Casting your games was a pleasure Magic. Kept us all on the edge of our seats the whole time. I truly cannot wait to cast you in the next tournament. Phenomenal player. And I hope your hunger for this game only grows with this and with your next showing we get the best version of Magic anyone has ever seen. My Vocal chords and I cannot wait for that moment!
I really like your attitude Magic. You're willing to learn, you interact with the community and you're even willing to play against Vortex again. That's super humbling.
Magic has the absolute best competitive attitude of any player from any game. Takes a loss, learns from it and on top, turns it into a positive experience by sharing his wisdom with others. Very excited to watch and cheer you on as you shoot to the top!
You’re doing great, Magic! Don’t forget you don’t have to do everything yourself - there are plenty of people who might want to support you in video creation, website management etc. - try calling out to your fanbase to fulfill your vision of your channel. That might free you up to focus on your expertise and presenting it to us. It’s what you do best and why we watch!
You had a great performance overall, love watching your games. It was tough with the last minute balance changes, and that got in a lot of peoples heads I think. Great sentiment near the end about the people you want to surround yourself with. Good luck in the show match and future tourneys!
I’m loving your videos. This is my first RTS and I’m so excited learning how to get better from you. You are such a natural at RUclips already. I was amazed when I saw how recently you started. It’s great hearing why you make decisions and I can’t get enough of listening to your insight. Sorry you didn’t get the outcome you were looking for. It’s crazy that you are competitive with professional players while also working a full time job. I appreciate all the effort you are going through putting these out.
these analysis videos are incredible, I feel like I learned more than I have in years by hearing your thought process here. My new favorite aom player no doubt 😁
I've only seen your games through the eyes of caster so far, and after watching this video, I can say that I am glad I took the time to watch it. Your attitude actually makes me want to became part of this community and play competitively.
You put out great performance, nothing to by ashamed of. The pressure on you as a legend was real and you are human. Dont worry, thats not end. Retold has just begun and this is just wake up call that new era has started ;)
Take heart my friend, you did admirably. I look forward to watching your growth and development from here! Thank you for sharing your journey, it has helped me and my friends follow the path of improvement! Thank you
Its great to hear that you will be making more videos! They have become my favorite videos on youtube! Its great that you take us on this learning journey and I really do hope that in some way that this community will be able to give back to you in some way. We could never help you directly win a tournament unfortunately. But maybe, just maybe we can leave a small positive warm feeling that can influence your environment in the smallest of ways.
Nah, we shall all hail to our king, the GOAT Magic! You shall be victorious in the coming battles! May this defeat show that even the mighty GOAT can face challenges, for it is through adversity that true greatness is forged. With each trial, you grow stronger, and soon, your triumphs shall be unmatched across the lands! 💪🔥
Man you're such a legend. Think you're headed in the right direction with the changes you're making. That's the key in all competitive environments: adapting and optimizing. As you said, you might have lost a match, but the learnings you've taken (already after such short time) will give you so much more value. Will be routing for you!
Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. But you learn the most from your losses. This is very important to understand in every area of life and especially in the business world. Your employees become solid and confident when you allow them to make mistakes and then to let them learn from it. And then let them also learn from mistakes of other employees without blaming and shaming anyone. Great video and well played nonetheless! Not every day can be the best day from a personal view.
Really loved watching your matches and your vids. It's great to hear about your thoughts and strategy on the game, that's exactly what I need to learn about AoM.
So many things in this tournament were so scuffed. I don’t know if you were a player that had access to the 6+ months of testing but it’s insane any of those players were allowed to participate. Under normal rules players with that sort of access wouldn’t be allowed to participate in tournaments. But the most scuffed thing imo is the patches days and hours before the tournament even began. Thanks for coming to my TED talk. Best of luck in the next tournaments!
You are one of the OG aom goats. The patch right before must have been so annoying for a player like yourself practicing. It’s only the first tournament of Retold we all know you will be up on the podium soon. Thanks for all the videos bro, feel blessed learning from you
What a great and humble video. It sounds like you have a good attitude and aren't taking it too hard, I'm looking forward to your upcoming show match! Wishing you the best of luck in game and out.
To be completely honest, I believe you are an absolutely great player. Insane actually. I wish you all the best, I love your videos and I love that after your games you made this kind of a video. I just want to tell you that now, I believe you can do what you are trying. Staying on top while having a full time job (on top meaning not top category, but trying to be the best). But if retold continues to grow and it gets a StarCraft treatment I think it is expected and it is realistic to absolutely be on top category, and be on top strategy-wise, even make correct decisions on difficult times, but the meta will be changing, and retold is heavier than other games in the sheer amount of content, and I think it will be difficult to be the best. Really don't want to discourage you at ALL. Just want to point out that the advantage pro player's have is really, really big. I love your content. Waiting for the next video!
It was really interesting watching this from both sides; your game knowledge of AoM was really impressive to watch with god power timings and god matchups, while Vortix just focused on his fundamentals and played the game more like other Age games in the sense that his unit production was consistent and constantly being expanded. And even though you didn't make it to the grand finals this time, you still made it really far and I'll be rooting for you in future tournaments too
I'm so sad that you lose today, ur games were the best to watch, ur guides is the reason I know to play this game, never stop the good work man, I can't wait for more guides and build orders to come!
It was a enormous joy to see a legend like you play the AOM tournament. Great learning video, continue creating marvelous content. See you in the next rematches!
However unfortunate it is that you missed out on that opportunity, i believe the universe is redirecting you for a reason. You have by far tbe most useful AOM videos right now when it comes to learning. Hell i can learn from casted games, but the shit you do is divine. So i think you should focus on that right now and find immense success brother. Been playing the game since i was 6, can’t wait to properly play it with your aid.
This is a great video for any RTS player really since you point out the correct mindset and the attention span needed for competitive success. 1 or 3 seconds are enough to change a match trajectory permanently and I believe that there is a difference here maybe regarding your tactical victories (like the maneuver to stun and kill units on small combats) and Vortix's strategical victory (which I read as the decision of your opponent on committing on a full-fledged offensive with 1 TC only while you went for a boom diverting resources to a 2nd TC) Subscribed to you!! good luck in the next tournaments!
Sometimes when we experience failure, we mistakenly attribute that to a personal failure. In reality it is our failures and oftentimes the repetition of those failures that makes us great. Sounds like you know the difference, but I wanted to say you should be proud how far you’ve made it!
You are a great player, you have an absurd knowledge about the game, winning and losing are things that happen, the important thing is to never give up, and I'm very happy that you will keep trying without stopping and keep fighting, I'm rooting for your success and the Your performance, you, your videos, taught me a lot about this game, and I can only thank you for that, strength and determination, you can do it. I'm not the best player yet, but if I want to play together one day, it would be an honor. A big hug from Brazil!
Great mindset, you did very well regardless. I'm honestly extremely excited with the amount of competitiveness the qualifier has shown and I genuinely can't wait for more tournaments to show off the high level we've seen once again. This game is insanely fun to watch, so here's hoping for more! GG
Just started the video don'k know it what content it hold but, the fact that you are doing this kind of videos are visionary. Learned so muych from you so ty vm. Also watched your all matches in tournement. Was supporting you felt sad that you didn't won it. next time I'm sureeeeyou got it. Keep well.
Good call ! I've applied the wait & bide time and regroup an army a few times, and it often does work, towers and TC doing chip damage here and there is "free" but honestly this video is so informative its insane, as atlantean player, and the mirror match up, I do think murmillos are the winning choice too rather than just trying to turma vs turma Letting a TC go after it does some damage to the enemy while you build up a further army might not be a bad move either
Great mindset. It is interesting to see how you will deal with your full time job and your daily practice. I totally agree with you, the pro or full time streamer that able to try hard will catch up "veterans" players very soon
yeah fixing ur eco was def the mistake i thought ur opening of murmillo/caladria was so cool effective at picking out units. I was screaming at my tv u got hunt in the back bro! XD u will come back stronger man! looking forward to ur next content really deep dive of gods/civs is really cool i think. I would also like that u go over the maps or add them as a factor in what ur main strat is. I mean the maps for ranked btw not all of them :) keep making content man!
I mean, you are already a legend in this game and aoe4, i just think vortix came very excited and to give it all here, MANY PLAYERS WERE WATCHING YOUR SERIES LIVE! :,D It was soo good :3 this just began, there a long way to go yet, i know games are gonna get wilder now after this tournament. PLS KEEP POSTING SOME GOOD CONTENT FROM TIME TO TIME, regards and thank you bro.
You did well Magic, I felt sad this game because I am spanish and I wanted Vortix to win but you are my favourite streamer/youtuber and I learn a lot with your videos and I am an egypt main too. You will do better next time! Don't give up!
I'm not sure if the stats are available, but a video about each civ and god's performance in the tourney and your thoughts about why would be really cool.
Love that sharing this Magic! There's another major tournament happening in October with a $15k prize pool, I hope we get to watch you compete there too! Did you record your live gameplay as well? Would be great to post some of those as well with your narration of what you were thinking at the time.
Awesome analysis, I feel like this sort of thing happens to me all the time (having a lead then losing somehow). When you were unbalanced on your eco (no food), what should you have done? were there more hunts or berries you could take? When I was in this situation I tried to spam out more farms, but I didn't have enough wood to get my food back quickly enough and eventually got overrun.
@@IamMagicAOM Right so even though you have a lead in the scoreboard, a decision like building a second TC shouldn't be taken lightly because it can actually set you back. Even though you have a villager lead you can't capitalize on it because now you're under threat of the opponent who has been forced to make a move on you. At that stage instead you should be able to defend easily and patiently with the better eco position and knowing that he's going to act out of desperation to make up his losses. Just trying to clarify my understanding here. I'm a casual player normally playing team games but these things mess me up. In a 3v3 I made my closest opponent resign through raiding and pushing his main TC around 15 minutes. Thinking I was relatively safe after that I built 2 more TCs but then their ally showed up with an army of age 4 elephants and camels and son of osiris around 19 minutes (he'd been left alone all game) and was basically unstoppable even when my allies came to help. I guess I should have built more army and maybe tried to age up before fighting him, I had the resources to do so, but my 3 (or 4?) TCs were spamming out villagers eating up my food and it was all downhill from there 😢 Sorry for the spiel, I know team games are a completely different ballpark but I think I learned a lot from your analysis to apply there too.
Hope you feel better after a good night sleep. Losing like this to vortix must have been tough. Not to say that vortix himself is not a Killer in any RTS he dives into. But I am sure you will win the rematch if your practice routine ( and other negative influences) are improved the way you plan to.
Hey this is a very inspiring video. I'm also a young adult with a full time job and love age of mythology so I tried to sneak in 3-4 games a day (sitting at 1200 elo). The mistakes you made in the game was very relatable to me as well especially taking bad fight cause of adrenaline. Tho my mistakes are probably a lot more obvious and detrimental haha. I think really highly of your videos and think you will be a big AOM content creator (even if you won't go full time pro due to work and life). Hope I can face you on the ladder as some point
Thank you for playing Oranos. Oranos is my favorite faction. Question: Does anyone know if it's possible to stop your mythic units from using their special abilities autonomously? Oftentimes I find the centimanus waste their knockback ability on single units when I would like them to use it on larger clumps.
gg, I think - as you mentioned as well - the biggest part of losing this one was the villager distribution. you had more than enough time to recover, but 3 on food for so long was too rough. I haven't been able to watch your games live, and since they were on a special page you cannot rewatch them. So if you want to shortly analyze your other games against Vortiv, I think lots of us here would love to see those
unfortunate that you lost, a final between you and Mista would stop the world to see it. Your mindset is great tho, its really refreshing to see someone like you after being submitted to lol's pro scene
Casting your games was a pleasure Magic. Kept us all on the edge of our seats the whole time. I truly cannot wait to cast you in the next tournament. Phenomenal player. And I hope your hunger for this game only grows with this and with your next showing we get the best version of Magic anyone has ever seen. My Vocal chords and I cannot wait for that moment!
Thanks man! Love your casting
I really like your attitude Magic. You're willing to learn, you interact with the community and you're even willing to play against Vortex again. That's super humbling.
You played great and you are right, sometimes you win sometimes you lose. You have a great attitude ill be cheering for you in the next one!
Yeah man...wish to see a MAGIC Vs
MISTA final next year👍
You are the Best Magic...bless you my man.😊
Poetic winner mindset. Not for just games.
Magic has the absolute best competitive attitude of any player from any game. Takes a loss, learns from it and on top, turns it into a positive experience by sharing his wisdom with others. Very excited to watch and cheer you on as you shoot to the top!

Unfortunate that Suppe had to face you early on, I was rooting for you two. Was a very fun tournament to watch.
Take heart my friend, you did admirably. I look forward to watching your growth and development from here! Thank you for sharing your journey, it has helped me and my friends follow the path of improvement! Thank you
Love your approach to the game and I especially love these "tactics analysis" videos. Please keep them coming!
Its great to hear that you will be making more videos! They have become my favorite videos on youtube!
Its great that you take us on this learning journey and I really do hope that in some way that this community will be able to give back to you in some way.

Don't be so hard on yourself, you win some and loose some. You're a winner in our eyes!!👑
I was rooting for you magic! I always watch your videos, don't beat yourself up, you did good!
Was great to watch you mate, was rooting for you! And to make a vid like this even after defeat shows great strength of character. Well done man!
You’re the goat dude great video keen to watch you in the next one
doing this kind of videos shows why you are one of the best, love your content and it was a pleasure to watch you at the tournament

Good luck in the future man, with an attitude and mentality like that there's no shot you're not bouncing back and crushing future tournaments!
Come back stronger - love your videos.

Great analysis magic and never forget, gl and hf.
Your videos helped me a lot playing AoM! Still got work to do, but as you say, that's how it goes! Good luck with the next one, mate!
You are really amazing and a true mindset inspiration apart from an astounding player. Keep up the good work and hope seeing you more often!!!
I appreciate that!
You will ever be top 1 AOM , salute to you .

The algorithm reached me and I'm glad it did! You've earned a sub :)
Great run, great self-awareness here - all the best moving forward
Great showing and great attitude Magic. Excited to see you play again in any upcoming event!
You did great Magic, thanks for all your insights!

Good stuff Magic, you're attitude+insight is definitely an inspiration =)
I had a lot of fun watching your matches, especially vs Vortix.
You won in my head! You’re the true winner. Keep your head up high and you’re going to win the next one boss👊
Your videos are the best.
Wow, thanks man! Much appreciated for the words and the tip!!
I'm sad to hear you did not qualify, I was very much rooting for you! But don't get discouraged and good luck in the next one!
You did amazing, it happens. Looking forward to your streams. I love your gameplay and explanations.
Great discussion. You get my sub and I'll be watching!
Good call !
I've applied the wait & bide time and regroup an army a few times, and it often does work, towers and TC doing chip damage here and there is "free"
but honestly this video is so informative its insane, as atlantean player, and the mirror match up, I do think murmillos are the winning choice too rather than just trying to turma vs turma
Letting a TC go after it does some damage to the enemy while you build up a further army might not be a bad move either
You'll get em next time mr magic! You were in a good spot initially in all 3 losses vs vortix, probably the Ra game was the biggest opportunity lost.
Thanks chrono, my old teacher
@@IamMagicAOM forgot to say i enjoyed the video too lol. Very good self review, it's not easy to objectively (and effectively) review one's own games.
I was supporting you, you played awesome the whole tournament
Great mindset. It is interesting to see how you will deal with your full time job and your daily practice. I totally agree with you, the pro or full time streamer that able to try hard will catch up "veterans" players very soon
The set between you and Vortix was absolutely insane. GGs!
You have a great attitude as a player and I really like your insights! Keep going 👍
yeah fixing ur eco was def the mistake i thought ur opening of murmillo/caladria was so cool effective at picking out units. I was screaming at my tv u got hunt in the back bro! XD u will come back stronger man! looking forward to ur next content really deep dive of gods/civs is really cool i think. I would also like that u go over the maps or add them as a factor in what ur main strat is. I mean the maps for ranked btw not all of them :) keep making content man!
Thanks man
dang you're so right about that 2nd TC. 600 resources invested into your army instead would have let ya dominate! Great analysis and attitude!
Plus the citizens' time building it instead of gathering + food for making citizens from the 2nd tc
I mean, you are already a legend in this game and aoe4, i just think vortix came very excited and to give it all here, MANY PLAYERS WERE WATCHING YOUR SERIES LIVE! :,D It was soo good :3 this just began, there a long way to go yet, i know games are gonna get wilder now after this tournament. PLS KEEP POSTING SOME GOOD CONTENT FROM TIME TO TIME, regards and thank you bro.
I was rooting for you! Well played sir! I'll look forward to seeing you in future tournaments!
You have got yourself a new fan! You have helped me a lot in this game
You did well Magic, I felt sad this game because I am spanish and I wanted Vortix to win but you are my favourite streamer/youtuber and I learn a lot with your videos and I am an egypt main too. You will do better next time! Don't give up!
Since the game now got into a new golden age, so do its players, keep grinding!
Great anaylsis ! really good anaylsis its hard to watch something after you lost a close game
Very insightful.
Anything can happen, we support you!
we all know very well that you are the real king of aom😀
you will take yours at the right time.
I was supporting you too! Keep up the good work!
Enlightening video!
Looking forward to your rematch with Vortix, your greek build order is what I follow, and practicing it got me great results!
I'm not sure if the stats are available, but a video about each civ and god's performance in the tourney and your thoughts about why would be really cool.
Continuous support you!
You have such a great Attitude, bringing the Analysis of your L to the public!
that last minute patch deff affected magic Egyptians powerhouse and buffed Atlanteans which he didn't practice...
Love that sharing this Magic! There's another major tournament happening in October with a $15k prize pool, I hope we get to watch you compete there too!
Did you record your live gameplay as well? Would be great to post some of those as well with your narration of what you were thinking at the time.
Unfortunately not this time but perhaps in the future!
Awesome analysis, I feel like this sort of thing happens to me all the time (having a lead then losing somehow).

I think the main issue was the second tc which ate up all my food, I had no choice but to transition to farms but there was not enough time
@@IamMagicAOM Right so even though you have a lead in the scoreboard, a decision like building a second TC shouldn't be taken lightly because it can actually set you back. Even though you have a villager lead you can't capitalize on it because now you're under threat of the opponent who has been forced to make a move on you.

dont have time right now so ill just leave a like and comment and watch later, king
Hope you feel better after a good night sleep. Losing like this to vortix must have been tough.
Not to say that vortix himself is not a Killer in any RTS he dives into. But I am sure you will win the rematch if your practice routine ( and other negative influences) are improved the way you plan to.
You can retreat with archers, grouping the units differently for retreat purposes can help.
Hey this is a very inspiring video. I'm also a young adult with a full time job and love age of mythology so I tried to sneak in 3-4 games a day (sitting at 1200 elo). The mistakes you made in the game was very relatable to me as well especially taking bad fight cause of adrenaline. Tho my mistakes are probably a lot more obvious and detrimental haha. I think really highly of your videos and think you will be a big AOM content creator (even if you won't go full time pro due to work and life). Hope I can face you on the ladder as some point
Thank you !
Thank you for playing Oranos. Oranos is my favorite faction. Question: Does anyone know if it's possible to stop your mythic units from using their special abilities autonomously? Oftentimes I find the centimanus waste their knockback ability on single units when I would like them to use it on larger clumps.
Yeah right click on the ability and then you can manually case it by clicking or pressing the hotkey ( for me it’s Q )
I was really worried while seeing you raid with 4 caladrias. Really a pleassure casting you from the Spanish channel.
Wasn't able to watch all the game but saw you got to beat PuppyPaw!
very interesting, thank you
Thanks for the video. Do u have another way to qualify?
Best luck
Next year I hope haha
Hate to see the result; love to see this
If you do this (analysis) for some of the games in the RB tourney, it will be so great for people like me.
gg, I think - as you mentioned as well - the biggest part of losing this one was the villager distribution. you had more than enough time to recover, but 3 on food for so long was too rough.
I haven't been able to watch your games live, and since they were on a special page you cannot rewatch them. So if you want to shortly analyze your other games against Vortiv, I think lots of us here would love to see those
unfortunate that you lost, a final between you and Mista would stop the world to see it. Your mindset is great tho, its really refreshing to see someone like you after being submitted to lol's pro scene
vortix is one of the best rts players, esp. his micro is insane. also he switches games and in any new game he is on top in no time....
Good show!
