There's no audio 😢

what about slayer pirates ROR?

Do have suggestion for shutting down enemy's artillery in the backline as a Lizardmen?

Hi HitmanHippo, Could you maybe go a bit into which matchups a faction is good or bad against for the 3x3 pick and ban system or what a faction does really well or not? Love the videos, very helpful!

I've been using a similar version of this for a while now. My friend, whose learning has been trying to beat it, but even im unsure how. How would you go about countering this?

My favorite faction! Perfect. I've been running Bears shredder build in a bunch of matches. I'm also a big fan of adding a build without DLC for friends just picking up the game

Are artillery worth using with empire?

Awesome. Trying this against a friend who is playing Ogre kingdoms for the first time. Doin the lords work here friend :D

Dude, yes! This is exactly the content for the TWW3 multitiplayer golden age we need!

Any chance of doing some Dark Elves or Lizardmen soon as well? Awesome and well needed content, thanks!

Awesome stuff, commenting on each for the algorhithm. Maybe sharing what the factions you introduce are strong or weak to could be helpful? Thanks!

Id think there would be more missile infantry, although ive never played dwarves 😅

Dude, Thanks so much for doing this series! I'm getting back into domination mode and this is perfect.

audio is very good 😃

great job putting these together.

love those - as a side effect getting insight on factions that I never played to be able to play against them more effective aswell

Good guide, but there's that strange noise in the background, most likely it's your fans running on max settings if you could turn it down for the sake of recording. Sadly the other guide has the same issue.

can do slaanesh if you want :D

Some might say that this video is too….short

I like how you mention the faction banner. Choosing a banner that’s similar to your opponent’s is a super important step that most beginners overlook

Thanks again for streaming this Hippo! Always nice to watch and gather ideas. Too bad in the end both of us ended up losing to the same old Dwarf gyrocopters lol

Wow, super cool!

Very nice

A map creation video would be epic

Sick games. That seeker was going crazy at 6k value.

Lmao the Ai channel logo is awesome

Recognized your name off Turin Videos good luck on yt!

Uhh, my point control in mid game really was kinda lacking ... could have grabbed some of them much earlier. Also: Armies assuming highly tactical positions and the Hippo solving maze puzzels outside of the map. Should have brought some crayons xDDD We both will get better at hype casting eventually. Probably. Maybe. It isn't even that important :eyes:

Based commentary from the Hippo man

Not even 10 vids up and already THIS type of content? xD

I've watched three patch notes reviews on this today, and this was by far the best. I like how at the end of each faction's notes, you speculate how that faction will move in the meta. Keep it up!

"Dead Saurian" Very Freudian Slip of you xD

Reject Saytang. Embrace cannon.

Man you sound tired in this one x)

I have quite a different take on the strategy of the first game. You mentioned mutliple times through mid game, that WoC should start summoning infantry, but I would say that is the worst you could do in this situation. I even would go so far, that the summoned halberds were the deciding factor of losing the game for WoC via psychological trap. Once you are that heavily commited into mobility as WoC was in the early game, the game plan from this point on is to cycle charge and rotate away at the first sign of real resistance from the enemy to stretch their forces out and find targets to collapse on. Now if you start putting infantry into the mix, you either can't rotate anymore and have to take grind fights with the opposing infantry with your shock units (bad) or you have to abandon your infantry once you pull out (also bad). I think, that trying to save the halberd unit in the mid point might have been the factor to make the decision to commit to a full fight there, which went super poorly. The halberds just served no purpose here, being summoned into double bloodletters. Any WoC infantry wouldn't want to engage with bloodletters, I think. Infantry would just be playing the game, that your opponent is strongest at. On the other hand, with strong charge units, skirmish cav and a terror beast, the marauders of khorne are so easily routed, they might as well not exist. Unless you summon infantry to fight them, they are utterly pointless. And bloodletters are probably only a bit better due to immunity to terror, but also super weak to high mass charges. So I agree with Via Animae's choice to double down on mobility and would have done it even harder, though I think maybe there was nothing left to summon. A second chaos knight to cycle the marauders and bloodletters would have been the most impactful choice at this moment, I think. Or starting to build up a little swarm of infantry, that is not easily isolated and taken down, even if it means that you summon them and then have them idle for a while. Sidenote: That fury almost winning vs the forsaken geeeeeez

One comment on the use of elite infantry like black orks and crimson killaz: The worst case for such units is to be fully kited or be stalled by sth unimportant and shot. So you need some plan to prevent that. I usually try to have the range advantage in such cases to zone out skirmishers or force the opponent to come to me with infantry, so I can pick my engagements. But you could also rule the mobility and make missile deployment (near your elites) super hard with it or swarm the field with so much cheaper infantry, that the enemy can't approach your elites.

Wow. That was a super greedy go for a tripple cap in the first one^^ And then a prime example of sunk cost fallacy throwing more and more value into a bad position to brute force it^^

I really like infantry clashes like in the Khorne vs Empire game with long and steadily shifting, forward and backward moving frontlines, balancing between breaking through and overextending. I find those are the apex fights of requiring micro, strategy and quick decision making. Very different from just feeding things into a blob fight, what happens when units have too much leadership or HP/resistance.

If you swap a couple knights of the black rose with demi halberds, they can do quite well into cold one knights

Nice one! Now do more! xD I can't comment on Deamons and Chaos Dwarfs, but the Empire starting lineup 100% fell into the imperial trend of the recent DLC to lose the game by grossly overinvesting into shooting^^ 5 expensive pieces with 4500 total cost is just too much^^ I think the right call vs bolt throwers would also have been to bring replacement long rifles instead of cannons. They get shot slowly and can be hidden in forest during marching up phase of the game. You noticed their damage (consistent with other jezzail types into elf HP q.q). They don't need too long. I agree with your comment on the dragon, that it wasn't right to try and kill it there. But I find it important to have things on the field that can actually threaten to kill the dragon to prevent it from going completely crazy on your backline, like it did here.

Love the breakdowns of strategy in dom. Subscribed!
