@@Zazume_ Thanks xD
@@Miningfox lol for real?
WTF?!?? Now you tell me that Turks don’t have Onagers!!!
Me, playing my second game: "Hey, only 17min for feudal, 34min for castle - a lot faster than the first!"
Tatoh: "17min imp is possible."
Me, playing my third game after watching this video and the "first 15 villager" one: 10min-24min.
Me, reaching imperial in just over an *hour* 0_o
I am down to 11:30 when i try to fast castle with the spains.. no fucking idea how people go imp in 17 fucking minutes xD
lots of villagers speed the time by alot
These castle times are more like my feudal times
Yeah, I was thinking that I was doing a "fast castle" that averaged about 20min with two stables constantly producing knights with upgrades to attack the enemy with a handful of knights by ~22minutes or so. I thought that I was doing a fc->knight rush... Turns out while it may be fast compared to other
Lol the imperial times are my feudal times...😂😂😂
I don't even use the castle age most of the time xD
Feudal wars ftw
Those imperial times are more like my feudal times.
Well, "were more like" until I started watching SotL's channel.
You guys reach feudal age?
How SotL describes his RUclips career:
*Expert Memer*
What a prestigious title. :D
Jay Blodget Where is it?
Look at his icon during the interview section of the video

around 8:40
I don't see it.
You're blind
For those that dont know what sling is, it is teammates tributing resources to you in the early game and staying in feudal or castle while bumping you up to castle/imp to make alot of army and crush enemies early.
Thanks
Shake 'n Bake!!!
Really appreciate the time you put in to do things like transcribe what tatoh is saying and even add in terminology explanation like "pocket". It really goes to show that you care about the new players too that might be watching your vid. Great work man!
Tatoh y Spirit of the law
Top 10 Best anime crossovers
that tatoh fellow really seems like a good guy
L. Fernando Ramírez Macías Until he gets ahold of a few demo ships
I dont get it ....
Alex Majike If that happens, the opponent would totally be like-
#feelsdautman
Tatoh, the biggest tower rush dick in the universe....... Ask spring 😂
Oh, if you don't know Tatoh and his love for Demo ships, then watch these clips:
ruclips.net/video/rN-C2FmALjg/видео.html
ruclips.net/video/l5Bo-PS85zk/видео.html
But yes, Tatoh is a very nice and cool guy. Probably the funniest pro to have team game.
Edit#1: Yes he also loves tower rush a bit too much, to the point of tilting even pros like Jordan_23. And Spring always kicks Tatoh out of lobby due to PTSD.
This was awsome having a pro player weigh in on a specific topic of game play.
You should do this again!
Christ can you imagine the fear you'd put in someone going to feudal at 6 MINUTES - like even if it's not as economically viable to scout-rush from there - the sheer amount of panic that's going to put in the other player is bananas.
If you just get up a tower and put everyone on wood and stone, could you imagine seeing towers around your base at 7 minutes in? xD
But here's the thing, defences are nice n all but they don't hamper your opponent - ages (and the offensive potential feudal and castle bring in particular) do!
If your opponents fast age up causes you to overreact with towers and messing up your economy then that's as good as scouts harassing those villagers off of more useful and relevant resources.
I think Daniel meant tower rushing your enemy. Imagine having your base surrounded by couple of enemuy towers in minute 8-9. Thats a nightmare material right there xD
^ exaclty, I mean tower rushing someone so quickly and they will likely not even be going up to feudal yet at that point.
I'm torn between probability of resignation, walling up to boom, or trying to spam with dark age units.
Honestly SOTL, I consider you more of an AOE scientist, rather than an expert memer hahaha.
Your videos are making me want to play AEO2 again, these videos hype it up, keep it up
Do it :) He is the reason I started again a year ago. And I have never regret it since. The game is just amazing. And the AoE online community is awesome.
Agreed. He is the reason that I've been able to get elo 1675 on Steam.
Thai Anh Dang infact today I bought it on steam
Holleri Dudodeldi I used to play this game as a kid 10 years ago and I have actually bought the steam version with it's expansions that didn't exist back then and it has been awsome
nice :)
I don't even play AoE2 anymore, but I really like to watch your videos.
Thank you.
Your videos are all incredible quality content! I also love the idea of interviewing pro players. Your channel is one of the best on youtube! Thank you so much, Spirit
One of your best videos so far, I would like to congratulate you SotL!
Also I would like to propose a subject for a future video, one introducing the pro-playing scene nowadays, with maybe interviews with some of the top broadcasters/commenters, such as zeroempires, memb, resonance, and who knows, even some top players.
For some people like me who´ve been away from the game for a long time and only recently started watching some of your videos and exploring other channels related, it would be really interesting to konw who these people are, where they come from, etc... since these are the people who maintained the interest on this game for so long
INTERVIEWS?! This is a new level in your channel. Congrats! I'd like to see more in the future, or maybe a section dedicated to. My argentinean pride would love you to interview Nicov, but other expert gamers like Twigg (argentinean, lol), MBL, TheViper, MrYo, DauT, Slam, etc. Even other channels like Zero Empires, that could be like a podcast. Enought for requests.
Just two little comments: koreans do have a Dark Age bonus. When your vils have extra LOS, helps you find your resources faster. Saved my ass in nomad once. And then, you might also have different vil count depending on the eco bonuses like celts wood cutting, etc.
By the way, huns weren't even mentioned...maybe, it was way too obvious...
Eleven out of ten, dude. Awsome vid. See ya!
I think its really cool how you make a really informal video about such a topic which is like always in my mind while playing but not in a explicit form like this
Can't say how much I appreciate these videos, i've gotten so much better after binge watching your uploads. Went from finding standard too easy and moderate too hard, and now I find moderate too easy and Hard too difficult.
Next big step up is when I find Hard too easy : )
Keep up the videos man!
Really great combination of info and the interview. Tatoh seems like a great dude.
I like how this video combines the usual approach and an interview with TaToH, very well done.
Good video.
Could you do a video/series on "what skills newer/bad players should focus on"? For example, you don't start worrying about advance times or civilization perks before you learn unit counters, basic economy and general map stategies (water? no water? cliffs/hills? gold rush?).
I'd imagine most of the audience are pretty bad (like myself) so it'd be pretty useful knowing the important things to focus on.
The kind of "skill" level i'm talking about - forgetting there are boars; getting housed 24/7; forgetting advancement buildings; not knowing much about civ bonuses (apart from special units and maximum unit upgrades); forgetting there's an imperial age and sitting there with 2k all resources; remembering a smithy exists in late imperial age...
Lol @ "I imagine most of the audience is pretty bad" how did you know?
Only recently found your content (thanks T90), loving it so far - these videos are really helpful and also entertaining.
Keep it up!
Nice man! Love your analysis on the topic!
thanks SotL for getting this introview!
I hope you do more in the future on other subjects.
Lol he gave Tatito subtitles
It reminds me this ruclips.net/video/isRuTbTBWtg/видео.html xD
Aha so that is why I for the first time understood him...
Actually I didn't saw the original you posted. I've seen this one. ruclips.net/video/f6B_7ZRSwWg/видео.htmlm10s
but we actually thought the same thing xD
Ey, I wanted to post that. xD
I'm thankful for the effort.
gosh I love this channel. I haven't played this game in like 10 years but I watch the crap out of these for nostalgia alone! thanks for all you do!
Thank you so much for this, you are awesome :)
Great that you got to interview him too
Awesome video! Much love for you and Tatoh!
Great video! I mean, every video you post is great, but still. Thank you for including subtitles for Tatoh as well.
this is great. Right off the bat I learned F11 is the in-game timer! I should really study all the hotkeys :) thanks again!
This is absolutely one of the best videos Sotl made. His videos always gives good points but sometimes makes me feel lack of pro perspectives. This is the one that really puts his video to a new lv.
Top notch quality. Great video! (and great intro as always)
expert memer
Really enjoyed the vid as well as the perspective from top-player TaToh. Hoping for more like this in the future:)
TaToh is love TaToh is life
i love your work and dedication about this game :) nice channel!
wooow yesterday I tried to improve my feudal times/ advance times in general! This video comes perfectly timed^^
I want the replay of the game with TaToH!! It's for homework :DGreat topic, Spirit. Now I have a reference about how fast I need to advance Ages. Love all your videos. ❤
Awesome interview and info, thanks!
I'm really happy that, throughout all the revisions of the intro, the Supremacy villager and Goth game plan always stick around.
I see you have constructed a new intro. Your training is complete.
very nice style you put in this video, i like it!
Awesome video. It seems my problem was clicking a little early into Feudal (21-22 vils) for Fast Castle, since I usually can't click into Castle with just two vils in between (maybe in maps with more food than normal only, like Yucatan and others).
And TaToH is awesome! he is very close to the community and his guides are great (he also is the only one that makes guides in Spanish I think).
I liked the interview, good addition to your vids :)
You should put "Ft. Tatoh" in the title, because clickbait works ^_^
Great video!
It would not be Clickbait as far as I'm concerned, he actually features Tatoh in his Video. so just an informative title.
To be faur, SOTL has this mystic ability where when people see his vids, they come. No clickbait needed.
@@ROFLBOB24 Absolutely true, see SotL's views with views of T90's notoriously click-baitey titles: SotL has hundreds of thousands more views without the need to add any bait whatsoever.
Dionysian .
I love u spirit, gimme some love
Hot
Love the interview thing, I meant its not the same as your gorgeous sexy maths but it was a nice format change. Keep up the great content
Loving what you do, Spirit :)
You are a legend man!
With such great statistics and strategies, you contribute to the idea why age of empires 2 is so great!!! Thank you
I keep comming back to this video once in every few months
Nice video, great to get an expert's opinion on the matter.
Excelente video, gracias. Y Tatito es un genio, el mejor!!!
Awesome vid with top players, keep doing this pleasee
Man your intro is just as good as your content. Simply awesome.
Oh my gah, Spirit, how are you so incredibly awesome! Great interview
Good shiet my friend, nice that u done interview i like ur movies. Keep on :)
I'm from Mexico, and I'm a very happy follower of your channel, I have learned a lot with your videos, but I've never seen you talking with this spanish guy before. There's no doubt, that this game breaks the lenguage and country barriers. Larga vida a Age of empires (long live to AoE).
Damn it was so cool hearing from him, cheers man.
brand new player here, your guides help so much!
Also a very important and interesting argument about advancing (especially for imperial) is that advancing self isn't the most important thing.
Utilizing the advance is just as important. Maybe you can you have just the economy to advance but you don't have the economy to actually utilize that advantage or lead it can maybe even be bad.
This is why knight rushes are common for fast castles. You can make knights immediately as soon as you get to the Castle Age, no additional research required. It's the same reason Feudal rushes tend to be archers or scouts, rather than men-at-arms.
Otherwise, yes, there's no reason to advance unless you're going to immediately start getting something that requires you to have advanced. That means you should either research a critical tech or start building new units/buildings as soon as you go up in age.
As far as I'm aware, the Imperial Age doesn't give access to any new units (except the trebuchet), so anything you do in the Imperial Age will require you to research something first. Unless you are the Turks and get Chemistry free.
love the tatoh interview!
Nice one, Spirit! I'd like to see the showdown between you and TaToH xD
Thank you SotL, you are a legend!
The Interview with tatoh was very nice because you got a different point of view (pro player).I Hope you will something like that more often.
yea that was nice thing but I would like to see him being interviewed too. What I have heard he hasn't even answered for requests.(if I remember right)
I don't even play AoE2 anymore and yet I watch every single video you make
I'm scared to play Ranked Placements but I got my 28(+2Feudal) Castle to 16:15 today! Now hitting around 16:30 consistently. Thank you for the videos :)
I really like the idea of an ,, radio interview '' ! It's cool how you explain something and after it you talked with the expert. But some information you gave us before he told us again. Probably next time you could interview the expert FIRST and after that you go into detail and explain what the Expert really said. Or something like that.
Good Job Spirit. I really enjoy your Videos.
Great video & nice interview-partner ;)
Loved the collaboration with a top player, and the fact you don't shout it out in the title of the video to get some more exposure. Keep it up!
nice idea with getting the top players involved in your videos, i like it. kinda puts your math to the "test" ballzy if you're not sure what your doing, but i feel you passed that point some time ago
Jonathan Laulund Hells yeah, i want to hear Spirit and T90 cast together!
Jonathan Laulund it would be a casting dream team indeed, the voices alone would make it worthwhile
You guys know 1 thing? Viper once trolled his youtube subs on a video by saying
"Heys guys, Spirit of the law here!"
Lol. Their voices are soo identical. We all were just confused and thought it was spirit's video
Big fan of you involving a top player. Hope to see it again.
Hahahah amazing video! Nice to see the thinking of experienced players out there
Nice Video.
Hello Tatoh! :D
Updated intro huh? I like it.
Tatoh is the best. Viper is a new player #clearly
Thanks for the captions for Tatoh.
I'm glad I don't have to strain to understand what he's saying.
Not that the guy is bad for having a heavy accent just...
Being an eSports pro, you make sacrifices to get where you are...
I saw someone do a 4 minute feudal age the other day. I swear they must've been crazy. It was on a map with a treaty and a solid black forest wall separating teams too.
Woooo!!! I abandoned Viper's stream to watch this :D
Traitor... naw jk
Poor Biperino...
lol same
Traitor!!!! 111
Wololo*
Nunca espere escuchar a Tatitoh por aqui
Hasta luego parceros
I really like the new intro
His videos are the only ones i watch completly lol
It would help also to have a gauge on on much resources you can gather while advancing, so to be able to estimate if, for istance, I can get a smooth fc or I'm short on food
Love your vids a lot!! Keep it up amigo! o/
Great video like always! Can't wait for the next video!!! Continue the good work Spirit of the Law. And how was the game against Tatoh?
Really enjoy the well written and thought out videos even if I didn't play for years because real time strategy is not my thing, I prefer round based, because you have time to micromanage the shit out of it. I do enjoy some of them though, like Supcom FA.
I really wish I could play this game more :( , I love it so much.
I reach feudal at minute 12. Castle: minute 20-22, Imperial minute 30-33. More or less. I feel So Noob.
Loved the video, super helpful! Have you ever done statistics on top 5 fastest advancing civs? Curious which ones could feasibly at least fast castle the quickest
I love your logic sotl
I saw this uploaded while I was at work and couldn't get home fast enough ffs.
new vid ...yay!
I watch every single one of your videos, but I honestly clicked on this one just to see how "Advance Times in AoE2" could POSSIBLY be 15 minutes long. But there it is!
The one day I decide not to go onto youtube.
*AND SPIRIT POSTS A VIDEO!*
Tatoh is my bae
One thing we can add is the amount of time you invest in feudal and castle.... i used to stay way to long in feudal like 25 min and more...... and castle 45 min and more...... in 1v1 it all depends on the game but in general you start clicking up at the 20 min and for imp at 35-45
I'm a simple person, I see Tatoh, I subscribe.
when you guys are going castle, I'm still clicking on my first villager!
Ese Tatoh!!
Tatoh collab? Neat.
