Okay so I have a question - why do we never see an IFV + engineer (or equivalent) at least in bases for fixing stuff up while not fighting? What's the rationale?
Takes a lot of extra micro when things are always moving is the engi Ifv is a decent cost investment. Considering how fast things move it's more worth it to spend your time moving units. If I recall engi ifv takes 4 "ticks" to repair one unit, about 10 seconds.
there only 3 uses i can think of right now in engi ifv 1.) to capture buildings/tech early on 2.) when many of your tanks are very severy damage that you have to bother go for it 3.) along side battle fortresses, these big boys arent much in numbers so alliied players have to protect/support them to the best of there abilities
So basically the answer to almost every question of why don't they... is opportunity cost. Yes using a service Depot or an engineer ifv to repair damaged tanks would be good but there are more important things that they have to be doing, from my point of view sometimes it looks like they're not doing much but if you watch the Players Point of View you'll see there are so many different things they are trying to manage at the same time - literally having to micro each miner and telling it where to get ore efficiently and stuff like that. As for the comment about capturing enemy buildings with Engineers that is allowed in Yuri's Revenge but in my regular red alert 2 tournament games we have a setting that doesn't allow it.
Fair, tnx for the answers 👍 I guess in some situations it could add up over time and maybe make a difference, but I guess it’s highly specific and generally costly in actions and resources.
Was bingewatching older tournaments just to see you just dropped a new Video! Awesome! Just found your channel recently and I like it a lot. Keep it up pls 😁
Awesome game as always @Iver Esp markos game as Allied vs Sov. So satisfying seeing Allied wins haha Allied has so little room for error vs Sov. Aside from the Community Rebalance Patch (which most Pro dont play for some reasons haha), hoping for future tweaks to make Allied more viable. Thx again Iver. Really a fan of YR, and hoping more YR game on ur channel hehe
So I will be the first to admit I know nothing about competitive ra2/yuri - I played the game casually as a kid and that's about it. But why do you guys not ever do allied vs yuri? Is it a balance thing, some timing that one side or the other just can't beat or something like that? My general understanding was that for a while no one played yuri because the faction as a whole was unbalanced (I thought he was thought to be generally overpowered, but again I definitely am speaking from ignorance here so I dunno), but clearly that is no longer the case in yuri vs soviet at least, what makes yuri vs allied different? Or is it just one of those things where allied is just strong enough that it can hang with soviet, and soviet is just strong enough that it can hang with yuri, but allied vs yuri is too much of a missmatch?
Hey! Yeah Allied can't play Yuri at the top level really. The main issue is the anti air from Allied (ifvs) suck and can't handle disks. But in general there are a lot of balance issues.
Just curious, but why is RA2 so popular still? I can understand it being more popular than C&C 1 or RA1 given they improve upon systems from then and etc. But why not Tiberian Sun, Tiberium Wars, or RA 3?
I think mostly because Red Alert 2 has this undeniable greatness as the number 1 RTS game of all time that just simply can't be denied... (but actually Red Alert 2 is not that popular haha. Search "Sybert C&C" he's a streamer that does the other C&C games and they have significantly more viewers and players)
@Iver I guess I just casually come across more RA2 content than anything else C&C related. I hear a lot of favorable opinions about C&C 3 and Kane's Wrath, but I only ever see RA 2 content, lol.
Damn Iver came dressed to the occasion! For what it's worth, I prefer the games not accelerated when there is nothing happening. I enjoy these sections usually because you spit knowledge with your guests. Almost like a podcast with some background RA2 developments. Anyway, love the content! Keep it up brother
Haha yeah I appreciate you hardcore viewers like that, and you can find the full 4 hour stream reruns on Twitch. But most viewers skip these, which hurts the RUclips ranking.
@@Iver fair enough. I suppose I'll need to find a way to support the YT while watching the unedited version on twitch for my pleasure lol anyway, thanks again for all the work you put into this!
Je suis tombé par hasard sur cette chaîne et je ne savais pas qu'il existait encore des gens qui y jouent. J'ai passé des centaines d'heures sur ce jeu qui reste un de mes préférés de tous les temps. Merci pour la nostalgie
¡Me alegra que estés disfrutando de los juegos! Organizamos torneos todos los meses. Si quieres unirte a la diversión, puedes unirte a mi servidor de Discord redalert2.com/discord
so glad to see this game still being played competitively. Getting that it is so old the latency should be pretty low right? keep up the great work man
can we do qien, marko, and kwos on a 3 player map one game of yr, one game of blitz, and 1 game of RA2... first player to 2 wins is the ultimate champion
Lol. Just the way it goes. We don't share a screen. So we aren't looking at the same things in real time. So when something happens on my screen (that is being streamed) I gotta yell it out.
Most viewers skip these parts, which hurts the reach of the videos, and the growth of the game. But if you want to watch the full unedited videos, they are always available to watch for free on Twitch.

He said previously he turns on Multi engineer so it takes three engineers making it basically impossible.
So basically the answer to almost every question of why don't they... is opportunity cost. Yes using a service Depot or an engineer ifv to repair damaged tanks would be good but there are more important things that they have to be doing, from my point of view sometimes it looks like they're not doing much but if you watch the Players Point of View you'll see there are so many different things they are trying to manage at the same time - literally having to micro each miner and telling it where to get ore efficiently and stuff like that.

Looking spiffy, brother! Enjoyed this round. Lgnd's Yuri prime/MCV gambit was amazing!
Haha such a ride!
Need to go to the barber and get that beard tidied up.
Wow, such an awesome game between such skilled players. Amazing coverage too!
Was a fun one!
The fourth game was epic, I laugh so hard when the miners came to the fight for both teams ahaha
Haha always the best part of a game
Fantastic game man, had me intrigued to very last second! My god 3rd and 4th game were beautiful!
Was a good one! These guys put on a show!
Was bingewatching older tournaments just to see you just dropped a new Video! Awesome!
Just found your channel recently and I like it a lot. Keep it up pls 😁
Glad your enjoying! Plenty more to come 🤠
So glad to see this game still played
Alive and thriving 💪
My friend, it is a really well prepared video, the transitions and the explanation are excellent.
Thanks buddy 💪
Will be you in the finals next year 🏆
Awesome game as always @Iver

Yeah Allied definitely more playable in YR vs regular RA2, always fun to see the different factions 💪
The production quali with these videos with the zooming and all is insane.
I hope to start playing in your tournaments soon! :)
Glad your enjoying! And yeah come join the fun. We got a pretty good size group of noobies at the moment.
Just got RA2 after watching your videos! Looking forward to playing!

Gotcha, that makes a lot of sense.
I’m surprised people still play this! I’m happy right now
Still the best game of all time 😎
@@Iver I can most definitely agree!

RA2 supported by the CN viewerbase(seriously moon3 and hbk08 the two old champions can still hit 1m views)
Hello where can I download RA2 or yuris Revenge? I can't find it in EA app.
cncnet.org/buy
thank you@@Iver
Awesome vid and great to see the love for Mr Iverson in the comments. You the man.
Thanks Gino 😀💪👍
I am surprised, it has looked like marko has been merely calling it in so far, but really made to the top by the end of it.
🙌🙌🙌
amazing edits and commenting was great too.
Glad you enjoyed!
this game needs a remake plz!!!
Maybe someday 😀
it's good as it is
Another awesome video! Keep it up, you guys rock!
Thanks! Glad your enjoying 😀
Can you play against other folks using the Steam version of the game that just came out again?
You need to download the free 3rd party application cncnet. Redalert2.com explains

I love how professional your videos are. Keep up the good work!
That's what we're going for! 😎
i had no idea this movement existed... so epic :D I used to play this when I was 12 lol
Haha still the best game of all time 💪

Glad you enjoyed 💪
is this like a community patched version of yuris revenge or is this vanilla?
Basically vanilla. Few bug fixes
There are many many Community patches but they aren't played competitively
@@Iver ah ok then
Only in RA2 - every week is a world cup finals week 🤟
Haha world cup month - now its over 😔
Cool we still has RA2 YR. We now have it on Steam.
Yup!
The ending of that fourth game holy shit!!
Hyyypee!
31:07 Marko Edging Edging Edging xD not a very appropriate thing to say lol
Can't say anything on RUclips without someone finding a sexual metaphor😂
HHNnnnnnNnGggg
Why am I in a marathon to watch all the tournament videos?
Sounds like a fun marathon commander :)
damn Marko regains the throne, our king is home
But only 1 of 3 thrones this year!
Wish I didn't glance at the comments on this particular video lol spoilers 😂
Why no allied vs yuri?
Not playable at the top level. Allied gets wrecked.
Oh really I thought allies were considered the strongest but I've never looked at the top tier players
Yeah at the top level Soviet dominates, then Yuri
22:27 thats a genetic mutator***
🤯🤯🤯
Amazing games!
🙌🙌🙌
TraxNYC is the last person I expect sponsoring a RA2 tournament. 🤣
Haha I guess everyone loves ra2
The ends of the matches are missing???
Don't think so
@@Ivermaybe i dont understand 8:45 there are replays and the next game begins but how did the first game play out? What did I miss?
It's live in the corner. The player quits out game ends
@@Iver oh okay thanks. I thought maybe people were quitting.
Yeah the last min if someone is about to quit and nothings happening I play highlights to keep the hype💪
That conscript rush was good
Always fun 💪
so glad to see this game still being played competitively. Getting that it is so old the latency should be pretty low right?
keep up the great work man
💪💪
Latency depends on the player connections
Need this on playstation asap. Come on man they have organ trail for 30 buck. let's get the ball rolling
I'll add it to the list 💪
can we do qien, marko, and kwos on a 3 player map one game of yr, one game of blitz, and 1 game of RA2... first player to 2 wins is the ultimate champion
Ohhhh perfect. Thanks! 🤯😂
