"Fight me like a man!"
Viper says while garrisoning 100 longbows into his castle
@Zac sesz Zeh Taunting Frenchman
@Zac sesz kids these days got NO education
You k--night
Victim: "Just wanted a chill game before lunch"
Viper: "Yeah me to"
Viper:
This is like my childhood aoe dream, a pro player with MASS longbows
"Ich bin ein Pleb, jetzt!" - Beautiful.
Looks like Sitaux got to enjoy the classic Joan of Arc experience.
I think that's what the Hundred Years War looks like *before* the birth of Joan of Arc
The Joan of Arc experience is thousands of dead English longbowmen and tons of breached English Castles in Normandy and Brittany.
@@tomh4754 - She was ambushed and captured, yes. But she wasn't even captured by the Brits. She stayed behind in rearguard action to let her ambushed army get away from the Burgundians. It's not like she was "defeated" in the style of the lopsided victories that Dehaan is referencing. We're talking nearly a century later.
Crecy and similar were early on in the 100 years war. Jeanne came towards the end. She was the beginning of the end for the Brits, executed or not. By the time she died, the French were breaking the sieges of their cities and forcing the English to hide in their castles, and then forcing surrenders with cannon. Those same Burgundians switched sides soon after, and it was goodnight for England.
@@tomh4754 - You're right, I should have just said Crecy (and/or Poitiers). I will amend that one. Be that as it may, the rest of what I said is correct. Jeanne was never involved in the sort of mass-longbow lopsided English victory being referenced. It _definitely_ wasn't her downfall, which ultimately wasn't even England's doing, but Burgundy's. And by her death, England was as good as cooked. They did not have the means to continue projecting any sort of sufficient power alone across the channel, and once the Burgundians realized that, they were gone.
*AGINCOURT INTENSIFIES*
Love the longbows. I like the comfort of fighting the opponent from halfway across the map.
The reason viper doesn't like that some techs like warwolf are more expensive is he often won't get to use them because he will have already have killed his opponent.
Hard life.
Mass longbow vs french knights back and forth action.
Now THIS is the aoe2 I grew up on and love :)
Everyone: "Oh no, my villagers are dying"
The Viper: "YES. Kill them all please, I need more space for longbow men"
"There is no counter to 150 Longbows"
Lol.
38:50
200 longbows.
150 mongol siege onagers
@@0thereaper0 Korean / Celt SO > Mongol SO
Siege rams: allow us to introduce ourselves
30:13 BATTLE OF AGINCOURT, COLOURIZED
lmao
Aoe2 : Total War
you forgot - "satellite view"
I see someone played medieval 2 :v
AGINCOURT WAS MORE A MUD WINNING AND WITH KIND OF PEASANT ENGLISH ANTIKNIGHTS INFANTRY YOU CAN SYMBOLIZE IN AOE2 BY HALBERDIERS: BILLMEN, A KIND OF HOOK AND AXE TO DISMOUNT KNIGHTS, SHORT HALBERDIER FOR CLOSE COMBAT, NOT RANK FORMATION, PERFECT IN THAT SITUATION.
wiki.totalwar.com/w/Billmen_(M2TW_unit).html
ENGLISH KNIGHTS HAD ALSO SPECIAL BREAKING ARMOR WEAPONS (POLE AXE: A LONG TWO HANDED WAR HAMMER AXE AND SPEAR (AGAIN KIND OF SHORT HALBERD) USED ON FEET, CAN BE SYMBOLIZED BY WELL ARMORED IN PLATE ARMOR HALBERDIERS AGAIN):
wiki.totalwar.com/w/Dismounted_English_Knights_(M2TW_unit).html
ruclips.net/video/MZUgxWLfCwY/видео.html
FRENCH KNIGHTS ARMOR WAS ALMOST UNPENETRABLE BY ARROWS, EVEN FROM BEST LONGBOW MEN WITH STRENGTHBOWS. MODERN DEMONSTRATION :
ruclips.net/video/DBxdTkddHaE/видео.html
Viper: I can not trol this game. My opponent is quite strong (respect)
Also Viper: *Trols anyways* *_(DISRESPECC)_*
Straight drushing your opponents TC, damn viper that's slick.
lol
cut 'em off at their source, MASTAPIECE
"but in theory, our economy is not the greatest"
*sits at 15 villagers*
never change, viper xD
40:17 those panic villagers lol
"We'll see how French Knights fare against British Longbows!"
20:21 Typical Biper when he loses his units, I was housed so I had to that... LMAO
30:13 *Seeing 150 longbow men in formation*
IS THIS AOE OR TOTAL WAR
26:42 TheViper became Thanos
I have always remembered his line: "There is no counter to 150 longbows"
34:06 takes a break while his long bowmen take down a castle
viper was not destroying the enemies monastery so his enemy would have gold income and try to fight him
That guy tried soooo hard to hold it together while viper just memed on him hahahahaha
Those vills being microed reminded me of the dancers in the "Thriller" video w/Micheal Jackson...lol
I can hear Donnie shouting: "Loom Viper!" xD
60 fully upgraded elite longbows with a handful of pikes to protect from paladin charges is death incarnate.
In this episode of "The Meta" Viper and his opponent, Sitaux, reenact the battle at Agincourt!
"AoE DE is not logic"
Just melted down a stone castle with arrows
But hey, they were fire arrows. Castles did burn in those days, lots of timber in them. Of course in the AOE world, mangonels and scorpions were robotic, didn't need people to push them around, load them. Rams, boats too.
The steel beams in the building wouldnt have melted though so it definitely would've been an inside job.
@@kurtbjorn3841 Fire arrows were not a thing historically.
Viper: Our arrows will blot out the sun!
Sitaux: Then we will fight in the- OH SHIT!!!
Viper: *moves mouse*
Cursor: "I am Speed"
The Internet: How many longbowmen do you want?
Silver medal player: Yes!
I will always remember now until the day I die, that there is no counter to 150 longbows.
Huskarls, siege ram, skirms, hussars, eagle warriors, plums, elefant archer, mangudai
@@xhawkenx633 Huskarls and rams with a bunch of infantry inside maybe. But otherwise, as viper said, even SO the traditional counter can't approach due to their range. The only real counter is to counterattack like his opp did, he just didn't have enough army. Longbow can't be everywhere at once so raiding is best counter.
Otherwise, against 150 longbow, probably 80 frank paladin can do the job. And that's about the only counter, besides huskarls.
Another glorious loss for France!
Kienisthename •• there is nothing new under the sun
@@flyingdutchman9053 So have you made port yet or still roaming the seas?
I hope you can change the tide of war, sitaux 🤣
We win all war against English ahah
But The English conquered Paris, did the French conquered London?
just restarted playing aoe2 again after many many years, thanks for the educationals, it really helped coming back to this great game :) also, community seems to be pretty cool
I am having siege on Paris flashbacks.
more like Crecy and Azincourt
True fan reference.
Is this the battle of Agincourt? English longbows destroying French knights
This looks like how I played vs the AI when I was a kid. Only it took me 3 times longer to mass that army.
That was glorious... Gowron would be proud.
Viper at the end of a mastapiece game or any game really can you give your opinion on what your opponent should have done to counter? Don't have to go in full detail but kind of like you did at the end of the all scout video.
I think you need a lot of skirms
150 skirms i guess
More knights earlier. Sneaky onager might have worked also... I was half expecting one to pop out from the siege workshop at any time, flatten half his army.
Siege Rams are the counter to britons
Play Goths?
The opponent was so bad
I know, beaten by a silver boi
I was gonna say you dont know what the fark u talking about - Sitaux being a French pro. But It was mr Sitaux himself xD. WP!
GG copain!
When your only play is to raid his eco, but he has no eco
Nice game ^^
this is basically an accurate recreation of the reason of the battle of the battle of Agincourt.
Saracen's team bonus would be nice here
Interesting watching the Old Vipa, watching the newer videos I think he's improved quite a bit.
The mighty Paladins of old, running away from some tall bois with long sticks with strings 11
30:31 our arrows blot out the sun
They added the animation delay to buildings collapsing specifically to prevent micro abuse from breaking the game in ways that are unfair to players who haven't hit 124958678 apm yet
that villager dance in the end XD
Kudos to the franks guy who actually put up a decent fight
A frenchmans cavalry shot to pieces by english longbowman.... im not sure but i think i have heard about something like this already ;D
30:12 the battle of Agincourt
Viper uses those longbowmen like it's 1999 Age of Kings days
RUclips awards you:
SILVER play button
Came to the comment section for hundred years war references, not disappointed
Haha this is Agincourt all over again for the French XD
That was one very chill game,like opponent said,LOL.
6:30 loom viper!
Being raided by an emeny? Looks like it's best moment to spend some time setting camera view for youtube thumbnail.
''Eddie said you don't need villagers to win.'' The man spoke, it gets proven time and time again.
"'Counters'?! There IS no counter to one-hundred-and-fifty longbows!"
"'Onagers'?! I got three more range than onagers!"
"'What if he comes close'? What IF he comes close?! He loses half his army on his way to get there!"
Siege tower with teutonic knights?
@@HaloofBlood1 siege towers with elite skirmishers are actually decent against massed longbow
I love it when you talk german!
Historically accurate
Sitaux improved so much. He is way better now. Holy shit.
40:18 this is a war crime
"There is no counter to 150 longbow"
40:20 *Sitaux proceeds to counter with Paladins + Villager Rave*
anyone notice arrows no longer stick in the ground in de. when i was little i loved the arrows lookin like they stuck in corpses during battles. and also loved how theyd degrade. aoe 2 norished my dream of becoming a bow maker in general. drunk male villager - “ MANDAugTiM!??” does anyone lol when he clicks a million time and his units spam phrases?
I remember the villagers that said “home all day”
10:21 SHE ATTACKS YOU 11 GG VIPER
I find it funny there's a confirmation box on deleting villagers in a real time strategy game :D
What's next, a CAPTCHA if you try to delete a castle?
2-step authentification for destroying a wonder
@@IschmarVI lmfao!
What a spectacular sight. Longbows.
Lmao, sjukt at han ikkje resigna før lol, was noicegeim
Jesus dude, you started building fast af. I would barely started gather sheep lmao
it's like Guerre de 100 ans , French Knight who charge british Longbowmen
big brain moves, don't need to defend your eco if you have no eco XD
150 longbows walk into a bar - there is no counter
Really enjoyed this game.
I mean if longbows got obsidian arrows, you wouldn't even need trebs xD
saracen teammate ^-^
The dream of all kids lolololoolololo longbowman attacks the castle!!
Making King Sancho proud
28:50 battle of agincourt :)
in the description, you say what the English do best. But what a lot of people don't know is that the Britons are not the English, the English/Anglo-Saxons invaded Britain. The Britons are mostly the modern-day welsh.
TheViper just did the Joan of Arc Campaign
Gets into a Briton vs. Franks situation
Our Arrows Will Blot Out the Sun.
The Hundred Years' War, Viper shows his V finger(Britons) to French at last, LOL.
My friend always pick Eng, and he always rush for Long Bowman while walling him self and I don't know how to win him when he burst out with 30++ long bow...
Prepare for imp with rams and skirms
Viper has the Briton villager “chopper” sound as a text alert. Probably.
3 house meta: when you can't find your fucking sheep.
Good lands. It's Agincourt all over again.
longbows are too OP
What a massacre at the end, lol
viper can i ask u why u put villager inside of lumber camp between trees is it because its one villager safe? or is it effective?
Extra efficiency - this villager will not bump into others and the walking distance to dump resources will be minimized
I’d like to see them buff longbows. Like, make them super expensive, but give them every possible upgrade. And about 8 extra range.
3 house meta pog
26:49 isnt it better to send the villagers to attack in a suicide wave?, they could destroy some buildings, maybe even a castle with so many of them.
Welcome back to the channel!
Your opponent panicked! All those resources wasted on paladins, when he could have garrisonned siege workshops with onagers and hope for sneaky suprise lucky shot to really turn the tide of battle!
That won't work with viper and longbows
*Britons vs Franks*
Me: Jesus it’s the 100 years war again
150 longbows 😂♥ Made my day
I kinda always start with 3 houses because i keep forget building new ones :/
damn those rainbows at the end
This is masterpiece at its best lol
gross to see cav losing to bows in Melee
witness the power of "critical mass" (once you have enough archers, no melee unit will win against them - but normally, critical mass vs. is paladins is so high that you barely ever see someone truly reach it.
