.820
That's kind of how it is though with competition.

07:53:22.820 --> 07:53:26.180
Yeah, I regret that one a little bit because like I said,

07:53:26.180 --> 07:53:27.300
I didn't have too much time,

07:53:27.300 --> 07:53:29.660
but I'm seeing the score line

07:53:29.660 --> 07:53:33.900
and how the wind is like, if I had one actual build on Arena,

07:53:33.900 --> 07:53:36.100
that's honestly all I needed, you know?

07:53:36.100 --> 07:53:38.740
Question, actually, why didn't you Turc Fast Dimp?

07:53:38.740 --> 07:53:40.140
That's such a powerful strategy.

07:53:40.140 --> 07:53:41.900
It fits your micro perfectly.

07:53:41.900 --> 07:53:43.060
Why don't you just try it?

07:53:43.060 --> 07:53:43.900
Like, who cares?

07:53:43.900 --> 07:53:45.540
Forget booming and just like playing a late game.

07:53:45.540 --> 07:53:47.020
Just Turc Fast Dimp and Rush.

07:53:48.200 --> 07:53:49.040
Well, I don't know.

07:53:49.040 --> 07:53:51.180
I just, I kind of came into it with an idea

07:53:51.180 --> 07:53:54.580
that the attacks on Arena wouldn't be as good

07:53:54.580 --> 07:53:56.820
as just chilling for the most part.

07:53:56.820 --> 07:53:58.780
So first I was playing basically with grubbies,

07:53:58.780 --> 07:54:00.580
playing like scouts and relics.

07:54:00.860 --> 07:54:01.060
Yeah.

07:54:01.060 --> 07:54:04.580
And then I played a bunch of times and I, uh, going up against other people,

07:54:04.580 --> 07:54:06.580
it felt like pure boom was better than that.

07:54:07.060 --> 07:54:11.860
I mean, I, I still never got that good at it, but from my PV, that was probably

07:54:11.860 --> 07:54:12.940
the best way to go about it.

07:54:13.220 --> 07:54:13.540
Yeah.

07:54:13.620 --> 07:54:18.020
I, uh, there's a bunch of strategies that I, I would like to try if I had some more

07:54:18.020 --> 07:54:19.620
time, I think I would have prepared those.

07:54:19.940 --> 07:54:21.780
I did have a bill for the second arena.

07:54:21.780 --> 07:54:27.380
Cause, uh, I was talking to it with T90 before and we were both like, okay,

07:54:27.380 --> 07:54:31.540
Arena so desperate that if it goes wrong again, just do this in the final game

07:54:32.020 --> 07:54:38.140
Can you tell me what it is? Can you delete that? It was the it was it was the lag at the ram samurai or the

07:54:39.540 --> 07:54:45.060
Yeah, I think the one is the one you hide in your base. I think that one is very solid

07:54:45.060 --> 07:54:49.100
Yeah, like hiding your base Japanese. Yeah, I could have been good Ramurai. Let's say

07:54:49.500 --> 07:54:51.500
Yeah, it would be nice if you pull it out

07:54:51.900 --> 07:54:57.220
Hey, I see some T90 slander in the chat, but I just want to say I had one

07:54:57.380 --> 07:55:04.180
One coaching session with T90, literally one, and that pretty much may be the best Arabian player in the tournament, one session, so...

07:55:04.180 --> 07:55:05.180
That's pretty good.

07:55:05.180 --> 07:55:07.180
Respect to T90's name, guys.

07:55:07.180 --> 07:55:14.180
He taught me the perfect stuff, too, by the way, the X-Mode mango stuff that is very comfortable for me.

07:55:14.180 --> 07:55:20.180
In comparison, I had a hundred coaching sessions with Grubby, and he's not even half the Arabian player as you, so...

07:55:20.180 --> 07:55:23.180
Hey, you shouldn't do something right there, T90.

07:55:23.180 --> 07:55:24.180
Yeah.

07:55:24.180 --> 07:55:25.180
Yeah, that's good, so that's good.

07:55:25.180 --> 07:55:38.680
Obviously, it's mostly a speed thing, I think, speed and micro, because yeah, if someone has a good counter to me, to X-Bow Mango stuff, I don't know what it would be, but I haven't found it yet, but if they find it, then I'd probably struggle, so.

07:55:38.680 --> 07:55:48.180
I do have one last question here before we let you go. I want to talk about the thermaling of villagers to the center. It was the main thing that you told me before the ladder race, Hera.

07:55:48.180 --> 07:55:52.220
I love the game, but I can't stand my villagers went to the center. Can you just like

07:55:52.820 --> 07:55:57.780
Is anyway a fix in that ever is that just like a permanent part of age one price to you for you?

07:55:58.660 --> 07:56:00.220
actually

07:56:00.220 --> 07:56:05.460
You one of your mods me. Oh, yeah, I think he was helping me with a fix. He sent me like a a

07:56:06.380 --> 07:56:11.140
Script or something that would like ignore one click or something that I don't remember exactly what it was

07:56:11.140 --> 07:56:15.420
But I was just like like I mentioned for I was completely stressed out of my mind

07:56:15.420 --> 07:56:17.420
So I didn't want to change anything, you know

07:56:17.420 --> 07:56:22.660
That's that's maybe that would work. It would make my experience in a we to like 30% better

07:56:22.820 --> 07:56:29.580
Cuz like it's so annoying like especially in the in the long games like what's it called the fortress?

07:56:29.900 --> 07:56:34.260
Clicking 40 villages back on top of doing everything. It's such a mess

07:56:35.300 --> 07:56:39.660
Horrible. Yeah, it's a disaster. It happened literally every game except the last game

07:56:39.660 --> 07:56:44.860
I wanted to be but like every other game. I think we had like a thermal villager noble doom. We're just

07:56:44.860 --> 07:56:46.860
headed to the middle of the map.

07:56:46.860 --> 07:56:49.860
This game was just better. I tried to play slower actually, and it worked.

07:56:49.860 --> 07:56:51.860
And the last game, yeah.

07:56:51.860 --> 07:56:55.860
But maybe through your actual game plan though, so it's like, it worked.

07:56:55.860 --> 07:56:58.860
You had the last game, I rallied 7 X-Bows instead, so that's...

07:56:58.860 --> 07:57:02.860
I'm not sure if it was a good idea for me to work on it.

07:57:02.860 --> 07:57:06.860
Alright, and then last question, like second last question.

07:57:06.860 --> 07:57:08.860
We had a walk of 3 Invitational.

07:57:08.860 --> 07:57:12.860
We had an A with 2 Invitational, and I already promised an A with 2 Invitational next year.

07:57:12.860 --> 07:57:16.380
Shout out to the subs the sub go again. Oh, you got like a

07:57:17.740 --> 07:57:20.460
Starcraft that's you bro. Any stock of tournaments coming up?

07:57:21.820 --> 07:57:23.900
Oof, I mean I just finished one

07:57:24.540 --> 07:57:26.540
That's like Seattle and stuff

07:57:26.540 --> 07:57:31.700
Like what about one of like Hera and like my big grubby used to get like hair. I ate free art, you know spiffing Brits

07:57:32.460 --> 07:57:37.460
There we have almost it. I'm pretty sick. We've got to just talk about that. I think you're a guy

07:57:38.140 --> 07:57:42.300
Sounds pretty good. Sounds pretty good. I'll think about it. I'll think about it. I don't need a vacation first though

07:57:42.300 --> 07:57:46.340
Oh my god. Yeah, you've worked hard. You've earned it if your term at this event

07:57:46.340 --> 07:57:48.720
Oh, by the way, thank you for crunching and playing this event

07:57:48.720 --> 07:57:54.520
But I was gonna say yeah, and there's anyone pulling the starcraft term off. It's you you got the YouTube used to back it up

07:57:54.520 --> 07:57:56.520
That's all I'm saying. Yeah

07:57:56.520 --> 07:58:01.320
Yeah, the only thing is that I don't have the twitch for you. Yeah, that's kind of what it's those the only thing

07:58:01.320 --> 07:58:04.000
That's lacking a little bit now. You'll get those look at me, bro

07:58:04.000 --> 07:58:07.620
I'm a 15,000 bro. I haven't hit these numbers ever you'll get to be you'll get the

07:58:08.100 --> 07:58:10.100
Yeah, put in the work. Yeah

07:58:10.100 --> 07:58:14.100
Yeah, no, it's fantastic, but I love that so many viewers came out to watch.

07:58:14.100 --> 07:58:20.100
I know it is like the hosting event and you might be worried that your viewership is just normal or whatever,

07:58:20.100 --> 07:58:24.100
but this is probably like X5 roughly, if you normally have.

07:58:24.100 --> 07:58:27.100
Yeah, possibly more just because of how consistent it's been,

07:58:27.100 --> 07:58:31.100
but I expected just to be honest with the chat, I wanted 10,000 on Twitch.

07:58:31.100 --> 07:58:34.100
That would be a record of my channel. I broke that within like three hours.

07:58:34.100 --> 07:58:38.100
I was like, holy shit, I think we broke it down like 17,000 on Twitch only.

07:58:38.100 --> 07:58:41.700
have the YouTube just a flash that is well like seven six seven actually six

07:58:41.700 --> 07:58:46.100
six seven hundred wait six seven six nine there's a legendary refresh look at that shit

07:58:46.100 --> 07:58:53.380
six seven six nine oh my that's legendary bro that's sick actually yeah that's like

07:58:53.380 --> 07:58:57.980
these are good numbers yeah shout to the viewers shout to the viewers there that's a

07:58:57.980 --> 07:59:01.180
legendary pull but yeah no it's been great it's been awesome and yeah your

07:59:01.180 --> 07:59:04.020
thermal thanks for being here man any last words for the chat once again

07:59:04.020 --> 07:59:06.220
Congrats in the fourth place. It's a solid result.

07:59:07.660 --> 07:59:11.940
Yeah, no, I just, I've really enjoyed interacting with the AO2 community.

07:59:11.980 --> 07:59:17.340
There's been so many back-seaters, mostly good ones, some rotten ones,

07:59:17.340 --> 07:59:18.540
but that's to be expected.

07:59:19.340 --> 07:59:21.340
Thank you so much for watching my stream.

07:59:21.340 --> 07:59:25.060
I didn't get to do too much, unfortunately, but I'll probably stream some in the future,

07:59:25.100 --> 07:59:29.420
actually, might do like a little road to 2K thing or something.

07:59:29.420 --> 07:59:30.380
I think that'd be cool as well.

07:59:30.380 --> 07:59:31.740
It'd be hype as hell, yeah.

07:59:31.740 --> 07:59:34.740
Yeah, no, just yeah, thank you all so much. Thank you for the invite

07:59:36.340 --> 07:59:40.380
Hey, your tournament did sadly remind me of why I quit playing tournaments, but that's

07:59:41.500 --> 07:59:45.220
It's not your fault. Yeah. Okay. Actually, I had a sick idea by the way

07:59:45.220 --> 07:59:50.140
Tell me or it could be a terrible idea, but I just I thought of it randomly in between one of my games

07:59:50.820 --> 07:59:57.140
You could involve the captains next time and have them just be a part of the ladder race. Ah

07:59:57.140 --> 08:00:05.140
Ah, interesting, interesting, because you guys are too good for the main event, but like you guys can push the ladder race and prize pool there.

08:00:05.140 --> 08:00:06.140
Okay, I like that.

08:00:06.140 --> 08:00:09.140
Just a random idea. It could be terrible, it could be cool, but I just thought of it.

08:00:09.140 --> 08:00:13.140
It depends. Let me tell you some of my preliminary ideas for the next one.

08:00:13.140 --> 08:00:16.140
So obviously, King's Gauntlet No. 2 confirmed for 2027, god willing, of course.

08:00:16.140 --> 08:00:22.140
But the main plan is I need to get more prize pool from Microsoft so that I can pay out people an actual livable wage.

08:00:22.140 --> 08:00:24.380
because right now I'm like, H.O.X. got $400.

08:00:24.380 --> 08:00:26.260
It's like 1,000 hours of ranked grind,

08:00:26.260 --> 08:00:27.820
which is like terrible, right?

08:00:27.820 --> 08:00:30.580
I want to pay livable wages out to these players,

08:00:30.580 --> 08:00:31.700
but I couldn't do that right now

08:00:31.700 --> 08:00:33.060
because I had 10,000 on workloads.

08:00:33.060 --> 08:00:36.660
So hopefully next time with like some better investment

08:00:36.660 --> 08:00:38.700
from Microsoft, like we've proven the concept works,

08:00:38.700 --> 08:00:40.420
we've proven the people have showed up to watch

08:00:40.420 --> 08:00:41.460
and everything's good.

08:00:41.460 --> 08:00:43.740
A lot of new viewers, a lot of new eyes on ABA too.

08:00:43.740 --> 08:00:45.780
I can have some actual good price pool.

08:00:45.780 --> 08:00:47.820
So it's worth your time to actually put in the work

08:00:47.820 --> 08:00:49.620
and grind and with that,

08:00:49.620 --> 08:00:52.020
I think that would be a fantastic idea actually.

08:00:52.140 --> 08:00:55.980
Have you thought about crowdfunding actually?

08:00:55.980 --> 08:01:01.260
I did some crowdfunding for this one, but it was not for the price, it was for the production,

08:01:01.260 --> 08:01:08.260
like the website, we raised 3500 for the website and the coaches, website, editors, admin coaches.

08:01:08.260 --> 08:01:09.260
Nice, nice.

08:01:09.260 --> 08:01:13.020
Yeah, huge up to the chat, we actually filled a donation goal, my donation goal was 2500,

08:01:13.020 --> 08:01:19.100
we filled 3500, which is fantastic, so I'll be paying that out after the event as well.

08:01:19.100 --> 08:01:20.100
Awesome.

08:01:20.100 --> 08:01:24.960
Okay, I think I don't want to delay the players. I could keep yapping, but I don't want to delay the next match

08:01:24.960 --> 08:01:28.580
It's actually I need a 10 minute break if you want to yap I can bring Lewis in here

08:01:28.580 --> 08:01:33.060
You guys can yap away. I actually didn't want to delay you because like I just want but if you want to yap

08:01:33.060 --> 08:01:36.260
I need like 10 minute break anyways, so it's not over your break

08:01:36.420 --> 08:01:41.140
All right, you have my break Lewis can come in as well. Enjoy it and yeah, you don't take it away, bro

08:01:41.940 --> 08:01:43.940
Yeah, hello Lewis. I

08:01:45.460 --> 08:01:47.400
See he's muted, but he's here. Trust me guys

08:01:47.400 --> 08:01:48.720
I'm talking to the ghost.

08:01:48.720 --> 08:01:50.000
Yo.

08:01:50.000 --> 08:01:51.440
Yo, what's up, man?

08:01:51.440 --> 08:01:52.480
How you doing?

08:01:52.480 --> 08:01:54.120
Nice to meet you, Luz.

08:01:54.120 --> 08:01:55.960
Nice to meet you, Thermal.

08:01:55.960 --> 08:01:58.080
Well played.

08:01:58.080 --> 08:02:00.080
Thank you.

08:02:00.080 --> 08:02:01.360
I wouldn't necessarily agree.

08:02:05.200 --> 08:02:08.080
What did you think the problem was for you in this set?

08:02:11.600 --> 08:02:14.880
Well, first of all, I'm just really bad on the close maps.

08:02:14.880 --> 08:02:21.780
So I don't know if you saw the previous one against Captain Lance, but I owned some

08:02:21.780 --> 08:02:23.540
Arabia and then I lost all the other ones.

08:02:25.260 --> 08:02:29.180
And it's kind of, it kind of feels like crap to have the pressure on me because I

08:02:29.180 --> 08:02:33.380
need to win Arabia, like 1000% and then pray that I win another one, you know?

08:02:33.740 --> 08:02:34.740
So it was tough.

08:02:35.580 --> 08:02:37.340
I got really close in game number as well.

08:02:38.460 --> 08:02:41.140
I was going to say, I'm surprised you didn't think about the Saracens because

08:02:41.140 --> 08:02:44.580
the Saracens would fit your game plan like perfectly for what you'd like to do.

08:02:44.880 --> 08:03:08.880
Yeah, T90 recommended it to me, but honestly, I was just too stressed out to try new things, like, I was like, I, yeah, I've picked Portuguese and Malian's every single series in the exact same order besides the ones I think and I was like, okay, these guys know what I'm going to do, but it works 90% of the time anyway, so I don't really want to change anything.

08:03:08.880 --> 08:03:10.760
Yeah, that kind of makes sense.

08:03:10.760 --> 08:03:13.440
And also I watched the Prohemian game.

08:03:13.440 --> 08:03:14.720
That was kind of rough.

08:03:14.720 --> 08:03:16.420
Like I was watching it and I was saying to myself,

08:03:16.420 --> 08:03:18.560
if you just mess up like five who needs,

08:03:18.560 --> 08:03:22.280
six who needs, and then push out onto the map,

08:03:22.280 --> 08:03:23.400
I think that's kind of the win coin.

08:03:23.400 --> 08:03:26.280
Cause you kind of want to like mess up one big death ball.

08:03:26.280 --> 08:03:28.920
Cause I think the way you're playing it to kind of just

08:03:28.920 --> 08:03:30.480
throwing a little bit, then a little bit more,

08:03:30.480 --> 08:03:31.640
then a little bit more.

08:03:31.640 --> 08:03:32.880
You kind of want to just go like, you know,

08:03:32.880 --> 08:03:34.920
six of them together, six, seven, eight,

08:03:34.920 --> 08:03:36.800
and then just push out all together.

08:03:36.800 --> 08:03:38.800
Okay, yeah, I only

08:03:39.920 --> 08:03:44.820
Like T90 helped me a little bit, but he only gave me theory like we didn't have time for an actual session

08:03:44.820 --> 08:03:48.280
So I just kind of piece it together from what he told me in chat, you know

08:03:49.000 --> 08:03:52.840
Yeah, yeah, I was initially playing like this on fortress

08:03:53.240 --> 08:03:57.560
Which works a bit better because you're kind of maxed out by the time things happen anyway

08:03:59.080 --> 08:04:01.480
From the read maybe I should have been more patient. I don't know

08:04:02.160 --> 08:04:04.440
Yeah, for just interesting. I think the

08:04:04.440 --> 08:04:07.240
It was unfortunate, it's never luck.

08:04:07.240 --> 08:04:08.920
I was going to open up the website.

08:04:08.920 --> 08:04:13.200
I watched a king snipe, I casted it with her, it was amazing.

08:04:13.200 --> 08:04:15.040
I can't remember who it was.

08:04:15.040 --> 08:04:16.920
There are a couple of hers.

08:04:16.920 --> 08:04:21.040
Oh, there was like one that was like amazingly put together.

08:04:21.040 --> 08:04:23.720
Wait, I'm lucky.

08:04:23.720 --> 08:04:25.400
Can't find it.

08:04:25.400 --> 08:04:27.680
Oh, and by the way, Leery's joint, Leery hello.

08:04:30.200 --> 08:04:31.760
Oh, he's muted.

08:04:31.760 --> 08:04:32.880
Hello?

08:04:32.880 --> 08:04:34.400
Yo.

08:04:34.400 --> 08:04:35.200
Oh, what's up?

08:04:36.500 --> 08:04:37.000
Hey, Leery.

08:04:37.000 --> 08:04:37.500
What's up?

08:04:37.800 --> 08:04:40.000
Not so hair, but you're my actual goat, by the way.

08:04:42.400 --> 08:04:42.700
It's good.

08:04:42.700 --> 08:04:44.700
We're in private here, you know, not like that.

08:04:45.300 --> 08:04:47.500
Pretty good people can hear us all good.

08:04:47.700 --> 08:04:49.100
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

08:04:49.100 --> 08:04:52.800
Do you not realize Leery had 20 attempts to beat Harrod and Astia?

08:04:52.900 --> 08:04:55.000
You realize and you failed every single attempt.

08:04:55.500 --> 08:04:58.900
Louis is just mad because he was the one who ended her streak

08:04:58.900 --> 08:05:01.600
and then he gifted it right next to me in the next round.

08:05:04.400 --> 08:05:10.160
Yeah, you're you've been a bit unlucky against her sometimes I've even before I was playing I watched a little bit

08:05:10.160 --> 08:05:14.800
I'm always interested in who's winning the RTS tournaments. Yeah, like yeah

08:05:16.240 --> 08:05:19.280
I just want to say for example for a week for for like three years

08:05:19.280 --> 08:05:22.280
I never watched a single game, but I still knew who won the tournament

08:05:22.880 --> 08:05:25.200
No, I see I see I see always

08:05:26.640 --> 08:05:28.640
It's out there

08:05:29.320 --> 08:05:34.320
Interesting, you know, yeah, you have a very similar playstyle to me or like I see myself

08:05:34.400 --> 08:05:38.820
when I was starting the game, playing like you, you know?

08:05:38.820 --> 08:05:39.820
Yeah, yeah.

08:05:39.820 --> 08:05:44.780
I think the much micro-oriented expo-manganade just brute-force your way.

08:05:44.780 --> 08:05:51.860
It's funny, because you said you didn't have most practice, so you just practiced more

08:05:51.860 --> 08:05:54.940
or less the expo-manganade playstyle.

08:05:54.940 --> 08:05:56.660
People know it's coming, but they can't stop it.

08:05:56.660 --> 08:05:58.060
That's pretty much my way as well.

08:05:58.060 --> 08:05:59.980
Yeah, that's what I noticed.

08:05:59.980 --> 08:06:03.820
I feel like if you don't play against like Herod, the people just die every time I watch

08:06:03.820 --> 08:06:10.620
basically yeah that's how i used to be in stark as well back when i was still good

08:06:10.620 --> 08:06:15.100
just kind of nice nice nice i like playing like the the bing bang boom playstyle you know like

08:06:15.100 --> 08:06:20.060
you harass a little bit here you harass a little there macro perfect behind it and you kill them

08:06:20.060 --> 08:06:24.540
with a time yeah it's smooth it's smooth it's very smooth it's a very good style of playing

08:06:24.540 --> 08:06:30.300
especially because the game is kind of at least at the top level in most tournaments very defensive

08:06:30.300 --> 08:06:37.300
oriented. So, you know, the player who usually goes aggressive has to do lots of

08:06:37.300 --> 08:06:42.140
damage. Yeah, so most players will just end up playing a bit more defensive

08:06:42.140 --> 08:06:45.300
because there's more advantages to it, at least at the top level. So it's always

08:06:45.300 --> 08:06:49.100
very entertaining to see that kind of play styles. Yeah, I see some action, you

08:06:49.100 --> 08:06:53.100
always see some fights like back and forth, you know. That's why usually the

08:06:53.100 --> 08:06:56.820
sets between Hera and me cannot deliver because it's like aggressive against

08:06:56.820 --> 08:07:05.380
defense. Yeah, that's sick. And in Starcraft 2 you have something similar. I don't know if you know the names Clemens Harrell, but they're like the best there in the best

08:07:05.380 --> 08:07:15.540
arc. Yeah, and it's like sterile just kind of like hair. Well, maybe even he's very robotic, like he does the same stuff and he's just too good with it. And then Clemens is like

08:07:15.540 --> 08:07:24.780
attacking him 24 seven, you know, it's just non stuff. Yeah, that's good. I mean, it would have been cool to coach you actually, especially at that

08:07:24.780 --> 08:07:30.780
I wasn't really around for too much, up until this week and a little bit before, but...

08:07:30.780 --> 08:07:32.780
It was actually the first thing I wrote in the coaching chat, I think.

08:07:32.780 --> 08:07:34.780
If you go back, you might see the first thing I said was,

08:07:34.780 --> 08:07:37.780
I bet Larry could make me 2K in like a day or something like that.

08:07:37.780 --> 08:07:40.780
Yeah, because I didn't have much time myself,

08:07:40.780 --> 08:07:43.780
because I was running my own event at the same time, so it's kind of like...

08:07:43.780 --> 08:07:44.780
I see, I see, I see.

08:07:44.780 --> 08:07:47.780
Yeah, I wasn't really too active in the chat the first couple of weeks, to be honest,

08:07:47.780 --> 08:07:49.780
for the first couple of days.

08:07:49.780 --> 08:07:51.780
You know what I figured?

08:07:51.780 --> 08:07:59.220
I figured I'm so bad that like even for every five games I improve so much that

08:07:59.220 --> 08:08:04.900
getting coaching might not even be that good early on like I should at least

08:08:04.900 --> 08:08:08.420
know how to you know move move the keyboard and in the mouse.

08:08:08.420 --> 08:08:10.420
Get some hands first.

08:08:10.420 --> 08:08:14.460
Yeah yeah right because it's I mean it kind of worked because I do think my

08:08:14.460 --> 08:08:18.140
hands work better than the other competitors but my brain didn't so

08:08:18.140 --> 08:08:21.420
that's just kind of lacking I mean you know you can still have lots of long

08:08:21.420 --> 08:08:24.940
much and still not have hands like look at Lewis for example.

08:08:25.300 --> 08:08:26.940
He does see the fans of this day.

08:08:26.940 --> 08:08:27.580
I have no.

08:08:28.380 --> 08:08:32.020
I honestly, I think groovy probably better micro.

08:08:32.020 --> 08:08:33.100
I'm not even trolling.

08:08:33.100 --> 08:08:34.260
Like it's disaster.

08:08:34.260 --> 08:08:35.300
You actually have no micro.

08:08:36.060 --> 08:08:36.700
No micro.

08:08:36.700 --> 08:08:37.660
I'm actually like 50.

08:08:37.660 --> 08:08:42.180
So micro is not that bad, but he some of the moves he makes are so bad

08:08:42.180 --> 08:08:42.980
that they're actually good.

08:08:42.980 --> 08:08:43.620
That's the issue.

08:08:45.260 --> 08:08:47.620
It goes like circled, you know, like in the time.

08:08:47.620 --> 08:08:47.900
Yeah.

08:08:48.820 --> 08:08:50.300
Is that how you know my game plan is?

08:08:50.300 --> 08:08:55.740
Yeah, my game plan every game that's just, yeah, just honestly greet as much as possible,

08:08:55.740 --> 08:08:59.380
drop the DCs as fast as possible and pick up the relics.

08:08:59.380 --> 08:09:01.940
And hopefully in 45 minutes you'll win.

08:09:01.940 --> 08:09:03.180
That's kind of my playstyle.

08:09:03.180 --> 08:09:09.620
Yeah, I think there's probably a bit more to it than that I have to guess.

08:09:09.620 --> 08:09:15.420
You know, just saying, as top players, it's really easy to underestimate yourself, by

08:09:15.420 --> 08:09:20.260
But you can think my micro so garbage is 1700 I could probably do okay

08:09:20.260 --> 08:09:26.280
But even your worst micro is gonna be like, you know, you'll dunk in a tiny sea hundred or whatever like it's just

08:09:27.780 --> 08:09:34.380
Yeah, I mean the game is mostly about knowledge and experience as so many units so many strats so many maps so many nuances

08:09:34.380 --> 08:09:36.380
That's kind of the beauty of it, but it takes lots of time

08:09:36.660 --> 08:09:42.340
But yeah, it's a pleasure to learn it once you see the puzzles coming together. It's a great

08:09:42.340 --> 08:09:47.540
Also, I think the most important thing is your mindset as well, because if you're playing

08:09:47.540 --> 08:09:52.340
bad and you start telling yourself you're playing bad, everything just goes bad, right?

08:09:52.340 --> 08:09:55.300
But that's kind of what I realized versus Leery.

08:09:55.300 --> 08:09:59.140
Whenever I'm playing versus him, just getting out of my throat constantly, I'm just calling

08:09:59.140 --> 08:10:00.900
myself horrible the entire time.

08:10:00.900 --> 08:10:03.700
It's just so hard to come back from that time.

08:10:03.700 --> 08:10:05.460
Yeah, it's annoying as hell, yeah.

08:10:05.460 --> 08:10:10.820
It's hard to play against really, really good players, like in this case, top two players

08:10:10.820 --> 08:10:16.100
in the world because you start getting out microbe and then it already starts feeling hopeless

08:10:16.100 --> 08:10:20.820
somehow, you know, because you respect them too much. But if you get would get out micro by a

08:10:20.820 --> 08:10:26.420
shit player, it's just kind of just kind of funny, you know, you just move on. Yeah, it's like,

08:10:26.420 --> 08:10:31.300
happens, what can you do next? Yeah, yeah. It's like, well, your opponent, the goats, who knows?

08:10:32.580 --> 08:10:34.260
Well, suddenly there are 17 goats.

08:10:34.260 --> 08:10:40.260
You guys watch my games just now by the way, like close to it.

08:10:40.260 --> 08:10:41.260
Yes, I did.

08:10:41.260 --> 08:10:47.260
I was curious about the last game because so that map was kind of flat.

08:10:47.260 --> 08:10:50.260
At least I didn't feel like I have a nice hill to attack from.

08:10:50.260 --> 08:10:53.260
In that case, would you not do it?

08:10:53.260 --> 08:10:54.260
Or would you just like it?

08:10:54.260 --> 08:10:57.260
Let's say the best hill is at the back of his base or something.

08:10:57.260 --> 08:10:58.260
Would you still go there?

08:11:00.260 --> 08:11:01.260
You can do.

08:11:01.260 --> 08:11:03.900
You know what the worst mistake you made that entire game was?

08:11:03.900 --> 08:11:07.060
That I think, like, you're the back, you don't wall to the edge of the map.

08:11:07.460 --> 08:11:10.940
So his arches kept wrapping around your base and like idling your resources

08:11:10.940 --> 08:11:11.740
whilst you're pushing.

08:11:12.260 --> 08:11:14.420
And then he's resting your rest whilst you're pushing.

08:11:14.940 --> 08:11:18.300
It's like you can't pay attention in both spots and your push is weaker.

08:11:18.300 --> 08:11:22.620
So I actually think not walling to the edge of the map was like the huge reason

08:11:23.340 --> 08:11:25.140
why you lost that one from my point of view.

08:11:25.820 --> 08:11:26.220
Okay.

08:11:28.100 --> 08:11:29.700
But yeah, also like remembered again.

08:11:29.700 --> 08:11:35.700
Yeah, the question when the tower was with the crossbow mango is also quite rough. Yeah, it's that one.

08:11:35.700 --> 08:11:37.700
Yeah, okay.

08:11:37.700 --> 08:11:44.700
I mean, it was pretty not my prettiest game, like I made some beauty errors on the micro and stuff as well.

08:11:44.700 --> 08:11:48.700
One time I tried to click my mango on his, but I didn't even know what it did.

08:11:48.700 --> 08:11:57.700
It started walking down the ramp instead of shooting like, and I write like eight archers into his army, like it was pretty bad, honestly, but strategically, I'm curious.

08:11:57.700 --> 08:12:02.340
That happens to me every single time, I'm on like super zoomed out, I'm always mis-clicking

08:12:02.340 --> 08:12:06.340
my, instead of like right-clicking my opponent's mango, I mis-click and I walk towards them,

08:12:06.340 --> 08:12:07.340
it's horrible.

08:12:07.340 --> 08:12:08.340
Yeah.

08:12:08.340 --> 08:12:09.340
Yeah.

08:12:09.340 --> 08:12:13.420
The mango dance is crazy, like you one-shot each other and you feel like one shot can

08:12:13.420 --> 08:12:14.420
make the difference.

08:12:14.420 --> 08:12:15.420
It's pretty intense.

08:12:15.420 --> 08:12:19.460
Yeah, it's snowballs very quick as well, because if it's like two or three manganos against

08:12:19.460 --> 08:12:27.220
two, three manganos, if you win one trade suddenly you're up three against one and then

08:12:27.220 --> 08:12:29.060
you can predict the multiple areas, right?

08:12:29.060 --> 08:12:32.060
So you can't dodge, it's impossible in some ways.

08:12:32.060 --> 08:12:33.260
Then it's like a snowball.

08:12:33.260 --> 08:12:34.380
And they're obviously impossible

08:12:34.380 --> 08:12:35.740
and they deal tons of damage.

08:12:35.740 --> 08:12:37.140
So...

08:12:37.140 --> 08:12:38.460
If you're three against one,

08:12:38.460 --> 08:12:40.860
would you like a one for one trade?

08:12:40.860 --> 08:12:42.300
Probably, I guess.

08:12:42.300 --> 08:12:43.580
Yeah, for sure.

08:12:43.580 --> 08:12:46.620
Yeah, if you have three, the enemy has one.

08:12:46.620 --> 08:12:49.420
Usually what you can do is,

08:12:49.420 --> 08:12:51.140
in order for both of you to shoot,

08:12:51.140 --> 08:12:52.620
you have to be in range, right?

08:12:52.620 --> 08:12:55.180
So if you have to free,

08:12:55.180 --> 08:13:04.180
You move with all 2 or 3 depending on how many units you can move to the side, so you can dodge the shot and then you can predict on 3 different areas.

08:13:04.180 --> 08:13:09.180
And obviously, Mangelo is very slow, so you're guaranteed to kill his Mangelo. Well, he's not guaranteed to kill yours.

08:13:09.180 --> 08:13:12.180
Very specific, but...

08:13:12.180 --> 08:13:13.180
Noted.

08:13:13.180 --> 08:13:17.180
You guys already gave me more coaching than Hera, by the way, just saying.

08:13:17.180 --> 08:13:20.180
Hera will be the one defending with the Mangelo.

08:13:20.180 --> 08:13:23.180
I'm not attacking. Lewis is well defending.

08:13:23.180 --> 08:13:26.420
I was a fan, but the other thing was is the hill, right?

08:13:26.420 --> 08:13:29.460
It's like, if you land your shot and he lands his shot also,

08:13:29.460 --> 08:13:31.420
but you have the hill, his die is yours as well.

08:13:31.420 --> 08:13:34.940
So having the hills, whenever you're pushing is also another,

08:13:36.020 --> 08:13:37.820
but I think you should have definitely moved around

08:13:37.820 --> 08:13:40.140
to the left side instead of pushing straight to the tower.

08:13:40.140 --> 08:13:42.460
Cause it's like, if you push through the tower,

08:13:42.460 --> 08:13:45.420
you can garrison it, repair it, the tower is shooting you

08:13:45.420 --> 08:13:47.500
and your mangy else is totally dying and then he shoots.

08:13:47.500 --> 08:13:49.180
And also another thing is the vision, right?

08:13:49.180 --> 08:13:52.820
He sees everything and you're like pushing it for darkness.

08:13:52.820 --> 08:13:55.780
So it's like really easy to defend from this position.

08:13:55.780 --> 08:13:58.340
So I think wrapping around to the left side

08:13:58.340 --> 08:14:00.700
probably was the best play, but.

08:14:00.700 --> 08:14:02.500
Yeah, that area was so crap.

08:14:02.500 --> 08:14:03.820
I attacked into it and I was like,

08:14:03.820 --> 08:14:05.460
I didn't see any manganese or whatever.

08:14:05.460 --> 08:14:07.340
I was like, I'm kind of on a timer.

08:14:07.340 --> 08:14:09.180
I'll just go, but there was just nothing to do.

08:14:09.180 --> 08:14:12.260
I could shoot farms, but that was it, you know, or walls.

08:14:12.260 --> 08:14:16.940
So honestly, I think the way you thought about

08:14:16.940 --> 08:14:19.540
like you're on a timer is sometimes the wrong way to think

08:14:19.540 --> 08:14:22.500
because like in like 1800 level,

08:14:22.500 --> 08:14:25.780
You're never really on a timer, like the timer is like extended, right?

08:14:25.780 --> 08:14:27.660
You have way more time to damage than you think.

08:14:28.300 --> 08:14:30.660
Because play is not playing perfect.

08:14:30.660 --> 08:14:34.060
Like if I'm playing versus Herra Leery, okay, sure.

08:14:34.060 --> 08:14:40.300
I have to do damage instantly, but like, I think, I don't, I think you underestimated

08:14:40.300 --> 08:14:41.340
your position a little bit.

08:14:41.380 --> 08:14:42.780
You weren't in a bad spot.

08:14:43.300 --> 08:14:43.660
Hmm.

08:14:43.660 --> 08:14:44.060
Okay.

08:14:44.820 --> 08:14:46.220
Yeah, I thought I was completely dead.

08:14:46.260 --> 08:14:49.740
I was kind of just trying to get in there as fast as I could.

08:14:49.740 --> 08:14:55.260
Yeah, I think like moving to the left, you know about the target fire with the manganelles, right?

08:14:55.260 --> 08:14:57.500
How you can take two buildings out at the same time.

08:14:57.500 --> 08:15:00.060
Oh, like attacking ground in between?

08:15:00.060 --> 08:15:01.060
Yeah, yeah.

08:15:01.060 --> 08:15:04.620
So if you just like move to the left a little bit, attack ground between two buildings.

08:15:04.620 --> 08:15:07.500
That's also not good to do it.

08:15:07.500 --> 08:15:09.500
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

08:15:09.500 --> 08:15:15.900
Yeah, I mean, I know I made a lot of mistakes that game, but it's still fun to think about

08:15:15.900 --> 08:15:16.900
it.

08:15:16.900 --> 08:15:19.420
It was just like small situational mistakes.

08:15:19.420 --> 08:15:23.500
Like you weren't playing bad, it was just like one or two tiny things, like waltzing to the map

08:15:24.060 --> 08:15:27.740
and move to the left of your manganelles and the game is just completely different.

08:15:28.780 --> 08:15:29.500
Yeah, yeah.

08:15:32.140 --> 08:15:36.460
Also, where did Herigo by the way? He kind of just dragged me in and just peaced out.

08:15:36.460 --> 08:15:38.220
Yeah, he took a break, he's probably eating.

08:15:38.780 --> 08:15:41.660
Actually no, small column to battle with Grubby, let's be honest.

08:15:44.700 --> 08:15:48.300
It's kind of funny because I'm rooting for Captain Lance and Pig, you know, because

08:15:48.300 --> 08:15:50.660
because Liri's been coaching Groovy.

08:15:50.660 --> 08:15:53.260
Yeah, yeah, Liri's been coaching Groovy.

08:15:53.260 --> 08:15:55.860
And everyone Liri coached is like balled out, right?

08:15:55.860 --> 08:15:58.980
So I'm kind of rooting against Liri.

08:15:58.980 --> 08:15:59.820
Okay.

08:16:01.740 --> 08:16:03.820
I was rooting for you as well.

08:16:03.820 --> 08:16:05.280
Thank you, thank you.

08:16:05.280 --> 08:16:06.700
So what was your first game you played?

08:16:06.700 --> 08:16:08.380
Oh, the Fortress game.

08:16:08.380 --> 08:16:09.980
That went on for such a long time.

08:16:09.980 --> 08:16:11.020
You know?

08:16:11.020 --> 08:16:12.140
Yeah, I should have won that one, I think,

08:16:12.140 --> 08:16:13.900
but I just got lost somewhere.

08:16:15.460 --> 08:16:17.460
Should have made Pikes, actually, that game.

08:16:17.460 --> 08:16:21.140
No, no, no, like, finance is going to be your, like, ultimate composition.

08:16:21.140 --> 08:16:24.420
But I think you're going to be pushing a little bit faster because, because

08:16:24.420 --> 08:16:26.780
way versus Vietnamese is a very unique matchup.

08:16:27.180 --> 08:16:31.540
Whenever you're playing like versus way as the Vietnamese way want to be on the

08:16:31.540 --> 08:16:34.460
Jambay rider, plus some type of cab, right?

08:16:34.460 --> 08:16:37.940
Like Hossa, the Knights of the unique units.

08:16:38.420 --> 08:16:41.580
So I think you should have maybe gone like three TC, a little bit faster imp.

08:16:42.500 --> 08:16:44.140
And then just like push them really quickly.

08:16:45.140 --> 08:16:46.380
And then just play finance is going.

08:16:46.380 --> 08:16:49.540
But I think like the full boom where like he has like, you know,

08:16:49.540 --> 08:16:53.100
carved the relics kind of just like went into a style of it.

08:16:55.260 --> 08:16:58.100
Yeah, I was I'm actually wondering because I feel like on my

08:16:58.100 --> 08:17:02.420
ELO, Cav is kind of OP in the late game stuff, because like the

08:17:02.420 --> 08:17:05.420
yeah, they're so mobile. And it's like, I feel like it's so hard

08:17:05.420 --> 08:17:07.660
for me to be everywhere. And the Cav just kind of runs around.

08:17:08.140 --> 08:17:11.540
So like the Cav late game always kind of wins when the players

08:17:11.540 --> 08:17:13.180
are still not that good. I don't know if it's the same at high

08:17:13.180 --> 08:17:15.140
level, but that's what it felt like for me.

08:17:15.140 --> 08:17:20.820
Yeah, that was like really easy to play right you can just like send them in and just forget about them

08:17:21.260 --> 08:17:27.340
Yeah, if you throw in 30 hussars all 30 hussars die. It's fine. There's food right you have like 90 bills on food

08:17:27.580 --> 08:17:30.700
But I think like also you could wall the back your base up a little bit

08:17:30.940 --> 08:17:35.460
Like if you fight in one spot your arm is better if you're fighting multiple spots his arm is better

08:17:35.460 --> 08:17:39.500
So I think like cutting off your base walling the sides is

08:17:40.340 --> 08:17:42.340
Kind of the way to go

08:17:42.340 --> 08:17:45.740
I actually struggle against the mobile trebs.

08:17:45.740 --> 08:17:46.740
Yeah.

08:17:46.740 --> 08:17:51.140
I struggle a bit against the mobile trebs, even though Chatl always says they suck, but

08:17:51.140 --> 08:17:53.140
they were kind of annoying.

08:17:53.140 --> 08:17:54.140
They're OP.

08:17:54.140 --> 08:17:55.140
They're pretty good.

08:17:55.140 --> 08:18:00.620
Because it's like they could kill my trebs and my castles and they can get out when I

08:18:00.620 --> 08:18:02.620
go in with my slow ass Lancers.

08:18:02.620 --> 08:18:04.620
It was tough, actually.

08:18:04.620 --> 08:18:07.980
It's a bomb-bomb pattern you don't need chemistry for with more range.

08:18:07.980 --> 08:18:13.980
If you're pushing up a hill, then it's really hard to kill a castle, right?

08:18:13.980 --> 08:18:18.220
Because they do low damage to buildings, but on a flat map, and if you're fighting against

08:18:18.220 --> 08:18:24.700
like flat hill castles and other siege, it's so, the good versus like onages as well, scorpions,

08:18:24.700 --> 08:18:25.700
it seems to be.

08:18:25.700 --> 08:18:31.380
So you're trying to get in for you or bomber cannons, your own long range units where you

08:18:31.380 --> 08:18:35.740
could fight back and move around as well, because with the old traps they just get sniped, right?

08:18:35.740 --> 08:18:36.740
You can't move them.

08:18:36.740 --> 08:18:41.380
and shoot like you can with those traction traps. But if you made your own recovery cannons you could

08:18:41.380 --> 08:18:47.700
move around five or six like in the arena game and then you can slide them as well.

08:18:49.220 --> 08:18:58.660
Yeah okay okay. Also just shooting your opponent's units with the bombard cannons as well like

08:18:58.660 --> 08:19:02.020
instead of just like having them idle. If they're always shooting something they don't always have

08:19:02.020 --> 08:19:06.020
to be shooting a building or siege they can just be shooting you know hand cannon ears right?

08:19:06.740 --> 08:19:14.900
Yeah, that's what I was trying in Arena, but Arena just it felt doomed so fast to me because you'd like I

08:19:15.220 --> 08:19:20.300
Literally didn't even have gold left. I didn't have any map position for gold was outside there

08:19:20.300 --> 08:19:26.800
You know which he castled and then took eventually for himself. Yeah, it's messed up. I also yet five relics

08:19:26.800 --> 08:19:33.240
So eventually if you didn't close out the game in like 40 minutes, you were out of gold and bohemians without gold is just cooked

08:19:33.240 --> 08:19:40.100
Yeah, and that's another case of like not pushing fast enough rights like a woman not not pushing fast enough

08:19:40.100 --> 08:19:44.480
But I'm not taking the map right like if he takes the like half goes like five relics

08:19:44.480 --> 08:19:48.360
He invested on those like half, which means your boom in theory should be better

08:19:48.600 --> 08:19:54.140
But then again, it's five brilliant relics, right? So he gets like double. What is the brilliant bonus?

08:19:54.140 --> 08:19:58.640
It's like food and gold, right? So yeah, each one of you picks up. It's like two three bills. It's

08:19:59.520 --> 08:20:01.520
It's super hard to play against

08:20:01.520 --> 08:20:02.520
Yeah.

08:20:02.520 --> 08:20:04.960
All games are like really close and...

08:20:04.960 --> 08:20:09.040
Yeah, you know, it's really hard to play if you're like, if you don't know that much

08:20:09.040 --> 08:20:13.280
about the game, because a lot of games they just feel hopeless.

08:20:13.280 --> 08:20:18.840
You know, because like on Arena, I try to move out of my base and use three castles

08:20:18.840 --> 08:20:23.880
there, and like, I don't know, I just mess up and get like six of those Omega Bomber

08:20:23.880 --> 08:20:25.520
cannons and I move out, you know?

08:20:25.520 --> 08:20:26.520
I'm just like...

08:20:26.520 --> 08:20:27.520
Yeah.

08:20:27.520 --> 08:20:28.520
I'm just cooked, you know?

08:20:28.520 --> 08:20:29.520
Like I'm stuck in my base.

08:20:29.520 --> 08:20:30.520
Yeah.

08:20:30.520 --> 08:20:36.160
like stuff that's the refilling if you lose it's like everything is hopeless

08:20:36.160 --> 08:20:40.020
it's the worst game ever if you win if you feel like you're Alexander the

08:20:40.020 --> 08:20:44.800
great you're like the core there's no in-between doesn't matter how you win or

08:20:44.800 --> 08:20:52.360
how you lose honestly that's I've learned that's just RTS like yeah

08:20:52.360 --> 08:20:55.360
I didn't even go there honestly, but I played.

08:20:55.360 --> 08:20:58.360
Maybe I only care about RTS games, that's why.

08:20:58.360 --> 08:21:00.360
Maybe.

08:21:00.360 --> 08:21:05.360
Or I guess the games you play competitively, you play to win and to improve, I guess that's the way.

08:21:05.360 --> 08:21:07.360
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

08:21:07.360 --> 08:21:09.360
I played some Warcraft 3 as well.

08:21:09.360 --> 08:21:10.360
Yeah, welcome back.

08:21:10.360 --> 08:21:12.360
Thank you, good to see you guys.

08:21:12.360 --> 08:21:14.360
How was your small call?

08:21:14.360 --> 08:21:16.360
It was kind of a medium call this time actually.

08:21:16.360 --> 08:21:18.360
I was not on call with Grubby.

08:21:18.360 --> 08:21:21.360
I was not on call with Grubby, I promise.

08:21:21.360 --> 08:21:23.280
I want to eat. The other thing I like to do.

08:21:24.920 --> 08:21:28.280
The second thing, which one would you say is your favorite?

08:21:28.480 --> 08:21:29.160
You have to choose.

08:21:30.320 --> 08:21:32.440
Eating while watching Grubby. Number one thing.

08:21:33.000 --> 08:21:33.360
So good.

08:21:33.360 --> 08:21:35.480
Yeah, let's check out my coaching Grubby.

08:21:36.320 --> 08:21:37.280
Let's go, Captain Lance.

08:21:39.440 --> 08:21:42.720
Speaking of coaching here, I just got like a hundred times more coaching from these

08:21:42.720 --> 08:21:44.560
two guys and I got from you in the last three weeks.

08:21:46.640 --> 08:21:47.680
You tell me what's up with that?

08:21:47.680 --> 08:21:56.120
Fun fact, Hera did not make one comment to me about my gameplay in this entire tournament,

08:21:56.120 --> 08:21:57.120
not one.

08:21:57.120 --> 08:21:59.720
He didn't tell me the objective, you know.

08:21:59.720 --> 08:22:01.920
Your far placement sucks or...

08:22:01.920 --> 08:22:04.920
This is not one comment, not one.

08:22:04.920 --> 08:22:07.360
I actually think you might be right, which is depressing.

08:22:07.360 --> 08:22:08.360
That's so sad.

08:22:08.360 --> 08:22:12.240
I'm sure you didn't make one comment to me.

08:22:12.240 --> 08:22:14.240
You farewell just got ghosted by Hera.

08:22:14.240 --> 08:22:19.000
Yeah, I think I wasn't ghosted. I was pocket watching his YouTube like I don't know what she makes per video

08:22:19.720 --> 08:22:25.000
I know like, you know what sims he likes to play but not you know help it and pick the right says

08:22:26.000 --> 08:22:29.160
Ah, you're watching his downfall. Yeah, literally

08:22:31.080 --> 08:22:34.280
All right, we guys we gotta get going by the way because I think like a thousand years to go eat

08:22:34.280 --> 08:22:35.920
So you throw more we're dropping you out, bro

08:22:35.920 --> 08:22:38.640
Thank you for being here and congrats on the fourth once again

08:22:38.640 --> 08:22:42.640
You can expose you one more time before I go I said a lot say whatever you want. You can say what you want

08:22:42.640 --> 08:22:50.920
I accept the invite to this tournament, right? In my head, this is only Arabia. That's my

08:22:50.920 --> 08:22:56.080
bad, right? And then Hera announces that it's Arena as well. And I'm like, bro, get

08:22:56.080 --> 08:23:01.800
it out, but I understand it, right? And then this freaking guy puts Arena Plus on the first

08:23:01.800 --> 08:23:08.560
map and then lets them lose their pick Arena, just despite me, zero coaching. Every time

08:23:08.560 --> 08:23:14.240
I asked for it, he was eating or something, it's just crazy. Anyway, fantastic tournament,

08:23:14.240 --> 08:23:18.360
nice to meet you Liri and Luis. Might hit you guys at one time for coaching or something

08:23:18.360 --> 08:23:21.240
if you guys could be down for another meal.

08:23:21.240 --> 08:23:23.560
We could do some in the next couple days, weeks.

08:23:23.560 --> 08:23:26.760
Not me of course, I'm busy, don't message me, message done, not me.

08:23:26.760 --> 08:23:29.160
Don't message Hera, he will just ghost you indeed.

08:23:29.160 --> 08:23:34.960
All right guys, enjoy the rest of the show, thanks for having me, have a good one man.

08:23:34.960 --> 08:23:50.960
Alright guys, W, you thermal in the chat, legendary guy, I actually love him so much, he's since the humor is on point, but guys we gotta go in here because Grubby is a busy man and he's about to play Captain Lance, so yo, you thermal is out, Leary, Lewis, Double L's, what's going on guys?

08:23:50.960 --> 08:23:53.960
Good to have you guys joining me in the cast.

08:23:53.960 --> 08:23:54.960
Hello.

08:23:54.960 --> 08:23:55.960
Good to be here.

08:23:55.960 --> 08:23:56.960
Hello.

08:23:56.960 --> 08:23:57.960
Hello.

08:23:57.960 --> 08:24:02.960
Alright, let me get, let me get them started.

08:24:02.960 --> 08:24:06.220
14 at Grubby and Captain Lanz.

08:24:06.220 --> 08:24:07.200
All right, so, I mean.

08:24:07.200 --> 08:24:08.640
Grubby can make the hero run.

08:24:08.640 --> 08:24:11.560
He can play four sets in one day

08:24:11.560 --> 08:24:13.680
and win them all and win the whole tournament.

08:24:13.680 --> 08:24:14.520
That's crazy, right?

08:24:14.520 --> 08:24:15.800
Like Pig played two sets,

08:24:15.800 --> 08:24:17.440
but had a massive break in between.

08:24:17.440 --> 08:24:19.440
Grubby played four back-to-back, basically.

08:24:19.440 --> 08:24:21.360
He had a little bit of a break after the first one,

08:24:21.360 --> 08:24:23.240
but after that, three back-to-back.

08:24:23.240 --> 08:24:24.560
It's a crazy run of the loser bracket,

08:24:24.560 --> 08:24:27.560
but that's kind of what makes it so exciting in my opinion.

08:24:27.560 --> 08:24:30.000
Didn't Pig wake up at five AM, though,

08:24:30.000 --> 08:24:31.560
for one of his sets?

08:24:31.560 --> 08:24:32.400
I think he did.

08:24:32.400 --> 08:24:37.680
By the way, I think they've started, so we don't have to hop right in, but feel free to talk over me a little bit while I get the cam set up and everything.

08:24:37.680 --> 08:24:39.240
We're gonna hop into the first game right now.

08:24:39.240 --> 08:24:41.160
Oh, they did start.

08:24:41.160 --> 08:24:43.600
Hop it right in. Cam Lance is...

08:24:43.600 --> 08:24:52.880
Funnily enough, since Tara was eating, I had to give Gravis some advice against Lance.

08:24:52.880 --> 08:24:55.480
Have you watched all of Lance's games?

08:24:55.480 --> 08:24:58.040
Every single one. On tournament, every single one.

08:24:58.040 --> 08:25:01.760
How many games has he played before?

08:25:01.760 --> 08:25:03.160
He knows more threats than me.

08:25:03.160 --> 08:25:04.520
Oh, no, he's played a lot of games.

08:25:04.520 --> 08:25:05.360
He's played a lot of games.

08:25:05.360 --> 08:25:07.160
I'll fix the cameras, but he used to play

08:25:07.160 --> 08:25:09.680
like thousands of team games, but very casually.

08:25:09.680 --> 08:25:12.600
So he's actually still like, he's a worse player

08:25:12.600 --> 08:25:14.920
than Grubby in terms of micro and macro overall.

08:25:14.920 --> 08:25:16.840
Don't get me wrong, he's a great micro player,

08:25:16.840 --> 08:25:18.600
but he's got that game knowledge.

08:25:18.600 --> 08:25:20.440
It's his biggest strength.

08:25:20.440 --> 08:25:22.560
Let me just introduce the players real quick guys.

08:25:22.560 --> 08:25:25.000
This is the loser bracket final.

08:25:25.000 --> 08:25:26.560
Winner of this goes to the grand final.

08:25:26.560 --> 08:25:27.960
The loser gets third place.

08:25:27.960 --> 08:25:28.920
So there's a lot on the line here.

08:25:28.920 --> 08:25:31.040
Grubby playing as the Vietnamese in blue

08:25:31.040 --> 08:25:33.120
and CaptainLands playing in red as the Cumans.

08:25:33.120 --> 08:25:34.280
Go ahead and break down this matchup.

08:25:34.280 --> 08:25:35.440
I finally have two pros with me.

08:25:35.440 --> 08:25:36.960
So Lewis, Liri, break down the matchup

08:25:36.960 --> 08:25:40.160
or just fix the cameras real quick.

08:25:40.160 --> 08:25:42.160
Go on, Liri.

08:25:42.160 --> 08:25:43.800
Ladies first.

08:25:43.800 --> 08:25:44.760
I'll go.

08:25:44.760 --> 08:25:46.680
Well, we have Vietnamese and Cumans.

08:25:46.680 --> 08:25:49.240
Cumans are not really that great on fortress,

08:25:49.240 --> 08:25:51.320
as you don't pull ahead by that many vills,

08:25:51.320 --> 08:25:54.200
as the uptime is pretty fast.

08:25:54.200 --> 08:25:56.160
And I much prefer the Vietnamese here.

08:25:56.160 --> 08:25:58.280
What do you think, Liri?

08:25:58.280 --> 08:25:58.880
Yeah.

08:25:58.880 --> 08:26:02.440
Listen, I have played Cubans maybe 10 times in my life before.

08:26:03.080 --> 08:26:04.680
On Arena probably not a single time.

08:26:05.000 --> 08:26:07.040
I played against them though, so I know how to beat them.

08:26:07.800 --> 08:26:09.240
But yeah, I prefer Vietnamese as well.

08:26:09.280 --> 08:26:11.640
I think Cubans is like such a cheeser-sif.

08:26:12.400 --> 08:26:15.200
But I feel like Grubby knows what to expect.

08:26:15.240 --> 08:26:17.000
I kind of prepared him a little for this matchup.

08:26:17.680 --> 08:26:18.560
He knows what to do.

08:26:19.200 --> 08:26:20.280
Is there a reason for Grubby?

08:26:20.320 --> 08:26:22.320
So the thing is about this matchup as well,

08:26:22.360 --> 08:26:24.960
is that Captain Lance has played it twice before.

08:26:25.840 --> 08:26:27.720
On Fortress, he's won both times.

08:26:27.720 --> 08:26:31.620
Sincsin also took the Cumans on this map, and he's also one with it.

08:26:31.620 --> 08:26:34.960
Oh no, I think Catalan's played it three times, actually, with Cumans.

08:26:34.960 --> 08:26:40.520
He's won all three, and the strategy, the main strategy that he's employed, he's played it twice, though.

08:26:40.520 --> 08:26:44.020
He's played it twice, and he's played it another strategy another time.

08:26:44.020 --> 08:26:48.520
It's the fast imp after the 2TC boom into the Kip trucks with the forward castle.

08:26:48.520 --> 08:26:52.920
It's like, you get a little bit of a 70-bill economy, then you go for the forward castle, fast imp.

08:26:52.920 --> 08:26:56.320
So a little cheesy, to your point, Liri, it is kind of a cheesy sieve.

08:26:56.320 --> 08:27:01.320
And to try to get you with that fast imp timing, it's very hard to stop if you don't know what's coming, but if you know what's coming,

08:27:01.320 --> 08:27:05.320
sometimes you can just match them with a 3 TC boom and then just prepare a solid defense.

08:27:05.320 --> 08:27:08.320
So the Vietnamese here, I feel like is a little bit more solid.

08:27:08.320 --> 08:27:16.320
However, Captain Lance also showed that he can just go for a mega boom, not go for the fast imp, and just go into something like Paladin and late game with the humans as well.

08:27:16.320 --> 08:27:20.320
So it seems pretty flexible for him, but he's had a lot of success with it so far.

08:27:20.320 --> 08:27:32.320
Also, another thing is, actually look at next to Grubby's base, next to his castle, there's a huge hill where Captain Lance can make a castle on, so if he does take the map, that could be a really good spot to push from.

08:27:32.320 --> 08:27:37.320
Yeah, even from flat ground it could be dangerous, but if you have a hill it just makes it all the deadlier.

08:27:37.320 --> 08:27:49.320
Grubby knows that Lance has played Cummins before, he has also seen both of the strats, the 2TC fast aim forward push and the 2TC into 5TC boom.

08:27:49.320 --> 08:27:57.320
I think either way, you just play 3TC into Boom as Vietnamese, the only thing you can do, and then just adapt, depending on what you see.

08:27:57.320 --> 08:28:02.320
And so you said you did a little coaching for Grubby, a little bit before the set, right?

08:28:02.320 --> 08:28:05.320
What was the adaptation you told him to counter the Fasten?

08:28:05.320 --> 08:28:11.320
Because if Flans just booms this game, Grubby can adapt and just play a late game, but what about the Fasten?

08:28:11.320 --> 08:28:15.320
What was the game plan there against that? What can we look forward to Grubby doing here?

08:28:15.320 --> 08:28:22.520
I actually did that like I think four or five days ago. No three days ago or something when Grubby told me

08:28:22.760 --> 08:28:29.080
What his bracket looks like and he still has no clue how to beat Lance that was like before he was still an upper bracket

08:28:29.120 --> 08:28:33.760
Yeah, so he just asked me how to beat human to TC fast in because it was it looked very strong

08:28:34.280 --> 08:28:36.280
so I just made him practice

08:28:37.640 --> 08:28:39.640
Free TC faster in

08:28:39.640 --> 08:28:52.640
In case he will go for the strat again, basically just match his economy up to AACP after Castle Age, making two TC's, so you're still catching up to the resources. Lance will have more than that.

08:28:52.640 --> 08:29:02.640
And then just skirmisher and push him back. That's the best way to put it, because there's not really much else you can do, and then eventually fire lance, skirmisher, you have an unbeatable comp.

08:29:02.640 --> 08:29:06.000
Yeah, like Vietnamese should have the better late game there, so that's that's what we're looking for chat

08:29:06.000 --> 08:29:10.640
Just don't get too stuck with like the 4TC stuck in cast late for too long

08:29:10.640 --> 08:29:12.560
You need to get your bombboards out fast enough

08:29:12.720 --> 08:29:17.360
You need to be able to push back those early trebs from the Cumans remember no gunpowder for the Cumans

08:29:17.360 --> 08:29:21.840
So no bombboards no hand cannon near and so a lot of times the Cumans kind of get stuck in the treb war

08:29:21.840 --> 08:29:24.240
If you just go skirmish or sometimes the Vietnamese M skirm

08:29:24.560 --> 08:29:27.680
A few bombards push it all back and then you're just playing a stronger late game

08:29:27.680 --> 08:29:29.760
Especially with the fire lancer the addition of the fire lancer

08:29:29.760 --> 08:29:33.080
I feel like makes this matchup very very comfortable for the Vietnamese now

08:29:33.080 --> 08:29:36.840
We did see Vietnamese lose out on this map in the last set

08:29:36.840 --> 08:29:39.100
Grubby versus you thermal you thermal played a great Vietnamese game

08:29:39.100 --> 08:29:43.560
finances skirm kind of lost in a grindy late game. I want to get your thoughts

08:29:44.720 --> 08:29:49.040
Lewis I guess for the relics obviously theory can probably give us some good thoughts here, but Lewis

08:29:49.680 --> 08:29:52.800
Grubbies went for the relics consistently and if they've shared him well

08:29:52.800 --> 08:29:57.240
But what do you make of just giving up the relics in favor of a bigger boom now? What's your take on that?

08:29:59.760 --> 08:30:05.760
I think the relic is always better, right? Because if you add a TC, that's 375 res, and you always have to produce builds from it.

08:30:05.760 --> 08:30:09.760
If you make a monastery, every relic you pick up is like, what, two builds?

08:30:09.760 --> 08:30:17.760
And that two builds are alive, working on gold, you know, for the entire game. So I think going for the relic is always the correct approach.

08:30:17.760 --> 08:30:22.760
I also want to say that Leery just leaked all of Groovy's strats, it picks watching for the finals, so...

08:30:22.760 --> 08:30:23.760
Oh, true.

08:30:23.760 --> 08:30:24.760
Thank you, Leery.

08:30:24.760 --> 08:30:28.760
I think it's not playing Q-Mans on non-fortress, like what are we talking about here?

08:30:28.760 --> 08:30:30.760
I have to go to school maybe?

08:30:30.760 --> 08:30:32.760
Sure, my friends.

08:30:32.760 --> 08:30:38.760
It was an interesting angle to make Leery be like the villain in the whole story, but the gambit has failed unfortunately.

08:30:38.760 --> 08:30:43.760
This is why Leery, I avoided coaching the players except Grubby.

08:30:43.760 --> 08:30:49.760
I just didn't want to get into any situation where I was the dean of the villain from my hard work in coaching.

08:30:49.760 --> 08:30:51.760
I have to be objective.

08:30:51.760 --> 08:30:56.760
Yeah, that's why I just support Grubby and no one else. I don't want to sped up my knowledge too thin.

08:30:56.760 --> 08:31:01.480
with. Grubby is now up to Castle Age. He's going to go for a 3 TC boom. I had a question

08:31:01.480 --> 08:31:05.960
in the chat earlier. How risky is it for the Kings to be out on the map? Not risky at all.

08:31:05.960 --> 08:31:09.480
Kings on the map is completely fine in Dark Age. I mean somewhat risky if you run into

08:31:09.480 --> 08:31:14.000
the castle, but barring, spiffing, Brit, we haven't seen that from anyone in this tournament.

08:31:14.000 --> 08:31:17.300
But now the Kings are back, you know, safe behind the castle. But remember guys, right

08:31:17.300 --> 08:31:21.280
aside from the game 1, you lose your King, you lose the game. Here we go Grubby. Keeping

08:31:21.280 --> 08:31:26.240
his King safe, 3 TC boom to match the 2 TC from Catlin Lance. Catlin Lance still in feudal

08:31:26.240 --> 08:31:29.680
is those who can't add more than the 2TC.

08:31:29.680 --> 08:31:34.680
Isn't there also a place here where Grobius starts making his unique unit, you know, push

08:31:34.680 --> 08:31:37.400
Captain Lance back and I like the forward position?

08:31:37.400 --> 08:31:38.400
I was thinking that.

08:31:38.400 --> 08:31:40.800
What do you think about that approach as well?

08:31:40.800 --> 08:31:44.480
You just boomed 2TC, but instead of just rushing the end, if you rat the archers, don't let

08:31:44.480 --> 08:31:46.520
the forward bills come across the map.

08:31:46.520 --> 08:31:53.080
Yeah, it can work, but the way Lance has been playing, he's been playing very, very smart,

08:31:53.080 --> 08:31:57.080
So naturally he will just play with Keptrex and then sneak the castle around somewhere.

08:31:57.080 --> 08:31:58.080
Yeah.

08:31:58.080 --> 08:32:03.080
I think in that one arena game he just sneaked the castle on, who was it?

08:32:03.080 --> 08:32:04.080
I think it was...

08:32:04.080 --> 08:32:06.080
You think it was Thermal maybe then?

08:32:06.080 --> 08:32:07.080
Yeah, I thought it was Thermal.

08:32:07.080 --> 08:32:09.080
And he just sneaked around.

08:32:09.080 --> 08:32:10.080
Your Thermal has no idea.

08:32:10.080 --> 08:32:17.080
He might do it as well because Keptrex is obviously a mobile unit so he can play around with vision a bit more than Rafa archers.

08:32:17.080 --> 08:32:18.080
Yeah.

08:32:18.080 --> 08:32:22.080
It's a bit risky here because if you make units and you commit to them you also have to upgrade them.

08:32:22.080 --> 08:32:28.080
You have to make like 5, 6, 7 of them and if you then don't stop the castle then you're just behind.

08:32:28.080 --> 08:32:32.080
Yeah, absolutely. I do like what we're seeing here from Captain Lance, he always does this.

08:32:32.080 --> 08:32:38.080
He goes like market, houses, whatever building he's making, he makes them outside and tries to secure one side of the map at least.

08:32:38.080 --> 08:32:43.080
I think it's a really good way to play, especially to Grubby who likes to take the relic, so you just cut off one relic here,

08:32:43.080 --> 08:32:47.080
cut off a big push in the map, not many wood lines back here, but just great farmland,

08:32:47.080 --> 08:32:50.080
which could really help if he decides to go for that bigger boom approach.

08:32:50.080 --> 08:32:55.360
Castle is coming in now for Captain Lance, a nice villager lead, a nice economic advantage in terms of rest collected as well.

08:32:55.360 --> 08:32:59.200
However, we're going to have this boomerang effect where Captain Lance is going to be ahead early,

08:32:59.200 --> 08:33:03.760
but then Grubby's going to slowly catch up and actually overcake him with a 3TC boom.

08:33:03.760 --> 08:33:07.520
So we're going to see the Monastery, as you mentioned, Lewis from Grubby.

08:33:07.520 --> 08:33:12.800
He always does this 3TC, then the Monastery. He deems it better than the 4TC, quite clearly.

08:33:14.240 --> 08:33:19.360
Yeah, also the thing is Captain Lance, by the time he gets to Castle, he just scouts his cell alive and he gets kip checks.

08:33:19.360 --> 08:33:20.840
He can also deny the relics, right?

08:33:20.840 --> 08:33:23.120
And also he's walling one of them in for late.

08:33:23.120 --> 08:33:25.440
And there is two on the right side, which are fairly close to him.

08:33:26.240 --> 08:33:29.360
And also it kind of shows the experience from Captain Lance, right?

08:33:29.400 --> 08:33:33.080
Like these guys are similar ranking, but like Captain Lance is so much more

08:33:33.080 --> 08:33:37.280
experienced at this level, even though Groovy is, you know, technically the

08:33:37.280 --> 08:33:38.800
sharper player, some would say.

08:33:39.120 --> 08:33:39.320
Yeah.

08:33:39.960 --> 08:33:40.840
It's an interesting matchup.

08:33:41.680 --> 08:33:43.160
Yeah, I completely agree with that.

08:33:43.160 --> 08:33:47.720
I think like Captain Lance, uh, I feel like we don't want to lean too much into

08:33:47.720 --> 08:33:52.320
He's saying he's only known for his knowledge also showed a really good micro macro make that clear to the chat

08:33:52.320 --> 08:33:53.960
It's also a great player, but grubby

08:33:53.960 --> 08:33:59.880
She's slightly stronger on paper in terms of you know the raw mechanics great play though from Lance not just the wall

08:33:59.880 --> 08:34:04.760
But also walling fast grubby try to be a little greedy go for that corner. Well, it's all walled off

08:34:05.240 --> 08:34:07.240
You can't get that really that's crazy

08:34:07.840 --> 08:34:10.800
That's very smash from grubby go for the furthest one first

08:34:11.400 --> 08:34:13.400
Here we go

08:34:13.400 --> 08:34:15.400
Oh, the conversion!

08:34:15.400 --> 08:34:18.400
He switched the conversion to the villager, that was crazy!

08:34:18.400 --> 08:34:22.400
Well played to Grubby there, and he's got two scouts, Kamala's got nothing!

08:34:22.400 --> 08:34:26.400
And barring some Kipchaks, Kamala has no military on the field.

08:34:26.400 --> 08:34:28.400
Grubby has the defs on call.

08:34:28.400 --> 08:34:31.400
Yeah, that was a quick conversion, eh? That was a quick conversion.

08:34:31.400 --> 08:34:35.400
He did switch it from the villager though, so it was not like that lucky, it was actually kind of well played from him.

08:34:35.400 --> 08:34:37.400
Oh, that's why I missed it.

08:34:37.400 --> 08:34:42.400
That was me, I just missed the scout to move the monk forward and just cancel the conversion.

08:34:42.400 --> 08:34:44.400
And the monk dies.

08:34:45.040 --> 08:34:49.600
Monk dies, then your scout gets chased by the Cuban faster scout and it all goes downhill, but

08:34:50.080 --> 08:34:56.000
Fair enough King being moved to the back here. Grabby wants to misposition. He doesn't want to misposition the King forward

08:34:56.000 --> 08:34:59.600
So send him to a safe power to back and he's gonna make some rat and archers here

08:34:59.600 --> 08:35:04.320
So he kind of fancies a little bit of map control. This is probably just to help, you know, play for those relics

08:35:04.320 --> 08:35:09.840
I think this is definitely a good idea. He's done this in previous games as well. But here we go catlots already up to him

08:35:09.840 --> 08:35:12.840
He's going for the fast imp, beautiful.

08:35:14.840 --> 08:35:16.840
I feel like probably we'll stop this.

08:35:17.840 --> 08:35:19.840
I have a good feeling we'll stop this.

08:35:19.840 --> 08:35:21.840
That's exactly what we prepared against.

08:35:21.840 --> 08:35:23.840
Well, to build at least.

08:35:23.840 --> 08:35:25.840
We'll click up the next two, three minutes.

08:35:25.840 --> 08:35:29.840
Even if Lance gets the forward castle on that hill, which is a nasty hill.

08:35:31.840 --> 08:35:36.840
He might lose the castle, but then he will just fall back to skirmisher, open skirmish and bomber cannons

08:35:36.840 --> 08:35:40.840
and then eventually just get to Fire Lance or Perico and then just push him back.

08:35:40.840 --> 08:35:43.840
Yeah, and we talked about opening some Wrathen Archers here for the Relics.

08:35:43.840 --> 08:35:46.840
Wrathen Archers are really nice anti-archer archers, so take a look.

08:35:46.840 --> 08:35:48.840
This guy's taking like no damage to the Kipchaks.

08:35:48.840 --> 08:35:50.840
Of course, the Kipchaks have the mobility.

08:35:50.840 --> 08:35:52.840
You can always run away and they shoot multiple arrows.

08:35:52.840 --> 08:35:56.840
They're doing okay damage, but overall the Wrathen Archer will win the head-on-head fights.

08:35:56.840 --> 08:35:58.840
And take a look at the Ville Count now.

08:35:58.840 --> 08:36:00.840
Grubby has surpassed the Ville Count from Captain Lance,

08:36:00.840 --> 08:36:05.840
because that two TC kind of fallen off and the three TC is starting to pull ahead.

08:36:05.840 --> 08:36:09.180
Yeah, look at Lance Stone, Stone Count, Lebanon Stone.

08:36:09.180 --> 08:36:10.680
He's looking at the castle.

08:36:10.680 --> 08:36:12.840
He's doing the same strategy he's done a couple times before.

08:36:12.840 --> 08:36:17.020
He's sending the villagers forward, and this seems like the perfect time to ask the chat,

08:36:17.020 --> 08:36:20.580
type the name of the person you're cheering for, Grubby or Lance.

08:36:20.580 --> 08:36:22.980
Type the name of the chat right now, YouTube and Twitch.

08:36:22.980 --> 08:36:24.580
Let's get some energy going behind these guys.

08:36:24.580 --> 08:36:26.080
It's the loser bracket final.

08:36:26.080 --> 08:36:27.480
It's a really, really important match.

08:36:27.480 --> 08:36:29.480
Winner of this will face Pig in the grand final.

08:36:29.480 --> 08:36:32.080
And look at this, Grubby will scout the villagers immediately.

08:36:32.080 --> 08:36:33.680
This is huge for the blue player.

08:36:33.680 --> 08:36:36.680
Unless you just pass his by, oh my god, oh my god.

08:36:36.680 --> 08:36:38.680
He didn't see that, that's crazy.

08:36:38.680 --> 08:36:39.680
Wow.

08:36:39.680 --> 08:36:41.680
I think Lance is heading straight for the hill as well.

08:36:41.680 --> 08:36:43.680
He's going straight for the hill?

08:36:43.680 --> 08:36:45.680
That's very smart.

08:36:45.680 --> 08:36:47.680
Grubby missing that is ridiculous, by the way.

08:36:47.680 --> 08:36:48.680
That's so unfortunate.

08:36:48.680 --> 08:36:50.680
Grubby's playing, he's got no idea.

08:36:50.680 --> 08:36:52.680
If he knew he'd just go and clear this all up,

08:36:52.680 --> 08:36:54.680
his unit is actually stronger right now,

08:36:54.680 --> 08:36:56.680
so Captain Lance, a bit of fortune there for him.

08:36:56.680 --> 08:36:58.680
He's in a castle up the hill, beautiful hill.

08:36:58.680 --> 08:37:00.680
We talked about it from the start of the map.

08:37:00.680 --> 08:37:01.680
And now what's the play?

08:37:01.680 --> 08:37:02.680
Grubby's up the hill, though.

08:37:02.680 --> 08:37:04.680
Up to him. Looking decent.

08:37:05.260 --> 08:37:09.880
Yeah, and even this is like worst case scenario as well, right? Like best case scenario, he explores it,

08:37:09.880 --> 08:37:14.340
he sees it, and then he doesn't even let him get the castle, and he has to drop the defensive here at home.

08:37:14.340 --> 08:37:18.840
Yeah, that's true. So worst case scenario, the guys got a massive hill, we missed the castle,

08:37:18.840 --> 08:37:22.960
we invested some ratanarches, you talked about this theory, bit of a double-edged sword, these eight ratanarchs

08:37:22.960 --> 08:37:24.960
could have delayed him for a couple minutes.

08:37:25.480 --> 08:37:28.440
Let's see what Grobby can do here against this catalanth bush.

08:37:29.480 --> 08:37:32.160
Grobby's been so active with his units as well, scouting around.

08:37:32.680 --> 08:37:36.440
Captain Lance is based looking for this, you know, forward castle, but he just missed it

08:37:36.440 --> 08:37:40.000
Okay, if you look at all his unit position, he literally sees everything in a straight line

08:37:40.000 --> 08:37:42.360
Yeah, I don't think he knows about the castle as well

08:37:42.400 --> 08:37:47.240
He doesn't know anything. He's gonna be kicking himself or confused if you just sees it like already there

08:37:47.240 --> 08:37:49.240
He'd like when did he ever walk out?

08:37:49.840 --> 08:37:53.760
Keep an eye on the camera of grubby. Maybe he'll make a face of like what the hell's going on

08:37:53.760 --> 08:37:55.760
How did he get there but Captain Lance?

08:37:55.840 --> 08:37:58.800
You know a secret is as it may be a grubby. It's no secret

08:37:58.800 --> 08:38:02.240
It's got a castle and a few stables now one thing. I don't really like that

08:38:02.240 --> 08:38:05.640
I think he goes for like have wouldn't you agree that Cavaliers the better choice here dairy

08:38:06.780 --> 08:38:11.520
Yeah, especially because like have is more like a late game choice since it only cost food

08:38:12.120 --> 08:38:16.340
But right now he only has 15 of food. That's the issue. He can't really afford any upgrades

08:38:16.880 --> 08:38:20.900
Village reproduction and let alone the stable units with only 15 of food

08:38:21.160 --> 08:38:25.120
Yeah, that's true like very little farms so like going like have here feels a bit counterintuitive

08:38:25.120 --> 08:38:28.380
He didn't last set though and it worked out for him so he's probably not gonna switch it up

08:38:28.380 --> 08:38:33.460
We have a loom for grubby at least so no no, you know, no missing loom disasters

08:38:33.900 --> 08:38:40.140
40 seconds to end. I think it's the right call to not repair this castle because the hill is just too nasty there, honestly

08:38:42.700 --> 08:38:46.660
Can't buy some time I guess but as soon as he gets two traps, it's there's no point

08:38:46.660 --> 08:38:48.980
Yeah, you better make the castle somewhere else the second one

08:38:49.460 --> 08:38:52.540
Yeah, he's gonna go for the repairs though. Maybe just thinking about buying some time

08:38:52.540 --> 08:38:55.020
He you thermals a villager forward unfortunately

08:38:56.060 --> 08:38:58.060
Where's that guy?

08:38:58.300 --> 08:39:01.500
But also grubby can see the like half. He knows what's coming

08:39:02.980 --> 08:39:06.620
And he sees the way she lands hit that option true true

08:39:06.620 --> 08:39:09.260
That's a good point to hide the like have showed only the kip check

08:39:09.260 --> 08:39:13.900
Which you've been making in broad daylight hide the like have and surprise grubby now the cat's out of the bag

08:39:14.180 --> 08:39:16.180
Transition is wide open

08:39:16.180 --> 08:39:21.180
He doesn't have castles though.

08:39:21.180 --> 08:39:24.180
Yeah, that's the problem.

08:39:24.180 --> 08:39:25.180
Ratharanch is great.

08:39:25.180 --> 08:39:26.180
He's got one castle.

08:39:26.180 --> 08:39:27.180
He's about to lose it.

08:39:27.180 --> 08:39:28.180
He can maybe afford one more.

08:39:28.180 --> 08:39:30.680
But one castle of Ratharanch doesn't really excite me.

08:39:30.680 --> 08:39:32.680
I actually much prefer the imp skirm tech.

08:39:32.680 --> 08:39:34.680
I think this is fantastic from Grubby.

08:39:34.680 --> 08:39:36.180
It's what Liri and him talked about.

08:39:36.180 --> 08:39:37.180
Liri, that's the correct choice.

08:39:37.180 --> 08:39:39.180
If he stops you thermally villagers though,

08:39:39.180 --> 08:39:42.180
you can have a really good chance to push this back.

08:39:42.180 --> 08:39:43.180
We're getting vision.

08:39:43.180 --> 08:39:44.180
Don't worry.

08:39:44.180 --> 08:39:45.180
It's all part of the plan.

08:39:45.180 --> 08:39:48.620
It is vision. How is this girl not dying? It's crazy.

08:39:49.120 --> 08:39:50.640
Let me try to go.

08:39:50.940 --> 08:39:52.300
This is crazy.

08:39:56.480 --> 08:39:58.040
Light cap coming in.

08:39:58.040 --> 08:40:00.600
Plus 4 armor is coming through as well.

08:40:00.600 --> 08:40:03.600
Light cap goes straight through the gate here. Scrumers just have to kite back.

08:40:03.600 --> 08:40:06.800
A few Rattans will make short work of those light caps.

08:40:06.800 --> 08:40:09.080
So actually really nice to have those mixed in.

08:40:10.480 --> 08:40:11.600
Blitz is now in.

08:40:11.600 --> 08:40:17.600
That doesn't have to equal yet to properly produce Leicav non-stop and upgrade them to a star.

08:40:19.040 --> 08:40:21.760
Yeah, it's certainly not that Leicav's one on the right side.

08:40:22.960 --> 08:40:23.600
Yeah, certainly.

08:40:23.600 --> 08:40:25.440
Yeah, it's because it's slowly creeping with the houses.

08:40:26.000 --> 08:40:28.080
Yeah, this is similar to what Catmilan set up here.

08:40:28.080 --> 08:40:30.000
Look at that, so solid how this wall looks.

08:40:30.000 --> 08:40:31.840
But yeah, Grubby's doing the same down here.

08:40:31.840 --> 08:40:35.440
Very, very effective against the Leicav, potentially has star raids down the line.

08:40:35.440 --> 08:40:37.680
Grubby's trying to get a little greedy trying to snipe that Trebuchet,

08:40:37.680 --> 08:40:41.520
But I think better friend just work on getting some as you know some

08:40:42.080 --> 08:40:45.080
Firelands is on the field to counter the light cap. Yeah, it's way better for him

08:40:45.720 --> 08:40:48.600
Yeah, that's the next next step. You could have already gone for it

08:40:48.600 --> 08:40:52.800
I guess he didn't really check the like an upgrades yet. I was you would have known okay

08:40:52.800 --> 08:40:58.000
Lance is not committed to keep checks, but rather like yeah, we should come in and if I already make it

08:40:58.000 --> 08:41:02.480
Oh great defense from grubby though. Just garrisons all the DCs always clear up the kept tracks

08:41:02.480 --> 08:41:03.480
Oh, it's Disaster Plants!

08:41:03.480 --> 08:41:04.680
It's the Lantz Tricks as well.

08:41:04.680 --> 08:41:08.080
Oh my goodness, the Imskirm, Lantz, his AFK!

08:41:08.080 --> 08:41:10.880
He lost all the Kip Tricks, the Light Cavalry went down!

08:41:10.880 --> 08:41:14.380
It's all Grubby right now, this is disastrous for the red player!

08:41:14.380 --> 08:41:17.380
Wow, that was not what you want to see if you're a Lantz fan!

08:41:17.380 --> 08:41:21.680
Now the Trimps are going back, it doesn't have that hill though, to kind of defend it by time.

08:41:21.680 --> 08:41:24.780
But holy Grubby with a good defense there.

08:41:24.780 --> 08:41:27.580
And look at Grubby's production.

08:41:27.580 --> 08:41:28.380
What's in the queue?

08:41:28.380 --> 08:41:29.280
Free Fire Lances.

08:41:29.280 --> 08:41:30.880
Love it.

08:41:30.880 --> 08:41:39.180
Sturmhold, set up that backline, Fire Lancer frontline, we've seen how strong that combo is with the Thermal in the last set.

08:41:39.740 --> 08:41:45.840
It can fight pretty much any composition from the Cumans, and it's also quite cheap for the Vietnamese to field these units as well.

08:41:45.840 --> 08:41:50.140
Elite Fire Lancer, this is exactly what Grubby needs to do, beautiful preparation here.

08:41:50.340 --> 08:41:52.540
Shout out to Coach Liri of course, fantastic.

08:41:53.880 --> 08:41:59.980
Look at those Impscum's man, they even beat Leicaap, it's crazy what Vietnamese have to offer, such a...

08:42:00.880 --> 08:42:02.880
OPSIF at this point.

08:42:02.880 --> 08:42:05.880
Yeah, Fire Lancers kind of make them a little overpowered at times.

08:42:05.880 --> 08:42:07.880
The Impskrim is just such a powerful tool on its own.

08:42:07.880 --> 08:42:11.880
Income, the Light Cab, the Bombereds are kind of out there exposed.

08:42:11.880 --> 08:42:14.880
Lance? We're not going for the Bombereds?

08:42:15.880 --> 08:42:16.880
What's the whole cleanup?

08:42:16.880 --> 08:42:18.880
They want the cleanup.

08:42:18.880 --> 08:42:19.880
I don't know if you're going to find it though.

08:42:19.880 --> 08:42:21.880
This is so hard on humans, that's a fact.

08:42:21.880 --> 08:42:23.880
Yeah, now it's like borderline impossible.

08:42:23.880 --> 08:42:24.880
Very hard.

08:42:24.880 --> 08:42:26.880
Yes, the Hill is still.

08:42:26.880 --> 08:42:28.880
He still has the Hill.

08:42:28.880 --> 08:42:29.880
That Hill is nice.

08:42:29.880 --> 08:42:31.880
He does go for the ball but now

08:42:32.860 --> 08:42:37.280
Lewis if you were in the humans position here you talked about how hard it is to play from this position

08:42:37.380 --> 08:42:41.260
Would you just go for a king snipe or is there a little bit more gameplay to be had before that?

08:42:42.820 --> 08:42:46.720
Design all kings night. I think you kind of have to go for the king snipe at this point

08:42:46.720 --> 08:42:50.140
You know the game's over you have a weaker late game save you have one relic

08:42:50.520 --> 08:42:56.520
To his four or three. Yeah, I think you have to go for the king snipe. I think that is the win-con

08:42:56.520 --> 08:43:02.600
I think you might be right, I think for the king step to work you kind of have to go

08:43:02.600 --> 08:43:06.920
for it early as well while grubby is still focusing on the micro macro if you just wait

08:43:06.920 --> 08:43:10.160
till you're completely defeated then your opponent will only just watch out for his

08:43:10.160 --> 08:43:13.760
king and it doesn't work so you want to go for that king step as early as possible usually

08:43:13.760 --> 08:43:17.480
when you feel like the game is lost right now it might still seem a little playable

08:43:17.480 --> 08:43:20.960
he's got a few light cap on the field but the fire lance is hard counter to the light

08:43:20.960 --> 08:43:25.760
have the Instagram is a good backline here for the Vietnamese and also

08:43:25.760 --> 08:43:29.600
grubby took down patrol like time patrols huge here whenever you're winning

08:43:29.600 --> 08:43:34.080
just pick it up 300 feet 100 goal just it's like an anti-throw measure yeah

08:43:34.080 --> 08:43:37.840
I should do that good vision particularly grubby's vision by the way like

08:43:37.840 --> 08:43:41.200
outpost with down patrol he sees the whole map at least on his side of it

08:43:41.200 --> 08:43:45.040
fantastic stuff for him and he's gonna finish wall off that way side beautiful

08:43:45.040 --> 08:43:50.440
yeah I kind of agree with you there all grubby needs now is the siege to push him

08:43:50.440 --> 08:43:55.440
Once he gets the castle out of the way, he can just make his own castle there and then push forward.

08:43:55.440 --> 08:44:06.440
Yeah, excellent point Leery, that castle, that hill, goes from a disastrous situation on defense to a very advantageous defensive position if you get the castle up of your own if you're grubby.

08:44:06.440 --> 08:44:14.440
Some raids coming through, this gold's a bit exposed. Maybe a tower or castle here could help, even the town center, but so far it's pretty readable.

08:44:14.440 --> 08:44:19.720
Also, it feels like Grubby is missing a lot of upgrades in his finances though.

08:44:19.720 --> 08:44:23.520
Like 32 minutes into the game, he's had the finances though for a very long time and only

08:44:23.520 --> 08:44:24.920
getting the second ammo upgrade.

08:44:24.920 --> 08:44:27.000
I feel like he should be a little bit faster with that.

08:44:27.000 --> 08:44:30.240
Like the second you start floating through, just start clicking everything.

08:44:30.240 --> 08:44:32.480
Every second you can see, you just click at this point.

08:44:32.480 --> 08:44:33.480
Yeah.

08:44:33.480 --> 08:44:38.760
I feel like that's one of the hardest things for newer players, to get all the upgrades

08:44:38.760 --> 08:44:39.760
and take transitions.

08:44:39.760 --> 08:44:40.920
Because there's so much stuff.

08:44:40.920 --> 08:44:42.400
You have to micro all your units.

08:44:42.400 --> 08:44:43.600
You have to keep your economy running.

08:44:43.600 --> 08:44:46.600
You have to make sure you don't lose a fight, you don't have to make sure you don't miss micro a fight.

08:44:46.600 --> 08:44:53.600
And then suddenly you also have to tech switch with units you don't really play a lot and techs you never really did before.

08:44:53.600 --> 08:44:55.600
That's kind of the hard part.

08:44:55.600 --> 08:45:01.600
Yeah, I completely agree. There's so many players that coach and it's just like, they're floating like thousands and thousands of res.

08:45:01.600 --> 08:45:04.600
They're always like, oh, what do I click? At least you just click everything at this point, you know?

08:45:04.600 --> 08:45:10.600
Yeah, just pick up all the res. I mean, the big part of this team is just getting the right combo,

08:45:10.600 --> 08:45:17.280
But also getting all the upgrades and consistently players are missing key upgrades that make their combo a lot weaker than it should be

08:45:17.280 --> 08:45:20.920
But here we go. That should come in at both sides. The philance has seemed pretty strong

08:45:20.920 --> 08:45:24.440
But we're still missing armor for grubby so they even get stronger than they are right now

08:45:25.680 --> 08:45:28.800
Captain is doing okay to hold. 140 popped almost 200 though

08:45:28.800 --> 08:45:32.600
So grubby clear advantage would love to see a castle on this hill really would love that

08:45:33.360 --> 08:45:34.680
Yeah

08:45:34.680 --> 08:45:37.840
Grubby's comp is a bit harder to play because he has no mobile units

08:45:37.840 --> 08:45:44.840
Well, Lance not only has horses, but his horses also move faster, it's human bonus, so he has the ultimate mobility.

08:45:44.840 --> 08:45:47.840
He should choose every single fight on the map right now.

08:45:47.840 --> 08:45:54.840
Yeah, let's get ready to put it. No ballistics though, for Lance, so actually he's getting such little DPS out of the Skipjack backline.

08:45:56.840 --> 08:45:58.840
That hurts, especially if you don't realize it.

08:45:58.840 --> 08:46:04.440
Yeah, in Texan we're in, Grubby's actually done a great job of picking up the Convade

08:46:04.440 --> 08:46:05.440
upgrades.

08:46:05.440 --> 08:46:09.200
He like never misses out on an E Grubgrade, he always grabs them as soon as possible.

08:46:09.200 --> 08:46:11.360
It's probably his best quality as an AWP player.

08:46:11.360 --> 08:46:15.480
He's found himself with a nice healthy 2000 score lead, he's making a short work of Captain

08:46:15.480 --> 08:46:19.440
Lance for this first game, if this keeps up Grubby could find himself in the Grand Finals.

08:46:19.440 --> 08:46:24.680
Of course Grubby vs Lance is a matchup we haven't seen in the tournament so far.

08:46:24.680 --> 08:46:34.080
It's not so strong from Gruby, it goes philand to have so much health, HP, it's disgusting.

08:46:34.080 --> 08:46:35.080
Like what do you even take into it?

08:46:35.080 --> 08:46:38.400
You can't take into Paladin, your kit check just feel underwhelming.

08:46:38.400 --> 08:46:42.600
You know one thing Lance could do, which is a bit risky, but at this point you have to

08:46:42.600 --> 08:46:44.400
go for risky options.

08:46:44.400 --> 08:46:45.400
Yeah.

08:46:45.400 --> 08:46:46.400
Oronators.

08:46:46.400 --> 08:46:47.400
Oronators.

08:46:47.400 --> 08:46:50.560
Yeah, you'd never see that in a pro game because of the bombards from Vietnamese, but if there's

08:46:50.560 --> 08:46:53.680
no pro game in here, you never know when Gruby slips up.

08:46:53.680 --> 08:46:56.680
could be interesting I like that it's a good call-out it's like the only thing

08:46:56.680 --> 08:47:00.720
that beats this comp because they're both very slow yeah both not really mobile

08:47:00.720 --> 08:47:04.960
units and it requires good micro to get rid of them bomber cannons which we

08:47:04.960 --> 08:47:09.440
don't have any on the field right now so yeah that's true do you have heavy scorpion with

08:47:09.440 --> 08:47:13.400
humans? I don't think we have it no no heavy scorpion so honorger the only

08:47:13.400 --> 08:47:16.360
siege that can really help you do get siege honorger of course no siege

08:47:16.360 --> 08:47:20.720
engineers so it's a decent option it's an expensive one we'll see if he does go

08:47:20.720 --> 08:47:24.720
for it but so far land seems to be committed to just more stables and whatnot. I mean is that a

08:47:24.720 --> 08:47:29.040
good job? Is that 160 pop? This game is far from over to be honest despite Grubby having a nice position.

08:47:30.320 --> 08:47:33.120
Nope. He's gonna snipe the castle villagers. What?

08:47:33.120 --> 08:47:35.440
Well, they're kicking in. That's the advantage of humans.

08:47:35.440 --> 08:47:38.400
Yeah, look at that. Good mobility. Good positioning here.

08:47:39.120 --> 08:47:43.280
Lance with some solid micro on those kipchicks as well. He's dodging the skirm's fame perfect

08:47:43.280 --> 08:47:48.160
actually. He's got ballistics in now. Killed a lot of villagers there. Grubby lost a bombard as

08:47:48.160 --> 08:47:54.300
Well, probably actually might be kind of throwing with this forward castle. It's gonna get denied the trepidation on it guys

08:47:54.300 --> 08:47:56.300
What are we seeing? They're still fighting

08:47:57.440 --> 08:48:01.680
There's like probably version of just a little bit and also his like his skirmish is a fighting the house

08:48:01.680 --> 08:48:07.200
I his hip checks are fighting the finances, which is perfect. Yeah, also what you think about God's hour now for groovy

08:48:07.400 --> 08:48:09.960
To secure the king. Is that too much of a?

08:48:11.160 --> 08:48:15.400
No, he will think of that. No way. He will think of that. I actually like it

08:48:15.400 --> 08:48:20.200
But yeah, I also don't think it's gonna come to be but Gartham is always interesting. I don't think he did leave that castle

08:48:20.200 --> 08:48:24.240
That's a minus 650 for grubby by the way lost six weeks to still in the castle

08:48:24.240 --> 08:48:27.620
We didn't see the delete come through starting to fight a little bit better here now

08:48:28.160 --> 08:48:34.760
Full armor upgrades full upgrades in general on this comp from grubby Lance also has full upgrades except some armor on kipcheck

08:48:34.760 --> 08:48:39.360
That could come through and of course missing that elite upgrade now missing elite. It's very expensive though

08:48:41.520 --> 08:48:44.880
Doesn't do much either to be honest. What five HP in the dream

08:48:45.400 --> 08:48:55.400
Yeah, I think it makes him shoot an extra arrow, maybe some extra damage, but guys, the chat's favorite tech, PaperMoney is coming in, giving Grubby a little bit more gold as he chops the trees.

08:48:56.400 --> 08:48:58.400
Very nice to see that come through.

08:48:59.400 --> 08:49:06.400
That gold's gonna tickle up like nothing else. Free relics, and PaperMoney is 60 on wood. That's like 6 relics right now.

08:49:06.400 --> 08:49:10.240
It's actually going up very fast by the way. That's kind of insane.

08:49:10.240 --> 08:49:14.400
He's going to be able to stamp out some gold and it's like crazy right now.

08:49:14.400 --> 08:49:19.360
Oh my god, a bit of a mispath there. Dude, there's a lot of kip tricks that went down.

08:49:19.360 --> 08:49:21.840
What's grubbing on the top? He has some buildings there.

08:49:21.840 --> 08:49:26.560
He has a tower. Guard tower incoming? Guard tower could come through.

08:49:26.560 --> 08:49:30.720
I'm just going to quickly change this to this lance. There we go.

08:49:30.720 --> 08:49:35.280
Nice little overlay stitch. Oh, you just lost the captain.

08:49:35.280 --> 08:49:37.280
and you lost captain

08:49:37.760 --> 08:49:44.160
There's a very good reason for that change, but it's just Lance now. It's not the captain Lance. It's just like been downgraded

08:49:47.800 --> 08:49:50.920
Well, it's not losing this game. I was like, yeah, he deserves to get punished here

08:49:50.920 --> 08:49:53.920
It's not against grubby at the end of the day. Give captain to grubby. That's it

08:49:54.840 --> 08:49:59.360
In true hair fashion. That's what deserves to happen. Oh keep the gate open. I almost

08:50:00.320 --> 08:50:03.800
Grubby though Grubber's got a fantastic position here. I think he's made a great game. Yeah

08:50:03.800 --> 08:50:05.800
Yeah, look at those resources.

08:50:05.800 --> 08:50:08.800
Yes, rest for days.

08:50:08.800 --> 08:50:11.800
You also see something on the bottom now from Lance.

08:50:11.800 --> 08:50:13.800
There's like a few buildings.

08:50:13.800 --> 08:50:15.800
Is that a siege book?

08:50:15.800 --> 08:50:17.800
King's Night Potential?

08:50:17.800 --> 08:50:21.800
Honestly, if you must have like 40 assas and send them all to the south

08:50:21.800 --> 08:50:24.800
and just run into Grubby's base and just look for something,

08:50:24.800 --> 08:50:26.800
that's your wincon, right?

08:50:26.800 --> 08:50:28.800
And that's how we'll go down very fast.

08:50:28.800 --> 08:50:31.800
Yeah, I think you never resigned this map without trying your King's Night.

08:50:31.800 --> 08:50:37.100
That's just a horrible horrible like competitive play. You always try the kingship even if it's looking rough

08:50:37.500 --> 08:50:43.980
Great play from Grubby though. Just the counter raid makes the game messy for Lance Lance is obviously struggling in terms of population right now

08:50:43.980 --> 08:50:49.800
He's stuck in this base and Grubby's actually going for forward cast on the left the tower was just the appetizer the main course is coming

08:50:50.460 --> 08:50:53.800
Forward castles looking solid there and remember no human stone walls

08:50:53.800 --> 08:50:57.140
So these houses are the best defensive structures we can hope for it for Lance

08:50:57.140 --> 08:51:07.420
I think Lance's best shot is C-Drams, like 7 C-Drams in the south, 30 of Sarum just run

08:51:07.420 --> 08:51:08.420
into his base.

08:51:08.420 --> 08:51:11.740
I'm going to afford that before dying though, that's the question.

08:51:11.740 --> 08:51:12.740
I think you can.

08:51:12.740 --> 08:51:13.740
It's like the food for C-Drams.

08:51:13.740 --> 08:51:14.740
I think you can.

08:51:14.740 --> 08:51:18.460
I think you underestimate how long it takes for players to finish the game at this level.

08:51:18.460 --> 08:51:21.180
That's probably the thing that takes the longest for them.

08:51:21.180 --> 08:51:26.100
Pushing an advantage in a pro game is usually very fast, whereas these guys are very good,

08:51:26.100 --> 08:51:29.100
They usually take a little longer to finish off the game.

08:51:29.100 --> 08:51:31.100
Lance?

08:51:31.100 --> 08:51:36.100
Lance? Just walks past all of the army. Oh my god, he just lost half of his army!

08:51:36.100 --> 08:51:39.100
Just walking past the battlefield, trying to deny this castle!

08:51:39.100 --> 08:51:42.100
But the castle's up! Wow, that was a huge blunder!

08:51:42.100 --> 08:51:45.100
He just passed through the entire battlefield!

08:51:45.100 --> 08:51:47.100
Oh my god!

08:51:47.100 --> 08:51:49.100
Is that in the pathing, maybe?

08:51:49.100 --> 08:51:52.100
No, no, that was intentional! That was intentional!

08:51:52.100 --> 08:51:55.100
Unfortunately for his men, of course.

08:51:56.100 --> 08:51:59.540
Tower, watch tower, lose the gold with the predictions.

08:51:59.540 --> 08:52:03.060
Where's my Gatt Tower? I've been calling for this for like ages.

08:52:03.060 --> 08:52:05.780
I'd like to see Bomber Tower. Bomber Tower would be great.

08:52:05.780 --> 08:52:09.140
Oh, but take a look at this. Defensive castle for Grubby.

08:52:09.140 --> 08:52:12.740
Near his king. Yeah, to defend the king.

08:52:12.740 --> 08:52:15.060
I mean, he could have moved the, I guess.

08:52:15.060 --> 08:52:18.660
He could have moved the king. He could have moved the king to the castle, but that works too.

08:52:18.660 --> 08:52:22.020
Oh, look at the petards, the petards. Where we at? Where we at?

08:52:22.020 --> 08:52:25.380
Oh, petards. In the cube. I slid them in the cube, but I don't know where they are.

08:52:25.380 --> 08:52:27.540
Oh, he's not see a king's knife.

08:52:28.140 --> 08:52:29.460
The last one is trying to king's knife.

08:52:29.460 --> 08:52:30.340
This is fantastic.

08:52:30.340 --> 08:52:31.740
He's got a massive bunch of patards.

08:52:32.020 --> 08:52:33.460
No ramps on the bottom though.

08:52:33.900 --> 08:52:34.500
We have how much?

08:52:34.500 --> 08:52:35.620
You have six patards.

08:52:35.740 --> 08:52:36.940
That's a lot of patards.

08:52:36.940 --> 08:52:37.580
That's the issue.

08:52:37.580 --> 08:52:38.380
He's surrounded.

08:52:38.980 --> 08:52:40.540
Yeah, you'll see it.

08:52:41.420 --> 08:52:42.980
You might not pay attention to that.

08:52:43.100 --> 08:52:43.540
Yeah.

08:52:44.020 --> 08:52:45.420
It's a grubby, slimy, slimy.

08:52:45.420 --> 08:52:45.940
Grumpy.

08:52:45.940 --> 08:52:46.820
He does see it.

08:52:46.820 --> 08:52:47.940
It's actually looking at it.

08:52:48.260 --> 08:52:49.220
But do you just react to it?

08:52:49.220 --> 08:52:50.420
Does he actually see it?

08:52:50.420 --> 08:52:50.820
Yeah.

08:52:50.820 --> 08:52:52.420
There's no reason to have the patards here

08:52:52.420 --> 08:52:53.900
and not in a castle or something.

08:52:53.900 --> 08:52:55.900
Lance hides them, amazing.

08:52:55.900 --> 08:52:57.900
Lance hides them, beautiful.

08:52:57.900 --> 08:52:59.900
He's massing up some kipchak shots.

08:52:59.900 --> 08:53:01.900
I've got 10 petards.

08:53:01.900 --> 08:53:03.900
Robbie has vision everywhere.

08:53:03.900 --> 08:53:05.900
He has towers, outposts, buildings, town patrol.

08:53:05.900 --> 08:53:07.900
This is what Robbie sees himself.

08:53:07.900 --> 08:53:09.900
He sees everything.

08:53:09.900 --> 08:53:11.900
He's basically a thing of spy.

08:53:11.900 --> 08:53:13.900
Okay, petards going in.

08:53:13.900 --> 08:53:15.900
This is the last play, of course.

08:53:15.900 --> 08:53:17.900
Another castle from Robbie up here.

08:53:17.900 --> 08:53:19.900
Lance is completely cooked.

08:53:19.900 --> 08:53:21.900
This is the last niche effort.

08:53:21.900 --> 08:53:28.340
Ungeschond voluntarily to move to the castle the part are moving. Oh, he only sense the part as well. He wants to blow the king up

08:53:33.380 --> 08:53:37.700
He knows you can stop it, but it's not gonna panic. Yeah. Yeah, he's on the wrong side

08:53:40.180 --> 08:53:42.180
Where the king is

08:53:44.380 --> 08:53:49.420
The thing is it's the wrong side, but grubby's pushing the top so if captain's attacks from the bottom

08:53:49.420 --> 08:53:55.280
It didn't be like harder for Grubby to react to this army. He's maybe kind of stuck at home with just what he's got

08:53:55.480 --> 08:54:01.620
Grubby's pushing very very fast. We're gonna watch out for this batard push. We have one cat ramp to open up the wall first. Oh

08:54:02.600 --> 08:54:08.400
That's reason reason reasons. He sees the king. I see that he sees it. He knows it's only the wrong map

08:54:08.400 --> 08:54:11.380
What does he do? He has to break through the bottom Grubby can move the king

08:54:11.380 --> 08:54:15.500
Does Grubby know that he researched it though? He should you you get a little thing?

08:54:15.500 --> 08:54:18.940
Yeah, but does Groggy know what that means though, is the question.

08:54:18.940 --> 08:54:19.940
Ah, he should.

08:54:19.940 --> 08:54:20.940
Maybe it's correct.

08:54:20.940 --> 08:54:24.340
We talked about it in one of our Coachings.

08:54:24.340 --> 08:54:26.500
I'm joking by the way, we didn't, but he should know.

08:54:26.500 --> 08:54:28.700
Oh, Groggy researched it as well.

08:54:28.700 --> 08:54:30.700
Groggy researched it as well.

08:54:30.700 --> 08:54:33.060
It's a race for the King's Snipe.

08:54:33.060 --> 08:54:34.940
The King's running, the King's running!

08:54:34.940 --> 08:54:35.940
Groggy's going for the King!

08:54:35.940 --> 08:54:38.180
It's a double King's Snipe!

08:54:38.180 --> 08:54:40.180
Lance is going to get the Tempered Tards!

08:54:40.180 --> 08:54:41.180
Where's he going though?

08:54:41.180 --> 08:54:42.180
Is he going the wrong way?

08:54:42.180 --> 08:54:43.180
He's going...

08:54:43.180 --> 08:54:45.180
Brother, down this way, down south.

08:54:45.180 --> 08:54:47.640
But he's defending, he's defending, he's gonna try to set the siege.

08:54:47.640 --> 08:54:50.340
He's diving the siege, he just wants to keep his castle alive.

08:54:50.340 --> 08:54:53.180
So you can delay as much as you can and go for the kink snipe.

08:54:53.180 --> 08:54:56.660
Grubby is all over him right now, it's one Captain Lance kink snipe.

08:54:56.660 --> 08:54:57.860
That's all he's got.

08:54:57.860 --> 08:55:00.340
The game is completely lost, it's 200p up to 80.

08:55:00.340 --> 08:55:02.620
But he's Captain's castle alive, Captain Lance.

08:55:02.620 --> 08:55:04.860
It's the Captain Lance and nothing else.

08:55:04.860 --> 08:55:06.020
10 petards.

08:55:07.820 --> 08:55:08.980
Body blocking?

08:55:08.980 --> 08:55:12.180
A fire lancer. These guys are modding the fire lancer right now, holy.

08:55:13.420 --> 08:55:15.020
Dude, dude, he's getting body blocked.

08:55:15.020 --> 08:55:17.020
I'm gonna blow the phalanxer up and just leave.

08:55:18.660 --> 08:55:19.660
One puttard down.

08:55:20.520 --> 08:55:21.020
Dude.

08:55:21.020 --> 08:55:21.520
Sweet.

08:55:21.520 --> 08:55:24.520
Dude, Grubby is not reacting to this at all, by the way.

08:55:24.520 --> 08:55:26.020
Oh my god, oh my god.

08:55:26.020 --> 08:55:28.020
Grubby's trying to go for his own king snipe.

08:55:29.520 --> 08:55:31.020
No, he's adding another castle.

08:55:31.020 --> 08:55:34.020
But the king is, the king is super, he hasn't moved the king.

08:55:37.020 --> 08:55:37.520
Dude.

08:55:37.520 --> 08:55:39.520
And there's no Vils, the garrison, the tc's as well.

08:55:39.520 --> 08:55:41.020
There's no Vils, the garrison, the tc's.

08:55:41.020 --> 08:55:42.020
He moved them all the way.

08:55:42.020 --> 08:55:43.020
Oh my god.

08:55:43.020 --> 08:55:44.020
Shoot the wall.

08:55:44.020 --> 08:55:46.020
Oh my goodness. Why is he shooting a wall?

08:55:47.020 --> 08:55:49.020
No, but look at the guards!

08:55:49.020 --> 08:55:51.020
Look at the guards! We're going the wrong way!

08:55:58.020 --> 08:56:00.020
That was so underwhelming.

08:56:00.020 --> 08:56:02.020
That was EXTREELY underwhelming.

08:56:02.020 --> 08:56:05.020
The kids were just like, what the hell is going back in too late?

08:56:05.020 --> 08:56:08.020
Dude, that was one of the kinkstifes of all time.

08:56:08.020 --> 08:56:10.020
Anyway, Cat's Life is King.

08:56:11.020 --> 08:56:13.020
Cat's Life is King is running!

08:56:14.020 --> 08:56:18.300
He's got, yeah dude, Grabby's using this by the way.

08:56:18.300 --> 08:56:21.540
Oh, look at Lance pulling a death note?

08:56:21.540 --> 08:56:27.340
Oh my god, the King of Strikes is in the middle of the map.

08:56:27.340 --> 08:56:28.820
Grabby's got vision.

08:56:28.820 --> 08:56:29.820
Oh god.

08:56:29.820 --> 08:56:33.740
He's got one last bandit of units.

08:56:33.740 --> 08:56:36.260
Wait, what's Gribby doing in his face?

08:56:36.260 --> 08:56:38.260
What's all this like, blue dots?

08:56:38.260 --> 08:56:41.260
What is this Gribby?

08:56:41.260 --> 08:56:47.740
what is this from grubby he's just building walls everywhere

08:56:47.740 --> 08:56:54.460
okay it's one way to save the king anything but guard tower

08:56:54.460 --> 08:57:00.300
oh that's too funny that's too what the hell is grubby doing

08:57:00.300 --> 08:57:04.620
I mean if you confuse yourself something no right no no I thought it could be like a letter

08:57:04.620 --> 08:57:06.820
on the map yeah I thought he was writing something as well

08:57:06.820 --> 08:57:10.980
Yeah, yeah, he's just hey just building walls

08:57:11.860 --> 08:57:16.180
Maybe he's just realized the only way he loses is if he loses his king and since he has no stone

08:57:16.180 --> 08:57:20.940
He just walls of politics, but like these walls are so uncoordinated like oh, bro

08:57:20.940 --> 08:57:26.580
It's okay. Where's my eyes to do this crazy if anything it makes it more likely to lose the king because you can't move it anywhere

08:57:26.580 --> 08:57:31.240
I agree. I actually grew that you just making confusion and your king's gonna die. Oh

08:57:31.940 --> 08:57:33.740
Oh

08:57:33.740 --> 08:57:34.780
He sees the king!

08:57:34.780 --> 08:57:36.280
He's- the king's gonna run!

08:57:37.120 --> 08:57:38.240
That makes me!

08:57:38.240 --> 08:57:39.740
Oh my god! Oh my god!

08:57:41.120 --> 08:57:42.240
Body block, body block!

08:57:42.240 --> 08:57:43.120
Oh, we're on air!

08:57:43.620 --> 08:57:44.280
Body block!

08:57:44.280 --> 08:57:45.400
He's trying to block!

08:57:45.400 --> 08:57:46.680
Oh my god, he's still fast!

08:57:46.680 --> 08:57:47.440
There's a lot of fanny!

08:57:47.440 --> 08:57:48.240
Look at him go!

08:57:49.240 --> 08:57:50.680
He actually got away, he actually got away!

08:57:51.180 --> 08:57:53.720
The impscripts are- the impscripts are coming!

08:57:53.720 --> 08:57:55.080
The impscripts are coming!

08:57:55.080 --> 08:57:56.520
There's no place for the king to run!

08:57:56.520 --> 08:57:57.640
The impscripts are here!

08:57:57.640 --> 08:57:59.880
Ladies and gentlemen, Grubby has taken game one!

08:58:00.320 --> 08:58:01.720
Wow! Cinema!

08:58:03.740 --> 08:58:09.800
very, very nice ending there. That was so much fun. Lance almost had it with a kinksnipe.

08:58:09.800 --> 08:58:14.520
If you can just walk his batards away from the castle. But because he couldn't do that,

08:58:14.520 --> 08:58:18.160
very underwhelming kinksnipe from Lance, but overall, a great game and a great game won

08:58:18.160 --> 08:58:23.180
for Grubby. He stopped the Cuban Lance strategy that was undefeated in this tournament. Three

08:58:23.180 --> 08:58:27.680
times a win for Lance, one time winning for Singsing, but finally met its math in the

08:58:27.680 --> 08:58:32.800
loser bracket final. And Grubby with a great Vietnamese strategy to counter it and of course

08:58:32.800 --> 08:58:36.640
leery with some credit there as well with uh... a good at coaching a good w

08:58:36.640 --> 08:58:38.240
coaching from leery

08:58:38.240 --> 08:58:41.160
uh... not just a grubby uh... gameplay but of course having that nice time

08:58:41.160 --> 08:58:48.160
behind the help for sure

08:58:51.040 --> 08:58:53.520
uh... i don't think it for the war

08:58:53.520 --> 08:58:59.280
which actually i think it's

08:58:59.280 --> 08:59:02.400
They wouldn't even surprise me. They get everything.

08:59:02.400 --> 08:59:07.320
From CAF counter to the best ranged scrims in the game, to Bomber cannons,

08:59:07.320 --> 08:59:11.360
to Ratnarcher, another ranged counter, to Firelands.

08:59:11.360 --> 08:59:14.720
Yeah, the Vietnamese skills are very, very overpowered at the moment.

08:59:14.720 --> 08:59:17.240
They have no weakness, right?

08:59:17.240 --> 08:59:20.720
You have some saves like Frank's, good CAF save, but they have no weaknesses.

08:59:20.720 --> 08:59:24.320
Where Vietnamese is just... What did they even die to?

08:59:24.320 --> 08:59:27.240
Yeah, Vietnamese are just a well-rounded team right now.

08:59:27.240 --> 08:59:30.280
very overly well-rounded, potentially broken,

08:59:30.280 --> 08:59:32.160
depends on who you ask.

08:59:32.160 --> 08:59:34.000
But of course, both players can play the civs.

08:59:34.000 --> 08:59:35.880
So if Vietnamese is deemed overpowered

08:59:35.880 --> 08:59:37.560
in these settings, Captain Luntz can just pick it up

08:59:37.560 --> 08:59:38.560
for himself.

08:59:38.560 --> 08:59:40.200
So far, guys, the 1-0 Grubby.

08:59:40.200 --> 08:59:42.920
Let me remind everyone of the brackets.

08:59:42.920 --> 08:59:44.960
Winner of this match, Captain Luntz versus Grubby,

08:59:44.960 --> 08:59:48.400
will face Pig in the grand finals of the Kings Gauntlet.

08:59:48.400 --> 08:59:50.240
So far, we have a fantastic match

08:59:50.240 --> 08:59:52.480
between Captain Luntz and Grubby.

08:59:52.480 --> 08:59:54.080
1-0 Grubby, Captain Luntz home map,

08:59:54.080 --> 08:59:56.920
and he's gonna choose Arena.

08:59:56.920 --> 09:00:04.920
Next map, he's going to take Grubby to Arena, but Grubby has won us the Arena games in the tournament so far, at least most of them, so I think he's going to be okay with the situation.

09:00:06.920 --> 09:00:16.920
Grubby has watched some of the Arena games from Lance. He knows that there's probably some cheesing coming, some Castle Rush, some Fast Aim, something between those lines.

09:00:17.920 --> 09:00:20.920
So let's see how he will react and what he will do against it.

09:00:20.920 --> 09:00:27.920
Well, who was it? He did the Moiske rush with those temple guards. Was that Captain Lance?

09:00:27.920 --> 09:00:29.920
Or was that someone else?

09:00:29.920 --> 09:00:34.920
It was Pig. It was Pig again. Captain Lance. But Captain Lance won the defense there.

09:00:34.920 --> 09:00:39.920
So it seems like whether he's on offense or defense of the weird stuff, he seems to be in a comfort zone on arena.

09:00:39.920 --> 09:00:46.920
Question from the chat. Will the finals be played today? Yes, the finals will be played today right after the loser bracket finals.

09:00:46.920 --> 09:00:50.760
Grubby were to win this event Grubby were to play four competitive matches today

09:00:50.760 --> 09:00:55.040
If you will if you would be the guy who wins this event not just play the four matches

09:00:55.040 --> 09:00:56.360
He's gonna have to win the four matches

09:00:56.360 --> 09:01:00.280
This is a crazy loser bracket run from Grubby right now except he's captain Lance

09:01:00.280 --> 09:01:04.640
It's the second set of the day. He dropped from the upper bracket for a final earlier today as well. So

09:01:05.640 --> 09:01:08.000
Both these guys, you know kind of deep in it

09:01:09.400 --> 09:01:11.320
And Grubby's already playing quite late right now

09:01:11.320 --> 09:01:16.780
So he's gonna have to really stay up and and get that get that midnight oil burning. That's all we can say

09:01:16.920 --> 09:01:22.920
Yeah, that's what happens when you have to make the loser bracket run like I think double animation is so high though

09:01:22.920 --> 09:01:27.160
Like one guy makes it right to the final. It's just it's so nice to watch

09:01:28.080 --> 09:01:30.080
And also I like how there's no

09:01:30.160 --> 09:01:34.000
Advantage for the winner like the upper bracket guy like okay. He's rested

09:01:34.240 --> 09:01:39.160
But there's no like I saw you in some other games like one zero leads. I don't like that

09:01:39.160 --> 09:01:43.880
I like how they go into the last set on like equal footing. I actually agree with that

09:01:43.880 --> 09:01:48.860
I think the advantage of being rested maybe like being like the host of the draft or something like that could be good

09:01:48.860 --> 09:01:52.940
I hate starting with 1-0. I hate the bracket reset. We're not gonna see anything like that

09:01:52.940 --> 09:01:56.300
It's gonna be a high pass grand final the two best present term at going at it

09:01:56.860 --> 09:01:58.220
I

09:01:58.220 --> 09:02:01.380
Don't know if they've started by the way. I think I'm still waiting for the ID

09:02:02.020 --> 09:02:05.540
I'm not sure if they're gonna go. Let's see. No, they have these news

09:02:05.540 --> 09:02:13.820
Harry, you know you can press streamers, right? You're on dashboard right now. Press streamers.

09:02:13.820 --> 09:02:16.180
If you go to Groovy, you can just click where fortress is, you see?

09:02:16.180 --> 09:02:17.780
Oh, that's fantastic, yeah.

09:02:17.780 --> 09:02:20.940
You didn't know that?

09:02:20.940 --> 09:02:24.100
No, we didn't know that. Thank you for telling me.

09:02:24.100 --> 09:02:26.100
Pharma number one player in the world, guys.

09:02:26.100 --> 09:02:29.300
What do you mean pharma number one? You're the new number one now?

09:02:29.300 --> 09:02:31.580
No, Leery's number one. He won the tournament.

09:02:31.580 --> 09:02:34.300
Oh, that's true. But he didn't knock me out. You guys are both frauds.

09:02:34.300 --> 09:02:37.660
I literally won, but Lewis locked me out, that's like...

09:02:37.660 --> 09:02:41.500
Yeah, there you had 20 attempts, 22 many.

09:02:41.500 --> 09:02:44.220
I just saw my dog, Lewis.

09:02:44.220 --> 09:02:48.060
He sent me and said half the APN, half the game, Moloch, half the brain.

09:02:48.060 --> 09:02:49.940
Half the brain cells.

09:02:49.940 --> 09:02:52.420
It was good enough though.

09:02:52.420 --> 09:02:54.260
You can't get the back of a Warcraft tournament.

09:02:54.260 --> 09:02:57.820
If anything, Grubby's the real champion there, but...

09:02:57.820 --> 09:02:58.860
Let's see.

09:02:58.860 --> 09:03:00.300
Some paid actors.

09:03:00.300 --> 09:03:02.700
Sounds like some cope.

09:03:02.700 --> 09:03:12.300
They're hosting the lobby right now. I don't know if they have it up, but I'll assume I'm going to have that soon.

09:03:12.300 --> 09:03:27.700
Arena in the next map, Captain Lance's home map, and let's talk a little bit about some civilizations and some strategies that he's done, so he's done a bunch of different strats, or like a bunch of different civilizations, but overall, Captain Lance is pretty much always played around castle drops.

09:03:27.700 --> 09:03:30.480
It seems to be his favorite thing on arena. Just get that castle down

09:03:31.000 --> 09:03:36.280
Play with a lot of army break the walls and just make your point uncomfortable. Don't just go for the boom

09:03:36.520 --> 09:03:40.780
It seems to be captain lancest, you know kind of play style or general game plan on arena

09:03:40.900 --> 09:03:43.920
Grubby is almost always done the brigundians on arena first

09:03:43.920 --> 09:03:47.960
So I imagine we're gonna see a brigundians pick up for grubby

09:03:50.980 --> 09:03:52.980
We'll see see in a second

09:03:52.980 --> 09:04:06.980
I kind of like the Bohemians versus Braggondians. I think the only issue was, I think in Groobies last set versus Uthermal, I think Uthermal kind of just waited too long and gave Groobie 5 relics and just gave him the entire map control.

09:04:06.980 --> 09:04:14.980
I think if Groobies playing the, you know, the relic control, you have to go for the faster ramp with the Bombard cannons and how did he approach.

09:04:14.980 --> 09:04:19.980
Yeah, I agree with that. I certainly agree with that.

09:04:19.980 --> 09:04:27.420
I think Bohemians in general are great, great sifts to pick up for Arena, but they haven't

09:04:27.420 --> 09:04:31.700
had the most amount of success against Grubby's Burgundians. Grubby has beaten Bohemians twice,

09:04:31.700 --> 09:04:35.740
once from Ethermal, granted some, you know, Ethermal misplays and inexperienced on Arena,

09:04:35.740 --> 09:04:41.340
but again Pig, Grubby pigs Bohemians in the set where they played, so despite Grubby losing

09:04:41.340 --> 09:04:46.140
that set, Grubby was favoriting, or sorry, was the favorite on that Arena match at least.

09:04:46.140 --> 09:04:51.140
So Garby's played a fair share of Bohemians, or against the fair share of Bohemians, and

09:04:51.140 --> 09:04:53.220
he's beat them most of the time.

09:04:53.220 --> 09:04:57.700
I find it interesting how no Bohemian players actually mess up like 7 whoof needs and just

09:04:57.700 --> 09:04:58.700
pushing a straight line.

09:04:58.700 --> 09:05:03.140
It's always like a couple here, a couple there, you know, you build a castle in the middle

09:05:03.140 --> 09:05:07.900
too fast and it just gets stripped down instantly and we haven't seen the death ball of Bohemians

09:05:07.900 --> 09:05:10.900
yet, which is why they're so powerful.

09:05:10.900 --> 09:05:15.460
It's only been discovered really in the last couple of months or like 1-2 years I feel

09:05:15.460 --> 09:05:18.660
Like even in competitive though because before I remember back in the days

09:05:18.660 --> 09:05:25.780
There wasn't like really four or five trap pushes any like ten bomber cannon pushes people just used to like spam rams and

09:05:25.900 --> 09:05:31.300
One at a time as well. Yeah, I think so as well like we've kind of accepted that

09:05:31.420 --> 09:05:37.300
Behemence can just get to like 15 and whoopies 15 cannons at the same time and that's completely unbeatable

09:05:39.460 --> 09:05:41.460
You know, yeah

09:05:41.620 --> 09:05:43.620
Captain Lance versus Grubby getting set up

09:05:43.620 --> 09:05:48.900
going to be an arena, the home map of Catman Lance, and the game will start in any second

09:05:48.900 --> 09:05:54.940
now, so, there it goes.

09:05:54.940 --> 09:05:58.380
Grubby feels like he will get Castle Rush, probably.

09:05:58.380 --> 09:06:03.940
You've seen Lance Castle rushing most of his opponents.

09:06:03.940 --> 09:06:06.180
Let's see how he reacts to it.

09:06:06.180 --> 09:06:09.220
Actually, Grubby has yet to be Castle Rush at all.

09:06:09.220 --> 09:06:13.500
I'm talking about that Yamato Castle Rush, like that forward Castle first.

09:06:13.500 --> 09:06:19.520
Yeah, it's just like forward castle first everything forward. Don't give him time to set up the light cab

09:06:19.520 --> 09:06:22.080
No, everyone's just respecting grubby's light cab on arena

09:06:22.080 --> 09:06:28.100
He hasn't been tested and I feel like the second he gets tested he'll make some mistakes on defense. Let's start panicking a little

09:06:28.100 --> 09:06:31.140
It's not gonna be that clean 3dc boom with the belly control

09:06:31.140 --> 09:06:34.860
So if anyone's gonna do it's gonna be captain Lance of course shout out your motto

09:06:34.860 --> 09:06:39.260
He'll be joining us for the finals cast so the motto is coming up, but he won't be playing

09:06:39.260 --> 09:06:46.480
He's lost round one, unfortunately, but I think that style of forward castle will actually punish Grubby's defensive kind of light cab opening

09:06:46.480 --> 09:06:50.160
And a very heavy eco focused opening with the Burgundians

09:06:52.660 --> 09:06:57.460
Also, I think one of Grubby's weaknesses actually I'm pushed like every single time I watch him die

09:06:57.460 --> 09:07:03.520
He's always getting attacked. I feel like whenever he's being left to, you know, do his thing is playing very very good

09:07:03.520 --> 09:07:08.120
But yeah, let's see what captain last come so I completely agree with that

09:07:08.120 --> 09:07:12.880
It's been his problem in the ladder race as well. I remember when I did one of my many coaching sessions with grubby, of course

09:07:13.320 --> 09:07:19.080
The one big thing is that like if he's on defense, he's not playing grubby age of Empires

09:07:19.080 --> 09:07:23.720
So he's playing some kind of like weird thing where he's panicking. He's leaking a lot of damage

09:07:23.720 --> 09:07:26.400
She's not horrible on defense, but it's not crisp clean

09:07:26.840 --> 09:07:33.720
He's not able to play his game and I feel like cat and lance is gonna expose that defense and at least test it

09:07:33.720 --> 09:07:37.160
You know, maybe exposes a bit harsh will give grubby the benefit of the doubt

09:07:37.160 --> 09:07:41.880
Maybe he's got some new defensive skills, but it certainly needs testing before this term is over

09:07:44.520 --> 09:07:48.440
Hair on T90 have beef going on. That's why he didn't cast this tournament. That's a lie

09:07:48.840 --> 09:07:54.260
Just flat out lying on the internet crazy. I asked United to cast every single day of the tournament

09:07:54.800 --> 09:07:58.520
unfortunately, I think our schedules didn't align he initially confirmed a couple weeks ago and

09:07:59.280 --> 09:08:01.120
The schedules just didn't work out for him

09:08:01.120 --> 09:08:06.640
So we couldn't get it in on the cast one make that perfectly clear the sphere of the king's gala was to include as many people

09:08:06.720 --> 09:08:10.000
We had like Dave dashboard as many people as possible come up for the cast

09:08:10.000 --> 09:08:13.360
I wanted t90 come in but it just didn't work out. All right

09:08:14.080 --> 09:08:16.080
a truck springs with fake news as well

09:08:16.400 --> 09:08:18.400
just want to clear that up because the

09:08:18.520 --> 09:08:21.120
You know the internet and she can run with that license thumbs

09:08:22.000 --> 09:08:25.160
What is this politically correct error we're dealing with these days?

09:08:25.720 --> 09:08:29.320
Maybe I should just lean into it. Yeah screw that guy t90. Of course

09:08:31.120 --> 09:08:36.120
He's got HROKT. T90 may be awake, but he's not worth waiting around.

09:08:36.120 --> 09:08:39.120
I'll wait a thousand hours for HROKT, but I won't wait for T90.

09:08:39.120 --> 09:08:41.120
That's for sure.

09:08:41.120 --> 09:08:45.120
They're still in the lobby, by the way. There's some crazy pre-game...

09:08:45.120 --> 09:08:48.120
What are they? Drinking protein shakes or something? Some pre-workouts coming in?

09:08:48.120 --> 09:08:50.120
I don't know what's going on.

09:08:50.120 --> 09:08:54.120
Grubby's in his first competitive set for today.

09:08:54.120 --> 09:08:57.120
Hope he has some creatinine, some pre-workout.

09:08:57.120 --> 09:08:59.120
Grubby's got a frickin...

09:08:59.120 --> 09:09:01.400
I don't know, he hit the gym, he's got a lock in.

09:09:01.400 --> 09:09:02.240
Or maybe some more food.

09:09:02.240 --> 09:09:05.040
Like for me, just more food is good enough, you know.

09:09:05.040 --> 09:09:08.160
Ah, Groovy stands up and leaves, sits down,

09:09:08.160 --> 09:09:10.600
and Captain Lance stands up the second Groovy gets back.

09:09:10.600 --> 09:09:11.720
My goodness.

09:09:11.720 --> 09:09:13.840
It's fantastic, actually.

09:09:13.840 --> 09:09:17.120
A little bit of Captain Lance pause, and actually,

09:09:17.120 --> 09:09:19.840
the wife just came home with some cookies right now.

09:09:19.840 --> 09:09:22.680
So if I, another time today, if I have a cookie later,

09:09:22.680 --> 09:09:25.000
or two, don't blame me, Jack.

09:09:25.000 --> 09:09:26.760
It's been a long day, just letting you guys know

09:09:26.760 --> 09:09:30.760
I might eat a cookie on stream in the next few hours.

09:09:30.760 --> 09:09:32.760
It's been a long day. I think I've earned it.

09:09:32.760 --> 09:09:34.760
The memes will go crazy.

09:09:34.760 --> 09:09:36.760
They haven't given me a break, Liri.

09:09:36.760 --> 09:09:38.760
They haven't given me a break.

09:09:40.760 --> 09:09:42.760
Cookies are taking all the breaks.

09:09:42.760 --> 09:09:44.760
Yeah, they haven't given me the breaks,

09:09:44.760 --> 09:09:46.760
so I'm taking my own to eat, exactly.

09:09:46.760 --> 09:09:49.760
You have to hide in the bathroom to eat your cake.

09:09:51.760 --> 09:09:53.760
Why did this eating stuff even start?

09:09:53.760 --> 09:09:55.760
It started with the Worldcraft tournament.

09:09:55.760 --> 09:10:00.720
So like in the Warcraft tournament, I was like getting coaching with Grubby and like I've been doing long hours

09:10:00.800 --> 09:10:03.920
Obviously, I'm a hard-working streamer one of the hardest jobs on the planet

09:10:03.920 --> 09:10:07.560
And I'd be working the long hours in a 12-hour shifts grinding away

09:10:07.560 --> 09:10:12.120
You're playing a lot of Warcraft and then Grubby's like dude. Are you always eating? I'm like no grubby

09:10:12.120 --> 09:10:16.160
It's just I play for four hours and like we have a coaching session. I'm grabbing a bite while talking

09:10:16.160 --> 09:10:19.680
I thought I was fine and all of a sudden it's like every time Grubby showed up

09:10:19.680 --> 09:10:23.400
I'm boom I'm eating and he called me like a few times and all of a sudden the chest that's getting on it

09:10:23.400 --> 09:10:27.360
And now now they call me fat H now they call me fat H and I'm the eater

09:10:27.360 --> 09:10:33.560
That's my reputation no longer like the best a rich player. It's just down the drain. I'm fat H now. That's how it is

09:10:35.400 --> 09:10:38.280
How does you know fat error? Thanks, Lewis

09:10:40.440 --> 09:10:44.920
You're not here fat. Oh God should I know what's coming?

09:10:45.560 --> 09:10:49.760
I'm sure you honestly looking at you look very just normal like there's nothing out

09:10:50.520 --> 09:10:52.520
You know, you're fine. You're good

09:10:52.520 --> 09:10:58.520
That doesn't begin to cover us as a truck. Yeah, dude, the Uber eats guys know me by by my first name. So

09:10:59.200 --> 09:11:03.000
It was first name basis. They don't even we don't even use the app Uber eats

09:11:03.000 --> 09:11:07.800
Did this know what's happening you like they have my number my actual numbers contact info

09:11:08.040 --> 09:11:14.240
Yeah, and by the way all that you happen aside guys, let's hop in to the second game between grubby and captain Lance

09:11:14.400 --> 09:11:18.120
Let's get some energy in the chat for grubby or Lance depending on who you support

09:11:18.120 --> 09:11:22.200
Of course grubby with the first win here. Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness

09:11:22.520 --> 09:11:26.200
It's a Burgundian mirror! We've never had a mirror, all tournament!

09:11:26.200 --> 09:11:29.000
It was possible to have a mirror every single game.

09:11:29.000 --> 09:11:34.920
We didn't have a single mirror and finally, in the loser bracket final, we have a Burgundian mirror.

09:11:34.920 --> 09:11:37.560
This is literal cinema. I'm so happy this is happening.

09:11:37.560 --> 09:11:42.200
Grubby is the Burgundian's king. He's been winning every set with Burgundians on Arena,

09:11:42.200 --> 09:11:45.160
but Lance won his last game with Burgundians on Arena.

09:11:45.160 --> 09:11:48.680
He won his last game against the last matchup. Who did he play against? Pig.

09:11:48.680 --> 09:11:55.060
And now he's tested the Burgundians up against Grubby's tried and tested Burgundians and it's a mirror match

09:11:55.060 --> 09:11:57.060
Talk me through the matchup guys. Well, I fixed the cams

09:12:02.000 --> 09:12:09.880
Honestly, yeah, true. I know I think this is like really good for Lance because he's confident. He can beat Grubby at his own game

09:12:09.880 --> 09:12:12.600
So the specific matchup I think

09:12:12.600 --> 09:12:18.800
I'm not sure. I think this is like a hand-canon-ear-bombard kind of matchup since both are the same.

09:12:18.800 --> 09:12:21.760
I don't think Cav is actually good in the Burgundian mirror.

09:12:21.760 --> 09:12:29.280
I did find that out before, but I don't remember when, so I think it's going to be a hand-canon-ear-bombard kind of maybe halberd-ear type of game.

09:12:29.280 --> 09:12:33.800
Last played standard in his last game of Burgundians?

09:12:35.800 --> 09:12:42.200
No, not really. He went for like a castle drop. He went for a castle drop, then he made it in the center, then he played for the Rolex.

09:12:42.200 --> 09:12:46.960
He actually played very weird, but the thing is his opponent Pig was like pushing him with temple guards,

09:12:46.960 --> 09:12:52.040
it became a very messy game and then it turned into a monk war and Lance found the better of him.

09:12:52.040 --> 09:12:57.360
So it was not a standard Burgundians game from Lance, it could actually just be a forward cast of this game by the way.

09:12:57.360 --> 09:13:00.160
You know what Lance is going to do? Or he could do?

09:13:00.160 --> 09:13:01.160
Tommy.

09:13:01.160 --> 09:13:07.560
It might be the Flemish ram push. I'm not sure if anybody's ever told me about this, but the Flemish Militia plus rams,

09:13:07.560 --> 09:13:13.400
like leery found out about that last tournament it is completely broken it is like like the unit is

09:13:13.400 --> 09:13:19.160
so cheap it's it's insane that's really interesting so let's just explain that to the chat it's on

09:13:19.160 --> 09:13:24.760
luis's youtube he adds uh every luis win is on his youtube but never any losses uh makes you think

09:13:24.760 --> 09:13:31.000
but um anyway three win three videos on there as well yeah he posted video once a month about

09:13:31.000 --> 09:13:35.240
but guys that aside i just want to get this you know out there to the chat here brigandians

09:13:35.240 --> 09:13:39.320
have a unit, the Flemish Militia, they used to only get this unit with the Flemish Revolution

09:13:39.320 --> 09:13:43.880
Tekken Imp, where you turn all your villagers into Flemish Militia, so they can all in play.

09:13:43.880 --> 09:13:47.640
But they've changed it, now you can make the Flemish Militia from the Barracks, it's very cheap

09:13:47.640 --> 09:13:52.840
and spammable, and so the strategy is, you make a few Flemish Militia at home, you walk forward,

09:13:52.840 --> 09:13:57.800
forward siege, maybe even two workshops, and you go Ramm's Flemish Militia, similar to some other

09:13:57.800 --> 09:14:01.800
infantry strategies that we've seen, and you just ram through the whole base, you just ram his ass,

09:14:01.800 --> 09:14:07.080
And you go for the win and that could be a strategy that Lance can employ here. Very very cool one. Oh

09:14:09.300 --> 09:14:13.180
He's doing the chicken push this is disgusting so much chicken fun

09:14:14.380 --> 09:14:19.180
Amazing, they're all chicken falling. They're all really good at it. By the way, what better than me? I know I

09:14:20.180 --> 09:14:23.700
Have to teach me I need to I need to I need them as a coach

09:14:23.780 --> 09:14:24.580
Yeah

09:14:24.580 --> 09:14:29.900
Basically you have to put a diagonal wall through the chickens and the chicken tries a path to the other sides

09:14:29.900 --> 09:14:36.100
And then if you you know draw a wall it goes to the TC. I think Lance did it wrong actually not Lance's chickens

09:14:36.100 --> 09:14:38.100
They're standing their ground

09:14:39.780 --> 09:14:43.980
What I'm going oh poor guy. Oh, he's following. Oh, no

09:14:44.380 --> 09:14:47.940
And so guys so it begins this rabbit wants to go to the other side

09:14:48.140 --> 09:14:52.900
But guess who's the middle man is captain Lance and boy does he look hungry?

09:14:52.900 --> 09:14:57.820
He's gonna eat those chickens or rabbits in this case and he's kind of tricked them

09:14:57.820 --> 09:15:04.780
Yeah, this this guy's got fooled as well. What a shame if see right to the doorstep. It's like Hera. Yeah, this is a dream

09:15:07.780 --> 09:15:11.540
Here here he comes he's being kind of hurted by Lance scouts and

09:15:12.100 --> 09:15:16.100
In comes the hair. I'm saying grab. He's doing the same. Maybe you should shoot those though

09:15:16.100 --> 09:15:17.500
I don't think you should shoot those two

09:15:17.500 --> 09:15:21.380
I think you should let them go around because now he's just like four animals rotting right now

09:15:21.380 --> 09:15:24.540
Yeah, he's rot maxing. He's rot maxing really hard. You gotta be careful with that

09:15:24.540 --> 09:15:30.480
Completely romaxing. Oh grubby's missed clicks either. He's killed a hair and broad daylight. Oh

09:15:31.160 --> 09:15:34.600
And he built it on the diagonal like he killed the hair on the diagonal

09:15:34.600 --> 09:15:39.840
Which means he cannot place the two tiles there and oh when he's actually you see how they're not like wrapping around properly

09:15:39.840 --> 09:15:43.120
Yeah, but I think they share works. They still show

09:15:46.280 --> 09:15:48.280
I know it was pretty sure

09:15:51.600 --> 09:15:53.360
And they come

09:15:53.360 --> 09:15:57.440
And they come this needs to remove this is just this is just garbage like I don't know

09:15:57.440 --> 09:16:02.920
I think the rabbits should just like jump over the wall or something like a it shouldn't be walking to the TC

09:16:04.480 --> 09:16:08.800
It's just too exploity like it. It looks like they they should be smarter than that

09:16:09.280 --> 09:16:14.560
Yeah, they know this like this was in some tournaments like a while ago, and then they nerfed this right and

09:16:15.240 --> 09:16:16.720
They removed it or what?

09:16:16.720 --> 09:16:22.720
They removed it so they move like way slower, but they still go to the TC just half the speed like yeah because slow it is

09:16:23.360 --> 09:16:30.820
It's like we introduced chickens so you can't push them to the TC what ends up happening

09:16:30.820 --> 09:16:33.880
We make some walls to push them to the TC like concept is the ring

09:16:34.320 --> 09:16:38.120
Yeah, pro players will always find a way to get food under the town center

09:16:38.120 --> 09:16:41.860
Like one like the devs put these things in to make sure you can't push it to the town

09:16:41.860 --> 09:16:44.380
So you have to mill it the next day. Why is that doing this?

09:16:44.900 --> 09:16:48.080
This guy is kind of shot barfing around the tree

09:16:48.560 --> 09:16:52.360
So I could go by strategy now Grub is doing his the standard build I believe

09:16:52.360 --> 09:16:57.500
Now he's just gonna go for it doing a barrack. Yeah, but this is standard friends

09:16:57.500 --> 09:17:02.560
He's gonna go for the stable barracks. Maybe a little early, but he's gonna click up make a stable standard light cab approach

09:17:02.940 --> 09:17:07.620
Captain Lance step a little faster. I wonder what he's doing. He's on stone. He's on stone again. He might slow

09:17:07.820 --> 09:17:10.140
Yeah, it's a castle drop. That's a castle drop

09:17:10.140 --> 09:17:13.260
This is a really good build from grobby as well like 25 bills with

09:17:13.500 --> 09:17:17.420
Burgundians going like I was like, yeah, that's pro level right you don't get much better than that

09:17:17.420 --> 09:17:21.660
I think Lance needs to make some Flemish though if he's gonna move out for the forward castle

09:17:21.660 --> 09:17:25.700
Yeah, I just got naked after he probably played like up every single game

09:17:25.700 --> 09:17:30.940
I was not to say he knows Luma or not, but he does up. Yeah, so he's got a little cute up

09:17:31.860 --> 09:17:37.320
He knows Grub is gonna go like a castle like Grub is going like every single game of Pagani since no secrets

09:17:38.460 --> 09:17:42.620
But Lance I like the four castle, but oh wait, he's not no

09:17:42.660 --> 09:17:43.740
He's not on gold

09:17:43.740 --> 09:17:47.780
He's gonna sell a stone for the gold and maybe just boom since he has bills on stone

09:17:47.780 --> 09:17:52.580
He's done this last time he's gonna go to the castle, but last time he went middle of the map castle just for like the relics

09:17:52.580 --> 09:17:57.980
It was really strange. I didn't like it actually. I'd rather see the forward castle, but it's likely to be a castle

09:17:57.980 --> 09:18:02.940
I don't know why he's doing such a strange build, but I don't know. I mean patterns in coastal. Yeah

09:18:03.860 --> 09:18:09.300
Sounds pretty scary if they get inside their economy, but the monk should counter it, but you know, this is a surprise factor

09:18:09.300 --> 09:18:13.420
Yeah, it's a decent surprise factor here. Well, I'm market blacksmith

09:18:13.420 --> 09:18:19.060
also look at the right position if Lance actually gets the forward castle like all

09:18:19.060 --> 09:18:22.620
the relics will be behind the castle which is like really awkward for Grubby to pick up

09:18:22.620 --> 09:18:26.700
like normally you can pick up like one or two side relics really easily but no side relics

09:18:26.700 --> 09:18:32.420
spawned this time for Grubby so yeah that's also a factor yeah pretty bad relics spawned

09:18:32.420 --> 09:18:37.420
for Grubby in general most of them close to the lance it's how it is sometimes though

09:18:37.420 --> 09:18:42.600
Cynical for the barracks. He might actually do the plummage militia that he talked about here. It's actually pretty cool

09:18:45.340 --> 09:18:48.380
Six on stone it's gonna be a floor castle. I just hope he doesn't go middle of the map

09:18:48.380 --> 09:18:52.080
I think it should be all the way forward just outside grubby's walls

09:18:52.080 --> 09:18:54.300
I think grubby needs to be tested

09:18:54.300 --> 09:18:59.200
It's a crime if grubby goes this entire tournament without getting tested with the forward castle

09:18:59.200 --> 09:19:03.780
Which I consider that to be the counter to the brigandians. I think that's kind of crazy to me

09:19:03.780 --> 09:19:08.220
Yeah, cause I feel like the middle of the map castle, it doesn't really achieve anything.

09:19:08.220 --> 09:19:11.540
Like yeah, sure you get the map control, but I feel like the castle's on the walls, you

09:19:11.540 --> 09:19:14.820
shoot the walls, you run in with one or two units, it's just so much more pressure.

09:19:14.820 --> 09:19:17.060
Yeah, and then you still get the map control behind it.

09:19:17.060 --> 09:19:20.780
It's like, you're point, it can't have really the presence of mind of like playing out the

09:19:20.780 --> 09:19:26.180
side, bringing back relics, going around your castle, like just, it's too hard to do.

09:19:26.180 --> 09:19:28.980
So just the forward castle wins you the entire map, basically.

09:19:28.980 --> 09:19:31.900
It has some risk, you know, with a couple of flourish, but let's say you can just make

09:19:31.900 --> 09:19:36.500
that risk kind of negligible look at grubby's goals like he's got the main

09:19:36.500 --> 09:19:39.860
gold forward like one of the goals on the outside is also pretty close to the

09:19:39.860 --> 09:19:43.180
you know the potentials castle spots and then he's going to go his small gold in

09:19:43.180 --> 09:19:49.540
the back this is for tile genius thank you for grubby

09:19:49.540 --> 09:19:54.580
that was grubby did ask me in our coaching session how to react to a

09:19:54.580 --> 09:19:58.180
castle forward since he fought Lance will do that

09:19:58.180 --> 09:20:04.180
He's very detailed. He's very precise, which I like actually.

09:20:04.180 --> 09:20:08.180
Because all those small details which we pros think about, he thinks about as well.

09:20:08.180 --> 09:20:09.180
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

09:20:09.180 --> 09:20:14.180
But he's a former World Champion for many, many years.

09:20:14.180 --> 09:20:20.180
He's an S-tier caliber gamer, and I think he carries, obviously now, a little past his prime,

09:20:20.180 --> 09:20:23.180
but he still carries a lot of that expertise and knowledge.

09:20:23.180 --> 09:20:26.180
And I agree, I love his analytical approach to a game.

09:20:26.180 --> 09:20:31.900
Um, and I think he'd really tries to understand what he's doing, not just what's good and just do that.

09:20:31.900 --> 09:20:33.580
He wants to understand why it's good.

09:20:33.580 --> 09:20:36.580
And here we go, Lance going around the side.

09:20:36.580 --> 09:20:41.580
Lur the scout around, this is perfect.

09:20:41.580 --> 09:20:43.880
This is what Grubby sees. Grubby's got no idea.

09:20:43.880 --> 09:20:45.780
He doesn't know. He doesn't know.

09:20:45.780 --> 09:20:48.080
He chose the wrong side. He chose the wrong side. He's exploring the right side.

09:20:48.080 --> 09:20:50.380
This is the same as the first game. Like Grubby has all the vision.

09:20:50.380 --> 09:20:55.080
This will be. Oh, Grubby's in the scout. Check the stone. Check the stone.

09:20:55.080 --> 09:20:56.640
He knows! He knows! He knows!

09:20:56.640 --> 09:20:58.000
You have to scout the entire map.

09:20:58.000 --> 09:21:00.040
You have to scout the entire map now, Grubby.

09:21:00.040 --> 09:21:00.540
You have to scout the map.

09:21:00.540 --> 09:21:03.240
He will find out in a second when the castle drops.

09:21:03.240 --> 09:21:05.720
That's true. The vills are here, but Grubby should know.

09:21:09.080 --> 09:21:10.160
Castle will drop on his face.

09:21:10.160 --> 09:21:11.720
Dude, is that just as that vision?

09:21:12.960 --> 09:21:13.480
He knows.

09:21:14.000 --> 09:21:14.560
Lance knows.

09:21:14.560 --> 09:21:17.320
Dude, is Captain Lance a kind of freak genius?

09:21:17.320 --> 09:21:18.960
Do you mean the castle just as that vision?

09:21:18.960 --> 09:21:19.960
Did he explore the gate?

09:21:19.960 --> 09:21:21.560
Grubby's sending ghosts for it.

09:21:22.800 --> 09:21:23.920
Are you pulling me, you thermal?

09:21:23.920 --> 09:21:28.720
This is insane. This is one tile away from vision from all sides. It's ridiculous.

09:21:29.280 --> 09:21:34.880
Wait, this is the thermal. Grubby has you thermal the villager. I second you thermal. Oh my god.

09:21:35.920 --> 09:21:39.440
He's sending them back at least. He almost you thermaled two villagers.

09:21:40.480 --> 09:21:43.760
Why does that keep happening to so many players? I'm actually really curious. I remember

09:21:43.760 --> 09:21:46.160
Harrod, you know, the pro player always has these problems.

09:21:46.880 --> 09:21:52.240
Yeah, it's an APM thing. So they play it. It's like they're on an ironically too fast in certain

09:21:52.240 --> 09:21:56.240
commands and that really messed up the TC gather point.

09:21:56.240 --> 09:21:57.240
The castle is gone!

09:21:57.240 --> 09:22:02.880
Dude, Grubby is in a really bad position because the castle is on his nose.

09:22:02.880 --> 09:22:04.160
Great castle by the way from Lance.

09:22:04.160 --> 09:22:05.160
Great castle.

09:22:05.160 --> 09:22:06.160
Grubby wants the relics.

09:22:06.160 --> 09:22:09.280
It's hard to just move out and take relics when there's a castle on your face.

09:22:09.280 --> 09:22:11.080
But nobody has made Custodia yet.

09:22:11.080 --> 09:22:13.200
Like Lance made a few but really late.

09:22:13.200 --> 09:22:15.400
I want him to just go directly into Custodia production.

09:22:15.400 --> 09:22:18.280
It's a very good unit into Monks because of that charge attack.

09:22:18.280 --> 09:22:21.280
Actually, yeah, that's a great...

09:22:21.280 --> 09:22:28.280
Isn't just like a siege workshop now with like Flemish in the rum? Maybe... better at this point?

09:22:28.280 --> 09:22:30.280
You could do that too!

09:22:30.280 --> 09:22:35.280
You could do that too! I'd be okay with either, but I think just getting the castle by itself and doing nothing else is not the play.

09:22:35.280 --> 09:22:38.280
Like, you've got to flip the relics now. They still like have on the field.

09:22:38.280 --> 09:22:41.280
Who's the dude? Beautiful.

09:22:41.280 --> 09:22:43.280
Babel for husbandry I'm okay with.

09:22:43.280 --> 09:22:44.280
I see.

09:22:44.280 --> 09:22:45.280
This is fine.

09:22:45.280 --> 09:22:49.960
And look at Grubby. Grubby's wall, he expected this. He expected the castle to look like his wall behind.

09:22:49.960 --> 09:22:55.460
Yeah, it's fantastic. This is a good habit he's picked up from the very start by the way.

09:22:55.460 --> 09:23:01.380
This is something I teach a lot as well on Arena. You always gotta make your buildings in a second layer to play against this forward castle.

09:23:01.380 --> 09:23:07.040
Christina comes in he could be trapped actually grab a kid who committed to that. Yeah, I think he should have

09:23:08.780 --> 09:23:10.780
Yeah, I could see it is out

09:23:11.100 --> 09:23:12.360
Kevlin's in a

09:23:12.360 --> 09:23:14.360
In a gnarly position there

09:23:14.860 --> 09:23:17.580
Look at this, don't come for that. Second forward castle

09:23:17.980 --> 09:23:22.580
Second forward castle incoming. That's his thing that actually is staying he loves to go for it

09:23:23.620 --> 09:23:26.700
That comes to Christina, I'm gonna try to convert this

09:23:31.380 --> 09:23:34.580
I'm not sure if you will be able to stop the second forward castle.

09:23:35.980 --> 09:23:37.580
Oh, one conversion?

09:23:38.980 --> 09:23:42.580
Well, Lance is gonna get it back. Lance also brings a scout to deal with the monk.

09:23:42.780 --> 09:23:45.980
Lance will get all the relics here and this is what I was talking about.

09:23:46.380 --> 09:23:50.180
He's testing Grubby with the forward castle. Grubby does have a nice 15-village lead though.

09:23:50.380 --> 09:23:54.180
Crazy good triangle positioning on the 3TCs as it looks very solid.

09:23:54.580 --> 09:23:58.180
But Lance is gonna come with another forward castle and that's hard to stop.

09:23:58.180 --> 09:24:03.380
A good pick-off though with that like a steps a lance monk delaying that relic from coming in very good

09:24:05.220 --> 09:24:09.620
Yeah, and grobby's gold position is really bad like look at the extra gold in the outside of his base

09:24:10.180 --> 09:24:14.060
Unless you the closest one is the one beneath the castle and then the one in the center of the map

09:24:14.100 --> 09:24:16.860
Yeah, like if this castle blocks the gold and grobby

09:24:19.700 --> 09:24:22.500
Except a little level in the finest position

09:24:22.940 --> 09:24:24.740
He doesn't really have any

09:24:24.740 --> 09:24:31.000
Important dress on the front like sure he will lose the buildings. I think the castle had to go deeper. Yeah, I hate this

09:24:31.000 --> 09:24:34.500
I would ask them more for like why couldn't you just make it right here?

09:24:34.500 --> 09:24:39.800
You're missing like two tiles and it's not centralized into the base. That's a weird castle for the last guys

09:24:41.820 --> 09:24:46.040
Second castle has to kill something because you're the mine over one case stone

09:24:46.120 --> 09:24:50.540
You send villages forward. That's so much commitment. Like grubby is up to K res. Yeah

09:24:50.540 --> 09:24:54.780
Yep, not impressed by the second castle.

09:24:54.780 --> 09:24:57.860
Grubby smartly just converts two villagers and backs off.

09:24:57.860 --> 09:24:59.020
It's completely fine.

09:24:59.020 --> 09:25:01.420
Grubby knows he's got the economic advantage.

09:25:01.420 --> 09:25:03.020
He can see the score as well.

09:25:03.020 --> 09:25:04.380
Now Lance will get the relics.

09:25:04.380 --> 09:25:06.660
He's bringing some back, but they haven't come in yet.

09:25:06.660 --> 09:25:10.500
So as far as resources collected, Grubby's pulling very far ahead.

09:25:10.500 --> 09:25:15.220
I feel like as long as Grubby doesn't blunder, he's in a great position here, ladies and

09:25:15.220 --> 09:25:16.220
gents.

09:25:16.220 --> 09:25:20.500
Yeah, he has to focus on getting to him now.

09:25:20.500 --> 09:25:24.900
with the castle so you can make traps immediately if you can't get to the traps then instant

09:25:24.900 --> 09:25:26.980
chemistry bomber cannon should do it as well.

09:25:26.980 --> 09:25:28.700
Yeah he's got the same speed.

09:25:28.700 --> 09:25:29.700
He's got the same speed.

09:25:29.700 --> 09:25:30.700
But you just cut production.

09:25:30.700 --> 09:25:31.700
Yeah he's not making those you're saying.

09:25:31.700 --> 09:25:32.700
Yeah.

09:25:32.700 --> 09:25:33.700
Stop making those go up.

09:25:33.700 --> 09:25:34.700
Yeah.

09:25:34.700 --> 09:25:35.700
Yeah just get some build production.

09:25:35.700 --> 09:25:37.700
I'm thinking of that though because it's unnatural.

09:25:37.700 --> 09:25:38.700
Yeah.

09:25:38.700 --> 09:25:42.940
I don't like how Lance like went about this like the idea was really good but I feel like

09:25:42.940 --> 09:25:45.900
he didn't really do anything with it right like he just made a forward castle and then

09:25:45.900 --> 09:25:50.020
just sat there 1TC and just you know looked at it right.

09:25:50.020 --> 09:25:55.380
fast it that's yeah yeah no work so I'll go all in with it yeah the workshop

09:25:55.380 --> 09:26:00.340
kusty lia mongs for them anything right just yeah find a way to push but he

09:26:00.340 --> 09:26:05.060
likes to work on the last round takes out the front seven houses barracks table

09:26:05.060 --> 09:26:09.020
and the monastery as well but the thing is like Lanth likes to go for the fast

09:26:09.020 --> 09:26:12.460
imp like that's a strategy he goes to the fast imp with the relics and he likes

09:26:12.460 --> 09:26:16.740
to use that relic advantage to propel his economy fast imp into some kind of

09:26:16.740 --> 09:26:21.140
like month-tread siege push it's kind of interesting it's not terrible but I

09:26:21.140 --> 09:26:24.740
agree because I'm more is in a bio bunch of food now selling his soul in his

09:26:24.740 --> 09:26:29.540
family on the morning maybe what a bit too much food there but yeah just sell it

09:26:29.540 --> 09:26:33.940
again you know it's interesting because it's gonna be two castle trep production

09:26:33.940 --> 09:26:38.420
versus one yeah there's actually a really big chance for lunch to win here

09:26:38.420 --> 09:26:41.940
because probably have to wait three minutes for chemistry when he it's imp

09:26:41.940 --> 09:26:45.620
And then for the Bombard can actually come out and you know

09:26:46.340 --> 09:26:48.340
We've got double the book

09:26:49.500 --> 09:26:51.500
Yeah, exactly. Thank you and yours come out

09:26:51.700 --> 09:26:55.180
Thank you for mine on arena. You can have a hundred villagers

09:26:55.180 --> 09:26:56.580
But if you're just stuck in this corner

09:26:56.580 --> 09:27:00.100
We talked about the bad goal like this is only one gold only one stone for gravity

09:27:00.100 --> 09:27:02.180
You're just eating like what you're eating some farms

09:27:02.180 --> 09:27:06.500
You have some wood and a little bit of space but really not much else in the corner of the map

09:27:06.500 --> 09:27:11.260
So a lot of times the player with the map control despite having a significant village of disadvantage

09:27:11.260 --> 09:27:14.660
which can just win on just squeezing you out of resources and minerals.

09:27:14.660 --> 09:27:18.320
And here we go, both players up to Grubby a little faster, but no castles.

09:27:18.320 --> 09:27:22.220
There's two castles in line, so if this is a TREB war, he's got double the TREB production,

09:27:22.220 --> 09:27:26.260
and he's got the Vrelix, which is taller for Braggundians.

09:27:26.260 --> 09:27:30.340
The correct play from Grubby here would actually be via second castles, but it's something

09:27:30.340 --> 09:27:32.740
that's really hard to realize.

09:27:32.740 --> 09:27:33.740
Really?

09:27:33.740 --> 09:27:38.260
Out of set just go straight into the university and then make the castle right in the back?

09:27:38.260 --> 09:27:43.060
obviously too but he already has stolen for one castle he knows there's two castles from lands

09:27:43.700 --> 09:27:46.980
he probably knows lands is up as well because that's what he has done so far so he knows it's

09:27:46.980 --> 09:27:52.260
gonna be a treb war so if you get two castles against two castles you're good but one against two

09:27:52.260 --> 09:27:56.420
can still be very risky okay what he's doing he's not doing that but that's okay because he's gonna

09:27:56.420 --> 09:28:01.940
do bomber cannons he's gonna go double double siege workshop castle here safe he'll fight a bit

09:28:01.940 --> 09:28:05.620
with the trebs most likely but overall he's gonna wait for the bombers he's gonna wait for the

09:28:05.620 --> 09:28:09.060
the bomber cannons but of course he needs to wait for chemistry guys chemistry

09:28:09.060 --> 09:28:13.940
two minutes 20 second upgrade it takes forever to research chemistry so that's

09:28:13.940 --> 09:28:17.060
gonna be a good two-minute window for Lance to use his double trap production

09:28:17.060 --> 09:28:20.860
try to take out the castle under some TCs and some important buildings from Grubby

09:28:20.860 --> 09:28:25.340
very close game to be honest with you despite the massive village advantage

09:28:25.340 --> 09:28:28.460
for Grubby it's still a really close game

09:28:28.460 --> 09:28:30.460
Yeah, I think that's great.

09:28:33.900 --> 09:28:38.620
Lance ending a second monster. He's gonna try to go up some monks as well.

09:28:38.620 --> 09:28:41.320
Two Castle Trebuchet production for sure.

09:28:41.320 --> 09:28:43.160
Chemistry immediately clicked from Rubby.

09:28:43.160 --> 09:28:44.840
He knows exactly what he has to do.

09:28:44.840 --> 09:28:50.440
This is some really high level play. I'm super impressed that both of these players have a clear cut plan.

09:28:51.940 --> 09:28:56.020
Two Trebuchets, yep. Two Castle Trebs, four Lance, Grubby.

09:28:56.020 --> 09:29:03.860
We're for one trebuchet chemistry guilds a little early, but it is showing that you know, he's worried about his gold. Honestly, he's worried about his gold.

09:29:03.860 --> 09:29:06.820
Yeah, it's really good. It's really good. It's super high level. Yeah.

09:29:08.260 --> 09:29:11.860
Yeah, we never thought about that. I think it's so like what is that?

09:29:15.940 --> 09:29:21.700
What is that groovy D versus monks though? Like if if lands gets a block printing redemption just starts converting the bomb by

09:29:21.700 --> 09:29:28.900
I guess it lets him convert those two.

09:29:28.900 --> 09:29:29.900
No redemption.

09:29:29.900 --> 09:29:32.940
He's getting a tonement which lets him convert monks, we're waiting for redemption.

09:29:32.940 --> 09:29:37.500
Block printing gives the monks extra 3 range, a tonement lets him convert enemy monks, redemption

09:29:37.500 --> 09:29:39.300
lets him convert enemy siege.

09:29:39.300 --> 09:29:44.100
So these monks are being very tapped into, all of these techs cost a lot of gold.

09:29:44.100 --> 09:29:46.140
And conscription will help him kind of make more units.

09:29:46.140 --> 09:29:49.300
It doesn't really have much production, so the conscription is not that needed, but fair

09:29:49.300 --> 09:29:50.300
enough.

09:29:50.300 --> 09:29:54.380
The scrubby have Hank in ears in production. Oh, yeah, he's already out of gold

09:29:55.300 --> 09:29:58.380
Gold yeah, or maybe or Lee like

09:29:59.300 --> 09:30:00.460
Looking rough

09:30:00.460 --> 09:30:05.760
You don't think the squirms though. He's in a goal. I'm gonna hear he's selling. He got built to sell

09:30:05.760 --> 09:30:09.660
He's selling everything for some gold. You got 800, but of course selling is a short-term play

09:30:10.260 --> 09:30:13.660
Masonry to help keep the castle up. I don't think you will keep it up three treacherous

09:30:13.660 --> 09:30:17.040
He's already from Lance to trebs from grubby Lance's turn to repair

09:30:17.040 --> 09:30:23.300
But the two traps from Grubby should be enough to out push the five repair villagers very very intense game right now

09:30:24.180 --> 09:30:25.860
I don't think

09:30:25.860 --> 09:30:29.700
Lance has redemption you proceed. I don't think so and the cannons are out

09:30:30.500 --> 09:30:35.860
Yeah, hey, not too late. We lose traps. It's a huge blunder all redemption coming in now

09:30:36.140 --> 09:30:42.780
We needed that earlier last of the blunder pretty hits the kid. He hits the bomber to the treads. Oh, oh my god

09:30:42.780 --> 09:30:47.180
He hit one? He hit a monk now?

09:30:47.180 --> 09:30:52.320
It's not the end of the world. Grubby is still holding. Grubby with a massive hold here.

09:30:52.320 --> 09:30:55.320
Great gameplay from Grubby. He's holding.

09:30:55.320 --> 09:30:58.120
Master Castle, but it's fine.

09:30:58.120 --> 09:31:00.920
He might have misclicked the no-choters.

09:31:00.920 --> 09:31:05.600
Yeah, at home and for redemption. Because I think they were right next to each other as well.

09:31:05.600 --> 09:31:06.600
Possibly, but...

09:31:06.600 --> 09:31:08.600
No, they're not. I don't think they are.

09:31:08.600 --> 09:31:09.600
They're not.

09:31:09.600 --> 09:31:11.600
I think the redemption is like...

09:31:11.600 --> 09:31:13.600
No, Redemption's bottom left.

09:31:13.600 --> 09:31:15.600
Redemption's bottom left.

09:31:15.600 --> 09:31:17.600
No, it's top middle.

09:31:17.600 --> 09:31:19.600
Either way.

09:31:19.600 --> 09:31:21.600
Either way, it's all good.

09:31:21.600 --> 09:31:23.600
He gets both techs and he's got the Redemption.

09:31:23.600 --> 09:31:25.600
But it's a bit late.

09:31:25.600 --> 09:31:27.600
He's lost a few trebuchets.

09:31:27.600 --> 09:31:29.600
I think this is looking good for Grubby.

09:31:29.600 --> 09:31:31.600
Yeah.

09:31:31.600 --> 09:31:33.600
I mean, there's some conversions.

09:31:33.600 --> 09:31:35.600
If you get the Bomber Canons,

09:31:35.600 --> 09:31:37.600
you can turn the fight.

09:31:37.600 --> 09:31:39.600
Oh my god, he's gonna get a second as well.

09:31:39.600 --> 09:31:41.600
Oh wow he's got two cannons!

09:31:42.600 --> 09:31:43.600
And those cannons...

09:31:46.100 --> 09:31:49.600
Dude, Grubby does not have the gold to push into these monks right now.

09:31:49.600 --> 09:31:52.100
He's lost two cannons, he's lost three cannons!

09:31:52.100 --> 09:31:55.600
The cannon that he got converted is used against the Trebuchet!

09:31:56.600 --> 09:31:59.600
Dude, one more hit! Oh he lost a cannon!

09:32:00.100 --> 09:32:04.600
Grubby only has one Treb, he's got so many more villagers, but he has no gold!

09:32:05.100 --> 09:32:07.600
It's so intense! Dude, the score does not matter!

09:32:07.600 --> 09:32:11.300
The score does not matter. Lance has the relics, he's got the position.

09:32:11.300 --> 09:32:14.900
The only thing that matters is whether Grubby can push back and leave his base.

09:32:14.900 --> 09:32:19.400
If he can't, he will lose in a war of attrition.

09:32:19.400 --> 09:32:22.100
Orc in handcunny is in the queue though.

09:32:22.100 --> 09:32:24.500
Four trees, how many ranges does he have?

09:32:24.500 --> 09:32:26.100
Five ranges.

09:32:26.100 --> 09:32:27.900
Good amount of handcunny is on the field.

09:32:27.900 --> 09:32:31.100
Monks from Lance, not many monasteries though.

09:32:31.100 --> 09:32:34.900
I think it's still looking good for Grubby, but Lance is making a game out of this.

09:32:34.900 --> 09:32:38.340
And the more units are on the field, the harder it gets to micromunks.

09:32:38.340 --> 09:32:41.100
Lance is also floating a lot of resources.

09:32:41.100 --> 09:32:45.200
And also you can't really sell that for gold, right? Because Grubby's already capped the market like crazy.

09:32:45.200 --> 09:32:47.200
Yeah, that's true. That's a good point.

09:32:47.200 --> 09:32:49.700
Lance is trying to sell some stone.

09:32:49.700 --> 09:32:53.100
I feel like Lance is losing his momentum though, and he can't lose his position.

09:32:53.100 --> 09:32:56.100
He's trying to make some production, but we lost a pair of villagers.

09:32:56.100 --> 09:32:57.600
No, this is looking good for Grubby, guys.

09:32:57.600 --> 09:33:00.700
Grubby's about to push out. He's on the main gold. Look at him!

09:33:00.700 --> 09:33:03.300
Starving child! He found some gold!

09:33:03.300 --> 09:33:12.220
This is great. This is great for Grubby. Grubby's about to be up 2-0. The Burgundian

09:33:12.220 --> 09:33:17.100
King. He doesn't lose Burgundians at Arena. Great play from Lance.

09:33:17.100 --> 09:33:21.300
He got tested on the Castle Drop. Yeah, he got tested on the Castle Drop and he actually

09:33:21.300 --> 09:33:26.840
beat it as well. Captain Lance with a great strategy overall. Maybe some execution. Could

09:33:26.840 --> 09:33:30.540
have been a little bit better. The Castle goes down. The five relics are there. Actually

09:33:30.540 --> 09:33:33.660
Only four, we never got the fifth, which is interesting.

09:33:33.660 --> 09:33:35.660
Grubby's pushing out, oh great, great from Grubby.

09:33:35.660 --> 09:33:37.780
Just going straight for the stone, but it's not needed.

09:33:37.780 --> 09:33:39.180
Two, zero.

09:33:39.180 --> 09:33:42.460
GG, well played, Grubby with a great defense there.

09:33:42.460 --> 09:33:45.580
Just holds in the back, beautiful stuff, ranges.

09:33:45.580 --> 09:33:47.940
The two works are fed away, instant chemistry click.

09:33:47.940 --> 09:33:49.380
He knew exactly what to do.

09:33:49.380 --> 09:33:51.340
He held beautifully, he traded the castles,

09:33:51.340 --> 09:33:53.020
but he got onto the gold,

09:33:53.020 --> 09:33:54.380
and now he's got double the bill count.

09:33:54.380 --> 09:33:56.900
If you get the gold in there, he is more than fine.

09:33:56.900 --> 09:33:58.460
Fantastic play from Grubby.

09:33:58.460 --> 09:34:00.340
He knew exactly what to do to win.

09:34:00.340 --> 09:34:04.080
really well played

09:34:04.080 --> 09:34:06.500
think landslide really well is just missing a few

09:34:06.500 --> 09:34:09.220
little bits of aggression here in the and also like if you started dropping

09:34:09.220 --> 09:34:10.740
these ranges a little bit earlier

09:34:10.740 --> 09:34:12.100
we had the monk still alive

09:34:12.100 --> 09:34:14.580
maybe the silver chance with like elite skirmishers

09:34:14.580 --> 09:34:16.860
yes monks

09:34:16.860 --> 09:34:20.100
yeah i like the way lancet playing i think he's playing good i think he's

09:34:20.100 --> 09:34:20.620
just

09:34:20.620 --> 09:34:22.620
missing a little bit of urgency

09:34:22.620 --> 09:34:25.500
little bit of like killer instinct

09:34:25.500 --> 09:34:28.260
i agree like a few skirmishers in front of the monks because like if you just have

09:34:28.260 --> 09:34:34.260
It's very simple for Grubby to outplay, like you just have monks, he goes back, he picks the fight, it's okay.

09:34:34.260 --> 09:34:38.260
But when you have monks and you have like 20 screams in front, all of a sudden, like you're hankin' or near,

09:34:38.260 --> 09:34:43.260
you can't just step up so much, your villagers can't easily just walk out, your trebs might get targeted,

09:34:43.260 --> 09:34:48.260
it becomes a lot more complicated, but Lance, I think it's a good strat, but he made it a little too simple for Grubby

09:34:48.260 --> 09:34:54.260
to figure out the pieces of the puzzle and break out of that little maze that he was throwing his way.

09:34:58.260 --> 09:35:03.540
Yeah, of course, I'm start to finish.

09:35:03.540 --> 09:35:05.540
He realized the castle.

09:35:05.540 --> 09:35:06.540
Yeah.

09:35:06.540 --> 09:35:07.540
He rushed him.

09:35:07.540 --> 09:35:08.540
I got chemistry.

09:35:08.540 --> 09:35:11.140
Even did guilt to sell resources to gain more gold.

09:35:11.140 --> 09:35:12.140
Yeah, that's cool.

09:35:12.140 --> 09:35:13.140
That's really cool.

09:35:13.140 --> 09:35:15.140
Grubbid is not much of this economy.

09:35:15.140 --> 09:35:19.620
And I will say, I think Captain Luntz, he did well.

09:35:19.620 --> 09:35:21.060
Of course, he's down to zero.

09:35:21.060 --> 09:35:25.380
He's now won just a single game away from losing the entire tournament.

09:35:25.380 --> 09:35:27.060
So he's got to lock in.

09:35:27.060 --> 09:35:30.740
He's got to get the reverse sweep in this set, just to even have a chance at the finals.

09:35:30.740 --> 09:35:35.220
I'll show you guys the bracket here, thank you all for tuning in, I think we have 15,000

09:35:35.220 --> 09:35:40.060
plus on Twitch and 7,000 plus on YouTube, actually 8,000 there, which is very, very nice.

09:35:40.060 --> 09:35:44.940
Let me show you guys the bracket here of course, we have Pig waiting in the grand finals, Grubby

09:35:44.940 --> 09:35:48.660
now up 2-0 on Captain Lance, it's Captain Lance's home map, he might think he's back

09:35:48.660 --> 09:35:54.300
to Arena and Grubby can't replay the Burgundians, so he did get a win with them but he can't

09:35:54.300 --> 09:35:57.140
we played them, so another arena could be a bit more tricky for him.

09:35:57.140 --> 09:36:02.220
Pig, of course, in the grand final waiting for the winner, this will be played today.

09:36:02.220 --> 09:36:06.100
So the loser bracket final will be played, and then the grand final afterwards.

09:36:06.100 --> 09:36:07.420
What a great tournament it's been so far.

09:36:07.420 --> 09:36:11.100
Let's see if he can close out with a banger here.

09:36:11.100 --> 09:36:18.940
Yeah, the champ saying that Pig did beat Grubby before, so I think he has this, fair

09:36:18.940 --> 09:36:19.940
enough.

09:36:19.940 --> 09:36:26.060
Grubby with a lot of momentum from the loser bracket. It was a 3-2 between Grubby and Pig,

09:36:26.060 --> 09:36:30.260
not like it was a domination from Pig or anything like that. Grubby showed that he can hang with

09:36:30.260 --> 09:36:35.980
him. Of course, not to take away from Pig. Pig is a fantastic player, made a great run, undefeated,

09:36:35.980 --> 09:36:40.540
the only undefeated of the tournament, but I reckon we have a very competitive finals if Grubby

09:36:40.540 --> 09:36:44.740
gets back in there. And also the same could be said for Captain Lance. He also went 3-2 with Pig,

09:36:44.740 --> 09:36:48.500
so really no matter what happens here, should be a very competitive series. Anonymous thinks

09:36:48.500 --> 09:36:52.420
to the five gifted subs I think you've all the follows as well all the new people following

09:36:52.420 --> 09:37:04.420
all the prime subs that came in thank you all for making this chairman as successful as it's been so far

09:37:04.420 --> 09:37:13.740
I think pig is sleeping by the way

09:37:13.740 --> 09:37:17.860
Hello hello

09:37:17.860 --> 09:37:23.340
Lewis

09:37:23.340 --> 09:37:25.220
I said uh-oh because pig is sleeping

09:37:25.220 --> 09:37:28.780
Oh yeah it's not H.R.O.C. he probably said it's a long time

09:37:28.780 --> 09:37:32.260
Don't worry don't worry he'll be up in time he hasn't let us down

09:37:32.260 --> 09:37:33.820
I hope not. Honestly, I hope not.

09:37:33.820 --> 09:37:35.180
No, it'd be very disastrous.

09:37:35.180 --> 09:37:37.820
Like, do that.

09:37:37.820 --> 09:37:38.900
Not going to lie chat.

09:37:38.900 --> 09:37:41.660
If it's grubby waiting and pigs asleep,

09:37:41.660 --> 09:37:44.260
it pick has like a minute and 20 seconds to show up.

09:37:44.260 --> 09:37:45.460
Otherwise, grubby wins.

09:37:45.460 --> 09:37:47.460
That's the rule. All right.

09:37:47.460 --> 09:37:51.260
That's the rule. I'm letting you guys know in advance.

09:37:51.260 --> 09:37:54.860
Pig better be ready.

09:37:54.860 --> 09:37:56.940
I'm kind of losing for the pick.

09:37:56.940 --> 09:37:58.100
Pick a captain lens.

09:37:58.100 --> 09:37:59.380
One of those suit on the dogs.

09:37:59.380 --> 09:38:01.180
Anyone but grubby.

09:38:01.180 --> 09:38:06.140
Honestly, I just want Grubby to lose because Leery coached him like if Grubby wins like Leery's path

09:38:06.140 --> 09:38:08.740
I just his coaching students went out

09:38:09.580 --> 09:38:13.080
But all my all my coaches died in the first round

09:38:13.080 --> 09:38:15.080
But even in the bracket like the

09:38:16.700 --> 09:38:19.460
If you scroll up the preliminary round they're all dead there

09:38:21.620 --> 09:38:25.300
Coach you give the nine right yeah, you give the nine yeah

09:38:25.460 --> 09:38:30.540
Well, you know, you know the story with day nine by the way. Yeah, like I was in his chats

09:38:30.540 --> 09:38:35.120
I was like typing a couple things. It was like you're lowest you're gonna play a game. I was like sure it was like

09:38:35.880 --> 09:38:39.680
Quarter past midnight school past 12. I was like, okay. I got 45 minutes

09:38:39.680 --> 09:38:46.200
It turned into five hours like I forced to rush him like five six seven eight nine times

09:38:46.200 --> 09:38:49.340
And then like he plays in the tournament and just dies like a dog

09:38:51.040 --> 09:38:54.880
I've stayed up for five hours with this guy like practicing it and he just dies

09:38:56.080 --> 09:38:58.080
Funny, but he did beat the

09:38:58.080 --> 09:39:02.540
No, but he did beat the foster rush like he beat your motto to zero

09:39:02.700 --> 09:39:08.220
But you'd fair who hasn't beat your motto. That's your motto even the healing forters beat your motto everything's beating your motto

09:39:09.060 --> 09:39:12.960
Like the ball around he did beat your motto and your motto is foster rushing

09:39:12.960 --> 09:39:18.520
So it wasn't five hours wasted for you, Louis. It wasn't wasted, but it wasn't great either. It wasn't great

09:39:18.520 --> 09:39:20.520
I enjoyed it. I enjoyed it

09:39:21.040 --> 09:39:25.480
It's very interesting coaching Danon because he was he's actually quite a fast player like he's quick

09:39:25.480 --> 09:39:30.040
Like super fast and but I feel like sometimes you can be too fast for your own good

09:39:30.580 --> 09:39:35.600
Because like a lot of time he was like zipping around and it's like he's clicking his scout a thousand times

09:39:35.600 --> 09:39:38.400
Whilst the ball was just feasting on his villages. It's crazy

09:39:39.160 --> 09:39:41.600
Like apart from that he's you know, it's pretty good

09:39:43.360 --> 09:39:50.200
Yeah, I think he had like I think he needed like a few more weeks to really just nail down his APM to make it effective

09:39:50.200 --> 09:39:53.300
Like yeah, a few bad habits that ended up biting him in the ass, unfortunately

09:39:53.300 --> 09:40:00.940
But that's the way it goes limit of time and you know these are not the best shape streamers you've ever seen like they had a couple weeks to play

09:40:01.260 --> 09:40:03.020
That's what makes it fun at the end of the day

09:40:03.020 --> 09:40:03.640
They're not pros

09:40:03.640 --> 09:40:08.860
They're just good players that try to get the best amount of knowledge and best amount of gameplay in just a couple weeks

09:40:08.860 --> 09:40:12.940
And then they show up and have to play against others in the same boat kind of makes it really interesting

09:40:14.220 --> 09:40:16.220
They know

09:40:17.300 --> 09:40:19.180
That's the experience he knows what he's doing

09:40:19.180 --> 09:40:25.300
But it's just that the timing is rough like he's getting to feud late like 30 seconds late with the vill idle and then the stable's going up too late

09:40:25.300 --> 09:40:27.300
But like apart from that

09:40:27.420 --> 09:40:32.160
You know, you know what he's doing. Yeah, here. Can you please make a new YouTube stream for the finals?

09:40:32.160 --> 09:40:36.580
No guys and don't bother me about that. I'm not gonna restart the stream. I'm not able to do that

09:40:36.580 --> 09:40:41.100
I literally can't do that. I don't know how so please don't bother me about that

09:40:41.100 --> 09:40:45.820
I'm gonna make these finals into a video on YouTube. So it will hit YouTube eventually as a video, okay?

09:40:45.820 --> 09:40:54.820
I want to get ahead of that. I know at 12 hours the bot cuts, but if you see people talk about that, just tell them that I know about it.

09:40:54.820 --> 09:41:00.820
We had a whole drama about that in the other day, but there's nothing I can do about it.

09:41:00.820 --> 09:41:06.820
Which sift they will pick? I've seen Lance play Malay, which would be the perfect sift for a strategist tried.

09:41:06.820 --> 09:41:09.820
Did he do the Ram and Karambit play or was that somebody else?

09:41:09.820 --> 09:41:11.820
He went fast imp as well.

09:41:11.820 --> 09:41:16.820
Yeah. Lance played it a few Karambits, but he went for the fast imp, Trebuchets.

09:41:16.820 --> 09:41:23.820
He's also done that with Incas, and went for the Cammukes as well, both of which actually worked phenomenally.

09:41:23.820 --> 09:41:27.820
He's got a few picks. They're back on Arena, by the way. Capmunt's another home map on Arena.

09:41:27.820 --> 09:41:31.820
So even though he lost, he's sticking to his guns. He did beat Grubby's Burgundians.

09:41:31.820 --> 09:41:34.820
So I mean, you might as well try it. Might as well go for it.

09:41:34.820 --> 09:41:43.020
with the five gifted. Thank you,

09:41:43.020 --> 09:41:44.020
Dizzle. Appreciate that, brother.

09:41:44.020 --> 09:41:48.020
Thank you and welcome.

09:41:48.020 --> 09:41:50.820
By the way, have you had a little

09:41:50.820 --> 09:41:52.820
announcement before the grand grand finals?

09:41:52.820 --> 09:41:54.820
Just remind me to do a chat. It's

09:41:54.820 --> 09:41:56.820
nothing too new. A lot of you guys

09:41:56.820 --> 09:41:58.820
know what it is, but it's a little bit

09:41:58.820 --> 09:42:00.820
of a surprise, maybe. It's kind of fun

09:42:00.820 --> 09:42:02.820
to just remind me for looking at

09:42:02.820 --> 09:42:06.160
uh... it's kind of fun to remind me for looking at us that's a prize before

09:42:06.160 --> 09:42:07.800
the grand finals

09:42:07.800 --> 09:42:10.860
i do hope that we can get this game started though because we're kind of

09:42:10.860 --> 09:42:12.700
tight on time already like

09:42:12.700 --> 09:42:18.100
getting late late today right now

09:42:18.100 --> 09:42:21.860
uh... thank you nc for the three months primal come welcome

09:42:21.860 --> 09:42:24.100
and by the way i can't believe that grubbies brigandians have been

09:42:24.100 --> 09:42:27.820
undefended alternative insane like that's a good prepared

09:42:27.820 --> 09:42:30.340
said that i was very much worth

09:42:30.340 --> 09:42:32.460
his time investment

09:42:32.460 --> 09:42:36.380
uh... i think that europe i know how on the fitness

09:42:36.380 --> 09:42:38.940
and i was a it's gonna be tested against pig though

09:42:38.940 --> 09:42:42.500
and we tested once more against pig if he does make it but he's still

09:42:42.500 --> 09:42:45.020
he's not good loose to captain lance

09:42:45.020 --> 09:42:47.740
you think pig is sleeping right now he's watching and preparing

09:42:47.740 --> 09:42:50.660
no i think he's watching and preparing it got worse than adamanty he's resting

09:42:50.660 --> 09:42:54.060
and prepping so he's not actually sleeping it's just kind of good

09:42:54.060 --> 09:42:59.060
that's very good

09:42:59.060 --> 09:43:28.740
Yeah, and here we go, we're starting off another arena game, Grubby vs. Kavanaugh, and here we go, Ross, wave vs. Persians, two civilizations, we haven't really seen much on arena, I think Grubby might have played it once or twice before, Grubby probably paused and read up what the Persians do.

09:43:29.060 --> 09:43:32.660
Captain Lance, bring it out. Kind of a weird to see if you're on Arena.

09:43:32.660 --> 09:43:35.860
Persons are great on Arabia. Deasons on Arena though.

09:43:35.860 --> 09:43:39.460
They're not a bad Arena to see, but they kind of played more like a boom style,

09:43:39.460 --> 09:43:41.860
not like push style. It feels a bit weird from him, I feel.

09:43:43.140 --> 09:43:45.780
Don't know what's incoming. Elephants, maybe.

09:43:46.980 --> 09:43:49.700
This could be a really good matchup for Persons, actually. You play like,

09:43:49.700 --> 09:43:53.380
Sivar and Halp. You have like the full Halp upgrades, that's way of missing,

09:43:53.380 --> 09:43:56.500
and then you play Sivar. That should be pretty good, actually.

09:43:56.500 --> 09:44:01.500
You think Lance will play standard? He hasn't played standard so far in his arena games.

09:44:01.500 --> 09:44:03.500
But what else can he do with Persians?

09:44:03.500 --> 09:44:07.500
It could, unironically, be elephants. Elephants are really good at killing buildings.

09:44:07.500 --> 09:44:14.500
And Persian TC works pretty well behind it. If you play one TC Persian style, it does work faster, which is okay.

09:44:14.500 --> 09:44:20.500
That seems a bit far out there. The elephants are easily counterable by monks.

09:44:20.500 --> 09:44:29.260
buy munk so I'm not sure if that's you know what we're gonna see but that's the

09:44:29.260 --> 09:44:33.420
perfect tip for booming I can't really think of any obvious cheese of Persians

09:44:33.420 --> 09:44:40.260
yeah what do you think Louis what do you make of this

09:44:40.260 --> 09:44:44.500
I was gonna say it actually because this one is coming up soon

09:44:44.500 --> 09:44:50.220
there's a pro tournament you want to save the strategy that Lance might go

09:44:50.220 --> 09:44:55.860
No, because I have so many ideas, but it's my only way of staying at the top level.

09:44:55.860 --> 09:44:59.100
So if I start leaking on my struts, then I lose my job, you know.

09:44:59.100 --> 09:45:00.100
Ah, okay, okay.

09:45:00.100 --> 09:45:01.100
It becomes homeless.

09:45:01.100 --> 09:45:04.540
Don't want to send me back home with Donalds, bro, don't worry.

09:45:04.540 --> 09:45:07.060
Keep your job as a pro YouTube player.

09:45:07.060 --> 09:45:10.340
Keep cooking, Lewis, keep cooking.

09:45:10.340 --> 09:45:11.580
Someone has to cook your burgers.

09:45:11.580 --> 09:45:15.740
Oh, there's a few references there, isn't it?

09:45:15.740 --> 09:45:18.820
Cocking McDonalds, like fucking hell.

09:45:18.820 --> 09:45:28.820
Not going to leak the strategy, so we have to do a little speculation here with the Persians, but I mean, even if you just see a boom at Alliance, I feel like that's going to give them a decent chance to win.

09:45:28.820 --> 09:45:36.820
The problem with just booming though is they feel like waves are very strong arenas of you get extra villagers as they get eco upgrades. Grubby can play them in a very similar style compared to the Burgundians.

09:45:36.820 --> 09:45:40.300
Burgundians you got to go for like a light cab approach pick up the relics

09:45:40.700 --> 09:45:44.580
Go for some nice economy behind it and then play a good late game

09:45:44.580 --> 09:45:47.020
It'll look a little different in late game compared to Burgundians

09:45:47.020 --> 09:45:52.580
You don't really play like the halve style you play most of like tiger cab Zanbury Raiders a lot of cavalry. That's very solid

09:45:53.540 --> 09:45:55.540
Grubby's just having a little trouble with this deer. It seems

09:45:56.380 --> 09:45:58.820
And I really perfect it into the center. Oh

09:45:59.620 --> 09:46:04.740
He wants to wait until the sheep runs out. Yeah, I think so. I think he's trying to time it correctly

09:46:04.740 --> 09:46:07.380
It's really good efficiency.

09:46:07.380 --> 09:46:10.500
Not Rothmax as some of the other players have been doing.

09:46:10.500 --> 09:46:11.500
Get's it there.

09:46:11.500 --> 09:46:12.500
No, no, it's okay.

09:46:12.500 --> 09:46:16.100
He'll finish the cow first and then he's going to go to the deer.

09:46:16.100 --> 09:46:18.180
So it's actually still pretty decent from him.

09:46:18.180 --> 09:46:19.940
Good early game setup.

09:46:19.940 --> 09:46:22.140
Oh, that's a bad house spot for Lance.

09:46:22.140 --> 09:46:25.060
Kind of griefing his lumbicamp.

09:46:25.060 --> 09:46:26.060
He still has some tiles.

09:46:26.060 --> 09:46:27.060
It's okay.

09:46:27.060 --> 09:46:28.060
Oh wait, nevermind.

09:46:28.060 --> 09:46:29.540
I thought it was a bit closer.

09:46:29.540 --> 09:46:30.540
Yeah, it's okay.

09:46:30.540 --> 09:46:32.940
How's that passage?

09:46:32.940 --> 09:46:41.100
horse into this so yeah the relic positions are I guess kind of even I don't think there's anything

09:46:43.500 --> 09:46:44.460
pretty well actually

09:46:46.540 --> 09:46:51.420
well we don't even know this is going to fight for the relics like so far the leading strategies

09:46:51.420 --> 09:46:55.660
here are the persians are going to just go for a pure boom give up the relics or we might see

09:46:55.660 --> 09:47:01.740
some kind of castle drop and there's some elephants I think the relic positions are you

09:47:01.740 --> 09:47:07.200
You know, somewhat okay for either player, not either player too happy or unhappy.

09:47:07.200 --> 09:47:11.600
Grubby's up 2-0, remember that guys, so one win here takes him to the grand finals.

09:47:11.600 --> 09:47:14.380
We haven't seen a single sweep amongst captains, by the way.

09:47:14.380 --> 09:47:22.300
I don't think we've seen a single sweep in the best of five stages, so if this is a sweep, Grubby's made tournament history, something worth mentioning, of course.

09:47:22.300 --> 09:47:28.400
Grubby's got a little bit of idle TC time, four seconds, but overall it's been a pretty smooth darkish from both players.

09:47:28.400 --> 09:47:42.320
I don't know why but Grubby did 3-0 Knobs. Sorry, we haven't seen a single 3-0 in the

09:47:42.320 --> 09:47:44.920
best of fives in any set that doesn't include Lance.

09:47:44.920 --> 09:47:45.920
Lance?

09:47:45.920 --> 09:47:52.440
No, that does include Lance. Sorry. Anyway, I don't know what I'm saying, but we could

09:47:52.440 --> 09:47:56.120
see a 3-0 basically is if Grubby wins this is the point I'm making.

09:47:56.120 --> 09:47:59.120
It's been a long day.

09:47:59.120 --> 09:48:04.300
Yeah, more identity is seen now from Grubby and Persians just slowly pulling ahead with

09:48:04.300 --> 09:48:06.620
the faster TC work rates.

09:48:06.620 --> 09:48:08.960
Yeah, actual villagers coming out.

09:48:08.960 --> 09:48:10.520
Always demoralizing growing up against Persians.

09:48:10.520 --> 09:48:14.960
You just like playing the game normally and then suddenly Persians are up like 10 villagers

09:48:14.960 --> 09:48:16.520
on you because the town centers work faster.

09:48:16.520 --> 09:48:18.720
Always can be tricky to go against that.

09:48:18.720 --> 09:48:22.720
But wait, also getting some extra villagers from their economy upgrades, if fair enough.

09:48:22.720 --> 09:48:23.720
You think it's about weight.

09:48:23.720 --> 09:48:24.720
You're automatically losing.

09:48:24.720 --> 09:48:30.200
it's like the moralizing yeah yeah yeah yeah you have to pay for those bills so

09:48:30.200 --> 09:48:33.480
they have like a moments of time with a little bit week since you're having to

09:48:33.480 --> 09:48:36.600
pay it we're like wait just get them for free you do you go upgrades and just get

09:48:36.600 --> 09:48:42.120
free bills yeah it's kind of true by the way the nation on YouTube we said I started

09:48:42.120 --> 09:48:47.360
OG AWE in 97 glad you brought me back to AWE to you welcome back mr. soil

09:48:47.360 --> 09:48:49.360
bacteria on YouTube. I love

09:48:49.360 --> 09:48:51.360
this. Tower rushing.

09:48:51.360 --> 09:48:53.360
Tower rush.

09:48:53.360 --> 09:48:55.360
He's tower rushing.

09:48:55.360 --> 09:48:57.360
Tower rushing.

09:48:57.360 --> 09:48:59.360
Wait. No, he's not.

09:48:59.360 --> 09:49:01.360
He could be like a really fast

09:49:01.360 --> 09:49:03.360
cast. That's a really fast castle.

09:49:03.360 --> 09:49:05.360
That would be castle.

09:49:05.360 --> 09:49:07.360
He's got look at his few

09:49:07.360 --> 09:49:09.360
counts. Would he be in fast castle?

09:49:09.360 --> 09:49:11.360
Might be a bit optimistic.

09:49:13.360 --> 09:49:15.360
This is a tower for sure.

09:49:15.360 --> 09:49:21.760
Well he did loom and also the one thing I don't like he hit loom before he clicked up

09:49:21.760 --> 09:49:25.060
It should be after you click up right you get there then you get loom in

09:49:25.620 --> 09:49:27.620
Well, there are now it's like

09:49:29.620 --> 09:49:31.620
Yes

09:49:34.020 --> 09:49:39.420
He's not going out though. Oh my god. He's really going to handbills and villager

09:49:40.420 --> 09:49:43.060
Wow, oh, but you both can't watch this couch

09:49:43.060 --> 09:49:48.860
He could be a talent center drop, he's hiding his bills, but you don't need to be scared,

09:49:48.860 --> 09:49:49.860
Grubby will lose his scouts.

09:49:49.860 --> 09:49:55.180
Bro that would be iconic, but he first has to get in and then drop the PC on Grubby's

09:49:55.180 --> 09:49:56.180
PC.

09:49:56.180 --> 09:49:58.980
That's so interesting, yeah maybe he's doing that, maybe he's actually doing the doosh,

09:49:58.980 --> 09:50:02.980
so I've seen it work before, you tower us to break in and then once you're in you drop

09:50:02.980 --> 09:50:07.740
the talent center onto Grubby, that's crazy, if he does that, that's legendary, Captain

09:50:07.740 --> 09:50:10.220
Lads could be cooking up the strategy of the tournament right now.

09:50:10.220 --> 09:50:12.820
Dude it has to be that, that's the reason for the purge.

09:50:12.820 --> 09:50:13.820
It has to be.

09:50:13.820 --> 09:50:14.820
Oh my god.

09:50:14.820 --> 09:50:15.820
How are it to do?

09:50:15.820 --> 09:50:17.820
We have to get inside first.

09:50:17.820 --> 09:50:18.820
He's hit a ton.

09:50:18.820 --> 09:50:20.820
It looks like the wall back.

09:50:20.820 --> 09:50:22.820
Dude, I don't know.

09:50:22.820 --> 09:50:24.820
We'll never have played against it before.

09:50:24.820 --> 09:50:25.820
Look at the gates.

09:50:25.820 --> 09:50:26.820
Look at the gates.

09:50:26.820 --> 09:50:27.820
Such a tool.

09:50:27.820 --> 09:50:28.820
Oh my god.

09:50:28.820 --> 09:50:31.700
Dirty chicks from Lance.

09:50:31.700 --> 09:50:33.220
One gate on a diagonal piece.

09:50:33.220 --> 09:50:34.220
You can't wall behind.

09:50:34.220 --> 09:50:35.820
Grubby is just forced to defend.

09:50:35.820 --> 09:50:36.820
Let's see how he adapts.

09:50:36.820 --> 09:50:37.820
He's made the barracks.

09:50:37.820 --> 09:50:40.740
He's made the house.

09:50:40.740 --> 09:50:41.740
This is insane.

09:50:41.740 --> 09:50:46.860
about to see the strategy of the tournament from Lance, if indeed it is that, dude, the

09:50:46.860 --> 09:50:51.180
way the cows are positioned near the berries tells me this town center, it has to be, it

09:50:51.180 --> 09:50:53.380
has to be, it's going to be deleted.

09:50:53.380 --> 09:50:55.660
Let me explain this to the chat.

09:50:55.660 --> 09:50:56.660
Let me explain this to the chat.

09:50:56.660 --> 09:51:00.180
People here have never seen this strategy before with Persians, your town center is

09:51:00.180 --> 09:51:01.180
double HP.

09:51:01.180 --> 09:51:05.980
Now, you can make another town center forward, but only if you delete the one at home.

09:51:05.980 --> 09:51:10.700
So deleting your town center, which is never advised, but to make one forward with Persians,

09:51:10.700 --> 09:51:13.900
You can take out your phone at town center and that is what Lance is trying to do, but

09:51:13.900 --> 09:51:17.580
first he's got to get into the Grubby's base, talk to me Lewis, what are you feeling here?

09:51:17.580 --> 09:51:21.740
He's going to say I was really curious why I had so many Vils on Woods, because I was

09:51:21.740 --> 09:51:23.020
like wait, did you mess up the build?

09:51:23.020 --> 09:51:27.340
Because normally you have Vils on the TSC to maintain Ville production, but I don't

09:51:27.340 --> 09:51:28.700
think Lance wants any more Vils.

09:51:28.700 --> 09:51:29.700
Yeah.

09:51:29.700 --> 09:51:32.540
I was with a Stonewall, which is very interesting, I'm not sure why he made that Stonewall

09:51:32.540 --> 09:51:33.540
left though.

09:51:33.540 --> 09:51:36.940
He's just worried about Grubby attacking him, Grubby's on a Stonewall behind.

09:51:36.940 --> 09:51:41.700
Black is to find a way in though, he's not getting in right now, this is just a tower

09:51:41.700 --> 09:51:44.060
I don't have space to make a base when you were...

09:51:44.060 --> 09:51:46.380
No loom! No loom for Grubby!

09:51:46.380 --> 09:51:49.440
He gets it now though, okay okay, it's fine, it's fine, it's fine, it's coming in, one

09:51:49.440 --> 09:51:50.440
build down though.

09:51:50.440 --> 09:51:52.340
Why does he place a town center?

09:51:52.340 --> 09:51:53.980
I think it has to be on the right side, right?

09:51:53.980 --> 09:51:54.980
Right side.

09:51:54.980 --> 09:51:55.980
There's only houses on the left.

09:51:55.980 --> 09:51:56.980
Yeah, right here.

09:51:56.980 --> 09:51:57.980
But Grubby goes for the stone walls.

09:51:57.980 --> 09:52:00.580
It has to be on Grubby's choosy as well, otherwise there's no point.

09:52:00.580 --> 09:52:01.580
Yeah, exactly.

09:52:01.580 --> 09:52:02.580
Sometimes like a year.

09:52:02.580 --> 09:52:03.580
I was looking for this Fidica.

09:52:03.580 --> 09:52:05.580
I

09:52:06.220 --> 09:52:11.940
Got enough for castlage, but grubby grubby's going stable into this which is okay, but like he's not gonna really have the food

09:52:11.940 --> 09:52:14.500
Oh, oh, oh, we're going in

09:52:18.260 --> 09:52:20.260
Life

09:52:22.660 --> 09:52:25.820
Lance I'm so happy Lanson bleep it easy. Yeah

09:52:33.580 --> 09:52:38.340
Make it again in a second. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. He lost it. He built it with one for you

09:52:38.340 --> 09:52:42.780
No, he's making a house. Oh my god. He's in quick bald. No freaking way

09:52:42.780 --> 09:52:48.640
What are the choke of the finals? How can you lose it? He's gonna go for it again though, but hold on whoa whoa whoa whoa

09:52:49.460 --> 09:52:51.460
He's the wall he gets the wall

09:52:52.500 --> 09:52:54.500
He's gonna go up dude. Oh

09:52:55.060 --> 09:53:01.420
My god, that was insane instant replay real quick instant replay when take a look what exactly what happened before he went in

09:53:01.420 --> 09:53:04.980
He tried to squeeze it in there with one villager take a look at this instant replay

09:53:04.980 --> 09:53:10.340
He makes it and loses it instantly because only one bill built it and grab you had the garrison back to life though back to live

09:53:10.340 --> 09:53:12.540
Here we go counts that is going up. Oh

09:53:14.900 --> 09:53:16.900
My god Lance

09:53:17.660 --> 09:53:23.260
That's what a crazy strategy. What a freaking madman. He deserves a respect about what happens

09:53:23.260 --> 09:53:29.420
But flexing is coming in. This is grubby's worst worst nightmare by the way grubby's worst nightmare is this right here

09:53:29.420 --> 09:53:35.860
wait look at grubby's lumber camp like grubby's gonna lose his foot access soon

09:53:35.860 --> 09:53:43.660
oh a matze rush oh my god you run out of wood you run out of wood this could get

09:53:43.660 --> 09:53:46.580
towered by the way. Grubby will be in castleage but he won't have any food or any

09:53:46.580 --> 09:53:51.460
rest to do anything yeah I can't believe that despite Lance losing his town

09:53:51.460 --> 09:53:55.420
center and deleting the one at home he still has a chance to win if you can

09:53:55.420 --> 09:53:59.220
target the wood from Grubby. Grubby is forced to repair because he's up to

09:53:59.220 --> 09:54:04.680
Castle Age. He's forced to repair, but he's so low on economy and Grubby's not

09:54:04.680 --> 09:54:08.620
experienced against this. I can state for a fact this has never happened to

09:54:08.620 --> 09:54:12.100
Grubby on Arena and Grubby's actually misplaying. He's trying to fight it with

09:54:12.100 --> 09:54:15.580
10 villagers in the Town Center. You're not supposed to do this. You're supposed

09:54:15.580 --> 09:54:18.300
to do this against everything that's not a Persian Town Center. Grubby is

09:54:18.300 --> 09:54:22.820
misplaying. Ladies and gentlemen, Grubby could lose this game despite everything.

09:54:22.820 --> 09:54:28.820
I think Rubby's dead. Like look at his resources. You get to castage, you can't make a siege workshop because you're not so preparing your TC.

09:54:28.820 --> 09:54:30.820
Your woodlands get entourished.

09:54:30.820 --> 09:54:32.820
Ten of those, I don't know for no reason.

09:54:32.820 --> 09:54:39.820
And again, Lance only has four of those on wood. Rubby has seven, so he has way more wood income, so he can repair longer I guess.

09:54:39.820 --> 09:54:44.820
But Lance has a lot of those on stone, he can just move them over, so he's gonna have a total of eleven if any of you thinks about that.

09:54:44.820 --> 09:54:48.820
I think Rubby is in trouble.

09:54:48.820 --> 09:54:53.040
I said make another lumber camp at least so would not be that big of an issue

09:54:54.220 --> 09:54:56.940
Grab a shot of fight this one, but well actually

09:54:57.220 --> 09:55:02.300
No, it's hard to win against Persians how it works is you you repair twice as fast with Persians, right?

09:55:03.300 --> 09:55:09.140
Because you have the double HP so you can never win versus Persian counselor even trying is usually suicide the grab

09:55:09.140 --> 09:55:10.580
You should abandon this

09:55:10.580 --> 09:55:12.580
Is it cheap it's repair as well?

09:55:12.700 --> 09:55:15.900
Well, you get double the value of the same price. So yeah, it is cheaper. Yeah

09:55:15.900 --> 09:55:18.900
Yeah, her HP is pretty much good.

09:55:18.900 --> 09:55:25.900
That's the small thing, is when Lance takes out Grubby's TC, Grubby makes a new one, Lance can also do that one again, so it's...

09:55:26.900 --> 09:55:28.900
We're getting haunted by those TCs.

09:55:28.900 --> 09:55:32.900
I can't believe you pulled us out in a freaking finals of a tournament.

09:55:32.900 --> 09:55:33.900
What a char, bro.

09:55:33.900 --> 09:55:42.900
He's down 0-2. The Path of Esau community is well represented in Lance. This guy is a freaking animal, in the best way possible. What an absolute beast.

09:55:42.900 --> 09:55:46.900
I think when she goes to the finals honestly, like, scrub the rest of the sets.

09:55:46.900 --> 09:55:48.900
No, no, no, that's dangerous.

09:55:48.900 --> 09:55:50.900
Oh, it's Grubby, it's Grubby we're talking about here, hold on.

09:55:50.900 --> 09:55:53.900
It is Grubby we're talking about. Better watch your mouth, eh?

09:55:54.900 --> 09:55:56.900
But he still has a chance.

09:55:56.900 --> 09:55:58.900
Still has a chance, still has a chance.

09:55:58.900 --> 09:56:00.900
Can't be too nice to Grubby.

09:56:01.900 --> 09:56:03.900
He's trying to break through that house.

09:56:04.900 --> 09:56:06.900
Grubby has to get some military out.

09:56:07.900 --> 09:56:10.900
Yeah, he wants to make a workshop, but he doesn't have a blacksmith.

09:56:10.900 --> 09:56:12.900
Oh

09:56:12.900 --> 09:56:15.420
The one time you make a you make a stable in the market

09:56:16.700 --> 09:56:21.800
The one time you don't go for the blacksmith you need it for the workshop guys grubby's got no wood

09:56:22.180 --> 09:56:26.300
He can't make anything. He's got 69 food. He's a hundred seventy three gold

09:56:26.860 --> 09:56:31.260
It's a terrible situation. It's quick-rolling brother. There's nothing to quick-roll to Lance's more than half

09:56:31.260 --> 09:56:36.420
That's the 10th villager lead last at the school. I can't believe this is working for Lance

09:56:36.420 --> 09:56:40.820
I can't believe he tried this. I can't believe it's working and grubby's in such

09:56:40.820 --> 09:56:45.500
This is grubby's worst nightmare. This will send grubby spiraling mentally by the way

09:56:45.500 --> 09:56:52.100
This is the worst case scenario for grubby being O2 up and losing to this would be disastrous for his mentals

09:56:53.580 --> 09:56:59.160
See workshop, but no one would find so much fun. He still has the market, which is very valuable here. Yeah

09:57:00.700 --> 09:57:01.940
Lancet

09:57:01.940 --> 09:57:04.620
Dude, you can't fight this. It's a tower. You can't fight this.

09:57:04.620 --> 09:57:06.780
Last is more than half here. Dude, there's Grubby's in trouble.

09:57:06.780 --> 09:57:09.660
Grubby's about to die to a huge honorina.

09:57:09.660 --> 09:57:11.380
I can't believe this is happening.

09:57:11.380 --> 09:57:13.580
After Captain Lance lost his townsitter,

09:57:13.580 --> 09:57:17.380
this is by far more ridiculous than any other strategy we've seen in this tournament.

09:57:17.380 --> 09:57:19.060
The king's got the continues to deliver,

09:57:19.060 --> 09:57:20.780
but Grubby's kind of winning here somehow.

09:57:20.780 --> 09:57:21.780
He got more Vils.

09:57:23.220 --> 09:57:25.900
This is good for Lance. Lance has 30 Vils. Grubby has 15.

09:57:25.900 --> 09:57:29.660
And Grubby has no DC, so all these fights are good for Lance.

09:57:29.660 --> 09:57:36.800
Anyville that dies is permanent losses until we get a counselor. I can't believe that last is actually winning the strategy

09:57:38.140 --> 09:57:42.020
I'm looking at grubby's res. I don't think I second TC's going this game. Wow

09:57:43.460 --> 09:57:45.740
The last four years 12 bills

09:57:46.540 --> 09:57:50.100
This group get defeated with bills. What do you guys think? I think

09:57:50.660 --> 09:57:53.740
Will not call the GG. He's gonna play to the bitter end. Honestly

09:57:53.740 --> 09:58:00.740
It's so sad for Grubby.

09:58:00.740 --> 09:58:04.020
I have no words to describe what we're seeing right now.

09:58:04.020 --> 09:58:06.940
Grubby is buying 100 wood from the last gold he's got.

09:58:06.940 --> 09:58:12.220
He's saying, if one last scorpion for Grubby, it's so sad.

09:58:12.220 --> 09:58:14.060
And the GG's called.

09:58:14.060 --> 09:58:16.820
Grubby taps out and Lance takes the win.

09:58:16.820 --> 09:58:18.620
GG in the chat.

09:58:18.620 --> 09:58:23.260
Cinema spam because Lance has just tried a strategy that should never work.

09:58:23.260 --> 09:58:28.220
even lost his first Townsender after deleting the one at home. We thought he was dead in the waters.

09:58:28.220 --> 09:58:33.020
I was preparing Lance's funeral. I was singing praises of Grubby and how defending this has been

09:58:33.020 --> 09:58:38.780
the easiest thing of his life, but somehow Lance squeezes in the Townsender and Grubby incorrectly

09:58:38.780 --> 09:58:43.740
tries to fight the Persian Townsender douche. You never want to fight it. You can fight any other

09:58:43.740 --> 09:58:50.860
Siv, maybe barring two Tins, Byzantines, but certainly not the Persians. And Lance takes the

09:58:50.860 --> 09:58:55.580
win keeps himself alive in this loser's finals if grubby is not tilted he's

09:58:55.580 --> 09:58:59.500
untiltable but something tells me he's a bit rattled mentally that's a hard

09:58:59.500 --> 09:59:04.700
strategy to lose to right now looks so happy and groovy looks so mad right now

09:59:04.700 --> 09:59:09.060
looking at the webcams look at Lance he's so happy he deserves it bro he's

09:59:09.060 --> 09:59:13.940
just jumping around which is like yeah and also this is after losing his town

09:59:13.940 --> 09:59:18.580
center but he lost the first town center he plays and it's not like destroyed

09:59:18.580 --> 09:59:22.580
That's crazy, HROX has unbelievable game.

09:59:22.580 --> 09:59:25.580
Dude, I have no words for what Lance just pulled off.

09:59:25.580 --> 09:59:27.580
I want to watch it again, honestly.

09:59:27.580 --> 09:59:29.580
I want to watch it again. It's so fun.

09:59:29.580 --> 09:59:32.580
But of course, we're going to move on to Grubby's home map.

09:59:32.580 --> 09:59:34.580
Dude, man, it's just so insane.

09:59:34.580 --> 09:59:38.580
Just hop in the wall, go for the tower rush.

09:59:38.580 --> 09:59:40.580
We even lost our first Townsender.

09:59:40.580 --> 09:59:44.580
We lost our initial Townsender right here, a bit earlier.

09:59:44.580 --> 09:59:46.580
Townsender goes down.

09:59:46.580 --> 09:59:53.980
dude like screen shot here screen shot here he even lost the TC yeah it's like

09:59:53.980 --> 09:59:59.260
red wins how does red win this he just lost it's got nothing bro he's got

09:59:59.260 --> 10:00:05.380
literally nothing I I have no words honestly but Lance bro Lance freaking

10:00:05.380 --> 10:00:10.540
captain Lance bro what an absolute savage well you change his name from

10:00:10.540 --> 10:00:14.660
captain Lance Lance yeah he's just Lance but still he's earned the captain I

10:00:14.660 --> 10:00:22.500
should put it back. I'll use the washroom ladies and gents beer back and feel free to entertain a

10:00:22.500 --> 10:00:26.100
little bit here. Lewis and Leery while we wait for the next game. Timby Grubb is home map probably

10:00:26.100 --> 10:00:36.900
Arabia but you never know beer back. Go on Leery, you got some. What are we expecting from Lance?

10:00:36.900 --> 10:00:42.180
What are we expecting there's no way you'll play there's no way you will play standard on Arabia

10:00:43.620 --> 10:00:45.620
Um

10:00:46.180 --> 10:00:47.860
So the douche option is gone

10:00:47.860 --> 10:00:49.860
Tower rush, maybe cuteness

10:00:50.100 --> 10:00:52.100
Maybe grubby goes back to arena. Who knows?

10:00:52.580 --> 10:00:53.700
Yeah, right

10:00:53.700 --> 10:00:55.940
He just got traumatized for life on arena

10:00:57.060 --> 10:01:01.460
I haven't watched captain lance play much in arabia. I'm guessing he's like more of a clownish type of uh

10:01:01.780 --> 10:01:04.580
I think he has some phosphorous strats up his sleeves

10:01:04.580 --> 10:01:11.740
I mean like he's playing very well. I think honestly I think the best thing Lance can do is play aggressive

10:01:11.740 --> 10:01:15.460
Like I think whenever Grubby is getting attacked. He's always having issues

10:01:16.060 --> 10:01:21.780
But whenever Grubby's attacking he's looking really really solid. So I think Lance needs to do something aggressive

10:01:22.420 --> 10:01:30.100
Maybe like a magia scout rush, V is forward, scout is forward, something super simple, but like I could catch him off guard

10:01:31.420 --> 10:01:33.180
Yeah

10:01:33.180 --> 10:01:38.180
I'm thinking of Cisred now. I feel like Grubby will go Ethiopians.

10:01:39.180 --> 10:01:41.180
Yeah, maybe.

10:01:41.180 --> 10:01:45.180
That's one of his best tips, and it's more or less easy to punish as well.

10:01:46.180 --> 10:01:49.180
Whatever Lance will do, I feel like Lance might go for some Phosphor or something.

10:01:50.180 --> 10:01:52.180
You're team Grubby, right, Liri?

10:01:52.180 --> 10:01:54.180
I am team Grubby.

10:01:54.180 --> 10:01:56.180
Okay, I'll be team Lance.

10:01:56.180 --> 10:01:57.180
What's your predictions?

10:01:57.180 --> 10:01:58.180
I'm a coach with him.

10:01:58.180 --> 10:02:02.180
I'm predicting a comeback. I didn't coach him, but I'm so predicting Lance wins.

10:02:03.180 --> 10:02:06.460
Well, thank god you didn't coach him, otherwise he would have bombed out round one.

10:02:08.460 --> 10:02:09.580
Bro, like...

10:02:09.980 --> 10:02:14.380
Okay, so I think Lance seems to do something very, very aggressive. What do you think about that?

10:02:15.580 --> 10:02:16.540
I agree.

10:02:17.420 --> 10:02:18.300
I agree.

10:02:19.260 --> 10:02:20.620
I'm back. What do you mean?

10:02:20.620 --> 10:02:22.220
This game was very aggressive.

10:02:23.180 --> 10:02:24.780
He sent his boys to fight.

10:02:24.780 --> 10:02:26.220
He sent his whole town.

10:02:26.700 --> 10:02:27.900
He sent the children as well.

10:02:28.460 --> 10:02:32.060
He sent everyone, like there were no kids or women left behind.

10:02:32.060 --> 10:02:37.460
crazy yeah so we were discussing that personally I think Lance needs to play

10:02:37.460 --> 10:02:42.460
aggressive like a simple Mike yeah scouts be as forward maybe like a man at

10:02:42.460 --> 10:02:45.900
hand those are Japanese that's not happening something impressive he does

10:02:45.900 --> 10:02:49.540
exactly what he's gonna do he's gonna he's gonna fossil rush he does not play

10:02:49.540 --> 10:02:53.700
standard on Arabia he never has and I don't think it's gonna start now I mean

10:02:53.700 --> 10:02:56.540
he might maybe you'll surprise everybody knows that I'm pretty sure Grubby knows

10:02:56.540 --> 10:03:00.860
that yeah Grubby knows that try some mad arm archer pressure potentially I

10:03:00.860 --> 10:03:04.740
I wouldn't be surprised as well if Grubby tries to pressure it, but I think Captain Lance will stick to his guns.

10:03:04.740 --> 10:03:09.540
He's played Bulgarians, Krepos, Rush, he has played, what else has he played yet?

10:03:09.540 --> 10:03:14.500
It's been his main one, he's played, um, I'm blanking out now.

10:03:14.500 --> 10:03:19.900
He tried a bit of Romans, I guess, but he looked too hot on the men of arms with Romans.

10:03:19.900 --> 10:03:21.540
Bohemians? They play Bohemians?

10:03:21.540 --> 10:03:24.100
He tried to Scyllians-Dush, okay?

10:03:24.100 --> 10:03:25.180
Scyllians.

10:03:25.180 --> 10:03:26.540
Yeah, but it didn't, most of the Bulgarians.

10:03:26.540 --> 10:03:28.900
Is that anything special with Dush?

10:03:28.900 --> 10:03:34.140
He played standard Koreans as well, since they didn't usually build it faster and they repair it easier

10:03:34.980 --> 10:03:36.980
But he's

10:03:38.060 --> 10:03:40.060
Not too bad

10:03:41.620 --> 10:03:45.960
Also, thank you to Briar Jones for the 20 gifted memberships on YouTube earlier

10:03:46.220 --> 10:03:50.840
Thank you to all the primes and tier ones on Twitch. Thank you all for the support. I

10:03:51.580 --> 10:03:55.360
Don't think we'll see a douche now. I think we'll see maybe Koreans maybe Bulgarians

10:03:55.360 --> 10:03:59.440
But I think Volgarian's first, honestly, is what we'll see out of Captain Lance if I had a guess.

10:04:00.040 --> 10:04:02.760
I doubt he'll play like a standard Scout Rush though, there's no way.

10:04:05.840 --> 10:04:10.760
I mean, there's also the Roman player where you go like mana times with the plus two armor and feud legions.

10:04:10.760 --> 10:04:11.760
That's the most standard.

10:04:12.760 --> 10:04:14.600
I mean, yeah, but...

10:04:14.760 --> 10:04:19.120
That's been the most popular strategy of this event, the Roman Miner Arms in two longswords.

10:04:19.120 --> 10:04:20.280
It has a very high win rate.

10:04:20.280 --> 10:04:21.200
I remember like five times.

10:04:21.200 --> 10:04:24.520
Yeah, it has a very high win rate in this tournament.

10:04:24.520 --> 10:04:29.040
but you thermal kind of showed out of counter it's with like a lot of archers I

10:04:29.040 --> 10:04:32.800
don't know if that's in a really catch grubby off-guard and also captain Lance

10:04:32.800 --> 10:04:36.520
really it's been a look that hot on Romans I will say some of the chest and

10:04:36.520 --> 10:04:42.400
go jabbo brother jabbo jabbo was being out of the tournament in fact jabbo was

10:04:42.400 --> 10:04:46.000
never really in the actual tournament but I like to support it's a good first

10:04:46.000 --> 10:04:49.920
time chat from wrecking to the redeemed I like the support for jabbo he deserves

10:04:49.920 --> 10:04:54.000
they's a cool guy honest I love jabbo all the love in the world for jabbo but

10:04:54.000 --> 10:05:00.000
So right now you gotta support Captain Lance, or maybe Pig, maybe Grubby, you got 3 options.

10:05:00.000 --> 10:05:03.760
Otherwise you're just supporting ghosts.

10:05:03.760 --> 10:05:11.400
The people in the graves, fallen warriors.

10:05:11.400 --> 10:05:15.080
I wanted to get Viper and Doubt for a cast at some point for the tournament, I wasn't

10:05:15.080 --> 10:05:17.480
really able to lock it down though.

10:05:17.480 --> 10:05:21.200
Are you not happy with your current co-castes?

10:05:21.200 --> 10:05:23.480
No, no, I love my current co-casts.

10:05:23.480 --> 10:05:24.680
I got something to say here.

10:05:24.680 --> 10:05:26.600
No, no, no, no, no.

10:05:26.600 --> 10:05:27.440
Don't get me wrong.

10:05:27.440 --> 10:05:28.760
Nice meeting you all soon, right?

10:05:28.760 --> 10:05:30.760
Like, yeah, have a nice day.

10:05:30.760 --> 10:05:32.440
Dude, that would be so BM if it was like,

10:05:32.440 --> 10:05:34.080
oh, I'm stuck with Lewis and Leery.

10:05:34.080 --> 10:05:36.000
I really wanted Viper.

10:05:36.000 --> 10:05:37.040
Kind of like when I talk about it.

10:05:37.040 --> 10:05:41.840
I'd like to get Viper, T90, couldn't make it.

10:05:41.840 --> 10:05:43.880
Now we have two Ls here.

10:05:43.880 --> 10:05:44.960
Yeah, the double Ls.

10:05:44.960 --> 10:05:46.080
I have gave you something.

10:05:46.080 --> 10:05:46.920
Oh, thank you.

10:05:46.920 --> 10:05:48.240
It's from the US from Roxy.

10:05:48.240 --> 10:05:50.760
They said it's 26 months gift that's up from Lewis.

10:05:50.760 --> 10:05:52.160
Thank you, man.

10:05:52.160 --> 10:05:57.640
I've never sucked a channel once by the way. It's always rocks just giving me subs like it's crazy. Yeah

10:05:58.340 --> 10:06:00.340
same I think

10:06:00.420 --> 10:06:04.340
You guys don't support me you guys just co-cast me. That's why I'm waiting for vibrant out. They would gift

10:06:07.460 --> 10:06:09.620
Waiting I think to be an eraser now. They didn't come

10:06:10.260 --> 10:06:15.260
Grubby is home mapping the Arabia makes a lot of sense. You wouldn't take Captain Lance back to arena

10:06:15.260 --> 10:06:17.260
Especially after what we just saw there

10:06:17.980 --> 10:06:19.660
Imagine it picks arena

10:06:19.660 --> 10:06:20.660
No, no, no, no.

10:06:20.660 --> 10:06:21.660
That's my game.

10:06:21.660 --> 10:06:22.940
Grubby sat on Arabia.

10:06:22.940 --> 10:06:25.060
It's almost guaranteed.

10:06:25.060 --> 10:06:29.940
I will say, how's Viper, not Viper, I got a guy in my head, but how's Grubby's mental

10:06:29.940 --> 10:06:31.220
after this game?

10:06:31.220 --> 10:06:32.540
Is he feeling okay?

10:06:32.540 --> 10:06:36.860
I hope he's composed, because I think the worst thing that can happen is you go tilt

10:06:36.860 --> 10:06:37.860
into the next game.

10:06:37.860 --> 10:06:38.860
There's very little guy.

10:06:38.860 --> 10:06:39.860
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

10:06:39.860 --> 10:06:40.860
Just, just talk it up.

10:06:40.860 --> 10:06:42.620
This is something really random that happened.

10:06:42.620 --> 10:06:43.620
It is what it is.

10:06:43.620 --> 10:06:44.660
You lost some BS.

10:06:44.660 --> 10:06:45.660
It's fine.

10:06:45.660 --> 10:06:46.660
Yeah.

10:06:46.660 --> 10:06:48.460
Grubby just has to get back into his comfort zone, into his groove.

10:06:48.460 --> 10:06:49.460
You've all been there.

10:06:49.460 --> 10:06:53.380
Play that shit on Arabia. He knows he's got Ethiopians. He's got you know, I think the enemies was used

10:06:53.380 --> 10:06:55.020
You got Ethiopians

10:06:55.020 --> 10:06:59.500
He's got a bunch of civilizations you can pull out here lattice things that attend gifted subs by the way

10:06:59.780 --> 10:07:01.780
Really appreciate that bro

10:07:02.500 --> 10:07:07.820
Very nice support call him Hera the guys that the host cannot call grubby. It's like a half

10:07:14.300 --> 10:07:18.420
They're both gone quick break. Yeah quick break

10:07:19.460 --> 10:07:21.460
It's like those Hera breaks, right?

10:07:22.460 --> 10:07:25.460
What do you mean those Hera breaks? Like I make...

10:07:25.460 --> 10:07:28.460
Whenever you play this, it's hair in its ornament, it's like a 10 minute break.

10:07:28.460 --> 10:07:31.460
He loses a game, he's gone for 10 minutes. I don't know what he's gone through.

10:07:31.460 --> 10:07:34.460
Like, he's just off for 10 minutes. It's insane.

10:07:35.460 --> 10:07:38.460
And I don't blame you, like I think it's a smart thing to do, but...

10:07:38.460 --> 10:07:43.460
It's so not true. Sometimes I gotta go to the washroom, sometimes I gotta, you know, answer a call from Grubby.

10:07:43.460 --> 10:07:46.460
Sometimes I gotta eat something, that's usually what I have to do.

10:07:46.460 --> 10:07:50.860
to do, but dude, nothing's got things to do, man.

10:07:50.860 --> 10:07:52.180
Rod, instead of five, get it, by the way.

10:07:52.180 --> 10:07:54.580
Thank you, Rod, for the big support during the events.

10:07:58.300 --> 10:08:00.540
Yeah, just got a small couple of texts from Grubby.

10:08:00.540 --> 10:08:02.820
I'm just gonna answer these real quick.

10:08:02.820 --> 10:08:03.860
I've actually got a question,

10:08:03.860 --> 10:08:05.260
like a serious question, Hera.

10:08:05.260 --> 10:08:06.080
Yeah?

10:08:06.080 --> 10:08:08.820
Like, when you walk away from the PC, like, what do you do?

10:08:08.820 --> 10:08:10.380
Can you actually walk us through,

10:08:10.380 --> 10:08:11.740
like, what do you actually do?

10:08:11.740 --> 10:08:12.580
All right, so when I walk into the PC.

10:08:12.580 --> 10:08:13.980
Loose needs to copy a routine.

10:08:13.980 --> 10:08:15.820
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's interesting.

10:08:15.820 --> 10:08:20.700
So, when I walk away from the PC, normally I have my phone.

10:08:20.700 --> 10:08:23.220
So I'll open up the picture, maybe some Uber Eats,

10:08:23.220 --> 10:08:24.180
and maybe I have the food.

10:08:24.180 --> 10:08:26.660
So I'll walk away from my PC, I'll walk to the fridge,

10:08:26.660 --> 10:08:28.180
open the fridge, take some food out,

10:08:28.180 --> 10:08:30.740
a little leftovers, close the fridge,

10:08:30.740 --> 10:08:33.020
take a little drink, bring the food to the microwave,

10:08:33.020 --> 10:08:35.180
put it in the microwave usually around two minutes,

10:08:35.180 --> 10:08:38.820
walk around while it loads, while it microwaves

10:08:38.820 --> 10:08:40.380
so I can burn some calories,

10:08:40.380 --> 10:08:42.060
and then I just take the food out of the microwave

10:08:42.060 --> 10:08:43.620
and eat it.

10:08:43.620 --> 10:08:44.460
Let's use your idea.

10:08:44.460 --> 10:08:46.460
How many steps a day you do?

10:08:46.460 --> 10:08:48.460
How many steps a day?

10:08:48.460 --> 10:08:51.460
I did like a thousand steps minimum, I would say.

10:08:51.460 --> 10:08:53.460
Just kind of walking from the refrigerator to the computer.

10:08:53.460 --> 10:08:54.460
That's not too bad.

10:08:54.460 --> 10:08:55.460
It's pretty good, yeah.

10:08:55.460 --> 10:08:57.460
A lot of, you know, obviously.

10:08:57.460 --> 10:09:01.460
A lot of food breaks, a lot of walking as well.

10:09:01.460 --> 10:09:03.460
But I went out for a walk today.

10:09:03.460 --> 10:09:04.460
Like, it's not bad.

10:09:04.460 --> 10:09:06.460
I actually went out for a walk today.

10:09:06.460 --> 10:09:08.460
I mean, honestly, more than what most people do.

10:09:08.460 --> 10:09:10.460
Especially as gamers, so, you know.

10:09:10.460 --> 10:09:11.460
Yeah, it's not bad.

10:09:11.460 --> 10:09:12.460
Oh, shit.

10:09:12.460 --> 10:09:13.460
Don't argue in the chat.

10:09:13.460 --> 10:09:19.700
underrated. He said, did I lose my VIP? Yes, guys, I got caught right now. Don already is a former VIP. I have

10:09:19.700 --> 10:09:24.660
unvip you because I needed slots to VIP the players of the tournament. Super caught. Sorry, Don already,

10:09:24.660 --> 10:09:28.340
you're cool guy, but you're not VIP anymore, and you're never going to get it back. Sorry, man. You're

10:09:28.340 --> 10:09:33.100
cool guy though. Anyway, we'll hop in right in. The next game has started. And it's match point

10:09:33.100 --> 10:09:37.980
grubby, but Captain Lance is starting a special kind of comeback right now. And it's gonna be the

10:09:37.980 --> 10:09:43.180
Ethiopians for Grubby and the Incas for Captain Lance. Ladies and gentlemen, let's hop right in

10:09:43.180 --> 10:09:46.940
and let's break down exactly what we're seeing. I can't lie, I feel like the Ethiopians

10:09:46.940 --> 10:09:50.620
have been kind of hit or miss for Grubby. I feel like he's lost a lot of the games he's tried

10:09:50.620 --> 10:09:55.820
to win with Ethiopians. I think he's lost like two of his last two games. Maybe they've worked

10:09:55.820 --> 10:09:59.500
earlier, but they're not working versus the top of the table. The top way through this matchup is

10:09:59.500 --> 10:10:03.500
I fixed the cameras real quick. Oh, never mind, they're fine. So, okay, top way through the matchups anyways.

10:10:03.500 --> 10:10:13.980
I was wondering, maybe you want to lame or something? I thought there was a village already

10:10:13.980 --> 10:10:18.420
coming or like maybe a douche earlier than usual.

10:10:18.420 --> 10:10:23.700
I think this is interesting, I feel like in Spain.

10:10:23.700 --> 10:10:29.980
Yeah, Inca's not having access to any horses in any way or sort of form, so naturally you

10:10:29.980 --> 10:10:36.220
see only infantry or ranged units. Most likely in Lance's case, Champies, if I had to guess,

10:10:36.220 --> 10:10:39.100
and some towers maybe. Tower Rush, very popular.

10:10:39.100 --> 10:10:44.860
You tried that earlier versus Pig, you tried the Champy Tower Rush, but it didn't work.

10:10:44.860 --> 10:10:49.180
It actually was quite bad, and not like it was a terrible strategy, but it didn't work,

10:10:49.180 --> 10:10:54.300
like it didn't work out well at all. He got completely destroyed by Pig, and Grubby, if anything,

10:10:54.300 --> 10:10:58.780
maybe even a slightly stronger like Minotaur Marcher player than Pig, and that's exactly what

10:10:58.780 --> 10:11:03.100
pick it done so I'm not sure if you're going to try that again the other strategy you can go for is

10:11:03.100 --> 10:11:08.220
maybe some kind of phosphor rush you can try to go for something like you know a few uh few

10:11:08.220 --> 10:11:13.420
villagers on stone try to fastcast so get into like the you know the ink of camiukes plus ram

10:11:13.420 --> 10:11:17.820
something like that could be interesting um we kind of know what to expect from Grubby though

10:11:17.820 --> 10:11:23.020
he's been doing men arms into archers quite a lot with Ethiopians oh look at that settlement spot

10:11:23.020 --> 10:11:30.700
juicy and also like with the settlement you get 10 population right so ideally

10:11:30.700 --> 10:11:33.580
you don't even make those two houses just make one house at the start that's

10:11:33.580 --> 10:11:37.300
all you need it's interesting yeah one house make the settlement it's got a

10:11:37.300 --> 10:11:40.220
cool adaptation of the increase

10:11:41.900 --> 10:11:45.780
yeah that's so much interesting it's gonna be good for the berries it's gonna be

10:11:45.780 --> 10:11:52.180
good for the wooden come and actually it counts as like two buildings to go up

10:11:52.180 --> 10:11:55.820
the next stage so like Lance can already go up due to the settlements so he'll

10:11:55.820 --> 10:12:01.180
take a little bit of Barry here with one bill, see me nice for his food and come.

10:12:01.780 --> 10:12:10.500
Probably will most likely open mad arms hold in the best way to punish like

10:12:10.500 --> 10:12:13.860
stuff you don't know or stuff you don't know what's coming it's kind of like

10:12:13.860 --> 10:12:17.620
playing aggressive because you kind of ruin the guys build if it's false through

10:12:17.620 --> 10:12:21.380
you're already on in his base putting pressure if it's something else you're

10:12:21.380 --> 10:12:24.140
still doing good damage with my arm so I can't really go wrong with that.

10:12:24.140 --> 10:12:25.140
Yeah, yeah.

10:12:25.140 --> 10:12:26.140
So that's always going to get some value.

10:12:26.140 --> 10:12:27.140
That's a map.

10:12:27.140 --> 10:12:30.500
Yeah, it's always good against stuff where you don't know what's happening.

10:12:30.500 --> 10:12:35.980
Also, can I just say like respect to Lance for playing against Gropy, Hera, and Leery.

10:12:35.980 --> 10:12:41.340
Like this is, I swear you've walked in through the game plan of every single game he's played

10:12:41.340 --> 10:12:42.340
so far.

10:12:42.340 --> 10:12:44.340
And like Lance is playing versus three right now, so.

10:12:44.340 --> 10:12:47.540
I'm pretty sure Lance is more against the me than we did.

10:12:47.540 --> 10:12:49.540
Yeah, Lance is playing a lot.

10:12:49.540 --> 10:12:53.300
He's got his own fair share of advantages, to be fair.

10:12:53.300 --> 10:12:55.540
By the way, Grubby did fail a Dealer.

10:12:55.540 --> 10:12:58.060
Now they're both just trying to pull these guys in.

10:12:58.060 --> 10:13:00.140
Very important to pull in as many Deers as you can

10:13:00.140 --> 10:13:01.860
and as fast a Time Window as you can

10:13:01.860 --> 10:13:03.540
to also allow you to scout your opponent.

10:13:03.540 --> 10:13:06.500
Fast Loom for Lance, it's gonna be a Tower Rush.

10:13:06.500 --> 10:13:10.220
He is gonna go for the Inca Tower Rush most likely.

10:13:13.460 --> 10:13:14.540
Loom for Grubby as well.

10:13:14.540 --> 10:13:16.860
19 Pop-Man alarms most likely.

10:13:16.860 --> 10:13:18.460
I don't see the barracks from Grubby though,

10:13:18.460 --> 10:13:19.940
So maybe it won't be.

10:13:19.940 --> 10:13:20.720
That's the wood now.

10:13:20.720 --> 10:13:22.300
He's got the wood, he's going to go for it.

10:13:22.300 --> 10:13:24.060
Oh, there's the military, yeah.

10:13:24.060 --> 10:13:27.180
Now, barracks on the front.

10:13:27.180 --> 10:13:28.180
Pass, beautiful lands.

10:13:28.180 --> 10:13:30.580
This is a bit of a cut off for Krobi.

10:13:30.580 --> 10:13:32.700
Now, he put four walls on wood.

10:13:32.700 --> 10:13:37.620
That's why he was lacking a little bit, but seems fine.

10:13:37.620 --> 10:13:38.380
All right.

10:13:38.380 --> 10:13:40.140
Also, Ethiopians have a very nice amount of time

10:13:40.140 --> 10:13:42.020
built with extra 100 food, 100 gold.

10:13:42.020 --> 10:13:43.540
Yeah.

10:13:43.540 --> 10:13:44.860
Stenjizes nicely.

10:13:44.860 --> 10:13:46.220
I think it's one of the better sips

10:13:46.220 --> 10:13:48.140
to punish any shenanigans in the early game,

10:13:48.140 --> 10:13:50.620
Just cause you're up 200 res, like food in wood as well.

10:13:50.620 --> 10:13:52.060
Oh, sorry, food in gold.

10:13:52.060 --> 10:13:53.540
Very relevant early game res,

10:13:53.540 --> 10:13:55.180
especially when you want to be like mid-arms to archers

10:13:55.180 --> 10:13:56.260
and like that.

10:13:56.260 --> 10:13:58.580
And so Lance, he's on stone.

10:13:58.580 --> 10:14:00.380
He's gonna send five or six villages forward,

10:14:00.380 --> 10:14:02.700
or actually eight villages forward, holy.

10:14:02.700 --> 10:14:03.540
Eight!

10:14:03.540 --> 10:14:04.380
Seven!

10:14:04.380 --> 10:14:05.220
Eight!

10:14:05.220 --> 10:14:06.060
No, eight.

10:14:06.060 --> 10:14:06.900
I think that's amazing.

10:14:06.900 --> 10:14:08.180
And then the day if you send four,

10:14:08.180 --> 10:14:09.620
they get caught off, you can die, right?

10:14:09.620 --> 10:14:11.980
If you just send eight, you're fighting anything back.

10:14:11.980 --> 10:14:14.020
So, I think this is really good.

10:14:14.020 --> 10:14:15.180
It's gonna be seven though in the end.

10:14:15.180 --> 10:14:17.580
Not eight, not six, but seven.

10:14:17.580 --> 10:14:20.500
And we're gonna have some militia coming out.

10:14:21.500 --> 10:14:22.580
Yeah, he's kind of...

10:14:22.580 --> 10:14:23.420
They sent the back.

10:14:23.420 --> 10:14:25.020
Moving them around.

10:14:25.020 --> 10:14:26.460
Lance is looking for something here.

10:14:26.460 --> 10:14:29.100
24-bill, 24-second-stuff feudal age.

10:14:30.260 --> 10:14:31.620
We're only gonna target the back

10:14:31.620 --> 10:14:34.860
and kind of like the wood area of Grubby's base.

10:14:34.860 --> 10:14:35.700
If he goes to the front,

10:14:35.700 --> 10:14:36.540
he's gonna run to the barracks,

10:14:36.540 --> 10:14:37.660
don't wanna do that.

10:14:37.660 --> 10:14:39.540
Grubby's gonna go for some men-arms.

10:14:39.540 --> 10:14:40.820
I wonder if he's gonna attack with them

10:14:40.820 --> 10:14:43.140
or kind of keep them on defense once he scouts this.

10:14:43.140 --> 10:14:44.500
Grubby's got no idea so far.

10:14:44.500 --> 10:14:46.540
He could imagine that something weird is coming this way.

10:14:46.540 --> 10:14:48.540
Grubby will explore it though

10:14:48.540 --> 10:14:50.540
Is that scouted now with the scouts?

10:14:50.540 --> 10:14:52.540
Potentially

10:14:52.540 --> 10:14:54.540
Oh my god Grubby is going to miss it

10:14:54.540 --> 10:14:56.540
Grubby missed it

10:14:56.540 --> 10:14:58.540
Oh my god Grubby has barely missed it

10:14:58.540 --> 10:15:00.540
This cannot get any

10:15:00.540 --> 10:15:02.540
Unluckier for Grubby this set

10:15:02.540 --> 10:15:04.540
He's missed all the groove and information

10:15:04.540 --> 10:15:06.540
He doesn't know where Lance is

10:15:06.540 --> 10:15:08.540
He's going to go out in the dark

10:15:08.540 --> 10:15:10.540
He goes a little greedy luring in some deer

10:15:10.540 --> 10:15:12.540
Lance is super sneaky with 7 villagers

10:15:12.540 --> 10:15:14.540
A tower behind the wood line

10:15:14.540 --> 10:15:20.540
This is quite, quite rough for Grubby, he's going to go for the range, committing to that range when you're about to lose the wood line

10:15:20.540 --> 10:15:23.060
is something that's quite difficult to work around.

10:15:23.060 --> 10:15:27.540
Tower at home from Lance, and at Black Snuts, he's going to stay relatively safe.

10:15:28.540 --> 10:15:33.140
There's nothing hit, maybe the berries, maybe these two vills and the berries you can hit.

10:15:34.140 --> 10:15:41.540
Tower on the wood, Grubby's got a react, very cheesy approach from Lance, it's going to feel terrible for Grubby to lose this.

10:15:41.540 --> 10:15:44.840
If it does happen, it can be some major tips for the last game.

10:15:44.840 --> 10:15:46.340
He also fails the critical.

10:15:46.340 --> 10:15:48.840
He's walling himself out.

10:15:48.840 --> 10:15:50.340
God, delete that.

10:15:50.340 --> 10:15:51.340
It's not the way.

10:15:51.340 --> 10:15:54.340
House, House of Top, and you're dead, right?

10:15:54.340 --> 10:15:55.340
That power doesn't do that much.

10:15:55.340 --> 10:15:56.340
Infantry armor.

10:15:56.340 --> 10:15:57.840
Infantry armor?

10:15:57.840 --> 10:15:59.340
Uh, uh...

10:15:59.340 --> 10:16:00.840
Does he know Eric?

10:16:00.840 --> 10:16:02.940
Does he know it doesn't affect villagers, Vincas?

10:16:02.940 --> 10:16:03.940
He might not know.

10:16:03.940 --> 10:16:05.140
He might think it does.

10:16:05.140 --> 10:16:06.240
Oh, it used to.

10:16:06.240 --> 10:16:07.240
It used to.

10:16:07.240 --> 10:16:09.540
Now it only affects them in castage onwards.

10:16:09.540 --> 10:16:10.840
Oh, there's two villagers.

10:16:10.840 --> 10:16:13.080
From Lance, he's completely forgotten to pull them back.

10:16:13.080 --> 10:16:14.680
Oh my god, this is huge for Grubby.

10:16:14.680 --> 10:16:16.680
He's gonna kill two food villagers.

10:16:16.680 --> 10:16:17.880
Disaster for Lance.

10:16:17.880 --> 10:16:19.640
He had all the time in the world to pull those back,

10:16:19.640 --> 10:16:20.920
but he just forgot about them.

10:16:21.800 --> 10:16:22.840
Oh my goodness.

10:16:22.840 --> 10:16:24.520
A bit of good fortune for Grubby in the end.

10:16:24.520 --> 10:16:27.160
Two villagers is huge at the stage of the game.

10:16:27.160 --> 10:16:28.200
And on food as well,

10:16:28.200 --> 10:16:29.800
Lance is already struggling to make villagers.

10:16:29.800 --> 10:16:30.360
There's a hole!

10:16:30.360 --> 10:16:31.160
Terrible situation.

10:16:31.160 --> 10:16:32.360
That was just a fact through.

10:16:32.360 --> 10:16:33.800
Oh god, he scared me, Leery.

10:16:34.360 --> 10:16:35.560
If there's a hole, it's GG.

10:16:37.560 --> 10:16:38.440
There might be a hole.

10:16:38.440 --> 10:16:39.000
Okay, well...

10:16:39.000 --> 10:16:39.480
No.

10:16:40.840 --> 10:16:43.840
Oh, it's the champion, maybe I don't know.

10:16:43.840 --> 10:16:45.840
It's kind of the issue with Tower Rush.

10:16:45.840 --> 10:16:49.840
You can just get counter-attacked and don't really have any units to punish.

10:16:49.840 --> 10:16:52.840
You have villagers, but the opponent has more villagers at home,

10:16:52.840 --> 10:16:55.840
so in the worst case you can always send them to fight, but then it's 50-50.

10:16:55.840 --> 10:16:59.840
Yeah, absolutely. Especially you get a couple archers on the field.

10:16:59.840 --> 10:17:02.840
Remember, these are Ethiopian archers, they attack a little bit faster as well.

10:17:02.840 --> 10:17:06.840
Forward Tower from Lance. It didn't work against Pig.

10:17:06.840 --> 10:17:09.840
He doesn't know!

10:17:09.840 --> 10:17:17.960
He thinks villagers are affected by Blacksmith upgrades guys.

10:17:17.960 --> 10:17:21.160
Lance is playing the 2019 meta.

10:17:21.160 --> 10:17:25.080
It's been literally like 5 years since they made that change.

10:17:25.080 --> 10:17:26.080
Legitimately 5 years.

10:17:26.080 --> 10:17:27.080
Nobody ever told him.

10:17:27.080 --> 10:17:28.080
Look at that ticket chat.

10:17:28.080 --> 10:17:29.080
Plus 1 plus 1.

10:17:29.080 --> 10:17:30.080
I don't remember.

10:17:30.080 --> 10:17:31.080
He's dead.

10:17:31.080 --> 10:17:32.080
Oh the villagers are dying.

10:17:32.080 --> 10:17:33.080
He thinks they're tanky.

10:17:33.080 --> 10:17:34.080
He thinks they're strong.

10:17:34.080 --> 10:17:35.080
What a blundered Lance.

10:17:35.080 --> 10:17:36.080
He's playing old meta.

10:17:36.080 --> 10:17:37.080
He's playing old meta.

10:17:37.080 --> 10:17:39.080
He's playing all night

10:17:39.600 --> 10:17:41.120
Dude

10:17:41.120 --> 10:17:45.640
And he didn't figure out he did this earlier he is pig and he lost with it. Nobody told him and

10:17:46.320 --> 10:17:50.780
Oh my god, Grubby might also break in here dude. Captain Land thinks his villagers are good

10:17:50.880 --> 10:17:57.080
They're generic villagers and he's invested 250 food into upgrades that do nothing and oh my god

10:17:57.080 --> 10:17:59.200
Grubby's broken up to the settlement under the wood

10:17:59.920 --> 10:18:03.440
This is as bad of a situation as it gets for Captain Lance

10:18:03.440 --> 10:18:09.080
Ladies and gentlemen, Grubby is literally moments away from winning this game, beating Lance to

10:18:09.080 --> 10:18:13.080
the lead on the settlement. It's terrible. What a great punish from Grubby.

10:18:13.080 --> 10:18:20.880
This would have been a really good strat if the village was still good affected by the

10:18:20.880 --> 10:18:31.080
upgrades. Yeah. Five years ago. Grubby does lose the meta arms though. Man, that's crazy that he

10:18:31.080 --> 10:18:37.240
he just didn't know 17 those guys there's no talking points here Lance is dead honestly

10:18:37.240 --> 10:18:42.920
there's nothing to be done Grubby has a great defense archers are really good against tower

10:18:42.920 --> 10:18:47.480
rushes because they they just prevent you from moving forward with your towers yeah

10:18:47.480 --> 10:18:52.040
like this tower is just like you're just baby stepping another tower it's it's pretty

10:18:52.040 --> 10:18:56.000
costly to make a tower you don't have much stone and Grubby can just even let him make

10:18:56.000 --> 10:19:00.480
that one and then it doesn't do anything he needs to make one more afterwards Lance is

10:19:00.480 --> 10:19:04.820
at least cleared up the men arms at least but I mean it's 12 bills up for

10:19:04.820 --> 10:19:08.100
Grabby as long as Grabby doesn't like delete his towns in about accident he's

10:19:08.100 --> 10:19:15.660
completely winning this it's like 99.99% chance. Even if he did this towns better set up

10:19:15.660 --> 10:19:21.780
armory on the field it's looking rough. Yeah dude four lines.

10:19:22.300 --> 10:19:27.560
So he did this before and nobody told him about the upgrades. Yeah he didn't

10:19:27.560 --> 10:19:31.120
figured out nobody told them villager goes down because the thing is I didn't

10:19:31.120 --> 10:19:34.540
even think to tell him either because he was first of all his name is not grubby

10:19:34.540 --> 10:19:39.120
and second of all he was grubby the next round so it makes sense yeah exactly

10:19:39.120 --> 10:19:41.920
it was up against grubby I couldn't tell him you know no but he was making

10:19:41.920 --> 10:19:45.280
champions so it actually makes sense like a games pig he's the champion so I was

10:19:45.280 --> 10:19:48.560
like okay cool he's getting infantry armor for his infantry for the champions

10:19:48.560 --> 10:19:52.800
but in the end I think he just didn't know he just thinks the Incas are clean

10:19:52.800 --> 10:19:58.120
like that but ah dude rough stuff he's walking forward with the villagers looking

10:19:58.120 --> 10:20:01.600
for more but grubby catches them out cheap easy open outposts with extra

10:20:01.600 --> 10:20:05.000
vision grubby knows to sit inside out then he's gonna catch all of these

10:20:05.000 --> 10:20:10.720
villagers oh my god grubby's all over him grubby is all over him

10:20:12.240 --> 10:20:18.240
double the population painful that lumber came from grubby middle of the

10:20:18.240 --> 10:20:24.620
Yeah, so far away from anything. I actually like it. Just don't want any BS like just get some wood, you know

10:20:24.620 --> 10:20:26.900
I'm not gonna get a little extra wood. Yeah

10:20:31.000 --> 10:20:34.160
What's even to say at this point it's just so painful to watch

10:20:34.840 --> 10:20:40.240
Kind of feel bad because like if you knew it like maybe he's getting fleshing for the towers or maybe he's yeah

10:20:40.240 --> 10:20:46.240
Maybe he's getting a perfect or even a range, you know, because he also invested once 150 for blacksmith

10:20:46.240 --> 10:20:50.240
and then 200 food for useless upgrades. 250.

10:20:51.240 --> 10:20:55.240
But like even if it was 5 years ago how strong are those upgrades for the builds?

10:20:55.240 --> 10:20:59.240
Really good. They would tank through.

10:20:59.240 --> 10:21:03.240
It was quite solid. Oh my god, Captain Lance is not watching here.

10:21:03.240 --> 10:21:08.240
Grubby is under the tower. Great micro from Grubby. He's got to kill 4 villagers under the tower.

10:21:08.240 --> 10:21:12.240
Captain Lance is not paying attention. Oh my god. Oh my god, he's got the 16 villagers.

10:21:12.240 --> 10:21:13.240
He's microing somewhere.

10:21:13.240 --> 10:21:16.960
so painful because Grubby's always so microing on the front.

10:21:16.960 --> 10:21:19.160
The Warcraft 3 Pro Genes, look at it.

10:21:22.840 --> 10:21:23.440
Damn.

10:21:23.440 --> 10:21:24.200
Well, that kinda...

10:21:27.160 --> 10:21:28.200
Castle Age, wow.

10:21:28.200 --> 10:21:29.880
That's a nail in confidence I've ever seen it.

10:21:29.880 --> 10:21:34.000
Guys, this game is lasting at most two minutes and 30 more seconds.

10:21:34.000 --> 10:21:37.200
It's almost entirely over.

10:21:37.200 --> 10:21:38.800
There's only Castle Age to be done.

10:21:38.800 --> 10:21:40.400
Lance can play a little in Shoot-A-Lace,

10:21:40.400 --> 10:21:42.200
but once Grubby hits Castle Age,

10:21:42.200 --> 10:21:46.960
It's all said and done, we're going to see a Grubby vs. Pega rematch, a disappointing

10:21:46.960 --> 10:21:51.480
final game here, of course Lance playing an outdated strategy which is kind of hilarious

10:21:51.480 --> 10:21:53.840
but kind of unfortunate at the same time.

10:21:53.840 --> 10:21:58.320
He showed good heart and I love that he made the douche on Arena work, that's an all-timer

10:21:58.320 --> 10:22:04.360
for sure, very, very cinema strat, but Grubby is on the way to the grand finals and I don't

10:22:04.360 --> 10:22:13.360
I think Lance's got what it takes to stop him.

10:22:13.360 --> 10:22:17.360
I don't think anybody can win from Lance's position right now.

10:22:17.360 --> 10:22:19.360
Not even the top pros.

10:22:19.360 --> 10:22:21.360
Yeah, you put a pro in here.

10:22:21.360 --> 10:22:25.360
Even if Lewis the Goat takes over here, he's still cooked.

10:22:25.360 --> 10:22:29.360
There's nothing to be done.

10:22:29.360 --> 10:22:34.480
builds like maybe if you have like similar vill counts and Gruby's castleage maybe but yeah it's just

10:22:38.560 --> 10:22:43.200
yeah I mean Gruby's race is a bit you know 500 wood but I guess it's a very messy game for him

10:22:43.920 --> 10:22:47.760
because he gets more rest upon reaching castleage than Lance has in his in his bag

10:22:52.480 --> 10:22:57.600
oh god he's he's tower rushing all of the extra res and like he's doing really well but

10:22:57.600 --> 10:23:03.180
Dude, Grubby's about to get 200 resources. Lance does not have 200 resources altogether.

10:23:03.180 --> 10:23:05.280
This is terrible news for Lance.

10:23:05.280 --> 10:23:09.080
Caslid is in. If we don't see GGO played, Lance is griefing. I'm not gonna lie.

10:23:10.740 --> 10:23:13.460
He's trying one more thing. He's trying one more thing.

10:23:15.360 --> 10:23:19.580
Wait, you're thermal's having the hate watch. Hold on, you're thermal's having the hate watch of his life.

10:23:19.580 --> 10:23:23.360
He said this is the best hate watch of my life. You're thermal's just hate watching Lance.

10:23:24.160 --> 10:23:25.160
We're free.

10:23:25.160 --> 10:23:27.160
I

10:23:27.320 --> 10:23:29.320
Got too funny

10:23:31.320 --> 10:23:34.240
He lost it but I was hate watching grubby no no no

10:23:34.240 --> 10:23:38.800
He lost he lost it both but last the lance lost hurt hurt him more keep watching them both

10:23:39.080 --> 10:23:44.120
No, no, no, he hates Lance more because Lance was like teasing him grubby beat him fair and square. He doesn't mind that one

10:23:45.120 --> 10:23:47.120
Yeah, he's mad at their arena clowns

10:23:48.960 --> 10:23:54.040
Realistically, he's hate watching her it's you there. He doesn't really like me there after I've denied all his coaching sessions

10:23:55.160 --> 10:23:57.160
What's that on the book?

10:23:57.160 --> 10:23:58.160
Yeah, Lance.

10:23:58.160 --> 10:23:59.160
Bro, Lance.

10:23:59.160 --> 10:24:02.160
Uh, somebody tell me about these Path of Exile players.

10:24:02.160 --> 10:24:04.160
Uh, are they comeback players?

10:24:04.160 --> 10:24:07.160
Can they come back from the depths of Hades?

10:24:07.160 --> 10:24:09.160
Uh, I'm not really sure, man.

10:24:09.160 --> 10:24:10.160
Path of Exile.

10:24:10.160 --> 10:24:11.160
Path of Exile is a game.

10:24:11.160 --> 10:24:12.160
Hades always playing as well.

10:24:12.160 --> 10:24:13.160
Yeah.

10:24:13.160 --> 10:24:14.160
You just run around and do stuff.

10:24:14.160 --> 10:24:18.160
You have like one shit-ass, bald-ass character and you just run around and you kill stuff.

10:24:18.160 --> 10:24:19.160
That's what I've seen.

10:24:19.160 --> 10:24:22.160
I'm not gonna lie, that's what I've seen from Path of Exile so far.

10:24:22.160 --> 10:24:27.680
fast so far i have seen it's just random explosions on my map which is awesome eye cancer for me

10:24:29.200 --> 10:24:33.200
it's just one guy that's running around really fast explosions everywhere

10:24:33.200 --> 10:24:37.600
animals and shit is dying and like the guy who's controlling the characters having a great time

10:24:37.600 --> 10:24:45.680
though apparently it's really fun um it's 10 bills it's 10 bills last bro give it up bro

10:24:45.680 --> 10:24:47.680
like it's a feat of

10:24:48.200 --> 10:24:52.760
Now let him play my land play G you all played give it up in the chat for Bobby

10:24:52.760 --> 10:24:57.620
He is your second grand finalist with a beautiful performance over lands

10:24:58.280 --> 10:25:03.520
Gg well played grabby played a great set and honestly the map he lost he kind of fumbled it

10:25:03.520 --> 10:25:08.240
It was a great strategy Lance, but Lance super entertaining player. He deserves a lot of respect

10:25:08.240 --> 10:25:14.160
I love what he brought to the table. He represented the path of X out community like a champion. He gets third place

10:25:14.160 --> 10:25:18.440
Fantastic performance for Lance as well. It cannot be understated, but today

10:25:18.440 --> 10:25:22.520
Grubby's the champion. He makes the legendary loser bracket run. The dream

10:25:22.520 --> 10:25:27.720
run goes through three matches, wins them all, and he's facing the grand finalist

10:25:27.720 --> 10:25:32.920
Pig, who's undefeated in this event and who has beaten Grubby before, albeit a

10:25:32.920 --> 10:25:36.880
3-2. They had a banger. It's a rematch. It's another best of five, and it's the

10:25:36.880 --> 10:25:41.240
last best of five of the Kings Gauntlet. It couldn't be a better scenario for a

10:25:41.240 --> 10:25:48.360
Grand Finals right now the rematch from yesterday

10:25:56.160 --> 10:26:00.720
what a hell of a show Lance put on though yeah she on arena I've never seen

10:26:00.720 --> 10:26:05.640
that before yeah absolute legend just douchey on arena I've seen it before but

10:26:05.640 --> 10:26:08.640
I didn't know he knew about it and like he executed it pretty well despite you

10:26:08.640 --> 10:26:12.120
know the disastrous lost towns that are there you have a guy's bracket on the

10:26:12.120 --> 10:26:15.920
screen grab your respect is the grand final we're gonna bring Lance in here

10:26:15.920 --> 10:26:19.360
for an interview real quick but first I'm gonna just say goodbye to Leary and

10:26:19.360 --> 10:26:23.760
Lewis thank you guys for being here you guys are legends and I really appreciate

10:26:23.760 --> 10:26:29.440
your cast this is a lot of fun yeah thank you for having us for me

10:26:29.440 --> 10:26:31.440
Louis can talk for himself.

10:26:31.440 --> 10:26:33.440
Thanks for having me.

10:26:33.440 --> 10:26:35.440
Thanks for having me.

10:26:35.440 --> 10:26:37.440
Of course. Any last words for the chats?

10:26:37.440 --> 10:26:39.440
I hate watching Pig for the final goal, Grubby!

10:26:41.440 --> 10:26:43.440
Hey, watch Pig for no reason. Just gonna catch Grubby.

10:26:47.440 --> 10:26:49.440
Alright, love it guys. Thanks for being here.

10:26:49.440 --> 10:26:51.440
Have a good one. We'll see you chat around.

10:26:51.440 --> 10:26:53.440
Yeah, see you. Peace, peace, peace.

10:26:53.440 --> 10:26:57.440
Guys, check out Leery and Louis on Twitch.

10:26:57.440 --> 10:27:02.080
They both stream it from time to time Lewis's YouTube channel twist channel guys and check them out if you like their vibe

10:27:02.120 --> 10:27:04.120
They're both of course pro players

10:27:04.160 --> 10:27:07.960
Leery is a teammate of mine on vitality. So definitely a top tier guy and

10:27:09.120 --> 10:27:12.920
Ladies and gentlemen, we have a dream final, but I will say before we bring in Lance

10:27:12.920 --> 10:27:15.360
I don't know if he's gonna join. I hope he does join for a little bit of a talk

10:27:15.600 --> 10:27:20.860
Let's just do like this guys. Oh sevens in the chat for Lance the last fallen warrior before the grand finals

10:27:21.000 --> 10:27:24.720
Huge shout out to Lance again. I love what he brought to the table super entertaining

10:27:24.720 --> 10:27:29.380
He had such an insane run he beat Wagamama. He beat Knoth bit of a sweet back-to-back

10:27:29.660 --> 10:27:34.120
He took out his thermal and then he actually just barely lost the pig

10:27:34.380 --> 10:27:36.540
So it's a he's just been in banger after banger

10:27:37.200 --> 10:27:43.300
Possibly his worst performance was against grubby, but he still managed to take one game, which is actually not too bad

10:27:45.100 --> 10:27:50.300
We I will play to Captain Lance. He had a great result and oh actually speaking of the speed in which Captain Lance you're in here, bro

10:27:50.300 --> 10:27:52.100
I'm here. He'd you all played good to see you man

10:27:52.620 --> 10:27:54.620
You know what I just found out

10:27:54.720 --> 10:27:57.360
Tell me man, I kind of have an idea though.

10:27:57.360 --> 10:28:03.040
Apparently, uh, you know, five years ago Inca's, the Blacksmith upgrades worked in Feudal, okay?

10:28:03.040 --> 10:28:11.680
And uh, apparently there's this in Castle Age line that I did, I used that in two games too, I thought it worked.

10:28:11.680 --> 10:28:18.160
Yeah, let's take a look at the uh, at the texture here. So um, uh,

10:28:18.160 --> 10:28:23.200
Villager is affected by infantry Blacksmith upgrades. Sounds amazing. Starting in Castle Age!

10:28:24.720 --> 10:28:28.720
That starting in Castle Edge costed the game, basically.

10:28:28.720 --> 10:28:34.720
I was thinking, man, don't feel very tanky. I should be taking like one damage a shot from these archers.

10:28:34.720 --> 10:28:38.720
Yeah, yeah. And he's like getting picked apart, Ethiopian archers on you.

10:28:38.720 --> 10:28:41.720
But, oh, bro, you're a freaking legend. Forget about the loss.

10:28:41.720 --> 10:28:45.720
Look at that freaking douche on arena. Despite you losing the counselor, how did...

10:28:45.720 --> 10:28:49.720
Dude, I don't know how that succeeded after he pre-fired the placement.

10:28:49.720 --> 10:28:53.720
That was insane. I don't know how either, honestly.

10:28:53.720 --> 10:28:59.640
A miracle. That's that's how straight straight up miracle. Dude. I had a lot of fun with this tournament

10:28:59.640 --> 10:29:06.620
This is this has been it's been a blast. Love to hear it man. You enjoyed the ladder race enjoyed the main events everything good

10:29:07.440 --> 10:29:10.040
Yeah, yeah, no, it's friggin sick event

10:29:10.040 --> 10:29:16.220
I'm looking forward to either watching or participating in number two if you host it if you host again

10:29:16.220 --> 10:29:19.120
I think you hit the goal. Yeah, we hit the goal. My eyes don't deceive me

10:29:19.120 --> 10:29:24.360
King's Gauntlet number two is confirmed for next year guys and it's thanks to the chat

10:29:24.360 --> 10:29:25.760
We hit the 9,000 sub goal

10:29:25.760 --> 10:29:30.600
It was an ambitious goal to be honest and we hit it so King's Gauntlet number two is confirmed

10:29:30.600 --> 10:29:31.960
It's a lot of work to set it up

10:29:31.960 --> 10:29:35.720
But I'm more than happy to set up the work with the amount of people who had around here

10:29:35.720 --> 10:29:36.640
It's gonna be fantastic

10:29:36.640 --> 10:29:41.840
So and honestly, I think there should be a king every game in the second edition because the king was just like the highlight honestly

10:29:44.280 --> 10:29:47.240
For me that that game against death though was definitely I

10:29:47.240 --> 10:29:49.660
I, I don't know what I was witnessing.

10:29:51.040 --> 10:29:53.220
It also makes it a little bit of an element where if you're losing,

10:29:53.220 --> 10:29:56.660
you can at least try for King's night, which is like, I knew I was desperately

10:29:56.660 --> 10:30:00.360
losing the, uh, the game against the grubby, the first match.

10:30:00.380 --> 10:30:02.880
And I still was like, I'm going to try to get some guitars and see if I can

10:30:02.880 --> 10:30:03.880
go snipe the King.

10:30:04.680 --> 10:30:04.980
Yeah.

10:30:04.980 --> 10:30:05.100
Yeah.

10:30:05.100 --> 10:30:07.580
Just send it in, whatever you can.

10:30:08.260 --> 10:30:11.360
Uh, I actually liked that he tried and you actually were kind of close.

10:30:11.360 --> 10:30:14.080
Like your, your 10 guitars were going in close, but then you just walked

10:30:14.080 --> 10:30:14.760
past the castle.

10:30:14.760 --> 10:30:18.080
Unfortunately, I said thinking like the slightly longer path you had a castle

10:30:18.080 --> 10:30:20.880
I didn't eject the king though or was the king still there? No, bro

10:30:20.880 --> 10:30:24.440
Grubby refused to move it. I don't know why it was so like sketchy. That's crazy

10:30:24.440 --> 10:30:27.440
It's always very close to get it. Yes for no reason

10:30:29.080 --> 10:30:31.080
For no reason

10:30:34.480 --> 10:30:38.000
Yeah, it was a good set man, it was a good set you had a great run honestly

10:30:38.000 --> 10:30:42.280
I think you should be proud of performance. You took out your thermal. He's a bit salty about that still but

10:30:44.760 --> 10:30:48.200
achievement there. Got farmed salts from you thermal to no end.

10:30:50.280 --> 10:30:53.000
Bro, out of the fierce days, yeah, quite a few there.

10:30:53.640 --> 10:30:55.080
They taste good, man. They taste good.

10:30:56.040 --> 10:30:58.440
On one side, I had you thermal. I was like consoling you thermal,

10:30:58.440 --> 10:31:01.080
and now I'm in the other core. I'm like, bro, you can't kill those ass.

10:31:02.920 --> 10:31:06.520
And he said, who sent them salt? Yeah, I love arena. Oh, you can almost just a positive guy.

10:31:09.240 --> 10:31:11.000
That's why he changed his name to arena enjoyer.

10:31:11.000 --> 10:31:18.000
10-3 guys off. You've played well. You've played well. It's been actually a cinema tournament.

10:31:18.000 --> 10:31:22.000
Let me give you thoughts on the finals though, Capmala. You played against both Pig and Grubby,

10:31:22.000 --> 10:31:26.000
and not to mention it, but you lost to both. Sad to mention, of course.

10:31:26.000 --> 10:31:33.000
Yeah, you had to mention it. Honestly, from playing them now, I was doing a lot more

10:31:33.000 --> 10:31:41.540
a lot more Mimi strats against Grubby to be like, if that wasn't obvious, I'm, I'm thinking

10:31:41.540 --> 10:31:48.460
from my experience, playing both, I think Grubby's got it. I think he's, I think he's

10:31:48.460 --> 10:31:49.460
taking it all the way.

10:31:49.460 --> 10:31:54.660
Wow. Okay. Rocking with the Grubster. What do you make of that first loss to Pig though?

10:31:54.660 --> 10:32:02.780
Um, I think Grubby had an off day. I don't know. I feel like he left some openings.

10:32:02.780 --> 10:32:10.860
has been like playing extremely well but I don't know I think I think Grubby today has been pretty

10:32:12.220 --> 10:32:17.500
pretty like locked in yeah I think I think he's gonna I think he's gonna full sweep from the

10:32:17.500 --> 10:32:22.940
reverse from the loser bracket would be quite the storyline four sets in a row yeah as I say

10:32:22.940 --> 10:32:27.100
would be quite the storyline play four sets in one day and win them all of course Grubby's playing

10:32:27.100 --> 10:32:28.660
very late at night as well.

10:32:28.660 --> 10:32:31.820
Pig has the advantage here of being well rested

10:32:31.820 --> 10:32:33.020
for the Grand Finals.

10:32:33.020 --> 10:32:35.580
He only had play one set, it was a while ago.

10:32:35.580 --> 10:32:37.820
So a lot of rest, there's no other advantages though

10:32:37.820 --> 10:32:39.180
for Pig by the way.

10:32:39.180 --> 10:32:42.540
So no like extra home map, no one zero,

10:32:42.540 --> 10:32:44.220
no bracket resets, all right?

10:32:44.220 --> 10:32:45.980
I want everyone to understand this.

10:32:47.060 --> 10:32:49.540
I know it might seem like it's a bit unfair,

10:32:49.540 --> 10:32:51.140
but honestly I prefer it this way.

10:32:51.140 --> 10:32:54.180
I'd rather for the hype of the last match,

10:32:54.180 --> 10:32:56.740
I'd rather have a one clean best of five

10:32:56.740 --> 10:32:59.620
between the two best players, and having that rest

10:32:59.620 --> 10:33:02.700
is sometimes enough of an advantage to make it worthwhile

10:33:02.700 --> 10:33:04.900
coming in from the undefeated winners bracket.

10:33:04.900 --> 10:33:06.980
So that's the situation.

10:33:06.980 --> 10:33:08.540
Some people might disagree, of course,

10:33:08.540 --> 10:33:09.820
but that's what we went for,

10:33:09.820 --> 10:33:11.460
and we're not gonna change that one, of course.

10:33:11.460 --> 10:33:13.740
It's too late to make any adjustments there.

10:33:17.140 --> 10:33:18.500
The end, that'll be a nice final.

10:33:18.500 --> 10:33:19.500
It's gonna be a good match.

10:33:21.580 --> 10:33:23.020
All right, Captain Lance,

10:33:23.020 --> 10:33:24.020
do you wanna stick around for the cast?

10:33:24.020 --> 10:33:25.140
I have Yamato coming in here.

10:33:25.140 --> 10:33:26.940
I don't want to put you on the spot or anything.

10:33:26.940 --> 10:33:28.420
I'm not going to chill.

10:33:28.420 --> 10:33:29.020
I'm not going to chill.

10:33:29.020 --> 10:33:30.780
OK, we can stick around to the cast.

10:33:30.780 --> 10:33:32.300
Don't expect me to talk too much.

10:33:32.300 --> 10:33:33.580
It's been a long day.

10:33:33.580 --> 10:33:35.980
I'm going to be a little bit more relaxed.

10:33:35.980 --> 10:33:36.820
No worries.

10:33:36.820 --> 10:33:37.740
I'll get the cast.

10:33:37.740 --> 10:33:40.380
Yamato's going to be talking about some Lupin and here.

10:33:40.380 --> 10:33:42.500
Yeah, buddy.

10:33:42.500 --> 10:33:43.860
There he is.

10:33:43.860 --> 10:33:45.220
You were talking about some Lupin.

10:33:45.220 --> 10:33:47.140
Katmash, there's a couple of comments here and there if you want.

10:33:47.140 --> 10:33:48.100
No worries, no stress.

10:33:48.100 --> 10:33:50.340
It's all good.

10:33:50.340 --> 10:33:51.220
Right on, right on.

10:33:51.220 --> 10:33:52.780
Yamato, the loop daddy.

10:33:52.780 --> 10:33:53.780
What's going on, brother?

10:33:53.780 --> 10:33:56.900
Yo, first I gotta say capital is well fought, well fought, man.

10:33:57.500 --> 10:33:58.940
I respect the tower rush.

10:33:59.500 --> 10:34:00.180
Well fought.

10:34:00.700 --> 10:34:02.140
I was trying to give the content.

10:34:03.380 --> 10:34:04.180
Yeah, yeah.

10:34:04.580 --> 10:34:05.420
I was entertained.

10:34:05.540 --> 10:34:06.900
The work man respect.

10:34:07.980 --> 10:34:08.660
Well done, man.

10:34:09.180 --> 10:34:12.260
I have drank like two liters of apple juice, bro.

10:34:12.260 --> 10:34:13.300
I am so ready.

10:34:13.780 --> 10:34:14.420
Oh, it's good.

10:34:14.780 --> 10:34:15.700
Get that energy in.

10:34:16.620 --> 10:34:18.060
Eighth truck is not here guys.

10:34:18.100 --> 10:34:21.580
Uh, he was supposed to be for the cast, but unfortunately he overslept and

10:34:21.580 --> 10:34:28.420
DPA is missing the cast of the finals, totally joking of course, Hrock, he told me he couldn't make it, he's out for something, so

10:34:29.100 --> 10:34:35.580
No, Hrock, why don't you join us? We have Mr. Yamato, and we have a somewhat chilled-out Captain Lance

10:34:35.740 --> 10:34:37.740
We'll give a couple comments here and there

10:34:39.260 --> 10:34:43.020
And that's gonna be the good roster for the caster, for the caster squad

10:34:43.460 --> 10:34:49.660
Pig and Grubby, the two best players of the event, and I actually have a nice little special not announced it because people know about this already

10:34:50.340 --> 10:34:51.340
but

10:34:51.340 --> 10:34:55.140
maybe so we don't so let me tell a little story and I'm gonna explain what's

10:34:55.140 --> 10:34:57.940
gonna happen tomorrow so of course right now we're waiting for pig and grubby to

10:34:57.940 --> 10:35:00.660
get started for the grand finals we're giving them a good 10 minute break

10:35:00.660 --> 10:35:04.140
especially grubby to just you know relax after that last match and then they'll

10:35:04.140 --> 10:35:09.460
play it out especially grubby of course no it's not especially grubby it's it's

10:35:09.460 --> 10:35:14.460
It's out of control.

10:35:14.460 --> 10:35:18.460
Oh yeah, so Grubby gets 10 minutes.

10:35:18.460 --> 10:35:22.460
You've been casting long today for this one, one o'clock.

10:35:22.460 --> 10:35:23.460
You're tired.

10:35:23.460 --> 10:35:25.460
You're coming at me fresh right now.

10:35:25.460 --> 10:35:26.460
Yo, you matter.

10:35:26.460 --> 10:35:27.460
I'm not tired.

10:35:27.460 --> 10:35:29.460
Don't think you're going to take advantage of me with this little banter.

10:35:29.460 --> 10:35:30.460
I'm fresh, bro.

10:35:30.460 --> 10:35:31.460
I got it.

10:35:31.460 --> 10:35:32.460
I'm going to bounce back.

10:35:32.460 --> 10:35:34.460
Bro, you didn't even catch this one, but that was a straight jab.

10:35:34.460 --> 10:35:35.460
It was coming at you.

10:35:35.460 --> 10:35:36.460
No, I swear.

10:35:36.460 --> 10:35:37.460
I swear.

10:35:37.460 --> 10:35:38.460
I swear.

10:35:38.460 --> 10:35:40.460
Go ahead. Go ahead. You talk about your

10:35:40.460 --> 10:35:42.460
announcement for tomorrow.

10:35:42.460 --> 10:35:44.460
The announcement is there's no final.

10:35:44.460 --> 10:35:46.460
Grubby wins and that's it. I don't want to hear it.

10:35:46.460 --> 10:35:48.460
That's the announcement. Okay, listen.

10:35:48.460 --> 10:35:50.460
I have an announcement. It has nothing to do with Grubby,

10:35:50.460 --> 10:35:52.460
but Grubby will be involved, obviously. Here's the announcement.

10:35:52.460 --> 10:35:54.460
So,

10:35:54.460 --> 10:35:56.460
people were asking before this

10:35:56.460 --> 10:35:58.460
event, can we see some team games

10:35:58.460 --> 10:36:00.460
between the players? And I

10:36:00.460 --> 10:36:02.460
really wanted to have team games,

10:36:02.460 --> 10:36:04.460
but I was limited on budget from Microsoft.

10:36:04.460 --> 10:36:06.460
Microsoft gave me 10,000

10:36:06.460 --> 10:36:13.220
And a little bit extra for like production costs, but really not much, which is good. A good amount of money from Microsoft. That's good. It's going to go for the price pool.

10:36:13.900 --> 10:36:18.540
You know, players got some money from the latter race players got some money from the placement, the top eight in the tournament.

10:36:19.140 --> 10:36:32.620
And so it's not bad. However, we have gotten an anonymous sponsor who came forward and pledged $7,000 on his own to host two team game matches between the players tomorrow, the day after the event.

10:36:32.620 --> 10:36:39.780
And so I can finally happily and proudly announce that we're going to have team games with a voice chat with streams

10:36:40.020 --> 10:36:45.260
Between all the players who show up, which is most of them already confirmed tomorrow during the day

10:36:45.260 --> 10:36:51.760
All thanks to this one anonymous donated. I am beyond grateful for the anonymous person

10:36:51.760 --> 10:36:57.460
I am so stoked to host them and it's gonna be an extra day to the event

10:36:57.460 --> 10:37:00.340
So of course the winner of this wins the Kings gollets over

10:37:00.340 --> 10:37:04.700
It's the King's Gauntlet after party. It'll be two team game matches played tomorrow

10:37:04.740 --> 10:37:07.820
We're gonna start the show at 16 GMT with the first match

10:37:07.820 --> 10:37:14.260
I might come a little earlier so 16 GMT first national starts then the second match right after voice chat on both sides

10:37:14.420 --> 10:37:17.240
We might even have a draft so whoever shows up

10:37:17.240 --> 10:37:24.600
We're gonna do a draft they'll take turns picking captains like high school football and then we'll play it out voice chats on both sides

10:37:24.620 --> 10:37:29.040
I'll be casting it of course and we'll have a great time little after party for the King's Gauntlet

10:37:29.040 --> 10:37:33.280
There's also prize money on it. You know everyone who shows up gets paid and should be a great time

10:37:33.920 --> 10:37:38.880
Yamato, it sounds good. Did you say seven thousand dollars seven thousand bro?

10:37:39.200 --> 10:37:42.800
That's uh, that's infinite more than what you got for the event because you got zero, but

10:37:43.680 --> 10:37:45.680
It's a lot of money, bro

10:37:46.800 --> 10:37:48.800
Pretty good. It's not rigged

10:37:49.920 --> 10:37:55.360
It's not rigged, but Yamato your team is ampi uh day nine iukeson and yourself that's your team

10:37:55.360 --> 10:38:00.640
I'm sorry, not Day 9, Jabbo. It's Jabbo, I'm...

10:38:00.640 --> 10:38:02.640
Give him straight killers over there.

10:38:02.640 --> 10:38:05.640
Yeah, that's kind of an overpowered team. That's true.

10:38:05.640 --> 10:38:08.640
Nice losing DarkHeads team.

10:38:08.640 --> 10:38:10.640
No, that's the...

10:38:10.640 --> 10:38:12.640
Lose the boar.

10:38:12.640 --> 10:38:16.640
Bro, Ieaksen has a nasty tower rush, you're like a nasty looper.

10:38:16.640 --> 10:38:20.640
Ampy will forget to get armor, but he will be meant to arm rushing with Romans.

10:38:20.640 --> 10:38:24.640
And Jabbo will be there. He will be there, which is good.

10:38:24.640 --> 10:38:25.480
She's good.

10:38:27.440 --> 10:38:28.760
But you sit as a draft, yeah?

10:38:28.760 --> 10:38:32.520
So I will be like, I'll be like seventh pick.

10:38:32.520 --> 10:38:34.520
So I'll be on the good team.

10:38:34.520 --> 10:38:36.400
Yeah, it's one way to think about it, yeah.

10:38:36.400 --> 10:38:37.480
Unless they first pick you,

10:38:37.480 --> 10:38:39.400
like they see the potential, you know?

10:38:41.960 --> 10:38:46.360
They need a microscope to see the potential, bro.

10:38:48.920 --> 10:38:51.880
Yamato, man, it's good to have you in for the cast.

10:38:51.880 --> 10:38:54.000
You're a fan favorite in the casting booth.

10:38:54.000 --> 10:38:59.000
And it's all coming down to one final match in the King's Call.

10:38:59.100 --> 10:39:01.280
It's been a literal cinema tournament so far.

10:39:01.280 --> 10:39:02.120
I know you've enjoyed it.

10:39:02.120 --> 10:39:03.620
You can do a casting.

10:39:03.620 --> 10:39:05.500
And if Pig or Scrobby, the two best players,

10:39:05.500 --> 10:39:06.420
Pig still undefeated.

10:39:06.420 --> 10:39:09.220
What do you make of this finals matchup though?

10:39:09.220 --> 10:39:14.220
I feel like Grubby's run is, it's so Hera-pilled, you know?

10:39:14.500 --> 10:39:17.800
Like doing the lower bracket run.

10:39:17.800 --> 10:39:22.800
He lost to the level six metamorphosis, you know?

10:39:22.800 --> 10:39:28.960
Yeah, I don't know I looked at the games today and I feel like grubby has like ascended bro

10:39:28.960 --> 10:39:34.800
He is he is is if you played RTS still to this day, bro. He has ascended

10:39:35.440 --> 10:39:37.440
is he's locked in I

10:39:38.720 --> 10:39:40.560
have

10:39:40.560 --> 10:39:45.120
Strong belief as well in this idea that a player like keep in mind

10:39:46.240 --> 10:39:47.760
the

10:39:47.760 --> 10:39:51.760
You have such high amount of experience, right?

10:39:51.760 --> 10:39:54.720
So I don't think fatigue is going to kick in the same way.

10:39:54.720 --> 10:39:58.400
I think now Grubby is like warm, you know?

10:39:58.400 --> 10:40:01.000
Because Grubby has played like WCG days.

10:40:01.000 --> 10:40:04.240
He's played some tournaments that were longer than this even.

10:40:04.240 --> 10:40:07.480
So this is like, all that DNA is kicking in, you know?

10:40:07.480 --> 10:40:09.800
He's Dutch as well, you know, when he meditates,

10:40:09.800 --> 10:40:12.120
he just hears like Tiesto Tecno in his head, you know?

10:40:12.120 --> 10:40:14.600
Like he is in the zone.

10:40:14.600 --> 10:40:17.320
So Pig, I don't know, time zone wise,

10:40:17.320 --> 10:40:20.560
I don't know how cookie is because that's also something to keep in mind.

10:40:20.560 --> 10:40:23.520
You know, it might be sleep hours for, for, for, for, for these guys.

10:40:23.520 --> 10:40:26.840
Maybe, maybe pig is just imperfect at times on hours now.

10:40:26.880 --> 10:40:28.440
Like what time is it in Australia right now?

10:40:28.640 --> 10:40:30.040
Uh, it should be morning.

10:40:30.880 --> 10:40:31.200
Yeah.

10:40:31.400 --> 10:40:32.520
Oh, right.

10:40:32.520 --> 10:40:34.800
So he's been awake all night.

10:40:36.360 --> 10:40:38.400
Now, surely he slept after the set with me.

10:40:38.920 --> 10:40:39.800
Maybe, I don't know.

10:40:39.800 --> 10:40:41.280
He's on a cook, sleep schedule at this point.

10:40:41.280 --> 10:40:43.240
I would imagine the time in Sydney.

10:40:43.240 --> 10:40:44.160
He lives in Sydney.

10:40:44.160 --> 10:40:47.040
I remember he said Australia, Sydney time.

10:40:47.320 --> 10:40:58.280
9 a.m. Oh Jesus he might be right depends if he went to bed right after the

10:40:58.280 --> 10:41:01.840
sudden then set the alarm or if you stayed up the whole time I don't know I

10:41:01.840 --> 10:41:06.880
think he's not a little I'm not really sure how he's doing though he's not

10:41:06.880 --> 10:41:13.520
then woke up again cook time zone versus fourth best of five in a row yeah

10:41:13.520 --> 10:41:15.520
Yeah

10:41:15.920 --> 10:41:22.840
Sick Grubbers played case three three three so nine ten eleven so eleven games today Grubbers play eleven competitive games

10:41:23.320 --> 10:41:27.020
Pig only played five and he got some rest. So it's like

10:41:27.680 --> 10:41:29.520
Both players not coming in at their best

10:41:29.520 --> 10:41:35.560
But then the day you just have to be better than the opponent. You don't actually have to be at your you know, absolute best

10:41:35.560 --> 10:41:37.560
Um

10:41:37.760 --> 10:41:40.560
Thanks, you're looking at it wrong bro. They brought the

10:41:41.000 --> 10:41:45.640
These are two guys molded and steel bro. This is the this is the eye of the tiger

10:41:45.640 --> 10:41:50.120
We're gonna get the best level out of them because it's gonna come from the soul, you know

10:41:50.120 --> 10:41:55.120
I hope so carries you when your body and mind is just a little bit too weak, you know your soul

10:41:55.120 --> 10:41:57.620
All that fatigue will come out tomorrow, you know. Yeah

10:42:00.440 --> 10:42:03.680
You're that demon run tournaments, what's the longest tournament you've run

10:42:03.680 --> 10:42:09.920
Well, the Warcraft one actually from Grubby was the most I've had to play in one day like that. That's hero run

10:42:09.920 --> 10:42:11.480
Does it in Grubby's tournaments?

10:42:11.480 --> 10:42:15.200
Hey, that's actually a bit of a connecting storyline. So Grubby hosted a Warcraft tournament

10:42:15.200 --> 10:42:18.160
I dropped to like I got kind of upset by simply

10:42:18.640 --> 10:42:22.840
Although it was a 2-0 in the upper bracket. I dropped I come back. I beat simply

10:42:23.540 --> 10:42:25.540
again in the lower bracket and

10:42:25.540 --> 10:42:30.520
Then I have to make a hero run through the lower bracket and I actually managed to reverse sweep your motto as well

10:42:30.520 --> 10:42:35.320
sorry man to bring it up but in the finals it was a hero run pretty scripted you can say grubby's

10:42:35.320 --> 10:42:39.800
following the same script grubby's literally following the same script some people could even

10:42:39.800 --> 10:42:46.120
say this is lazy writing on our end but let's see how it goes like if pigs up to zero i wouldn't

10:42:46.120 --> 10:42:51.480
count out grubby i feel like the script is just getting started you know that that that the reverse

10:42:51.480 --> 10:42:56.920
sweet mansion never hurts me because of what death note told me after what do you say don't don't be

10:42:56.920 --> 10:43:08.920
said you make RTS pro you out micro like little beach don't be said the one

10:43:08.920 --> 10:43:12.280
that no conflict comes in

10:43:15.880 --> 10:43:20.040
I look to you hang out like you hang on to that one like that that one mattered

10:43:20.040 --> 10:43:26.240
a lot of course that's good bro I also hear the minus point you know like

10:43:26.240 --> 10:43:28.800
Yeah, but I hear it everywhere, you know

10:43:29.360 --> 10:43:33.160
Sometimes I go take a piss, you know in the morning my eyes are still foggy, you know

10:43:33.160 --> 10:43:38.560
I get like one little drop on the side, you know suddenly I hear minus point. I wake up like that, bro

10:43:39.160 --> 10:43:42.760
Everywhere everywhere I go minus point. That's crazy

10:43:43.960 --> 10:43:47.600
This is how you live your life now, but you're seeing your life from a different dimensions like now

10:43:47.600 --> 10:43:52.440
Everything can be optimized and everything that's inefficient is a minus one. So you got to be careful

10:43:53.160 --> 10:43:55.520
It's a good little life, you know, it's a good little life

10:43:56.240 --> 10:44:01.680
Red force was too nice to me man. Yeah, that was your problem. That was your problem

10:44:06.560 --> 10:44:11.140
When are we starting starting soon so we see grubby in the camera right there, he's getting locked in

10:44:12.400 --> 10:44:18.240
Background as well got thrall another throw this Rex are backing him up with me shut the bear. Do you know the floor?

10:44:18.480 --> 10:44:22.640
No, bro. I know early. You're a work of legend. How do you know this?

10:44:22.640 --> 10:44:29.640
Yeah, these are some badass motherfuckers from the Warcraft 3 lore, but his bear is afraid

10:44:29.640 --> 10:44:30.640
of camels.

10:44:30.640 --> 10:44:31.640
Okay.

10:44:31.640 --> 10:44:34.640
It's kind of like AoE, right?

10:44:34.640 --> 10:44:37.640
It's kind of like AoE where your horse is afraid of camels.

10:44:37.640 --> 10:44:39.640
Is that actual one?

10:44:39.640 --> 10:44:42.640
No, I just made that up.

10:44:42.640 --> 10:44:43.640
Okay.

10:44:43.640 --> 10:44:48.140
It's just an ongoing thing that frustrated me because I was playing and then camels just

10:44:48.140 --> 10:44:51.960
mugged my, who snarls, and my chat, you know, always your chat, you know, you're playing

10:44:51.960 --> 10:44:56.120
the game for the first time you're two days in and they they talk to you like you're dumb you

10:44:56.120 --> 10:45:02.520
know it's like didn't you know that camels scare horses horses are afraid of camels Yamato how did

10:45:02.520 --> 10:45:07.880
you not know this it's like yeah like I missed this day in school like I was supposed to know that

10:45:09.560 --> 10:45:18.040
yeah it isn't counterintuitive but the natural predator of the horse yeah camels hunt horses

10:45:21.960 --> 10:45:28.000
I can't imagine that. I can't imagine like riding camels into war like they contain them that well. That's kind of crazy

10:45:29.880 --> 10:45:31.880
Apparently you can elephants to

10:45:33.120 --> 10:45:35.120
Elephants be a little harder. I

10:45:35.560 --> 10:45:38.600
By the way, just got pigs cams. I think it is in here

10:45:39.800 --> 10:45:41.800
Let me just go ahead and set him up real quick

10:45:42.560 --> 10:45:45.600
Pig will be set up so they're gonna have both cams on the screen

10:45:46.240 --> 10:45:49.880
Let's go ahead and get you guys to just talk for a couple minutes as I'll be right back

10:45:49.880 --> 10:45:52.720
And I'll tell the players that they can start in just a few moments

10:45:52.720 --> 10:45:58.800
So the grandfathers is about to begin guys and you matter Captain Lance with me as co-casters give me a couple minutes

10:45:58.800 --> 10:46:02.560
I need to small call Grubby of course and you guys to entertain the viewers before we start

10:46:02.560 --> 10:46:04.080
Oh my goodness, the private coach

10:46:04.080 --> 10:46:07.160
Sorry, yeah, I can give you some more elephant facts apparently

10:46:07.760 --> 10:46:12.640
Accounted to elephants was dressing up as elephants because they don't want to hurt their own

10:46:13.720 --> 10:46:19.400
So armies that fought elephants figured out like we just need to dress as elephants and we care we have three wins

10:46:19.880 --> 10:46:26.560
How crazy is that you're making that up again right like no I'm not making that up

10:46:26.560 --> 10:46:32.000
is that actually again yeah that's a historical fact I'm trying to remember

10:46:32.000 --> 10:46:37.440
which general actually did this let me try to let me try to Google that way

10:46:37.440 --> 10:46:43.200
army dressed as elephants to counter elephants. Let's see.

10:46:43.200 --> 10:46:52.640
Some ancient Indian cavalry used clever disguises to stop their horse from panicking.

10:46:52.640 --> 10:46:56.360
Riders would attach fake trunks to their steed so the animals looked like

10:46:56.360 --> 10:47:01.520
elephant calves exploiting the maternal instincts of female war elephants.

10:47:01.520 --> 10:47:04.600
How crazy is that?

10:47:04.600 --> 10:47:05.600
That is crazy.

10:47:05.600 --> 10:47:08.320
Put some next level strats right there.

10:47:08.320 --> 10:47:09.320
Free win.

10:47:09.320 --> 10:47:14.160
Bro, imagine though, imagine being a general of old, you know, all these age of empires

10:47:14.160 --> 10:47:18.760
is there based on this, and you're sitting there theory crafting with human lives, you

10:47:18.760 --> 10:47:23.400
know, like imagine someone had a dumb ass idea that didn't get recorded in history, you know,

10:47:23.400 --> 10:47:25.400
some good ass idea.

10:47:25.400 --> 10:47:27.400
It's

10:47:28.520 --> 10:47:33.280
Out of box right there imagine it just doesn't work and you lose

10:47:34.560 --> 10:47:42.360
And then it's like oh shit guys honestly, let's queue up again another war a couple couple guys died for today was good test

10:47:43.800 --> 10:47:45.960
Those absolutely crazy

10:47:45.960 --> 10:47:53.520
I don't know because there's so many civilizations like almost any sim that I googled to find history facts

10:47:53.520 --> 10:47:58.220
There was always some kind of clash. It is crazy to consider how many wars were in the past

10:47:59.160 --> 10:48:05.060
Is how how accurate is age of empires really did people just fight over gold and stone and

10:48:06.400 --> 10:48:08.400
And relics

10:48:08.400 --> 10:48:10.400
Yeah, I think so too

10:48:12.200 --> 10:48:14.200
Conquest true true true

10:48:16.160 --> 10:48:20.280
Which which which which said did you like the most in terms of the voice lines?

10:48:20.280 --> 10:48:22.920
Was there any voice lines that spoke to you?

10:48:22.920 --> 10:48:24.920
Did you learn a new language playing H-of-M-Py's?

10:48:24.920 --> 10:48:26.120
No, I didn't learn a new language.

10:48:26.120 --> 10:48:28.520
I'll repeat what they say, but...

10:48:28.520 --> 10:48:30.200
Hey, give me some.

10:48:30.200 --> 10:48:33.800
I have no idea what they're reading when they say things.

10:48:33.800 --> 10:48:36.120
I like Japanese, I think, a decent amount.

10:48:36.120 --> 10:48:39.080
There's a few ones, though.

10:48:39.080 --> 10:48:43.640
Watashi, nani, it goes crazy.

10:48:43.640 --> 10:48:46.760
I like playing Japanese.

10:48:46.760 --> 10:48:50.000
You and I be only in the Japanese place.

10:48:50.000 --> 10:48:51.960
Fossil right on Marina, right?

10:48:51.960 --> 10:48:53.560
Yeah, yeah, the Ramorize.

10:48:53.560 --> 10:48:54.440
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

10:48:54.440 --> 10:48:56.040
But I was too scared.

10:48:56.040 --> 10:48:58.360
I thought, I thought might be the Ramorize.

10:48:58.360 --> 10:49:00.680
You went into a loss because he told you to jump over the wall.

10:49:00.680 --> 10:49:01.840
Screw you.

10:49:01.840 --> 10:49:03.200
That's not true at all.

10:49:03.200 --> 10:49:06.080
I told you to jump over the wall in a different scenario.

10:49:06.080 --> 10:49:07.680
I also told you to finish the castle.

10:49:07.680 --> 10:49:10.280
I gave him some good advice, man, honestly.

10:49:10.280 --> 10:49:15.120
Well, yeah, how to defeat the William Wallace campaign.

10:49:15.120 --> 10:49:17.120
Never forgetting that, by the way, like...

10:49:18.120 --> 10:49:19.120
I don't know...

10:49:19.120 --> 10:49:21.120
I'm like, man, Harold's like, alright.

10:49:21.120 --> 10:49:25.120
Yamada has 64 IQ. Let's walk him through the tutorial of the game.

10:49:25.120 --> 10:49:28.120
You picture through the baby training wheels?

10:49:28.120 --> 10:49:29.120
Yeah.

10:49:29.120 --> 10:49:33.120
The thing is, like, you actually benefited a lot from that.

10:49:33.120 --> 10:49:37.120
Like, I feel like that was good. If I had to do it again, I feel like I'd just do it again.

10:49:38.120 --> 10:49:41.120
I was teaching him how to walk and fight. It's good.

10:49:41.120 --> 10:49:42.120
By the way, that's cool.

10:49:42.120 --> 10:49:43.120
It's going down again. It's okay.

10:49:43.120 --> 10:49:48.120
No, no, you're not just learning. You learn very fast though, Yamato, for you, for your standards.

10:49:48.120 --> 10:49:54.120
Bro, I have new strats for tomorrow, by the way. New strats. You're gonna be amazed by my new strats.

10:49:54.120 --> 10:49:58.120
I actually can't believe you're playing tomorrow in the show, Matt. That's fantastic.

10:49:58.120 --> 10:50:01.120
It'll be team games, though. You have new strategies for team games.

10:50:01.120 --> 10:50:03.120
Yeah, yeah. I'm busting out the Pakistanis, bro.

10:50:06.120 --> 10:50:10.120
But let's focus on the finals, bro. We got a big finals. I'll talk about my strats some other day.

10:50:13.120 --> 10:50:15.400
What are you coming so I've got it back

10:50:19.120 --> 10:50:24.360
All right, let's do what you can do, but yeah, oh it's what you can do with the Pakistanis tomorrow

10:50:25.480 --> 10:50:29.440
But for now we have grubby versus pig. They're getting started the game one on Fortress

10:50:30.100 --> 10:50:34.760
Now just to explain what happened to the chat who might have missed it. We'll show you guys the bracket

10:50:35.320 --> 10:50:39.180
Grubby versus pig played a banger set yesterday in the upper bracket semifinals

10:50:39.180 --> 10:50:44.680
Pig actually just barely won out 3-2. He had a couple sneaky strategies and he caught Grubby off-guard.

10:50:44.680 --> 10:50:50.180
He also showed some really good form and some great overall preparation.

10:50:50.180 --> 10:50:57.680
Grubby played well, but just couldn't beat out Pig. He ended up falling 2-3.

10:50:57.680 --> 10:51:02.680
Pig, since then, has been undefeated. Took out Captain Lance as well, 3-2 in the upper bracket final.

10:51:02.680 --> 10:51:05.680
Great set as well. Of course, you have Captain Lance with us on the casting booth.

10:51:05.680 --> 10:51:15.680
So Pig finds himself the undefeated in the grand final, grab you with a hero, second life, and a loser bracket run for, you know, that should be remembered for years to come.

10:51:15.680 --> 10:51:25.680
I think he's really done well. There are four sets in a day. He's won three. He's got to win one more to claim the throne of the king's gauntlets, and both players are getting ready here.

10:51:25.680 --> 10:51:30.680
You can see them on camera. They're in the lobby, and they're waiting for the first map on Fortress.

10:51:30.680 --> 10:51:47.020
I don't know that's that's grab his weak point of anything but he has played so he like he's played more

10:51:47.020 --> 10:51:52.660
register is no more than any other play he might just know the the strike you guys look me on what

10:51:52.660 --> 10:51:57.660
he did on the previous register sides he's done a few is he Russian or is he booming he's played

10:51:57.660 --> 10:52:10.660
He's played Vietnamese, played a few different civilizations, I think he's even played Burgundians, but every single time he's went for a pretty big boom, but he's also taken the relics, and that's like a very interesting approach that Grubby's taken.

10:52:10.660 --> 10:52:20.660
Some of the other players have not taken this approach, like for example Pig, I know he just goes to the four TC's right away, he doesn't really play for those relics, so yeah, we'll see what Grubby does, I think he'll just stick to his guns.

10:52:20.660 --> 10:52:25.060
I don't know what CIV will play, but I highly doubt he'll deviate from the game plan.

10:52:25.060 --> 10:52:29.940
Captain Lance, not Captain Lance, as soon as he pig, always goes for Portuguese

10:52:29.940 --> 10:52:32.500
on the first map, on Rediset Fortress.

10:52:32.500 --> 10:52:34.660
It's his favorite save, he's played it every single time.

10:52:34.660 --> 10:52:37.380
He's a Portuguese player, he goes for TCs.

10:52:37.380 --> 10:52:39.620
Maybe he'll change it up now, I don't know.

10:52:39.620 --> 10:52:42.820
But if he doesn't change it up, he'll be playing the Portuguese here.

10:52:43.940 --> 10:52:49.380
Can you remind me of the Portuguese bonus to get lumber from berries?

10:52:49.380 --> 10:52:56.660
Yeah, from gathering. Yeah, and the organ guns whoo. I want to see the organ guns. Yeah organs are pretty clean

10:52:58.820 --> 10:53:00.740
We haven't seen too much of them so far though

10:53:00.740 --> 10:53:06.180
It's been played like mostly are blessed and halved here like mostly generic units, but the organ ones could be a nice adaptation

10:53:09.220 --> 10:53:15.780
I think the unique unique units is the lifeblood of the game. Yeah, usually master no matter what blindly

10:53:15.780 --> 10:53:20.780
and then loop around the enemy DC.

10:53:20.780 --> 10:53:25.780
Yeah, just get your unique units, loop around, do your thing. Pretty cool.

10:53:25.780 --> 10:53:31.780
It's a good way to play for sure, but it's not always that we see, like, it's not every day we see unique units.

10:53:31.780 --> 10:53:36.780
Most of the time we actually don't see them, except in your games you might not usually always go for them,

10:53:36.780 --> 10:53:40.780
but most of the time we're going to be playing something like, you know, generic unit lines,

10:53:40.780 --> 10:53:47.980
units with just like situationally good. I don't expect we're going to see that organ

10:53:47.980 --> 10:53:52.220
guns to be honest with you, but maybe I don't want to take your dreams down too early.

10:53:52.220 --> 10:53:58.540
Do organ guns do they count as gunpowder units? Yeah, they are. The gunpowder seed units,

10:53:58.540 --> 10:54:05.100
the count is both. So the archibos, like the upgrade works. All right. Yeah. Oh my, look at you,

10:54:05.100 --> 10:54:09.900
Yamato. You're literally paying attention. That's crazy. Of course, I'm learning so much. You're

10:54:09.900 --> 10:54:13.740
You're gonna see it tomorrow when I game, bro. That's fantastic. I think you might have lost to earlier

10:54:13.740 --> 10:54:15.740
I think a lot of hidden potential there

10:54:16.060 --> 10:54:17.660
100% yeah

10:54:17.660 --> 10:54:19.660
It's very hidden

10:54:19.740 --> 10:54:22.240
It's like finding Waldo bro. Oh

10:54:24.260 --> 10:54:26.260
It started

10:54:27.300 --> 10:54:29.300
Got a new pick oh

10:54:29.780 --> 10:54:35.700
My god pig is spicing it up. That's crazy pig is spicing it on John it is don John's no

10:54:35.700 --> 10:54:41.500
It could be it could be let me just break down the matchup first here grubby versus pig

10:54:41.740 --> 10:54:46.860
The finals the grand finals of the Kings Gauntlet welcome everyone and thank you so much for tuning in live

10:54:46.860 --> 10:54:51.700
Of course, if you watch this on YouTube later, thank you so much for viewing the videos and enjoying the content

10:54:51.700 --> 10:54:57.140
Hope you've hope you had a good tournament bit of a pause here grubby likes to take one minute to read the opponent civilization

10:54:57.140 --> 10:55:02.060
This is of course allowed and we have a best of five now to decide the whole thing pig

10:55:02.060 --> 10:55:07.940
Undefeated so far Grubby made a nice hero lower bracket run and this is game one on Redis at fortress

10:55:07.940 --> 10:55:13.360
If you lose the king you lose that's the rules here and with me Yamato and captain Lance Yamato

10:55:13.360 --> 10:55:17.940
What do you make of the situation here Vietnamese for grubby's played this before but Sicilians

10:55:17.940 --> 10:55:23.700
We haven't seen the Sicilians at all from pig on this mountain. It's coming. It's coming the donjons

10:55:23.700 --> 10:55:26.940
It's a Papa John tower delivery straight to the door

10:55:27.580 --> 10:55:31.940
15 minutes in they're gonna show up and they're gonna start producing this use it

10:55:31.940 --> 10:55:36.260
unit that can barely fight, barely build and he's going to lose slowly and

10:55:36.260 --> 10:55:41.060
regret his choice. The donjons are coming, bro. The donjons are coming.

10:55:41.060 --> 10:55:43.780
He's dying. He's going all salami, bro.

10:55:43.780 --> 10:55:48.340
Foul boom. Foul boom, halb cavalier from Captain Lance. That's your prediction there for the

10:55:48.340 --> 10:55:54.020
Sicilians? Yeah, I think that's a that's a good matchup. I don't think Veebnamese, I mean they

10:55:54.020 --> 10:55:57.300
have to go like elephants or elephants or something. I feel like that crushes the archers

10:55:57.300 --> 10:56:03.940
and the pointy boy is decently yes I mean a few options for both players of

10:56:03.940 --> 10:56:07.980
course I'll analyze them a little bit but I do I have to fix these cameras and

10:56:07.980 --> 10:56:13.340
fill boxes so we got these around production W has to stay for the

10:56:13.340 --> 10:56:20.180
grand finals of course there you go it's as good as it's getting

10:56:20.180 --> 10:56:28.560
A bit of an extended pause here, but grubby.

10:56:28.560 --> 10:56:32.000
With the Vietnamese, he's played this hit before, and he likes to play with some economy,

10:56:32.000 --> 10:56:37.280
you know, 3TC, monastery, a few Wrathen archers from the castle.

10:56:37.280 --> 10:56:40.720
Those guys are pretty solid overall, well-rounded archers, but they have a lot of pure summer,

10:56:40.720 --> 10:56:42.120
so they're quite good into other ranged units.

10:56:42.120 --> 10:56:44.200
And he'll like to control the map, of course.

10:56:44.200 --> 10:56:46.400
Control the map is nice.

10:56:46.400 --> 10:56:47.800
You get to play for the relics, of course.

10:56:47.800 --> 10:56:48.800
You get to fight for the hills.

10:56:48.800 --> 10:56:52.640
There's some extra gold and stones that are sprinkled around that you can take advantage of.

10:56:52.640 --> 10:56:56.000
The Sicilians on the other hand, a few options that you can go for it.

10:56:56.000 --> 10:56:59.760
So Papa John mentioned, of course, from Yamato, you can go for the Donjons.

10:57:00.960 --> 10:57:04.000
Those are like towers, not the ones you see here, these are just generic towers.

10:57:04.000 --> 10:57:07.760
So they can go for Donjons, similar, but they're bit beefier towers.

10:57:07.760 --> 10:57:10.640
And they can also make the unique unit from those towers, the Sargeants.

10:57:11.200 --> 10:57:13.680
A tanky infantry, unique units.

10:57:13.680 --> 10:57:17.360
Pretty good all-round tanky, medium damage infantry.

10:57:17.360 --> 10:57:22.680
pretty strong in open combat, slightly weak to archers, but not too weak either, it's

10:57:22.680 --> 10:57:24.440
quite tanky as I mentioned.

10:57:24.440 --> 10:57:28.200
And the Sicilians, I think the main part that they have here on this map, is that they build

10:57:28.200 --> 10:57:32.880
their town centers faster, and they also get a double benefit from their farm upgrades.

10:57:32.880 --> 10:57:38.680
For example, Horskuller, the first farm upgrade, gives an extra 75 wood to your farms.

10:57:38.680 --> 10:57:43.200
This is doubled to the Sicilians, so think of them as a great farming long term economy

10:57:43.200 --> 10:57:44.200
civilization.

10:57:44.200 --> 10:57:48.800
And here we are, a stack, please, from Grubby, but we're getting kicked off here for the Grand Finals. Very nice.

10:57:51.400 --> 10:57:54.600
How much faster do they build the TCs? What kind of numbers are we talking about here?

10:57:54.600 --> 10:58:02.600
100% faster. So twice as fast to build the Townsend as yet, which means you get more villagers out quicker for the boom, which is nice.

10:58:04.000 --> 10:58:06.000
Less build time there, obviously, very efficient.

10:58:06.000 --> 10:58:14.320
I need to see some rush strategies though bro you told me like the Sicilian units are tank

10:58:14.320 --> 10:58:15.320
here right?

10:58:15.320 --> 10:58:16.320
Yeah.

10:58:16.320 --> 10:58:17.320
Infantry units are tank here?

10:58:17.320 --> 10:58:18.320
Yeah.

10:58:18.320 --> 10:58:19.320
Like all of them.

10:58:19.320 --> 10:58:20.320
It's not only the sergeants right?

10:58:20.320 --> 10:58:21.320
No, no it's just the sergeants.

10:58:21.320 --> 10:58:23.480
So the sergeants are tanky infantry units.

10:58:23.480 --> 10:58:27.280
They have some tanky properties in their other units like for example all of their units

10:58:27.280 --> 10:58:29.520
are resisting bonus damage so that's pretty good.

10:58:29.520 --> 10:58:31.400
They resist a portion of the bonus damage.

10:58:31.400 --> 10:58:38.640
For example, Scurvy Scurm and the Scurm War Sicilians will be slightly favored for that bonus, but no, it's a Sergeant. It's quite tanky

10:58:38.640 --> 10:58:40.920
It could be used in a rush strategy, by the way

10:58:40.920 --> 10:58:42.360
We could see rams and sergeants

10:58:42.360 --> 10:58:49.320
But I think you're better off booming because you have really good boom bonuses and economy bonuses for Sicilians that you have to take advantage of I think

10:58:50.680 --> 10:58:55.660
Okay, okay, and the Don Jones, do they spawn the same unit as the castle?

10:58:55.660 --> 10:59:01.440
Yeah, exactly the unique unit the sergeant stay out of the castle same out of the tower

10:59:02.680 --> 10:59:07.420
That's okay. Then unless he's rushing I feel like it's kind of a

10:59:09.060 --> 10:59:12.500
Kind of bad then to play Sicilians

10:59:13.500 --> 10:59:15.500
Because the castle's kind of pointless

10:59:17.500 --> 10:59:19.500
Well, he's got a rush

10:59:19.580 --> 10:59:23.100
Yeah, I mean that's actually a decent point from your motto here

10:59:23.100 --> 10:59:26.960
So like Sicilians the unique unit is not good early in that's actually a really good point

10:59:27.240 --> 10:59:30.180
That's gonna give grubby a really good claim over the relic

10:59:30.180 --> 10:59:35.300
So like grubby is looking at this right now and grubby is feeling confident because he can just play his game with the Vietnamese

10:59:35.300 --> 10:59:40.500
He can make a few ratten archers. He can pick up those relics and he's gonna have a nice solid

10:59:40.500 --> 10:59:41.980
You know start to his game

10:59:41.980 --> 10:59:47.660
But the problem is if he just takes the relics and plays a standard game makes a few ratten archers and he's you know

10:59:47.660 --> 10:59:51.220
Okay, booming to imp the Sicilian economy can't be so good

10:59:51.220 --> 10:59:56.280
that there's a timing window where they can pressure onto the Vietnamese and just break them before the Vietnamese can get going

10:59:56.560 --> 11:00:02.320
Citizens also get seedram very strong siege. You also get good cavalry. You get good. How about the air?

11:00:02.560 --> 11:00:04.800
So you have a lot of good options for them in the late game

11:00:06.080 --> 11:00:11.980
Okay, I also noticed that the city inside with 300 stone. Yep. That's a dungeon stone right there

11:00:13.200 --> 11:00:15.200
Don John money, bro

11:00:15.920 --> 11:00:17.920
I don't want to see no TCS

11:00:17.920 --> 11:00:19.920
Yeah

11:00:20.560 --> 11:00:22.440
Captain Lance

11:00:22.440 --> 11:00:27.280
You're vibing, you know, maybe you're a little less hungry a little bit more rational you're vibing with the TC idea

11:00:27.280 --> 11:00:31.520
What do you make of the 300 so and what are we gonna see from Peggy's done it every game on register fortune so far?

11:00:31.520 --> 11:00:32.680
I

11:00:32.680 --> 11:00:38.080
Think he loves the 4 TC boom on this map. Yeah. Yeah, sorry to disappoint you mr.

11:00:38.080 --> 11:00:39.880
Yamato, I know you want to see some early dungeons

11:00:40.280 --> 11:00:45.160
Maybe a pizza to you, but I think it's him in 4 TC. He's done it every single game

11:00:45.160 --> 11:00:49.160
Of course, he's done it mainly with Portuguese, but here with the Sicilians

11:00:49.160 --> 11:00:52.160
You guys are the pros, you know, like, if he says so, alright

11:00:52.160 --> 11:00:57.160
Sorry, I don't want to disappoint you, you know, I never want to, but I think it's going to be the 40Cs

11:00:57.160 --> 11:01:00.160
And I think that 300 stones is going to help him out in the early game, which is very nice

11:01:00.160 --> 11:01:03.160
So it's actually a triple eco bonus if you think about it

11:01:03.160 --> 11:01:07.160
You get the stone right away, you build them faster, and then you have the longer-lasting farms

11:01:07.160 --> 11:01:10.160
Like, that's kind of crazy for a nice boom from the Sicilians

11:01:10.160 --> 11:01:16.980
I have to say though, something I didn't like about Regicide Fortress is that you slay the

11:01:16.980 --> 11:01:24.560
boars rather quickly and you can't control group your animals to like include the animal

11:01:24.560 --> 11:01:28.040
sound in your rotation as your APM maxing.

11:01:28.040 --> 11:01:31.480
So you just don't have an animal.

11:01:31.480 --> 11:01:35.360
So like you're telling me if you had like a cow, you'd like keep the cow control group

11:01:35.360 --> 11:01:37.360
so every now and then you can click the cow.

11:01:37.360 --> 11:01:43.760
I just you just move a little bit while you're moving your scalp. That's how you bring yourself back to the base

11:01:46.240 --> 11:01:48.240
You know keeps you going

11:01:49.400 --> 11:01:55.280
This is what Red Force taught me about anchoring sounds. He's got the anchor sounds you know

11:01:55.280 --> 11:02:00.720
He's just cure villager instantly no matter what you know, and then when you hear that move you just

11:02:01.080 --> 11:02:05.480
You feel a boost. What kind of coaching sessions are you having? It's crazy

11:02:05.480 --> 11:02:09.000
I gotta be honest. I don't think you got the lesson correct there

11:02:09.720 --> 11:02:14.240
Yeah, I feel like that means you're about to get housed you gotta build a house

11:02:15.760 --> 11:02:18.520
No, that's the villager sound kept lance. I think you're not paying attention

11:02:19.040 --> 11:02:23.480
That's the villager sound. No, no, it makes that sound when you're like three pop away from being housed

11:02:23.720 --> 11:02:28.480
That specific sound. Oh interesting a little bit different. Okay, damn

11:02:29.760 --> 11:02:31.760
There's layers of this coaching. This is crazy

11:02:31.760 --> 11:02:38.760
I got coached by Phosphor too and I'll tell you, that's what it is, he's given me the same lesson.

11:02:38.760 --> 11:02:44.760
This past my knowledge is something I added, that's like anchormaxing.

11:02:44.760 --> 11:02:51.760
That's the amount of special. Both players have to cast Lich in just a bit, grab you a little bit faster with the Vietnamese.

11:02:51.760 --> 11:02:56.760
As you can see, despite having the king be so important, they'll use the king to scout in the early game.

11:02:56.760 --> 11:03:00.960
early game has very long line of sight that also moves pretty fast so of course

11:03:00.960 --> 11:03:04.880
it is a very precious unit but in early game it's not really threatened by much

11:03:04.880 --> 11:03:09.360
so you can scout with it pretty freely. Grubby will keep his king safe in his

11:03:09.360 --> 11:03:13.320
castle now as the castle is coming in for him. Pretty standard approach nothing

11:03:13.320 --> 11:03:17.120
out of the ordinary for Grubby so far and pig a little bit later up but that's

11:03:17.120 --> 11:03:21.000
part of the course because that's exactly what he wants to go for if he

11:03:21.000 --> 11:03:24.280
wants to include his four towns in a boom. We go horse collar coming in now

11:03:24.280 --> 11:03:28.060
and both eco upgrades it looks like a standard boom on both sides no all in

11:03:28.060 --> 11:03:34.180
push nothing out of the usual. Watching that wood will we have the triple TC drop

11:03:34.180 --> 11:03:38.980
instantly with that exo stone? I think so. Will he reach enough wood with ten

11:03:38.980 --> 11:03:43.940
workers on it with this timing? I think he will and if he's missing a little he

11:03:43.940 --> 11:03:47.820
can always buy it since he has some villagers on gold so that like those gold

11:03:47.820 --> 11:03:51.060
villagers are really useful because you get to buy a little bit of like wood

11:03:51.060 --> 11:03:54.960
Food whatever you're missing. He actually takes two off, but it's pulling you. Yeah, that's fine

11:03:54.960 --> 11:03:59.040
You'll keep to be able to buy a hundred food or a hundred wood whatever he needs to keep that boom going

11:03:59.080 --> 11:04:01.120
He for sure will go for the 40s. He's done

11:04:05.360 --> 11:04:10.600
Something you've mentioned repeatedly is like that you should like throw in some castle units when you reach castle age

11:04:10.760 --> 11:04:13.840
Have you been seeing this more for place that people actually listen to you?

11:04:13.840 --> 11:04:20.260
Rubby tried it a little bit. We saw it earlier from Otofu actually. Obviously he dropped out a little earlier.

11:04:20.260 --> 11:04:24.300
He had a good run. Shout out to Otofu. He played some Castle units, some Genoceries with Turks.

11:04:24.800 --> 11:04:29.780
Ethermal's done a little bit of it. Captain Lance, you mixed in a few Castle units depending on your strategy.

11:04:30.100 --> 11:04:31.460
It's been done.

11:04:31.460 --> 11:04:35.500
This King's Gauntlet tournament has actually brought the best out of these players.

11:04:35.500 --> 11:04:38.980
They're starting to play closer and closer to Pro meta as the tournament went on.

11:04:38.980 --> 11:04:44.260
This is fantastic though. Three TCs, monastery right away. There we go. One Rathenarcher. Just to

11:04:44.260 --> 11:04:49.620
control the relic, protect that monk. Give you that nice consistent claim to those relics.

11:04:49.620 --> 11:04:52.100
Pig is three seconds away. Here we go. He's got the wood.

11:04:53.060 --> 11:04:59.060
And four TCs right away. Beautiful. That's a greedy one on the outside though with the

11:05:00.100 --> 11:05:05.380
sergeants. I don't know if he can defend unless he gets... Can you get the silver crown instantly?

11:05:05.380 --> 11:05:13.660
You could get it instantly well you could get in castle you get five units right out of every TC you buy it

11:05:13.700 --> 11:05:19.880
Yeah, it's not juicy it is but if you get it instantly you stop all your resources, then you can't really play the game so oh

11:05:20.780 --> 11:05:25.340
Gravity lost the scouts. It's not the king, but a scout going down is pretty bad for his rather control strategy

11:05:26.300 --> 11:05:28.580
You found out the hardware that the castle is there

11:05:31.100 --> 11:05:33.100
Damn

11:05:33.100 --> 11:05:37.100
bullet to the head end up dead

11:05:38.100 --> 11:05:44.700
okay do we see maximum I'm just looking at once they did just queuing builds

11:05:44.700 --> 11:05:50.040
holy moly we are doing builds a crucial farm upgrade here though I really want

11:05:50.040 --> 11:05:54.860
pig to pick up the heavy plow he might be skipping it on purpose depending on

11:05:54.860 --> 11:05:57.940
his preparation like maybe it's good to skip it because Sicilians with horse

11:05:57.940 --> 11:06:02.620
collar it's enough but if like you get heavy plow your farms never run out

11:06:02.620 --> 11:06:05.020
It's usually so much wood in the long term.

11:06:05.020 --> 11:06:07.340
Yeah, I agree with you, Captain Lance.

11:06:09.220 --> 11:06:11.140
But you think he's just forgotten it? I don't know.

11:06:12.740 --> 11:06:14.460
I think he's forgotten about the dungeons.

11:06:16.620 --> 11:06:19.060
If he remembered, it would just be able to look different.

11:06:19.500 --> 11:06:21.180
And no, but he can do them later, though.

11:06:21.180 --> 11:06:22.860
Like I stand.

11:06:22.860 --> 11:06:25.620
Yeah, I agree with you that the dungeons are very good, Yamato.

11:06:26.500 --> 11:06:27.900
But I don't kind of.

11:06:27.900 --> 11:06:29.340
I'm not going to lie. I just like them.

11:06:29.340 --> 11:06:30.940
I have a cool name.

11:06:30.940 --> 11:06:32.240
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

11:06:32.240 --> 11:06:34.840
Grubby has you thermal the couple villagers to the center of the map,

11:06:34.840 --> 11:06:36.440
and he's only now sending them back.

11:06:37.440 --> 11:06:38.640
A couple of Loomless villagers.

11:06:38.640 --> 11:06:40.740
He doesn't lose them, but that's very inefficient.

11:06:40.740 --> 11:06:42.240
He's you thermal them to the middle.

11:06:42.740 --> 11:06:43.940
Very, very bad thing to do.

11:06:43.940 --> 11:06:45.340
Never you thermal your villagers.

11:06:45.640 --> 11:06:46.340
And here we go.

11:06:46.340 --> 11:06:48.740
A relic in hand.

11:06:49.640 --> 11:06:50.040
Wait.

11:06:50.040 --> 11:06:51.840
Well, he's microing it back.

11:06:51.840 --> 11:06:53.440
Yeah, because Grubby sees that.

11:06:53.440 --> 11:06:55.840
To the Rattatouille archer.

11:06:55.940 --> 11:06:56.940
Yeah, that's good.

11:06:57.240 --> 11:06:58.140
Rattatouille coming in.

11:06:58.140 --> 11:07:01.220
I think he queued his monk to go to the next relic.

11:07:01.220 --> 11:07:02.940
I don't know if he notices it.

11:07:04.500 --> 11:07:07.100
So don't tell me Vietnamese monks are like Jack

11:07:07.100 --> 11:07:09.940
that can carry like three relics at the same time?

11:07:09.940 --> 11:07:11.780
No, no, just one relic at a time.

11:07:11.780 --> 11:07:14.020
Oh, he's just being a little sneaky, that's probably what it is.

11:07:14.020 --> 11:07:15.460
Yeah, he's crazy about this monk.

11:07:16.980 --> 11:07:19.060
He uses a walking stick usually when he walks

11:07:19.060 --> 11:07:20.820
and then he can walk with a relic like this.

11:07:20.820 --> 11:07:21.980
It looks heavy, bro.

11:07:21.980 --> 11:07:23.980
This relic gives power, man.

11:07:23.980 --> 11:07:26.220
Like, heals his bones.

11:07:26.220 --> 11:07:27.540
Yeah, it's so important.

11:07:27.540 --> 11:07:33.660
He's going crazy with that one, so it looks like Yamato here, that's how I know Yamato.

11:07:33.660 --> 11:07:37.260
Grubby has cleared the scout, so it's one scout dead on each side.

11:07:37.260 --> 11:07:41.260
Very very good for Grubby by the way, because now he can in peace pick up those relics.

11:07:41.260 --> 11:07:45.580
50c from Pig, this tells me something really specific.

11:07:45.580 --> 11:07:47.100
He will go for the unique tech.

11:07:47.100 --> 11:07:50.940
Yamato, that unique tech, as you said earlier, you'll get five sergeants from every town

11:07:50.940 --> 11:07:53.660
center and you haven't mentioned a lot about the donjins.

11:07:53.660 --> 11:07:54.940
It's time to talk about those guys.

11:07:54.940 --> 11:07:57.660
The donjons are actually really good in late game by the way.

11:07:57.660 --> 11:08:01.460
They're better than a generic tower and because you can build them with the sergeants, it's

11:08:01.460 --> 11:08:05.980
a very real strategy to go, you know, sergeants mount early and then you start dongeoning

11:08:05.980 --> 11:08:07.740
all over your opponent's base.

11:08:07.740 --> 11:08:10.580
It's a very, very good strategy and I feel like Grubby might not be able to deal with

11:08:10.580 --> 11:08:11.580
that.

11:08:11.580 --> 11:08:14.940
But 5TC boom is definitely a dongeon play, 100% from Pig.

11:08:14.940 --> 11:08:17.740
It's still missing that eco upgrade.

11:08:17.740 --> 11:08:19.460
So what about the cost of the donjon?

11:08:19.460 --> 11:08:22.940
Is it the same as a regular watch tower or is it higher?

11:08:22.940 --> 11:08:25.140
because he's not harvesting any stone yet.

11:08:25.140 --> 11:08:26.340
Yeah, it's a little higher.

11:08:26.340 --> 11:08:28.500
It's at 175 stone per.

11:08:28.500 --> 11:08:30.940
So it's quite expensive actually.

11:08:30.940 --> 11:08:32.340
And you don't need the stone right now.

11:08:32.340 --> 11:08:35.140
You only need the stone once you start getting the unit.

11:08:35.140 --> 11:08:36.980
So we can take stone in like five minutes

11:08:36.980 --> 11:08:38.100
and we're still fine.

11:08:38.100 --> 11:08:40.060
But look at this, he's got two towns and it's on stone.

11:08:40.060 --> 11:08:42.140
So he will for sure take stone at some point

11:08:42.140 --> 11:08:42.980
and he's starting right now.

11:08:42.980 --> 11:08:44.660
I believe he also got the stone mining upgrade.

11:08:44.660 --> 11:08:46.620
So it's gonna be starting some contracts.

11:08:46.620 --> 11:08:49.140
Look at the map, look at the map.

11:08:49.140 --> 11:08:50.580
It's blue everywhere.

11:08:50.580 --> 11:08:52.300
What is happening?

11:08:52.300 --> 11:08:58.420
Yes, something in every corner of the map broke grubby with the blue villages of playing hide and seek with each other

11:08:58.420 --> 11:09:00.420
Well, they're hiding in every corner of the map

11:09:01.060 --> 11:09:09.260
Yeah, the vision on these monsters crazy broke their eyesight is mental. Yeah, nine nine range in all directions

11:09:09.260 --> 11:09:14.540
Very very strong for vision control. It's freaking a vision grub. He's actually getting some outpost out in the field

11:09:14.780 --> 11:09:20.140
Grubby's done that in every single Reds at Fortress game and it's been so good for him winning these game once

11:09:20.140 --> 11:09:22.900
It's been so so good for him and I feel like pig

11:09:23.500 --> 11:09:26.260
He's trying to go for something a little sneaky he's adding in some rams

11:09:26.260 --> 11:09:30.020
I wonder if he's gonna do some castle to play or maybe some cap rams in the late game

11:09:30.340 --> 11:09:32.780
But what we see in a spot everything with these outposts

11:09:35.080 --> 11:09:37.080
Can consurgence enter

11:09:37.120 --> 11:09:43.460
Yes, yeah, cuz then if it pops in five rams, he's gonna have a massive push. Yeah, I think so as well

11:09:43.460 --> 11:09:45.980
We're seeing a lot of God would be with the production. Oh

11:09:45.980 --> 11:09:52.140
We're seeing it now, so it's not an imp push, it's a castlage push, but the rams are getting a little bit harassed, a little bit denied.

11:09:52.140 --> 11:09:55.100
Sees Workshop gets denied, he's gotta go for another one up top.

11:09:55.100 --> 11:10:00.860
So this is gonna be a late castlage. Rams and Sargent's push, I thought it would be an imp, they seem to go in castlage.

11:10:00.860 --> 11:10:05.820
Is Grubby gonna be able to prepare for that? I'm not sure, he's adding a range, probably for thumb ring.

11:10:05.820 --> 11:10:10.780
He's adding a few retin archers. This is very interesting, I don't know what to make of this, honestly.

11:10:10.780 --> 11:10:16.900
They can enter the ramps right? They can flint stone the ramps no problem.

11:10:16.900 --> 11:10:20.740
They can flint stone the ramps exactly as you can do with like the Japanese it's very

11:10:20.740 --> 11:10:25.140
very solid of course you can fell as first hand how good that is Mr. Yamato.

11:10:25.140 --> 11:10:32.180
Eleven on stone as well here is actually harvesting a lot of stone oh look at that pop woohoohoo.

11:10:32.180 --> 11:10:38.500
Twenty five units straight onto the field score lead for pig he's gonna flint the ramps.

11:10:38.500 --> 11:10:41.580
Oh, I'm lovin' this.

11:10:41.580 --> 11:10:43.180
Holy moly.

11:10:43.180 --> 11:10:45.220
Dude Grubby may be somewhat panicked.

11:10:45.220 --> 11:10:46.220
He's in for the mid-arms.

11:10:46.220 --> 11:10:48.060
He's trying to get some long shirts out.

11:10:48.060 --> 11:10:49.620
It's not a bad response.

11:10:49.620 --> 11:10:50.940
It's pretty good timing on it as well.

11:10:50.940 --> 11:10:53.900
Let's see if he clicks up the imp, or if he just plays a cast-alage defense.

11:10:53.900 --> 11:10:56.580
Well, he clicked imp, but he's gonna stay in cast-alage.

11:10:56.580 --> 11:11:00.100
So pretty cool from Grubby to recognize a cast-alage push.

11:11:00.100 --> 11:11:02.540
But Pig does have infillage behind him if he wants to.

11:11:02.540 --> 11:11:03.540
Rams are going in.

11:11:03.540 --> 11:11:04.540
Yamato, talk to me.

11:11:04.540 --> 11:11:06.700
What do you make of this?

11:11:06.700 --> 11:11:11.360
I'm like I don't like the fact that the Rams are in the same control group the two Rams in the back of slowing them down

11:11:12.100 --> 11:11:17.220
Okay, they're collecting them they're picking up. Yeah, they're gonna flint stone them. He's flint stone making to the wall

11:11:17.220 --> 11:11:20.940
Oh, this one only has one. This one's flowing down. I need I

11:11:22.140 --> 11:11:24.140
Need pig to sell that food

11:11:24.860 --> 11:11:29.420
You okay 1000 food just disappeared. He just queued 82 villages

11:11:30.820 --> 11:11:34.820
No, he's cute sergeants and he's cute sergeants. No, okay, okay

11:11:34.820 --> 11:11:37.840
Oh, the Bunger is in the front.

11:11:37.840 --> 11:11:39.200
Yeah, he's carrying a bunch of Sardines.

11:11:39.200 --> 11:11:40.240
So he's carrying a lot of Sardines.

11:11:40.240 --> 11:11:41.480
So it's all in Castlage.

11:11:41.480 --> 11:11:43.780
All in Castlage, but we're missing upgrades.

11:11:43.780 --> 11:11:45.700
Plus two armors coming in now, but take a look.

11:11:45.700 --> 11:11:46.560
Grubby is ready for this.

11:11:46.560 --> 11:11:47.800
He scouts it with the outpost.

11:11:47.800 --> 11:11:49.200
He knows exactly what's coming.

11:11:49.200 --> 11:11:51.540
Brilliant play from Grubby as well to control the vision.

11:11:51.540 --> 11:11:52.140
Thumb ring.

11:11:52.140 --> 11:11:53.240
Ballistic's coming in.

11:11:53.240 --> 11:11:54.580
It's going to be probably what?

11:11:54.580 --> 11:11:56.460
Like long swordsmen and archers?

11:11:56.460 --> 11:11:57.700
It's going to be crossbow long swords.

11:11:57.700 --> 11:11:58.200
No see.

11:11:58.200 --> 11:12:00.360
But where is the workshop?

11:12:00.360 --> 11:12:02.960
But there is a workshop upstairs.

11:12:02.960 --> 11:12:03.860
The mangos.

11:12:03.860 --> 11:12:10.440
No mangos though, no not a single mango lassie on the field for grubby. It's terrible. He's making one now

11:12:13.160 --> 11:12:17.200
The rams are coming in this is a scary push your motto, but we have the stone walls

11:12:17.200 --> 11:12:19.000
It's all about the dungeons

11:12:19.000 --> 11:12:22.560
You talked about the donors are coming up, bro. Oh, yeah, I'm just

11:12:23.880 --> 11:12:28.960
It's looking solid for pig. He's getting the forging upgrade second castle though for grubby

11:12:28.960 --> 11:12:32.000
He's trying to hold the manganese gonna help a lot from behind the walls

11:12:32.000 --> 11:12:35.200
Pig is really going for this one, but he's having trouble breaking through.

11:12:35.200 --> 11:12:36.200
There's a lot of archer fire.

11:12:36.200 --> 11:12:38.200
This is micro, the ram, just click him.

11:12:38.200 --> 11:12:41.200
Click the walls, enter breach.

11:12:41.200 --> 11:12:43.200
He's going for him, Otto.

11:12:43.200 --> 11:12:44.200
He's going for it.

11:12:44.200 --> 11:12:48.200
Oh, he's hitting walls in the back.

11:12:48.200 --> 11:12:50.200
He's having trouble breaking in.

11:12:50.200 --> 11:12:51.200
One ram in the front has died.

11:12:51.200 --> 11:12:54.200
There's a lot of archer fire coming in.

11:12:57.200 --> 11:12:59.200
I don't know if this is going to work.

11:12:59.200 --> 11:13:00.200
He's having trouble going in.

11:13:00.200 --> 11:13:02.200
40 alley traffic but it's too much traffic

11:13:05.320 --> 11:13:11.120
His RAM micro is not good. No, I think pig made me choke this one. Oh my god. Oh my god

11:13:11.120 --> 11:13:15.160
It's horrible. Gov takes a squirrel leave the manganese here. He can't enter the base

11:13:16.880 --> 11:13:20.180
The monks are doing work too. Yeah conversions

11:13:21.200 --> 11:13:26.620
They're back from their power walks the dungeons aren't that good because you don't have fleshing even on those dungeons

11:13:26.620 --> 11:13:31.920
We might break in here though, but even if we break in, there's a lot of armies getting arson

11:13:32.660 --> 11:13:37.200
It's a good tribe. I think grubby might be victorious in this first game just due to solid defense

11:13:40.420 --> 11:13:44.680
It's gonna go in wait, I gotta say decide any units. All right, they're coming in

11:13:45.220 --> 11:13:49.920
Okay, grubby has ballistic so two castles with a lot to die two castles when I spread out

11:13:49.920 --> 11:13:54.080
There's a lot of units going in here pig is really committing. There's two castles a couple manganals

11:13:54.080 --> 11:13:59.080
I'm not attacking anything he's clicking them kind of weird no error. He's just walking in. He's trying to attack anything

11:13:59.080 --> 11:14:03.840
All right, the manglebite the manglebite but nothing else. It's a disaster for Jake. It's a disaster for pig

11:14:05.040 --> 11:14:10.320
Donjins died to the manganout. No, no, this is terrible. Good for Grubby though. I can't believe I thought it don't guns, bro

11:14:10.400 --> 11:14:12.400
That's such a silly threat

11:14:15.280 --> 11:14:20.440
That's hard to watch man, there's a lot of power. I mean listen great defense though for Grubby

11:14:20.440 --> 11:14:26.260
You have good vision. He walled up. I think pig tried to force too hard through there

11:14:26.260 --> 11:14:30.040
He's gonna looped around you matter gonna look around to this side. You're gonna look to that side

11:14:30.300 --> 11:14:33.020
Didn't have to force through the castle. You don't have to do that

11:14:33.660 --> 11:14:38.500
Yeah, well, that's the brother. That's the first place you you defend, you know even in your house

11:14:38.500 --> 11:14:44.420
You know you lock your front door. Yeah, that's that's that's we're gonna most likely to attack from so you gotta get creative

11:14:44.420 --> 11:14:46.420
You know, yeah

11:14:46.420 --> 11:14:54.580
something. Well, I 100% agree here. Grubby, up in Purellage, Castle outside. I like that Grubby's

11:14:54.580 --> 11:14:59.700
continued to just play houses everywhere. Beautiful, this adaptation here from Grubby, great defense,

11:14:59.700 --> 11:15:03.940
double castle. I think he kind of panned into a little with the men of arms and then thought better

11:15:03.940 --> 11:15:07.860
of it. So like, he's like, nah, screw men of arms, they'll just stick to my trial and test of

11:15:07.860 --> 11:15:12.020
Wrathen archers, made a few crossbowmen as well, just to boost the production. Tons of rangers

11:15:12.020 --> 11:15:15.700
for the Vietnamese. It's a beautiful place to be in. Grubby very disciplined, picking up his

11:15:15.700 --> 11:15:19.600
economy upgrades after clearing up the push exactly what you have to do and the

11:15:19.600 --> 11:15:25.780
dungeons here going back to Papa John's they need to get their job back it's

11:15:25.780 --> 11:15:31.540
tough minimum wage yeah they're done now yeah I don't see I don't see the way

11:15:31.540 --> 11:15:35.820
back for Sicilians now they spent a lot of gold a lot of money for the upgrades

11:15:35.820 --> 11:15:43.900
I don't know what these guys are doing they're done bro they don't want to

11:15:43.900 --> 11:15:48.580
work no more man yeah okay let's talk about follow-up maybe Imperial Age could

11:15:48.580 --> 11:15:52.540
come in for pig and remember he could snipe the king game out of he could always

11:15:52.540 --> 11:15:56.380
snipe the king it is right aside so pig is likely to try a little bit more he's

11:15:56.380 --> 11:16:00.340
going gambesons this actually does not affect the sardons at all so not sure

11:16:00.340 --> 11:16:04.700
why he's picking that up you do a little bit of a waist attack but he could try

11:16:04.700 --> 11:16:09.860
another rampush in in inf actually you never know the rather to we are to

11:16:09.860 --> 11:16:11.860
Maybe we'll try to make scum

11:16:13.280 --> 11:16:18.100
You could go scum since then to have okay skirmishers not great. You're missing the last armor

11:16:18.780 --> 11:16:23.020
So since then scrimmages are just decent capitalized. What do you make of the situation for Sicilians?

11:16:23.020 --> 11:16:26.860
What could he possibly go for here that solves the situation grubby clearly with the massive

11:16:26.860 --> 11:16:29.420
He's going for Hobart to have a leader

11:16:32.180 --> 11:16:36.240
Yeah, he's he's he's queuing up stables right now in the middle of the base

11:16:36.240 --> 11:16:40.920
It's pretty smart. If you get that tech, they're now still making sergeants.

11:16:40.920 --> 11:16:43.840
I mean, you could make them a lead if you want to, once M hits.

11:16:43.840 --> 11:16:47.240
One minute, 45 till M. Grubby in M, a little faster here.

11:16:47.240 --> 11:16:51.520
Let's see what he goes for. Bracer chemistry. Elite Fire Lancer right away.

11:16:51.520 --> 11:16:55.760
Wow, he loves that unit. Bracer. Okay, interesting.

11:16:55.760 --> 11:17:02.240
That's so tough, though, because to pivot to horses now, his upgrade spread is just in the wrong direction.

11:17:02.240 --> 11:17:04.240
Actually it's forging but yeah

11:17:05.360 --> 11:17:12.400
He's not gonna take advantage of his spend money. Yeah all of infantry armor useless all of the bodkin arrow like stop

11:17:12.400 --> 11:17:16.360
I mean not useless because it still helps for the dungeons, but not really useful for the cap switch

11:17:16.360 --> 11:17:18.880
What are we having here grubby could get walled in?

11:17:18.880 --> 11:17:20.880
Let's do some juicy looping, bro. Oh

11:17:21.520 --> 11:17:22.640
Oh

11:17:22.640 --> 11:17:27.440
There's one path. There's one path through the forest. We're gonna find it. Wow gets out dude

11:17:27.440 --> 11:17:29.440
but this is a big raffle

11:17:29.440 --> 11:17:31.440
this is the most gangster loop I've ever seen bro

11:17:31.440 --> 11:17:33.440
he just looped, went behind the workshop

11:17:33.440 --> 11:17:35.440
found a little pocket

11:17:35.440 --> 11:17:37.440
that is...

11:17:37.440 --> 11:17:39.440
yo

11:17:39.440 --> 11:17:41.440
that's the type of pocket in the woods I'm not walking through

11:17:41.440 --> 11:17:43.440
in the middle of the night, you know

11:17:43.440 --> 11:17:45.440
you just know you're gonna get kidnapped by a werewolf

11:17:45.440 --> 11:17:47.440
in this case

11:17:47.440 --> 11:17:49.440
grubby is fearless though, he just goes for it

11:17:49.440 --> 11:17:51.440
and this is escape route

11:17:51.440 --> 11:17:53.440
from the little trap that pig had on him

11:17:53.440 --> 11:17:55.440
like the house walls here

11:17:55.440 --> 11:17:57.940
Securing a lot of space to just add in some farms.

11:17:57.940 --> 11:18:01.360
Criminal, by the way, that we don't have heavy plow at this point as Sicilians.

11:18:01.360 --> 11:18:03.060
Absolutely criminal.

11:18:03.060 --> 11:18:04.400
And it's gonna be the Cavalier here.

11:18:04.400 --> 11:18:07.600
Let me talk a little bit about Sicilian Cavalier when the Unique Tech comes in.

11:18:07.600 --> 11:18:10.680
There's a Golden Crown, a Unique Tech for the Sicilians.

11:18:10.680 --> 11:18:11.580
Alright?

11:18:11.580 --> 11:18:15.840
And once that comes in, they will get plus 2 Pierce Armor on their Cavalry,

11:18:15.840 --> 11:18:17.640
as well as an extra melee armor.

11:18:17.640 --> 11:18:20.640
So it makes the Cavalier really tanky.

11:18:20.640 --> 11:18:23.140
It's extremely strong, hard to deal with.

11:18:25.440 --> 11:18:29.280
Grubby does have the relics, though he's got four relics.

11:18:29.280 --> 11:18:30.560
I think there's a fifth one on the map.

11:18:30.560 --> 11:18:34.400
Oh my god, that extra stone is like, got Pig's name on it.

11:18:34.400 --> 11:18:36.240
That's going to be nice for him in the late game.

11:18:36.240 --> 11:18:38.920
Grubby has looped behind Pig's base.

11:18:38.920 --> 11:18:39.920
We can have a quick one here.

11:18:39.920 --> 11:18:41.760
Grubby is just playing like a pro hero.

11:18:41.760 --> 11:18:42.760
Yeah.

11:18:42.760 --> 11:18:44.480
Like, this is the most pro-esque.

11:18:44.480 --> 11:18:45.960
Like, his units are always moving.

11:18:45.960 --> 11:18:46.960
He's so busy.

11:18:46.960 --> 11:18:49.160
He's stealing proxy gold all over the map.

11:18:49.160 --> 11:18:50.160
Vision everywhere.

11:18:50.160 --> 11:18:51.160
Oh.

11:18:51.160 --> 11:18:52.160
Prevents the trap.

11:18:52.160 --> 11:18:54.160
Tried to go for the trap.

11:18:54.160 --> 11:18:59.160
Didn't get it though good looping though good looping from grubby now all of this farmland has to run

11:18:59.760 --> 11:19:02.000
Oh, a lot of values. Yep

11:19:03.520 --> 11:19:08.040
Honour just coming in I don't see cat brown. I think seed jam is really good honor to not so much seed

11:19:08.040 --> 11:19:11.160
Jam's very good though. It's gonna be heavy scorpion them. He's going for a lot of siege a

11:19:11.840 --> 11:19:14.580
Seeds and maybe sardine siege could be a nice one

11:19:16.520 --> 11:19:22.560
I piggy you gotta sell your stone you gotta get your upgrades quicker. Yeah sell that stone, baby

11:19:24.840 --> 11:19:29.160
Yeah, I actually don't mind that cell stone option because you know before a lot of seeds that cost a lot of gold

11:19:29.920 --> 11:19:32.480
Paper money is in paper money in the chat boys

11:19:33.000 --> 11:19:37.320
Grubby's gonna get paid nice honor to shots though on those wrapped in archers wrapped the two we down

11:19:38.360 --> 11:19:42.680
Blasphermen is not coming in it's gonna be sergeant siege and we're going for all kinds of siege units

11:19:43.480 --> 11:19:46.320
Dude grubby's playing a very good money. Tell me about paper money

11:19:46.320 --> 11:19:51.600
I have a paper money any day of the week your model paper money when the Vietnamese they chop some wood

11:19:51.600 --> 11:19:56.320
They get a little bit of gold from dropping that wood so it's not just the gold from the minerals

11:19:56.320 --> 11:19:59.040
It's also the gold from the trees now you matter. How do you feel about that?

11:20:00.080 --> 11:20:05.780
No, that's that's juicy, but I gotta say captain. I agree with you, bro. Grubby is playing crazy, bro

11:20:05.780 --> 11:20:09.320
I feel like he's just gotten better. No, he's got so much better

11:20:12.040 --> 11:20:14.040
Yeah, it looks like it to be honest like grubby

11:20:14.360 --> 11:20:18.380
Sometimes you need that loss to really just kick you into that next year to learn a lot from the mistakes

11:20:18.380 --> 11:20:22.840
He made it in the first set. We have a rematch now. Grubby, of course, did lose the Pig last set

11:20:23.540 --> 11:20:28.260
But he did win the Redset Fortress in that set as well. So let's see if you know

11:20:28.260 --> 11:20:31.620
Maybe it was a little bit of a repeat here Grubby taking that first win again

11:20:31.620 --> 11:20:34.640
It could be the case although I think it's still a lot closer than we think it is

11:20:34.640 --> 11:20:36.640
Have you plowed now coming in for Sicilians?

11:20:36.780 --> 11:20:43.020
The only issue though for Mr. Pig is the fact that he's got no relics. There's four for Grubby

11:20:43.020 --> 11:20:45.660
I'm still looking for the fifth one. I haven't found it by the way

11:20:45.660 --> 11:20:48.740
There's a fifth relic somewhere and I just can't find it for the life of me

11:20:48.740 --> 11:20:53.340
So if somebody sees that fifth relic just let me know where it is because I can't see it at all

11:20:54.580 --> 11:20:56.580
Isn't it next to the castle up top?

11:20:58.460 --> 11:21:04.600
One of my those little gold I'm lying. No, it's okay bro. It's hard grubby's monk has it

11:21:06.260 --> 11:21:10.280
He's deposited it five relics for grubby five relics for grubby

11:21:10.280 --> 11:21:15.380
dude pig has to win with all of his gold now he's gonna have a big deathball

11:21:15.380 --> 11:21:20.180
those a lot of siege bro there's a lot of siege on the field oh maybe hit here

11:21:20.180 --> 11:21:27.740
can they hit oh so close close grabby correctly backs off grabby's got that

11:21:27.740 --> 11:21:30.660
middle hill and grabby's trying to go for this bottom hill but you know it's

11:21:30.660 --> 11:21:35.140
already kind of occupied by pig elite sergeants coming in you matter what do

11:21:35.140 --> 11:21:38.300
you make of this second kind of breath bush with the Rams I feel like this is

11:21:38.300 --> 11:21:40.740
kind of your thing, but you see it in a pure lit now.

11:21:40.740 --> 11:21:41.580
It's copium.

11:21:41.580 --> 11:21:42.420
It's copium.

11:21:42.420 --> 11:21:44.260
This is like when someone shows you the flip phone

11:21:44.260 --> 11:21:46.540
and you're already on your own iPhone 8, you know,

11:21:46.540 --> 11:21:49.380
like this is outdated, man.

11:21:50.660 --> 11:21:52.380
I'm liking the split.

11:21:52.380 --> 11:21:54.940
I'm just looking at that cavalry cow.

11:21:54.940 --> 11:21:57.300
I need more horses to show up on the cavalry cow.

11:21:57.300 --> 11:21:58.580
I need it to be queued up.

11:21:58.580 --> 11:22:00.940
I need it to spend, spend, spend.

11:22:00.940 --> 11:22:04.220
I need to see, like, I want a burst of like 20 horses

11:22:04.220 --> 11:22:07.540
just coming in like it's that final scene

11:22:07.540 --> 11:22:12.540
when the Baratheon dude comes in with the horses

11:22:12.540 --> 11:22:14.900
and to win the war.

11:22:14.900 --> 11:22:15.740
I got you, bro.

11:22:15.740 --> 11:22:16.580
I guess the bastards.

11:22:16.580 --> 11:22:17.420
Yeah, I know what you're talking about.

11:22:17.420 --> 11:22:18.780
Yeah, I actually know what you're talking about.

11:22:18.780 --> 11:22:19.620
You know what I see?

11:22:19.620 --> 11:22:21.620
I finally got a matter of reference.

11:22:21.620 --> 11:22:22.460
Yes, bro.

11:22:22.460 --> 11:22:24.620
Jon Snow standing in the center, and then he comes up.

11:22:24.620 --> 11:22:25.460
That is the matter of the day.

11:22:25.460 --> 11:22:27.580
Yeah, I remember that.

11:22:27.580 --> 11:22:28.420
I think that would be good.

11:22:28.420 --> 11:22:30.980
I think more Cavalry Leader would be fantastic.

11:22:30.980 --> 11:22:32.140
I also want to see Capram.

11:22:32.140 --> 11:22:33.140
Like, if we're going to commit to the ramps,

11:22:33.140 --> 11:22:36.740
I want to see Capram and Seedram go all in on the siege.

11:22:36.740 --> 11:22:39.380
Grubby's trying to kill this castle, in fact he probably will be successful.

11:22:39.380 --> 11:22:40.880
Ram's coming over though.

11:22:40.880 --> 11:22:42.580
The castle will probably fall for Grubby.

11:22:42.580 --> 11:22:44.660
Grubby hits it, and he's trying to run.

11:22:44.660 --> 11:22:45.560
Bro, we need one more hit.

11:22:45.560 --> 11:22:47.860
Oh my god, he's gonna run away before the castle goes down.

11:22:47.860 --> 11:22:49.160
Oh, oh, oh, oh, prepare!

11:22:49.160 --> 11:22:50.960
Meanwhile though, pushing the front, pushing the front.

11:22:50.960 --> 11:22:52.460
Fire Lance is coming in!

11:22:52.460 --> 11:22:55.860
Grubby's looking to take out the siege, and I don't think Pig is watching.

11:22:55.860 --> 11:22:57.200
Pig's got no front line.

11:22:59.600 --> 11:23:00.340
They're all in the Ram's.

11:23:00.340 --> 11:23:01.540
Where's the horse production?

11:23:01.540 --> 11:23:03.380
Where's the horse production guy?

11:23:04.180 --> 11:23:05.240
All the units are in the Ram.

11:23:05.240 --> 11:23:07.580
He was still in the ramps, but he didn't have time to do that.

11:23:09.240 --> 11:23:10.080
Gee.

11:23:14.380 --> 11:23:15.820
Grabbing loses his castle there.

11:23:15.820 --> 11:23:17.180
Dude, the score is really close.

11:23:17.180 --> 11:23:21.580
I don't think this is as over as we've been kind of thinking for a game.

11:23:21.580 --> 11:23:24.980
We've charged and kind of just cooked those Harlan through like easily.

11:23:24.980 --> 11:23:27.720
Yeah, they have six plus three melee armor.

11:23:27.720 --> 11:23:28.260
Are you serious?

11:23:28.260 --> 11:23:29.960
They have nine melee armor.

11:23:29.960 --> 11:23:32.020
Oh, that's kind of crazy.

11:23:32.020 --> 11:23:33.660
Dude, Fire Luster does 12 attacks.

11:23:33.660 --> 11:23:38.740
To silence or hit these guys for 3 damage, they take it like no damage or so tanky.

11:23:38.740 --> 11:23:40.140
That's kind of insane.

11:23:40.140 --> 11:23:42.100
Oh, really?

11:23:42.100 --> 11:23:47.500
Vita raids, but nothing crazy.

11:23:47.500 --> 11:23:51.460
I feel like the only problem that Pig has is the fact that he's out of gold now.

11:23:51.460 --> 11:23:53.740
All of his units are costing gold, so he's like kind of all in.

11:23:53.740 --> 11:23:56.540
And he's using that time being all in to just clear up random towers?

11:23:56.540 --> 11:23:57.540
I think that's terrible.

11:23:57.540 --> 11:24:00.140
I think you gotta launch a push, try to make something happen aggressively.

11:24:00.140 --> 11:24:03.820
Oh no, the trebs.

11:24:03.820 --> 11:24:08.140
Oh, the pain of losing your trebs like this.

11:24:08.140 --> 11:24:10.220
But the honorger's there.

11:24:10.220 --> 11:24:12.140
Yeah, that one honorger's gonna clutch.

11:24:12.140 --> 11:24:17.780
Yeah, last one's coming out, you gotta leave.

11:24:17.780 --> 11:24:20.260
And I think Grubby smartly backs out there.

11:24:20.260 --> 11:24:22.140
You don't want to take any risky fights.

11:24:22.140 --> 11:24:24.140
You already got control of the map.

11:24:24.140 --> 11:24:25.140
I'm really surprised.

11:24:25.140 --> 11:24:28.500
See, the honorger coming in for Pig!

11:24:28.500 --> 11:24:30.760
That is one of the most expensive upgrades in the game.

11:24:30.760 --> 11:24:34.400
Think Paladin, but for Siege Onager, it's even more expensive than Paladin.

11:24:34.400 --> 11:24:39.440
It's an upgrade to the Onagers yet again into one of the best units in the game, a unit

11:24:39.440 --> 11:24:42.800
that can swing any fight if you land the correct shot.

11:24:42.800 --> 11:24:48.200
Ladies and gentlemen, it counters every unit that Grubby currently has on the field, barring

11:24:48.200 --> 11:24:49.200
the Bombard Cannon.

11:24:49.200 --> 11:24:51.880
Siege Onager kills everything else by far.

11:24:51.880 --> 11:24:55.680
And I don't know how good Grubby's Bombard Micro is, but we're about to find it.

11:24:55.680 --> 11:24:56.680
We're about to find out.

11:24:56.680 --> 11:25:01.760
It's gonna get tested right now, but it's two minutes to the upgrade. This is huge play from pig. Wow

11:25:03.760 --> 11:25:10.720
All right, pig don't lose these mangoes in the front you need them for the upgrade to pop yep, but I was low repair that one

11:25:12.360 --> 11:25:16.960
He's got to prepare you gotta just not risk like not risk the fight beforehand tap around dude

11:25:16.960 --> 11:25:22.680
So much siege for pig right now shout out wagamama wagamama a guy who played on the roster as well

11:25:22.680 --> 11:25:26.020
Well, didn't make it as far as Pig, but played a lot of infantry and a lot of siege.

11:25:26.520 --> 11:25:28.840
And here we've seen some representation for that army class.

11:25:31.240 --> 11:25:34.280
The bomb birds are picking this army apart, it's moving so slow.

11:25:34.680 --> 11:25:36.960
You matter, oh my god, you matter, you don't like this, eh?

11:25:37.760 --> 11:25:40.920
He's lashing all the units together, oof, oof, it's pain.

11:25:40.920 --> 11:25:42.120
It's painful, you need to step right there.

11:25:42.120 --> 11:25:43.240
But they're just shooting hoops.

11:25:44.200 --> 11:25:47.160
They're just shooting hoops in the backyard, bros, crazy.

11:25:47.880 --> 11:25:50.360
That's just three points for a step carry, bro.

11:25:50.360 --> 11:25:53.920
Haha, you're going for some like tab now.

11:25:53.920 --> 11:25:55.480
Trying to adapt into what he's seeing.

11:25:55.480 --> 11:25:59.440
Mass Siege to your honor and attack is in, but we have no honorgers on the field.

11:25:59.440 --> 11:26:00.440
We got one honorger.

11:26:00.440 --> 11:26:05.840
Like Pig has a legitimate chance to win.

11:26:05.840 --> 11:26:10.200
Siege Ram, few honorgers, Mass Siege, wipe the base, one shot.

11:26:10.200 --> 11:26:13.480
Very legit chance to win, but you just have to get organized.

11:26:13.480 --> 11:26:14.480
You just have to get organized.

11:26:14.480 --> 11:26:17.160
Few sergeants raid not a bad preliminary fight

11:26:20.760 --> 11:26:24.120
I like that but these guys in a loop pro like

11:26:27.520 --> 11:26:32.720
Here's a lasso target of the whole army just walking around so slowly yeah

11:26:34.760 --> 11:26:39.540
And you gotta be careful it's in yes a fight because the gold is gonna be a problem

11:26:39.540 --> 11:26:41.400
Yeah, he's not gonna he's not gonna be able to produce

11:26:41.400 --> 11:26:46.900
So a huge problem. He sold a lot of his resources for just a little bit of gold like that 1500 food sold with 200 gold

11:26:46.900 --> 11:26:53.420
He's picking up seed ram. He needs one less tech each engineers to give himself one extra range on the onators

11:26:53.420 --> 11:26:58.240
If he doesn't get this tech his army is significantly nerfed if he does get it

11:26:58.240 --> 11:27:02.180
They're fully upgraded. So let's see if he picks it up with an expensive tech from the university

11:27:02.340 --> 11:27:05.260
He does have a university to back though. Let's see if he picks it up

11:27:05.580 --> 11:27:10.380
Hey, you have to remember this one any coach that ever doesn't to play siege with them to pick up pick up that tech

11:27:10.380 --> 11:27:12.380
Grubby's got a lot of traps here though.

11:27:12.380 --> 11:27:13.380
Oh my days.

11:27:13.380 --> 11:27:14.380
Undefended trebuchets.

11:27:14.380 --> 11:27:16.380
Oh my god.

11:27:16.380 --> 11:27:18.380
That's pretty money.

11:27:18.380 --> 11:27:22.380
This is a Yamada cannon flashback to when I played against the Tothonic Fortress.

11:27:22.380 --> 11:27:24.380
I just gifted trebs like this.

11:27:24.380 --> 11:27:27.380
We gotta kill them though.

11:27:27.380 --> 11:27:29.380
The gift needs to be unwrapped.

11:27:29.380 --> 11:27:30.380
Alright.

11:27:30.380 --> 11:27:31.380
There it is.

11:27:31.380 --> 11:27:32.380
It is down.

11:27:32.380 --> 11:27:34.380
Ah, the chat saying 3-2-2.

11:27:34.380 --> 11:27:36.380
It's a lot of gold lost for Grubby to be honest.

11:27:36.380 --> 11:27:38.380
And the honorors can be so deadly right now.

11:27:38.380 --> 11:27:43.780
No, friendly fire!

11:27:43.780 --> 11:27:46.780
Friendly fire, it's a real thing though, you gotta watch out!

11:27:46.780 --> 11:27:47.780
No!

11:27:47.780 --> 11:27:54.700
You got a lot of traps to roll, Pig has such a good army, but he has to just bring it

11:27:54.700 --> 11:27:55.700
all together.

11:27:55.700 --> 11:27:59.540
We have all the army in the same spot, the rams are going up from the side, he's looping

11:27:59.540 --> 11:28:00.540
over two rams.

11:28:00.540 --> 11:28:01.540
Okay, okay.

11:28:01.540 --> 11:28:02.540
That's pretty strange.

11:28:02.540 --> 11:28:06.080
Oh big shots the big shots didn't see John and you're

11:28:08.460 --> 11:28:10.460
Any more sergeants on the fields

11:28:11.940 --> 11:28:15.000
What are these straight trebuchets do it they're just killing them and

11:28:18.540 --> 11:28:26.780
Okay, they're to bait the scouts into the castle fire nice tasty nice tasty bait I like that I like that captain

11:28:28.100 --> 11:28:31.480
A lot of like you see captain. Tell me your vision, man

11:28:32.540 --> 11:28:35.620
I'm seeing big hella out of golds when I'm still here.

11:28:35.620 --> 11:28:37.620
He's drained for golds.

11:28:37.620 --> 11:28:39.620
Nice little push here with the C-Dram.

11:28:39.620 --> 11:28:41.620
Sartan's coming out, very hard to deal with,

11:28:41.620 --> 11:28:43.120
but look he's already switching to Pykeman.

11:28:43.120 --> 11:28:44.220
That's a really bad sign.

11:28:44.220 --> 11:28:46.220
Having to play Pykeman?

11:28:46.220 --> 11:28:49.220
I don't think that's really that good into Fire Lancers.

11:28:49.220 --> 11:28:51.900
I think Grubby will win just due to having the gold.

11:28:51.900 --> 11:28:53.900
The relics, such a big factor here.

11:28:55.180 --> 11:28:58.180
I really like how Grubby's using the life-cabinery.

11:28:58.180 --> 11:29:01.180
It's just so expendable with how much food he has.

11:29:01.180 --> 11:29:01.680
Yep.

11:29:02.180 --> 11:29:05.980
Just randomly have 30 of them raiding, attacking all the...

11:29:05.980 --> 11:29:06.480
But?

11:29:06.480 --> 11:29:07.480
C units.

11:29:07.480 --> 11:29:10.180
Grubby's having trouble. Oh my god. Grubby is down to 150 pop.

11:29:10.180 --> 11:29:12.080
He's having trouble. He can't clear up the sergeants.

11:29:12.080 --> 11:29:15.980
He's got no unit that kind of counters these directly. The Arbalas soft counter them.

11:29:15.980 --> 11:29:19.680
C Jumps are also kind of hard to deal with. He's getting raided all over the place.

11:29:19.680 --> 11:29:23.080
And yeah, he's sending in the light cap, but they're kind of just dying to the sergeants.

11:29:23.080 --> 11:29:24.580
The sergeants have no answer.

11:29:25.180 --> 11:29:28.080
130 pop for Grubby. Dude, the score is closer than ever.

11:29:28.080 --> 11:29:35.080
I think I'm a bad about disrespecting Sarge's going into this, I thought they kinda saw it.

11:29:35.080 --> 11:29:40.080
You weren't for the lead upgrade, turn them into chads!

11:29:40.080 --> 11:29:43.080
They're on kill'em!

11:29:43.080 --> 11:29:48.080
I almost wish that pig waited for the lead upgrade by the way, that pushing castleage, it didn't work out,

11:29:48.080 --> 11:29:51.080
and I feel like it has sapped so much of his gold, you matter.

11:29:51.080 --> 11:29:55.080
I don't like that a lot, I like that Pure Blade is a lot better, 120 pot for Grubby, dude, this guy!

11:29:55.080 --> 11:29:59.000
guy he's struggling he's at 98 bills now

11:30:00.560 --> 11:30:04.520
I like how many production buildings the grubby has though it gives him options

11:30:04.520 --> 11:30:10.560
you just need to use his resources he has to use a well but with all these racks

11:30:10.560 --> 11:30:14.240
you know that this is a panic pivot into the pikeman because they are so

11:30:14.240 --> 11:30:18.360
cheap yep see the engineers is then though that's the last tech for the

11:30:18.360 --> 11:30:22.520
seeds and they give on a just plus one range it gives all the siege plus one

11:30:22.520 --> 11:30:26.180
range and extra damage to buildings. It's a very good upgrade. Pig has remembered to

11:30:26.180 --> 11:30:31.040
get it. He's got a huge army in the field. He's 200 pop. Grubby is bringing his army

11:30:31.040 --> 11:30:37.520
in, but they're all walking in pretty slow. What a game one. What a game one between these

11:30:37.520 --> 11:30:45.320
two players, by the way. Holy moly. Honestly, I thought it was completely over for Pig,

11:30:45.320 --> 11:30:51.080
but he's somehow, somehow he's cooking. Dude, the elite sergeants completely caught

11:30:51.080 --> 11:30:56.300
It's all of guard even I and he found gold. Yes gold. He found gold. He's got some gold

11:30:57.100 --> 11:30:59.680
He had golden on the left. He's taking that one. It's the last bit of gold

11:30:59.680 --> 11:31:05.940
But that little bit of gold can kind of surmount or launch a push that could overtake grubby

11:31:06.900 --> 11:31:11.340
You never know but grubby so far is holding a little bit of a raid coming through castle on defense

11:31:11.340 --> 11:31:17.140
We could pass the raid. We could even kink snap one day. Maybe but that's obviously a far-fetched dream

11:31:18.660 --> 11:31:20.660
A lot of fighting on the front here

11:31:21.080 --> 11:31:26.720
Probably has no gold production. It's only the relics

11:31:30.200 --> 11:31:36.280
What are you doing probably the army is not that strong it's okay, but most of it this is skirmishers

11:31:37.400 --> 11:31:40.320
And I feel like I need to ask her up. Please. Sorry, brother

11:31:40.320 --> 11:31:45.340
Is this common to have 64 on lumber instead of making farms with Vietnamese because of the paper money?

11:31:46.160 --> 11:31:48.800
Yes, and no, it's okay because you do get a little bit extra gold

11:31:48.800 --> 11:31:52.060
But I think you could use some more farms because he's having a lot of like have that take the food

11:31:52.060 --> 11:31:56.800
I think you would like to have at least like 60 farms right now. It's a good question. You're matter though. It's a good question

11:31:57.920 --> 11:31:59.920
Okay, sir

11:32:00.240 --> 11:32:02.920
Bombards on the castle. Oh, you will kill the castle

11:32:04.200 --> 11:32:06.840
Huge fight huge fights. Pig is going for it

11:32:08.000 --> 11:32:09.800
Hygman

11:32:09.800 --> 11:32:13.880
Sergeant's on the front like half diving the bombards. It's gonna get the bombards the castles down pigs

11:32:13.880 --> 11:32:17.400
I think the score lead pig is gonna take the score lead. I can't believe it

11:32:17.400 --> 11:32:22.200
Rubby's overextended and Pig is punishing him. Oh my god.

11:32:22.200 --> 11:32:26.400
That's crazy. No way.

11:32:26.400 --> 11:32:31.840
No way. Dude, Pig is so funny. Are the Scourges?

11:32:31.840 --> 11:32:35.160
The Scourges are useless though. He has no range units.

11:32:35.160 --> 11:32:40.400
Kind of. They are in Skirm, so in theory they should be quite decent for the Vietnamese, but

11:32:40.400 --> 11:32:44.000
Pig is not playing into them. The Army's coming forward. We have a siege orager on the field.

11:32:44.000 --> 11:32:47.360
It's gonna make sure all the scrims boom they shot the skirt triple

11:32:48.480 --> 11:32:50.480
This is under his trees

11:32:55.760 --> 11:32:57.920
Genius lowering the lumber supply on the map

11:32:58.960 --> 11:33:02.720
If he's going to own the lower the lumber slot it's a pile on his side of the map though

11:33:03.600 --> 11:33:08.800
But no, it's the counterplay paper money guys you outplay paper money by taking out the trees

11:33:09.520 --> 11:33:11.520
Smart think about it

11:33:11.520 --> 11:33:19.240
Well, I can't read the field for grubby and like that from Sicilian are stronger. They're gonna be patrolling victims and raids grubbies

11:33:19.340 --> 11:33:23.960
Open on the back by the way the raids can come heavy king, of course safe at the back for the time being

11:33:25.160 --> 11:33:29.720
Honor your shots honestly grubbies doing great job dodging the honor shots. I will say

11:33:31.040 --> 11:33:34.680
Grubbies playing a fantastic game against the honorors has not played into them at all

11:33:36.000 --> 11:33:41.480
And save the stage workshop needs to be rallied better like these these guys are driving to the death like oh

11:33:41.520 --> 11:33:45.800
Cliffs where they rallied mate. Yeah, it's terrible

11:33:46.400 --> 11:33:49.980
This is the nation's now that you turning

11:33:51.520 --> 11:33:55.160
Yeah, I don't know who got in that but that's not looking too hot for him

11:33:56.680 --> 11:33:58.680
Rates around the Rams

11:34:02.560 --> 11:34:04.240
So raise going to the back

11:34:04.240 --> 11:34:08.040
There's not much that's like, you know worth going for here with the like half

11:34:08.040 --> 11:34:10.040
But I mean I do like they have some raids

11:34:10.520 --> 11:34:16.160
You told me that the the light cab of Cecilians is stronger and the food production is way stronger

11:34:16.160 --> 11:34:20.200
Yeah, that's the unit that is being traded back and forth right now. Oh my god. You're seeing it together

11:34:21.360 --> 11:34:26.560
Yeah, and cheap territory is all pikemen and horses. Yeah, we got no gold. We got no money

11:34:27.680 --> 11:34:33.660
Yeah, and the light cab from Cecilians are actually much stronger because they resist a lot of the bonus damage coming in from the fire line

11:34:33.660 --> 11:34:39.020
to do that Sicilian bonus so they can't only fight like have if you need some sergeants mixed in

11:34:39.020 --> 11:34:42.620
which is tough because you have no gold now we actually lost the last little bit of gold

11:34:43.340 --> 11:34:48.620
but you know pig has some hope and pigs play in a fantastic game despite being pretty far behind

11:34:48.620 --> 11:34:57.020
earlier on that's a big sell from piggy yeah pig selling big sell that thousand wood thousand

11:34:57.020 --> 11:35:01.740
food 170 gold each it's like these gold units every time you lose the gold unit it's a little

11:35:01.740 --> 11:35:06.540
bit cringe if he gets nothing in exchange for it you know if we get something from it it's okay if

11:35:06.540 --> 11:35:13.420
you lose it for free it's terrible so far though scores neck and neck guys our mark our mark if this

11:35:13.420 --> 11:35:18.700
goes to an hour thirty whoever has the more score how much would it cost how much he cost his lands

11:35:19.260 --> 11:35:26.140
50 gold a piece it's expendable at all no no this is terrible this is Jesus he's dropping rolling

11:35:26.140 --> 11:35:30.860
in the grass. Yeah, exactly. Gold units going down 150 pop. You know,

11:35:30.860 --> 11:35:33.900
Gregory has the relics, he's got paper money, but he's still selling. Both

11:35:33.900 --> 11:35:37.780
players desperate for gold. Gold is the biggest deal here. They both rely heavily

11:35:37.780 --> 11:35:41.140
on gold units. A lot of violence is on the field now. Gregory could substitute

11:35:41.140 --> 11:35:44.580
those into Halves. A little bit of a pause. This game is fantastic. Make some

11:35:44.580 --> 11:35:47.940
noise in the chat for a crazy game one. I feel like this can go either way from

11:35:47.940 --> 11:35:48.660
here, honestly.

11:35:51.300 --> 11:35:52.380
What's the strat, captain?

11:35:52.380 --> 11:35:55.460
Can you guys see the core of the green monasteries?

11:35:55.460 --> 11:35:56.960
Oh my god.

11:35:56.960 --> 11:35:59.020
You dropped a bunch of monasteries.

11:35:59.020 --> 11:36:02.340
Is that like the most point efficient building or something?

11:36:02.340 --> 11:36:03.620
Like it gives the most score?

11:36:03.620 --> 11:36:04.620
Like what is he doing?

11:36:04.620 --> 11:36:05.460
So yeah, okay.

11:36:05.460 --> 11:36:08.060
Monastery gives the most score for the price

11:36:08.060 --> 11:36:09.380
that you pay for it.

11:36:09.380 --> 11:36:11.020
However, it's early for that.

11:36:11.020 --> 11:36:12.060
That's in 30 minutes.

11:36:12.060 --> 11:36:13.860
You have to start worrying about score.

11:36:15.220 --> 11:36:17.460
I hope he doesn't have wood problems.

11:36:17.460 --> 11:36:20.940
Yeah, I feel like if he drops those monasteries

11:36:20.940 --> 11:36:24.020
and then needs wood later, that's just gonna look really silly, you know?

11:36:26.300 --> 11:36:27.660
It's just very religious.

11:36:28.860 --> 11:36:30.100
This is his last prayer.

11:36:30.380 --> 11:36:31.980
Yeah, maybe he's just super devoted.

11:36:32.220 --> 11:36:33.700
He's been 17 monesties.

11:36:33.780 --> 11:36:37.340
I knew I should have went to church last Sunday and just get 17 more going, you know?

11:36:38.100 --> 11:36:39.300
Feeling that regret, but...

11:36:40.500 --> 11:36:41.620
Two into pop or pig.

11:36:42.420 --> 11:36:43.980
I don't know, like, probably...

11:36:44.060 --> 11:36:46.660
I feel like with the relics, you shouldn't have all the answers.

11:36:46.740 --> 11:36:49.540
He's got 6,000 relics gold, extra over pig.

11:36:49.540 --> 11:36:55.540
But so far it's just been the pig with all kinds of Sicilian bonuses behind this.

11:36:55.540 --> 11:36:56.540
Somehow...

11:36:56.540 --> 11:37:00.540
Can you check how many are building these monasteries? How many workers?

11:37:00.540 --> 11:37:03.540
Did he pull like a crazy amount?

11:37:03.540 --> 11:37:04.540
I just do.

11:37:04.540 --> 11:37:05.540
He has so many idle workers, no?

11:37:05.540 --> 11:37:06.540
Yeah, a lot of them.

11:37:06.540 --> 11:37:09.540
No, no, you're so right, you might as always, to be honest.

11:37:09.540 --> 11:37:13.540
You've been kind of spitting, but a lot of these wood is actually running out here.

11:37:13.540 --> 11:37:16.540
He's getting harassed all over the place. He's losing his stables.

11:37:16.540 --> 11:37:18.540
This is not looking that good for Grubby.

11:37:18.540 --> 11:37:21.840
He's got five relics. I'd expect it to have a free win, but it's not the case at all

11:37:21.840 --> 11:37:25.680
Pickaxe has more pop and you know barring any like monastery play

11:37:25.680 --> 11:37:28.940
I feel like people in a pretty good position. So a lot of gold units

11:37:31.740 --> 11:37:34.140
Do Vietnamese not have furnace?

11:37:34.780 --> 11:37:36.980
No, they don't have furnace. Last furnace is in.

11:37:38.340 --> 11:37:42.100
Oh, Vietnamese. Oh, no, they don't have furnace. Yeah, they don't have furnace.

11:37:42.780 --> 11:37:45.640
Yeah, let's get a call out. Light cap going in.

11:37:45.640 --> 11:37:48.960
even better for the horses. Yeah exactly so like Vietnamese horse is missing two

11:37:48.960 --> 11:37:54.600
attack and you know you don't have that insane farm economy behind it. So

11:37:54.600 --> 11:37:58.080
Sicilians kind of a better late game in some ways at least how it's played out in

11:37:58.080 --> 11:38:01.840
this specific matchup. It looks like it's a very prepared matchup for Sicilians

11:38:01.840 --> 11:38:05.480
though for Pig. He really wanted to play this matchup potentially. The Sardines

11:38:05.480 --> 11:38:12.280
have been fantastic so far. Make some scorpion fire you have three scorpions

11:38:12.280 --> 11:38:17.240
they lined up for you baby this is perfect pig wins this fight i believe i think the sergeants

11:38:17.240 --> 11:38:21.400
are actually really tanky you got that scorpion backline i'll watch out for the bombers though

11:38:21.400 --> 11:38:29.400
but the car in the front are really good kobi oh it's just so many violences though for grubby

11:38:29.400 --> 11:38:36.920
maybe it's good enough to win this one i'm just baffled because pig had a lot of 13 sergeants

11:38:36.920 --> 11:38:38.920
Right close to that battle and he just sent him away.

11:38:38.920 --> 11:38:40.920
Did he? Where'd he go with those?

11:38:40.920 --> 11:38:44.920
Oh, I guess he was trying to take care of the raid, but Barrow Lynch is down south.

11:38:44.920 --> 11:38:48.920
Yeah, okay, that's true. But yeah, he could have used them in the fight up top.

11:38:48.920 --> 11:38:50.920
Got a little split maybe.

11:38:50.920 --> 11:38:54.920
It's still just up to each though. I feel like Piggy's map was really underrated this tournament.

11:38:54.920 --> 11:38:56.920
He's played a great late game every single time he's been there.

11:38:58.920 --> 11:39:02.920
He has 30 horses on the map. I need to see them.

11:39:02.920 --> 11:39:04.920
I grouped up.

11:39:04.920 --> 11:39:09.920
Got some here. A couple of seed drums at the back, talking to the Fire Lancers.

11:39:09.920 --> 11:39:10.920
He won this fight.

11:39:10.920 --> 11:39:11.920
Yeah, he won it.

11:39:11.920 --> 11:39:13.920
He won this fight. All the Lancers are gone.

11:39:13.920 --> 11:39:16.920
Yeah, and remember those Lancers are gold units. Like, less and less Lancers on the field.

11:39:16.920 --> 11:39:18.920
Actually, Grubby's switching to Pykeman.

11:39:18.920 --> 11:39:22.920
Pykeman are, for all intents and purposes, useless versus Sardons.

11:39:22.920 --> 11:39:26.920
They would deal one damage against the Sicilian Sardons. Those Pykemen are so bad.

11:39:26.920 --> 11:39:29.920
But Grubby needs to go for them. He's got nothing else.

11:39:29.920 --> 11:39:34.720
and they're decent against the uh you know like have especially if you get the halberd actually

11:39:34.720 --> 11:39:40.640
halberd technologies it's not terrible well please tell me these rams are not going to the desk

11:39:40.640 --> 11:39:46.160
like i'm just so scared all right they turn around early go less yeah we need those rams

11:39:47.120 --> 11:39:51.360
can't afford to waste gold units uh you know grab is looking for a raid here maybe the gate

11:39:51.360 --> 11:39:54.160
will be opened but so far this castle will hold the fort

11:39:54.160 --> 11:40:00.640
Just an intense game. I still don't know who's in a win. It could come down to score

11:40:00.640 --> 11:40:04.540
You haven't had a single game go to the score limit in the King's Gauntlet by the way

11:40:04.540 --> 11:40:11.300
Not a single game has went to the score limit. So see maybe this is gonna be the first one very intense back and forth battle

11:40:11.300 --> 11:40:13.300
20 minutes to go here

11:40:14.260 --> 11:40:20.780
What are these battle rams guys? I don't understand them. Oh, yeah, Maddox. Why are these rams riding to battle all the time?

11:40:20.780 --> 11:40:25.740
You man, I need you to take the real thing. You seem like a good driver. You got to get in there pull them back. Oh

11:40:27.260 --> 11:40:31.020
They're cooked the bombers killed the old like a by the way. It's kind of interesting

11:40:33.820 --> 11:40:41.320
They're grubby stabilizing I'm looking at the score guys. I'm looking at the score those monasteries might just clutch everything

11:40:42.780 --> 11:40:46.520
These two were these two workers. They are saints by the way

11:40:46.520 --> 11:40:49.900
They are no awesome Noah's arc shit what they're building in the back there, bro

11:40:50.780 --> 11:40:55.420
Dude, Gravy's gonna take the score lead. We're seeing more buildings dropped for Pig

11:40:55.420 --> 11:40:59.620
I don't know if he wants more production if he wants more score, but either way he score maxing a little bit there a

11:41:00.500 --> 11:41:05.500
Couple like have coming in they're gonna clean up the seed ram. It's a neck-and-neck game. It's hard to call

11:41:05.500 --> 11:41:07.500
I want to see more sergeants though

11:41:07.500 --> 11:41:12.220
I know the gold is a bit about you know tough features to come by but I feel like the sergeants are the best way to

11:41:12.220 --> 11:41:16.020
Spend your gold if you are pig few sergeants waiting at the back here

11:41:16.020 --> 11:41:18.500
Maybe targets the king could be a far-fetched idea

11:41:18.500 --> 11:41:24.020
Let's see if that's gonna be a possibility sergeant's on the front though still prints behind. This is great for mr. Pig

11:41:27.140 --> 11:41:28.900
Boy I

11:41:28.900 --> 11:41:35.660
Swear a pig just jumped into all those rams he built with five dudes and just clicked enemy TC and just looped around a little bit

11:41:35.660 --> 11:41:36.600
I

11:41:36.600 --> 11:41:40.000
Think we'll just break it with a ram and five dudes instantly

11:41:40.540 --> 11:41:44.860
Upgraded Rams. They don't take any bullet fire from damage from Maros. Yeah

11:41:44.860 --> 11:41:49.260
Yeah, yeah, I kind of agree with you, but Rams are hard to come by right now.

11:41:49.260 --> 11:41:52.620
Rebi's got a massive army, he's got something like, Elite Rappin' Archery, he's got a full

11:41:52.620 --> 11:41:53.620
head and score.

11:41:53.620 --> 11:41:57.180
I feel like Pig might have to stop fighting for a bit, to stop fighting.

11:41:57.180 --> 11:42:00.680
I think a big pushback, one shot, is how Pig wins fights.

11:42:00.680 --> 11:42:03.780
The constant fighting always helps the ranged backline.

11:42:03.780 --> 11:42:07.020
If you're a melee, you need big fights, huge swarm.

11:42:07.020 --> 11:42:11.780
That's how you win fights, you overwhelm.

11:42:11.780 --> 11:42:13.860
Couple likey have a die to this tower.

11:42:13.860 --> 11:42:15.860
Oh, random is back on the score.

11:42:15.860 --> 11:42:16.860
Figgy.

11:42:16.860 --> 11:42:18.860
Oh, the racks are actually helping.

11:42:18.860 --> 11:42:20.860
Yep.

11:42:20.860 --> 11:42:22.860
All buildings help the score.

11:42:22.860 --> 11:42:24.860
Score is decided by economy collected,

11:42:24.860 --> 11:42:26.860
units killed, buildings placed,

11:42:26.860 --> 11:42:28.860
technologies researched.

11:42:28.860 --> 11:42:30.860
Those are ways to get score for those wondering at home.

11:42:30.860 --> 11:42:32.860
It could come down to the score lead.

11:42:32.860 --> 11:42:33.860
It's gonna be a score win.

11:42:33.860 --> 11:42:35.860
Our 30 is the panel that we put.

11:42:35.860 --> 11:42:37.860
Otherwise, we could just have these games go all day.

11:42:37.860 --> 11:42:40.860
So, 17 minutes of play left.

11:42:40.860 --> 11:42:45.860
dude it's neck and neck you literally can't call this one

11:42:45.860 --> 11:42:50.060
oh wait Grubby's gonna lose a lot of villagers here that's

11:42:50.060 --> 11:42:53.060
kind of a big raid oh they're hiding in there that's crazy

11:42:53.060 --> 11:42:59.260
okay I like have having some good raids here

11:42:59.260 --> 11:43:03.100
obviously Grubby's village account is starting to become very low

11:43:03.100 --> 11:43:10.100
yep 93 90

11:43:10.100 --> 11:43:13.100
Thank you for coming in.

11:43:13.100 --> 11:43:19.620
The next score is still about $200, but that gives you a lot of score on that upgrade.

11:43:19.620 --> 11:43:21.460
Yeah, but it's all gold.

11:43:21.460 --> 11:43:22.860
It's $175 gold.

11:43:22.860 --> 11:43:25.620
It does give some score, but it's a very expensive upgrade to get for score.

11:43:25.620 --> 11:43:28.660
There's a lot of better ones to get, but nonetheless, a huge cleanup.

11:43:28.660 --> 11:43:30.180
This is what I'm talking about.

11:43:30.180 --> 11:43:32.860
Pig will swarm these fights, and Greg was not watching.

11:43:32.860 --> 11:43:34.780
That's a backline full of gold units.

11:43:34.780 --> 11:43:35.940
The Baton Archers are going to go down.

11:43:35.940 --> 11:43:39.180
There's a huge swarm with the real units, a couple of backline scorpions.

11:43:39.180 --> 11:43:44.540
This is fantastic for Pig. Meanwhile, Grubby has a little raid on the left, a little raid down the center.

11:43:45.500 --> 11:43:51.260
But Pig is winning this fight. He's got the score now. Nice movement. He moved away the cavalry to fight the pikemen.

11:43:51.260 --> 11:43:59.180
Yep. Berber as well. He's getting these upgrades for score, but they're very gold heavy. They're very gold expensive upgrades.

11:44:01.580 --> 11:44:06.060
But the sergeants are cooking, bro. Those are just 10 sergeants killing like 50 pikemen.

11:44:06.060 --> 11:44:11.660
Sergeant's the best you know the field run out from both sides the sergeant's the best you know the field some raids coming in for pig

11:44:11.660 --> 11:44:15.700
Grubby's at 150 pop. I really feel like he might lose this one to score

11:44:15.700 --> 11:44:19.120
The funny thing is he's got the five relics if this game has no score

11:44:19.140 --> 11:44:23.600
You could make the argument that Grubby will for sure win in late game with those five relics

11:44:23.600 --> 11:44:28.040
But that score victory is definitely part of this tournament. You have to factor that into your game plan

11:44:28.040 --> 11:44:29.540
Of course and pig

11:44:29.540 --> 11:44:31.940
14 minutes to go. He's got more population. Oh

11:44:32.740 --> 11:44:34.740
But this Yamato

11:44:34.740 --> 11:44:41.180
Oh, what's it doing there? Why did you park brother man? It's terrible

11:44:41.740 --> 11:44:45.620
Look at the horses in the back though. They found the monasteries. Okay

11:44:46.940 --> 11:44:48.940
They're dying to pikemen

11:44:49.380 --> 11:44:54.020
These horses looks for a touchdown, but the linebackers that are the pikemen found them both

11:44:55.020 --> 11:44:56.380
That was a hide though

11:44:56.380 --> 11:45:01.100
It was the dangerous place to raid a lot of halbs back here though and the halbs are back there

11:45:01.100 --> 11:45:05.940
They're not in the front. Yo, this is a scary army pig by the way 80 army in the field tons of really

11:45:05.940 --> 11:45:08.220
Like a one scorpion is slowing them down completely

11:45:08.220 --> 11:45:13.980
You know one scorpion is making them walk like slow motion like it's some it's like the

11:45:14.180 --> 11:45:19.520
Last scene of the third Hobbit movie, you know before the fight when they just line up, you know

11:45:20.240 --> 11:45:23.620
I need that we're working on the clock here. There's 30 minutes left brother

11:45:25.380 --> 11:45:29.140
We all work on the clock that scorpion is really not helping out right now

11:45:29.140 --> 11:45:31.140
I want a scorpion bro, please

11:45:31.140 --> 11:45:33.140
Oh my god, grab your kills with the old light cab

11:45:33.140 --> 11:45:35.140
If grab your loses by like 10 score, it's right here

11:45:35.140 --> 11:45:37.140
It's that light cab that lost in the game

11:45:37.140 --> 11:45:39.140
Just keep that in mind, okay?

11:45:41.140 --> 11:45:43.140
Killing buildings though, Yamato

11:45:43.140 --> 11:45:45.140
Killing buildings is very good for your score

11:45:47.140 --> 11:45:49.140
It's so close to score

11:45:49.140 --> 11:45:50.140
Oh

11:45:51.140 --> 11:45:53.140
Not a single game went to score limit

11:45:53.140 --> 11:45:55.140
In the first game of the grand finals, going to the score limit

11:45:55.140 --> 11:45:57.140
That's crazy

11:45:59.140 --> 11:46:01.940
Holy, this is Age of Empires.

11:46:01.940 --> 11:46:02.940
Yep.

11:46:02.940 --> 11:46:05.340
Such a beautiful A-game.

11:46:05.340 --> 11:46:07.380
Dude, both players are playing so well.

11:46:07.380 --> 11:46:09.860
This looks like a 2000-year-old game minimum, by the way.

11:46:09.860 --> 11:46:12.220
They're playing so freaking well.

11:46:12.220 --> 11:46:13.220
Scorpion value.

11:46:13.220 --> 11:46:15.860
They're lining up like cocaine in a club.

11:46:15.860 --> 11:46:16.860
Look at that.

11:46:16.860 --> 11:46:20.260
Gotta be careful, though.

11:46:20.260 --> 11:46:23.740
The Bomber's killing them, but still it's a good fight for Pig.

11:46:23.740 --> 11:46:28.480
He's got a lot more infantry, and the Bombers are all set because they're expensive Bombers

11:46:28.480 --> 11:46:30.480
Pig has a 2,000 school lead!

11:46:30.480 --> 11:46:31.600
Oh my god!

11:46:31.600 --> 11:46:34.720
Oh my god, Grubby's getting hard rated, 76 villagers!

11:46:34.720 --> 11:46:37.800
Pig is actually out macroing Grubby in the late game.

11:46:37.800 --> 11:46:39.880
We've talked day and night about Grubby's late game.

11:46:39.880 --> 11:46:40.880
It was so reliable.

11:46:40.880 --> 11:46:42.280
What the scope is out of the control group?

11:46:42.280 --> 11:46:44.120
Why are we moving so slow?

11:46:44.120 --> 11:46:45.560
This is fantastic!

11:46:47.040 --> 11:46:47.880
Look at this armor.

11:46:47.880 --> 11:46:49.800
Look how it's bumping on each other, Yamato.

11:46:49.800 --> 11:46:51.440
It's a bit of a traffic jam.

11:46:51.440 --> 11:46:52.880
They're still playing so freaking well.

11:46:52.880 --> 11:46:53.720
It's really impressive today.

11:46:53.720 --> 11:46:55.160
Oh, they want a meatball.

11:46:55.160 --> 11:46:57.320
The Sicilian meatball.

11:46:57.320 --> 11:46:59.320
Get in there!

11:46:59.320 --> 11:47:01.320
Turn around, turn around, you win!

11:47:01.320 --> 11:47:03.320
Yeah, he could fight, but Grubby...

11:47:03.320 --> 11:47:05.320
Sorry, Yamato, he's worried about Grubby's counter-attack here.

11:47:05.320 --> 11:47:07.320
Grubby's counter-attack...

11:47:07.320 --> 11:47:09.320
Halbscrub, it's not that scary, actually.

11:47:09.320 --> 11:47:11.320
Sardons would destroy that.

11:47:11.320 --> 11:47:13.320
They didn't have many Sardons.

11:47:13.320 --> 11:47:15.320
He's got 31, though.

11:47:15.320 --> 11:47:17.320
Wait, he's got 31 Sardons?

11:47:17.320 --> 11:47:19.320
Chat, how much does a Sardon cost?

11:47:19.320 --> 11:47:21.320
My understanding is that 25 gold per Sardon,

11:47:21.320 --> 11:47:23.320
so it's not that expensive, but still...

11:47:23.320 --> 11:47:29.040
What's your say now 24 if you didn't get Monk, Monk-Tax?

11:47:29.040 --> 11:47:33.080
Yeah, he could have a few more without the Monk-Tax, but the Monk-Tax were necessary for the Squirt teams.

11:47:33.080 --> 11:47:35.560
Apparently it's 20 gold per sergeant.

11:47:35.560 --> 11:47:37.400
Oh no, it's 55-25.

11:47:37.400 --> 11:47:39.400
55-25.

11:47:39.400 --> 11:47:42.400
So it's 25 gold.

11:47:42.400 --> 11:47:43.400
There's so much money.

11:47:43.400 --> 11:47:45.840
What is he, and his lumber disappeared.

11:47:45.840 --> 11:47:47.560
Did he queue like 50 million buildings?

11:47:47.560 --> 11:47:48.560
No, no, no.

11:47:48.560 --> 11:47:49.560
Oh, he found stone.

11:47:49.560 --> 11:47:50.560
He found stone but it's late.

11:47:50.560 --> 11:47:51.560
It's late for stone.

11:47:51.560 --> 11:47:53.880
You know, you know what grubby did though grubby says no bills

11:47:53.880 --> 11:47:58.200
She got 93 buildings only taking bad trades in his army. She's actually low on the score

11:47:58.200 --> 11:48:04.100
He's got 8.5 thousand relic gold and it's just not enough here. It's insane. It's insane what pig is doing

11:48:04.100 --> 11:48:09.720
I think I honestly have loom. Yeah, yeah, villagers have loom. Thank God

11:48:10.440 --> 11:48:14.920
Villages have loom on both sides. I will say I think grubby needs to go for a king snipe

11:48:14.920 --> 11:48:17.360
I can't believe I'm saying this. I don't think he's winning on the score guys

11:48:17.360 --> 11:48:19.360
and he's 2500 score behind.

11:48:19.360 --> 11:48:20.760
He does not, he's got eight minutes.

11:48:20.760 --> 11:48:22.000
The door is closing.

11:48:25.520 --> 11:48:26.720
Oh my days.

11:48:26.720 --> 11:48:28.060
A king step could happen though.

11:48:28.060 --> 11:48:29.280
No resources either.

11:48:30.320 --> 11:48:33.360
I think he just maxed out farms with way too late.

11:48:33.360 --> 11:48:34.760
Yeah.

11:48:34.760 --> 11:48:36.520
Remember it's the monasteries honestly.

11:48:36.520 --> 11:48:37.600
The monasteries just didn't help.

11:48:37.600 --> 11:48:39.120
They didn't really give us anything.

11:48:39.120 --> 11:48:40.960
We're now left low on wood.

11:48:40.960 --> 11:48:42.560
I feel like that's just a bait most of the time.

11:48:42.560 --> 11:48:44.440
Like the monasteries are not that good for your score.

11:48:44.440 --> 11:48:46.560
They can just sacrifice the game and play for them.

11:48:46.560 --> 11:48:47.760
It's my opinion at least.

11:48:48.880 --> 11:48:50.400
I think just make a run for the king.

11:48:50.640 --> 11:48:52.920
I can't believe Pig is actually winning this game.

11:48:53.120 --> 11:48:57.760
If you watch this start to finish, this game was on a silver platter for Grubby at some point.

11:48:57.760 --> 11:49:00.520
I don't even know how Sicilians bought this back.

11:49:00.760 --> 11:49:02.560
I don't know how Pig was able to bring this back.

11:49:06.080 --> 11:49:08.200
To think back to those lazy trochus.

11:49:08.680 --> 11:49:12.040
Where he would sacrifice 50 Sargents and 10 Rams.

11:49:12.040 --> 11:49:13.920
Yep, think back to this early play.

11:49:13.920 --> 11:49:17.340
Imagine if he had not done this play, by the way. How strong the Sicilian pick could be.

11:49:19.060 --> 11:49:22.960
I think if he went to imp with that army, Cedram, he would have destroyed.

11:49:24.680 --> 11:49:26.600
I agree. Oh, but here we go. Here we go.

11:49:26.900 --> 11:49:29.800
Wait, a lot of villagers. Oh, Gwemmy has a castle. He's going all in.

11:49:29.980 --> 11:49:32.840
Gwemmy's going all in. He knows he's dead. He knows he's dead on the clock.

11:49:32.840 --> 11:49:34.940
He's got five minutes. Gwemmy's going all in.

11:49:35.120 --> 11:49:37.160
All the Fire Lancers, he's spending all of his gold.

11:49:37.260 --> 11:49:40.280
He's got enough stone for one castle. He's bringing the bombards.

11:49:40.400 --> 11:49:42.280
It's one last ride.

11:49:42.280 --> 11:49:45.680
One last fight, we got a lot of Sicilian sergeants and heavy scorpions.

11:49:45.680 --> 11:49:48.680
Pig is not going to make this easy, we just need to step the king!

11:49:48.680 --> 11:49:51.080
This castle is weak, castle in the front for Grubby!

11:49:52.080 --> 11:49:54.880
Does he have it up? Does he have what it takes to just kill the castle,

11:49:54.880 --> 11:49:57.080
step the king, it's one last ride!

11:49:59.480 --> 11:50:02.080
He's getting decimated, oh my god!

11:50:03.280 --> 11:50:04.480
What the hell, though?

11:50:05.480 --> 11:50:07.280
Yeah, so cheap, so strong.

11:50:07.680 --> 11:50:10.080
He kills the castle though, no matter how he kills the castle,

11:50:10.080 --> 11:50:17.480
All he has to do now, it's an easy task, but it's the hardest task in the game, snipe the king, there's no more castles to defend.

11:50:17.480 --> 11:50:29.380
The sardons have wiped up everything, the scorpion from the back line, 24 kills on 7 scorpions, they've been kicking ass from the back line, but Yamato, it's just one king, that Gwebe has to kill, he's got 4 minutes, he's got light cav!

11:50:31.380 --> 11:50:39.680
Okay, just one king, but I don't know buddy, he needs to get the information, and then he needs to get the scorpion line, it's so strong, but...

11:50:40.080 --> 11:50:46.120
trying to fight into it oh no it's a freaking meat grinder but like ever all

11:50:46.120 --> 11:50:51.600
dead yo this is such a hype game but I feel like it's last moments for grubby

11:50:51.600 --> 11:50:58.600
he's got three minutes grubby supply 150 is cooked one last right worker so

11:50:58.600 --> 11:51:02.840
late into the game I think it's one last ride for the king I'm telling you it's

11:51:02.840 --> 11:51:06.960
it's so possible it's been such a messy game he's gonna go for it go into the

11:51:06.960 --> 11:51:11.520
He clicked in he found the pocket just go into the base. It's open. There's no castles riders on the storm

11:51:12.640 --> 11:51:16.600
If this is a nice, I didn't he actually didn't lasso lasso grouped them as well

11:51:16.680 --> 11:51:20.680
Yeah, have going in violence in the back. He's going here for the king

11:51:21.200 --> 11:51:26.680
He's fine finds the king. This is what we see he finds the king the king is in this tower shit

11:51:26.680 --> 11:51:32.400
Oh my god, he's on his other king. He's on the king tower. He doesn't have the he doesn't have the military though

11:51:32.400 --> 11:51:34.400
More like I've come in he's got two minutes

11:51:36.960 --> 11:51:43.200
oh shit it's so close the towers already on fire the affairs are coming

11:51:43.200 --> 11:51:49.640
through pig it takes the king you don't know what a psycho holy pig

11:51:49.640 --> 11:51:54.360
saves his king and I can't believe it but pig is actually gonna win this game

11:51:54.360 --> 11:51:57.040
one it's insane

11:51:57.240 --> 11:52:10.000
wow dude one last ride one last ride bro dude what holy shit

11:52:10.000 --> 11:52:17.520
why is the king outside why is the king outside oh my god

11:52:17.520 --> 11:52:18.480
Krabby doesn't see it.

11:52:19.600 --> 11:52:20.960
I'm gonna have a heart attack, Yamato.

11:52:21.280 --> 11:52:22.320
If I die, I take over.

11:52:22.320 --> 11:52:23.260
That is such an un-

11:52:23.260 --> 11:52:23.920
I'm not so treason!

11:52:23.920 --> 11:52:24.820
You're treason!

11:52:24.820 --> 11:52:26.320
You got treason! Krabby knows it's running!

11:52:26.320 --> 11:52:27.520
Krabby knows it's running!

11:52:27.520 --> 11:52:29.120
Just get in the town center!

11:52:29.320 --> 11:52:30.120
Oh my god.

11:52:31.020 --> 11:52:32.220
Why is he doing this?

11:52:33.420 --> 11:52:34.720
15 seconds.

11:52:35.420 --> 11:52:36.520
It is 15 seconds.

11:52:37.920 --> 11:52:38.920
Game's about to end.

11:52:38.920 --> 11:52:40.920
And it's all over.

11:52:40.920 --> 11:52:44.520
Higgy in the red trunks is winning the first game.

11:52:44.720 --> 11:52:46.320
Holy moly, what a game.

11:52:46.320 --> 11:52:47.420
Wow, what a game.

11:52:47.520 --> 11:52:51.200
What a game what a game what a game it might be a few more seconds by the way

11:52:51.200 --> 11:52:53.840
But I think it's around an hour and a half the game should be over

11:52:54.320 --> 11:52:59.960
There it is GG in the chat the time has run out and grubby has lost on score

11:53:00.400 --> 11:53:06.140
Pig after a freaking banger game one has taken the victory with the Sicilians

11:53:06.140 --> 11:53:10.240
I cannot believe how good of a game this was literal cinema

11:53:10.360 --> 11:53:13.980
The dream start to a grand finals both these guys seem so evenly matched

11:53:13.980 --> 11:53:17.360
And I can't believe that pig after that disastrous rush

11:53:17.740 --> 11:53:23.980
Just going straight through that front door that we talked about not being able to do anything with that rush has come back

11:53:23.980 --> 11:53:27.100
And won this game. I am so blown away by that insane

11:53:28.020 --> 11:53:34.060
Her a please you need to give us a synopsis. What did grubby do wrong to throw away the lead that he had?

11:53:34.420 --> 11:53:39.660
Talk to me Captain Lance. What do you think? I don't know dude. I think it was the farms. I think the farms won the game

11:53:39.740 --> 11:53:41.740
This is the same farms

11:53:41.740 --> 11:53:44.860
Let's take a look at these farms he just had so much like

11:53:45.820 --> 11:53:48.780
He could his ego and like food to wood balance

11:53:49.060 --> 11:53:52.140
He didn't need that much lumber to like maintain the farms

11:53:52.140 --> 11:53:57.100
And then he could just outspan them with like have that are 40% resistant to the

11:53:58.060 --> 11:54:03.960
To the house. Yeah, I'll answer this as well. I'm thinking so these farms. I'm trying to find one that has a thousand food in it

11:54:03.960 --> 11:54:09.440
Um, it's hard to find though, but a lot of them. Yeah, look at this 894 food 895 food

11:54:09.440 --> 11:54:12.140
That's crazy. Yeah, it's just so much food for farm

11:54:12.140 --> 11:54:15.320
I could rather have to grab you average farms like a hundred food this one like 490

11:54:15.880 --> 11:54:18.940
These farmers just never run out. I get such efficient trades with that

11:54:19.280 --> 11:54:25.180
You know with that wood with that food good trades of the like have as well fantastic fantastic game one and

11:54:25.620 --> 11:54:30.900
The energy in the chat could not be better here as Thater gifts 50 subscribers to the Twitch stream

11:54:30.900 --> 11:54:37.620
Oh my goodness guys W Thater. We got Jabba in the chat. Jabba says that's my captain. No freaking way. Jabba still watching

11:54:38.020 --> 11:54:42.500
He's still cooking everybody's watching Thater thinks that 50 gifted bro. Salutes to you my friend

11:54:42.660 --> 11:54:45.420
Thank you so much for support in the channel support in the tournament

11:54:46.020 --> 11:54:52.340
Ladies and gents 1-0 for pig pig beat grubby last time despite losing game one this time

11:54:52.420 --> 11:54:54.420
He's actually one game one

11:54:54.900 --> 11:54:57.860
Is he gonna double up on the grubby victory?

11:54:57.860 --> 11:55:02.460
We'll see grubby of course gets the home epic next match our next round next game

11:55:03.020 --> 11:55:08.380
Yamato talk to me, bro. Is grubby gonna take us to Arabia or arena? I

11:55:10.380 --> 11:55:12.380
Honestly feel like grubby's

11:55:13.020 --> 11:55:18.780
Diversity really shines on in Arabia the fact that he pulled off the cleanest

11:55:19.540 --> 11:55:21.540
red foster we saw

11:55:21.540 --> 11:55:26.540
To have that in the back pocket where we have range of play and you can basically like

11:55:26.540 --> 11:55:31.700
like, float a strat, and the enemy doesn't read you completely off of your sieve, I think

11:55:31.700 --> 11:55:35.460
it's a massive strength, and I think you can only really utilize that in Arabia, because

11:55:35.460 --> 11:55:39.620
the game is too streamlined on arena, and I think it just doesn't use Grubby's biggest

11:55:39.620 --> 11:55:44.700
strength, and I think for all sense and purposes, the Regicide Fortress game was also an arena

11:55:44.700 --> 11:55:45.700
game.

11:55:45.700 --> 11:55:46.700
Yeah, kind of.

11:55:46.700 --> 11:55:49.740
The Kings weren't really relevant until we almost shared our pants.

11:55:49.740 --> 11:55:51.820
You got a massive gift to sub, bro.

11:55:51.820 --> 11:55:53.980
You gotta celebrate somehow, bro.

11:55:53.980 --> 11:55:54.980
100 gifted.

11:55:54.980 --> 11:55:55.980
I wanna celebrate.

11:55:55.980 --> 11:55:58.380
I want to celebrate, me and you, you're out on the garrison.

11:55:58.380 --> 11:56:00.720
Are you coming to the garrison or not?

11:56:00.720 --> 11:56:02.220
Bro, I'd love to come to the garrison.

11:56:02.220 --> 11:56:03.500
Am I coming to the garrison?

11:56:03.500 --> 11:56:04.740
I'll let you know, I contacted the guy,

11:56:04.740 --> 11:56:06.260
I'll let you know, I'll come back to you.

11:56:06.260 --> 11:56:07.420
Anonymous, thank you so much.

11:56:07.420 --> 11:56:09.380
100 gifted guys, keep the Ws flowing.

11:56:09.380 --> 11:56:11.020
If you got a gifted sub, make sure you say thank you.

11:56:11.020 --> 11:56:14.100
These guys are so generous, making these events possible.

11:56:14.100 --> 11:56:15.020
It's a lot of work on our end,

11:56:15.020 --> 11:56:17.860
but these gifts that I was making, more than worth it.

11:56:17.860 --> 11:56:20.500
Thank you so much guys, I can't thank you guys enough.

11:56:20.500 --> 11:56:22.180
Seriously, it's very, very generous.

11:56:22.180 --> 11:56:25.980
By the way, we have a stream crash from Grubby.

11:56:25.980 --> 11:56:28.020
I don't know if he's gonna be back.

11:56:28.020 --> 11:56:31.020
I'm getting away from the production actually.

11:56:31.020 --> 11:56:31.860
Very unfortunate.

11:56:31.860 --> 11:56:33.220
I don't know if he's gonna be back.

11:56:33.220 --> 11:56:35.100
No, no, Grubby is dropping out.

11:56:35.100 --> 11:56:36.700
Jabbo's in, baby.

11:56:36.700 --> 11:56:37.540
Jabbo, get ready.

11:56:37.540 --> 11:56:39.220
Jabbo will take over for Grubby.

11:56:39.220 --> 11:56:40.660
It's one zero pig.

11:56:40.660 --> 11:56:43.460
Jabbo could reverse sweep this one though.

11:56:43.460 --> 11:56:45.180
Jabbo, get ready, you're in.

11:56:45.180 --> 11:56:46.020
He's subbed in.

11:56:46.020 --> 11:56:47.540
He's subbed in.

11:56:47.540 --> 11:56:48.380
Yep.

11:56:48.380 --> 11:56:49.220
Come on now.

11:56:49.220 --> 11:56:50.060
It could be a 2v1.

11:56:50.060 --> 11:56:54.500
can bring the spiffing Brit to be one. That's a good replacement.

11:56:57.380 --> 11:56:59.660
When I get ready, how about how about we put thermal in for

11:56:59.660 --> 11:57:04.860
one cheeky, rabid game? Um, no, listen, we're working on on

11:57:04.860 --> 11:57:05.900
getting grubby back.

11:57:09.180 --> 11:57:10.380
Who's gonna be captain tomorrow?

11:57:10.540 --> 11:57:11.620
Because internet died.

11:57:12.260 --> 11:57:16.300
I hope it's two PCs. He has one PC that he plays on and then

11:57:16.300 --> 11:57:18.940
he streams on a second one. I think his second PC, the stream

11:57:18.940 --> 11:57:20.940
PC is the one that died.

11:57:20.940 --> 11:57:21.940
That eaten by Hera.

11:57:21.940 --> 11:57:22.940
Oh, man.

11:57:22.940 --> 11:57:30.940
You know what, Hera, I got to say, sometimes you accidentally call Grubby your motto,

11:57:30.940 --> 11:57:35.940
and I just, you know what, that means that there's so much hidden message.

11:57:35.940 --> 11:57:36.940
Yeah.

11:57:36.940 --> 11:57:39.940
It means you love me a little bit more than you love Grubby.

11:57:39.940 --> 11:57:40.940
Oh, I know.

11:57:40.940 --> 11:57:43.940
Yeah, it's a little bit of a, there's a hidden meaning there.

11:57:43.940 --> 11:57:45.940
I'm glad you caught it.

11:57:45.940 --> 11:57:49.060
It's like the highest compliment. It's like death-not-level compliment

11:57:50.580 --> 11:57:54.660
But by the way, apparently Grubby is not on discord like he's not responding

11:57:54.660 --> 11:57:59.860
I actually don't know what to do if he actually crashes right now. This is worst-case scenario for finals

11:58:01.100 --> 11:58:02.260
I

11:58:02.260 --> 11:58:07.340
Hope it can come back if it's late for him. He's crashed before and come back though. It's possible

11:58:07.500 --> 11:58:09.500
He should be back soon. Hopefully

11:58:09.860 --> 11:58:15.380
Anyone inside information cameras back cameras back cameras back look at him. Let's go

11:58:15.380 --> 11:58:16.780
Oh, he's back.

11:58:17.980 --> 11:58:19.660
Lock in, Grubby, come on now.

11:58:19.660 --> 11:58:21.460
It's down one, but it's a close game.

11:58:25.940 --> 11:58:28.500
Dude, I just, I can't help but smile, man.

11:58:28.500 --> 11:58:30.820
This event has been so fun.

11:58:30.820 --> 11:58:32.100
It's literally the perfect event.

11:58:32.100 --> 11:58:34.380
I'm actually really sad it's coming to an end.

11:58:34.380 --> 11:58:35.820
Dude, we gotta get the next one started

11:58:35.820 --> 11:58:37.340
like next week, bro, honestly.

11:58:37.340 --> 11:58:39.180
Just reset the ladder.

11:58:39.180 --> 11:58:40.220
You broke 9K?

11:58:40.220 --> 11:58:41.540
We broke 9K, bro.

11:58:41.540 --> 11:58:42.500
How many subs we break?

11:58:42.500 --> 11:58:43.420
Let me see the sub count.

11:58:43.420 --> 11:58:44.820
Hold on, let's take a look.

11:58:45.380 --> 11:58:54.180
Uh, they actually smashed 9k, 9,431, we're closing it on 10k even if anything. It's been fantastic. So next event, I say something crazy, bro.

11:58:54.180 --> 11:58:58.900
All right. If, if Hera reaches 12k, he shaves his head on stream after the finals.

11:58:59.940 --> 11:59:05.700
No, no, no, I haven't turned it to you. You model my hairline. If I shave my head, it's not coming back.

11:59:05.700 --> 11:59:09.940
Well, look at this hairline. It's like, it's like my ears. I can't, I can't shave.

11:59:09.940 --> 11:59:13.380
Yeah, I'm shaved. I'm shaved my head. I've shaved my head and it came back.

11:59:13.380 --> 11:59:19.140
Oh for barely bro barely bro bro is bro it bro like my head is like a Sicilian farm, bro

11:59:20.340 --> 11:59:22.820
Boy is this one thousand food

11:59:26.860 --> 11:59:28.860
Don't worry about it, bro

11:59:28.860 --> 11:59:36.300
I find top top key so that I shave my head fucking subs and your mother shaved my head in Germany in Hamburg for the

11:59:37.860 --> 11:59:41.140
Do that fine fucking some style after anyways, we'll do it

11:59:43.380 --> 11:59:45.380
So, go get the fix.

11:59:45.380 --> 11:59:47.380
It's a good start.

11:59:47.380 --> 11:59:49.380
It's a good start.

11:59:49.380 --> 11:59:51.380
Joe, thank you, Joe.

11:59:51.380 --> 11:59:53.380
You matter how good are your shaving skills, bro.

11:59:53.380 --> 11:59:55.380
You're like half-barber.

11:59:55.380 --> 11:59:57.380
I shaved K-doll on stream already.

11:59:57.380 --> 11:59:59.380
I did it really good.

11:59:59.380 --> 12:00:01.380
That was good. That was not good.

12:00:01.380 --> 12:00:03.380
What do you mean?

12:00:03.380 --> 12:00:05.380
It was great, you matter. Well done.

12:00:05.380 --> 12:00:07.380
No, I shaved his head really well.

12:00:07.380 --> 12:00:09.380
How he looks like in it.

12:00:09.380 --> 12:00:11.380
That's not up to me, bro.

12:00:11.380 --> 12:00:13.380
Yeah, yeah, you know the xD

12:00:14.380 --> 12:00:15.880
City was gorgeous

12:00:15.880 --> 12:00:22.020
The XD emotes was kind of K. Joe when he was bald off like no no flame actually love K. Joe's a great guy

12:00:22.020 --> 12:00:23.540
but

12:00:23.540 --> 12:00:27.220
Some crazy resemblance is there a little bit if you squint a bit

12:00:27.220 --> 12:00:32.260
They got a lot of gift to come in oh my goodness. Yeah, but what have you done 50 gifted from dark mass tons of gifted here job

12:00:32.260 --> 12:00:36.140
We'll get to 10 job. Well, you made zero dollars. How can you even afford the gift subs?

12:00:36.140 --> 12:00:39.140
Jabba, you literally got $0, bro.

12:00:39.140 --> 12:00:40.140
He's negative on the tournament.

12:00:40.140 --> 12:00:41.140
Exactly. We win tomorrow.

12:00:41.140 --> 12:00:44.140
We're going to win the team tournament.

12:00:44.140 --> 12:00:47.140
Oh, my God.

12:00:47.140 --> 12:00:49.140
Jabba, since he was never in it for the money,

12:00:49.140 --> 12:00:51.140
he was in it for the vibes.

12:00:51.140 --> 12:00:52.140
That's very good, bro.

12:00:52.140 --> 12:00:53.140
That's very good.

12:00:53.140 --> 12:00:55.140
Professional game is in five.

12:00:55.140 --> 12:00:57.140
Mr. Depot, instead of five as well.

12:00:57.140 --> 12:00:58.140
Jabba, I appreciate it, man.

12:00:58.140 --> 12:00:59.140
You're awesome.

12:00:59.140 --> 12:01:00.140
Hey, Joe, thanks for the 50 gifts

12:01:00.140 --> 12:01:01.140

Dark Master of Legends as well.

12:01:02.140 --> 12:01:03.140
Thanks for the 50 gifts that...

12:01:03.140 --> 12:01:05.140
Oh, man.

12:01:05.140 --> 12:01:07.680
Dude, I'm so sad. It's gonna be over seriously, but

12:01:08.740 --> 12:01:13.540
Hopin I'm hoping to get a stuff back together here. Let's see if we can get them started soon

12:01:16.700 --> 12:01:20.820
Looks like the cams are back. They're chatting a little bit. I'm not sure I'm not getting any of these messages

12:01:20.820 --> 12:01:22.820
So if they're talking to someone, they're not talking to me

12:01:24.060 --> 12:01:26.060
Yeah, imagine my face

12:01:26.060 --> 12:01:28.060
Someone and it's not me

12:01:28.580 --> 12:01:31.940
You feel left out. I do you feel a little left out. I'm not gonna lie

12:01:31.940 --> 12:01:36.180
I keep checking my phone, you know, maybe, maybe he's got my number. I don't know.

12:01:37.540 --> 12:01:41.780
It's not gonna happen. Constantin Lily says I'm so hyped. Good to have you here, Constantin Lily.

12:01:42.340 --> 12:01:46.100

12:01:59.300 --> 12:02:06.560
Roxy has stopped gifting bozos. He's not shaving after I forbid it Roxy you might forbid it

12:02:06.560 --> 12:02:10.780
But your mother here's got the razor ready. He's got some experience. He shaved casual

12:02:11.460 --> 12:02:13.260
Got that experience

12:02:13.260 --> 12:02:16.220
Take my own head on stream lost bets. I

12:02:17.100 --> 12:02:23.660
Think that there was like fake your winning or some shit. I think it's fake or winning. No, I think was door door and winning the word championship

12:02:23.660 --> 12:02:24.840
Hmm

12:02:24.840 --> 12:02:26.780
It's Doran's a bit of a goofball, bro

12:02:26.780 --> 12:02:31.900
Like he's a good player, but the mistakes he makes he ends like randomly like once again

12:02:31.900 --> 12:02:38.380
Yes, yeah goofy. It's like his mistakes are so goofy. You know, what do you mean a cast dictionary?

12:02:38.420 --> 12:02:42.140
You see the Disney character and you see Doran like next to each other

12:02:43.380 --> 12:02:45.380
So we call them dough rat in the chat

12:02:45.820 --> 12:02:50.900
You know, what do you bring me to cast the LCS? By the way, I got I got leaks good. I got League knowledge, bro

12:02:50.900 --> 12:02:57.380
I got you bro. Well, you want to cancel yes, yes, not really bro, but I you know, let me tell you

12:02:57.380 --> 12:03:01.760
I haven't had I've co-streamed every region every damn

12:03:03.100 --> 12:03:05.920
Like international tournaments, I've got the rights to it

12:03:05.920 --> 12:03:13.580
But I've been blocked out of LEC for some reason what LEC just locked me out. But why next play it finally changes

12:03:13.580 --> 12:03:19.340
Oh, you're back. Why it's crazy. I'm back. I'm back and then I can get you in book. That's crazy

12:03:19.340 --> 12:03:21.100
Yeah, I'll cast them LAC.

12:03:21.100 --> 12:03:24.540
Actually, you know, Roxy actually went to an LAC live.

12:03:24.540 --> 12:03:25.980
We were in Berlin for an AOT event.

12:03:25.980 --> 12:03:26.820
The LAC was happening.

12:03:26.820 --> 12:03:29.740
She went with a friend of hers.

12:03:29.740 --> 12:03:32.740
You might know her, but I won't say the name just in case.

12:03:32.740 --> 12:03:36.380
They went into an LAC match during the AOT tournament.

12:03:36.380 --> 12:03:38.060
It was kind of cool.

12:03:38.060 --> 12:03:38.660
What games?

12:03:38.660 --> 12:03:40.780
What games?

12:03:40.780 --> 12:03:41.740
I don't even remember.

12:03:41.740 --> 12:03:45.100
It was a while ago, like two years ago.

12:03:45.100 --> 12:03:45.820
Well, you weren't there.

12:03:45.820 --> 12:03:47.500
She was there.

12:03:47.500 --> 12:03:48.340
That's what I'm telling you.

12:03:48.340 --> 12:03:48.820
She was there.

12:03:48.820 --> 12:03:49.260
I wasn't there.

12:03:49.260 --> 12:03:51.260
I was playing A.W.E.

12:03:51.260 --> 12:03:55.460
Hey, can't your wife tell you which games were happening?

12:03:55.460 --> 12:03:56.740
Roxy, which games were playing?

12:03:56.740 --> 12:03:57.740
Which teams?

12:03:57.740 --> 12:03:59.780
I stopped reading books, Roxy.

12:03:59.780 --> 12:04:01.140
Roxy was there for the vibes, bro.

12:04:01.140 --> 12:04:03.140
She didn't know who was playing.

12:04:03.140 --> 12:04:04.020
She was there to chill.

12:04:04.020 --> 12:04:04.740
Reckless was playing.

12:04:04.740 --> 12:04:05.420
Reckless was playing.

12:04:05.420 --> 12:04:06.700
You know, Reckless, of course you know, Reckless.

12:04:06.700 --> 12:04:09.380
Reckless was playing two years ago?

12:04:09.380 --> 12:04:11.340
Yeah, somewhere two years ago.

12:04:11.340 --> 12:04:13.500
Fanatic?

12:04:13.500 --> 12:04:14.620
Two years ago.

12:04:14.620 --> 12:04:16.900
He didn't play in the LEC two years ago.

12:04:16.900 --> 12:04:17.900
Maybe three years ago.

12:04:17.900 --> 12:04:18.980
The time that doesn't matter.

12:04:18.980 --> 12:04:20.960
maybe three, maybe four years ago.

12:04:20.960 --> 12:04:22.960
Yeah, it's three years ago, four years ago.

12:04:24.860 --> 12:04:25.780
Okay, okay.

12:04:25.780 --> 12:04:27.960
Sorry, my, my, my, my,

12:04:29.100 --> 12:04:29.940
it's 2023.

12:04:29.940 --> 12:04:33.180
My 2023, fanatic.

12:04:33.180 --> 12:04:34.860
Fanatic, fanatic, yeah.

12:04:34.860 --> 12:04:35.700
Fanatic.

12:04:35.700 --> 12:04:36.540
Fanatic.

12:04:36.540 --> 12:04:38.180
There you go, we figured that out.

12:04:39.500 --> 12:04:41.500
Hey, I think you guys are just trying to impress me.

12:04:41.500 --> 12:04:43.820
This is a story full of lies.

12:04:43.820 --> 12:04:45.180
No, no, it's very true.

12:04:45.180 --> 12:04:47.020
I know it sounded very lie, like,

12:04:47.020 --> 12:04:51.020
Nothing was accurate at all, but like it's actually a true story.

12:04:53.020 --> 12:04:58.020
When it comes to like no lies, you believe that captain?

12:04:58.020 --> 12:04:59.020
No, I don't believe it at all.

12:04:59.020 --> 12:05:01.020
Captain is a nice alright captain.

12:05:01.020 --> 12:05:04.020
Your bullshit is on on on on on on fleek bro.

12:05:04.020 --> 12:05:06.020
40 gifted by the way on YouTube.

12:05:06.020 --> 12:05:08.020
Thank you box studio for the 40 gifted on YouTube.

12:05:08.020 --> 12:05:09.020
You're a freaking legend bro.

12:05:09.020 --> 12:05:10.020
Thank you so much.

12:05:10.020 --> 12:05:11.020
They're gearing up for the next match by the way.

12:05:11.020 --> 12:05:12.020
We're just kind of waiting.

12:05:12.020 --> 12:05:14.020
Little bit of a hiccup there.

12:05:14.020 --> 12:05:16.020
But we are almost back in.

12:05:16.020 --> 12:05:22.660
Grubby is in the lobby and by the way, I see arena in there. I see arena in there

12:05:22.660 --> 12:05:24.800
So it might be about arena for Grubby

12:05:25.520 --> 12:05:27.360
What Grubby? No

12:05:28.500 --> 12:05:33.220
Can be grubby. He hasn't lost with Burgundians yet. Can you blame him honestly?

12:05:35.600 --> 12:05:40.440
Like it he could save the Burgundians when for when the arena comes, you know

12:05:40.440 --> 12:05:43.020
Which will inevitably come because piggy will pick him

12:05:43.020 --> 12:05:48.740
Guys at 10k subs I make hair go on a diet. Everybody stop gifting. This is not a joke

12:05:48.740 --> 12:05:53.900
This is not reverse psychology. Everybody stop gifting. We cannot get to 10k. I can't go on a diet, bro

12:05:53.900 --> 12:05:57.480
I got brownie waiting for me in the fridge. Seriously, please. I'm not joking

12:05:58.260 --> 12:06:05.540
And technically era your current diet is a diet. That's all true gift away boys. So maybe I

12:06:06.020 --> 12:06:12.180
Get that brownie diet is just what you eat. So whatever diet you have is a diet. I like it, bro

12:06:12.180 --> 12:06:17.300
No, you're doing like 10k calorie challenges every day, though, that's

12:06:18.580 --> 12:06:23.900
You know, I actually don't eat that much. Actually, I lost some weights. I've been stable and my current weights

12:06:25.020 --> 12:06:29.020
But I haven't been losing or gaining stable like you're eating like a horse

12:06:30.900 --> 12:06:34.260
That's not stable. It's got the feed

12:07:04.260 --> 12:07:11.260
The rest of us are taking the meals, we need to keep coming.

12:07:11.260 --> 12:07:13.700
Oh my god, Nevada, bro.

12:07:13.700 --> 12:07:16.380
Two jokes, bro, two jokes.

12:07:16.380 --> 12:07:16.880
Ah.

12:07:21.700 --> 12:07:23.380
All right, let's start the damn game.

12:07:23.380 --> 12:07:24.260
What are we doing?

12:07:24.260 --> 12:07:25.020
We're waiting, right?

12:07:25.020 --> 12:07:26.420
Grabbing Crash is back.

12:07:26.420 --> 12:07:27.500
He's in a little arena.

12:07:27.500 --> 12:07:28.580
All right.

12:07:28.580 --> 12:07:30.660
But Crash like the Rens.

12:07:30.660 --> 12:07:32.180
Yeah, exactly.

12:07:32.180 --> 12:07:34.620
How did Pig win that previous game, by the way?

12:07:34.620 --> 12:07:36.060
That's ridiculous.

12:07:36.060 --> 12:07:36.900
Like, winning that previous game?

12:07:36.900 --> 12:07:38.900
I've never seen Battle Rands, bro.

12:07:38.900 --> 12:07:39.740
Battle Rands?

12:07:39.740 --> 12:07:43.220
That's one of the worst RAM control I've ever seen, bro.

12:07:43.220 --> 12:07:44.500
It's like, you know what it is?

12:07:44.500 --> 12:07:46.220
It's like he's watched you do it once,

12:07:46.220 --> 12:07:48.300
or like somebody's told him about the strap,

12:07:48.300 --> 12:07:50.500
but he never actually tried it himself.

12:07:50.500 --> 12:07:52.140
He didn't do any looping.

12:07:52.140 --> 12:07:54.420
He just kind of forced it way down the center.

12:07:54.420 --> 12:07:56.420
Guys, I don't know why I got to type in 14.

12:07:56.420 --> 12:07:58.060
It's, we're waiting on Grubby and Pig.

12:07:58.060 --> 12:07:58.900
It's nothing I can do.

12:07:58.900 --> 12:07:59.940
I'm literally staring at him.

12:07:59.940 --> 12:08:00.780
They haven't started.

12:08:00.780 --> 12:08:03.580
Typing 14 does nothing here. Typing 14 does literally nothing.

12:08:05.580 --> 12:08:06.080
At all.

12:08:06.380 --> 12:08:07.880
But $9 in harrow.

12:08:07.880 --> 12:08:11.180
14 will increase the chance of the game starting soon.

12:08:12.780 --> 12:08:13.280
Agreed.

12:08:14.280 --> 12:08:14.880
Keep going.

12:08:17.280 --> 12:08:19.980
Uh, Yavato, for a million dollars.

12:08:20.480 --> 12:08:24.880
What's the 14 font in game? What does it mean 14? Exactly.

12:08:24.880 --> 12:08:26.480
It's uh, ready.

12:08:27.780 --> 12:08:29.280
You just lost a million dollars. I'm sorry.

12:08:30.780 --> 12:08:33.120
You mean then it start the game already

12:08:34.560 --> 12:08:38.620
Yeah, it's ready. No way. I was just being polite. Huh?

12:08:39.380 --> 12:08:44.380
Okay, you get the million chat. I need a million dollars donor right now. I gotta pay this out

12:08:45.460 --> 12:08:50.900
Data Shad, this is a 14 gifted we're hopping right in the 14 spam might have worked because they're starting the game

12:08:51.140 --> 12:08:55.940
It's gonna be Malay versus Muisca. No way pig is repeating the Muisca strats

12:08:55.940 --> 12:09:01.400
He lost against Captain Lats earlier with this and he's trying it out again in the Grand Finals

12:09:02.020 --> 12:09:07.640
Talk to me Capillans. Capillans, talking about the strategy. He did stop it with the Burgundians, but how scary was it?

12:09:07.640 --> 12:09:12.600
I don't know if I'd call it a stop. That was sketchy. It wasn't but sketchy.

12:09:13.940 --> 12:09:19.500
I think the problem with it is Grubby knows it. Yeah, like he got me way by surprise

12:09:19.640 --> 12:09:22.880
But if Grubby's expecting an attack at his base

12:09:25.940 --> 12:09:30.820
You should be able to stop it or like, you know, kind of set up some kind of give me a round up boys

12:09:30.820 --> 12:09:35.920
Oh, what are these two? What did they do? Give me a little rundown. I gotta talk about a few things

12:09:35.920 --> 12:09:38.620
First of all massive gift subs on YouTube. So thank you all for that

12:09:38.620 --> 12:09:42.440
I really appreciate everyone watching this on Twitch YouTube and the YouTube videos later as well

12:09:42.440 --> 12:09:45.340
Thank you everyone for watching and tuning in all the support's been fantastic

12:09:45.940 --> 12:09:52.280
Grubby going for the Malay. I do want to mention something not picking up a gun against Grubby will for sure play another arena set

12:09:52.280 --> 12:09:56.120
100% he will play one more arena game if he's going with the Malay here

12:09:56.120 --> 12:10:00.320
I'm almost 100% confident because he's been undefeated on Burgundians arena

12:10:00.320 --> 12:10:04.400
And there's no way he's playing the grand finals without playing that one. So by playing Malay

12:10:04.400 --> 12:10:06.920
He's actually forced his hand into another arena game

12:10:07.440 --> 12:10:12.120
This is an obvious read in my opinion for pig to make although it's not really relevant for now

12:10:12.120 --> 12:10:14.960
But it could be relevant for the next map that grubby will pick

12:10:15.600 --> 12:10:18.120
But for now, let's talk about Malay Muisca Muisca

12:10:18.120 --> 12:10:20.680
We've seen earlier from pig. You haven't watched that set was fantastic

12:10:20.680 --> 12:10:23.220
Pagress is tapping Lance in the upper bracket finals

12:10:23.720 --> 12:10:26.680
Moisica was used to employ a temple guard and

12:10:27.000 --> 12:10:29.780
Ram push temple guard is the unit that comes out of the monastery

12:10:29.780 --> 12:10:34.880
It's a very strong and tanky infantry unit with Rams. You get a little bit of like some Yamato Ram

12:10:35.520 --> 12:10:40.720
Ramurai so like the samurai Ram strategy something similar could come out from the Moisica except you don't need a castle

12:10:40.920 --> 12:10:42.520
Malay can do a whole bunch of things

12:10:42.520 --> 12:10:46.760
But that is what's to expect from pig unless he's got something different plan for us now Yamato

12:10:46.760 --> 12:10:51.920
What do you make of the strategy as the guy who's done it yourself with something a little different, but more or less the same idea

12:10:52.720 --> 12:10:56.560
But that's the thing like I'm asking what is what is the what is the like?

12:10:56.560 --> 12:11:01.820
Do they get like some secret bonus so they get like something armor for free give me give me the give me the juice

12:11:01.820 --> 12:11:04.160
Like what is what is the bonus of Malay and?

12:11:04.960 --> 12:11:08.300
Musica what are they called? Yeah, so the risk you get

12:11:09.240 --> 12:11:15.000
Temple guards for this rush. Okay, first of all they can upgrade to the next age with 50% gold discount

12:11:15.000 --> 12:11:19.160
So, Feudal Age, they get another set, but Castle Age, they can save 100 gold for it.

12:11:19.160 --> 12:11:23.320
Okay, so right off the bat, you know, Fast Imp is possible to get, they save 100 gold

12:11:23.320 --> 12:11:28.200
up to Castle Age, pretty good. They also get cheaper settlements, I think 25% cheaper settlements,

12:11:28.200 --> 12:11:32.440
so pretty good early game start. You can collect Stone too, huh? Yeah, you can collect Stone,

12:11:32.440 --> 12:11:37.080
you can collect Wood, all from the same settlements, so fantastic, you've seen the vision here.

12:11:37.720 --> 12:11:41.880
And then on top of that, you get the Temple Guard from the Monastery, so it's a unique

12:11:41.880 --> 12:11:49.080
units to the Muska and it has 100 HP, 1-1 armors and it fights very well. It has 12 attack

12:11:49.080 --> 12:11:53.960
and the more it hits the faster it attacks. It's very good. All right. Oh, this is like Jax.

12:11:54.680 --> 12:11:58.520
It's like Jax from League of Legends. Exactly. It's very racialized. Good. Mealy unit.

12:11:58.520 --> 12:12:02.920
When did it come out of the monastery? Like resist conversion? Because my conversions were

12:12:02.920 --> 12:12:06.840
taken forever on those things. It doesn't resist conversion as far as I know. I think you can

12:12:06.840 --> 12:12:12.840
can convert them like any other unit. I was just imagining that. Yeah. Well, he kept hopping

12:12:12.840 --> 12:12:17.200
in and out of the ramps. That's the reason conversion is fake. conversion is fake. You

12:12:17.200 --> 12:12:21.120
just need to bring right at bring a little siege tower and just jump into the siege tower

12:12:21.120 --> 12:12:29.960
when you hear because it's two seconds and then pop in and then out. Yeah. That's actually

12:12:29.960 --> 12:12:35.080
first of all, beautiful willow low sound. Very, very deep voice for it. It's like it

12:12:35.080 --> 12:12:39.200
hit home but also a very good commentary from your matter here is each tower or

12:12:39.200 --> 12:12:42.920
even a ram if you garrison you can break the convert that's really good and

12:12:42.920 --> 12:12:47.600
actually Tamlan's pig was doing that to you he bought a ram he got into the ram

12:12:47.600 --> 12:12:53.520
yeah yeah I'm gonna convert him it's a very good counter to the monks which is

12:12:53.520 --> 12:12:58.240
the obvious counter to the temple guards but of course guys what is that human

12:12:58.240 --> 12:13:04.700
with a hammer? Sector of scouts? Sector of scouts. Does he run as quick as a

12:13:04.700 --> 12:13:10.780
horse no a little bit slower but still he runs pretty fast yeah all right he's got better vision

12:13:10.780 --> 12:13:16.540
to you though thank you oh really yeah heard of the games got better vision he's kind of like

12:13:16.540 --> 12:13:20.300
uh kind of like the Eagle Warrior yeah it's kind of weird that the guy on a scout a guy on a horse

12:13:20.300 --> 12:13:25.820
has less vision than the guy just running bit strange there but the scouts have helmets you know

12:13:25.820 --> 12:13:32.620
these fucking poorly designed helmets poorly designed helmets it's like the helmets of Ali

12:13:32.620 --> 12:13:37.900
express like they were cheap but they're not very good. We ska here with the

12:13:37.900 --> 12:13:43.420
champions go going to be feeling pretty good. Well grubby study push from

12:13:43.420 --> 12:13:49.460
Osaka and then grubby. Grubby with the ballet. What are their bonuses? So many

12:13:49.460 --> 12:13:54.660
options. Like do to get do to get like some infantry armor, some free business.

12:13:54.660 --> 12:13:58.660
They get infantry armor for free as the age up. You've been mentioned that a lot.

12:13:58.660 --> 12:14:02.700
I guess you want me to mention it. They do get infantry armor for free, which is good

12:14:02.700 --> 12:14:05.140
You can also play towards the carambits

12:14:05.140 --> 12:14:09.120
So grab you could go for like stone might a lot of stone drop a cast or go carambits

12:14:09.120 --> 12:14:13.700
We throw things relaxes with the pyramid war is the cheap infantry

12:14:14.260 --> 12:14:16.540
That are very spammable right cheap very spammable

12:14:17.140 --> 12:14:22.140
It's one option something like Captain Lance might employ. I think we've seen it from him earlier in the tournament

12:14:22.980 --> 12:14:25.460
But I think you can play a whole bunch of strategies with melee

12:14:25.460 --> 12:14:28.620
So it's very flexible depending on what grabby does. I'll kind of break it down for you guys

12:14:30.780 --> 12:14:32.780
Okay

12:14:33.260 --> 12:14:39.260
Class go in again, we're just hearing villages punch things. Yeah, it's pretty sad

12:14:39.260 --> 12:14:41.380
He likes the cheap elephants from Malay

12:14:42.260 --> 12:14:46.620
That's true. Actually. Yeah, that's been his main his main unit. So just boom to cheap elephants

12:14:46.620 --> 12:14:48.620
You reckon some pretty good the approach from him. I

12:14:50.620 --> 12:14:53.420
Mean, I don't know if it's a good approach. I think it's what he's gonna do though

12:14:53.420 --> 12:14:59.660
I think that's from far from that. If we're talking about temple guards coming in, well,

12:14:59.660 --> 12:15:03.100
actually, the elephants could be okay against temple guards, maybe. I've actually never seen

12:15:03.100 --> 12:15:06.220
that matchup happen, so it could be an interesting counter unit.

12:15:06.220 --> 12:15:11.020
Do they have any bonus damage? They like the shory scouts, but I don't know if that's just

12:15:11.020 --> 12:15:16.300
because they're just a chunky unit or what? They get the bonus damage versus cavalry,

12:15:16.300 --> 12:15:20.140
but it was on the new patch. I think they get plus six, but I could be wrong. I think temple

12:15:20.140 --> 12:15:24.380
The guards do get actual bonus damage against Cavalry, and they also attack really fast.

12:15:24.380 --> 12:15:27.380
I would say they should destroy elephants.

12:15:27.380 --> 12:15:28.780
They should destroy buildings as well.

12:15:28.780 --> 12:15:29.940
It's a very, very good unit.

12:15:29.940 --> 12:15:32.180
I think you have to play monks against it.

12:15:32.180 --> 12:15:35.860
You have to play some kind of archery against it.

12:15:35.860 --> 12:15:40.220
Chat is saying plus 8, I think maybe plus 6 against Cavalry, but either way it's pretty

12:15:40.220 --> 12:15:41.220
good.

12:15:41.220 --> 12:15:42.540
Plus 3 or plus 5 against elephants.

12:15:42.540 --> 12:15:44.900
Okay, plus 3 against Cap, plus 5 against elephants.

12:15:44.900 --> 12:15:48.180
I think they changed it to plus 6, so.

12:15:48.180 --> 12:15:49.180
Stable.

12:15:49.180 --> 12:15:56.180
I really like the resources from Grubby, lining up perfectly for the up.

12:15:56.180 --> 12:15:58.180
You get those with Malay here.

12:16:01.180 --> 12:16:06.180
But Malay spills a bit fast from Malay. I think normally you want to go up a little later.

12:16:06.180 --> 12:16:12.180
He's going to have trouble affording his different units because Malay can up so fast to the next stage,

12:16:12.180 --> 12:16:16.180
which is good because you get there faster, but it's bad because you get there so fast

12:16:16.180 --> 12:16:20.540
fast you don't really have the time to collect resources to make units so

12:16:20.540 --> 12:16:24.740
normally what pros would do with malaise is make a few extra villagers early on so

12:16:24.740 --> 12:16:27.700
that by the time they get the castlage it would be like a regular time but you

12:16:27.700 --> 12:16:31.460
have more resources to work with by the way Grubby has entered into the bay.

12:16:31.460 --> 12:16:36.260
Oh my word he's downstrapped. You can't scout the forward. Yeah you can't scout the forward and look at this pig

12:16:36.260 --> 12:16:40.860
sneaks out this is both good and bad for Grubby it's terrible if he runs into the town center though.

12:16:40.860 --> 12:16:45.540
He's gonna scout the base from pigs he gets a lot of information he's marked

12:16:45.540 --> 12:16:49.800
blacksmith he's gonna see that maybe there's no towns and is coming up later

12:16:49.800 --> 12:16:53.280
but the same time it's bad because you can't scout the four villagers we do

12:16:53.280 --> 12:17:00.680
have a loom in for pig this run to a cheetah he'll beat that guy to death

12:17:00.680 --> 12:17:06.720
what would jaguar bro oh it's a jaguar my phone my phone cheetahs are tiny

12:17:06.720 --> 12:17:12.480
bro no respect no respect no respect no respect

12:17:12.480 --> 12:17:17.580
dude we're walking in the dark though brother we're walking in the dark where's

12:17:17.580 --> 12:17:21.440
the chompy to give us vision bo and he's chasing the scout he's chasing it

12:17:21.440 --> 12:17:29.480
he's chasing a goose around I don't know no food for scalp production yeah this

12:17:29.480 --> 12:17:32.040
is exactly like I said like no food scalp production it's actually very low

12:17:32.040 --> 12:17:36.320
resources in general he's making a town center up he's getting a town center up

12:17:36.320 --> 12:17:39.760
he's the only file in food so he's economy is really fragile and if you

12:17:39.760 --> 12:17:42.760
gets pushed at the same time this is disastrous for grubby i think grubby is

12:17:42.760 --> 12:17:48.080
in a really bad position strategically right now what kind of elephant can he

12:17:48.080 --> 12:17:52.640
make is it cavalry by elephant what kind of elephant is it it's a battle elephant

12:17:52.640 --> 12:17:59.640
and it's quite cheap to get a big this shoot the punch attack fight melee okay

12:17:59.640 --> 12:18:03.240
bro took you some took your time to get there bro

12:18:03.240 --> 12:18:08.880
I don't mind it did sound maybe a little a little rash how I said it but no

12:18:08.880 --> 12:18:12.960
Anything for your mind. I got I got questions. You got questions. I got answers. I got you, bro

12:18:13.080 --> 12:18:15.760
Okay, I just want to know what type of elephant we're talking about here

12:18:15.760 --> 12:18:21.560
I'm just thinking like if it's a melee elephant, then it's solid against the the workshop units that are coming up

12:18:21.560 --> 12:18:26.000
Yeah, fantastic. It's not gonna be an elephant coming up though. I don't think I'm stuck in the

12:18:26.000 --> 12:18:28.640
This ram have ever seen boo. I don't think I'm stuck in the stable

12:18:29.160 --> 12:18:33.980
It's just gonna be a scout and a spear Ram comes out early. That's a hot dog bun right there, bro

12:18:33.980 --> 12:18:37.880
That's a bun and a hot dog right there that ram. Do you see it?

12:18:38.880 --> 12:18:42.320
He's got to un-cue the smoke and get a temple guard out like A$AP.

12:18:42.820 --> 12:18:45.140
Yeah, temple guard coming out. He does do that.

12:18:45.140 --> 12:18:48.280
The ram might die though. The ram might die as a jaguar out in the field.

12:18:48.280 --> 12:18:49.640
Repair, repair, repair!

12:18:51.480 --> 12:18:52.480
No repairs?

12:18:53.280 --> 12:18:54.940
Oh my god, no repairs.

12:18:55.080 --> 12:18:56.080
It's kind of terrible, no?

12:18:59.180 --> 12:19:00.980
Oh, Grubby kills a villager too. Wow!

12:19:01.280 --> 12:19:05.680
Grubby kills a villager. That's a big buying of time from Grubby.

12:19:05.680 --> 12:19:09.520
And despite him being in the kind of a bad position earlier, I feel like now it's a fantastic position

12:19:09.520 --> 12:19:12.040
He's stole down the push a lot. Simple guts coming out now

12:19:14.680 --> 12:19:18.440
But I'm liking this Musaka strat, bro like this feels at home. Yeah

12:19:20.200 --> 12:19:26.000
Yeah, it is Jax. We have the fucking lamp. It's Jax. It's literally Jax from League of Legends

12:19:27.920 --> 12:19:30.960
And he hits like a truck, by the way, he hits really really hard

12:19:30.960 --> 12:19:36.240
Two Rams, Monk defense, but of course we talked about how you can counter play the Monks by hopping in and out of the Ram

12:19:36.480 --> 12:19:41.240
So many frickin Jaguars and Cheetahs. Tim, we get these guys out of the field. Thank you

12:19:41.240 --> 12:19:46.760
Just mutual agreement. Mutual agreement. Just kill the wildlife then we can fight. Got a team up against these Jags

12:19:46.760 --> 12:19:52.160
I like your settlement, right? That's a settlement, right? It's a monastery. Oh, a monastery, a second one.

12:19:52.160 --> 12:19:54.960
Deccan Monastery is going to go to Mass Tempokhards. What's crazy about these Jaxes?

12:19:56.040 --> 12:19:59.200
Tempokhards cost, I think, 80 food, 20 gold.

12:19:59.200 --> 12:20:02.640
Well, they're quite expensive actually, or maybe even 55 golds in my bag.

12:20:02.640 --> 12:20:05.960
Can he sustain that then? It's kind of optimistic that 2-1 is there isn't it?

12:20:05.960 --> 12:20:09.200
He can't sustain it too long, but it's an all-in push, so he just needs a little bit

12:20:09.200 --> 12:20:11.800
of extra production right now. He's not really worried about the later.

12:20:11.800 --> 12:20:15.000
He's gonna lose another villager though. So, Grabby's done a fantastic job of buying

12:20:15.000 --> 12:20:20.480
some time here. Two rems are coming in. This push has to hit right now, and it has to hit

12:20:20.480 --> 12:20:23.800
hard. Grabby, no workshop though. Grabby's got no defense.

12:20:23.800 --> 12:20:27.440
She should've wall off. Grabby has done a fantastic job of buying time, but he's got

12:20:27.440 --> 12:20:31.280
No defense! He's undercommitting! The Monks alone are not gonna be enough!

12:20:31.280 --> 12:20:33.600
The two rams are coming in! We need the manganelles!

12:20:34.600 --> 12:20:35.800
What the elephant voice?

12:20:36.240 --> 12:20:37.840
Oh my god! Oh my god!

12:20:38.640 --> 12:20:41.520
This scout's got melted! Pig is about to destroy Grubby's base!

12:20:41.520 --> 12:20:43.200
Oh he knows! He knows!

12:20:43.840 --> 12:20:44.760
He knows, Yamato!

12:20:45.120 --> 12:20:48.440
Gets in! Doggy's with conversion! He's gonna be in with two rams!

12:20:49.480 --> 12:20:52.520
Oh my god! Grubby is gonna get destroyed by this, by the way!

12:20:56.160 --> 12:20:57.400
Gotta get inside the rams!

12:20:57.440 --> 12:21:00.480
Oh, he checks the other side. He checks the other side

12:21:01.560 --> 12:21:04.720
Legends, but grubbies out grubbies out grubbies got a conversion

12:21:07.840 --> 12:21:10.280
I'm just coming out villagers to fight villagers to fight

12:21:10.760 --> 12:21:16.240
No, we'll just repair grubbies that kill one round though great play from grubby though great play from grubbies does have a loom

12:21:16.360 --> 12:21:20.200
He's gonna get a conversion now to conversions for grubby grubbies in a hole two conversions

12:21:20.200 --> 12:21:24.120
They'll just come out the ramps are down what a hole from grubby. Oh my god

12:21:24.120 --> 12:21:29.880
Holy moly Grubby this is some Brazilian jujitsu.

12:21:29.880 --> 12:21:31.760
Fantastic hold.

12:21:31.760 --> 12:21:35.440
Crazy defense.

12:21:35.440 --> 12:21:37.080
One Magina still in the field.

12:21:37.080 --> 12:21:39.440
Grubby's villages are all over the place though.

12:21:39.440 --> 12:21:43.760
You gotta watch out.

12:21:43.760 --> 12:21:45.360
Nice mango shot there on the villager.

12:21:45.360 --> 12:21:47.360
Pig had a great rush.

12:21:47.360 --> 12:21:49.120
But I don't know what happened.

12:21:49.120 --> 12:21:50.520
The Rams just got completely melted.

12:21:50.520 --> 12:21:54.080
The temple guard not great into these town centers that seems to have no upgrades on

12:21:54.080 --> 12:21:57.140
them so the raw stats are decent but if you don't upgrade them I mean they're

12:21:57.140 --> 12:22:03.920
gonna die to the town centers. I gotta ask about the double monastery by once

12:22:03.920 --> 12:22:07.560
again because that lumber would have been nice like the steady production of

12:22:07.560 --> 12:22:11.720
rams would have been so important but these buildings are just idle. Yeah

12:22:11.720 --> 12:22:15.120
honestly Yamato you might be right just extra ram instead of the second

12:22:15.120 --> 12:22:18.400
monastery and just keep pumping out of one because you can't even afford one

12:22:18.400 --> 12:22:22.160
now let alone two you might be right on that Yamato that could have cost them the

12:22:22.160 --> 12:22:25.200
game because just one extra ram could have been the difference between killing

12:22:25.200 --> 12:22:28.880
and killing the TC and breaking the base and not doing so.

12:22:30.640 --> 12:22:32.240
So I commit a bit more to this micro.

12:22:32.800 --> 12:22:33.720
But good monk defense.

12:22:33.720 --> 12:22:35.360
Good monk micro from Grubby.

12:22:36.280 --> 12:22:37.800
He converts and he moves out of the way.

12:22:37.920 --> 12:22:39.240
An elephant comes out now.

12:22:39.240 --> 12:22:41.840
Perfect timing to talk day and night about this battle of elephants.

12:22:41.840 --> 12:22:43.880
He's going in the amount of what kind of elephants is this?

12:22:44.840 --> 12:22:46.440
Holy, it shoots.

12:22:48.800 --> 12:22:49.760
No, bro, it hits.

12:22:49.760 --> 12:22:50.240
And it hits.

12:22:50.640 --> 12:22:51.320
It hits.

12:22:52.160 --> 12:23:00.720
That's whatever you wanted to do, bro. It's a goddamn elephant, but it has little shoes too. Look at those. It's got some shoes

12:23:03.440 --> 12:23:06.280
It's got the ankle bracelet, it's not allowed to leave the house, you know

12:23:13.200 --> 12:23:16.240
That guy's dangerous I got done some shit

12:23:16.240 --> 12:23:23.960
I liked how the ram was attacking the elephant, knee-capping him just crazy.

12:23:23.960 --> 12:23:29.920
Yeah, I think Krabi's in a good position though, he's in a wall, he's up 20 builds.

12:23:29.920 --> 12:23:31.640
He's converting a worker?

12:23:31.640 --> 12:23:34.240
He's converting a worker?

12:23:34.240 --> 12:23:38.280
That's actually huge, we can use a few more workers on our side.

12:23:38.280 --> 12:23:40.920
The undarred soon to get a tuple guard past the house.

12:23:40.920 --> 12:23:44.040
Yeah, on the other side you can do that actually, it's a little bit of an exploit, shout out

12:23:44.040 --> 12:23:49.680
of the spitting Brit. Barracks goes down. Dude, is it just me or is this push live again?

12:23:49.680 --> 12:23:57.240
The push is so live. We have three Rams. Yeah, so many Rams. Grubby defended it once, but

12:23:57.240 --> 12:24:01.520
can you do it again? And this time with like a third Ram, he's like a tower. Towers aren't

12:24:01.520 --> 12:24:04.840
that good. I'd like to see Fletching. If we're going to go for tower defense, Fletching's

12:24:04.840 --> 12:24:09.160
going to be very, very important. Three Rams, we're kind of housing Grubby. Grubby's going

12:24:09.160 --> 12:24:13.720
to have a housing crisis right now. Can't make more units. We're going to go for it.

12:24:13.720 --> 12:24:15.960
The push onto the Townsend is three rams this time.

12:24:15.960 --> 12:24:17.960
We have a lot of Pimple Guards coming out.

12:24:19.220 --> 12:24:20.160
Monks to converts.

12:24:20.160 --> 12:24:22.400
Grubby knows what he has to do, he's gotta convert.

12:24:22.400 --> 12:24:25.880
Then a hop out with the villagers to target one ram, converts.

12:24:25.880 --> 12:24:27.960
No units so far, but he's gonna kill one ram,

12:24:27.960 --> 12:24:29.640
hops in and out, hops out.

12:24:29.640 --> 12:24:31.200
Great play with the Townsender there.

12:24:31.200 --> 12:24:32.440
He needs to get some repairs.

12:24:32.440 --> 12:24:33.920
Hop out, the other side.

12:24:33.920 --> 12:24:36.640
Beautiful play from Grubby, he's gonna kill all three rams.

12:24:36.640 --> 12:24:38.440
And he's got the Monk in the tower.

12:24:38.440 --> 12:24:40.640
Oh my God, another Holt from Grubby.

12:24:40.640 --> 12:24:42.200
Really, really well played.

12:24:43.720 --> 12:24:46.720
Holy grubby. Dude, he's so good.

12:24:47.720 --> 12:24:53.720
This is the first time I see Musaka, and I gotta say, the Ramorize is way better.

12:24:53.720 --> 12:24:57.720
You get a little dash, they attack faster, they do more damage.

12:24:58.720 --> 12:25:02.720
Because these temple warriors don't seem to have any piercing armor.

12:25:02.720 --> 12:25:06.720
They're basically walking in their nude, they're getting one tapped.

12:25:06.720 --> 12:25:09.720
They have one pierce armor, but did you feel a bit squishy?

12:25:09.720 --> 12:25:11.720
I feel like they should be tankier, honestly.

12:25:11.720 --> 12:25:14.980
Samurai have less stats with the tank here. They got like more bravery stat or something.

12:25:14.980 --> 12:25:17.060
You know, the Samurai got something else though.

12:25:17.060 --> 12:25:20.600
Also, the Samurai's benefit from popping in and out because of the

12:25:20.600 --> 12:25:24.680
Inheritability, but you told me these guys need to hit, right? They need to punch for a while.

12:25:24.680 --> 12:25:27.560
Yeah, yeah, that's true. The synergy is not the same.

12:25:31.060 --> 12:25:33.380
Um, outpost in the map maybe.

12:25:34.880 --> 12:25:37.800
Pig is still trying. Credit to Pig. The rush has been solid.

12:25:37.800 --> 12:25:40.040
He's still trying to run around to the couple temple guards.

12:25:40.040 --> 12:25:42.740
He's gonna add a town center. He could just try to play the late game.

12:25:42.740 --> 12:25:45.540
And remember, last game, like the first game here, the game one,

12:25:45.540 --> 12:25:48.740
he had a disaster swash, he boomed, still won the late game.

12:25:50.240 --> 12:25:51.240
That's true.

12:25:51.240 --> 12:25:52.440
Can happen again.

12:25:53.340 --> 12:25:56.340
I don't call those town centers. I call those cope centers.

12:25:56.340 --> 12:25:59.540
We're gonna try to catch up on the double TC.

12:25:59.540 --> 12:26:00.540
But maybe it works.

12:26:00.540 --> 12:26:01.040
Maybe it works.

12:26:01.040 --> 12:26:02.740
You're right, he pulled it off the last game.

12:26:02.740 --> 12:26:04.140
He pulled it off the last game.

12:26:04.540 --> 12:26:06.340
I'm never gonna doubt Piggy again.

12:26:08.140 --> 12:26:09.440
Snipes a free Magnano.

12:26:10.040 --> 12:26:13.400
gets out no conversions no conversions

12:26:13.400 --> 12:26:17.320
Grubby's walking face first Grubby has to delete this guy

12:26:17.320 --> 12:26:21.400
holy oh oh Grubby has atonement

12:26:21.400 --> 12:26:24.920
Grubby has atonement converted the monk

12:26:24.920 --> 12:26:28.360
atonement just happened he converted the monk he had to attack to let him

12:26:28.360 --> 12:26:31.640
convert the monk he's converting a second monk right now

12:26:31.640 --> 12:26:34.680
he's converting one of the temple guards Grubby's healing he's got to convert the

12:26:34.680 --> 12:26:37.800
temple guard he's healing the monk

12:26:37.800 --> 12:26:42.800
One conversion onto the Temple Guard, Village is getting involved with the Ram.

12:26:45.800 --> 12:26:47.800
Holy, I didn't even know you could do that.

12:26:49.800 --> 12:26:56.800
Yeah, this is beyond your capacity though Yamato. We didn't even leave to the Imperial Age in our games with you my friend, but...

12:26:56.800 --> 12:26:59.800
Maybe if it's a war I could pull out some of these.

12:26:59.800 --> 12:27:04.800
You're talking smack, but they are fighting to the death on Castle. What's happening on your screen right now?

12:27:04.800 --> 12:27:09.700
That's true. This is this is prime time your motto gameplay. That's that's for sure. It's Rams got infantry

12:27:09.900 --> 12:27:15.020
This is all you bro. It's my Pokemon. This is we need a Japanese in here. Don't know the moussaka's

12:27:15.020 --> 12:27:19.860
The funny thing is the funny thing is you know, I used to work at a Greek restaurant

12:27:19.860 --> 12:27:24.860
I used to serve moussaka's every time you say that I laugh because I know exactly what you're talking about

12:27:25.180 --> 12:27:28.280
Of course, it is the Mouska, but Moussaka sounds a lot better

12:27:30.520 --> 12:27:34.200
But I kind of agree the amount of I feel like the Mouska is okay for this rush

12:27:34.200 --> 12:27:36.840
but I think the Samurais were better.

12:27:36.840 --> 12:27:38.840
They just straight up better. They had better synergy.

12:27:39.880 --> 12:27:43.400
You know the cool thing about the Samurais ability goes down while they're in the ram?

12:27:44.200 --> 12:27:44.840
Yep.

12:27:45.720 --> 12:27:46.440
Broken.

12:27:46.440 --> 12:27:47.400
Yeah, good synergy.

12:27:48.600 --> 12:27:51.320
Here we're hitting faster though. The more we hit, the faster we hit with these guys.

12:27:52.200 --> 12:27:53.960
Elephant's getting involved here.

12:27:53.960 --> 12:27:56.520
Grubby just re-walls. Grubby's gonna pick up the relics.

12:27:56.520 --> 12:27:57.800
Grubby's up a thousand score.

12:27:59.000 --> 12:28:00.440
But Piggy has no reason to resign.

12:28:00.440 --> 12:28:07.760
Inefficiency there on the on the Mangolasi you can attack both buildings no well

12:28:07.760 --> 12:28:11.640
there's a space between the Monastery there's a canyon it's also a space

12:28:11.640 --> 12:28:20.680
There's a space. Come on now. Unfortunately there's a space man. I like the energy amount of I think you try

12:28:20.680 --> 12:28:26.040
you shoot in the middle and you hit you'd hit neither and that'd be good

12:28:26.040 --> 12:28:30.320
I think Grubby's looking at the imp. He's gonna castle forward.

12:28:30.320 --> 12:28:36.880
He's gonna go for the forward castle. I like the PC2TC play from Malay. Just pick up some relics.

12:28:36.880 --> 12:28:40.600
He's got the map back in his favor.

12:28:40.600 --> 12:28:45.920
He's picking up all the relics as well. It's fantastic. He's gonna feel the buildings. Once you clear the buildings, you can just go forward castle.

12:28:45.920 --> 12:28:50.800
Uncontested, unscouted.

12:28:50.800 --> 12:28:55.560
Imp is in. Wow. Faster imp from Malay as well. Forward castle could be insane for Grubby here.

12:28:55.560 --> 12:28:59.320
He's gonna finish off big you're not gonna give pig the time. He's big getting all these late game

12:29:00.800 --> 12:29:05.420
Technologies and a little bit of a pause here pig needs a second. No problem my friend

12:29:05.640 --> 12:29:09.500
Then only grab your pausing you know pick your positive every now and then no problem

12:29:15.000 --> 12:29:20.080
Take up my contact lens that we are back. No worries. It's 4 a.m. Like my eyes

12:29:20.600 --> 12:29:24.060
I'm awake, but my eyes are dried out, you know, like yeah

12:29:24.060 --> 12:29:26.060
Yeah, two raisins.

12:29:26.060 --> 12:29:30.060
I don't know how I feel.

12:29:30.060 --> 12:29:33.060
I do not miss using Contacts.

12:29:33.060 --> 12:29:36.060
As always, Helga set up some new ones, hopefully.

12:29:36.060 --> 12:29:38.060
But Kevillans, talk to me about this Mooska.

12:29:38.060 --> 12:29:40.060
It failed earlier. Failed again.

12:29:40.060 --> 12:29:42.060
Don't you feel like Pig might have been...

12:29:42.060 --> 12:29:45.060
Maybe a little ambitious trying it again after it failed earlier

12:29:45.060 --> 12:29:46.060
and Grubby knew about it?

12:29:46.060 --> 12:29:49.060
I feel like that might have been a bad call in the Grand Finals.

12:29:49.060 --> 12:29:53.060
I mean, I kind of think, yeah, reusing it.

12:29:53.060 --> 12:29:59.500
I like the idea if he if he used the same sieve, but then like did a fake out and did a different strat with yeah

12:29:59.500 --> 12:30:01.500
I agree. Um, I

12:30:02.620 --> 12:30:05.180
Feel like it could have really worked though

12:30:05.180 --> 12:30:11.540
I didn't I didn't really like grubby's defense initially, but I think I don't know what a forever reason pig was a lot slower

12:30:11.540 --> 12:30:14.500
I'm getting a temple card. Yeah, like a lot of idle resources initially

12:30:14.980 --> 12:30:21.020
And that gave grubby a lot of time to get like monastery and yeah, he's workshop down

12:30:21.020 --> 12:30:27.480
Yeah, I agree. I think I especially like those jaguars as well. Everything was just kind of slowing down the push but

12:30:28.620 --> 12:30:32.280
Yeah, Grubby says pig is in deep water is a quote from Hera

12:30:33.940 --> 12:30:39.780
Yeah, I think pig is actually need to take the check the tech tree doesn't know what to do past that temple guard rush

12:30:39.780 --> 12:30:41.100
It was a cheese prepared

12:30:41.100 --> 12:30:46.580
There's got nothing else after the cheese and grubby going for a forward castle. This is completely over

12:30:46.580 --> 12:30:51.320
We are currently in deep waters, but only grubby knows that a swim pig is gonna drown very soon

12:30:51.320 --> 12:30:55.160
Forward castle fast temp ladies and gentlemen. This is complete wraps pig has a

12:30:56.420 --> 12:30:58.820
0.1% chance to win from this position legitimately

12:30:59.740 --> 12:31:06.260
Yeah, he's also going champion warriors, which are gonna just get smashed by elephants true and converted by monks

12:31:06.820 --> 12:31:08.820
Happiest do nothing here

12:31:08.820 --> 12:31:20.260
forward castle, this stuff by grubby, imp is in, pig isn't resigned, you can fight on as

12:31:20.260 --> 12:31:27.260
long as you want, and yeah keep in mind last game looked bad for pig as well, so I definitely

12:31:27.260 --> 12:31:30.580
recommend he continues to play as long as he feels like there's still a chance to come

12:31:30.580 --> 12:31:36.420
back but this is going to be tough, grubby needs to shoot the wall now with the castle,

12:31:36.420 --> 12:31:39.720
There we go. We could shoot the gate if you want, but shooting a wall is usually more advisable.

12:31:42.220 --> 12:31:44.220
Jabba says, winnable, pick W.

12:31:44.220 --> 12:31:48.020
You never know, bros. Maybe the Master of Comebacks had a 3TC setup.

12:31:48.520 --> 12:31:50.220
He's got Arbor and Squires going up.

12:31:50.220 --> 12:31:53.420
He's not in, but he's going to go for a lot of Champion spam and Castle edge.

12:31:53.420 --> 12:31:56.420
Me and Captain Lance not really too vibing with this idea.

12:31:56.720 --> 12:31:59.520
A lot of Monks here from Grubby prioritizing Town Patrol.

12:31:59.520 --> 12:32:02.120
Most pro players don't prioritize this upgrade, but

12:32:02.420 --> 12:32:06.020
it seems like the players in this tournament, especially Grubby, really values that vision.

12:32:06.020 --> 12:32:08.020
Damn, like that vision is really important.

12:32:11.220 --> 12:32:14.320
I love it. I come back to Proxy Castle.

12:32:14.320 --> 12:32:14.820
Yep.

12:32:14.820 --> 12:32:16.320
This is living.

12:32:16.320 --> 12:32:18.320
This is HMM butters.

12:32:19.820 --> 12:32:21.320
Granvids coming out. Yamato.

12:32:21.320 --> 12:32:22.820
We talked with the Cranbot Warriors.

12:32:22.820 --> 12:32:25.320
They're very cheap. They actually only take half a population.

12:32:25.820 --> 12:32:27.020
Oh, that's crazy.

12:32:27.020 --> 12:32:28.220
You can really spam them out.

12:32:28.220 --> 12:32:29.820
And then the Elephant in the front line.

12:32:29.820 --> 12:32:30.820
A couple conversions on the back.

12:32:30.820 --> 12:32:31.820
Oh, that's so fast.

12:32:31.820 --> 12:32:32.520
Yep.

12:32:32.520 --> 12:32:33.220
Damn.

12:32:33.220 --> 12:32:35.020
So cheap, scammable, fast, quick unit.

12:32:35.020 --> 12:32:37.860
You just swarmed the opponent like ants basically as if the game plan there

12:32:39.020 --> 12:32:45.300
Hmm. I like that. It's like a Zergling. Yeah for the Starcraft fellas some zergling is going in

12:32:46.660 --> 12:32:50.180
He's going straight for the most moral part of the game. Look at the loop

12:32:51.140 --> 12:32:54.660
looping around elephant to distract commandments to loop a

12:32:55.060 --> 12:32:57.900
Lot of villagers running away amongst to convert some workers as well

12:32:58.540 --> 12:33:00.700
Somehow piggas found his way up to Imperial Age

12:33:00.700 --> 12:33:07.080
And he's going up from that back to you see it would be crazy presence of mind if grabby just takes a trebuchet and goes to that back

12:33:07.080 --> 12:33:12.600
Town center knowing his opponent might be up to end forward castle with the converted villagers. Oh my god and

12:33:13.240 --> 12:33:16.540
Gribby wall dude. It's cooking. He is cooking

12:33:18.680 --> 12:33:25.380
Jesus need a wall need a wall grabby misses it. He's got monks convert. He's got extra workers coming in though. He'll be fine

12:33:30.700 --> 12:33:32.700
There they are

12:33:32.700 --> 12:33:34.700
The whole gang is here

12:33:34.900 --> 12:33:36.500
Cass is going up

12:33:36.500 --> 12:33:39.740
Thanks that umpies there. They're punching some villages down

12:33:40.340 --> 12:33:43.100
They're doing okay. They're doing okay, but it's like

12:33:45.140 --> 12:33:49.060
They're doing okay, but they're not expected to win this game from this position

12:33:54.820 --> 12:33:56.420
They're gonna call these villagers though

12:33:56.420 --> 12:34:02.380
It's actually like more than we can ask for when these few few units dude. This is a doubt castle if I've ever seen one

12:34:03.260 --> 12:34:05.940
85% all the villagers are dead is probably throwing this game

12:34:07.180 --> 12:34:11.140
Townsend is still up. There's no way he's throwing right, but like then again

12:34:11.780 --> 12:34:15.080
He said that last game pig might be like the comeback genius

12:34:17.860 --> 12:34:22.100
The CC though they're just coming in you see he's gonna go down it's a miracle

12:34:22.100 --> 12:34:26.020
It's still up got their pairs down, but he said we'll go down to the next shop for sure

12:34:26.420 --> 12:34:30.020
Gambits continue to flood in really just coming in 30 seconds

12:34:33.700 --> 12:34:35.860
What can big do guys what can big do for me?

12:34:36.740 --> 12:34:40.300
Pigs that pick and resign and go win the next the next few games

12:34:40.300 --> 12:34:43.660
That's what they can do in my opinion. I think this games. There's no playing it. It's unplayable

12:34:43.660 --> 12:34:46.220
Okay, it's not a windmill coming up

12:34:47.980 --> 12:34:49.980
Settlement yeah

12:34:56.420 --> 12:34:59.780
I think it's imp which is commendable that even got there by the way, but

12:35:00.860 --> 12:35:03.500
You know his whole base is broken. He's got 69 bills

12:35:04.460 --> 12:35:06.460
78 pop

12:35:06.460 --> 12:35:10.780
Champions they're kind of doing work to be honest. They're actually over performing what we can expect from them

12:35:11.100 --> 12:35:18.280
The castle of rugby is not hitting anything. I really like their attack in a major looks like they're spanking their opponents

12:35:18.540 --> 12:35:20.540
Look at how they swing

12:35:21.340 --> 12:35:23.340
They like bend their legs a little bit

12:35:23.340 --> 12:35:46.420
I think it's good to make your opponent work for these wins if you let your opponent win

12:35:46.420 --> 12:35:49.820
too easily they're gonna get too much confidence I feel like make them work for it maybe grab

12:35:49.820 --> 12:35:55.380
Oh shit, thank god I won and then he you know, he doesn't feel like he's that much better and

12:35:55.660 --> 12:35:58.940
Going to the next game. He's got some doubts maybe before running into the eco

12:35:59.140 --> 12:36:01.340
So I feel like making a point of work for it's kind of good

12:36:01.340 --> 12:36:02.860
It's just for my mental aspect

12:36:02.860 --> 12:36:05.260
I'm not saying a little too close cast is about to finish though

12:36:05.260 --> 12:36:09.220
So you can always garrison if you want to losing these monks. Yep shouldn't happen

12:36:09.220 --> 12:36:13.140
At least Karambit is in and pigs days are numbered ladies and gentlemen

12:36:13.140 --> 12:36:16.240
We're gonna have the one-on-one or a hands a dream final so far

12:36:16.240 --> 12:36:26.240
would it be BM if suddenly now pig just does everything he can to fatigue grubby

12:36:26.240 --> 12:36:30.880
and start sending villages to corners and start building and just spending time

12:36:30.880 --> 12:36:36.120
wasting his time and energy it would be very BM yeah keep him keep him locked

12:36:36.120 --> 12:36:41.280
in this game so it's a judgment call if you still have army and you still have

12:36:41.280 --> 12:36:44.480
a chance to win technically then playing on is completely fine so right now it's

12:36:44.480 --> 12:36:48.200
completely fine but like in 10 minutes if pig is running villagers around the

12:36:48.200 --> 12:36:51.200
map that's gonna actually get you disqualified from tournaments it is

12:36:51.200 --> 12:36:56.600
actually a rule that prevents that it's the sportsmanship rule yeah we don't

12:36:56.600 --> 12:37:02.880
have it no we're not following that handball technically anything goes

12:37:02.880 --> 12:37:07.200
people might hate him it might be kind of controversial but like judging from

12:37:07.200 --> 12:37:13.240
how pig is it's called pig maybe it starts to get dirty

12:37:13.240 --> 12:37:15.240
You have to roll in the mud?

12:37:15.520 --> 12:37:16.360
Maybe.

12:37:16.360 --> 12:37:19.520
You have to roll in the mud for the bacon, you know? It's all about the bacon.

12:37:20.840 --> 12:37:24.800
And so far it's all grubby, excuse me, another slip of the tongue there.

12:37:25.000 --> 12:37:27.840
It's all grubby so far in this arena match.

12:37:28.960 --> 12:37:30.960
All the buildings going down and

12:37:30.960 --> 12:37:33.360
Karambit's now with the final attack of the coming through.

12:37:33.360 --> 12:37:40.640
Tiggs trying his best, again great resilience, but now two traps, two castles is locked into his base and grubby faction is

12:37:40.640 --> 12:37:45.440
Securing the Golden Stone, but here we go. GG well played, Pig has tried his best, but ladies and gentlemen

12:37:45.440 --> 12:37:51.200
We have an equalized game, an equalized grand finals, Grubby 1-1 on the score. Captain Lance, what do you make of this?

12:37:52.040 --> 12:37:54.040
That was

12:37:54.400 --> 12:37:59.200
Honestly a really good hold on his part. Yeah getting the monks out, getting each workshop out and actually

12:37:59.680 --> 12:38:07.000
you know, Garrison and the monks in and out, keeping them out of death and then protecting his TC, killing the Rams, prioritizing getting those out and

12:38:07.000 --> 12:38:09.380
and excellent defense.

12:38:09.380 --> 12:38:11.520
Honestly, he did better than I did when I defended it.

12:38:11.520 --> 12:38:14.040
My defense was a lot more scuffed, I feel like.

12:38:14.040 --> 12:38:14.880
You have it.

12:38:14.880 --> 12:38:16.480
Both of you ended up winning the Moisica strategies,

12:38:16.480 --> 12:38:17.880
O2 per pig.

12:38:17.880 --> 12:38:19.320
If he ends up losing the grand final,

12:38:19.320 --> 12:38:20.600
you have to think back to like,

12:38:20.600 --> 12:38:22.360
maybe not using the strategy,

12:38:22.360 --> 12:38:24.200
maybe it has been a payoff.

12:38:24.200 --> 12:38:25.600
He shouldn't have any doubts right now though.

12:38:25.600 --> 12:38:27.520
It's all about him moving on to the next match.

12:38:27.520 --> 12:38:29.280
It's all good for pig.

12:38:29.280 --> 12:38:31.040
He's just to lock in and get to the next match.

12:38:31.040 --> 12:38:32.360
Ladies and gentlemen, I need a little break.

12:38:32.360 --> 12:38:33.600
So Yamato and Kampelans,

12:38:33.600 --> 12:38:35.080
please fill into the comments area

12:38:35.080 --> 12:38:36.240
before the next game starts.

12:38:36.240 --> 12:38:57.240
Yeah, we got you. We got you. You know, you know, from, from basically these variants of pushes, right, very similar to Red Force, like the difference between your research, like resource distribution, I'm still thinking back about that one monastery that he built, where you cannot sustain production at all.

12:38:57.240 --> 12:39:01.280
I think the prioritization in terms of how you spend your resources, you can't create

12:39:01.280 --> 12:39:07.840
villies until you hit an equilibrium where you keep producing what you've got to produce.

12:39:07.840 --> 12:39:14.600
I think at least from doing the samurai pushes, you can sustain on like 32 villages, no problem.

12:39:14.600 --> 12:39:21.080
And then you can slowly build villages and keep producing from Castle and the siege workshop.

12:39:21.080 --> 12:39:25.040
But here he didn't hit any equilibrium and he just had two little units when he finally

12:39:25.040 --> 12:39:31.680
pushed because rams are just so much better in numbers. This is the only skill that I have.

12:39:34.320 --> 12:39:37.840
I don't know if you knew about this way with the ram push, but I kind of was hoping he would just

12:39:37.840 --> 12:39:43.120
keep working his way, killing the wall Gurbie had of houses in the monastery until he had more like

12:39:43.680 --> 12:39:48.880
four or five rams to go for the T-Steel one because I feel like he was kind of trickle raminin.

12:39:48.880 --> 12:39:56.680
Yep, yep. And I have to say the monk defense just seems too perfect against the temple warriors

12:39:56.680 --> 12:40:06.040
if they have to like attack and stack to actually ramp their DPS. I think you gotta pop in and

12:40:06.040 --> 12:40:13.400
now and you don't get to stack your thing. It's kind of just counterdutive stuff.

12:40:13.400 --> 12:40:21.020
Did you feel like you were having many issues with Monks or not because the Samurai are

12:40:21.020 --> 12:40:22.020
a bit faster?

12:40:22.020 --> 12:40:28.000
It's annoying against the Civs that can garrison the Monks.

12:40:28.000 --> 12:40:35.560
Definitely annoying because you kind of lose DPS, but it did feel okay because you get

12:40:35.560 --> 12:40:41.640
the dash of the Samurai when they pop out, so you can always reach units and it didn't

12:40:41.640 --> 12:40:47.660
feel as punishing exiting them and like going in and out of the Rams and then I

12:40:47.660 --> 12:40:51.540
think I think the siege tower just adds so much mobility because it's such a

12:40:51.540 --> 12:40:57.260
faster building and then something that is very helpful I didn't know what the

12:40:57.260 --> 12:41:04.860
Red Force taught me this that build like units have height and yeah units like

12:41:04.860 --> 12:41:10.540
like units have height and they block arrows and you don't need to be inside

12:41:10.540 --> 12:41:16.660
things to block arrows. It was the same I needed to learn how to micro monks and

12:41:16.660 --> 12:41:21.780
what are those bosses that the pohemians make?

12:41:21.780 --> 12:41:24.780
Oh, the Saiwagans!

12:41:27.780 --> 12:41:35.780
You need to perfectly fit the monks in like the square pocket. It was very hard to micro.

12:41:35.780 --> 12:41:43.060
As you made the misstep one time it's instantly your your monk is shot in the eyeball. Yeah, that's tough

12:41:44.700 --> 12:41:46.700
Rough

12:41:46.700 --> 12:41:51.520
They're saying of the next match by the way game three is about to start between grubby and pig

12:41:52.300 --> 12:41:55.340
Of course grubby is never to believe in this grand final

12:41:56.180 --> 12:42:00.620
Pig is of course having the whole map next. He's got the choice between Arabia and arena

12:42:01.300 --> 12:42:03.300
Find out what his choice is soon

12:42:05.780 --> 12:42:07.780
Oh, I want to see more Arabia.

12:42:09.460 --> 12:42:13.160
It's like I think it's chosen for every single home map choice he's had.

12:42:13.360 --> 12:42:14.860
Yeah, tournament.

12:42:14.860 --> 12:42:16.360
I like that.

12:42:16.360 --> 12:42:18.560
Yeah, I think so as well.

12:42:18.560 --> 12:42:20.500
That's why I think Grubby's going to do double arena

12:42:20.500 --> 12:42:22.460
and he's going to save his brigandians for it.

12:42:22.460 --> 12:42:25.900
I think Grubby's kind of showed his hand a little bit for good or for bad.

12:42:26.040 --> 12:42:27.240
I don't know.

12:42:27.240 --> 12:42:29.240
They shown his hands.

12:42:30.900 --> 12:42:32.480
OK.

12:42:32.480 --> 12:42:36.160
I want to see a red force from from Robbie.

12:42:36.920 --> 12:42:38.840
You got to mix it up. It could happen.

12:42:38.840 --> 12:42:42.240
It's such a it's such a gut punch.

12:42:42.240 --> 12:42:43.160
Would you risk it, though?

12:42:43.160 --> 12:42:46.240
Like you have so you can just pick your trusty like Vietnamese.

12:42:46.240 --> 12:42:49.360
Oh, he already used them, but you can pick your trusty Ethiopians, your way,

12:42:49.360 --> 12:42:51.480
your Mongols.

12:42:51.480 --> 12:42:54.480
I hope it does a little patty rush.

12:42:54.480 --> 12:42:57.280
A little one moment.

12:42:57.280 --> 12:42:58.520
But like, isn't it?

12:42:58.520 --> 12:43:05.240
the two forward ranges are like 17 pop all the archers yeah it's not that good

12:43:05.240 --> 12:43:09.080
though in my opinion for this kind of a tournament because it's hard to end the

12:43:09.080 --> 12:43:12.640
game with it but it maybe he'll go for it we'll see it's gonna be a rabie by the

12:43:12.640 --> 12:43:15.040
way you matter sorry you're saying something I'll cut you off how rude of

12:43:15.040 --> 12:43:20.000
me no I just I think the moment you don't see like if you're if you're going

12:43:20.000 --> 12:43:27.680
into the game let's say you you go for you know you drop a little mug yards you

12:43:27.680 --> 12:43:31.920
know yeah and the moment you see the enemy has an infantry sieve all right

12:43:31.920 --> 12:43:36.120
you can pivot you can play a scaling game yeah your cab watchers are really

12:43:36.120 --> 12:43:41.760
good and if there is no infantry sieve I have not seen anyone do like a crazy

12:43:41.760 --> 12:43:46.880
archer harass push on anyone's gold lines or anything and I feel like that's the

12:43:46.880 --> 12:43:51.720
only thing that can break a red force effectively so you don't like land

12:43:51.720 --> 12:43:54.880
cleanly over obviously you have options you can like overload stone you can do

12:43:54.880 --> 12:44:01.200
black changes to figure out, no for sure. But honestly, I'm just yapping because I want to see a red force in the final.

12:44:01.200 --> 12:44:05.840
But actually what you're saying is really cool. Like, Pig has not been known to go for the infantry counter.

12:44:05.840 --> 12:44:11.400
If he's not going infantry, like you said, there's no crazy hyper aggressive strategy that can counter the red fostero.

12:44:11.400 --> 12:44:16.840
So Grubby's basically guaranteed to just be able to get up to the castle edge, throw down a castle and go for his unique unit.

12:44:16.840 --> 12:44:21.400
I think you have a lot of sense there. That makes a lot of sense. Will he agree with you or will he play it safe?

12:44:21.400 --> 12:44:25.440
From my perspective, Grober's the kind of guy who likes to play it safe, but I'm not sure.

12:44:25.440 --> 12:44:28.800
It's a possibility, what's with the Maggers, you don't know.

12:44:28.800 --> 12:44:31.000
He's got it in the back pocket.

12:44:31.000 --> 12:44:36.480
I can say, my biggest mistake against you, right, when we played the World Cup 3 Finals,

12:44:36.480 --> 12:44:38.720
was to not give it.

12:44:38.720 --> 12:44:43.080
I played what I was the most comfortable in, but you adapted better.

12:44:43.080 --> 12:44:48.240
And I think, like, when you're on the back foot and you just won and there's an expectation,

12:44:48.240 --> 12:44:55.120
spend your whole time leading into the game, mentally preparing and also strategically preparing,

12:44:55.120 --> 12:44:59.920
because I imagine like you coming into game three, I imagine the adjustments you were thinking about

12:44:59.920 --> 12:45:06.000
was just how you break the base. You probably like saw how bad like I put my towers up and you

12:45:06.000 --> 12:45:11.360
recognize you can attack the main because you made changes in that strength. By the way,

12:45:11.360 --> 12:45:15.760
you know, at the two zero, sorry real quick, at the two zero, I was debating playing anti meta

12:45:15.760 --> 12:45:19.760
with Beatles or I was debating playing the meta and I chose to play the meta because I felt like

12:45:19.760 --> 12:45:23.760
I almost broke you in game two. I made a lot of mistakes but it was close so if I did that again

12:45:23.760 --> 12:45:30.240
I can win and it worked but yeah I was making some adaptations for sure. Yeah yeah yeah because I

12:45:30.240 --> 12:45:37.120
noticed like in game three you attacked my main a lot heavier because I just didn't put enough towers

12:45:37.120 --> 12:45:43.840
there and you broke my main right I think it was like Echo Isles and that shifted the momentum a

12:45:43.840 --> 12:45:50.000
bit but I can imagine like there if I just pivoted the strat maybe yeah maybe it throws off the prep

12:45:50.000 --> 12:45:54.960
you know one one pile of rifle and I'm back to the I'm back to age of umpire's brother I was I was

12:45:54.960 --> 12:46:02.800
cooked one pile of rifle for me even poorly done back then I had no clue that was like my strongest

12:46:02.800 --> 12:46:08.240
strat and I didn't get to play the single time in the whole tournament I just fast exposed

12:46:08.240 --> 12:46:12.620
at the pivot at the mix it up but the point is you want to see you grow you

12:46:12.620 --> 12:46:18.440
kind of pivot a little mix it up you know it's like what he does is really

12:46:18.440 --> 12:46:21.900
good and maybe it's enough honestly because the defense the defensive play

12:46:21.900 --> 12:46:26.060
into boom into into tactical play as long as he finds like the right unit

12:46:26.060 --> 12:46:31.060
composition I expect him to win because he definitely didn't find it against

12:46:31.060 --> 12:46:37.900
the Sicilians but I think it's such a gut punch because it's a B05 you know

12:46:37.900 --> 12:46:42.500
I do think throwing a gut punch and just like, you know, it's just really like a

12:46:42.780 --> 12:46:44.620
Boom, just a leg kick, you know

12:46:44.620 --> 12:46:50.760
If you're gonna go for something like that you want to do that one one usually because if it fails you still a chance

12:46:51.420 --> 12:46:54.000
But if you do that to one you're gonna be in the situation

12:46:54.000 --> 12:46:58.860
You should be nervous AF or like at one two you're gonna be like very nervous of oh my god

12:46:58.860 --> 12:47:01.000
Like maybe maybe I shouldn't do this

12:47:01.140 --> 12:47:02.860
You're gonna be kind of playing

12:47:02.860 --> 12:47:07.460
Maybe a bit shaky maybe poorly but at one one you're gonna have that buffer zone where if you lose it's still fine

12:47:07.900 --> 12:47:14.340
Also 50 gifted again on YouTube from Vox studio Vox you have gifted so many memberships bro. You're freaking legend

It might be Red Foss or it might be a standard play. I don't know. I don't know talk to me talk to me about these sims

12:47:43.840 --> 12:47:48.460
I don't know nothing about these things. I know our Vietnamese. Yeah, I've got the paper money all that jazz

12:47:48.460 --> 12:47:54.420
All right, how about the Koreans? We've seen the Vietnamese captain Lance you you employed the Koreans early today

12:47:54.420 --> 12:47:56.700
Talk to us about the Koreans while I fix these 50s cameras

12:48:00.740 --> 12:48:05.700
Captain Oh captain don't leave me alone here. I don't know not nothing about Koreans besides that they dominate League of Legends

12:48:05.980 --> 12:48:13.620
excellent analysis from Captain Lance we'd love to hear it sorry it's alright I was I was deafened I actually think I'm like good

12:48:13.620 --> 12:48:17.620
I'm really really tired no worries out last drop

12:48:17.620 --> 12:48:22.940
good brother guys that's okay bro well played GD today Katlast drops out of the

right take care brother take care of the heavens in the chat no worries I'll take it from here guys

12:48:30.620 --> 12:48:35.620
Ah, Yamada, why don't you go ahead and talk about whatever you feel like talking about while I fix the cameras and I'll try to do that too.

12:48:35.620 --> 12:48:36.620
Alright, we'll do, alright.

12:48:36.620 --> 12:48:39.620
Just kidding, the cameras are great, the cameras are great, the cameras are great, the cameras are great.

12:48:39.620 --> 12:48:40.620
Okay, go ahead sir.

12:48:40.620 --> 12:48:45.620
Okay, I pulled up the wiki, pulled up the wiki, I'm just reading some Korean, Korean booths.

12:48:45.620 --> 12:48:50.620
Well, they have a lot of things concentrated in their ships, bro. There's no water.

12:48:50.620 --> 12:48:52.620
There is no water.

12:48:52.620 --> 12:48:56.620
Oh, the rocket carts. Koreans have the rocket carts.

12:48:56.620 --> 12:48:58.620
Yeah, we don't know about the rocket carts.

12:49:00.620 --> 12:49:03.820
that they don't belong in Age of Empires though, like what are we talking about?

12:49:04.060 --> 12:49:06.060
facts, what are we talking about?

12:49:06.220 --> 12:49:08.220
uh, bro, like

12:49:08.780 --> 12:49:09.580
come on now

12:49:09.580 --> 12:49:14.220
Well, the thing is what the Koreans here is that like their main bonus is that they get most of their uh soldiers

12:49:14.220 --> 12:49:21.980
So their uh, rain soldiers infantry soldiers are 50% discounted in terms of wood. So it's like a spamming. So it's like a skirmish or spam

12:49:22.060 --> 12:49:25.980
So they have a lot of decent options, but it's mostly about spamming units

12:49:25.980 --> 12:49:30.620
But they also have a couple really strong units. They have the rocket car, very strong siege unit.

12:49:30.620 --> 12:49:33.700
We talked about it. It's like a manganelle, but maybe a little stronger depending on who you ask.

12:49:34.300 --> 12:49:37.780
You have the war wagon, the unique unit, which could be a really good

12:49:37.900 --> 12:49:41.140
phosphorush by the way, which is why I'm quite excited about the Koreans.

12:49:41.140 --> 12:49:46.540
If you want to see the phosphorush, it actually could happen with the Koreans and Grubby's map is so good.

12:49:47.060 --> 12:49:53.260
Easy walls, stolen, a little suspicious, but you could wall in front of it. So we'll see if he goes for it. Oh my god!

12:49:53.260 --> 12:49:58.380
Oh my god, he's ran through the town center. Four goats have died. We're gonna get an instant replay here

12:49:58.380 --> 12:50:03.020
Oh my god, I think look what happened. He goes in he steals the goats. He's gonna walk up. No way

12:50:03.700 --> 12:50:05.220
No way

12:50:05.220 --> 12:50:09.340
Pig garrisons to try to kill the scouts all the sheep are dead all the sheep are dead

12:50:09.340 --> 12:50:12.420
He was a nice little lame there. That's so good for him

12:50:13.420 --> 12:50:17.660
That's real bro now. I understand where my coffee bars went the other day

12:50:17.660 --> 12:50:25.820
that's real right then learn this in the William Wallace campaign that's crazy

12:50:25.820 --> 12:50:34.060
oh you know who invented this? Who did? Red Fawc? No bro it is more than Red Fawc in the game by the way

12:50:34.060 --> 12:50:39.020
I invented it I'm not proud of it because it's kind of degenerate I kind of invented it at least I

12:50:39.020 --> 12:50:44.620
popularized it I didn't invent it but I gotta say though it was kind of weird that the goats have such

12:50:44.620 --> 12:50:52.340
height like why did they tank the arrows bro yeah like the like the Hagocha stick

12:50:52.340 --> 12:50:58.480
bro they're pretty good what's with the height I had the whole height

12:50:58.480 --> 12:51:03.460
conversation our goats goats are tall bro like for some reason those arrows if

12:51:03.460 --> 12:51:07.620
you check the instant replay bro those arrows were going wide bro like yeah

12:51:07.620 --> 12:51:11.620
That's kind of true. Lot of Rot-Maxing games.

12:51:11.620 --> 12:51:14.620
He's trying to harvest them. He realizes he can.

12:51:14.620 --> 12:51:20.620
Yeah. Whatever he can from them, obviously they're all rotting away, so this is a pretty bad situation.

12:51:20.620 --> 12:51:23.620
He's making the best out of it, but Grubby's been playing super aggressive here.

12:51:23.620 --> 12:51:29.620
He's going to find a villager downhill, but this villager has Loom, so I think Pig should be fine.

12:51:29.620 --> 12:51:34.620
Behind this Grubby, is he going for the Foss rush? I'm not sure. He's got a lot of food.

12:51:34.620 --> 12:51:40.620
I don't think so, it's not on Barry's too much, he's getting Loom, it's gonna be a standard play from the Koreans for Grubby, standard Korean gameplay here.

12:51:41.620 --> 12:51:44.620
Okay, did he already kill both Bors?

12:51:44.620 --> 12:51:49.620
Yeah, he's already in both Bors, he just hasn't taken his chickens.

12:51:49.620 --> 12:51:57.620
Is this common to double dip in the Goat Department and just saturate too, rather than picking up berries or starting to hunt the bunnies on the outside?

12:51:57.620 --> 12:52:00.620
Cause they stay friends, you know, like, in the rush?

12:52:00.620 --> 12:52:02.740
Yeah, I think it's okay, but you don't want to overdo that.

12:52:02.740 --> 12:52:05.780
If you start like double eating and rot-maxing, as we've been calling it,

12:52:06.060 --> 12:52:09.580
you're gonna come run into a situation where you just run out of goats and then it's a disaster.

12:52:09.580 --> 12:52:11.900
So, I think, Robbie,

12:52:12.980 --> 12:52:15.940
doing okay so far, but giving up the chickens is a conscious choice.

12:52:15.940 --> 12:52:16.740
It's only six of them.

12:52:16.740 --> 12:52:19.340
I mean, I see chickens, but they're actually bunnies, they're hairs, so...

12:52:19.820 --> 12:52:20.700
Give up the rabbits,

12:52:21.220 --> 12:52:24.620
and just gonna go for a barracks in the front, and probably just a range.

12:52:24.620 --> 12:52:25.980
Just open up some archers, maybe.

12:52:26.300 --> 12:52:28.540
We might see men arms, I'm not sure, maybe,

12:52:28.540 --> 12:52:34.780
but uh it's not really the korean strength the men arms okay you did tell me they're cheaper right

12:52:34.780 --> 12:52:39.500
in the in the in the lumber department in the lumber department in the archers and the infantry yeah

12:52:39.500 --> 12:52:44.540
okay gold chopping is starting very late because you can't afford you can't even afford the mining

12:52:44.540 --> 12:52:53.020
camp yeah so you have the hairs now and no men arms so no no militia coming out right now so it

12:52:53.020 --> 12:52:56.860
looks like it might just be like rain soldiers from him which is it's a pretty good situation for the

12:52:56.860 --> 12:53:04.900
the Koreans will you block the wall kid if he wants to will he block the wall

12:53:04.900 --> 12:53:09.140
by the way very late uptime for for pigs like you can try to block the wall but

12:53:09.140 --> 12:53:12.660
the scout is only a dark it's got so that grubby just gets it down it should

12:53:12.660 --> 12:53:17.140
be completely fine for him okay

12:53:17.140 --> 12:53:23.180
grubby gets few delays four more workers before the up yep which means late

12:53:23.180 --> 12:53:28.700
feudal age, but it also means he has more resources collected by the time he gets to the feudal age so

12:53:29.260 --> 12:53:30.860
it could be kind of beneficial for him as well.

12:53:33.660 --> 12:53:37.260
When do you go for the lure the bunny to your TC strat?

12:53:38.060 --> 12:53:42.060
You can do it, you can do any game, but if you do that on Arabia and your opponent comes to the scout

12:53:42.060 --> 12:53:47.740
and he breaks one of the palisade walls it breaks the the whole funnel so it's only really good on arena I would say.

12:53:49.020 --> 12:53:52.460
Okay, but it is possible on any map in theory.

12:53:53.180 --> 12:53:59.500
Nice walls from Pig, by the way. Just goes through some nice quick walls, walls in the front, he's taking the bunnies on the left side.

12:54:00.180 --> 12:54:02.180
He's got a nice barracks come up.

12:54:02.680 --> 12:54:07.180
And looks like Grubby's gonna wall up and play some archers. So pretty solid Grubby gameplay here.

12:54:07.180 --> 12:54:09.680
He likes to play some archers, likes to play ranged units for the most part.

12:54:09.680 --> 12:54:13.680
It's not a tried and tested Ethiopans, but the cranes are quite solid as well.

12:54:15.680 --> 12:54:16.180
Okay.

12:54:18.180 --> 12:54:22.680
Grubby only has one on gold. Is that common if you do this? Alright, he's switching over. Three on gold now.

12:54:23.180 --> 12:54:25.180
Yeah

12:54:27.220 --> 12:54:31.020
Okay, they just think making sure to maintain production here for watches. Yeah

12:54:35.820 --> 12:54:39.060
The thermal classic yeah almost you thermal the villager

12:54:39.060 --> 12:54:41.900
But I would like to see like a house here just fully wall that that front

12:54:42.140 --> 12:54:46.180
You can also wall the top like you can just fully wall your map and just be so safe for grubby

12:54:46.180 --> 12:54:50.820
I'm like the one thing is not really doing ever is just fully walling first and then attacking afterwards of everything

12:54:50.820 --> 12:54:54.140
It's a very good strategy, but Grubby seems to never go for that approach

12:54:55.140 --> 12:54:57.620
Archer coming across the field, but he's gonna get caught out by the scout

12:54:58.340 --> 12:55:02.700
Grubby has to keep this archer near the scouting. This is so perfectly picked. Just kind of passes by it

12:55:04.620 --> 12:55:07.260
Archer's following across the map here. This is some early pressure

12:55:07.260 --> 12:55:12.020
Dude, Pig does not even have a range. Pig is kind of flustered here. Pig is not in a good position. Oh

12:55:13.300 --> 12:55:15.300
Damn, okay

12:55:15.300 --> 12:55:23.540
I've got to do some looping now grubby find the pockets look at that lumber lumber line

12:55:23.540 --> 12:55:27.040
He needs to start building. He needs to make a cut ASAP

12:55:27.540 --> 12:55:30.200
Yeah, how are you very full? Oh?

12:55:33.460 --> 12:55:35.460
Pretty bad passing there

12:55:35.780 --> 12:55:42.060
These units have armor by the way arches with free armor for the Koreans grubby could doctor this villager first villager kill of the game

12:55:42.060 --> 12:55:47.100
goes in favor of grubby the scout has to go back now pig does not have a range he

12:55:47.100 --> 12:55:50.460
is just completely caught out here he hasn't had time he's making the cuts

12:55:50.460 --> 12:55:53.900
now Yamato he's making some walls towel will help protect the school what's

12:55:53.900 --> 12:55:57.660
your time yeah I guess the range I like the default back with the bills even

12:55:57.660 --> 12:56:01.140
though you lost one I like the read there recognizing that the enemy doesn't

12:56:01.140 --> 12:56:07.220
have a big enough army to reach critical mass yeah well guys

12:56:07.220 --> 12:56:08.820
Archers will come.

12:56:08.820 --> 12:56:10.660
Meet his meat, why can't you harvest the horse?

12:56:10.660 --> 12:56:15.940
Maybe in the next edition, maybe in the next sieve we'll be able to harvest any of your

12:56:15.940 --> 12:56:16.940
horses.

12:56:16.940 --> 12:56:22.340
We've got some cannibals, harvest the pikemen.

12:56:22.340 --> 12:56:24.660
Meet his meat, harrow rules.

12:56:24.660 --> 12:56:30.140
A couple of archers running around here, the spear is actually crucial in defending those

12:56:30.140 --> 12:56:31.140
guys.

12:56:31.140 --> 12:56:33.180
Oh my god, good play from Grubby!

12:56:33.180 --> 12:56:38.760
He sent a kite and teased the two archers alive and Pig is being kind of forced in a

12:56:38.760 --> 12:56:39.760
weird area here.

12:56:39.760 --> 12:56:40.760
This is terrible for him.

12:56:40.760 --> 12:56:42.880
He's going to lose another villager most likely.

12:56:42.880 --> 12:56:43.880
Very low in the lilly.

12:56:43.880 --> 12:56:44.880
He could.

12:56:44.880 --> 12:56:45.880
She could surround.

12:56:45.880 --> 12:56:46.880
Yeah, she could surround.

12:56:46.880 --> 12:56:47.880
Hit him twice.

12:56:47.880 --> 12:56:52.600
If she's going to die anyway, you might as well kill him, but Pig didn't think about

12:56:52.600 --> 12:56:55.120
that and Pig is kind of getting pressured really hard.

12:56:55.120 --> 12:56:59.840
They're at the range now with the skirmishers, but overall I feel like Grubby, oh my god,

12:56:59.840 --> 12:57:00.840
already up the castle.

12:57:00.840 --> 12:57:02.200
It's really fast castle.

12:57:02.200 --> 12:57:03.920
He sold the stone!

12:57:03.920 --> 12:57:05.600
What is this? I've never seen this from Grubby before.

12:57:05.600 --> 12:57:06.760
He sells the stone!

12:57:06.760 --> 12:57:09.280
This is prestige and gameplay from Grubby.

12:57:09.280 --> 12:57:10.560
Wow, very fast uptime.

12:57:10.560 --> 12:57:12.120
This must be the Orleans, right?

12:57:12.120 --> 12:57:14.720
And just playing off of cross-flow upgrades?

12:57:14.720 --> 12:57:15.560
I think so.

12:57:15.560 --> 12:57:17.880
Are we gonna see another archer range?

12:57:17.880 --> 12:57:18.720
Second range?

12:57:19.720 --> 12:57:20.680
No, it's a blacksmith.

12:57:20.680 --> 12:57:22.360
Blacksmith is great.

12:57:22.360 --> 12:57:24.480
Blacksmith for fletching.

12:57:24.480 --> 12:57:26.320
Would you like to see a forward seed, Shimado,

12:57:26.320 --> 12:57:27.160
from your perspective?

12:57:27.160 --> 12:57:29.440
Your forward seed would be nice.

12:57:29.440 --> 12:57:31.400
I think that I would, honestly,

12:57:31.400 --> 12:57:42.680
Considering you already get the upgrade, and it's cheaper in the armor department, I'll move a couple of more workers from wood to gold, and I'll just slam another proxy little archery range.

12:57:42.680 --> 12:57:50.480
I would just commit fully. Especially with how this wood line is looking, the berry line, and the design of the base, I think the archer is going to win the game.

12:57:50.480 --> 12:57:57.880
Yeah, honestly, you have a good point here. Fletcher coming in, a lot of harass, but Pig with some active defense here, looping around with the skirmishers.

12:57:57.880 --> 12:58:04.180
This could be about the Archers, Grubby, great job from Grubby, just runs out at the perfect time, stays out of the Skirmish range.

12:58:05.080 --> 12:58:06.880
Latching is in now as well.

12:58:07.880 --> 12:58:09.380
Oh no, the Jaguar.

12:58:09.880 --> 12:58:18.580
Wait, wait, Grubby is not going to go Archers actually, he's going to go for armor on infantry, he's going to go Fire Lancers to counter the Skirmishers.

12:58:18.680 --> 12:58:22.380
He has baited Pig into going Skirmish, that's kind of smart.

12:58:23.080 --> 12:58:27.380
He went three Archers, Pig is going to make a lot of Skirmishers now, he's going to Sea Castleage.

12:58:27.380 --> 12:58:31.220
Grubby has smartly hid the archers to not show how many he has.

12:58:31.220 --> 12:58:34.740
If he just shows the three again with no upgrades, Pig is like, oh, he's not making them.

12:58:34.740 --> 12:58:38.500
But if he hides now, Pig is like, oh my god, I need to make more skirmishers.

12:58:38.500 --> 12:58:42.260
I guarantee you'll make another skirm here, unless you'll save the castle.

12:58:42.260 --> 12:58:43.220
He's got two options.

12:58:44.180 --> 12:58:46.420
Grubby shows the archers though, I really wouldn't do that.

12:58:47.460 --> 12:58:51.220
Now Grubby kind of shows his hand, but it's going to be a forward teach workshop,

12:58:51.220 --> 12:58:52.500
Fire Lancer Siege.

12:58:52.500 --> 12:58:53.140
Okay.

12:58:53.140 --> 12:58:54.340
Very strong combo here.

12:58:54.340 --> 12:58:59.740
Well, you already have access to the fire lance, it's just like that, that's crazy.

12:58:59.740 --> 12:59:00.740
Yep.

12:59:00.740 --> 12:59:01.740
Castle Age only requirements.

12:59:01.740 --> 12:59:06.140
A sense of blacksmith here, Pig is looking to try to get to the next age, he has cut

12:59:06.140 --> 12:59:08.460
the skirmish of production as she should, well played to him there.

12:59:08.460 --> 12:59:12.420
I thought there could be more at stake or more at play with the mind games, but looks

12:59:12.420 --> 12:59:17.100
like Pig is kind of razor focused on the Castle Age.

12:59:17.100 --> 12:59:20.500
But it's just like in kind of scary a model, it's plus two armor, fire lance is very good,

12:59:20.500 --> 12:59:22.620
have you seen the fire lance, have you seen them earlier?

12:59:22.620 --> 12:59:24.220
The rams can be kind of nice.

12:59:24.220 --> 12:59:25.220
They start looping.

12:59:25.220 --> 12:59:26.220
Rocket carts are coming out.

12:59:26.220 --> 12:59:27.220
Not rams.

12:59:27.220 --> 12:59:33.300
What is their... are the fire lances similar to pikemen?

12:59:33.300 --> 12:59:36.780
They're basically just improved pikemen.

12:59:36.780 --> 12:59:37.780
So they're stronger?

12:59:37.780 --> 12:59:38.780
Or what is their damage type?

12:59:38.780 --> 12:59:41.540
They're way stronger than pikemen, but they operate in a similar way.

12:59:41.540 --> 12:59:44.820
So they're kind of in between a pikeman and a swordsman.

12:59:44.820 --> 12:59:48.340
They're a pretty good all-around unit, but they have a specialty against cavalry.

12:59:48.340 --> 12:59:52.460
And they also shoot a gunshot every like minute or so, so they can all have a special gunshot

12:59:52.460 --> 12:59:57.100
ability every minute. It's quite a strong unit. We have a second Monastery for Grubby. I don't know

12:59:57.100 --> 13:00:00.860
why we're not even making Monk from the first one, but okay. Thank you Monastery.

13:00:03.820 --> 13:00:06.220
Right, I like that the rocket cut.

13:00:08.380 --> 13:00:13.820
I would attack the woodline right away. Yep. I guess this is good entry point too, I know.

13:00:14.860 --> 13:00:19.740
Just go into the Lancers, go straight into the woodline. Grubby, great job with the archers.

13:00:19.740 --> 13:00:21.740
This continues to harass and pull back.

13:00:21.740 --> 13:00:24.340
He's so annoying with those two archers behind your wood line.

13:00:24.340 --> 13:00:25.940
Pig is not even flicked up to the next age,

13:00:25.940 --> 13:00:28.540
and there's guns and rocketcarts coming into base.

13:00:28.540 --> 13:00:30.540
This is terrible for the futile-aged pig.

13:00:33.540 --> 13:00:34.380
Oh my God.

13:00:34.380 --> 13:00:37.460
I have to say this, this rocketcard is very deep though.

13:00:37.460 --> 13:00:38.500
It is deep.

13:00:38.500 --> 13:00:39.700
Nothing can kill it though right now.

13:00:39.700 --> 13:00:41.900
Like maybe some villagers actually, hold on.

13:00:43.060 --> 13:00:45.380
Ooh, good attack round from Grubby.

13:00:45.380 --> 13:00:46.660
Firelands is coming back in.

13:00:46.660 --> 13:00:48.700
Damage is crazy as well on the bottom.

13:00:48.700 --> 13:00:51.500
The violence is kind of destroying everything right now, there's no counter, the villager

13:00:51.500 --> 13:00:55.420
comes with their pair, the villager comes with their pair, oh my god, he's gonna keep

13:00:55.420 --> 13:00:59.020
it alive, takes a huge shot, kills another villager, and grubby is cooking.

13:00:59.020 --> 13:01:03.740
Now he's a super prepared, but that villager isn't even close, but that's just the longest

13:01:03.740 --> 13:01:06.460
hammer on earth, at a distance, jesus.

13:01:06.460 --> 13:01:10.700
This villager is there from grubby, that's pretty sick.

13:01:10.700 --> 13:01:15.140
Now he's just kind of cooking, there's one rocket car, six kills so far, the firelensers,

13:01:15.140 --> 13:01:21.000
11 kills between the four of them. This is such a good play from Grubby. I absolutely love this

13:01:23.060 --> 13:01:26.000
This is just look how far away the castle ages

13:01:26.900 --> 13:01:31.780
Yeah, one minute 30. Dude, Pegas completely lost. I'm so happy he didn't go for my plan with the devil

13:01:32.340 --> 13:01:37.380
Doubling down the crossbows. I would have lost on the spot to all the skirmishes. Yep

13:01:37.580 --> 13:01:44.100
What a pivot Grubby pivoted to those fire Lancers the two rocket cars as well was a fantastic addition

13:01:44.100 --> 13:01:48.900
He also has the monks behind me. No, he's made two modicaries not a single monk. He's just wasted the one

13:01:51.580 --> 13:01:57.020
He's thanks for score, baby, I like the vision you're not only keeping up here

13:01:57.860 --> 13:02:02.660
Well, it's just coming in but dude pigs just taking so much damage. I don't see a way back for him right now

13:02:03.500 --> 13:02:05.900
And we'll kill the rocket car. It's a small one for pig

13:02:06.460 --> 13:02:10.180
Well, he will kill the one bottom hold on maybe maybe with that he can hold a bit

13:02:10.180 --> 13:02:13.300
But 26 villagers dude. He's lost half of his economy

13:02:13.620 --> 13:02:20.280
He's got half the economy towards grubby right now 17 villagers have been killed grub. He's in such a good and commanding position

13:02:20.280 --> 13:02:25.680
You could add in some economy behind us or you could just continue to push got a couple options here

13:02:26.780 --> 13:02:29.820
Pig hits castlet. Can he stabilize at all or is it just too late?

13:02:29.820 --> 13:02:33.940
They make his own fire Lancers. Okay, Vietnamese fire Lancers are more expensive than the Koreans

13:02:33.940 --> 13:02:38.200
They have a regular price for them, but they have more HP so more hit points quite. Thank you

13:02:38.200 --> 13:02:41.200
Okay, cool, cool.

13:02:41.200 --> 13:02:45.880
I like these archers are just chilling in the woods, you know, they're just there, they're

13:02:45.880 --> 13:02:49.840
like what job is done, you know, we're enjoying retirement.

13:02:49.840 --> 13:02:53.440
Yeah, the other couple kills on them, it's done so much damage, there's a few archers,

13:02:53.440 --> 13:02:59.080
like unupgraded just random archers, Gambit's coming in extra armor for the fire lancers.

13:02:59.080 --> 13:03:06.680
I have to say, Grubby's loops in terms of like getting base information and finding

13:03:06.680 --> 13:03:11.200
all the villagers, he's done this better than anybody in the tournament.

13:03:11.200 --> 13:03:13.320
Yeah, I agree.

13:03:13.320 --> 13:03:21.240
Just finding that wood line and just spreading his units around, overloading the enemy really.

13:03:21.240 --> 13:03:22.440
Finally some monks coming out.

13:03:22.440 --> 13:03:25.640
One monastery will be in charge of picking up the relics and one monastery in charge

13:03:25.640 --> 13:03:26.640
of healing.

13:03:26.640 --> 13:03:30.400
Killing up your army and then fighting with it again and again is a really good strategy.

13:03:30.400 --> 13:03:33.080
Especially against a guy that's really hurt bad like Pig.

13:03:33.080 --> 13:03:34.240
A couple of rocket cars coming out.

13:03:34.240 --> 13:03:36.240
You're trying to take out the front buildings here nice and easy

13:03:37.120 --> 13:03:41.000
Violences could be for pig you could look for some kind of counterattack. It's not a bad idea

13:03:41.440 --> 13:03:45.080
Grubby's kind of walled me down a hole in the front. I mean, they're slow

13:03:45.080 --> 13:03:50.000
But they'll get there read it perfectly don't monks just counter these violences so hard. Can he be reached?

13:03:50.520 --> 13:03:54.960
Yeah, I mean violence is okay versus monks, but they do die to them as well

13:03:55.120 --> 13:03:58.200
but Grubby's locked in on that relic so he's not gonna convert with that monk, but

13:03:58.720 --> 13:04:00.320
He's breaking down

13:04:00.320 --> 13:04:02.680
this house and bear a combo

13:04:02.680 --> 13:04:09.060
You can get there a pair of me for the release. Yeah, he's gonna go for now, but as he walks towards it goes back

13:04:09.060 --> 13:04:11.060
It's good plan both sides

13:04:12.460 --> 13:04:20.260
Holy grubby is good. Oh careful big counterattack big counterattack. That's decent. It's giving us something to get excited about at least

13:04:21.740 --> 13:04:26.420
You call that wall over here. Yep at a wall little pocket

13:04:26.420 --> 13:04:34.200
But yeah, I think I just realized is all that sacrifice to do liberal. Yeah. Oh

13:04:36.140 --> 13:04:40.140
Couple finances going in we have the rocket cards couple monks as well could get some conversions

13:04:40.340 --> 13:04:45.040
Monk will die finances are waiting in the meantime. Remember these are cheap Korean fire lancers

13:04:45.040 --> 13:04:48.580
So grab is in a great position. I honestly just don't see a way back for pig

13:04:48.700 --> 13:04:52.540
He's trying his best gotta give him credit for that, but it's looking grim right now. Oh

13:04:53.780 --> 13:04:55.780
It's so tough

13:04:56.420 --> 13:04:59.220
The RTS multitasking is kicking in.

13:04:59.220 --> 13:05:02.520
Yeah, like these these level situations are so Warcraft 3 coded

13:05:03.260 --> 13:05:08.740
And the situation we saw on Registrar Fortress was so Starcraft coded.

13:05:08.740 --> 13:05:09.740
Yeah

13:05:09.740 --> 13:05:14.460
A lot of army versus like little units good for Warcraft, a lot of units good for Starcraft

13:05:15.340 --> 13:05:17.340
more or less, you know and

13:05:17.460 --> 13:05:19.100
Siege Workshop here

13:05:19.100 --> 13:05:21.100
Kind of idle. I would like to see more

13:05:21.100 --> 13:05:26.900
I feel like just walking us are so good here. He got all the buildings. You can hit the fire lances. You can hit the villagers

13:05:28.620 --> 13:05:31.060
Definitely got the gopher. Yeah, and the wood

13:05:33.700 --> 13:05:39.660
We also has relics behind this he's got 5,000 more reaches collected any any hope for pig here

13:05:40.700 --> 13:05:41.740
Not at all

13:05:41.740 --> 13:05:47.180
I can only the only hope is if Grubby doesn't reorient his workers because he sent them all to wood because of the harass

13:05:47.180 --> 13:05:49.780
He just needs to put them back on gold. Yeah, true

13:05:49.780 --> 13:05:57.620
Everything is chopping wood and when he does that he will realize any moment now and I think it's gonna be in the clear

13:05:57.620 --> 13:05:59.620
The production will resume

13:06:00.020 --> 13:06:05.100
Origin coming in rock card is working away the market pick a shot a hole this tower looks good

13:06:05.100 --> 13:06:10.140
But rock cards, you know gonna move in onto that tower. Fire lances will kill the market

13:06:10.140 --> 13:06:15.460
I feel like grubby has just played this one so perfectly good call in the fire lances transition

13:06:15.460 --> 13:06:20.660
What's funny is that I was talking about the fire lancer being broken in all coaching sessions to everybody by the way

13:06:20.660 --> 13:06:24.520
Not just grubby. I'm not even meeting here to everybody. I was telling him sing sing. I said in the fire

13:06:26.180 --> 13:06:28.180
You matter you're especially

13:06:28.180 --> 13:06:32.080
Tell me you did tell me about the Turkish arena strat. Yeah the fast imp

13:06:33.180 --> 13:06:38.340
Yeah, which we haven't seen yet. Maybe we'll see in the finals, but no no fast but here

13:06:38.340 --> 13:06:43.820
We are seeing the fire Lancers. They're very strong and both players going for them both first kind of finally figuring out their power

13:06:45.460 --> 13:06:50.460
Market will go down, towers going to go down, Pig with one last desperate counter attack

13:06:50.460 --> 13:06:54.360
but Grubby already has a Town Center there, he's farming up, making sure his economy is

13:06:54.360 --> 13:06:56.360
solid behind this.

13:06:56.360 --> 13:07:00.980
This could be a nice counter attack, Pig is getting some value there, but no it's not

13:07:00.980 --> 13:07:01.980
enough.

13:07:01.980 --> 13:07:06.880
Pig calls the GG, Grubby goes up, 2-1, Grubby takes the lead for the first time in the Grand

13:07:06.880 --> 13:07:12.060
Finals and he's now one game away from winning the entire Kingsgala GG in the chat, Grubby

13:07:12.060 --> 13:07:17.420
has played a fantastic game and he's been the Vietnamese of pig which have been so reliable pig now

13:07:17.420 --> 13:07:22.620
has the chinese on arabia and like nothing else that he's really leaned on this is like his last

13:07:22.620 --> 13:07:29.660
really good sieve in my opinion the chinese coming up you know what's uh you know the stakes of

13:07:29.660 --> 13:07:37.020
this tournament is is far greater than than than just the the what what is on the surface you know

13:07:37.020 --> 13:07:43.660
in terms of what we've seen in terms of time investment and competing against one another

13:07:43.660 --> 13:07:48.460
and the price pool and the honor and the reputation. It goes beyond in the sense that

13:07:50.780 --> 13:07:55.260
when I played against you, right, it's like you and your prime, right? You and your prime,

13:07:55.260 --> 13:07:58.780
you're smurfing in age of empires. I'm past my prime in terms of play, you know?

13:07:58.780 --> 13:07:59.260
Fair enough, yeah.

13:07:59.260 --> 13:08:04.460
But what it meant for me in that moment is that there's many moments in your life

13:08:04.460 --> 13:08:15.180
Well, you think to yourself, if I wanted to, I could, you know, and being able to take the

13:08:15.180 --> 13:08:22.300
opportunity when you get challenged on that idea, if I wanted to, I could, and go all the way and

13:08:22.300 --> 13:08:29.820
win a damn tournament, this means more than anything. Yeah, yeah. Because if Grubby walks

13:08:29.820 --> 13:08:36.060
away from this tournament, you can always say, if I wanted to, I could. You want me to be the

13:08:36.060 --> 13:08:41.580
best Walker 3 player again? If I wanted to, I could. You want me to be the best at anything? If I

13:08:41.580 --> 13:08:46.780
wanted to, I could. And let me tell you, for anyone that has been competitive, even for you,

13:08:46.780 --> 13:08:52.620
Hera, there will come a time where maybe you're past your prime, you know, age of Empire tournaments,

13:08:52.620 --> 13:08:57.020
maybe in five, six, seven years, maybe something, you know, maybe it's going to be tough to win,

13:08:57.020 --> 13:09:03.420
Maybe some youngster is gonna start sprinting the game and gonna run the game maybe in that moment when you play less

13:09:03.420 --> 13:09:06.260
You know, maybe your family man. You have a couple of children

13:09:06.260 --> 13:09:09.860
You know, you you you know, you're teaching them the ropes are to play each of Empires

13:09:09.860 --> 13:09:13.420
You're teaching the heart to Red Force and all that jazz in that moment

13:09:13.420 --> 13:09:18.300
You're gonna be like yo if I wanted to I could I could smoke all these people and

13:09:18.860 --> 13:09:23.580
That ego that voice that competitive voice is always going to scream at you

13:09:23.580 --> 13:09:30.880
So all the OGs coming back together to compete in Age of Empires, it's all about leaning into that ego, that voice.

13:09:31.580 --> 13:09:37.180
And I can imagine for Grubby, you know, winning this tournament, everyone put pressure on the guy.

13:09:37.180 --> 13:09:39.580
You know, everyone assume he's gonna win.

13:09:39.580 --> 13:09:42.680
Bro, suddenly everyone's climbing Elo, left to right.

13:09:42.680 --> 13:09:44.680
We have people reaching 1800.

13:09:44.680 --> 13:09:47.380
Suddenly this Wagamama climbs 400.

13:09:47.380 --> 13:09:49.180
Suddenly we have an upset win.

13:09:49.280 --> 13:09:50.380
You know, it wasn't easy.

13:09:50.680 --> 13:09:51.780
It wasn't easy.

13:09:51.780 --> 13:09:58.300
not easy at all and now we're facing match point it is all about the glory of

13:09:58.300 --> 13:10:04.900
the tournament but it's also to satisfy that voice if I wanted to I could I'm not

13:10:04.900 --> 13:10:09.780
gonna lie that was actually really really well said like that that was a lot of

13:10:09.780 --> 13:10:13.300
real thoughts there probably rushing through where we's mind right now I

13:10:13.300 --> 13:10:17.060
think it would mean a lot for him to win and at the same time I feel like it

13:10:17.060 --> 13:10:20.660
would mean a lot for pick to win as well like being able to take a worker

13:10:20.660 --> 13:10:24.420
through World Champion, someone that was considered the favorite tournament beforehand, someone

13:10:24.420 --> 13:10:28.100
that got the highest elo, a pig for him to go undefeated would be insane.

13:10:28.100 --> 13:10:31.940
There's a huge storyline there for him as well, but I totally agree with you.

13:10:31.940 --> 13:10:37.780
The grubby just being able to do that like way past his prime, I think it shows how good he was

13:10:37.780 --> 13:10:42.420
at his prime. It would be a lot for him for sure, especially knowing the kind of person he is.

13:10:42.420 --> 13:10:46.180
He put in a lot of work for this event as well, so it really would mean a lot for him to win.

13:10:46.180 --> 13:10:48.180
What's that in my mind?

13:10:48.180 --> 13:10:57.740
I got to say as well from Pigside, he has the purest place to pull confidence from,

13:10:57.740 --> 13:11:05.940
which is of course the simple idea that he has won this match before.

13:11:05.940 --> 13:11:08.260
He has won this match before.

13:11:08.260 --> 13:11:12.820
There's no reason why things need to be so different.

13:11:12.820 --> 13:11:20.120
In the chess game, you know, of recognizing what has actually worked is like pulling.

13:11:20.120 --> 13:11:26.760
I think based off of that first game, pulling, of course, grubby into deep waters.

13:11:26.760 --> 13:11:30.640
It seems that grubby is the most uncomfortable when he's playing against something he hasn't

13:11:30.640 --> 13:11:31.640
seen before.

13:11:31.640 --> 13:11:36.280
Yes, I'm wondering if Pig has some strategies that we haven't seen because he didn't play

13:11:36.280 --> 13:11:37.280
the Sicilian before.

13:11:37.280 --> 13:11:38.280
Right.

13:11:38.280 --> 13:11:39.280
Yeah, it's the first time.

13:11:39.280 --> 13:11:40.280
The Sicilian game.

13:11:40.280 --> 13:11:41.280
First time.

13:11:41.280 --> 13:11:44.880
Maybe he has something cooking. Maybe he has something cooking.

13:11:44.880 --> 13:11:48.680
I think that's why you attack Grubby in the Knowledge Department.

13:11:48.680 --> 13:11:55.080
That's an interesting way because I always talked about Age of Empires was frustrating.

13:11:55.080 --> 13:11:58.880
But also the beauty of the game is that there's so many knowledge checks.

13:11:58.880 --> 13:12:02.680
You have to know about the Musaka, you need to know about the Sicilians,

13:12:02.680 --> 13:12:06.280
you need to know about the Don Jones, you need to know about the Castle units.

13:12:06.280 --> 13:12:10.880
You need to know about the bonuses and you need to know which units to do in there.

13:12:10.880 --> 13:12:18.460
pocket because it's very very vast and wide and I think that's where where pig

13:12:18.460 --> 13:12:23.460
came find an advantage because in terms of you know if you lean into grab his

13:12:23.460 --> 13:12:27.080
comfort but he's easy easy easy this like real-time Brazilian jiu-jitsu you

13:12:27.080 --> 13:12:29.920
know it's like oh he tried to sweep his leg then he sweeps your leg and then he

13:12:29.920 --> 13:12:33.080
has you in an armbar and then suddenly you're trying to break out of the armbar

13:12:33.080 --> 13:12:36.840
too late he is already biting your ear for some reason because there's no rules

13:12:36.840 --> 13:12:37.720
My Tyson?

13:12:37.720 --> 13:12:38.840
All about winning.

13:12:38.840 --> 13:12:40.840
My Tyson, baby.

13:12:40.840 --> 13:12:42.120
That's crazy.

13:12:42.120 --> 13:12:45.160
I mean, there's one thing to talk about here.

13:12:45.160 --> 13:12:48.120
So there's one more Arabian game guaranteed for Pig.

13:12:48.120 --> 13:12:50.120
And I really believe after that, Grubby

13:12:50.120 --> 13:12:54.280
will take a Serena if he loses this Arabian game for Pig.

13:12:54.280 --> 13:12:56.040
So Pig has one choice.

13:12:56.040 --> 13:12:59.000
Does he go for the Chinese, his best civilization,

13:12:59.000 --> 13:13:00.360
or does he go for that Wu?

13:13:00.360 --> 13:13:03.080
The Wu with the meta-armored to Jan Stordsman

13:13:03.080 --> 13:13:05.320
that he surprised Grubby with and was able to take that win

13:13:05.320 --> 13:13:06.240
against them.

13:13:06.240 --> 13:13:12.880
Very very strong strategy. He could go for it again against grubby snag a quick win on arabia or he could play the chinese

13:13:13.200 --> 13:13:18.000
He's tried and tested, you know one of the bestives in the game. Just go for that one. He's got that choice to make

13:13:18.000 --> 13:13:20.880
It's a very difficult choice to make. It's they're gonna make it right now. They're in the lobby

13:13:22.080 --> 13:13:27.280
Because I believe that pig wins this next game grubby will take game five to arena because he's got brigandians left

13:13:27.280 --> 13:13:32.000
And I don't think that grubby will let the grand finals go without playing brigandians on arena

13:13:32.000 --> 13:13:36.800
It's been his best civilization, he has a 100% win rate with it in this tournament.

13:13:37.400 --> 13:13:40.300
He hasn't lost a single arena with Burgundians.

13:13:40.300 --> 13:13:44.300
I feel like that's what's coming for a game five, even if Pig wins this game four.

13:13:44.300 --> 13:13:48.200
So it's going to be very, very interesting to see what Pig this has to go for

13:13:48.200 --> 13:13:50.100
and whether Grubby can actually win this game

13:13:50.100 --> 13:13:52.200
and whether he's going to take us back to arena afterwards.

13:13:52.800 --> 13:13:56.000
It's super interesting the last couple of games, or even the last one game,

13:13:56.000 --> 13:13:58.400
depending on how it goes ahead of us for the grand finals.

13:13:58.900 --> 13:14:00.300
Thank you all for tuning in, by the way.

13:14:00.300 --> 13:14:05.340
I know it's really late and it's my first time organizing this event and any event this size.

13:14:05.340 --> 13:14:11.580
So I know the days were long. I will definitely certainly learn from this for the next edition,

13:14:11.580 --> 13:14:15.180
of course, add in some more days and whatnot. I know it's been a long day.

13:14:17.660 --> 13:14:21.580
Like how many hours have you streamed the last four days, brother?

13:14:21.580 --> 13:14:23.260
So it was 15 and a half.

13:14:24.460 --> 13:14:29.260
Yeah, just the last four days, 15 and a half hours, 12 hours, 12 hours,

13:14:29.260 --> 13:14:32.140
and now 13 hours 15 minutes and counting it's literally

13:14:35.980 --> 13:14:38.540
one of the hardest things I've done by the way for sure on stream

13:14:41.020 --> 13:14:46.060
and I'm happy to do the camera work and all that jazz doing the commentary yeah accommodating all

13:14:46.060 --> 13:14:51.660
the homies that are coming by as well it's this it's hard work it's hard work for sure yeah well

13:14:51.660 --> 13:14:54.700
put some ads right now so there's no ads in game sorry go ahead Yamato

13:14:54.700 --> 13:15:02.700
I don't know, bro, just max them out, bro, go into the ad section and just all the way

13:15:02.700 --> 13:15:04.700
to drag that slider.

13:15:04.700 --> 13:15:09.260
I actually minimized the ad, I'm losing a lot of money off it, I can just screw them

13:15:09.260 --> 13:15:13.940
over 20 minutes of ads every hour, but I'm only on 3 minutes which is the lowest, so

13:15:13.940 --> 13:15:16.540
kind of keeping it as nice as possible for the viewers.

13:15:16.540 --> 13:15:23.340
Put some ads now, no ads in the game, should be good.

13:15:23.340 --> 13:15:24.680
in the lobby here.

13:15:24.680 --> 13:15:26.900
You built a monastery next to your house.

13:15:28.140 --> 13:15:28.980
It pious.

13:15:31.900 --> 13:15:32.740
How are they?

13:15:34.260 --> 13:15:35.660
All right, you said Wu, right?

13:15:35.660 --> 13:15:37.980
So it's the pop smoke sieve.

13:15:37.980 --> 13:15:38.820
Yeah.

13:15:40.180 --> 13:15:41.020
What are the Chinese, right?

13:15:41.020 --> 13:15:43.260
Like Chinese are also really good.

13:15:43.260 --> 13:15:44.100
Okay.

13:15:45.860 --> 13:15:47.260
Do they also have fireworks?

13:15:49.100 --> 13:15:52.580
The Wu, yeah, Chinese have the rocket carts.

13:15:52.580 --> 13:15:56.540
The woo, I think have manganese, I think, I'm not 100% sure.

13:15:58.300 --> 13:15:59.140
Lovely.

13:16:02.020 --> 13:16:03.460
It's already, I don't know if I see the wave,

13:16:03.460 --> 13:16:06.540
I see the tip of the sun.

13:16:07.460 --> 13:16:09.460
Oh, the sun's coming out, that's crazy.

13:16:11.300 --> 13:16:12.620
You've been playing it all night, Yamato.

13:16:12.620 --> 13:16:13.540
Thanks for staying here.

13:16:13.540 --> 13:16:14.500
Are you tired at all?

13:16:14.500 --> 13:16:15.340
Yeah.

13:16:16.100 --> 13:16:19.060
I'm like, physically fatigued.

13:16:19.060 --> 13:16:20.900
In the brain, I feel very awake.

13:16:20.900 --> 13:16:25.440
It's just my eyes, I have a lot of eye issues

13:16:25.440 --> 13:16:29.660
and the giga driver who's told you before that raises.

13:16:29.660 --> 13:16:32.500
So I'm just like blink maxing, you know?

13:16:32.500 --> 13:16:33.340
Like.

13:16:35.140 --> 13:16:37.620
I feel like you have a lot of resilience as a person though.

13:16:37.620 --> 13:16:41.060
Like, I feel like if you have to work 16 hour days,

13:16:41.060 --> 13:16:42.340
it's like a week straight, I feel like you do it.

13:16:42.340 --> 13:16:44.460
Like, we saw it kind of like the workouts.

13:16:44.460 --> 13:16:46.620
You kind of play these long days.

13:16:46.620 --> 13:16:49.400
You know, during the work of three,

13:16:49.400 --> 13:16:52.400
the work of three months, right?

13:16:52.400 --> 13:16:53.240
Yeah.

13:16:53.240 --> 13:16:55.240
I think I streamed like 380 hours.

13:16:55.240 --> 13:16:56.240
It's ridiculous.

13:16:57.360 --> 13:16:58.680
That's really ridiculous.

13:17:01.180 --> 13:17:03.460
Which is kind of sick, like.

13:17:03.460 --> 13:17:04.300
Yeah.

13:17:07.060 --> 13:17:08.580
I feel like you create a nice bond

13:17:08.580 --> 13:17:10.080
with your viewers at that point.

13:17:10.080 --> 13:17:11.920
Like, I tell my viewers all the time,

13:17:11.920 --> 13:17:14.200
it's like, when we're doing like a four hour stream,

13:17:14.200 --> 13:17:15.080
it feels like it's a business.

13:17:15.080 --> 13:17:18.960
I'm coming on I got a four-hour show. I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna leave there's that barrier

13:17:18.960 --> 13:17:23.480
But like a 12-hour stream it's just like you get that bond going like at that point

13:17:23.480 --> 13:17:25.040
It's just like a bunch of homeless children

13:17:25.040 --> 13:17:28.300
But with all that said guys let's hop into this next game the app session is over

13:17:28.300 --> 13:17:32.580
They started the game we're hopping right in and we have the Chinese from pigs

13:17:32.580 --> 13:17:36.860
So he's went with his strongest sieve and not anything that's gonna surprise Grubby

13:17:36.860 --> 13:17:42.560
But it's something that he's tried and tested it's worked really well for him and Grubby is going for his Ethiopians

13:17:42.560 --> 13:17:49.880
One of his best civilizations historically on Arabia and one that he feels confident to win the entire tournament with ladies and gentlemen

13:17:49.880 --> 13:17:53.320
It's match point for grubby in the grand finals of the Kings Garland

13:17:53.320 --> 13:17:58.200
Thank you all so much for watching so far pig is using his tried and tested Chinese as I mentioned and

13:17:59.720 --> 13:18:03.040
It's one of the bestives on Arabia and he's done really well with it

13:18:03.040 --> 13:18:08.920
In fact, he beat out grubby in their earlier matchup in the bracket using the Chinese in that game five

13:18:08.920 --> 13:18:11.300
Of course, it is a game for not the same stakes

13:18:11.300 --> 13:18:16.700
But it's still do or die. By the way, I need to sheet back in. Oh, this could be kind of a bad start

13:18:16.700 --> 13:18:21.400
We should be fine. You might have talked to me about the Chinese here in the Ethiopians. What do you vibe and now?

13:18:21.400 --> 13:18:23.400
What do you feel in vibe based on these civilizations?

13:18:24.100 --> 13:18:28.840
Honestly, I don't know shit about these tips, but I gotta say, you know in terms of

13:18:29.120 --> 13:18:34.060
Where the fatigue is that both players they are facing very unique challenges, you know

13:18:34.060 --> 13:18:38.020
It's also the pressure, you know, you can feel it a little bit the pressure definitely

13:18:38.020 --> 13:18:51.220
It's like, your match point, psychology can definitely play a big part, but obviously both of these guys in different ways have so much tournament experience and they are very well aware of the pressures that people are under.

13:18:51.980 --> 13:18:55.500
But being under the gun, playing a different game than what you used to.

13:18:56.180 --> 13:19:06.420
I wonder if we're going to see any differences or maybe some unforced errors that maybe these guys aren't going to make, or if there's going to completely clutch up and show us like a new evolution.

13:19:06.420 --> 13:19:11.940
kind of like we did, you know, we're kind of doing like, I felt like our finals, the one that we played to me,

13:19:11.940 --> 13:19:16.860
that was the best games I've made in tournament by far, you know, close in the early parts.

13:19:16.860 --> 13:19:19.180
I was kind of, I felt like I was kind of choking or something else.

13:19:19.180 --> 13:19:21.660
It's in team, you know, not finishing the game.

13:19:23.220 --> 13:19:25.940
After you kind of locked into the finals, let's see what comes of it.

13:19:25.940 --> 13:19:31.700
I always say that competition might have been as 50% mental and 50% skill, preparation, all that stuff.

13:19:31.700 --> 13:19:35.980
But the mental aspect is super, super underrated, 100% concentrated power of will.

13:19:35.980 --> 13:19:40.840
There you go. I actually get that reference, which is rare for a model one, but I got you. That's a classic though

13:19:40.840 --> 13:19:43.980
That's an easy one a second board coming in for a grubby

13:19:44.620 --> 13:19:48.480
Nice and early borrowers here for him not looking to take any risks

13:19:48.480 --> 13:19:53.820
He's got four on wood needs a house though can't forget the house. Those are the unforced areas you're talking about

13:19:54.300 --> 13:19:57.880
Goes for it though. Wait, is this is this red false?

13:19:58.660 --> 13:20:01.560
Red false can at the open can at the open is red false

13:20:02.020 --> 13:20:05.320
Because I'm just seeing four on wood and very early pickle

13:20:05.980 --> 13:20:13.980
And now he's going to Berries. He's pulling two Berries. He's pulling two Berries on 100 wood.

13:20:13.980 --> 13:20:17.980
This is full-on Red Force. Can you do it with the Europeans?

13:20:17.980 --> 13:20:19.980
You can, you can.

13:20:19.980 --> 13:20:22.980
Uniqueness is a Hotel Warrior. It's a very strong infantry.

13:20:22.980 --> 13:20:26.980
It's actually very, very powerful if you can pull it off correctly.

13:20:26.980 --> 13:20:29.980
And I wouldn't be surprised if, you know, potentially Grubby has prepared this.

13:20:29.980 --> 13:20:33.980
He's played a lot of standard Ethiopian games, a lot of archers, a lot of standard builds,

13:20:33.980 --> 13:20:36.300
Standard builds, men of arms, all the good stuff.

13:20:36.300 --> 13:20:38.940
If he had prepared a red frost build,

13:20:38.940 --> 13:20:40.500
that would be crazy, it's brilliant.

13:20:40.500 --> 13:20:42.060
He's keeping the scout in the base.

13:20:42.060 --> 13:20:44.820
Early pig, he pulled the pig on six,

13:20:44.820 --> 13:20:47.220
and then he pulled the second one instantly,

13:20:47.220 --> 13:20:50.880
keeping the safe res, and then insert to bury on 100 wood.

13:20:51.820 --> 13:20:52.940
Four on one very well.

13:20:52.940 --> 13:20:54.740
Oh my God, it's actually a red frost build.

13:20:54.740 --> 13:20:55.580
Just so right now.

13:20:55.580 --> 13:20:56.420
Saturation.

13:20:56.420 --> 13:20:58.380
It's saturation, so how many do you need?

13:20:58.380 --> 13:20:59.780
If it's not eight, seven?

13:21:01.340 --> 13:21:03.660
The thing is, I think that you should send eight,

13:21:03.660 --> 13:21:07.420
because you should long, like these chickens are very safe.

13:21:07.420 --> 13:21:09.620
I think you can two men kill the chickens

13:21:09.620 --> 13:21:10.980
and you should send eight to berries

13:21:10.980 --> 13:21:12.540
based on position of everything.

13:21:12.540 --> 13:21:14.740
Wait, so you want to saturate the berries the whole time?

13:21:14.740 --> 13:21:16.420
So eight to saturation is good?

13:21:17.340 --> 13:21:20.020
I will send eight in this particular state.

13:21:21.420 --> 13:21:23.500
Kind of strange to kill instantly the goats

13:21:23.500 --> 13:21:25.940
because that's your safe resources.

13:21:25.940 --> 13:21:27.260
I don't think he's going for it though, no matter.

13:21:27.260 --> 13:21:30.100
I think he's playing a regular build.

13:21:30.100 --> 13:21:32.860
Depends if he's sending the next village to stone.

13:21:32.860 --> 13:21:36.300
No, no, no, it's not Red Fawcett.

13:21:36.300 --> 13:21:37.980
It's not Red Fawcett, it was looking kind of close though.

13:21:37.980 --> 13:21:40.580
I saw the vision to be fair from what you were talking about.

13:21:40.580 --> 13:21:42.260
But it's going to be a men-at-arms build, most likely,

13:21:42.260 --> 13:21:43.100
for the Ethiopians here.

13:21:43.100 --> 13:21:46.100
He's playing with it, he's playing what it's like to play

13:21:46.100 --> 13:21:47.140
so far in the tournament.

13:21:47.140 --> 13:21:48.740
Pig getting a little close there,

13:21:49.940 --> 13:21:52.220
but no Garrison from Grubby.

13:21:52.220 --> 13:21:54.380
500 food though, exactly for the ClickUp.

13:21:54.380 --> 13:21:57.900
It's going to be men-at-arms, most likely, from Ethiopians.

13:21:57.900 --> 13:22:01.020
Fair enough, it's a good strategy up against the Chinese here.

13:22:01.020 --> 13:22:03.480
Chinese is pulling in some chickens, very nice.

13:22:03.480 --> 13:22:05.900
He'll be obviously taking some of those.

13:22:05.900 --> 13:22:07.140
Barracks on the front.

13:22:07.140 --> 13:22:08.900
Looks like a fast feudal for the Chinese.

13:22:08.900 --> 13:22:11.100
They can play archers, they can play skirm spear.

13:22:11.100 --> 13:22:13.780
They can play into pretty much whatever their heart desires.

13:22:13.780 --> 13:22:16.740
You can also just go for scout opening.

13:22:16.740 --> 13:22:18.100
We've got so many options with the Chinese,

13:22:18.100 --> 13:22:19.660
which is why it's such a good civilization.

13:22:19.660 --> 13:22:21.300
He's up two villages from the start, by the way.

13:22:21.300 --> 13:22:23.180
That's the Chinese start kind of kicking in.

13:22:23.180 --> 13:22:24.020
More rest collected.

13:22:24.020 --> 13:22:26.580
It's why there's such a strong civilization.

13:22:26.580 --> 13:22:28.740
Grubby has a competitive feudal each time though,

13:22:28.740 --> 13:22:30.860
and he will pull in some gold

13:22:30.860 --> 13:22:37.860
We would afford that third militia and he'll get men of arms because Ethiopians get that hundred extra gold as the age up to the feudal age.

13:22:37.860 --> 13:22:41.860
So it's in the men of arms after all, which is a decent start for the Ethiopians.

13:22:44.860 --> 13:22:49.860
And as far as I know, Ethiopians, they have the bonuses for the archers.

13:22:49.860 --> 13:22:53.860
Is that what we're gunning for? We're going to see archer heavy builds.

13:22:53.860 --> 13:23:03.160
So, archers are a good part of the Ethiopian strategy. The archers attack, you know, 18% faster, I think, which is a nice bonus, having faster-firing archers.

13:23:03.160 --> 13:23:09.160
However, they can play like a number of things. They've got camel options. You can play a pikeman. They get pikemen up for free.

13:23:09.160 --> 13:23:15.860
You can go for some siege. You can go for some infantry. But mainly archers, and Grubby has shown to actually really like the Ethiopian archers.

13:23:15.860 --> 13:23:21.860
Wolf on the front is a bit unlucky there for him, and Pig is just walling up. So it's going to be a men of arms problem into archers. Pig!

13:23:21.860 --> 13:23:23.860
Straight onto the archers.

13:23:23.860 --> 13:23:25.860
Scout strap now, yeah, that's true.

13:23:25.860 --> 13:23:27.860
Kill the villagers though.

13:23:27.860 --> 13:23:29.860
Grabbing so good I'd be annoying.

13:23:29.860 --> 13:23:31.860
There's a pocket there in the northern wood, okay.

13:23:33.860 --> 13:23:35.860
Wolf will get cleared up.

13:23:35.860 --> 13:23:37.860
Half of Malisha is just kind of dead because of that wolf.

13:23:37.860 --> 13:23:39.860
It's a little unlucky for Grubby.

13:23:39.860 --> 13:23:41.860
Yamato, this pocket up top could be

13:23:41.860 --> 13:23:43.860
actually something that Pig doesn't know about.

13:23:43.860 --> 13:23:45.860
He kind of knows, but he's not walling it right now.

13:23:45.860 --> 13:23:47.860
That's a freaky woodline.

13:23:47.860 --> 13:23:49.860
Like, what was that hole in the wood, bro?

13:23:49.860 --> 13:23:57.300
wood bro that is like that wood line is balding bro like that is that's male pattern ball

13:23:57.300 --> 13:24:04.020
that's I've ever seen it it's not looking good for that wood line all right three men arms

13:24:04.020 --> 13:24:07.500
on the field scout that go down to grubby not off to like a historic start with these

13:24:07.500 --> 13:24:12.220
men arms and dude honestly pig with these walls and the archer range I think this is fantastic

13:24:12.220 --> 13:24:17.180
for the Chinese just defend your base nice and early with some archers I feel like that's

13:24:17.180 --> 13:24:18.620
really, really good for him.

13:24:21.120 --> 13:24:23.320
Really like the base design. Very nice base layout.

13:24:23.720 --> 13:24:24.580
Two cuts.

13:24:25.220 --> 13:24:27.560
Yeah, it's coped to to punch palisades.

13:24:28.220 --> 13:24:31.320
So you don't have to endlessly, you can even build another one.

13:24:31.320 --> 13:24:33.360
Like, this is not progress progress.

13:24:34.960 --> 13:24:38.520
Oh, pig, it's that archer, but Grubby's there with the spear.

13:24:39.120 --> 13:24:39.960
Good spearman there.

13:24:39.960 --> 13:24:42.380
With that spear, the archer could actually be in trouble to that scout.

13:24:42.380 --> 13:24:45.720
That archer's gonna force a lot of potential movement here, though.

13:24:45.720 --> 13:24:50.320
Grubby's got that one Archie's gonna try to micro his broken through the palace. It's not as cope as you think it is

13:24:50.560 --> 13:24:52.560
We matter. That's a bill dead

13:24:52.920 --> 13:24:56.040
Good stuff from Grubby kills the villagers. It's not that cope with teams

13:24:57.600 --> 13:25:01.160
We need to see a couple of skirmishes. I think the production of the

13:25:02.280 --> 13:25:04.280
Archery range could have been a little bit quicker

13:25:05.000 --> 13:25:06.600
Yep, I agree

13:25:06.600 --> 13:25:08.600
He cracked the gold

13:25:08.680 --> 13:25:12.200
Doesn't he have a safer gold in the back? Why is he harvesting this one?

13:25:12.200 --> 13:25:17.940
I could take it. I actually agree with you taking this gold, especially when the chickens ran out, you could just go straight to that gold.

13:25:17.940 --> 13:25:22.840
Could have been really nice. Taking that forward gold, especially when the rest of your base is so safe, was kind of a misplay.

13:25:22.840 --> 13:25:26.840
But maybe, again, we talked about that fatigue. Pig is actually playing quite late for him.

13:25:26.840 --> 13:25:31.200
He might not be thinking about all these little details. Of course, both players are certainly fatigued.

13:25:31.200 --> 13:25:37.740
Grubby's on his fourth set of the day and Pig's playing at odd hours here in Australia, so fatigue is certainly part of it.

13:25:37.740 --> 13:25:40.980
You know me walling off at least

13:25:41.700 --> 13:25:45.240
It's either a wall or it's a zero-mobile. Are you a thermal?

13:25:46.100 --> 13:25:48.100
It's gonna be a wall

13:25:50.340 --> 13:25:54.060
We've got a weak man arms just chilling in the corner. I like that. He pulls them back

13:25:54.060 --> 13:25:57.140
He doesn't let the he doesn't want to let the kill go to pigs

13:25:57.140 --> 13:25:59.660
It's just gonna conserve that guy for later a little bit of vision

13:25:59.660 --> 13:26:04.820
Maybe more just coming up from grubby and a blacksmith behind this one is he's used to eat the opens

13:26:04.820 --> 13:26:06.820
You know kind of perfectly so far

13:26:06.820 --> 13:26:11.180
very happy with how he's been playing them but we have scrims on the other side

13:26:11.180 --> 13:26:14.100
Chinese skirmishers are solid good farming for pig as well likely these

13:26:14.100 --> 13:26:17.420
beans at the table could use a blacksmith now blacksmith now would be

13:26:17.420 --> 13:26:20.300
fantastic for pig

13:26:28.220 --> 13:26:31.940
big walls for grubby and this is something that I like because grubby

13:26:31.940 --> 13:26:36.800
always keeps himself exposed getting the walls down playing safe I like

13:26:36.800 --> 13:26:41.600
to see that for Grubby. I think that's a good choice honestly.

13:26:41.600 --> 13:26:47.740
Tries to find some some some holes in the defense too. Keeping his units busy. Always

13:26:47.740 --> 13:26:48.740
be moving.

13:26:48.740 --> 13:26:52.240
There's some little looping going on.

13:26:52.240 --> 13:26:55.580
One rule to make about military. Always be moving.

13:26:55.580 --> 13:26:56.580
Yeah.

13:26:56.580 --> 13:26:58.580
Because you can always get a vision, right?

13:26:58.580 --> 13:27:00.900
If you're not moving, it's better be to protect some siege unit, bro.

13:27:00.900 --> 13:27:03.100
Yeah, yeah. I actually agree with that for sure.

13:27:03.100 --> 13:27:08.860
A little bit of a loop here for Grubby to try to hit this brief piece of pellicide.

13:27:08.860 --> 13:27:12.660
It's not going to do much though because Pig is already going back to defend, but just

13:27:12.660 --> 13:27:15.140
forcing Pig to defend is kind of okay.

13:27:15.140 --> 13:27:18.900
While you set up your walls, I think Grubby's more than happy to get those walls set up.

13:27:18.900 --> 13:27:22.060
Square walls, that's usually like a cardinal sin, diagonal walls, that's usually better.

13:27:22.060 --> 13:27:24.860
You want a wall, the hypotenuse guys.

13:27:24.860 --> 13:27:25.860
Grade 8 math.

13:27:25.860 --> 13:27:27.780
Grubby's got to go back, take a lesson.

13:27:27.780 --> 13:27:32.100
A couple of minute arms go under the TC, but overall I feel like those straight walls

13:27:32.100 --> 13:27:35.880
were cheaper are straight wall cheaper nope the angle would be way better

13:27:35.880 --> 13:27:43.660
because you make less walls yeah oh someone told me they're cheaper straight

13:27:43.660 --> 13:27:48.460
walls I think you got some wrong information to be honest

13:27:48.460 --> 13:27:51.780
oh there's a hole there's a hole in the back remember that ball but that ball

13:27:51.780 --> 13:27:59.660
thing woodline there's a passage yeah this woodline needs to give it up bro

13:27:59.660 --> 13:28:01.660
It's gonna go bro

13:28:04.260 --> 13:28:07.200
But no the skirmishers gonna close the gap on the archers

13:28:07.260 --> 13:28:09.700
Grubber trying to get the best shape possible. He's got the middle arm in there

13:28:09.700 --> 13:28:14.940
He's actually doing really good work. He's gonna kill a couple of scrims overall. Yeah, but well played by Pig

13:28:14.940 --> 13:28:16.520
He clears up the army

13:28:16.520 --> 13:28:19.980
Garrison's beautiful run away with that low HP skirmisher clears up the archer

13:28:19.980 --> 13:28:25.220
I think he's really happy about that pig gonna survive for now, but Grubby look at that already up to the next age

13:28:25.620 --> 13:28:27.620
So good one step ahead

13:28:27.620 --> 13:28:29.620
head.

13:28:29.620 --> 13:28:33.540
Pack up full wall off as well for any counter damage.

13:28:33.540 --> 13:28:34.940
I don't know.

13:28:34.940 --> 13:28:38.180
The punches are just landing, and then he's ready for the counter

13:28:38.180 --> 13:28:40.940
always ready for the counter.

13:28:40.940 --> 13:28:43.980
And then as pig without information,

13:28:43.980 --> 13:28:45.900
because that's the thing as well, when you're harassing,

13:28:45.900 --> 13:28:47.420
you have full information.

13:28:47.420 --> 13:28:49.860
He doesn't know what's cooking on the other side.

13:28:49.860 --> 13:28:53.020
He doesn't even know if there's a second army coming.

13:28:53.020 --> 13:28:55.700
He doesn't know if there's a tech already.

13:28:55.700 --> 13:28:57.780
He doesn't even know if the wall's up.

13:28:57.780 --> 13:29:00.540
Yeah, Piggy's trying to scout, by the way, fairness to him,

13:29:00.540 --> 13:29:02.780
but you're so right that when you're not attacking,

13:29:02.780 --> 13:29:04.180
you have barely any vision.

13:29:04.180 --> 13:29:06.540
Like, look at the second ranges behind the walls.

13:29:06.540 --> 13:29:08.340
Grubby's preparing that castlage,

13:29:08.340 --> 13:29:10.380
and Piggy's no idea of any timings

13:29:10.380 --> 13:29:12.180
that's being hit from the other side.

13:29:12.180 --> 13:29:13.980
Piggy's about to clear up the castlage himself.

13:29:13.980 --> 13:29:16.340
Mark gets up, he can go up the castlage now.

13:29:16.340 --> 13:29:18.220
40 seconds away from Grubby's castle,

13:29:18.220 --> 13:29:19.700
but Piggy's at least attacking,

13:29:19.700 --> 13:29:21.660
so he might buy some time with those skirmishers.

13:29:21.660 --> 13:29:22.700
No fire lance or switch,

13:29:22.700 --> 13:29:26.260
It's gonna be just crossbow play from Grubby right now.

13:29:27.840 --> 13:29:28.680
I don't know how you feel,

13:29:28.680 --> 13:29:30.920
but I feel like if skirmishers are not hitting archers,

13:29:30.920 --> 13:29:33.420
I feel like they don't do anything.

13:29:33.420 --> 13:29:36.420
I feel like they are doing,

13:29:36.420 --> 13:29:38.260
they are doing some acupuncture,

13:29:38.260 --> 13:29:40.820
to even villages, you know, they got loom.

13:29:40.820 --> 13:29:43.620
It's like, it's comfort for, look at that village.

13:29:43.620 --> 13:29:45.740
They didn't give a fuck, they didn't even stop mining,

13:29:45.740 --> 13:29:47.060
bro, he just kept going.

13:29:48.220 --> 13:29:49.380
You're actually so right.

13:29:49.380 --> 13:29:52.180
Like skirmishers, they're a great candidate for archers.

13:29:52.180 --> 13:29:57.100
But without hitting archers you're not doing much and actually Pigg just goes back

13:29:57.100 --> 13:29:59.380
He sees the passage. He's maybe might be scared of some knights

13:29:59.380 --> 13:30:04.180
Of course we talked about that lack of vision that lack of vision, but there could be like 10 stables back here

13:30:04.180 --> 13:30:06.660
He's got no clue so he just goes back to play it safe

13:30:06.660 --> 13:30:11.140
Which is actually kind of smart from his end and pig will finish his walls to play extra safe at home

13:30:11.260 --> 13:30:13.860
Grabbing movies out with only six archers. It's not great

13:30:13.860 --> 13:30:17.700
But they are crossbows with bodkin and maybe a forward siege now yet the forward seed

13:30:17.700 --> 13:30:20.560
He's loved that strategy, so has Uthermo by the way,

13:30:20.560 --> 13:30:24.880
the two potentially best Arabian players of the tournament,

13:30:24.880 --> 13:30:27.060
although Pig certainly a cup to Arabian player

13:30:27.060 --> 13:30:30.060
in his own right, could easily be considered up there as well.

13:30:31.660 --> 13:30:33.240
So look at the scum, so now,

13:30:33.240 --> 13:30:36.300
kind of out of position for a little Lupera.

13:30:36.300 --> 13:30:37.220
Yeah.

13:30:37.220 --> 13:30:41.700
The lack of mobility on some of the infantry units

13:30:41.700 --> 13:30:45.180
is not infantry, but like the human beings that are walking.

13:30:45.180 --> 13:30:46.140
Yeah.

13:30:46.140 --> 13:30:48.680
Position is so key.

13:30:48.680 --> 13:30:49.440
Oh, a label.

13:30:49.440 --> 13:30:51.400
Oh, a couple villagers going down.

13:30:51.400 --> 13:30:52.280
Pig's got a react.

13:30:52.280 --> 13:30:53.040
He lost only one.

13:30:53.040 --> 13:30:53.560
Lost only one.

13:30:53.560 --> 13:30:54.440
It's not terrible.

13:30:54.440 --> 13:30:56.400
By the way, he doesn't see the workshop.

13:30:56.400 --> 13:30:57.920
Oh, wait, what?

13:30:57.920 --> 13:30:58.720
Oh, he sees it now.

13:30:58.720 --> 13:30:59.720
I actually understand why.

13:31:02.920 --> 13:31:03.960
I think now see it.

13:31:03.960 --> 13:31:06.040
Because the crossbows, when they attack you, give vision.

13:31:06.040 --> 13:31:06.640
They're shooting.

13:31:06.640 --> 13:31:07.440
Yeah.

13:31:07.440 --> 13:31:08.640
And they walk back, so they actually

13:31:08.640 --> 13:31:09.720
give vision of the siege workshop.

13:31:09.720 --> 13:31:12.320
Very cool mechanic in Age of Empires.

13:31:12.320 --> 13:31:14.280
And so information goes to Pig.

13:31:14.280 --> 13:31:15.600
He now knows who he's up against.

13:31:15.600 --> 13:31:17.160
He's trying to go for some Fire Lancers.

13:31:17.160 --> 13:31:19.440
Fire Lancers Scrimmage is really good to counter this,

13:31:19.440 --> 13:31:22.200
but you need a lot of upgrades for that combo.

13:31:22.200 --> 13:31:24.320
I don't know if he's got time to get those upgrades.

13:31:24.320 --> 13:31:26.160
The Magano is already coming out for Grubby.

13:31:26.160 --> 13:31:27.440
Ballistics coming in.

13:31:27.440 --> 13:31:29.720
Well, Magano, yeah, there it is, it's coming out now.

13:31:29.720 --> 13:31:33.600
Archer, Magano, Ballistics, this is a very big push.

13:31:33.600 --> 13:31:35.320
Grubby's investing into a lot of tech.

13:31:35.320 --> 13:31:37.120
No extra talent center for him.

13:31:37.120 --> 13:31:38.480
Pig is going for the extra talent center.

13:31:38.480 --> 13:31:40.920
All he has to do is hold.

13:31:40.920 --> 13:31:42.520
You just have to hold here,

13:31:42.520 --> 13:31:44.160
but holding is so difficult

13:31:44.160 --> 13:31:45.560
because Grubby's got a great army.

13:31:46.720 --> 13:31:48.280
Are those upgraded scurms already?

13:31:48.280 --> 13:31:49.640
Yeah, elite scurms.

13:31:49.640 --> 13:31:50.480
It's already in.

13:31:50.480 --> 13:31:51.320
Oh, nice.

13:31:51.320 --> 13:31:52.200
He even has armor.

13:31:52.200 --> 13:31:53.440
He's missing bot can arrow,

13:31:53.440 --> 13:31:55.520
but the armor is the most important stat

13:31:55.520 --> 13:31:57.640
for the skirmisher when you're up against the archer.

13:31:57.640 --> 13:31:59.080
You want to take less damage on a tank

13:31:59.080 --> 13:32:00.800
and be able to walk forward.

13:32:00.800 --> 13:32:02.160
I like this from Grubby.

13:32:02.160 --> 13:32:03.920
A nice little cheap Ethiopian outpost.

13:32:03.920 --> 13:32:05.240
They don't cost any stone.

13:32:05.240 --> 13:32:06.080
They have extra vision.

13:32:06.080 --> 13:32:07.160
You want to make them.

13:32:07.160 --> 13:32:08.600
Good scouting, by the way, from Pig.

13:32:08.600 --> 13:32:09.920
Both players playing phenomenal.

13:32:09.920 --> 13:32:11.760
Seriously, really high level match.

13:32:11.760 --> 13:32:18.760
How do the Fire Lancers, how well do the Ferragans siege units?

13:32:18.760 --> 13:32:20.760
Are they capable of taking them down?

13:32:20.760 --> 13:32:21.760
Yes, sure.

13:32:21.760 --> 13:32:25.760
If a Fire Lancer closes the gap on a Manganol, they destroy the Manganol.

13:32:25.760 --> 13:32:30.760
However, if the Manganol is protected with some crossbows, suddenly it's not so easy, you know?

13:32:30.760 --> 13:32:33.760
So, Fire Lancer needs to hit the Manganol, he needs to avoid the crossbow.

13:32:33.760 --> 13:32:37.760
If a pesky militia that really sapped the resources away from Pig,

13:32:37.760 --> 13:32:40.760
will not really achieve a whole lot, that unit's pretty bad right now.

13:32:40.760 --> 13:32:47.820
The chat is saying, one militia to send a message, maybe, maybe, a little bit of psychological

13:32:47.820 --> 13:32:51.220
pressure there, two houses will go down, Grubby's push is alive.

13:32:51.220 --> 13:32:54.500
I would sit on the hill and just take out the barracks, honestly here.

13:32:54.500 --> 13:32:56.860
I wouldn't want to push past this.

13:32:56.860 --> 13:32:58.860
It has a flag on it, it's pretty scary.

13:32:58.860 --> 13:33:01.660
Two of Grubby decides, going to go for the range.

13:33:01.660 --> 13:33:04.460
He's looking to, you know, kind of zone in on this army.

13:33:04.460 --> 13:33:06.860
A couple of attack grounds, always getting some good hits.

13:33:06.860 --> 13:33:08.260
Pig is looking to fight.

13:33:08.260 --> 13:33:09.420
The eject onto the barracks.

13:33:09.420 --> 13:33:14.300
is the big clear up for pig can you go for it fire lancers look at a close the gap onto the manganals

13:33:14.300 --> 13:33:15.420
with the mangos

13:33:15.420 --> 13:33:16.780
the mangos are slow

13:33:16.780 --> 13:33:17.180
yep

13:33:17.180 --> 13:33:18.300
well that's big

13:33:18.300 --> 13:33:18.860
that's huge

13:33:19.580 --> 13:33:20.380
piggy holds

13:33:20.380 --> 13:33:20.540
piggy holds

13:33:20.540 --> 13:33:21.420
got a back off right

13:33:22.380 --> 13:33:23.340
are you continuing

13:33:23.340 --> 13:33:25.340
ooh i don't like how the lancers are walking in

13:33:26.620 --> 13:33:27.660
a lot of lancers went down

13:33:27.660 --> 13:33:28.700
oh manganal oh my god

13:33:29.740 --> 13:33:30.540
he whiffs

13:33:30.540 --> 13:33:31.180
air ball

13:33:31.180 --> 13:33:31.980
to set things off

13:33:31.980 --> 13:33:32.780
grab your gashy fight

13:33:32.780 --> 13:33:33.820
we gotta defend

13:33:33.820 --> 13:33:34.620
the mango

13:33:37.420 --> 13:33:38.300
good hiding from us

13:33:38.300 --> 13:33:44.300
are not as expandable. I don't remember the double TC though is doing a lot of work. The

13:33:44.300 --> 13:33:50.580
village account is popping off here for Pig and he's harvesting a lot of gold. Is that

13:33:50.580 --> 13:33:54.820
another TC and base or what is that building? Is that a siege workshop in university?

13:33:54.820 --> 13:34:00.700
It's a monastery and I have a range coming up so a lot of buildings being invested into

13:34:00.700 --> 13:34:03.900
from Pig, maybe even too many. I don't know if he's going to be able to afford everything

13:34:03.900 --> 13:34:06.600
from these buildings that he's committing to.

13:34:06.600 --> 13:34:10.100
Research collected exactly the same, but 14.1 thousand.

13:34:10.100 --> 13:34:12.160
Grubby's gonna add a second town center back home,

13:34:12.160 --> 13:34:14.840
not to continue committing to the 1 DC.

13:34:14.840 --> 13:34:16.680
We'll make a monastery for Relics as well.

13:34:16.680 --> 13:34:18.280
Counterattack with the skirmishers

13:34:18.280 --> 13:34:20.480
could be a bit nasty actually to deal with.

13:34:20.480 --> 13:34:22.760
We'll take a look back at that, but for now,

13:34:22.760 --> 13:34:25.640
it looks like Grubby would just take out the barracks.

13:34:25.640 --> 13:34:27.160
Now I'll say I hate these skirmishers

13:34:27.160 --> 13:34:29.680
walking out to counter harass.

13:34:29.680 --> 13:34:30.520
You don't like that, Ed?

13:34:30.520 --> 13:34:32.480
I get it, because once again,

13:34:32.480 --> 13:34:34.720
like they, I don't care if they're elite,

13:34:34.720 --> 13:34:37.080
I don't care if they're the president of skirmishes.

13:34:37.080 --> 13:34:39.000
They don't do any damage to buildings,

13:34:39.000 --> 13:34:41.360
they don't do damage to villages.

13:34:41.360 --> 13:34:43.960
Like this, you gotta be fighting these crossbowmen.

13:34:43.960 --> 13:34:45.800
Go back to the home, brother.

13:34:45.800 --> 13:34:48.000
I agree with you, but pick up reinforcements is not bad.

13:34:48.000 --> 13:34:49.560
Yeah, I think we're even happy with that.

13:34:49.560 --> 13:34:50.880
This is solid, this is solid.

13:34:50.880 --> 13:34:52.120
Yeah, this is good.

13:34:52.120 --> 13:34:54.200
We can get on board with that.

13:34:54.200 --> 13:34:56.320
Grubby running past with a few crossbows.

13:34:56.320 --> 13:34:58.320
This is possible while there's no ballistics

13:34:58.320 --> 13:35:00.840
for these skirmishes, but ballistics coming in 45 seconds.

13:35:00.840 --> 13:35:02.280
Once you get that, you can hit movie targets

13:35:02.280 --> 13:35:06.640
with ease. Crossbow, Magna on the front here for Grubby, he's doing very very well for

13:35:06.640 --> 13:35:13.120
himself. I like how the manganelles are hiding in the debris bro, they're just blending in.

13:35:13.120 --> 13:35:19.200
Kind of true. Keep a nice attack ground here. I don't think he saw them, they're in the

13:35:19.200 --> 13:35:23.000
debris, debris is cleared now though. A couple Lancers going down pretty quickly, Botkina

13:35:23.000 --> 13:35:27.560
coming in, a lot of tech coming in for Pig for these skirmishers. Not that many Crossbows

13:35:27.560 --> 13:35:31.800
here, honestly, I think Grubby might have to just go back. Crossbows have to hit the

13:35:31.800 --> 13:35:34.520
Lancers, Megan else will hit the skirmishers. That's the plan for grubby

13:35:36.560 --> 13:35:40.240
The kiting all good kiting from grubby, but pig is doing really well

13:35:40.840 --> 13:35:42.840
He's gonna kill both back now

13:35:43.040 --> 13:35:48.240
Now you know from the back back the lances this time he learned. Oh my god, buddy. It's like the last one

13:35:48.240 --> 13:35:54.840
That's insane. The magnet all has no counter right now, but pig pushes this back. It's such a close game honestly

13:35:54.840 --> 13:36:00.040
I complain about those skirmishers, but they they did an amazing amount of work

13:36:00.040 --> 13:36:02.880
Yeah, like just can you just check how many they killed ten?

13:36:03.600 --> 13:36:09.660
Ten of the reinforcements they flanked to yeah, you're full actually. Yeah, really good play. I like that

13:36:09.660 --> 13:36:11.660
That's why I was eliminated in the first one

13:36:13.180 --> 13:36:16.500
Don't say that bro. You're good. You're good. That wasn't the reason anyway

13:36:16.500 --> 13:36:18.660
But it's good. They could have been a mistake, you know

13:36:18.660 --> 13:36:23.180
You got the skirmishers, but they came out really clutching the end cutting off some of those reinforcements

13:36:23.180 --> 13:36:27.620
Manganaw coming out and getting chased away by the fire lancer honestly. It's a vantage pig

13:36:27.620 --> 13:36:32.420
I can't believe we're saying this this advantage pig. We might be heading into a game five for this grand finals

13:36:36.300 --> 13:36:38.380
What the monks are starting to get produced

13:36:40.340 --> 13:36:42.460
Two monks only for pig random

13:36:43.900 --> 13:36:49.660
You know what I'd love to see if he just upgrades the monks to steal the manganelles. Oh, you like that, huh?

13:36:50.300 --> 13:36:53.460
Problem is steal the buildings instead of breaking this building. It is

13:36:53.460 --> 13:36:59.900
wall all over on the building I'm so sorry to tell you this but neither

13:36:59.900 --> 13:37:04.220
civilization has that attack you don't have redemption on either side yeah yeah

13:37:04.220 --> 13:37:12.620
huge that's not what you want to hear I really need a game five I need a game

13:37:12.620 --> 13:37:17.300
five injected into my damn veins I need a game five I think we're headed there

13:37:17.300 --> 13:37:22.340
honestly like pig is the hell beautifully and I feel like grubby he's not

13:37:22.340 --> 13:37:27.040
bad position like he's got good eco he's actually it's everything still

13:37:27.040 --> 13:37:30.420
playable but against the Chinese it's really hard to win when they get map

13:37:30.420 --> 13:37:40.300
control skirmishers need to get buffed on damage on the on workers bro you know

13:37:40.300 --> 13:37:43.460
skirmishers are really broken and pro play by the way we do not need buffs

13:37:43.460 --> 13:37:48.620
and skirmishers they got nerf recently and they're still strong give them just a

13:37:48.620 --> 13:37:51.320
a little bit more damage than Billy, come on now.

13:37:51.320 --> 13:37:52.820
Plus one damage to Billy.

13:37:53.960 --> 13:37:55.500
Yeah, yeah, yeah, well, it's enough.

13:37:55.500 --> 13:37:56.820
Delete Loom from the game.

13:37:56.820 --> 13:37:57.820
Ha ha ha ha ha!

13:37:59.700 --> 13:38:00.940
Delete Loom?

13:38:00.940 --> 13:38:03.780
Actually, it's only used in pro level anyway.

13:38:03.780 --> 13:38:06.340
Yeah, delete Loom and nothing changes in this tournament,

13:38:06.340 --> 13:38:07.240
to be honest.

13:38:07.240 --> 13:38:09.700
The people just have an extra 50 gold at the time.

13:38:09.700 --> 13:38:10.540
That's all it changes.

13:38:10.540 --> 13:38:13.420
Honestly, I played two games, I got Loom twice,

13:38:13.420 --> 13:38:14.500
and I lost.

13:38:14.500 --> 13:38:19.620
use with causation. That's 50 Gs imagine I have another samurai.

13:38:22.820 --> 13:38:25.620
All right, that's an aggressive TC place. Look at that TC.

13:38:26.500 --> 13:38:29.940
TC coming out of the big. I love the status.

13:38:31.300 --> 13:38:34.820
I mean, he landed. I'm scared for this. You scared? All right.

13:38:34.820 --> 13:38:36.980
It's good and bad, right? Control the hill. Yeah.

13:38:38.500 --> 13:38:42.260
Massive on the center. You have to control that. If this goes to Grubby, all of a sudden this is

13:38:42.260 --> 13:38:45.980
terrible so I like it because it secures the gold but I hate it because it's

13:38:45.980 --> 13:38:49.740
downhill. Of course the amount of your scared for that TC's life but by the way

13:38:49.740 --> 13:38:53.500
Grubby just constantly attacks is fantastic he gets a window to move out

13:38:53.500 --> 13:38:57.260
he's gonna take that window he's gonna go back to the siege workshop Pig is

13:38:57.260 --> 13:39:00.380
about to click up to Imperial Age he's gonna need a secondary building that

13:39:00.380 --> 13:39:03.580
he's got to you can click up Grubby's about to be up as well this is still a

13:39:03.580 --> 13:39:07.660
really close game both players up to Imperial Age but Grubby clicks first Pig

13:39:07.660 --> 13:39:13.180
you gotta click brother we're missing 30 gold we have it now we gotta click we

13:39:13.180 --> 13:39:17.540
gotta click we're missing crucial crucial timings right now if we don't

13:39:17.540 --> 13:39:25.020
click 10 come on forward castle oh my god oh my god grubby can go for a

13:39:25.020 --> 13:39:28.460
forward castle he's got 700 stolen this hill that we talked about your motto

13:39:28.460 --> 13:39:32.980
this town that it could be the end of pig to be honest grubby's aggression

13:39:32.980 --> 13:39:36.180
might win this game bro he's not looking what is happening

13:39:36.180 --> 13:39:38.180
Unforced error, we talked about this.

13:39:39.180 --> 13:39:42.180
But, but, Grubby's gonna lose a lot of army here.

13:39:43.180 --> 13:39:45.180
Yeah, Grubby might dive too deep, honestly.

13:39:46.180 --> 13:39:52.180
And I hate that, because this is the window for the forward castle. Losing the army right now, we're getting a full map control.

13:39:52.180 --> 13:39:56.180
Pig has found his Imperialist button. He's one minute behind, Unforced, by the way.

13:39:56.180 --> 13:39:59.180
If he ends up losing, Juju and Imperialist push, he'll be kicking himself.

13:39:59.180 --> 13:40:23.320
I don't think Grubby knows about it. I think there's a captureage bug that they show the

13:40:23.320 --> 13:40:27.240
farms around the DZ. I actually don't think that Grubby knows about this. He's going to

13:40:27.240 --> 13:40:32.680
go for a forward outpost. He can make a townside in the front, sure. Not recognizing this castle

13:40:32.680 --> 13:40:38.600
position is really, really crucial. It's kind of keeping Pig in the game. Pig has a lot of army.

13:40:38.600 --> 13:40:42.360
He could use that army offensively right now. He could even consider his own forward castle,

13:40:42.360 --> 13:40:45.960
by the way. And Grubby is looking for something here. He's going for the hill.

13:40:47.560 --> 13:40:50.760
He's got a nice boom behind the sport you see now. The sportsman's coming up in the front.

13:40:50.760 --> 13:40:51.760
They run into that town center.

13:40:51.760 --> 13:40:52.760
Okay.

13:40:52.760 --> 13:40:53.760
Grubby's mispositioned again.

13:40:53.760 --> 13:40:54.760
Oh my God.

13:40:54.760 --> 13:40:55.760
Oh, oh.

13:40:55.760 --> 13:40:56.760
Grubby.

13:40:56.760 --> 13:40:57.760
Grubby.

13:40:57.760 --> 13:40:58.760
Whoa.

13:40:58.760 --> 13:40:59.760
Grubby.

13:40:59.760 --> 13:41:00.760
Grubby.

13:41:00.760 --> 13:41:02.760
Grubby, one of the four castles.

13:41:02.760 --> 13:41:03.760
You can't get this.

13:41:03.760 --> 13:41:04.760
This castle is illegal.

13:41:04.760 --> 13:41:06.760
Grubby, you can't get this castle.

13:41:06.760 --> 13:41:08.760
I think Grubby is throwing this game.

13:41:08.760 --> 13:41:12.760
Honestly, he's completely throwing it right now.

13:41:12.760 --> 13:41:17.760
I have to say, it's just they're fighting the fatigue right now.

13:41:17.760 --> 13:41:18.760
Yeah.

13:41:18.760 --> 13:41:19.760
That's what it has to be.

13:41:19.760 --> 13:41:23.000
We're clicking units everywhere. He pivoted through a defensive castle.

13:41:23.000 --> 13:41:24.500
Decent, decent.

13:41:24.500 --> 13:41:25.500
But yo, wait.

13:41:25.500 --> 13:41:26.600
I don't know. I think that's the rocket.

13:41:26.600 --> 13:41:27.260
God's gonna bomb.

13:41:27.260 --> 13:41:28.000
Not that one.

13:41:28.000 --> 13:41:29.000
The call from Peter.

13:41:29.000 --> 13:41:29.900
He's a stone.

13:41:29.900 --> 13:41:31.000
He takes the forward hill.

13:41:31.000 --> 13:41:32.000
He's a deeper, son.

13:41:32.000 --> 13:41:33.700
No, no, it's perfect. Don't go deeper.

13:41:33.700 --> 13:41:34.760
Don't go too deep.

13:41:34.760 --> 13:41:36.300
If you go too deep, you can't pull out.

13:41:36.300 --> 13:41:37.400
The amount of staying on the hill is not...

13:41:37.400 --> 13:41:39.100
Sarah, don't listen to me. Don't listen to me.

13:41:39.100 --> 13:41:41.100
He sees 2,000 meters higher than me.

13:41:41.100 --> 13:41:43.600
It's just fantastic. Castle on the hill is beautiful.

13:41:43.600 --> 13:41:44.860
Castle on the hill.

13:41:44.860 --> 13:41:46.900
Trebuchet's coming out. This is a perfect position.

13:41:46.900 --> 13:41:49.700
You don't need to go any deeper. This is completely fine.

13:41:49.700 --> 13:41:57.520
Alright, I feel like he could though, alright Fire Lancers it's time to get busy, what

13:41:57.520 --> 13:42:00.340
are you doing in the back conversing with the monks, get in there.

13:42:00.340 --> 13:42:05.700
Yeah Fire Lancers come on, come on Fire Lancers, we need the men in the front line, they're

13:42:05.700 --> 13:42:10.020
hiding in the back with the priests right now, Conscription coming out then Trebuchet

13:42:10.020 --> 13:42:14.700
production from Pig, Conscription is going to boost all the production speed of his buildings.

13:42:14.700 --> 13:42:19.220
Nothing scrubs, bro. They are just massaging these workers, bro. They did not see the worker die.

13:42:20.220 --> 13:42:21.820
That's just bullshit, man.

13:42:23.220 --> 13:42:26.180
It's an anti-archete, it's not an all-rounder.

13:42:27.460 --> 13:42:30.260
Uh, let's give it a go on the left side, doing okay there, but...

13:42:31.700 --> 13:42:32.340
Dude, hey.

13:42:32.340 --> 13:42:35.700
It's coming from the left side, when attacking a villager for 48 minutes, bro.

13:42:36.220 --> 13:42:39.940
Look at that HP. He's been attacking that one villager for 20 minutes.

13:42:40.140 --> 13:42:41.780
I don't think he's gonna ever kill him.

13:42:43.260 --> 13:42:43.860
Oh.

13:42:43.860 --> 13:42:45.860
Oh my god. Oh

13:42:47.300 --> 13:42:52.580
He got distracted you got distracted. Where the hell did he throw? Wait on some of this. There's one wasn't gonna stab in the bed

13:42:53.220 --> 13:42:55.500
Yeah, I think I think grab is not even watching this

13:42:55.500 --> 13:42:59.660
I think the only people watching this is me and you here motto and the 10,000 plus people we got watching

13:42:59.660 --> 13:43:02.460
That's it grabby ain't looking grabby's focused on bigger and better

13:43:02.460 --> 13:43:06.540
He's gonna get the two men saw upgrades to extra wood coming in in late game, but look at this guys

13:43:06.540 --> 13:43:11.300
It's two castle production of shrapash. Oh, that's Treb first trip is already down pigs in a fantastic position

13:43:11.300 --> 13:43:15.320
skirmisher philancer the perfect composition right now for the Chinese

13:43:15.320 --> 13:43:23.820
two castles and yet the hill extra damage oh my god turning into a

13:43:23.820 --> 13:43:27.820
stock of game it's turning into a stock of game bro no no no no no no grab

13:43:27.820 --> 13:43:31.460
we send a forward castle grab a sense of sneak I think it's worth it's there

13:43:31.460 --> 13:43:35.300
he's gonna spot everything no no no he's running he's running he's running

13:43:35.300 --> 13:43:39.860
he's running you can kill a guy too oh but the skirmisher movement already oh

13:43:39.860 --> 13:43:41.860
Oh my god. This could be terrible, actually.

13:43:41.860 --> 13:43:43.860
Only.

13:43:43.860 --> 13:43:48.860
These workers can just build the castle in front of these villagers, bro. They are done on the village, shit.

13:43:48.860 --> 13:43:54.860
You can just build the castle in the Scaraburtson. Scaraburtson is not a threat. You didn't kill a villager.

13:43:54.860 --> 13:43:56.860
Fair enough.

13:43:56.860 --> 13:44:00.860
That's fake, bro. That's CGI, bro. That's AI, bro.

13:44:03.860 --> 13:44:05.860
Here we go.

13:44:05.860 --> 13:44:10.860
Let's see if skirmishers are trying to hit these villagers, nothing a whole lot so far.

13:44:10.860 --> 13:44:12.860
Oh, they're making it rain.

13:44:14.860 --> 13:44:18.860
The fire lancer behind this, we'll check back in with these skirmishers, gonna quickly flash the left side.

13:44:18.860 --> 13:44:22.860
Some fire lancer raids about to be elite on the left, Pig is playing a great macro game.

13:44:22.860 --> 13:44:27.860
Castle goes down, he's got complete control of the center, Pig is in such a good position, the castle does go up.

13:44:27.860 --> 13:44:31.860
So, Yama, you're onto something here with these skirmishers. They're not the best unit at killing villagers.

13:44:31.860 --> 13:44:32.860
Let me tell you that much.

13:44:32.860 --> 13:44:36.280
Okay, we're looking at a leaking garrison up here.

13:44:37.780 --> 13:44:39.020
That's a defensive castle,

13:44:39.020 --> 13:44:40.740
but it also means that Gruby's gonna secure

13:44:40.740 --> 13:44:42.300
this very important gold.

13:44:42.300 --> 13:44:43.140
Yeah.

13:44:44.420 --> 13:44:45.260
It's got the hill there,

13:44:45.260 --> 13:44:46.100
you can start preparing as well.

13:44:46.100 --> 13:44:47.540
Got the fiery lance, it's coming.

13:44:47.540 --> 13:44:49.700
But the thing is, the thing is,

13:44:49.700 --> 13:44:51.540
Pig has a lot more army on the field.

13:44:51.540 --> 13:44:53.700
He's got skirmishers, he's got lancers,

13:44:53.700 --> 13:44:56.540
he's got 120 villagers, but even on the hill count,

13:44:56.540 --> 13:44:59.860
he's got that middle hill, four trebuchets,

13:44:59.860 --> 13:45:01.780
raining down onto Gruby's trebs.

13:45:01.780 --> 13:45:05.120
I feel like we might be headed into a Game 5, a Cinema Finals by the way.

13:45:05.120 --> 13:45:06.120
A Cinema Tournament.

13:45:06.120 --> 13:45:07.120
Look at the hits on the trebs.

13:45:07.120 --> 13:45:08.120
Look at the trebs.

13:45:08.120 --> 13:45:09.120
Will they fall?

13:45:09.120 --> 13:45:10.120
One more hit.

13:45:10.120 --> 13:45:11.120
Oh my god.

13:45:11.120 --> 13:45:13.820
That's RNG in Pig's favor.

13:45:13.820 --> 13:45:15.320
That's crazy RNG in Pig's favor.

13:45:15.320 --> 13:45:16.480
Hey, we're trebbin' the chat.

13:45:16.480 --> 13:45:17.760
We have an emote for that.

13:45:17.760 --> 13:45:19.520
We have an emote for that.

13:45:19.520 --> 13:45:20.520
No stone.

13:45:20.520 --> 13:45:21.520
He's got a bi-stone to repair.

13:45:21.520 --> 13:45:24.720
No matter what's the vibes here, man, what are we looking at here?

13:45:24.720 --> 13:45:26.680
We're looking at a Game 5?

13:45:26.680 --> 13:45:28.920
I'm just looking at the Wilco.

13:45:28.920 --> 13:45:34.200
I see a steady production from the Grubster in the village department.

13:45:34.640 --> 13:45:38.680
I'm looking at the resources that are being floated and I wonder if Grubby with the stone that he has,

13:45:38.680 --> 13:45:41.680
if he can slam a well-placed castle, maybe.

13:45:41.680 --> 13:45:43.760
But I think this Trebuchet counter is just too high, no?

13:45:43.920 --> 13:45:44.920
How do we deal with this?

13:45:45.320 --> 13:45:46.760
The pair's coming through last minute.

13:45:46.760 --> 13:45:47.640
Oh, isn't it enough?

13:45:47.640 --> 13:45:48.320
Is it enough Trebuchet?

13:45:48.320 --> 13:45:50.360
Oh, he's gonna hold it.

13:45:50.360 --> 13:45:51.640
That's crazy.

13:45:51.840 --> 13:45:53.200
And the Trebuchet's gonna go down.

13:45:53.200 --> 13:45:55.400
Look how big that Trebuchet is.

13:45:55.400 --> 13:45:56.200
Can you just hit it?

13:45:56.360 --> 13:45:56.880
It's easy.

13:45:56.880 --> 13:45:57.840
I can throw that spear.

13:45:57.840 --> 13:46:03.040
And it goes down. Oh my god. Oh my god. Grubby's dead. It's a game five Grubby's dead. It's a game five

13:46:03.040 --> 13:46:08.600
I can't believe it. He's trying. He's got some good harassment on the left side Grubby is so far behind right now though

13:46:08.600 --> 13:46:13.560
The Chinese are so unstoppable once they get going skirm fire lancer is such a good composition

13:46:13.560 --> 13:46:16.980
Well, the scrims in the front here. I bless cannot approach them should tell it's coming out

13:46:16.980 --> 13:46:21.920
But they're very squishy even into skirmishers. Shreveges on the right side for pig. He's doing so much work right now

13:46:21.920 --> 13:46:25.360
He's pushing on the front the hill was massive Grubby had a chance to castle it

13:46:25.360 --> 13:46:28.200
but he missed that opportunity and now it's all Pig!

13:46:30.040 --> 13:46:31.160
It's fully repaired.

13:46:31.760 --> 13:46:34.240
I think now if he just spreads and finds these, uh,

13:46:34.960 --> 13:46:38.560
these exposed workers, like, look at the exposure there on the workers there on the south,

13:46:38.600 --> 13:46:39.840
even on the west as well.

13:46:39.880 --> 13:46:42.200
He just needs to, a couple of filers to clean up.

13:46:43.800 --> 13:46:45.240
That's good damage, it's good damage.

13:46:45.360 --> 13:46:47.080
Good damage, good raids, nice try.

13:46:47.120 --> 13:46:48.640
Grubbershine, of course, stay in the game,

13:46:48.680 --> 13:46:51.160
but Pig has been playing so freaking well,

13:46:51.200 --> 13:46:52.920
especially since he clicked that Imperial aid button.

13:46:52.920 --> 13:46:56.680
was a little late that ever since that moment he's had his foot on the gas

13:46:56.680 --> 13:47:00.040
he's missing chemistry but got all the other important upgrades here

13:47:00.040 --> 13:47:03.720
Gravy's not holding though it's honestly still close I might have called it too early

13:47:03.720 --> 13:47:05.960
Gravy's kind of holding Pig lost a lot of Molensum

13:47:05.960 --> 13:47:06.520
No Treb

13:47:08.200 --> 13:47:12.680
No Bombards by the way for Chinese no Bombards there's one advantage for the Ethiopians it's

13:47:12.680 --> 13:47:16.120
the Bombard it's the hand cannon near me it's not hand cannon it's the gunpowder

13:47:16.120 --> 13:47:19.240
through the Bombard cannon like this castle goes down here

13:47:19.240 --> 13:47:21.820
Even full traps to kill that castle is very nice.

13:47:21.820 --> 13:47:22.320
Yep.

13:47:22.320 --> 13:47:22.820
Oh.

13:47:22.820 --> 13:47:26.320
There's not a single castle standing for Grubby.

13:47:26.320 --> 13:47:28.000
I know castles for Grubby.

13:47:28.000 --> 13:47:34.820
He can't create any infantry, so the army design for Piggy's is perfect still, no?

13:47:34.820 --> 13:47:35.320
Yeah.

13:47:35.320 --> 13:47:35.820
The mass comes.

13:47:35.820 --> 13:47:36.320
True.

13:47:36.320 --> 13:47:36.820
True.

13:47:36.820 --> 13:47:37.480
It gets so much value.

13:47:37.480 --> 13:47:41.520
And actually, Skirm Fire Launcher dies to Chateau, the unique unit from the Ethiopians.

13:47:41.520 --> 13:47:45.000
So in theory, Grubby can play towards that, but if missing castles, he's getting one at

13:47:45.000 --> 13:47:45.840
home right now.

13:47:45.840 --> 13:47:46.800
He can afford a second one.

13:47:46.800 --> 13:47:50.300
I'd like the second one back here, maybe even here, try to control some of these stones.

13:47:50.800 --> 13:47:55.600
Good ratings so far from Grubby, but Pig, getting chemistry, he's kind of walking in right now.

13:47:56.000 --> 13:48:01.000
Forward Lancer, taking out this Bombard Cannon. Good job in the Lancer, it's a value Lancer right there.

13:48:01.200 --> 13:48:04.400
Let's name this guy Yamato, bro. This guy's a freaking legend, honestly.

13:48:04.800 --> 13:48:07.000
Bro, that's Captain Fire Lancer.

13:48:07.300 --> 13:48:09.300
Yeah, I like that, I like that.

13:48:09.300 --> 13:48:11.200
We made it to the finals, bro.

13:48:11.500 --> 13:48:13.400
Shout out to Captain Lancer, he's still here.

13:48:13.400 --> 13:48:18.400
Uh, four of them coming in, now four grubbies trying to get Eshotel Transition started.

13:48:18.400 --> 13:48:19.400
He's got some gold.

13:48:19.400 --> 13:48:22.400
Yo, these trebs, these are donations, bro.

13:48:22.400 --> 13:48:23.400
Yeah.

13:48:23.400 --> 13:48:25.400
This is target practice for the crossbows.

13:48:25.400 --> 13:48:26.400
Yeah.

13:48:26.400 --> 13:48:28.400
See the engineers coming in here.

13:48:28.400 --> 13:48:32.400
Alright, Phylons is walking straight into this crossbow line.

13:48:32.400 --> 13:48:33.400
You gotta reorient yourself.

13:48:33.400 --> 13:48:36.400
The skirmishers need to go first.

13:48:36.400 --> 13:48:37.400
Yep.

13:48:37.400 --> 13:48:39.400
Phylons are so good.

13:48:39.400 --> 13:48:41.400
I just gotta walk this down.

13:48:41.400 --> 13:48:42.400
Just gotta walk this down.

13:48:42.400 --> 13:48:46.400
Bombard has to run. Bombard never runs. Oh my god, we just run from there.

13:48:46.400 --> 13:48:48.400
Oh, really? Bombard clout.

13:48:49.400 --> 13:48:52.400
You know the donation there? The bombard goes down and...

13:48:52.400 --> 13:48:54.400
Dude, Grubby's dropping the pop. 120 population.

13:48:54.400 --> 13:48:56.400
They look for a second he could hold.

13:48:56.400 --> 13:48:58.400
There's like 50 bilis.

13:48:58.400 --> 13:48:59.400
But...

13:48:59.400 --> 13:49:01.400
Dropping wood right there, bro. He's finding them.

13:49:01.400 --> 13:49:04.400
Yeah, this is terrible. Terrible news for the blue pair.

13:49:06.400 --> 13:49:10.400
Dude, Pig has been so impressive, though, in this Imperial Age

13:49:10.400 --> 13:49:14.500
And in the entire tournament so far like pig remember is the only guy undefeated

13:49:15.200 --> 13:49:20.320
Continues to fly through grubby's defenses grubby's in the back line now. Oh my god. Oh my god

13:49:23.840 --> 13:49:30.480
Game five sick the perfect finale the perfect tournament like to have running in here plus two armor

13:49:31.120 --> 13:49:37.500
Horses coming look at everything's exposed pig. I said a target this pig with the raids 170 pot for pig

13:49:37.500 --> 13:49:42.980
Canon still is not being the trap. Okay, we're trying to hold as best as we can. I can't believe it

13:49:44.900 --> 13:49:46.900
Chips is still coming through

13:49:47.980 --> 13:49:52.220
Kind of want to see the the infantry units, but I think I think it's just on like like

13:49:52.660 --> 13:49:59.420
He doesn't have the resources. Yeah grubby's gold. Yeah, no gold. Yeah, the first time pig actually collected relics

13:49:59.540 --> 13:50:03.460
Yeah, only three relics for big two relics for grubby

13:50:03.460 --> 13:50:09.220
And normally it's grubby with all of them so grubby kind of being forced to play with some limited gold access in the late game

13:50:09.540 --> 13:50:14.740
Zero on gold zero on stone take a look at that 16 on gold for pig nine on stone

13:50:14.740 --> 13:50:17.700
He's still got tons of minerals coming in for the Chinese player here

13:50:19.020 --> 13:50:23.020
Like have could use that last armor, but overall a great transition into the light cab

13:50:23.020 --> 13:50:26.520
I would like to see some chukinu. Maybe actually it's a decent transition here

13:50:26.520 --> 13:50:33.140
Yeah, you have the cool upgrades the braces. Yeah, you got the you got all the tech from university as well

13:50:33.460 --> 13:50:40.500
some chukunus bro yeah it would be it would be kind of insane armors coming in now like

13:50:40.500 --> 13:50:45.060
kept diving deep a lot of castles set up like three castles still up for pig that's gonna

13:50:45.060 --> 13:50:49.060
be really good to control the the map in the mid and late game here he's got two more castles

13:50:49.060 --> 13:50:54.500
castle here would be fantastic for the red player bombarts coming in i'll ask her coming up tell me

13:50:54.500 --> 13:50:58.500
Oh, I'm waiting. It's all net.

13:50:58.500 --> 13:51:02.500
The devil shares. Wait, he's leading the damage.

13:51:02.500 --> 13:51:06.500
One down. One down.

13:51:06.500 --> 13:51:10.500
He's just mercy.

13:51:10.500 --> 13:51:14.500
I hope you're going to go down. Alpha's going down, but no big deal.

13:51:14.500 --> 13:51:18.500
Talk to me about it. I had a question for me, brother.

13:51:18.500 --> 13:51:22.500
There's just these two horses that are just bothering me. What is the purpose of these two horses?

13:51:22.500 --> 13:51:27.300
these two horses which one on the right side they just move camera right these two dudes

13:51:29.060 --> 13:51:33.380
they do nothing what are they doing they tell you where your opponent is not in the early game

13:51:33.380 --> 13:51:37.460
it's kind of like a nice detail but they're kind of just showing wild horses yeah

13:51:39.300 --> 13:51:44.740
okay they don't give food nothing no nothing bro meat meat is meat but not this meat you know

13:51:45.780 --> 13:51:48.740
no gold you can't recruit them to get like cheaper scouts or something

13:51:48.740 --> 13:51:53.580
You can't recruit a wild horse, you can't just talk to it, no.

13:51:53.580 --> 13:51:57.980
You can convince it to fight for you maybe, but not in this game.

13:51:57.980 --> 13:52:00.580
Oh guys, it's 90 pot for Grubby.

13:52:00.580 --> 13:52:04.620
Actually Pig is all over him right now, four castles coming through, two defensive castles

13:52:04.620 --> 13:52:09.020
on one side for Grubby, but I don't think it's enough, I think Pig has done it.

13:52:09.020 --> 13:52:11.100
Pig got the last armor on the light cab.

13:52:11.100 --> 13:52:13.100
Yep, no growth for Grubby.

13:52:13.100 --> 13:52:18.300
Look how rich Pig is, he's basically taunting him.

13:52:18.300 --> 13:52:19.620
We're gonna go into a game five.

13:52:19.620 --> 13:52:20.740
I can't believe it.

13:52:20.740 --> 13:52:22.740
Wow, Gigi in the chat.

13:52:22.740 --> 13:52:23.580
Hey, he's bro.

13:52:23.580 --> 13:52:25.380
Hey, he closes.

13:52:25.380 --> 13:52:26.780
It's two, two.

13:52:26.780 --> 13:52:28.860
And we're going through Grubby's home map.

13:52:28.860 --> 13:52:31.540
It's literally the best case scenario for finals.

13:52:31.540 --> 13:52:34.540
These are the two best players to determine here.

13:52:34.540 --> 13:52:36.540
Pig is undefeated so far.

13:52:36.540 --> 13:52:38.260
He won the last match of three, two.

13:52:38.260 --> 13:52:40.380
Grubby might be playing some PTSD right now,

13:52:40.380 --> 13:52:42.540
but Grubby's got the home map advantage.

13:52:42.540 --> 13:52:43.740
Grubby's improved a lot.

13:52:43.740 --> 13:52:45.700
He still has the Burgundians on arena.

13:52:45.700 --> 13:52:47.340
I think we're gonna see Burgundians

13:52:47.340 --> 13:52:53.820
Bohemians on Arena for a Cinema Game 5. It's going to be so absolutely so epic because that's

13:52:53.820 --> 13:52:58.620
their both most played Civ on Arena and that's a meta matchup. That's exactly what we see in Pro

13:52:58.620 --> 13:53:06.940
Play. Such a good game 5 for this tournament. We've seen the Cam figures getting massaged.

13:53:07.980 --> 13:53:13.660
That's the way. You know these two gentlemen like you know I'm on a freak schedule. I've been

13:53:13.660 --> 13:53:17.980
been awake since 9am. I played my tournament, you know, my little bit of

13:53:17.980 --> 13:53:23.260
riff-bond. I was chilling for me like it's 5am. My eyes are glue, but that's okay

13:53:23.260 --> 13:53:31.340
because I'm not competing. Yeah. You know, right now we have our boy Pig who had to

13:53:31.340 --> 13:53:38.740
wake up at like 11pm to play his first round and then wake, then somehow play

13:53:38.740 --> 13:53:47.060
and then stay awake and play two BO5s into start again at what like 9 a.m.

13:53:47.060 --> 13:53:54.140
they've got Grubby who is now on his what 16th H of Empire's match yeah starting

13:53:54.140 --> 13:53:58.420
at the 1 p.m. going through the lower bracket which is of course the advantage

13:53:58.420 --> 13:54:05.980
you know the advantage you get is who prefers to be warm or who prefers to be

13:54:05.980 --> 13:54:09.020
a little bit more rested with a little bit more information.

13:54:09.020 --> 13:54:10.820
It's also a common thing in league.

13:54:10.820 --> 13:54:13.340
It's like the teams that do the lower bracket runs,

13:54:13.340 --> 13:54:14.860
they gain like momentum,

13:54:14.860 --> 13:54:17.620
but sometimes the research and the prep

13:54:17.620 --> 13:54:21.060
just becomes a lot easier when you, of course,

13:54:22.060 --> 13:54:23.620
go through the upper bracket.

13:54:23.620 --> 13:54:25.700
Many, many dynamics at play.

13:54:26.580 --> 13:54:29.100
So many things are gonna kick in.

13:54:29.100 --> 13:54:33.020
And I wonder if both of these fine gentlemen

13:54:33.020 --> 13:54:37.160
I got to pop caffeine or something.

13:54:37.160 --> 13:54:40.500
Got to do some push-ups to get the blood going.

13:54:40.500 --> 13:54:43.060
Maybe they just sit calmly in their chair

13:54:43.060 --> 13:54:46.380
as they're preparing for the next strategy.

13:54:46.380 --> 13:54:47.660
Yeah, I haven't left chat.

13:54:47.660 --> 13:54:49.260
I'm just getting some stretches in actually.

13:54:49.260 --> 13:54:52.220
My thighs have, I've been sitting on my ass

13:54:52.220 --> 13:54:54.060
for the last like, I don't know,

13:54:54.060 --> 13:54:55.820
1,000 hours over the last few days.

13:54:55.820 --> 13:54:57.500
So I'm just getting some stretches in.

13:54:57.500 --> 13:54:59.220
I want to be high energy for this last game.

13:54:59.220 --> 13:55:02.820
And dude, I'm just, my muscles are giving way here.

13:55:04.820 --> 13:55:06.660
Holy, this is the dream, brother.

13:55:06.660 --> 13:55:07.500
This is the dream.

13:55:07.500 --> 13:55:09.300
I'm so excited.

13:55:09.300 --> 13:55:12.620
Bro, as we are approaching the final game,

13:55:12.620 --> 13:55:16.220
Hera, it's safe to say what a damn success

13:55:16.220 --> 13:55:17.660
the Stonem has been, bro.

13:55:17.660 --> 13:55:19.020
What a damn success.

13:55:21.740 --> 13:55:25.180
Everyone jokingly says rigged for Grubby and here we are.

13:55:25.180 --> 13:55:27.700
Grubby about to fighting his nemesis

13:55:27.700 --> 13:55:29.800
that he already lost against once, you know,

13:55:29.800 --> 13:55:32.860
and fighting so many different odds,

13:55:32.860 --> 13:55:35.860
working his ass off to play against Pig.

13:55:35.860 --> 13:55:36.700
Yeah.

13:55:36.700 --> 13:55:39.940
For now, gets, of course, the choice, right?

13:55:39.940 --> 13:55:42.420
He gets to choose where we're going.

13:55:42.420 --> 13:55:43.460
Grabby gets to choose.

13:55:43.460 --> 13:55:44.700
Grabby gets to choose.

13:55:45.860 --> 13:55:49.420
A rabie arena, because you lost the last game, right?

13:55:49.420 --> 13:55:52.820
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I forgot, I forgot, yeah, yeah.

13:55:52.820 --> 13:55:53.660
Let's take a quick moment here.

13:55:53.660 --> 13:55:54.500
Okay, okay.

13:55:54.500 --> 13:55:55.700
Just to thank Rod for the five gifted

13:55:55.700 --> 13:55:57.300
and Ekiris for the five gifted as well.

13:55:57.300 --> 13:56:00.100
I'm going to quickly use the washroom Yamato and attend the audience here.

13:56:00.100 --> 13:56:01.900
Thank you so much for tuning in guys and for watching.

13:56:01.900 --> 13:56:03.700
It's the last game of the tournament to game five.

13:56:04.000 --> 13:56:05.900
I'll be right back and we'll get started with the cast very soon.

13:56:08.500 --> 13:56:16.300
You know, everybody, the reason we love competition, the reason we love competition

13:56:17.400 --> 13:56:26.300
is that we are in positions to measure ourselves on even ground, on even ground.

13:56:27.300 --> 13:56:44.900
And especially in this moment as we head into the headliner, the fifth game, so far we cannot

13:56:44.900 --> 13:57:00.660
No. Because speaking of even ground, it is simply as even as it can be.

13:57:00.660 --> 13:57:10.460
Hera predicting the Burgundians, the Burger folk, and then he's predicting, of course,

13:57:10.460 --> 13:57:17.460
the Bohemian Rhapsody, for peak.

13:57:18.060 --> 13:57:21.500
Strategies clash

13:57:21.500 --> 13:57:23.740
as both players

13:57:23.740 --> 13:57:25.660
playing strategies

13:57:25.660 --> 13:57:27.180
they've taken wins with

13:57:27.180 --> 13:57:32.380
throughout the entire tournament.

13:57:32.380 --> 13:57:37.180
This will truly determine

13:57:37.180 --> 13:57:39.780
who is the best

13:57:39.780 --> 13:57:51.140
of all, all of the guys who are in this tournament. Because the key detail here is, the grandeur

13:57:51.140 --> 13:58:01.020
of this victory comes from dragging the soul and the blood and the tears of all of the

13:58:01.020 --> 13:58:08.020
the people that you defeated before you.

13:58:08.020 --> 13:58:11.020
They had Singh Singh who grinded his ass off.

13:58:11.020 --> 13:58:13.020
We had Wagamama with his infantry.

13:58:13.020 --> 13:58:19.020
We had Day 9 with his cavalry play and his late game scaling.

13:58:19.020 --> 13:58:22.020
We had your thermal and his missing villages.

13:58:22.020 --> 13:58:27.020
We had Death Note's king who was lost on the map.

13:58:27.020 --> 13:58:30.860
Mr. Llama will snipe the king with a treble shake.

13:58:30.860 --> 13:58:36.980
All of those moments, all of those things, me griefing two games and losing them.

13:58:36.980 --> 13:58:46.980
All the soul and the spirit and the effort is with behind these players in this moment.

13:58:46.980 --> 13:58:52.280
It's the only reason and the only reason this file is so damn hype

13:58:52.280 --> 13:58:57.280
because everyone else who failed to reach that climb,

13:58:58.200 --> 13:59:00.480
and it's not because people didn't try.

13:59:00.480 --> 13:59:01.920
Boy, did everybody try.

13:59:01.920 --> 13:59:03.320
Everybody was grinding.

13:59:04.520 --> 13:59:05.880
And now there's only two.

13:59:06.760 --> 13:59:09.360
Only a simple B1 to decide at all.

13:59:09.360 --> 13:59:13.040
5 a.m., 9 a.m., wherever you are, you better be awake.

13:59:14.320 --> 13:59:17.120
Because it's time for the final game, baby.

13:59:17.120 --> 13:59:19.080
And I'm thinking Hera's right with the prediction.

13:59:19.080 --> 13:59:20.280
He's been watching all these games.

13:59:20.280 --> 13:59:26.600
as a mad man he's been streaming 60 hours what a mad man it's Burgundians versus

13:59:26.600 --> 13:59:32.640
versus Bohemians on arena and if it's not I don't know what to say maybe I have

13:59:32.640 --> 13:59:39.160
to give some subs maybe it's like 50 gifted if it's not put a put an eyebrow

13:59:39.160 --> 13:59:44.000
on it what an eyebrow what a eyebrow

13:59:46.000 --> 13:59:49.320
what a eyebrow

13:59:50.280 --> 13:59:55.280
50 subs on your model channel. 50 subs on your channel.

13:59:55.280 --> 14:00:00.280
I'm blessed, I'm blessed, but you don't need to do that. I'd rather have an eyebrow.

14:00:00.280 --> 14:00:07.280
Bro, you can't shave my head so you can't take an eyebrow from me.

14:00:07.280 --> 14:00:12.280
Okay, let's see.

14:00:12.280 --> 14:00:17.280
An eyebrow for an eyebrow makes the whole world ugly.

14:00:17.280 --> 14:00:22.280
That is the exact saying Mr. Yamato.

14:00:22.280 --> 14:00:24.280
It's on zooship bro.

14:00:24.280 --> 14:00:28.280
It's on zooship man.

14:00:28.280 --> 14:00:37.280
Alright fine. 25 gifted to each pig and grubby if it's not Burgundians and the Behemians.

14:00:37.280 --> 14:00:39.280
25 gifted to each of them.

14:00:39.280 --> 14:00:41.280
I'm pretty certain it's gonna be that.

14:00:41.280 --> 14:00:45.280
I'm like 99% sure.

14:00:45.280 --> 14:00:51.600
So Andy Amato 25 and Andy models at 75 bro scammed butter 75

14:00:52.360 --> 14:00:56.000
So Ted Bundy versus Bohemia Rhapsody. Yeah

14:00:57.360 --> 14:00:59.360
We got it

14:01:00.880 --> 14:01:05.480
I'm pretty sure it's Burgundian Bohemians on arena. I'll see if I'm right. I

14:01:06.240 --> 14:01:08.960
Don't put my reputation on the line. You matter. That's that's I

14:01:09.440 --> 14:01:12.880
Don't know my reputation just be there for no reason. No, I think I understand the game

14:01:12.880 --> 14:01:16.880
I understand competition I understand how these players are thinking I put that in the line

14:01:16.880 --> 14:01:20.680
I can't just be like, oh, yeah, see this is first that I called it gotta call it first

14:01:20.680 --> 14:01:26.480
You know gotta go for glory dare to be there to be great. That's what they say. It's a great prediction

14:01:27.680 --> 14:01:31.160
Well, you're such a you're such a vibe play, you know, I always ask, you know

14:01:31.160 --> 14:01:37.480
I was asked what does this if do and I always need to like pull up the wiki bro. You don't give me any info, bro

14:01:37.480 --> 14:01:38.680
Yeah

14:01:38.680 --> 14:01:43.560
It's used to play over vibes. It's all vibes. I don't remember as a single number

14:01:44.560 --> 14:01:50.520
It's just like I feel like this is how it should be boom. That's how it is all vibes all vibes no builds

14:01:54.120 --> 14:01:57.360
Garby wants to win on Arabia, I don't think so. I don't think so

14:02:01.160 --> 14:02:04.980
Hey called grubby picking arena such a cheesy move. It's not cheesy. How is it cheesy?

14:02:04.980 --> 14:02:09.260
How is it cheesy to pick arena now, but it wasn't cheesy to pick arena earlier?

14:02:09.260 --> 14:02:12.300
Guys, just because it's the last game doesn't mean that there's anything

14:02:12.300 --> 14:02:15.420
different about picking arena now versus earlier. Grubby should pick the exact

14:02:15.420 --> 14:02:21.120
map that he wants to play. That's it. That's all it is. And I called arena

14:02:21.120 --> 14:02:25.420
Burgundians for Grubby when he picked Malay in the last arena, by the way.

14:02:25.420 --> 14:02:28.900
I think he showed his hand. I actually think it's very obvious that he will go

14:02:28.900 --> 14:02:33.420
Burgundians now. Very obvious. And a player of Grubby's caliber, he will never

14:02:33.420 --> 14:02:36.300
change his game plan away from

14:02:36.300 --> 14:02:40.500
Burgundians here. In my opinion, he will never. If he does that, he's going against

14:02:40.500 --> 14:02:45.420
a prime principle in being the favorite for a set unless he considers himself

14:02:45.420 --> 14:02:48.020
the underdog. But I don't think so. I think knowing Grubber, he considers himself

14:02:48.020 --> 14:02:51.140
the favorite and he will go with the Burgundians because it's a tried and

14:02:51.140 --> 14:02:54.660
tested. You don't do anything weird when you're the favorite. You do what you like

14:02:54.660 --> 14:02:59.020
to play. You play a comfort zone and you play with exactly what got you to the

14:02:59.020 --> 14:03:02.820
finals in the first place. Pig. I also don't think he really considers himself

14:03:02.820 --> 14:03:07.380
much of an underdog so I think he will go for his tried and tested bohemians and this is why I

14:03:07.380 --> 14:03:12.580
come to the conclusion that it'll be arena for gunvians for grubby and bohemians for pig and let's

14:03:12.580 --> 14:03:19.220
see if I'm right. The reason the game is delayed is because all streamers collectively agreed

14:03:19.220 --> 14:03:23.700
where just spam running ads before he starts. Actually let me get some ads actually that's a

14:03:23.700 --> 14:03:28.500
good point. The ads out of the way. Well the game starts it's a game five cinema I don't want the

14:03:28.500 --> 14:03:32.660
the ads coming in it's it's it started it started see from right i hope i'm right because i want to

14:03:32.660 --> 14:03:40.660
see that matchup regarding his bohemians honorina i called it from the start i'm so happy to see

14:03:40.660 --> 14:03:47.140
this matchup it's their best civilizations ladies and gentlemen we're hopping in to a game five and

14:03:47.140 --> 14:03:51.620
what has been the best tournament that i could have possibly asked for the king's gauntlet the

14:03:51.620 --> 14:03:56.820
final game get some energy in the chat here this is the matchup that i anticipated it's the matchup

14:03:56.820 --> 14:04:01.300
that is the best civilization for each of these players. Grubby is undefeated with the

14:04:01.300 --> 14:04:06.060
Burgundians. Pig has played a lot of Bohemians and it's been a very handy civilization for

14:04:06.060 --> 14:04:10.220
him. He's got a decent win rate in the tournament with the Bohemians on Arena, but he lost out

14:04:10.220 --> 14:04:14.900
to Grubby's Burgundians in the last time they faced. So this is a repeat matchup for the

14:04:14.900 --> 14:04:20.500
game five. Can Grubby win it again or will Pig change the storyline and win the grand

14:04:20.500 --> 14:04:24.440
finals with Bohemians? Yamato, talk to me about the situation, what this moment means

14:04:24.440 --> 14:04:27.200
for both of these players?

14:04:27.200 --> 14:04:31.000
Honestly, like the blood, sweat, and tears, man.

14:04:31.000 --> 14:04:32.600
It's like how many hours of age of members

14:04:32.600 --> 14:04:34.520
have these guys played, you know?

14:04:34.520 --> 14:04:35.520
I say tons.

14:04:35.520 --> 14:04:38.640
You got to enjoy this moment because the feeling of emptiness

14:04:38.640 --> 14:04:41.960
afterwards, regardless of the result, is strange, you know?

14:04:41.960 --> 14:04:46.160
Like, they have formed a bond with this game

14:04:46.160 --> 14:04:49.040
that is going to be pulling at them.

14:04:49.040 --> 14:04:51.400
Because you and me, we can talk from experience,

14:04:51.400 --> 14:04:54.120
but one of three poolers are still this day, you know?

14:04:54.120 --> 14:04:59.880
like it pulls us because we associate all of those strong emotions.

14:04:59.880 --> 14:05:01.600
Because it's not necessarily only good emotions.

14:05:01.600 --> 14:05:05.560
All the good and the bad just makes the experience so damn powerful.

14:05:07.120 --> 14:05:09.720
It's all about just living in the moment.

14:05:09.880 --> 14:05:13.240
You know, as cliche as it sounds, there's a lot of truth to it too.

14:05:13.440 --> 14:05:13.720
Yeah.

14:05:13.880 --> 14:05:19.400
So I hope mentally they slow down time and really enjoy this because these are

14:05:19.480 --> 14:05:23.800
memories for a lifetime, even for us viewers, bro, even for you and me, bro.

14:05:24.120 --> 14:05:28.880
I'm not gonna forget this moment, but we're watching a game fucking 5 at 5 a.m. Well

14:05:30.000 --> 14:05:32.000
Fantastic, I couldn't have said it better myself

14:05:32.040 --> 14:05:35.280
Such a big moment with both these players and remember for the winner

14:05:35.280 --> 14:05:41.060
This will mean that all that work they put in all those hours comes to the ultimate prize of being the champion

14:05:41.200 --> 14:05:44.880
Proving to the world that he could pick up a game like age of Empire stew and you know

14:05:44.880 --> 14:05:47.040
Obviously grubby and big both have played it in the past

14:05:47.040 --> 14:05:51.600
But to re-pick it up and to push yourself over the last three weeks get the heights and healers

14:05:51.600 --> 14:05:56.360
you've never been in and to win a tournament against fellow streamers of which many have

14:05:56.360 --> 14:06:00.400
tried and many have failed and these are the final two in the last game to win this tournament

14:06:00.400 --> 14:06:05.560
would mean a lot for the winner but also because of how sour it could be to get that you know

14:06:05.560 --> 14:06:10.800
so close that gets so far be so many people to get here and then lose in the last game

14:06:10.800 --> 14:06:15.160
that bitter feeling that it could leave in your mouth is why the feeling of winning feels

14:06:15.160 --> 14:06:19.880
so good because winning and losing is decided by only one game now all of the other games

14:06:19.880 --> 14:06:23.320
don't really matter. It's all about this one and their difference is monumental.

14:06:23.320 --> 14:06:27.600
But honestly, regardless of what happened, as cheesy as it sounds, both these players

14:06:27.600 --> 14:06:31.200
are absolute champions. Grubby and Pig have went above and beyond all

14:06:31.200 --> 14:06:34.640
expectations, despite having a lot of expectations, especially on Grubby

14:06:34.640 --> 14:06:39.280
himself, but both Pig and Grubby came in as captains. And in my opinion, they've

14:06:39.280 --> 14:06:43.720
surpassed all expectations. They're both without a doubt champions and fantastic

14:06:43.720 --> 14:06:46.840
competitors in this event. But of course, there could be only one winner of the

14:06:46.840 --> 14:06:50.140
King's gauntlets and it's gonna be decided by this epic matchup on arena.

14:06:50.140 --> 14:06:53.340
Grubby's home map has got a little momentum going into this one. He's

14:06:53.340 --> 14:06:57.580
playing his undefeated Burgundians. Is this the time for Grubby to show us why

14:06:57.580 --> 14:07:00.740
the Burgundians are undefeated? Or does Pig have something special to count to

14:07:00.740 --> 14:07:07.060
the Burgundians one time and the only time that it matters? There's no way Pig

14:07:07.060 --> 14:07:12.220
is going to castle drop right and sending the buses. That's not happening.

14:07:12.220 --> 14:07:18.540
there is a way so it could but it's unlikely it's very unlikely right so so what do what

14:07:18.540 --> 14:07:23.340
do the beginnings of the just try to get a fast imperial to abuse the the hoof nice or whatever

14:07:23.340 --> 14:07:29.980
the cold yeah so the upgraded bomb by the bomb at the cannons this is where you'll be nice line of

14:07:29.980 --> 14:07:34.140
like perfectly synchronized rabbits we're giving all these speeches and then this is what we're

14:07:34.140 --> 14:07:38.460
seeing in the game it's just the funniest thing you've ever seen just like a lot of give them a

14:07:38.460 --> 14:07:40.020
Give them a beat, give them a beat.

14:07:40.020 --> 14:07:40.860
No, that's you, bro.

14:07:40.860 --> 14:07:44.060
Oons, oons, oons, oons, oons.

14:07:44.060 --> 14:07:46.660
I can't, oons when they're dying, bro.

14:07:46.660 --> 14:07:48.620
You're a fan, bro.

14:07:48.620 --> 14:07:50.140
It's a disaster.

14:07:50.140 --> 14:07:52.700
Again, eight under the town center right now.

14:07:52.700 --> 14:07:54.260
Terrible situation for the rabbits,

14:07:54.260 --> 14:07:55.940
but a great situation for Pig

14:07:55.940 --> 14:07:57.580
as he's gonna be feasting very nicely

14:07:57.580 --> 14:07:59.700
on all of those rabbits.

14:07:59.700 --> 14:08:01.060
Of course, we're gonna see Grubby kind of

14:08:01.060 --> 14:08:04.220
try to set up the same little bit of a rabbit funnel.

14:08:04.220 --> 14:08:05.220
A cage.

14:08:05.220 --> 14:08:06.340
Yeah, a little bit of a cage.

14:08:06.340 --> 14:08:07.180
Just a little too.

14:08:07.180 --> 14:08:08.300
No funnel.

14:08:08.300 --> 14:08:09.640
straight into the town center.

14:08:11.800 --> 14:08:14.320
But yeah, you know, talking about Bohemians

14:08:14.320 --> 14:08:15.960
and what they can, you know, what they can expect here,

14:08:15.960 --> 14:08:19.160
what they can go for, what we've seen Pig go for

14:08:19.160 --> 14:08:21.400
and what we've seen him kind of lean on heavily

14:08:21.400 --> 14:08:23.080
is the Castor Drop at home.

14:08:23.080 --> 14:08:25.320
Castor Drop at home, wagons to control the map,

14:08:25.320 --> 14:08:26.840
pick up some relics using those wagons

14:08:26.840 --> 14:08:30.080
and a couple of monks, play defensive, boom after that

14:08:30.080 --> 14:08:31.240
and then go for that late game.

14:08:31.240 --> 14:08:33.800
The Huffies, the Halberdier and the Henkin and Nier,

14:08:33.800 --> 14:08:35.240
that's the best combo he can get to

14:08:35.240 --> 14:08:37.160
and he loves to play towards that.

14:08:37.160 --> 14:08:42.120
Grubby, we've seen him play tons and tons of scouts, you know, light cap, relic control.

14:08:42.120 --> 14:08:46.000
He loves to go for those relics, and I don't think he's gonna deviate from that game plan

14:08:46.000 --> 14:08:50.000
right now, so let's see if Grubby can make this happen.

14:08:50.000 --> 14:08:51.500
I think he needs to make a couple more villagers, though.

14:08:51.500 --> 14:08:53.040
I think he's going a little too early.

14:08:53.040 --> 14:08:55.080
He's messed up the funnel, I think.

14:08:55.080 --> 14:08:57.120
Or has he?

14:08:57.120 --> 14:09:00.560
I'm not sure, actually.

14:09:00.560 --> 14:09:02.280
He's making another villager, this is good.

14:09:02.280 --> 14:09:04.280
Don't want to go up too early

14:09:07.800 --> 14:09:10.720
Rabbit's coming in here the good funnel from Ravi

14:09:14.160 --> 14:09:15.760
So so

14:09:15.760 --> 14:09:20.680
Remind me Burgundians have the upgrades of getting gold from the farms. Yeah

14:09:21.640 --> 14:09:24.160
What else they got do they have going on for them?

14:09:24.520 --> 14:09:29.720
Well, okay, the Flemish military is a real yeah, I'm just real not really in this matchup though

14:09:29.720 --> 14:09:34.440
What we're really looking at here for the brigundians is the fact that they get cheaper economy upgrades

14:09:34.440 --> 14:09:36.380
Okay, that's a big deal cheaper kind of upgrades

14:09:36.480 --> 14:09:40.900
The other bonus that's very relevant is the fact that they can get the relics in and get the regular gold

14:09:40.900 --> 14:09:47.720
But then they also get 20 food per minute per relic just for context a regular relic gives you 30 gold per minute

14:09:47.720 --> 14:09:51.200
So getting a little bit of extra food per relic is a really good bonus

14:09:51.200 --> 14:09:56.080
So we're going to get four or five relics. They're in a great position to control the game to get a lot of extra res

14:09:56.080 --> 14:10:00.100
Um, I see big with the market blacksmith. He's gonna go for a very fast

14:10:00.480 --> 14:10:05.520
Wait, she's gonna go on stone the stone. Hey, he's doing it forward castle

14:10:05.520 --> 14:10:11.560
But this is his bill to go defensive castle. You think it's a forward already. No, it's defensive. He's not getting loom

14:10:12.160 --> 14:10:13.600
Yeah

14:10:13.600 --> 14:10:19.000
I got baited in a pass set. I thought it was also gonna castle rush, but I think he's gonna play his game

14:10:19.000 --> 14:10:23.640
He's gonna play defensive. I kind of like that. No cheese. It's a clean game. You know, it's gonna sell 200 stone

14:10:23.640 --> 14:10:28.360
He's going to sell another 100 stone by the food and he'll be up.

14:10:28.360 --> 14:10:30.840
It's a clean game from both sides.

14:10:30.840 --> 14:10:32.440
No loo means he's not castle rushing.

14:10:32.440 --> 14:10:36.760
Oh, actually this is bad for Gaby.

14:10:36.760 --> 14:10:39.640
Gaby's going to lose his scouts.

14:10:39.640 --> 14:10:42.880
Yamato, Gaby's going to lose his scouts if there's ever a time to forward castle now.

14:10:42.880 --> 14:10:43.880
Oh my god.

14:10:43.880 --> 14:10:44.880
Whoa.

14:10:44.880 --> 14:10:46.200
He can forward castle now.

14:10:46.200 --> 14:10:47.800
If you make that adaptation.

14:10:47.800 --> 14:10:50.760
Do you remember the castle timer that he had?

14:10:50.760 --> 14:10:53.520
Because this is an insanely early castle time.

14:10:53.520 --> 14:10:56.860
This is standard for Pig, but I think it's way faster than Begunians.

14:10:56.860 --> 14:10:59.240
Like he's more and still darker, and he knows this.

14:10:59.240 --> 14:11:00.960
He knows this.

14:11:00.960 --> 14:11:02.880
I think he can go for a forward cast if he wants to.

14:11:02.880 --> 14:11:05.080
I just don't think he wants to take that risk.

14:11:05.080 --> 14:11:06.400
He's not that kind of player.

14:11:06.400 --> 14:11:07.720
He wants to play his style.

14:11:07.720 --> 14:11:11.280
He'll live, he'll live by the sword and die by the sword.

14:11:11.280 --> 14:11:12.880
He's gonna play his strategy to the end.

14:11:12.880 --> 14:11:15.400
I don't think he's gonna pivot and try something cheesy here.

14:11:15.400 --> 14:11:16.880
He'll play honorable, I believe.

14:11:16.880 --> 14:11:19.760
Does he have a loom?

14:11:19.760 --> 14:11:20.760
No loom.

14:11:20.760 --> 14:11:23.000
So going forward is really risky.

14:11:23.000 --> 14:11:25.840
He's gonna stay at home, he's playing it from home.

14:11:25.840 --> 14:11:28.440
Yeah, this is a homey one, yeah, for sure.

14:11:29.360 --> 14:11:31.520
It's usually the time to get loom on arena,

14:11:31.520 --> 14:11:34.520
is just while you're building the marketplace and stables,

14:11:34.520 --> 14:11:37.760
you can squeeze one village at a time and loom.

14:11:37.760 --> 14:11:38.920
That's perfectly timed.

14:11:39.800 --> 14:11:41.000
Absolutely. It's very safe.

14:11:42.000 --> 14:11:45.760
We're gonna see the Gundins here going up to the stable,

14:11:45.760 --> 14:11:47.000
a little bit of idle TC time.

14:11:47.000 --> 14:11:49.200
That's because we only built the stable with one villager.

14:11:49.200 --> 14:11:50.480
Grabby recognizes his mistake,

14:11:50.480 --> 14:11:52.440
but yeah, a little bit of idle time there for Grabby,

14:11:52.440 --> 14:11:55.720
And he lost a scout, so honestly not a good start for Grubby by any means here.

14:11:55.720 --> 14:11:58.400
I feel like, advantage Pig in this early game.

14:11:58.400 --> 14:12:02.120
Pig's start hasn't been the cleanest, but it hasn't been bad.

14:12:02.120 --> 14:12:06.080
He's kept the scout alive and dude Grubby's got no vision and we know how much Grubby

14:12:06.080 --> 14:12:07.160
loves his vision.

14:12:07.160 --> 14:12:10.760
The thing is he kind of knows what Pig likes to go for here, he likes to go for the defensive

14:12:10.760 --> 14:12:15.200
castle, so Grubby kind of is maybe internalizing this already, he doesn't have to worry too

14:12:15.200 --> 14:12:16.200
much about it.

14:12:16.200 --> 14:12:20.120
It's going to be a defensive castle probably inside the walls here, nothing too crazy from

14:12:20.120 --> 14:12:21.120
Pig.

14:12:21.120 --> 14:12:28.860
I have to say though, I think PIG's base design is quite strange.

14:12:28.860 --> 14:12:33.860
Usually you see a lot of the buildings in the front, I've seen cases where you hide

14:12:33.860 --> 14:12:37.700
the marketplace in the stables if you just want to hide how fast you go castles, you

14:12:37.700 --> 14:12:39.660
don't put it close.

14:12:39.660 --> 14:12:44.700
But there is some exposure here that could maybe be a problem in the future because usually

14:12:44.700 --> 14:12:49.100
you create like a line, like a second wall line right where all your buildings, especially

14:12:49.100 --> 14:12:53.060
these sturdier buildings, but this is just, you know, open fields.

14:12:53.260 --> 14:12:57.020
Yeah, the reason why he's not walling is that he's the guy with the castle, right?

14:12:57.100 --> 14:13:00.540
If you don't have the castle, you have to do that building wall because like,

14:13:00.620 --> 14:13:04.660
Yamato, sorry, Grubby, excuse me, can be a bit scared of like some pressure

14:13:04.660 --> 14:13:06.060
coming in without that defensive castle.

14:13:06.060 --> 14:13:07.420
He needs that layer of walls.

14:13:07.700 --> 14:13:10.540
But big, even if you come into his base, he's got a castle, he's fine.

14:13:10.580 --> 14:13:12.260
So that's why he doesn't really need those walls.

14:13:12.260 --> 14:13:12.820
And he's fine.

14:13:12.820 --> 14:13:15.860
Just grabbing that castle and being safe on defense.

14:13:15.860 --> 14:13:21.920
Maybe it's only relevant to how I like to play the game, but this castle doesn't defend

14:13:21.920 --> 14:13:22.920
shit.

14:13:22.920 --> 14:13:25.260
We're on viewing, you know?

14:13:25.260 --> 14:13:30.260
This is in the corner, I see that upper side, completely.

14:13:30.260 --> 14:13:32.780
Yeah, I mean, you have a point, actually.

14:13:32.780 --> 14:13:36.820
I think making it a little further back gives you actually better defense, but this kind

14:13:36.820 --> 14:13:37.980
of gives you better offense.

14:13:37.980 --> 14:13:42.540
Like, Castle doesn't like Robbie kind of make outposts here, denying outpost vision, could

14:13:42.540 --> 14:13:43.540
be interesting.

14:13:43.540 --> 14:13:47.020
the sides all of a sudden you can cut him off kind of gives you better offense

14:13:47.020 --> 14:13:50.580
we're talking a bit more high-level play there a little scout trade off by the

14:13:50.580 --> 14:13:54.220
way pig dives in kills a scout he'll be happy with that because this couch maybe

14:13:54.220 --> 14:13:57.540
not the most useful he's got the set wagons on the field anyways three TC's

14:13:57.540 --> 14:14:01.540
for grubby he's playing the standard light cap three TC set up with the

14:14:01.540 --> 14:14:07.140
monasteries and to go out for the monks and the relics and pig is staying on the

14:14:07.140 --> 14:14:10.540
one base for now the one TC play for him looking to get those wagons out and

14:14:10.540 --> 14:14:17.540
defend his monks. The Grubby is lurking, he's got the Light Cav.

14:14:18.340 --> 14:14:19.340
Got the bosses.

14:14:19.340 --> 14:14:22.940
Yeah, Ferver's nice, it helps the monks move faster, it also helps the villagers move faster

14:14:22.940 --> 14:14:27.260
for the Behemons only. So really nice little bonus there. Both players playing the Civilizations

14:14:27.260 --> 14:14:31.100
beautifully so far. They're playing through their shranks and it'll be normal for Grubby

14:14:31.100 --> 14:14:35.980
to pull ahead now in the Village Account and Economic, you know, Rests collected and whatnot.

14:14:35.980 --> 14:14:39.260
But the Behemons have the better late game. So even if we're going to pull a little bit

14:14:39.260 --> 14:14:44.620
head he'll be fine good snipe from grubby though it gets in snipe some monk can he get out he gets

14:14:44.620 --> 14:14:50.220
out that's a free monk grubby is kind of cooking right now he can heal up as like if he wants to

14:14:50.220 --> 14:14:55.340
or he can just prioritize picking up relics if we're going to get two relics here he's happy

14:14:55.340 --> 14:15:01.100
if you can get three he's very happy if he gets four or five he's elated he is super duper happy

14:15:01.100 --> 14:15:04.540
let's see what happens for grubby he picks up one right now it's fantastic for him

14:15:04.540 --> 14:15:10.700
Of course Pig doing okay as well. Pick up a roll. Is he an idle longer from the Relic or did he click it early?

14:15:10.700 --> 14:15:12.700
I picked it up.

14:15:12.700 --> 14:15:14.700
Oh, that's a unit on the top. No, on the right.

14:15:14.700 --> 14:15:16.700
Oh, Militia.

14:15:16.700 --> 14:15:21.620
We've got a couple of sight wagons on the field here. We'll secure the one monk and bring him back that Relic.

14:15:21.900 --> 14:15:25.580
Now it's all about the fight for these two middle ones. This one up here, I think Grubby just takes it.

14:15:25.580 --> 14:15:28.960
So Grubby's gonna get minimum two. He's always gonna be happy in this game.

14:15:30.100 --> 14:15:32.520
Gotta be careful though, just like you have a kind of week.

14:15:32.520 --> 14:15:37.980
Grubby's got a nice build here. Husband is coming in. 3TC boom is fantastic, but keep

14:15:37.980 --> 14:15:43.040
in mind that Pig is also going for the 3TC boom a little later, a little bit worse for

14:15:43.040 --> 14:15:47.960
where in terms of his economy upgrades as well, but he's still in a great position to get

14:15:47.960 --> 14:15:48.960
up his economy.

14:15:48.960 --> 14:15:59.120
I need to ask her. I think if you put so many buildings on stone to build a castle and then

14:15:59.120 --> 14:16:06.160
not to cause any form of damage and have even map control. I feel like you're so far behind.

14:16:07.040 --> 14:16:12.400
It's a good point. That's why I really don't like the defensive castle. I think a defensive castle,

14:16:12.400 --> 14:16:16.880
if you know the enemy already is pushing knights and you have information, okay, then you can place

14:16:16.880 --> 14:16:21.600
another offensive castle, but I feel like you need to do damage. Yeah. Now you have these buses

14:16:21.600 --> 14:16:27.440
driving around, you know, just moving people from bus stop to bus stop. Okay, he's getting some kills.

14:16:27.440 --> 14:16:33.940
It's not too bad. We'll talk about what you're talking about here in a second Yamato, but I want to see if Pig can stop this Relic.

14:16:33.940 --> 14:16:38.440
I don't think he knows about it. He might chase. We'll see if the bus can catch the stop in time.

14:16:38.440 --> 14:16:44.440
I think the monk might just be making a way with that Relic, but to your point Yamato, I think you're kind of spot on.

14:16:44.440 --> 14:16:47.440
I think if we get to commit to that castle, it's not only that-

14:16:47.440 --> 14:16:48.440
We have to do damage, no?

14:16:48.440 --> 14:16:54.440
We have to do damage, or we have to do something. We have to take all the Relics, but to make the castle, and to get only two Relics,

14:16:54.440 --> 14:17:01.040
relics versus the guy who's just making a stable in a few lightcaps, I feel like that's very bad for pig in the early game.

14:17:01.040 --> 14:17:07.800
So now he's he's behind like eight bills for kind of nothing, you know, and the rest collected is flying ahead for grubby.

14:17:07.800 --> 14:17:09.800
So I kind of agree with you.

14:17:09.800 --> 14:17:15.400
I would like to see a forward castle play from the Behemence forward castle even without an all in like forward castle. Take the relics.

14:17:15.400 --> 14:17:18.160
It's not a bad strategy. Here we go with the light cap. You're not out.

14:17:18.160 --> 14:17:24.080
We've got fully healed like half from grubby. They're going pretty well. He's the optimism my neighbor and against the buses. Oh

14:17:25.440 --> 14:17:27.440
He's dodging with the monks, dude

14:17:28.680 --> 14:17:30.240
He's gonna heal

14:17:30.240 --> 14:17:37.540
Dude, this is pristine micro from grubby. So so good two buses down for free. It's all grubby in this early game

14:17:40.120 --> 14:17:44.240
And this this just seems so comfortable for grubby, I was talking about it earlier

14:17:44.240 --> 14:17:51.880
were leaning into a situation, Grubby is comfortable, I think is not the way, but

14:17:51.880 --> 14:17:55.920
Grubby also made a very smart choice, a very bold choice of keeping the

14:17:55.920 --> 14:18:00.480
Burgundians up until of course he would lose another one and had to choose

14:18:00.480 --> 14:18:06.520
arena again. Yeah, again it's Grubby's home map, like Pig, I think the only

14:18:06.520 --> 14:18:09.160
adaptation he could have made, he had to play the Behemence, he knows the sit-in

14:18:09.160 --> 14:18:12.000
set-out, the only adaptation he could have made is that forward castle. He

14:18:12.000 --> 14:18:16.280
chose not to. It's a conscious choice to be like, listen, I know Grubby BB last time

14:18:16.280 --> 14:18:21.000
during the strategy, but I think that I can play better this time and potentially get

14:18:21.000 --> 14:18:26.240
that win. But look at Grubby's resources. He's flying with the boom. Real girl coming

14:18:26.240 --> 14:18:30.880
in. He just needs a university and he can go up to Imperial Edge very soon. Dude, he's

14:18:30.880 --> 14:18:33.160
flying ahead in terms of economy right now.

14:18:33.160 --> 14:18:39.680
Alright, I forgot. I always think that you need to build a castle to go in burial.

14:18:39.680 --> 14:18:45.020
You can also get two buildings. You might go for a castle here though, but I would like to see the university anyways.

14:18:45.020 --> 14:18:46.820
Like, university is needed for chemistry.

14:18:46.820 --> 14:18:51.240
By the way, don't get me wrong, Grubby is ahead. This game is far from over.

14:18:51.240 --> 14:18:56.740
Remember that the Bohemians have the better late game. It's widely recognized that they have a better late game than the Burgundians.

14:18:56.740 --> 14:19:02.840
So if Push comes to shove and Pig can get some pure ledge, get to his late game, he can easily still win this game.

14:19:02.840 --> 14:19:06.040
But Grubby's got the timing advantage and Grubby gets first to move onto the map.

14:19:06.040 --> 14:19:09.140
University being rushed down. I think he wants that university and

14:19:09.820 --> 14:19:13.480
Yeah, I'm here. It's not coming in for grubby handcraft would be nice to see

14:19:16.300 --> 14:19:22.900
Now the grubbies with a demon with these where he like masks his tech with a offensive push. Yes

14:19:24.420 --> 14:19:26.420
Really really like what he does those

14:19:26.780 --> 14:19:32.540
Yeah, but the castle information. She's controlling all the resources. Yeah, this is reach that gold

14:19:32.540 --> 14:19:36.140
Yes, it reaches both golds. It doesn't reach the stone this castle

14:19:36.140 --> 14:19:40.700
But the trebuchets will be able to reach the stone and trebuchets were going to kill pigs castle

14:19:40.700 --> 14:19:44.380
That's why I don't really like pigs castle here by the way pigs castle here is a very easy

14:19:45.140 --> 14:19:49.140
Trebleable option. I feel like making the castle a little bit further back if you're gonna make it defensive

14:19:49.140 --> 14:19:54.940
It should be a better option pig. Look at this update village not much later chemistry in castle age

14:19:55.180 --> 14:19:58.300
That's the advantage of bohemians. They get to gunpowder faster

14:19:58.300 --> 14:20:05.220
So even though grubby gets first move the bohemians are actually the first ones to gunpowder. It's a really really strong save

14:20:05.220 --> 14:20:09.100
I feel like it's still anyone's game. Listen. I'm not gonna lie to you advantage grubby

14:20:09.100 --> 14:20:12.980
He's got a lot of eco techs coming in. He's got a slightly better economy overall

14:20:12.980 --> 14:20:17.620
But with that third relic, you know all that begun in value. He's up a lot of rest collected now

14:20:19.220 --> 14:20:23.140
Loom coming in. All right, so no no like missing loom shenanigans guys

14:20:23.140 --> 14:20:24.860
It's the last game loom on both sides

14:20:24.860 --> 14:20:30.580
We can put the omega loom to rest you can spend it one final time, but loom is out of this tournament

14:20:30.580 --> 14:20:34.160
Thank God no loom issues will not be taking place in the finals

14:20:34.740 --> 14:20:36.860
And pure list of both players one minute to go

14:20:36.900 --> 14:20:42.860
It's gonna be gunpowder each and remember Bohemian stronger late game and they usually get first move to gunpowder

14:20:43.060 --> 14:20:45.120
So if grubby can't really make anything happen

14:20:45.420 --> 14:20:50.140
He might not be able to push you might have to just play that game where he tries to hold and control the goals that we saw earlier

14:20:50.140 --> 14:20:51.540
Yamato

14:20:51.540 --> 14:20:59.060
There's also, you know the trend in this series so far is that the games pig one was when there was a

14:20:59.180 --> 14:21:02.900
Pretty clean extension to an Imperial game true

14:21:02.900 --> 14:21:04.900
And this is a very inactive game

14:21:04.900 --> 14:21:09.540
Like the the big wins for grubby was when he did get those pushers that gave him

14:21:09.900 --> 14:21:16.660
The better tech and that he kept her ass on and kind of got pig flustered, but this is a very very calm game. Yeah

14:21:18.140 --> 14:21:20.140
And the handkerchief is coming out

14:21:20.140 --> 14:21:26.100
and caneers member chemistry it's a long upgrade grubby has to click it and

14:21:26.100 --> 14:21:30.180
wait for it but he means they can get that in castlage beautiful play from

14:21:30.180 --> 14:21:34.540
from pig picks it up in the castlage as he should he nicked you can now make

14:21:34.540 --> 14:21:37.740
bombards right away can I make him get in here right away and remember in

14:21:37.740 --> 14:21:41.020
age of empires if you get the massive units faster you can just be the

14:21:41.020 --> 14:21:45.660
stronger player on the map with that late game comp so grubby even though he's

14:21:45.660 --> 14:21:49.260
in fast he's got a shred can't really use it what you can hit the castle sure

14:21:49.260 --> 14:21:54.860
but the bombers are coming from pig and we see the hasar tech from agrabi not bad hasar will be solid

14:21:55.260 --> 14:22:01.340
Help you snipe some of those handkinner near it's gonna force the halberd here out of pig pig is not going halbs by the way, so

14:22:02.220 --> 14:22:05.740
He's all in on the handkerchief bomb attendance. I think it's a little strange. Yeah

14:22:06.860 --> 14:22:12.540
There are cavalry sit, you know the enemy already invested into stables. Yeah, I thought I thought the compositions

14:22:12.940 --> 14:22:18.940
Sounded so nice with the with the with the with the halberd ears and the guys who pushed of course the

14:22:19.260 --> 14:22:23.180
the thing, the calvates, the bombardiers.

14:22:23.180 --> 14:22:24.900
Yeah, the bombardiers, of course.

14:22:24.900 --> 14:22:29.340
Also, Grabby's showing his tech, the Hissari, shows it by just attacking this wall.

14:22:29.340 --> 14:22:32.860
So now Pig, if he wants Calvateer, he can just go ahead and pick it up.

14:22:32.860 --> 14:22:34.940
But he doesn't have to go for it.

14:22:34.940 --> 14:22:37.620
Wagonbrew Tactics comes in, that's a unique tech for the Bohemians.

14:22:37.620 --> 14:22:41.220
One of the reasons why they have a better late game comp than the Burgundians.

14:22:41.220 --> 14:22:44.380
This gives all gunpowder units faster movement speed.

14:22:44.380 --> 14:22:47.500
Wagonbrew Tactics is a very, very nice upgrade.

14:22:47.500 --> 14:22:52.300
So these bombers will move faster, the Henkin and Nier will move faster, two Shreber Shades,

14:22:52.300 --> 14:22:55.140
targeting a caster to do it quite well, but the bomber is there.

14:22:55.140 --> 14:22:56.140
Oh, one.

14:22:56.140 --> 14:22:57.140
Can we get a two?

14:22:57.140 --> 14:22:58.140
We got a two.

14:22:58.140 --> 14:22:59.140
We got a two.

14:22:59.140 --> 14:23:00.140
Can we get a three?

14:23:00.140 --> 14:23:01.140
We're going to get a three.

14:23:01.140 --> 14:23:02.140
Can we get a go?

14:23:02.140 --> 14:23:03.140
That's the goal.

14:23:03.140 --> 14:23:05.180
Oh, my days is the goal.

14:23:05.180 --> 14:23:06.540
They never miss, by the way.

14:23:06.540 --> 14:23:07.540
It's not RNG.

14:23:07.540 --> 14:23:08.540
Oh, they never miss.

14:23:08.540 --> 14:23:09.540
They never miss.

14:23:09.540 --> 14:23:12.540
I want to waste to the end to tell you that.

14:23:12.540 --> 14:23:14.980
They got a freeze through straight in the head.

14:23:14.980 --> 14:23:15.980
Yep.

14:23:15.980 --> 14:23:20.220
the bomber cannon. Grubby is still alive. Grubby is looking to push his advantage on

14:23:20.220 --> 14:23:24.980
the map. Siege engineers coming in. That's plus one range to the bombards for Bohemians.

14:23:24.980 --> 14:23:29.980
Oh my god. Grubby is to be careful. Grubby with the Burgundians does not get access

14:23:29.980 --> 14:23:34.620
to siege engineers, but he does have some stronger gunpowder on the fields. He's having

14:23:34.620 --> 14:23:38.940
two bombards looking for more, but gets punished. He goes a bit too close. I want to see Pig

14:23:38.940 --> 14:23:41.420
move out. I think Pig has some momentum here.

14:23:41.420 --> 14:23:47.860
so high look so good just push out I think he's gonna go for it he's not

14:23:47.860 --> 14:23:53.100
the ball board every bomber killed matters by the way

14:23:53.100 --> 14:24:00.900
pushing out the charge hit in the field both players absolute warriors

14:24:00.900 --> 14:24:05.140
playing so much age vampires today this cannon micro some of the most important

14:24:05.140 --> 14:24:12.120
things that they've done today. Remember every cannon guys is 450 resources so

14:24:12.120 --> 14:24:17.440
losing cannons is some of the worst thing you can do. Snipping your opponent's

14:24:17.440 --> 14:24:21.240
cannons is like the best thing you can do and here we go one cannon sniped for

14:24:21.240 --> 14:24:25.320
one hand to the other. It's a very worth the game. What's the appropriate

14:24:25.320 --> 14:24:29.760
formation for these gunmen to get the most value? You can play in staggered

14:24:29.760 --> 14:24:33.760
formation, split them up a little bit just so you don't take big shots from the

14:24:33.760 --> 14:24:36.600
From the bomb bar, it's about Big who's our flank.

14:24:36.600 --> 14:24:38.760
But we stayed up to the side and we start flanking in.

14:24:38.760 --> 14:24:41.640
Canons, getting some big shots and can't get any of them moving in.

14:24:41.640 --> 14:24:44.440
Pig, we wanted him to move out but he doesn't have the halberds.

14:24:44.440 --> 14:24:47.280
He's late to the halbs and Grubby's looking to land the big shots.

14:24:47.280 --> 14:24:48.400
Canons moving forward.

14:24:48.400 --> 14:24:49.560
He's targeting the castle.

14:24:49.560 --> 14:24:50.400
There's two trebs on it.

14:24:50.400 --> 14:24:51.680
The castle's gonna go down.

14:24:51.680 --> 14:24:53.760
Grubby's coach is looking live.

14:24:53.760 --> 14:24:55.160
Wow, castle's down.

14:24:55.160 --> 14:24:57.040
Dude.

14:24:57.040 --> 14:24:59.200
Castle placement gap.

14:24:59.200 --> 14:25:00.440
Oh my god, the gate's open.

14:25:00.440 --> 14:25:01.280
You can keep it open?

14:25:01.280 --> 14:25:02.000
No, he goes back.

14:25:02.000 --> 14:25:02.960
He goes back.

14:25:02.960 --> 14:25:04.960
Doesn't want to risk it, you don't have to push.

14:25:05.460 --> 14:25:08.460
You're gonna control the map here, Grubb, you're gonna control the map, this is beautiful.

14:25:08.460 --> 14:25:09.960
It's got a lot of gold in the bay.

14:25:10.960 --> 14:25:13.960
Honestly, even getting the monastery could be very annoying.

14:25:13.960 --> 14:25:14.460
Yep.

14:25:16.460 --> 14:25:20.960
You know already that with the flag up, the only thing they can hide in there is...

14:25:21.960 --> 14:25:23.960
Relics, right? You can't put anything else there.

14:25:23.960 --> 14:25:26.460
At Monks from the monastery, but mostly it's just relics, of course.

14:25:26.460 --> 14:25:26.960
Okay.

14:25:28.460 --> 14:25:30.460
Very late on the Halvedere upgrades.

14:25:30.460 --> 14:25:30.960
Yep.

14:25:30.960 --> 14:25:35.560
We're getting them in now. It's better late than never. At least we give ourselves a chance to win against this Hussar.

14:25:35.560 --> 14:25:39.960
Without Halb's, the Hussar does tank too much against the Han-Kinirs. You need the Halbedere in there.

14:25:39.960 --> 14:25:41.560
We saw the first fight, Halb played out.

14:25:41.560 --> 14:25:43.160
A lot of cannons now though for Grubby.

14:25:43.160 --> 14:25:47.560
No-Hoof needs to upgrade for Pig. We just have siege engineers with the extra range. His cannons are quite strong.

14:25:47.560 --> 14:25:52.160
Halb and your tech coming in right now. The Hussar are diving into their death. This is not a good fight for Grubby.

14:25:52.160 --> 14:25:53.760
I don't like this. I don't like this.

14:25:53.760 --> 14:25:55.960
No, no, no. The cannons are moving in. Oh my God. Oh my God.

14:25:55.960 --> 14:25:58.560
You're too close to the cannons. Grubby is losing a lot of cannons.

14:25:58.560 --> 14:26:00.760
Pig is bouncing back. He's killed all the Han-Kinirs.

14:26:00.760 --> 14:26:07.560
Grubby is selling! Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god! That's a terrible fight for Grubby and now the pushback from Pig!

14:26:10.260 --> 14:26:12.260
Can he get that trip?

14:26:12.400 --> 14:26:17.960
Do I can is do enough damage? No, but the bombers are good. One trip down. Second trip. It's going down.

14:26:20.400 --> 14:26:24.200
Oh Jude Grubby lost a lot. The score is about to equalize. Grubby lost a lot.

14:26:24.520 --> 14:26:27.840
He's looking for the shots. These workers are thermal workers. They're just repairing.

14:26:27.840 --> 14:26:35.420
going to get the job done is a good chance for the behemoth is crazy complex that pig

14:26:35.420 --> 14:26:40.280
always does it's insane he does have the better leg game said though we do expect this I told

14:26:40.280 --> 14:26:44.600
you it's not over chat we do expect this from the behemoth they have a better leg game comp

14:26:44.600 --> 14:26:50.080
it's actually up to grubby's got a lot of golds 3000 gold it's up to here 26 pikemen

14:26:50.080 --> 14:26:57.520
that we haven't even seen yet where are they right here right here 14 is another stack

14:26:57.520 --> 14:27:03.240
26 on the screen right now so few up here few back here holy moly push out a lot of castles here

14:27:03.240 --> 14:27:05.240
Grabby can just hold the fourth cannon shots

14:27:05.400 --> 14:27:07.400
You cannot take a bad shot. Oh

14:27:09.760 --> 14:27:11.760
You have to go in down

14:27:14.520 --> 14:27:19.740
What's the well how can we get the hoof nice upgrade it's all it's in a hoof nice is in

14:27:21.240 --> 14:27:22.640
Oh

14:27:22.640 --> 14:27:26.320
My god two cannons shot good shot from grubby

14:27:26.320 --> 14:27:31.880
Q-Cannon is going down. Dude, this is such a close matchup. 170 pop for Grubby. He's at 20 pop.

14:27:31.880 --> 14:27:35.920
He's recovered from his back play earlier. He mispositioned. He got punished by Pig.

14:27:35.920 --> 14:27:38.920
It's a back play from Grubby with a great play from Pig to recognize that punish.

14:27:38.920 --> 14:27:40.620
Good little snipe there from Pig. Well played to him.

14:27:40.620 --> 14:27:43.200
He's got a push out of his base. Hoopley's coming in in a minute and a half.

14:27:43.200 --> 14:27:46.600
Game is so close. Advantage is still in Grubby's hands.

14:27:46.600 --> 14:27:50.360
He's got all that map control. Gotta watch those bombards though.

14:27:50.360 --> 14:27:53.760
Pig's doing a great job. He's keeping those bombards at bay.

14:27:53.760 --> 14:27:57.660
They keep Grubby moving, Grubby's mixing in his thighs, he's mixing in some skirmishers.

14:27:57.660 --> 14:27:58.660
What a good match!

14:27:58.660 --> 14:27:59.660
Ballboards!

14:27:59.660 --> 14:28:00.660
Oh, my goodness!

14:28:00.660 --> 14:28:02.700
He's walking into these shots.

14:28:02.700 --> 14:28:06.060
One minute's the hoof and he's saying, Matta, what are you feeling right now?

14:28:06.060 --> 14:28:08.580
I'm just looking at Grubby's resources, he has a lot of gold.

14:28:08.580 --> 14:28:13.100
The map controls are going to really, really pay off, but I'm thinking, as you mentioned

14:28:13.100 --> 14:28:16.260
so many times, the behaving composition should just be stronger.

14:28:16.260 --> 14:28:20.260
I'm thinking, I need to ask you, are there any pivots that Grubby can do with the gold

14:28:20.260 --> 14:28:21.860
advantage that he has?

14:28:21.860 --> 14:28:22.860
Oh, my God.

14:28:22.860 --> 14:28:29.380
Okay, he gets a he gets a bomber. He's gonna step another with a hasar. He could pivot to paladin paladin for an epic gold play with cavalry

14:28:29.380 --> 14:28:31.940
Could be interesting it plays into the halberd here

14:28:31.940 --> 14:28:36.220
So it's really it's really risky my opinion. He should use his gold for more bombards

14:28:36.500 --> 14:28:40.860
Just keep bombard trading bombard keep trading bombers one for one trades are good

14:28:40.860 --> 14:28:42.860
You have all the gold in the map pig is out of gold

14:28:43.220 --> 14:28:47.460
Ladies and gentlemen pig is out of gold. He needs to push right now or he loses the game

14:28:47.460 --> 14:28:51.380
He's got two to three minutes to win this game or else. It's extremely hard

14:28:52.860 --> 14:28:59.820
who he's in though nice upgrade yep oh the range is nutty but what on earth is

14:28:59.820 --> 14:29:08.060
that range 13 range it's one extra in the back grubby has i think the pig has

14:29:08.060 --> 14:29:12.700
made a mistake in terms of how many has on wood he needs more on food

14:29:12.700 --> 14:29:17.740
that's kind of a bad split he's trying to sneak stone

14:29:17.740 --> 14:29:21.740
sneak a what stone and broad daylight but it's it's really good

14:29:21.740 --> 14:29:23.980
Get a little bit of stone, maybe even sell it for gold.

14:29:24.480 --> 14:29:27.580
He's desperate for gold, he's selling a lot of wood at a very suspicious price.

14:29:27.580 --> 14:29:29.720
Oh, attack ground, this type of bombard!

14:29:29.720 --> 14:29:32.520
It's only 400 point difference, Pig is pushing out,

14:29:32.520 --> 14:29:36.820
but he's on a timer, Grubby's got more pop, more gold, more map control, three castles,

14:29:36.820 --> 14:29:38.660
the three castles of death right now.

14:29:38.660 --> 14:29:40.980
It's hard to approach, upgrade's coming in for Grubby,

14:29:40.980 --> 14:29:44.900
it's one last push for Pig, he's marching forward, he's got the bombards behind.

14:29:44.900 --> 14:29:53.860
There's the hoof nice up here. What does it do? Does it do more damage? More damage.

14:29:53.860 --> 14:30:01.460
Long range. Tankier. It's more damage. Tankier. More splash. Harder hitting. It's an all-around

14:30:01.460 --> 14:30:07.300
upgrade. Snaps a bombart. Grabby's trying to play into this but it's hard. He's got

14:30:07.300 --> 14:30:10.700
three cannons. I want to see more cannons. They have a couple more hoofies in the queue.

14:30:10.700 --> 14:30:12.420
Actually, a lot of Hoopies in the queue.

14:30:12.420 --> 14:30:13.860
This game is not over.

14:30:13.860 --> 14:30:16.460
Pig is still in a decent position to continue pushing,

14:30:16.460 --> 14:30:17.540
but he's on a timer.

14:30:17.540 --> 14:30:18.740
I would say another two, three minutes.

14:30:18.740 --> 14:30:19.820
He's got a little bit of gold

14:30:19.820 --> 14:30:21.260
by taking that stone in the front.

14:30:21.260 --> 14:30:23.140
He can also make a castle if he wants,

14:30:23.140 --> 14:30:26.220
a castle, and flipping the game for this gold mine is needed.

14:30:26.220 --> 14:30:27.300
You've got to clear this castle,

14:30:27.300 --> 14:30:29.460
take this gold, and then take it from there.

14:30:29.460 --> 14:30:30.860
That's the game plan here.

14:30:30.860 --> 14:30:32.940
For Pig, castle in the front could be really good.

14:30:32.940 --> 14:30:33.780
Will he think about it?

14:30:33.780 --> 14:30:34.620
I'm not sure.

14:30:34.620 --> 14:30:35.460
He'll kill that Trebuchet,

14:30:35.460 --> 14:30:36.540
but the Hissara coming out,

14:30:36.540 --> 14:30:38.300
Grubby is looking to answer this one.

14:30:38.300 --> 14:30:47.300
Crazy idea here, should Grubby sell wood to make sure that Pig can't sell wood at a high price?

14:30:47.300 --> 14:30:54.300
Actually, great idea, starve him out of gold, you're already playing the map, selling your wood if you're Grubby, remember it's a global market, would be fantastic.

14:30:54.300 --> 14:30:58.300
Excellent call out there, Yamato, playing that economic game.

14:30:58.300 --> 14:31:03.300
Five cannons, six cannons, it's a dangerous army, but he's not landing the shots.

14:31:03.300 --> 14:31:07.400
the shots and dude grubby keeps picking up part grubby keeps picking up a part

14:31:07.400 --> 14:31:12.920
from the side grubby micro grubby's micro is insane with the cannons he's

14:31:12.920 --> 14:31:20.960
hitting and not getting hit dude double shot only three insane that's crazy

14:31:20.960 --> 14:31:24.240
good micro with the cannons

14:31:24.240 --> 14:31:29.240
My days.

14:31:29.240 --> 14:31:30.760
Grubby selling food for gold.

14:31:30.760 --> 14:31:31.760
Oh no, oh no.

14:31:31.760 --> 14:31:32.760
Pig is standing still.

14:31:32.760 --> 14:31:33.760
Oh my god.

14:31:33.760 --> 14:31:35.160
These are gold units.

14:31:35.160 --> 14:31:36.160
We can't be standing still.

14:31:36.160 --> 14:31:37.160
It's maybe that fatigue.

14:31:37.160 --> 14:31:40.360
It's a good shot though to answer this one.

14:31:40.360 --> 14:31:41.360
Vineyard's coming in.

14:31:41.360 --> 14:31:42.360
Extra gold for Grubby.

14:31:42.360 --> 14:31:43.860
Grubby's got the map control.

14:31:43.860 --> 14:31:46.480
Grubby is a moment away from winning the king's gullet.

14:31:46.480 --> 14:31:47.480
He's got so much gold.

14:31:47.480 --> 14:31:49.240
He's getting all kinds of tech.

14:31:49.240 --> 14:31:51.000
He continues to push onto Pig.

14:31:51.000 --> 14:31:52.360
Pig's only got these five cannons.

14:31:52.360 --> 14:31:53.360
No more gold in the bank.

14:31:53.360 --> 14:31:56.180
Enough stone for one castle, good attack round by he whiffs.

14:31:56.180 --> 14:31:58.700
There's a decent attempt there, five cannons, staying safe.

14:32:00.500 --> 14:32:02.740
Does get a nice snipe there, pig, good job!

14:32:02.740 --> 14:32:03.780
With that attack round.

14:32:06.160 --> 14:32:07.640
He's keeping the cannons alive now.

14:32:08.420 --> 14:32:10.020
Oh my god, it's so intense.

14:32:12.400 --> 14:32:13.460
Grub's looking for a snipe.

14:32:13.840 --> 14:32:15.680
Bomber Mike are so crucial!

14:32:15.680 --> 14:32:19.800
Huge hit from Grubby, he kills one of the five cannons, only four to go!

14:32:19.800 --> 14:32:21.200
There's no more cannons coming.

14:32:21.200 --> 14:32:24.840
If these are the last four cannons, if they go down, the game is over.

14:32:24.840 --> 14:32:27.960
If they go down, the game is over, the horse is charged in.

14:32:27.960 --> 14:32:29.960
I command you, jumps!

14:32:29.960 --> 14:32:32.440
If I can come in, oh, some raids.

14:32:32.440 --> 14:32:35.080
Grabbing is really good with that. Rating to distract is really good.

14:32:35.080 --> 14:32:38.640
Oh, great job from Pig. He snaps the cannon. He's keeping his bombers alive.

14:32:38.640 --> 14:32:41.320
Dude, Pig is doing such a good job keeping these bombers alive.

14:32:41.320 --> 14:32:42.400
But in comes Grubby.

14:32:42.400 --> 14:32:43.840
He's got more bombers.

14:32:43.840 --> 14:32:46.480
One bomber snatched up top as well, so Nassar raids in the back.

14:32:46.480 --> 14:32:47.880
We gotta deal with those at the same time.

14:32:47.880 --> 14:32:50.440
130 pot for Pig. He's living his last moments here.

14:32:50.440 --> 14:32:53.360
We need something big for Pig, or he's completely out of this game.

14:32:53.360 --> 14:32:55.160
The minerals are looking worse than ever.

14:32:55.160 --> 14:32:56.200
No gold!

14:32:56.200 --> 14:32:57.640
There's a little bit of stone in the bank.

14:32:57.640 --> 14:32:59.400
The wood is selling for nothing right now.

14:33:01.200 --> 14:33:05.440
I need to say, I think also reorienting the economy is happening very late,

14:33:05.440 --> 14:33:07.760
because he's pulling people off lumber on food.

14:33:07.760 --> 14:33:08.240
Oh!

14:33:08.240 --> 14:33:09.520
I think the same thing for Grubby.

14:33:09.840 --> 14:33:11.920
My god, three cannons went down.

14:33:12.200 --> 14:33:13.880
Three cannons went down.

14:33:13.880 --> 14:33:15.040
It's only one cannon.

14:33:15.040 --> 14:33:16.400
Grubby might have just won the game.

14:33:16.680 --> 14:33:18.240
That was such a nice cannon hit.

14:33:18.320 --> 14:33:19.360
Grubby is moments away.

14:33:19.360 --> 14:33:20.400
Seriously, 200 pop.

14:33:20.400 --> 14:33:23.600
He's about to be crowned the King's Gauntlet number one winner.

14:33:23.600 --> 14:33:26.200
Hissar on the field staying a little bit further back.

14:33:26.200 --> 14:33:28.200
Iron Casting coming in. Good stack of pick.

14:33:28.200 --> 14:33:29.200
He got one.

14:33:29.200 --> 14:33:30.200
Got one.

14:33:30.200 --> 14:33:32.200
You need a lot more from him though. The arm come.

14:33:32.200 --> 14:33:34.200
He's got a little more of these but you can see.

14:33:34.200 --> 14:33:37.200
He can adapt into the game. He knows he's got to move.

14:33:37.200 --> 14:33:39.700
He's got to move. Hissar waits coming in though.

14:33:39.700 --> 14:33:41.700
Halbs in the back will deal with this.

14:33:43.700 --> 14:33:46.200
I do think that the pick really needs to sell a stone.

14:33:46.200 --> 14:33:49.200
He's holding onto that stone but I don't think that cast is coming down.

14:33:49.200 --> 14:33:52.640
He needs more kind of like Bombadils.

14:33:52.640 --> 14:33:53.640
Yep.

14:33:53.640 --> 14:33:54.640
He doesn't have it.

14:33:54.640 --> 14:33:55.640
Yeah.

14:33:55.640 --> 14:33:56.640
Selling the stone would be good.

14:33:56.640 --> 14:33:57.640
Just getting a little bit of gold.

14:33:57.640 --> 14:33:58.640
I completely agree with you.

14:33:58.640 --> 14:34:00.200
Like earlier we could have went with the castle.

14:34:00.200 --> 14:34:01.280
Maybe we just risk it like that.

14:34:01.280 --> 14:34:04.520
But now we just need a little bit of gold.

14:34:04.520 --> 14:34:06.800
Grubbysburg onions have been his ace the entire term.

14:34:06.800 --> 14:34:10.000
He's undefeated in a tournament with the civilization on this map.

14:34:10.000 --> 14:34:11.200
140 pop for Pig.

14:34:11.200 --> 14:34:12.360
The raids are heavy to be honest.

14:34:12.360 --> 14:34:14.080
The raids are really heavy right here.

14:34:14.080 --> 14:34:17.000
We have some halbs but they're not really doing a great job.

14:34:17.000 --> 14:34:18.680
Cavalier coming in.

14:34:18.680 --> 14:34:23.080
prepping the paladin the finishing blow that paladin would be insane bracer

14:34:23.080 --> 14:34:26.340
coming in guilds this late game from the brigundians is looking fantastic

14:34:26.340 --> 14:34:30.480
repairs of the oppo is a little funny there it will go down though some side

14:34:30.480 --> 14:34:37.640
waiting last cannon it's the last cannon it's the last cannon you're not oh

14:34:37.640 --> 14:34:42.640
it's the last go the last cannon we're almost down to the last village it's

14:34:42.640 --> 14:34:50.480
man. Rades have been heavy. Because in deep trouble the raids did a lot of damage. 73 villages.

14:34:50.480 --> 14:34:54.400
He's still, the raid is still ongoing by the way. It never stopped. The pikemen just gave up.

14:34:54.400 --> 14:35:00.320
Yeah. The pikemen just lost. I don't even know where they are. They gave up. They abandoned their posts.

14:35:00.320 --> 14:35:04.400
Grubby with another castle down bottom looking to squeeze Pig out of this game looking to take

14:35:04.400 --> 14:35:08.080
more and more space in the map. More and more minerals. Grubby's in a great position. He's

14:35:08.080 --> 14:35:12.480
taking more gold. He's got 9000 wood in the bank. A perfect economy. He's got the vineyards

14:35:12.480 --> 14:35:15.180
For extra gold flow, Nisar is running in.

14:35:15.180 --> 14:35:17.580
Gotta be careful, those halves are still good though.

14:35:17.580 --> 14:35:21.580
But the guns are falling, and the guns are what matter, 100 pot for Pig.

14:35:21.580 --> 14:35:25.180
Ladies and gentlemen, he's tried so hard, he's played a great tournament,

14:35:25.180 --> 14:35:30.780
but Pig is about to get the theater taste of a second place after a well-hard fought finals.

14:35:30.780 --> 14:35:32.880
But honestly, he goes down a winner.

14:35:32.880 --> 14:35:34.780
None of these players will go down a loser today.

14:35:34.780 --> 14:35:36.780
They both played a fantastic tournament.

14:35:36.780 --> 14:35:38.780
Super pat of both.

14:35:38.780 --> 14:35:40.780
But right now, it's all grubby, man.

14:35:40.780 --> 14:35:42.260
with Pegas in such a bad position.

14:35:42.260 --> 14:35:45.000
He's played such a good finals, such a good,

14:35:45.000 --> 14:35:47.060
even this last game, he played it so well.

14:35:47.060 --> 14:35:48.260
He had his moments.

14:35:50.420 --> 14:35:53.140
Paladin in, handkinner near on the field.

14:35:53.140 --> 14:35:54.900
That's as good as possible.

14:35:54.900 --> 14:35:56.240
Just not feeling for Pegas.

14:35:56.240 --> 14:35:57.300
And I'm getting short by a miracle.

14:35:57.300 --> 14:35:59.140
Yeah, 100 pop.

14:36:00.220 --> 14:36:02.540
Steel five relics, get a relic victory,

14:36:02.540 --> 14:36:04.100
build a wander in the back.

14:36:04.980 --> 14:36:07.460
Titanic fortress in the back, something.

14:36:07.460 --> 14:36:09.540
I need to do something for Pegas right now.

14:36:09.540 --> 14:36:16.100
forward cast. GG well played. Grubby is your team Gauntlet Champion. He went for a miracle

14:36:16.100 --> 14:36:21.180
run in the losers bracket and he climbed all the way back to the winners finals to the grand

14:36:21.180 --> 14:36:26.060
finals excuse me and he's winning the rematch against Pig. The final few moments a little

14:36:26.060 --> 14:36:30.420
pause very anticlimactic but the win is there Grubby with a 3-2 victory give it up in the

14:36:30.420 --> 14:36:36.740
chat for Grubby the Kings Gauntlet Champion. Well played man proper endurance GG's classy

14:36:36.740 --> 14:36:40.340

is up it's 5 30 in the morning which is absolutely crazy but even crazy to even

14:37:02.860 --> 14:37:08.620
consider the feat of strength that Grubby went through to, of course, win out.

14:37:08.620 --> 14:37:09.620
What was he played?

14:37:09.620 --> 14:37:14.700
What? Eight, twenty, twenty games.

14:37:15.420 --> 14:37:18.700
How many games? I think it was eight, eight games played or maybe sixteen

14:37:18.700 --> 14:37:21.140
something like that. I think maybe maybe sixteen.

14:37:22.780 --> 14:37:27.460
Yeah. Sixteen games in total. Four sets, all competitive, all do or die.

14:37:27.940 --> 14:37:30.140
And what a feat that is to come back and win.

14:37:30.140 --> 14:37:36.460
It's a hero run honestly really really well played from grubby so proud of them as well for for keeping his composure

14:37:37.060 --> 14:37:42.980
You know being down that loser bracket. You never know all those thoughts racing, but congratulations to grubby is the champion of the events and

14:37:43.540 --> 14:37:46.060
Damn, what a fantastic event that's been seriously

14:37:46.060 --> 14:37:50.540
I'll take this moment before we end off the the game before we leave the game here

14:37:50.540 --> 14:37:54.220
Just to thank everybody who's watched both on live stream twitch YouTube

14:37:54.220 --> 14:37:59.440
This will of course be made as a video on YouTube. So thank you to walk for those watching as the video leave a comment

14:37:59.440 --> 14:38:02.400
of your favorite moment in the Kings Gauntlet.

14:38:02.400 --> 14:38:04.400
We hit our sub goals and the viewer numbers

14:38:04.400 --> 14:38:08.440
have been absolutely out of this world on all platforms.

14:38:08.440 --> 14:38:11.480
And so I can finally announce with confidence

14:38:11.480 --> 14:38:14.560
and with a lot of honor and pride, honestly,

14:38:14.560 --> 14:38:16.720
I'm very, very grateful for this opportunity

14:38:16.720 --> 14:38:19.520
to announce a Kings Gauntlet number two next year,

14:38:19.520 --> 14:38:21.000
pretty much confirmed here.

14:38:21.000 --> 14:38:23.480
And hopefully we can make a bigger and better event happen.

14:38:23.480 --> 14:38:25.600
So if you've enjoyed this event, another one's coming.

14:38:25.600 --> 14:38:27.240
But of course, here on the stream,

14:38:27.240 --> 14:38:29.280
we're gonna bring in a grubby for the interview

14:38:29.280 --> 14:38:31.600
and you might want to stick around and ask him some questions

14:38:31.600 --> 14:38:34.760
uh... he is uh... it's late for him but if you can bring him in it'll be fantastic

14:38:34.760 --> 14:38:36.040
let's see if

14:38:36.040 --> 14:38:39.600
i don't have an answer around but

14:38:39.600 --> 14:38:44.080
let's ask if gregi wants to jump in for an interview

14:38:44.080 --> 14:38:47.080
small call after all small call after all chat

14:38:47.080 --> 14:38:54.080
i want to get my small call

14:38:54.200 --> 14:38:59.200
uh... man just will play the pig though seriously like you can see the cams pig

14:38:59.200 --> 14:39:03.200
You know, hands up, he's given us all, he's given us all and

14:39:03.200 --> 14:39:06.320
they both honestly deserve a lot of respects.

14:39:06.320 --> 14:39:10.000
What a freaking final, these guys are legends, honest that.

14:39:10.000 --> 14:39:13.080
Maybe we can get Pig in here as well.

14:39:13.080 --> 14:39:14.640
Yeah, Pig is ready to join.

14:39:17.440 --> 14:39:21.120
Before we get into the interview, Zera, just make sure that you tell your

14:39:21.120 --> 14:39:25.240
chat that the goal to shave your head, that continues tomorrow too.

14:39:25.240 --> 14:39:30.400
That's a part of technically a part of the Kings gauntlet. So

14:39:31.240 --> 14:39:37.440
We can reach 12k tomorrow guys. We have time. Yeah, definitely have time to make her a bolt. I

14:39:38.760 --> 14:39:42.880
Think with the bracket in the background, I think we have pig joining us now pig dude

14:39:43.040 --> 14:39:48.000
You're a freaking legend man first and foremost huge congratulations. Listen. It's not a loss today

14:39:48.000 --> 14:39:50.740
It's the second place and a fantastic second place at that

14:39:50.740 --> 14:39:55.680
You were undefeated into the Grand Finals and you played a great Grand Finals. How are you feeling man?

14:39:55.680 --> 14:40:00.640
You've played. Get to hear from you. Oh man, it's been an emotional journey, dude

14:40:00.640 --> 14:40:07.300
I don't think I've ever played even Starcraft this much in three weeks like the amount I've played Age of Empires the amount of things

14:40:07.300 --> 14:40:09.300
I've learned. Oh my god, and

14:40:10.020 --> 14:40:15.460
Yeah, I found out even even in the finals. I'm learning things like apparently if your TC shoots your sheep

14:40:15.460 --> 14:40:18.300
You can still you can still eat them. Yeah, I should have known

14:40:18.300 --> 14:40:42.300
I got so tilted. It was so bad. But no, dude, Grubby played really good. You put so much pressure on me. We're both so tired and like you can see we're kind of making so many mistakes. But yeah, it was just like at the end of the day, it was who can weather the storm of sloppiness a bit better. And Grubby was just a little bit better than me. So it was really fun though, man.

14:40:42.300 --> 14:40:52.300
Yeah, no, fantastic, fantastic finals. The dream finals from a viewer perspective. And I'm trying to comment here, pig. You kind of did well through the early rounds. You know, 2-0, 2-1 is looking pretty good.

14:40:52.300 --> 14:41:04.300
And then you got into the final rounds and up against the captains. You went for a 3-2-3-2 and a 2-3. So you went to five games in all the final matches, let's say, all the semifinals onwards in the upper bracket.

14:41:04.300 --> 14:41:07.620
It just goes to show how close the level was between the captains

14:41:07.620 --> 14:41:10.580
How did you feel going up against the captains compared to some of the earlier rounds?

14:41:10.580 --> 14:41:12.580
Do you really feel that it was that close of a level?

14:41:12.580 --> 14:41:17.060
I'm honestly proud of you all for raising the level of you know yourselves in the two three weeks

14:41:17.060 --> 14:41:20.660
But how do you feel about the level of their fellow competitors as well in the last stages?

14:41:20.660 --> 14:41:26.760
You know I was really worried because you you did bribe me to be the hype man and purposely just keep throwing matches to make them as

14:41:26.760 --> 14:41:32.420
Close as possible, but I wasn't sure I was gonna be good enough play. I was so inconsiderate. Can I throw at the right time?

14:41:32.420 --> 14:41:40.420
That was good man, like it's always good when you lose a game, you win a game, you lose a game, I was struggling on arena and fortress.

14:41:40.420 --> 14:41:45.420
I think for me, I think me and you thermal are like such starker up to try hards.

14:41:45.420 --> 14:41:54.420
We both went through the same emotional journey of like being like, I don't like fortress and arena, these maps silly, but I tried hard to overcome it.

14:41:54.420 --> 14:42:00.420
I didn't have the best success on them. I don't think I really got to the point where I won many games against the top players on them.

14:42:00.420 --> 14:42:06.720
But I tried some new things and I think that the real fun of this tournament was the best of fives

14:42:07.160 --> 14:42:10.460
Forced me to go beyond my preparation like I was just like oh, no

14:42:10.460 --> 14:42:17.320
I don't have four fifthsives that I'm confident on I don't really have like a great second fortress or arena build order

14:42:17.440 --> 14:42:23.900
So there was a lot of trying builds based off of descriptions from friends and people in my twitch chat

14:42:23.900 --> 14:42:29.120
You know the the the Jan swordsman the the the Musica Musica

14:42:29.120 --> 14:42:32.520
What is it? Temple Guard ran, which I guess is like a

14:42:32.520 --> 14:42:36.440
Phosphor build apparently, but like I only got to practice any

14:42:36.440 --> 14:42:40.280
games with these civs like one or two games versus AI before the

14:42:40.280 --> 14:42:44.480
series. So as many mistakes as I've made, I was pretty happy

14:42:44.480 --> 14:42:46.320
with the fact that I was actually able to win games of

14:42:46.320 --> 14:42:50.040
builds that were like barely practiced at all. But the power

14:42:50.040 --> 14:42:53.560
of Twitch chat, the power of the community, or giving advice,

14:42:53.560 --> 14:42:55.960
it's been three weeks of like so many pro players, you're

14:42:55.960 --> 14:42:58.880
self dropping in constantly, telling me stop losing your

14:42:58.880 --> 14:43:03.360
needs to stop moving your woodchoppers around and letting all your bombards die like you told me

14:43:03.360 --> 14:43:08.640
this like 20 times in the last two weeks I still I still go into just a woodline and lose them in

14:43:08.640 --> 14:43:13.200
every game but you know it's uh it's been a real journey man it's so much fun I will say for what

14:43:13.200 --> 14:43:19.680
it's worth your bomber micro uh was phenomenal like actually you've improved so much in that so

14:43:19.680 --> 14:43:24.000
kudos to you for the improvement and that my words are certainly not falling on deaf ears but

14:43:24.000 --> 14:43:29.720
I just want to say if there's one game that really really kind of leaves the market that that fortress game you played against grubby

14:43:29.720 --> 14:43:32.760
You play the Sicilians you have that kind of field round push early

14:43:32.760 --> 14:43:39.740
But you freaking you've ridded your way through to a winning late game somehow within an unorthodox pick in the Sicilians

14:43:39.840 --> 14:43:46.680
It was super impressive if anything speaks to your diversity and your versatility as a player with your strategies and whatnot

14:43:46.680 --> 14:43:51.520
I think it was that one. I think you bought a good mix of anti-meta plus some good meta options

14:43:51.520 --> 14:43:57.460
Some good fundamentals. You're a phenomenal pleasure watching. Seriously is a pleasure to cast your games

14:43:58.660 --> 14:44:03.580
Thanks, he's man. I I appreciate it's been so much fun. I don't know how I made some of those comebacks

14:44:03.900 --> 14:44:08.740
Both series against grubby. It was the Vietnamese in the first series where he double archer proxy me

14:44:08.980 --> 14:44:10.600
Yeah, I was dead the whole game

14:44:10.600 --> 14:44:13.960
I don't know how I brought that one back and same with game one in this series

14:44:14.120 --> 14:44:18.640
So there's a few games where I'm like, oh you dumb dumb you threw the advantage away here and there

14:44:18.640 --> 14:44:21.280
But then there's those ones are like, how the hell did I even win those games?

14:44:21.280 --> 14:44:24.400
So apparently, Sargeants are better than we realized.

14:44:24.400 --> 14:44:27.720
And, um, yeah, I think it helped that I've played so much Vietnamese.

14:44:28.120 --> 14:44:30.960
And I was like, how am I going to counter skirm Fire Lancer?

14:44:31.560 --> 14:44:35.140
And of course, my number one coach survivalist, I messaged him earlier and he was

14:44:35.140 --> 14:44:37.700
like, yeah, just, just keep mixing in.

14:44:37.700 --> 14:44:41.040
Cause I was planning to not build any Sargeants after the first crusade Ram

14:44:41.040 --> 14:44:44.880
push and he's like, no, no, no, no, like keep mixing them in, use them in Rams,

14:44:44.900 --> 14:44:48.020
use them to deal with like the Lancers, chuck them in Rams to jump in, in on

14:44:48.020 --> 14:44:52.580
top of the arches. And yeah, they traded crazy good. Apparently someone told me it was like

14:44:52.580 --> 14:44:57.580
9000 Relic Gold he had or something. Yes, 9000 Relic Gold. You should have been dead in the

14:44:57.580 --> 14:45:01.540
waters with so many metrics. And in the end, of course, the timer did force him to make

14:45:01.540 --> 14:45:06.460
some crazy moves, you know, five relics. If there's no timer usually going to be favored.

14:45:06.460 --> 14:45:11.700
But all metrics showed Grubby winning that game. And you just took some good trade after

14:45:11.700 --> 14:45:15.540
good trade kept fighting, kept raiding, kept making it messy. And in the end, your army

14:45:15.540 --> 14:45:20.100
The amount of mixes you had in there was just beautiful to watch. It was a fantastic comeback, honestly

14:45:21.140 --> 14:45:23.140
Thanks, man. I just one thing

14:45:23.580 --> 14:45:28.100
Trader onages need to I've I hadn't used onages at all in the last few weeks

14:45:28.100 --> 14:45:31.620
I was like, these are really good. Dude. I think they killed more of my units than his

14:45:32.980 --> 14:45:38.260
Dude, oh my lord the number of times I look back. I'm like, what killed all of those and I just see an onager standing there

14:45:38.260 --> 14:45:41.480
He's like, wasn't me, you know, you did it again

14:45:41.480 --> 14:45:47.240
So I saw him to the scorpions I realized that's a much more new friendly unit for me. I can aim

14:45:47.240 --> 14:45:51.820
Yeah, it just does its job. Yeah. Yeah, we saw the adaptation there to the scorpion

14:45:51.820 --> 14:45:56.880
Scripps was a much more consistent and reliable backline. You know a lot of times the odd orders are just walking and dying

14:45:56.880 --> 14:46:02.520
But you'll pick I want to get your opinion on the Schumer Terms in general. Listen, we have a Kings Gauntlet number two confirmed

14:46:02.880 --> 14:46:08.000
Obviously enough to make a decision now, but you're keen on joining for a Kings Gauntlet number two next year potentially. Oh

14:46:08.000 --> 14:46:13.760
Oh, 100% man. Dude, this has been such a blast. It's so fun to learn something new,

14:46:13.760 --> 14:46:19.880
try hard it and kind of, yeah, develop so much. You know, I've been a casual fan on

14:46:19.880 --> 14:46:23.920
the sidelines watching you guys and the other pros play for a while and getting to hop in

14:46:23.920 --> 14:46:28.280
and have you guys share some of your knowledge with us. It's also been a real pleasure, I

14:46:28.280 --> 14:46:33.520
think, to learn. There's something about 30 year old strategy games that have so many

14:46:33.520 --> 14:46:38.120
little quirks and little weird behaviors and things like it feels like every day you're

14:46:38.120 --> 14:46:42.480
just learning all these little details like oh when the manganelle shoots the town center

14:46:42.480 --> 14:46:47.800
it gets extra range or a farm and you know if you delete a unit like this this happens

14:46:47.800 --> 14:46:51.120
there's just like a thousand cool little details so it's been really fun just learning all

14:46:51.120 --> 14:46:54.440
that and I'd absolutely love to join any future events.

14:46:54.440 --> 14:46:58.800
Love it bro and just the chat is asking as well you know we did Warcraft we did Age of

14:46:58.800 --> 14:47:03.400
Empires 2 right now how about we finish the Trinity with Starcraft any plans to make

14:47:03.400 --> 14:47:08.280
host your own streamer showdown. I'll come play some Starcraft. What are your thoughts

14:47:08.280 --> 14:47:11.820
there? Yeah, I mean, I heard you didn't take down

14:47:11.820 --> 14:47:16.480
Cerro, but I think maybe we can give you a slightly more even playing field and teach

14:47:16.480 --> 14:47:19.240
you some Starcraft. If we get one going, are you in?

14:47:19.240 --> 14:47:24.200
I'm like most likely, if it lines up for me nicely, I'm so in. I think I had such a blast

14:47:24.200 --> 14:47:27.520
at the Warcraft. I'm still playing Warcraft from the side, by the way. I'm not very good,

14:47:27.520 --> 14:47:30.600
but I'm trying to get better, trying to maybe hit 2K one day there, but I'll definitely

14:47:30.600 --> 14:47:35.600
play some Starcraft. I think you, you Thermal, maybe some, maybe Loco, just cook something

14:47:35.600 --> 14:47:41.200
up for Starcraft 2. Day 9, maybe Rude War, sorry, Mr. Llama, maybe some Rude War, but

14:47:41.200 --> 14:47:44.280
I think Starcraft 2 would be a good place to run it back, honestly.

14:47:44.280 --> 14:47:48.960
Thank you, man. These sort of events are just so fun for bringing different communities

14:47:48.960 --> 14:47:53.560
together. Everyone's been super cool. It's been friggin' fun playing with some of the

14:47:53.560 --> 14:47:57.280
other guys, getting some custom games in, just going and hanging out on each other's

14:47:57.280 --> 14:48:00.680
channels and I think it's really cool just shout out to you guys once again the

14:48:00.680 --> 14:48:04.320
admins whoever the hell built your website being able to open it up see

14:48:04.320 --> 14:48:07.800
the rankings track the points you've got the the team aspect was really smart as

14:48:07.800 --> 14:48:11.840
well I thought that was really fun kind of pushed everyone to like chat with the

14:48:11.840 --> 14:48:14.640
other streamers and interact a little bit more as we were kind of encouraging

14:48:14.640 --> 14:48:17.920
people to play games and get there they're rating up and then being able to

14:48:17.920 --> 14:48:21.080
also just get all look I can go to the website and I can see who's live at any

14:48:21.080 --> 14:48:24.080
moment and go around and just tune in and see what's happening you know is

14:48:24.080 --> 14:48:27.120
there gonna be a teutonic fortress again is someone gonna be torturing Yamato

14:48:27.120 --> 14:48:31.700
And he's one more game honey. I'll be there, you know, like there's a lot of fun journeys

14:48:31.700 --> 14:48:37.620
The I think it was death note played like a two-hour and a half hour game with tofu is well one day

14:48:37.620 --> 14:48:42.680
You know a lot of funness. Yeah, absolutely and I echo everything you said

14:48:42.680 --> 14:48:46.800
It's been a great event and I heard grubby's keyboard there finally a small call

14:48:47.080 --> 14:48:50.880
Grubby denied me enough with that crazy loser back around but congratulations man

14:48:50.880 --> 14:48:55.280
The king's gauntlet winner and a crazy loser back around how do you feel man good to see you?

14:48:55.280 --> 14:49:01.280
Thank you very much. I feel kind of sad. I haven't seen you all day.

14:49:01.280 --> 14:49:03.280
It's been tough, man. It's been tough.

14:49:03.280 --> 14:49:07.280
But it was worth it. You won the tournament in the end, so congratulations.

14:49:07.280 --> 14:49:11.280
How do you feel actually winning this tournament with such an epic run and obviously, you know,

14:49:11.280 --> 14:49:16.280
a very, very legendary foe and a good rival for the event, a good storyline there?

14:49:16.280 --> 14:49:19.280
Grebia, what are your feelings after winning the event?

14:49:19.280 --> 14:49:24.280
I mean, I feel really amazing. Like, it's just like...

14:49:24.280 --> 14:49:28.280
I had a lot of achievements, but in Starcraft 2, I was just okay.

14:49:28.280 --> 14:49:31.280
Like I was in the top of Europe, but I didn't win any tournament.

14:49:31.280 --> 14:49:34.280
And in AE4, I was top 20 ladder, but I didn't play any tournament.

14:49:34.280 --> 14:49:41.280
So this is actually the first really important tournament I won outside of Warcraft 3 in an RTS.

14:49:41.280 --> 14:49:43.280
And I kind of can't believe it.

14:49:43.280 --> 14:49:45.280
So I'm actually extremely happy with it, more than you would think,

14:49:45.280 --> 14:49:49.280
because like, you know, stream is more important than esports now, or so you would think.

14:49:49.280 --> 14:49:53.840
we think that it's only all the old feelings come back and you start

14:49:53.840 --> 14:49:56.760
tryharding and everything. And then when you see everyone else practicing,

14:49:56.760 --> 14:50:02.760
you see how good everyone is. Oh man, I got so stressed, pig, so smart,

14:50:02.800 --> 14:50:07.820
so good preparation, insane macro, insane multitasking, same counter

14:50:07.820 --> 14:50:13.480
attacks. I never underestimated him. I said it on my stream too. For the

14:50:13.480 --> 14:50:18.640
first match, I couldn't even explain to my wife why I was preparing so hard

14:50:18.640 --> 14:50:20.080
for the match against Pig.

14:50:20.080 --> 14:50:22.280
Because I'm number one Elo, which she knew,

14:50:22.280 --> 14:50:25.920
but she doesn't know the nuances of the game.

14:50:25.920 --> 14:50:27.520
So I'm 150 Elo higher.

14:50:27.520 --> 14:50:29.400
She's like, yeah, you're gonna win, right?

14:50:29.400 --> 14:50:31.560
And like, I was not so sure at all.

14:50:31.560 --> 14:50:33.640
I was extremely stressful

14:50:33.640 --> 14:50:38.200
and I was really sad after I lost him yesterday

14:50:38.200 --> 14:50:39.840
and I still can't believe even that I won today

14:50:39.840 --> 14:50:41.600
because his prep is so good.

14:50:41.600 --> 14:50:43.720
His symbiosis with survivalists,

14:50:43.720 --> 14:50:47.840
very impressive, very impressive preparation

14:50:47.840 --> 14:50:51.520
and very daring as well with the sifts that he picked.

14:50:51.520 --> 14:50:54.560
Like he's daring to pick these sifts that he doesn't have much experience in.

14:50:54.560 --> 14:50:59.120
I guess I followed his inspiration by playing Koreans that have like five games in lifetime,

14:51:00.240 --> 14:51:03.440
which kind of worked. And did it work? I don't even remember.

14:51:03.440 --> 14:51:05.200
It didn't work, yeah. It's phenomenal.

14:51:06.480 --> 14:51:09.760
I can't believe that I beat Pig. I can't believe that I beat Lance,

14:51:09.760 --> 14:51:12.720
because Lance has like 7000 games experience.

14:51:12.720 --> 14:51:16.080
Like it was obviously at way more game knowledge and different builds and everything.

14:51:16.080 --> 14:51:22.920
So I, you know, I, I got a bit, I got mad watching him sometimes because he had so much more experience and stress than us and everything.

14:51:23.580 --> 14:51:29.420
But I also had a little talk with you thermal, you thermal and I are good friends, of course, and he already lost to Lance.

14:51:29.420 --> 14:51:32.460
And so we talked a bit and he's like, I think like this, like that.

14:51:32.660 --> 14:51:35.220
And then, you know, a lot of people rooting for me and it helped a lot.

14:51:35.220 --> 14:51:37.560
And yeah, overall, thank you so much for the tourney.

14:51:38.220 --> 14:51:40.560
Thank you and Roxy and all hamburgers, by the way.

14:51:40.740 --> 14:51:41.060
Yeah.

14:51:41.060 --> 14:51:44.400
And you need to get, you need to get the work spread across more different

14:51:44.400 --> 14:51:49.800
Applian's not poor hamburgers, but he did some great. He's so nice. Yeah, we had one website guy

14:51:49.800 --> 14:51:56.860
We had one admin and it was me and Roxy. It was a freaking homegrown production. There was four people basically working on this

14:51:57.840 --> 14:52:03.020
That's crazy. You started day one by leaking video ninja link and I was like look at that guy

14:52:03.020 --> 14:52:08.720
But then I thought wait I had a guy helping like the whole weekend. Yeah, I was doing the cameras the whole time

14:52:08.720 --> 14:52:11.360
I was switching the cams. I was the cam guy the caster

14:52:11.360 --> 14:52:17.040
I was it was crazy one of the hardest things I've ever done. I'm actually by the way beyond

14:52:18.200 --> 14:52:24.800
Blessed with the outcome from the viewership, but also beyond happy with the outcome of the tournament like so many banger sets

14:52:25.520 --> 14:52:27.240
No, no one really dropped like okay

14:52:27.240 --> 14:52:31.080
We had a sleepy a meme but that can happen pestily with the with the mix up

14:52:31.080 --> 14:52:32.240
It was not even his fault in the end

14:52:32.240 --> 14:52:35.920
There's just a mix up with the admin and you know a ton of you know miscommunication

14:52:36.360 --> 14:52:40.440
But no one flat out dropped everybody took it seriously everybody showed up everybody enjoyed it

14:52:40.440 --> 14:52:44.640
It was literally a fantastic event. I could not ask for a better King's Gauntlet 1.

14:52:44.640 --> 14:52:49.140
We have King's Gauntlet 2 confirmed as well for next year, so I'll work on that and try to do something better.

14:52:49.140 --> 14:52:52.060
I don't know how this can be top, but I'll work on it and I just want to say

14:52:52.820 --> 14:52:55.760
I have a lot of things to say, but I'll just say a few things

14:52:57.040 --> 14:53:00.040
to keep it short, of course. It was Dreamcom Shooter Hostess.

14:53:00.040 --> 14:53:04.040
I feel like we connected so many communities together and I feel like it's really

14:53:04.400 --> 14:53:10.240
following suits nicely with what you hosted with Warcraft 3, Grubby, and I hope it leads to something even better in the future.

14:53:10.240 --> 14:53:15.120
So it means a lot to be able to kind of fall into your footsteps and I hope it leads to, you know,

14:53:15.120 --> 14:53:19.360
just a continuation of RTS communities working together, gaming communities coming together,

14:53:19.360 --> 14:53:23.760
streamers working together to provide a bigger and better show for the audience that is so supportive

14:53:23.760 --> 14:53:29.120
and so engaging and so, you know, appreciative of the work we're doing and, you know, kind of

14:53:29.120 --> 14:53:32.080
showing us the love and we're sending it back to you guys, hopefully.

14:53:32.080 --> 14:53:37.080
You did a great thing, you guys can agree more.

14:53:37.080 --> 14:53:38.080
Hey Yamato!

14:53:38.080 --> 14:53:39.080
Hey!

14:53:39.080 --> 14:53:40.080
Hey!

14:53:40.080 --> 14:53:42.080
I was just sitting quietly, bro.

14:53:42.080 --> 14:53:45.080
I'm 6am deep just as you, bro, like my eyes are gluing.

14:53:45.080 --> 14:53:48.080
You're used to this, you know.

14:53:48.080 --> 14:53:52.080
You're younger, you're like super young, 35 years old.

14:53:52.080 --> 14:53:56.080
It's a failure difference, bro.

14:53:56.080 --> 14:53:58.080
You do this every day.

14:53:58.080 --> 14:54:01.080
I have never done a stream this long.

14:54:01.080 --> 14:54:07.660
I just, I just, I just wanted to squeeze in a couple of words too.

14:54:07.660 --> 14:54:12.380
You know, Hera, you're a fantastic job on everything, honestly, casting for these amount

14:54:12.380 --> 14:54:13.380
of hours.

14:54:13.380 --> 14:54:19.580
The crazy schedule was heavy on some, like for example, Grubby today, and we had different

14:54:19.580 --> 14:54:24.060
time zones, everyone came together and figured it out, but you were streaming nonstop, and

14:54:24.060 --> 14:54:29.920
you were casting nonstop, and somehow you maintained, you know, like just good damn

14:54:29.920 --> 14:54:36.360
energy throughout made every moment very memorable. I wasn't saying as well, you know, coming

14:54:36.360 --> 14:54:40.040
into the tournament, I was like, yo, grubby is going to be the favorite. But I think people

14:54:40.040 --> 14:54:46.280
always misunderstand why grubby is the favorite because looking at it throughout competition

14:54:46.280 --> 14:54:52.360
was heating up. Like you invited some fucking God gamers, people were climbing suddenly 400

14:54:52.360 --> 14:54:58.440
elo up 500 elo up, people were climbing like crazy. It got very scary, super fast. You know,

14:54:58.440 --> 14:55:08.160
I had an ego there for a week. I was like, ah, I can maybe do well. And then suddenly my ego just disappeared the shattered insolent gone completely, completely gone.

14:55:08.360 --> 14:55:19.600
And the main thing is, you know, when people say Grubby was a favorite to win it, oh, I think the reason I say people misunderstood that you showcase why you were in the favor, right?

14:55:19.600 --> 14:55:25.600
You showcase in the sense of how hard you worked. I was every time I tuned into Grubby stream, he was reviewing.

14:55:25.600 --> 14:55:32.240
He was looking at, you know, every single damn detail you engage in the game in such a deep way.

14:55:32.240 --> 14:55:37.760
It just seemed like all of the neurons, I was mentioning it earlier, Grobby, maybe you can confirm.

14:55:37.760 --> 14:55:43.080
But the idea, I don't know if it is the same for you, but as a competitor.

14:55:43.080 --> 14:55:49.200
And then sometimes, you know, you pass your prime, I was telling her, I was like, you're in your prime, you're not going to understand this, in ten years you're going to understand.

14:55:49.200 --> 14:55:55.280
There's this voice in your head that always tells you, if I wanted to, I could.

14:55:55.280 --> 14:56:02.000
This voice is always there and then you get an opportunity to compete like this and then that voice

14:56:02.200 --> 14:56:07.160
You have to answer that calling because that voice has been feeding your ego your entire life

14:56:07.280 --> 14:56:13.060
So after you compete in your prime you pass your prime and you get an opportunity to to engage in something the way you did

14:56:13.060 --> 14:56:17.720
I could recognize what I went through in work of three the same way you and

14:56:18.000 --> 14:56:22.840
Everybody else also approached the age of empires thing because that voice that egos

14:56:22.840 --> 14:56:25.060
Because if I wanted to, I could.

14:56:25.060 --> 14:56:28.400
And you wanted to, and you damn could.

14:56:28.400 --> 14:56:32.360
You smoked the competition, and you did it in a way where, fuck it, what, you played

14:56:32.360 --> 14:56:34.200
20 games today?

14:56:34.200 --> 14:56:35.320
Absolutely incredible.

14:56:35.320 --> 14:56:37.800
And that is the truth as to why you were the favorite.

14:56:37.800 --> 14:56:39.960
The damn hard work and the passion behind it.

14:56:39.960 --> 14:56:44.760
Because I don't know if you had memories from WCG days or any days of your past tournaments

14:56:44.760 --> 14:56:48.960
where you had to play, fuck it, 20 hours almost of games, probably there was some goofy

14:56:48.960 --> 14:56:52.120
We asked East Post Thomas that you had to do it and you pulled through.

14:56:52.240 --> 14:56:55.200
I'm sure the DNA really, really kicked in today.

14:56:55.200 --> 14:57:00.800
And somehow both of you at Freaky hours managed to perform at a deep high level.

14:57:00.840 --> 14:57:03.600
So I respect both of your respect to both.

14:57:03.600 --> 14:57:06.440
Like pig, you were playing, didn't you even sleep?

14:57:06.440 --> 14:57:09.280
Like you're, you're playing it like you're, you played at like your 11 p.m.

14:57:09.280 --> 14:57:12.080
to wake up and then you stayed all night to wait for the groovy match.

14:57:12.080 --> 14:57:12.640
Is that true?

14:57:13.600 --> 14:57:13.960
Yeah.

14:57:13.960 --> 14:57:15.720
You know, I've been training my whole life for this.

14:57:15.720 --> 14:57:18.040
A big congrats by the way, groovy mad, mad flame.

14:57:18.040 --> 14:57:22.440
I was really fun. But yeah, I've been I've been training for this my whole life, you know, being in

14:57:22.440 --> 14:57:29.000
Australia, I'm used to flying like 30 hours to go commentate events. So weird sleep schedule

14:57:29.000 --> 14:57:33.880
adjustment is something I'm good at during like, you know, COVID or the remote commentary. It's

14:57:33.880 --> 14:57:39.240
like always European time zone for RTS. So I'm like, Oh, my shift starts at 1am. All right, let's

14:57:39.240 --> 14:57:43.640
let's go. I'm going through a week straight, flip my sleep schedule. And then I'm going to flip it

14:57:43.640 --> 14:57:48.480
back when that week of casting is over. So I mean, it's not, it's you're never in peak

14:57:48.480 --> 14:57:52.560
condition, but there's a lot of little tricks, you know, you got to like yesterday, I like

14:57:52.560 --> 14:57:56.960
finished, I did all my replay review, we did some coaching, I thought about the ideas

14:57:56.960 --> 14:58:01.720
I wanted to do. And then I was like, okay, I have to like, I have to go jog and like

14:58:01.720 --> 14:58:06.640
exhaust myself exercising, because I need to try and sleep at 6pm so I can wake up at

14:58:06.640 --> 14:58:07.640
midnight.

14:58:07.640 --> 14:58:08.640
That's crazy.

14:58:08.640 --> 14:58:12.080
I actually managed to get some like not terrible sleep. And then I was up all night after that.

14:58:12.080 --> 14:58:13.520
So it was, it was a good journey.

14:58:13.520 --> 14:58:15.140
I was struggling a few times.

14:58:15.140 --> 14:58:16.760
I was going out, getting a bit of sunshine,

14:58:16.760 --> 14:58:18.360
doing a bit of a stretch in between the games,

14:58:18.360 --> 14:58:20.800
trying to stay alert, a bit of coffee helped.

14:58:20.800 --> 14:58:23.500
But yeah, there was a few moments there in the finals

14:58:23.500 --> 14:58:25.220
where I thought I was just getting super tilted.

14:58:25.220 --> 14:58:27.720
I was like, why am I making mistakes?

14:58:27.720 --> 14:58:29.000
And I'm like, we're both making mistakes.

14:58:29.000 --> 14:58:30.800
It's like five AM for Grubby as well.

14:58:30.800 --> 14:58:33.960
Let's freaking like lock in, stop tilting yourself, man.

14:58:33.960 --> 14:58:37.280
And I was happy that I ended up kind of pushing Grubby

14:58:37.280 --> 14:58:39.060
towards the end because I felt a little bit like

14:58:39.060 --> 14:58:40.480
I was tripping over my own feet.

14:58:40.480 --> 14:58:42.920
And then I'm glad it made the last few games

14:58:42.920 --> 14:58:44.120
like a bit more back and forth.

14:58:44.120 --> 14:58:45.400
We got to fight a bit.

14:58:45.400 --> 14:58:47.520
Cause I wanted it to be a brawl towards the end, you know?

14:58:47.520 --> 14:58:48.920
Whichever one of us won,

14:58:48.920 --> 14:58:50.960
I didn't want it to be one guy messes up,

14:58:50.960 --> 14:58:53.160
just gets housed for the whole game,

14:58:53.160 --> 14:58:55.840
runs his villages into a mango or does something stupid.

14:58:55.840 --> 14:58:57.640
I felt like we got to actually fight a bit

14:58:57.640 --> 14:58:58.840
and that was really, really cool.

14:58:58.840 --> 14:59:00.360
So well earned.

14:59:00.360 --> 14:59:01.880
Well done, Gravi, GG man.

14:59:02.720 --> 14:59:04.200
Thank you so much, Pig.

14:59:04.200 --> 14:59:05.680
So it was a very well phrased.

14:59:05.680 --> 14:59:07.480
Well, why couldn't you just make it easy?

14:59:07.480 --> 14:59:08.840
Do it, why did this?

14:59:08.840 --> 14:59:13.840
I could I could see your hands and your brain in every individual

14:59:13.840 --> 14:59:18.020
Bombered cannon. Yeah, you were controlling them like a fucking tentacle octopus

14:59:21.520 --> 14:59:26.500
Yeah, but I have boxy I've got hoof needs and I was just like oh my god

14:59:26.500 --> 14:59:32.760
Can you just I just I just like realized at some point if I can't have like having your in your worker lines or something

14:59:32.760 --> 14:59:37.360
There's just you're just never gonna get hit. I'm like damn it grab me stop get distracted

14:59:37.360 --> 14:59:43.800
And you're like you were just locked in on the front surrounding me with castles. I was like, no, I just can't catch any mistakes from you, man

14:59:43.800 --> 14:59:46.120
I like that trench warfare

14:59:46.120 --> 14:59:52.360
I legitimately think if we play two more arabia games unless I get like an insanely good start like where you accidentally murdered five of your

14:59:52.360 --> 14:59:54.840
Own chickens like I still think you're the upper dog

14:59:58.720 --> 15:00:01.920
Fortress was filthy apparently I made the wrong name

15:00:01.920 --> 15:00:08.920
Yeah, actually can we both because I don't know how I won that game either other than sergeants do good against violences

15:00:08.920 --> 15:00:11.920
What should grubby have built? Should he have built more like abs or something? What should he have done?

15:00:11.920 --> 15:00:13.920
Can I answer?

15:00:13.920 --> 15:00:15.920
Yeah, go ahead please grubby

15:00:15.920 --> 15:00:21.920
I should have made war elephants and a ratan, a ratan for DPS and an elephant for tanking

15:00:21.920 --> 15:00:22.920
What do you think, Hera?

15:00:22.920 --> 15:00:27.920
Yeah, with the five relics that's very solid but the real unit you need is full ratan archer

15:00:27.920 --> 15:00:32.560
It's a very underrated unit, but you guys pissed me the hell off by going Arbalest

15:00:32.560 --> 15:00:37.140
But you have amazing unique units that shoots arrows like everybody did it

15:00:37.140 --> 15:00:44.160
It's a game Chukunu never used Ratan Archer never used Genoese Crossman never used everybody's going Arbalest all the time

15:00:44.160 --> 15:00:50.140
It's funny, but I've never used that thing. I just throw away tissue

15:00:50.460 --> 15:00:55.340
Like I don't know how they micro like they have like this wind up in attack. I used like 10 of them

15:00:55.340 --> 15:00:56.940
I was like, nah, this unit sucks.

15:00:56.940 --> 15:00:58.140
Yeah, yeah.

15:00:58.140 --> 15:01:00.540
It's weird until you stay away from it.

15:01:00.540 --> 15:01:01.540
I totally understand.

15:01:01.540 --> 15:01:02.740
Is it just better?

15:01:02.740 --> 15:01:04.460
Is it just better than Arvelous?

15:01:04.460 --> 15:01:07.740
It has one extra attack, and it's also tankier.

15:01:07.740 --> 15:01:11.260
So that really helps in a lot of those late game fights.

15:01:11.260 --> 15:01:12.420
I think it's not straight up.

15:01:12.420 --> 15:01:12.940
It's a paper.

15:01:12.940 --> 15:01:14.020
Pius Alm is crazy, right?

15:01:14.020 --> 15:01:16.140
Yeah, Pius Alm is really high, which

15:01:16.140 --> 15:01:18.780
is great against skirmish, it's great against scorpions.

15:01:18.780 --> 15:01:20.700
It's great at running through towers,

15:01:20.700 --> 15:01:21.980
castles, towers, et cetera.

15:01:21.980 --> 15:01:23.660
And it's also a little bit faster than Arb,

15:01:23.660 --> 15:01:26.780
So, like, better against the Jhonorator is just a better unit overall.

15:01:27.980 --> 15:01:28.940
Free coaching again.

15:01:29.220 --> 15:01:31.100
Yeah, another grubby coaching session.

15:01:31.100 --> 15:01:31.820
Look at us go.

15:01:34.180 --> 15:01:37.540
But guys, we have to wrap this up a 15 hour stream so we can talk for hours

15:01:37.540 --> 15:01:39.740
and I'd love to, but guys, first I call it here.

15:01:40.380 --> 15:01:44.540
Last we're not going to replay replay coaching here, but he played coaching one more hour.

15:01:45.860 --> 15:01:47.980
Question first, question first, question first.

15:01:47.980 --> 15:01:51.700
I haven't told my wife yet that there's team games tomorrow today, because it's

15:01:51.700 --> 15:01:53.100
six a.m. Yeah, yeah.

15:01:53.100 --> 15:01:57.060
I don't know if she's gonna be okay with it. I don't know if I'm gonna be okay with it, but

15:01:57.900 --> 15:01:59.660
When is it?

15:01:59.660 --> 15:02:05.500
16 GMT for the first match the second match is after it's gonna come to the second match only everyone only plays one match

15:02:05.740 --> 15:02:12.740
It's a voluntary you don't have to come there's money if you come of course, but it's a voluntary if you can come if you want

15:02:12.740 --> 15:02:16.340
If it's too much, it's completely understandable a 16 GMT first match second match

15:02:16.340 --> 15:02:22.380
Maybe it's probably two hours after it realistically. It's purely for fun. It's not anything to determine purely for fun

15:02:22.380 --> 15:02:26.940
I might even like one view one exist. Yeah, it's always competition for you your tryhard

15:02:26.940 --> 15:02:30.700
I know I can relate a little bit, but I might jump in I might play a couple of you guys

15:02:30.700 --> 15:02:33.420
It's purely for fun, but there is money on the team game. So

15:02:34.320 --> 15:02:36.660
It's a good show for the viewers. It'll be fun

15:02:37.860 --> 15:02:44.220
Okay, yeah, hope you guys enjoy the five hour glaze session in the cast of you both. Yeah

15:02:44.220 --> 15:02:49.420
You guys listen back to that. It's just five hours of glazing you guys the improvement

15:02:49.860 --> 15:02:55.820
Like the evolution from both of you. It was crazy this tournament by the way the improvement was not people

15:02:55.820 --> 15:02:59.300
Yes, it's insane how much you guys improved throughout the tournament

15:03:00.180 --> 15:03:02.180
Crazy to watch crazy

15:03:02.340 --> 15:03:05.900
Because I heard you so much. You said you thermals gonna win your motto

15:03:06.780 --> 15:03:10.580
I'll just make a shit up bro like I was that was completely bad base

15:03:11.900 --> 15:03:13.900
Dude, I thought it too

15:03:14.220 --> 15:03:19.100
No, I was just, I, I, I, you know, it's like, I don't, I'm not that good at the game.

15:03:19.140 --> 15:03:22.460
So when I saw things that I liked and the things that I like are not good.

15:03:24.140 --> 15:03:29.180
I saw your thermal, like sending villages out and he was just like proxy mining all the stone and the gold.

15:03:29.180 --> 15:03:30.180
I was like, he's getting away with it.

15:03:30.620 --> 15:03:31.220
So good.

15:03:31.540 --> 15:03:32.780
He did that again, sing, sing.

15:03:32.780 --> 15:03:35.140
And I was like, okay, he's the most aggressive dude.

15:03:35.340 --> 15:03:36.260
So that's going to work.

15:03:36.300 --> 15:03:38.260
But then everyone just kind of evolves.

15:03:38.260 --> 15:03:40.020
It's like your scouting was insane.

15:03:40.020 --> 15:03:43.700
And then the meta game became more and more pro.

15:03:43.700 --> 15:03:47.140
You know, we just gave more and more pro, which was just

15:03:48.900 --> 15:03:51.860
It's not a big difference between pig and me and the pros anymore. I feel like

15:03:53.060 --> 15:03:57.060
Dude at the end I was gonna say like at the end you're playing pro matchups

15:03:57.140 --> 15:04:00.180
You're playing them. How are you supposed to you're playing pretty damn well?

15:04:00.420 --> 15:04:04.180
You guys are just missing a few timings, but this is way higher level than 1700

15:04:04.420 --> 15:04:10.420
It's something like 2000 elos or even a little higher in some things like the knowledge there super top tier

15:04:10.420 --> 15:04:15.420
Like seriously, genuinely playing very, very good Age of Empires 2.

15:04:15.420 --> 15:04:19.420
It's like semi-pro level. I'm not even joking. I'm not exaggerating.

15:04:19.420 --> 15:04:21.420
Thank you.

15:04:21.420 --> 15:04:25.420
We appreciate it. I think you're glazing a little bit, but I appreciate it.

15:04:25.420 --> 15:04:31.420
Honestly, I feel like we've absorbed more knowledge in the last few weeks than in the rest of our lives, you know?

15:04:31.420 --> 15:04:34.420
My brain is overloaded with Age of Empires, so I don't know, man.

15:04:34.420 --> 15:04:36.420
I'm looking forward to the team games tomorrow.

15:04:36.420 --> 15:04:40.100
I haven't played a team game of M5s in like six years, but it should be really fun.

15:04:40.100 --> 15:04:41.300
Yeah, it would be a lot of fun.

15:04:41.300 --> 15:04:42.300
Thank you guys.

15:04:42.300 --> 15:04:45.300
If you guys are saying any last words, you can take some time to say that, but otherwise

15:04:45.300 --> 15:04:49.540
we'll just call it here and it's been a great tournament, perfect way to end it.

15:04:49.540 --> 15:04:50.540
I've said it all, you guys.

15:04:50.540 --> 15:04:52.700
GGs, we'll start with fun.

15:04:52.700 --> 15:04:53.700
Take care, Robert.

15:04:53.700 --> 15:04:54.700
GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs,

15:04:54.700 --> 15:04:55.700
GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs, GGs,

15:04:55.700 --> 15:05:01.120
Take care guys. I'm gonna hop out of here. Take care everyone. Have a good night and thank you all for a wonderful event. Peace

15:05:01.860 --> 15:05:05.920
W. It's a W. It's not let's W. It's not let's wait for a second. Peace

15:05:08.100 --> 15:05:09.380
Ah

15:05:09.380 --> 15:05:14.800
Guys, what a fantastic fantastic fantastic event. I am so beyond

15:05:15.660 --> 15:05:20.060
Happy proud of the work not just done by me, but done from the people helping me

15:05:20.940 --> 15:05:23.960
Such a good event. I'm actually really sad. It's over

15:05:23.960 --> 15:05:29.200
Just looking at the bracket here one last time. Thank you all a sincere a sincere

15:05:29.200 --> 15:05:33.880
Thank you to all of you guys for all the support from the people gifts and subs

15:05:34.380 --> 15:05:37.280
Donating people just watching sharing with your friends

15:05:38.360 --> 15:05:44.080
Everyone in the chat you helping the streamers, you know support on the streamers helping them learn strategies

15:05:44.600 --> 15:05:51.080
Everybody who participated in this event was a huge factor as to why it was such a success. I'm really sad it's over

15:05:51.080 --> 15:05:52.720
I gave it my all.

15:05:52.720 --> 15:05:54.240
I'm not the best caster.

15:05:54.240 --> 15:05:56.800
I'm mostly a player, of course,

15:05:56.800 --> 15:05:59.520
but I tried to bring the utmost energy

15:05:59.520 --> 15:06:01.120
that I could to the cast.

15:06:01.120 --> 15:06:02.920
I tried to include as many people as possible.

15:06:02.920 --> 15:06:04.960
We had such a diverse casting lineup.

15:06:04.960 --> 15:06:06.640
I think that added a lot of fun to it.

15:06:06.640 --> 15:06:09.400
I think I got better with the casting as I went on.

15:06:09.400 --> 15:06:10.560
And there's a lot of uncertainties

15:06:10.560 --> 15:06:12.160
around like different things in the event,

15:06:12.160 --> 15:06:14.960
like managing cameras, I had no idea how to do it.

15:06:14.960 --> 15:06:16.280
You know, managing players,

15:06:16.280 --> 15:06:18.400
I obviously had a lot of help from my admin.

15:06:18.400 --> 15:06:21.000
There's a lot of things that is just such an uncertain

15:06:21.000 --> 15:06:24.760
Going into this event that we figured out last minute and it worked so well.

15:06:24.760 --> 15:06:26.200
It worked at the production quality.

15:06:26.400 --> 15:06:27.520
It was kind of a meme at first.

15:06:27.520 --> 15:06:29.040
That in the end, it was like kind of decent.

15:06:29.040 --> 15:06:30.160
It's not like good production.

15:06:30.160 --> 15:06:31.360
It looked like decent production.

15:06:31.680 --> 15:06:32.680
And I'm kind of proud of that.

15:06:32.960 --> 15:06:37.040
But all of us to say is that next time, like, by the way, we did this, we did

15:06:37.040 --> 15:06:38.160
this event last minute.

15:06:38.680 --> 15:06:42.680
Microsoft told me a month before the event, a month, they told me we have a

15:06:42.680 --> 15:06:45.840
slot here, some other term had dropped $10,000.

15:06:46.320 --> 15:06:47.520
Do you want, do you want the spot?

15:06:47.520 --> 15:06:49.160
Cause I told them it was supposed to be for December.

15:06:49.160 --> 15:06:51.280
It was supposed to be for December of 2026.

15:06:51.780 --> 15:06:52.780
I told them screw it.

15:06:52.880 --> 15:06:53.480
I'll take it.

15:06:53.760 --> 15:06:55.720
I knew nothing of how to organize the tournament.

15:06:55.720 --> 15:06:56.840
I've never done anything like this.

15:06:57.160 --> 15:07:00.680
I took the spot, took whatever money they gave and made the best out of it.

15:07:00.680 --> 15:07:02.480
And the show was absolutely abysmal.

15:07:02.720 --> 15:07:03.360
Uh, abysmal.

15:07:04.160 --> 15:07:05.200
I'm tired.

15:07:05.260 --> 15:07:06.840
The show is absolutely out of this world.

15:07:06.840 --> 15:07:07.980
It was the opposite of abysmal.

15:07:07.980 --> 15:07:08.780
So amazing.

15:07:09.400 --> 15:07:10.320
It was amazing.

15:07:10.320 --> 15:07:12.480
It was the best thing I could have ever asked for.

15:07:12.720 --> 15:07:13.920
It was so much fun.

15:07:14.320 --> 15:07:16.080
Uh, everything was in the ladder grind.

15:07:16.080 --> 15:07:20.720
To the tournament someone said for you and slip up. I promise

15:07:23.720 --> 15:07:28.280
This is the worst show ever terrible finals probably starting that good

15:07:32.080 --> 15:07:34.720
You matters a terrible cast and you didn't make me laugh once

15:07:36.160 --> 15:07:38.960
No, that's so funny then. That's so funny

15:07:38.960 --> 15:07:45.560
But did everything from the memes to the games to the chat is all out of this freaking world

15:07:45.560 --> 15:07:50.200
I'm so beyond blessed for all of you guys and your support.

15:07:50.200 --> 15:07:51.920
Seriously, I'm actually really sad it's over.

15:07:51.920 --> 15:07:54.160
We got team give us some more to look forward to.

15:07:54.160 --> 15:07:56.160
But all I want to say is that we've learned so much

15:07:56.160 --> 15:07:57.560
of this event, I can promise you guys,

15:07:57.560 --> 15:07:59.160
we'll do my absolute best to be guys

15:07:59.160 --> 15:08:01.320
a better King's Gauntlet for next year.

15:08:01.320 --> 15:08:04.120
God willing, we hit the sub goal you guys delivered

15:08:04.120 --> 15:08:05.200
and it's my turn to deliver.

15:08:05.200 --> 15:08:08.760
So I hope you guys enjoyed the events.

15:08:08.760 --> 15:08:11.000
We can let Roxy with some last words come in

15:08:11.000 --> 15:08:12.760
and then I'll wrap up the show.

15:08:12.760 --> 15:08:15.240
Thank you all once again, Roxy with some words

15:08:15.240 --> 15:08:17.480
And we'll go from there, please.

15:08:18.680 --> 15:08:19.480
You can have a chair.

15:08:19.640 --> 15:08:20.400
You can have a chair.

15:08:22.000 --> 15:08:22.960
Oh, hello there, chat.

15:08:23.960 --> 15:08:27.480
I just want to say two things, well, a couple, but two important things.

15:08:27.720 --> 15:08:31.080
When you guys thank the admin or the admin work, it's actually not me.

15:08:31.120 --> 15:08:32.040
I did nothing.

15:08:32.080 --> 15:08:35.560
It's all the Virgil with the, with the website and hamburgers.

15:08:35.640 --> 15:08:37.280
He did absolutely everything.

15:08:37.320 --> 15:08:38.160
I did nothing.

15:08:38.160 --> 15:08:43.280
I just complained that Hamza was building another family with another man.

15:08:43.440 --> 15:08:44.440
That's all I did.

15:08:44.440 --> 15:08:46.440
Alright, so you have to thank-

15:08:46.440 --> 15:08:48.440
That other man is a champion.

15:08:48.440 --> 15:08:50.440
Uh-huh, anyways.

15:08:50.440 --> 15:08:53.440
So it's not me, I don't want your thank yous.

15:08:53.440 --> 15:08:56.440
Go to Hamburgers and go to the Virgil.

15:08:56.440 --> 15:08:59.440
Big shout out to all the players.

15:08:59.440 --> 15:09:02.440
You guys don't have access to a lot of the channels that were in the Discord

15:09:02.440 --> 15:09:04.440
because they were for like the players,

15:09:04.440 --> 15:09:06.440
but they were so wholesome.

15:09:06.440 --> 15:09:09.440
It felt like a family, like they were talking each other out.

15:09:09.440 --> 15:09:12.440
They were like, go your thermi, go grabby, go this, go that.

15:09:12.440 --> 15:09:18.080
it was like so cute you know it's like oh that's so cute and last thing thank you

15:09:18.080 --> 15:09:22.640
guys for supporting the event of course without you this would not be possible

15:09:22.640 --> 15:09:26.560
and I see Hamza super happy and seeing him happy makes me think that he's

15:09:26.560 --> 15:09:32.840
thinking about Grubby but it also makes me happy you know yeah yeah also oh I

15:09:32.840 --> 15:09:36.080
don't want to break your heart live on stream but someone posted a screenshot

15:09:36.080 --> 15:09:40.560
that Grubby said if I didn't have a wife and I was gay so the dot Yamato

15:09:40.560 --> 15:09:42.560
So you will not be his first choice?

15:09:42.560 --> 15:09:44.560
Oh my god!

15:09:44.560 --> 15:09:46.560
Oh my goodness!

15:09:46.560 --> 15:09:48.560
Anyways, sorry, sorry.

15:09:48.560 --> 15:09:50.560
I didn't want to bring it to you, but it's on the square.

15:09:50.560 --> 15:09:52.560
Like it's public information.

15:09:52.560 --> 15:09:54.560
Dude, second place is the amount of no shame.

15:09:54.560 --> 15:09:56.560
Making that even second though,

15:09:56.560 --> 15:09:58.560
we don't really know that.

15:09:58.560 --> 15:10:00.560
It makes me feel a little bit bad, I'm not going to lie.

15:10:00.560 --> 15:10:02.560
Sorry, sorry. I feel like we're anti-bent on the branch.

15:10:02.560 --> 15:10:04.560
No, but it's okay.

15:10:04.560 --> 15:10:06.560
Thank you for the casters and co-casters as well.

15:10:06.560 --> 15:10:08.560
I want to give a huge shout out to Liri.

15:10:08.560 --> 15:10:14.400
I want to give a huge shout out to Liri actually because he coached a lot of the players and he

15:10:14.400 --> 15:10:18.720
stayed up all night talking, you know when you were getting jealous about Grubby? He was on

15:10:18.720 --> 15:10:24.400
Liri and Liri was helping him through the games. That bastard Liri. Yeah, he took your hobby. I know.

15:10:24.400 --> 15:10:28.400
Grubby the hubby is gone though. I sent Grubby a DM and he didn't reply to me by the way.

15:10:28.400 --> 15:10:35.360
Yeah, he was busy. Bro, you're not in his priority. I sent him a nice DM. You know I sent him this.

15:10:35.360 --> 15:10:39.200
Told grubby I said where's grubby a lot of DMs today

15:10:39.200 --> 15:10:42.320
So I said I also dropped in your journey lock-in champ

15:10:42.320 --> 15:10:46.160
You got this with a flex emote and a fire emote. I was cheering him up

15:10:46.640 --> 15:10:52.320
Yeah, and you know what else was cheering him up leery bro leery and that's what matters to him

15:10:52.320 --> 15:10:55.560
All right, and maybe I'm out of two so get in line

15:10:55.560 --> 15:10:59.440
I know what it feels like to be in line in the freaking line

15:10:59.440 --> 15:11:11.400
Anyways, thank you very much to everyone. I hope you guys enjoyed the event and hopefully
