Red's refusal to get unit upgrades actually infuriated me. He could have easily won the game earlier on by just getting blacksmith upgrades with his thousands of floating resources.
I've started playing as Incas on this map and love tower rushing with them. Hit and miss though in terms of success. I'm around the 900-1000 ELO range. I favourite Lowlands, and ban Arena, Megarandom and the water map.
I figured Blue would win, betting on the aggro player is USUALLY safe if the other person is a passive turtle. But I HOPED Red would win and was cheering for him. Respect any LEL who knows the importance of booming. Those wall gaps truly sucked. It made Red have to be so reactive all game.
Red got a little close when blue just stopped producing units and both his trebs fell apart, if he had some gold to use that newfound space to make paladins he might have been able to pull it back from the brink
12:46 _"OMG I can't stand the bell!"_ What's the more efficient way to defend, here? I know the bell pulls vills from too far away sometimes but I need a fast way to shoot down a passing scout or defend a small attack. If you click-drag from the farms and alt-click (I'm guessing this is what I'm supposed to do) will they get back to work when I un-garrison? [I'm neither of these players, I'm just learning from scratch after being away from the game for more than a decade away.]
I don't know about Machado but valencasla25 is Argentinian for sure, Valen is a shorter for Valentín or Valentino/Valentina, and CASLA is Club Atlético San Lorenzo de Almagro, a football team from Argentina (which Viggo Mortensen is a fan of) so definetely could be BR server.
I think it hurt red really much to lack blacksmith upgrades. Getting to Cavalier on feudal age armor and attack upgrades is just painful. Getting to a trash war with the blacksmith so poorly done is going to be a big struggle too. Though the macro and production was decent.
100%. I don't get why T90 blamed it all on the holes in the wall. Watching tons of skirmishers with no armor, bodkin arrow and ballistics do all the work was painful.
@@BillyBlaze6907 well for content obviously xD he could blame the lack of blacksmith upgrades in LEL but how many times he would say that, instead he looks for newer things to blame on, btw I agree that one of the major reasons he lost was blacksmith upgrades.
I ban arabia because I'm a filthy casual and I assume there's going to be a lot of tryhards there, with more smurfs as well. And I ban arena because I don't want to play a 2 hour game after a 10 hour workday lmao
Red got Champions and Paladin but didn't produce a single Paladin? Also he had 70+ skirmishers but didn't bother to have more than 2 upgrades for them.
Nice game T90, tkx for good content If you guys are looking for a sample of the elo, maybe, as T90 states in the beginning, not the best sample... 2 weeks after the game both players dropped elo and the difference got higher between them Expect earlier Feudal agression at this elo
same with other drop off buildings, i.e. vil with food will drop it off when he finishes building mining camp. It was not always like this, but it has been for a long time now.
It's indeed a good tip I just learned today. It's hard to trust when all _those_ work but wood to berries doesn't. I've been clicking to drop off even before building things because I've been so paranoid about it. I better let it go, though. I bet speed/time is more important than _maybe_ losing
Yeah, building any "economic" building makes the villager drop off the resources successfully, even if it's the wrong kind of building for the resource they're carrying. So finishing building a lumber or mining camp, mill, farm, TC, and I think dock makes the villager successfully drop off any resources they're carrying.
I’m about 850 ELO and I have to say going CA as Teutons is interesting lol. I probably would go light cav into Teutonic knights early imperial if I saw he committed to eagles early game and get only attack upgrades
Honestly, Red would have won this if he had gone for knights earlier, done his blacksmith upgrades and made a castle earlier. A few Teutonic Knights would have been great against the Eagles. Red was fantastic at booming, but his unit control and his unit composition really let him down. Add to this a few knights raid in blue's economy and Blue was toasted.
teuton scouts are on hussar lvl, they beat light cav - theyre like all teuton units: slow, but armored the same reason why teuton pala beats frank pala 1o1 goes for scouts
Teuton trash war scouts have bloodlines and +2 teuton armor they are tanky, no husbandry makes the slower But the same reason for teuton palas to beat franks goes to their scouts Never underestimate them - i did so too(as a teuton main xD), but they are actually strong SotL made a video about hussars and teuton scout are above lcav - i tech for palas anyway and used scouts more... It really pays off@@krystofcisar469
wow i cant believe there are 800 elos with that dark age, defo 600 dark age. They shouldn't really get high given how aggro people are in feudal usually
there are so many moments in games when taking some staglor trees is a good ideea but I always think "what would T90 say" and i go on and loose the game cause i miss 15 wood
He checks their ELO before the game starts and types it into Capture Age before casting starts. Sometimes it's live, sometimes it's a recorded game (usually without watching much of it) but the ELO is from before the game start.... hmm. Now that I've typed that out, I'm not so sure. If it's recorded, the ELO probably updates before he has a chance to cast. Now I'm curious, too. I already wondered how much each game affects their ELO and what the before and after on this particular match was.
Not sure if it was classic AOE2 or AOE1, but I think you had to drop off resources or you lose them. It seems like a hold over. I know I do this all the time without thinking about it lol
If i queue up 2v2 and ban black forest, yet enough of my opponents favorite it, when they are the only players i still get matched on black forest. Which is like - every time. Ban doesn't work..
when 800+ elo is low you know the gaming community has evolved a ton! i dont look at these two as low at all, but i guess they might be. or they are a new account that is still climbing.
Watching aoe2 streams I noticed that for some players, when you've a part of a building be behind another building, the shape of the building that's behind is highlighted in the players color. I don't think I have that. How does one get that?
He didnt use it that much I think. Blue used ranged and castles alot earlyier and more I think. He peobably would have got more value from melee upgrades.
I have played.... maybe 20 games and got back into de a while ago after.... over a decade without playing aoe 2. One of the first things I did was ban and favorite maps. Though I may ne more "casual" than new to the game.
I bought AoE:DE during a holiday sale in late November or early December this year. I'm so rusty/bad that I'm still having trouble with moderate AI. These LEL games have been giving me some good tips. I don't play ranked yet, not because I'm so bad, but because I have no confidence that my kids won't interrupt me every few minutes in the middle of a game.
Dude i tried to fall asleep with this video but Everytime i heard that Townbell i cracked my ass off hahahaahah
ahahahahaha
Careful, you might get nightmares about idle eco
The Villager Sacrifice low elo video lives rent free in my head when I try to sleep.
Time to set your phone alarm to the town bell chime, guaranteed to wake up
Same here.
rule number one of AoE2 : there is always a hole
though I have to respect machato. He defended with only teuton trash against a bunch of gold units.
shoutout to ZeroEmpires, the biggest AOE youtuber before T90. he even had a WololoHole emote.
Red's refusal to get unit upgrades actually infuriated me. He could have easily won the game earlier on by just getting blacksmith upgrades with his thousands of floating resources.
THERE'S SOME HOOOLES IN THIS HOUSE. THERE'S SOME HOOOLES IN THIS HOUSE.
After a pretty slow start this ended up being a really entertaining match-up with lots of back and forth action. Great stuff!
I've started playing as Incas on this map and love tower rushing with them. Hit and miss though in terms of success. I'm around the 900-1000 ELO range. I favourite Lowlands, and ban Arena, Megarandom and the water map.

Or tutonic knights, those could have put in work against eagles while the skirms pick off the archers that threaten them
thx for the spoiler
You clearly haven't watched iSit casts. Ultimate turtle chad
Can you believe those eagle warriors running through the narrow streets and disappearing from the city? 😂😂
12:46 _"OMG I can't stand the bell!"_
What's the more efficient way to defend, here?
I know the bell pulls vills from too far away sometimes but I need a fast way to shoot down a passing scout or defend a small attack. If you click-drag from the farms and alt-click (I'm guessing this is what I'm supposed to do) will they get back to work when I un-garrison?
[I'm neither of these players, I'm just learning from scratch after being away from the game for more than a decade away.]
Yes. When you're done, just click F and the vils will go back to work.
Highly recommend T90s TC tips video. We've all been there, respect you wanting to learn.
The return to work hot key (F by default) sends all your garrisoned vills back to the task they were doing just like "unringing the bell"
I love your stuff man! I've learned a lot! i hope you had a great holiday season!
That was an enthralling battle, really enjoyed watching that 👌
2:33 moonwalking pig XD
I don't know about Machado but valencasla25 is Argentinian for sure, Valen is a shorter for Valentín or Valentino/Valentina, and CASLA is Club Atlético San Lorenzo de Almagro, a football team from Argentina (which Viggo Mortensen is a fan of) so definetely could be BR server.

Cmon they have to know that T90 is gonna cast the game, there is no way 800 Elo would play like this.
''very solid low elo legend players''
*red proceeds to build 4 houses at the start*
Better than zero houses, I guess.
You did say "Holy House Wall!" the moment you saw them.. Talk about foreshadowing!
Yes instead of hearing the town bell we should hear Tristan screaming.
I ban arabia because I'm a filthy casual and I assume there's going to be a lot of tryhards there, with more smurfs as well. And I ban arena because I don't want to play a 2 hour game after a 10 hour workday lmao
The best defense is a good offense.
Top 5 LEL moments of the year, guaranteed
43:22 T90 thinks that's a question, it's not.
After reaching 1,100 ELO I again and again realize that some of the mistakes these dudes on that ELO do are painful to watch.
The most trusted halbs in all the land! I could just hear the herald say it. Had me laughing the for the remainder of the game! 😂
Machado not making a single Teutonic Knight is why he lost.
At 12:03 3 eagles form a wall and push a villager that was walking towards the TC and seem to cancel her command, is that suposed to happen?
No but the bell was canceled right after while she was being pushed.
HEELLLLLLOOOOOOO ALLLLLLLLLLLL
Hey 👋
Gm cutie
Red got Champions and Paladin but didn't produce a single Paladin?
Also he had 70+ skirmishers but didn't bother to have more than 2 upgrades for them.
Always go for the margaritas
More wall videos please 😂

wait! you dont have to drop off wood before you make a farm........................ been doing that for years (thats a great tip)
same with other drop off buildings, i.e. vil with food will drop it off when he finishes building mining camp. It was not always like this, but it has been for a long time now.

I'm weak that 🔔 🔔
For the ban/favourites. I usually don't favourite any map, but I always ban Arabia and Arena.
44:55 it’s eco tourism
We ned McClain!
Always a pleasure
Stick to a civ and write out some sticky notes for your rock paper scissors counters your civ has
I’m about 850 ELO and I have to say going CA as Teutons is interesting lol. I probably would go light cav into Teutonic knights early imperial if I saw he committed to eagles early game and get only attack upgrades
Teutons dont get light cav btw, only scouts. Kts, Paladin raids would have been the answer. Just focus on blue eco, not the attack. Btw. I am 1400
Are you crazy, T90? Get that margarita.
Honestly, Red would have won this if he had gone for knights earlier, done his blacksmith upgrades and made a castle earlier. A few Teutonic Knights would have been great against the Eagles. Red was fantastic at booming, but his unit control and his unit composition really let him down. Add to this a few knights raid in blue's economy and Blue was toasted.
margarita seems like a good idea with loved ones for new years, and your subscribers are probably getting old enough to know that 🙂
Paladins without armour upgrades hurts to watch
We need a town center bell emote and a dock ding emote.
Enjoy the margaritas!!!
PLEASE please. Ask CaptureAge to add a townbell counter.
The straggler trees are ugly and must go. Hahaha
MargariT90
t90 exposed to too much townbell as a kid
teuton scouts are on hussar lvl, they beat light cav - theyre like all teuton units: slow, but armored
the same reason why teuton pala beats frank pala 1o1 goes for scouts
maybe malay lightcav they canj take easily :D
Teuton trash war scouts have bloodlines and +2 teuton armor
they are tanky, no husbandry makes the slower
But the same reason for teuton palas to beat franks goes to their scouts
Never underestimate them - i did so too(as a teuton main xD), but they are actually strong
SotL made a video about hussars and teuton scout are above lcav - i tech for palas anyway and used scouts more... It really pays off@@krystofcisar469

hmmm I'm playing as a civ that has cavalry, against a civ that doesn't have cavalry. What should I make? Oh, yeah, archers.
Nice nap to this one.
wow i cant believe there are 800 elos with that dark age, defo 600 dark age. They shouldn't really get high given how aggro people are in feudal usually
I kinda hope it is the 3rd baseman for the Padres...
800 elo is considered low?!
*laughs in 400 elo*
I guessed 62 on population. I'm shocked I was so close
How was the Margherita?
I always use ban and favorite.
there are so many moments in games when taking some staglor trees is a good ideea but I always think "what would T90 say" and i go on and loose the game cause i miss 15 wood
GG HAPPY NEW YEAR😎
Is ELO set on these matches b4 or after the game played out?? Just curious...
He checks their ELO before the game starts and types it into Capture Age before casting starts.
Sometimes it's live, sometimes it's a recorded game (usually without watching much of it) but the ELO is from before the game start.... hmm. Now that I've typed that out, I'm not so sure. If it's recorded, the ELO probably updates before he has a chance to cast.
Now I'm curious, too.
I already wondered how much each game affects their ELO and what the before and after on this particular match was.
Had blue massed units instead of sending them to die one by one they would've won 20 minutes earlier kek
Not sure if it was classic AOE2 or AOE1, but I think you had to drop off resources or you lose them. It seems like a hold over. I know I do this all the time without thinking about it lol
If i queue up 2v2 and ban black forest, yet enough of my opponents favorite it, when they are the only players i still get matched on black forest.
Which is like - every time.
Ban doesn't work..
That's messed up. It seems like, if all favorites are banned, it should pull a random map instead, not override a ban. That defeats the whole purpose.
they definitely work in 1v1s tho :D
I put this on my speaker and it scared my wife lol, this my first comment but been loving the content and started playing age again
What’s the right number of vills on one boar?
6/7??
such a gg

Watching aoe2 streams I noticed that for some players, when you've a part of a building be behind another building, the shape of the building that's behind is highlighted in the players color.
I don't think I have that. How does one get that?
how to rotate gate? on laptop
If red had just kept sending scouts into blues eco he would have won.
Gg lmao
Hi T90 👋
Hey T90, will the mic audio return to the past years quality? ..i am looking at this Low Elo playlist and the sound is clearly worse.
Question from low elo player: isnt it super bad red didnt have ballistics for the entire game?
He didnt use it that much I think. Blue used ranged and castles alot earlyier and more I think.
He peobably would have got more value from melee upgrades.
@@nonamex6536 would it not have been beneficial for all the skirms red had?
this end game by blue was so poor
I have played.... maybe 20 games and got back into de a while ago after.... over a decade without playing aoe 2.
One of the first things I did was ban and favorite maps.
Though I may ne more "casual" than new to the game.
