This is a great addition. I was actually thinking about making a custom map exactly like this just to practice unit control. It's great to see the way they're supporting DE. Gives me hope that they're taking AOE4 development seriously, since they can see there's a really active community and nothing else like it.
Hang on, Viper was struggling with this and almost lost units a few times, and now they've updated the challenge and you only get 4 of each unit? Anyone done it recently? Just come on here to see if I was picking wrong choices, seems like they've just made it extremely hard
The archers vs man at arm is really hard after the update. I finally beat it by triggering all enemy units with a single archer, running around and let the rest of the archers do the job.
@@rockyharp1867 I got there in the end, but the fact Viper is struggling with more units makes me think a lot of people will struggle or only get it by pure luck(which I think mine was)
@@mihalybiro298 Damn, that's a smart way to do it. Completely irrelevant against a human player, but great against the computer 11 For real though, why would they make this even harder???
Use the hill next to the northern outpost, it doesn't help with damage, but makes them survive like one hit more and makes the scouts waste time trying to path around each other. Possibly doing box formation and using patrol move makes it much easier, but it's not needed.
I thought you can't win with spears vs the scouts and played 5 scouts vs 7 scouts for like an hour trying to not let any one die it was super hard. Probably not that hard if you are good I guess, but it was a good challenge nevertheless.
Take a closer look on the control. He patrols the spears into the scouts and the first one is deleted almost instantly and the second like follows example.
Countering the men at arms is ridiculously difficult. I have tried it for more than 20 times now and I just cannot do it. I also do not understand what the Viper did to survive that. I try to copy it exactly, but I always loose 1 archer.
Just want to say in order to beat this i used cav to confuse the maa by quickly moving back and forth behind the encampment and fought them one at a time
You and the rest of the micronerds should see who can get gold using mirror units or a unit that takes bonus damage. It would settle who had the best micro in AOE2
for 6th wave, it is easier to use scouts and archers. The enemy marches with spears in front and skirms at the back, so u can reach out with archers to lure spears into the hill and hit and run until all spears die, then just kill the remaining skirms with scouts. It is safer and easier micro
Can't get the update, suppose I should've bought from the store, not torrent downloa my version. Oh well, might need to wait until they release update installed version
You only get 4 Spears now, I'm wondering if it's even possible to do the first one without losing a unit with 4 spears against 6 scouts Might be possible with scouts against scouts but they keep chasing me down and since we're the same speed I can't attack them with my healthy ones even though I can run away forever I'm just delaying the inevitable Edit: it's probably possible with spears if you're extremely good and it's definitely possible with scouts you just have to get lucky with targeting
The 'scout cav' challenge works with 4 spears as long as you keep your guys in a choke point and standing ground. I can't figure out how to do the MAA part.
He's more serious here than in the HC3 semi finals lmao
"Lose less than 0 units to earn the gold medal" -DE, 2020
Obviously they meant "fewer than 0 units" ;)
It means you have to convert at least one.

@@wijzijnwij bro you restated fewer lesser here same meaning
"quick maths"
chooses skirms to fight archers. he feels the pressure our silver pleb
Imagine if opposing archers were green color.
@@Progeusz triggered
Now choose archers for every wave and micro them all to death with no losses!
Showsni fighting 6 scouts with 5 archer with limited high ground and no choke point is quite tough.
@@edwardtan7283 is it possible?
@@rayaqin I wouldn't completely rule out the possibility that someone might smack me on the face.

At 8:10 Biper: *patrols*
Also Biper: "Why did they stop?!"

I managed the spearmen vs scouts in first one by using the chokepoint by the northern outpost
I was thinking that myself. I really can’t do the man at arms section. It’s so frustrating and with only 4 archers it makes it near on impossible

*goes to play this level
*only gets 4 spearmen (instead of 5 like Viper)
This is the one can watch a Viper video and be on the edge of your seat the whole battle. The tension of potentially getting silver rank is hilarious.
I keep hearing about this Golden Boi, but who is he? Is he the more succesful brother of our Silver Boi here?
Wave 4 now has only 4 archers against 5 man-at-arms, was able to do it with hit and run easier without going up hills
Viper is becoming better at the game
I'm a new player, and I've gotta say, these videos make me feel a lot better about myself.
Even a broken clock is right twice a day... Same goes for viper and gold medals
I'm such a devil because i really want to see Biper gets Gold and be a Silver boy again at the same time
“Let’s go lasagna” such an awesome battle line
there s a pretty big heal north of the troops in the 6th wave. putting archers up there and men at arms in front of them makes that wave very easy
i've just played this scenario. I couldn't go for gold medal. You played very well with the archers. I'll learn!! Thanks
you are an excellent actor Viper ... simulating not being able to beat the pc 11
Most Hardest in Episode
Archer vs Man at arm
@silver boy: Who the heck is golden boy?
linkon Arthas Menethil
Thanks I waiting Someone to Upload the Video
He is microing his heart out like he has to proof something
..oh wait
After the update, only 4 spearmen vs 6 scouts
since new patch you only get 4spearman and 4bowman ^^
Silver boi is back
Weirdly enough, you only get 4 spearmen now, making it rather tough...I guess you need to micro ? Any advice anyone ?
Use the hill next to the northern outpost, it doesn't help with damage, but makes them survive like one hit more and makes the scouts waste time trying to path around each other. Possibly doing box formation and using patrol move makes it much easier, but it's not needed.
@@squashedkebab6927thanks ! i'll try to give it a shot then
some sound effets are the sames in age of empires, is it the same series?
2:45 And take less damage!
Can't pass through men at arms.
FOR US YOU WILL STAY FOREVER IN OUR HEART THE WONDERFUL VIPER SILVER BOI! (^_-)

I did it with just patrol
viper will you make a bonus episode with archers vs skirmishers and micronerd it for our enterteinment?
Hmmm, I swear they reduced this to you only get 4 archers
They fucking changed it to 4 archers vs 5 MaA now. Wtf?!
Countering the men at arms is ridiculously difficult. I have tried it for more than 20 times now and I just cannot do it.
I also do not understand what the Viper did to survive that.

it is really difficult imo too

@@JamesSmith-np1hs That did it! That was so hard until I tried this, a 2 hp scout running around
One less archer as well
Ok, if The Viper was worried, It means that I'll never get gold medal...
Silverboi is back :D
Good job, Silver boi.👏👏👍
I think we're starting to get a new nickname for the vipaaa aka golden boy, haha.
Nope, he will forever be silverboi
@@Eembuster hahahaha, the best player in the world, sound good :p
You and the rest of the micronerds should see who can get gold using mirror units or a unit that takes bonus damage. It would settle who had the best micro in AOE2
Viper I love you man ❤️
You get five I get four wtf
Literally more stressful than HC3.
For some reason I am starting with 4 skirms against scouts in the first wave... I don't understand why but it's so hard lol.
What?!?!?! The latest DE version gives you only 4 spearmen!! I'm getting robbed...
Jebait tactics are going to be in the next release
Golden boy viper❤
Never cheered harder for the AI.
Hello Viper, have you given up on your campaign series?
for 6th wave, it is easier to use scouts and archers. The enemy marches with spears in front and skirms at the back, so u can reach out with archers to lure spears into the hill and hit and run until all spears die, then just kill the remaining skirms with scouts. It is safer and easier micro
Nice
Oh right, they added new ones.
I predict gold for silverboi
Nice one
Golden boi.
Golden Viper
Divide into chapters or use a table of contents. We only need to see the battles!
Muy buen challenge
He has 5 units, I have 4 units to win. What happens?
Y stopped the Campaign videos??
seems harder than HC3 :D
Silverboi got gold
starts at 4:40
Ahahah this was legit fun
Brother he is complaining about getting 5, you get 4 now.
gigi my golden one
You got 5 spear men, I am only getting 4 against 6 scouts 8/
LET'S GO LASAGNA!
I only get 4 spierman :( cant do gold medal
Silverboy 🥈
5:56
*Ayyyy.....AYYYYY......*
"best porn ever"
doing triggers that only enable every type just once so the map actually makes you think twice what u use against what was beyond them...
... .they nerfed the units you get to make it harder to get gold. Cool. Outstanding.
Goldenboi
t looks like aoe3 tutorial
How come he gets 5 units each time, but I get 4? Duh fuq is that?
