Siege of Rivendale: elves have those rider that are vastly superior to anything in undead army. Next: fell orcs. They are insanely powerfull, compared to undead foces, have chaos damage, insane spells, and red dragons. And so on. Naga, demons, cool human heroes of level 15 from bonus campaign - everything makes scourge look like joke. I can think of only 2 factions that look as weak: satires and drenei.

    • @cosmicbard6998
      @cosmicbard6998 2 года назад +18

      Yeah, seeing him doing custom campaigns deathless would have been amazing, especially because believe it or not, the difficulty ramps up even more than in the regular campaigns (try Curse of the Forsaken on hard or the second books of Legends of Arkain, they're quite something).
      I personally asked him about this in his Discord server, and he said that he thinks custom content could be fun, but it leads to less engagement due to its lower popularity, meaning that his videos get less views and the algorithm really screws with his channel.
      I just hope that he at least considers doing it on Twitch while uploading both failed and successful runs on the Archives channel. But another challenge on the base campaigns would make me quite happy too.

      @TheArklyte 2 года назад +9

      Won't work. Units are dying only when leader dies, those games don't care about separate soldiers. So there would be no way to track who died. Unless you fully abandon using infantry... which might work in case of CnC. For DoW, DoWII campaign might work too. CoH is too infantry focused so it won't work.

    Does Reforge still have the shade abuse trick?
    That's where when Illidan is channeling, you can box him in with Shades and tell them to hold ground; they won't move, and Illidan can't force them out of his way. Since the Naga's once weakness is they don't have detection, you can literally hold Illidan in place with about 6-8 Shades, and do what you need to do and not worry about him.

    Honestly, the fact that you managed to actually do all the campaigns deathless on hard is impressive as hell. You have my respect sir (the gameplay plus the editing must have taken a whole lot of time).
    I know that you said on Discord that you're not planning to do this challenge on custom campaigns (cus the RUclips overlords would mess with you), but I'd still love to see you try them on Twitch at least, along with some other possible challenges like only footman/ghoul/grunt/archer or Twitch Trolls on Warcraft 3.

    In the mission, the enemy periodically sends crusades, giant armies, to destroy your base
    But only your starting base, if you make a new one anywhere else, they‘ll just stand there once they destroy all your buildings, and if you don‘t kill all the units from the crusade a new one will never spawn( i have no idea if the new one would find your new base or not as i just left them to vibe in the corner)
