Vipey not believing that we folks watch games that have his name more than other games :)
Yeah, that's some humility and lack of understanding of the crowd :D
I know I definitely tune in if there's Viper's name, and I'm maybe less excited by Liereyyy vs Hera
@@IlmarcheseJacky I watched only Viper's matches during NACV, which is kind of a shame, since the tournament was such a banger, but I have limited time. I find that I'll make time to watch Viper, but not any of the other players exclusively.
@@shaun4772 same for me. Also this video was in my youtube page for a long time but didn't click on it untill I saw viper reacting on it. I'm a simple man, I see viper I click.
Same here. He is one of the first I have ever watched, I like his personality and comments, I like his play more than others
@@arturito9955 my gateway drug for AOE2 content was actually T90, like many, but nowadays I prefer Viper's content: more relaxed, and deeper in the game knowledge rather than entertainment
I think you're also missing that while the one viper vs hera (for example) match does slightly worse than if the player names were known, the other 12-14 sets do better because they could be viper-hera, so it's way more beneficial over all
To Vipers comment near the end: "we could have me and Hera face each other in the round of 16 for example, thats not good for anyone." Wrong. That is not good for whichever of you loses the match. Its great for all the other competitors! And as a fan and veiwer I do think thats part of what add to the appeal of the tourney. We may have a big knockout early, we may not! and we won't know until the end!
It is a short term benefit to some of the other players, but long term it is probably better for the entire competitive scene to not have one of the two biggest names knocked out in the first round.
I hope T90 also reacts to this, he'll probably be so embarrassed by someone basically fangirling over him.
I think eventually this guy will make a video on my career and include candid shots of me working hard and improving my game and finally breaking 1000 elo using goth skirms, then you can react to it and feel honored by the commitment of an entire low elo career dedicated to only masterpiece attempts
Yeah, I was thinking that! It's all good fun with Viper, Hera and T90 - but where is the kevinwilliams6337 OP goth skirms video? Guess we'll just have to be patient.
120 goth skirms, individually controlled with perfect micro, facing up against Viper, KevinWilliams doesn't even see the units anymore, just sees the code.
The hero names for the hidden players was a great idea. Also loved the talkshow as I was so hyped for Hidden cup any content around it was an instant watch/listen.
I also never opened up twitch before watching T90. So definitely right about converting casual players to more hardcore fans of the game.
Just wanted to say that mic foam and pop filters do similar jobs but not the same. Pop filters mainly filter out pops or plosive sounds and the mic foam is more for wind and other noise in general while also just acting like a bit of armor for the capsule.
The funny thing is Viper has several plosive sounds right after he said the thing about the pop filter being unnecessary - which you wouldn't have heard nearly as much if he had one himself :D
Saladin producing a random elephant at the end of a game will be forever etched in my memory
What I really want is something like this about memb and his impact on the game long term
Nah he's too much... kinda annoying.
@@halilibo288 Memb's been casting to thousands of viewers almost daily (literally daily for a stretch of almost 3 years at one point) and hosting massive S-tier 1v1 and team game tournaments, active for well over a decade, longer than any other well-known caster at this point.
But halilibo288 in the RUclips comments thinks he's kinda annoying so, nah he doesn't deserve to have a video made about him.
@Nysyarc lol not trying to hate if u watch him u can see he's too much sometimes and people can see that as annoying
The contrast with other streamers is really big what makes it a bit annoying, for example during Nac5 the memb/nili was the worst combination. As a solo caster he is awesome @@halilibo288
@@NysyarcI second halilibo views. We don't need a fangirl video about Memb. That would be quite disrespectful to long time AOE fans...
Cant wait for, T90 reacts to Viper reacts to "The Genius behind ...."
4:40 one of the reasons the hera vs yo semi got less views imo is because it was much shorter, when a b05 is under 2 hours and theres a draft included in that time its pretty obvious its gonna be a 3-0 or 3-1 game which "isnt as interesting" hidden cup shows us that any game can be fantastic outside of the context of the set but as a viewer with limited time in the day to consume AOE2 it can have an effect. even i try not to look at the time because if i know the result (currently 3-1 in a b05 and i accidentally notice theres only 20 mins left on the video) it kills any hype i have for rooting for the reverse sweep.
The max making it to the finals, and almost beating viper, I think speaks to the “viper effect”. Can’t wait for surprise this year.
myeah honestly im not sure this qualifies as reaction content ;) but you helped me find the og channel so let''s hope others find it through this :)
Hidden cup i3 was my entry to watching AOE2. I never played AOE2, but somehow, someway, I'm here still watching tourneys and games and I enjoy it a lot.
What happened in the recent NAC might start to have an effect. People will lose interest when there are complete blow-outs. People want exciting matches unless there are new and interesting players entering the scene for a 20 year old game (subtext: unlikely).
In a studio room the pop filter alone should do the job. Foam cover is more to protect from unwanted background noises, but can also be helpful if you move around a lot or when the room has some echo.
If something I would have liked to hear about T90's player skills, because he is not just caster, he is actually good player.
Thanks for the reaction video Viper, and even though you didn't win NAC this year. I still think you're the best player.
T90 got me interested in AOE2 - Viper vids made me want to play.
I think RUclips views are going to be around 20k, Nili had 8K for NAC 5, and he has no RUclips presence.
I also think some people will double up and watch on both in twitch and RUclips to help pump the numbers (I know I will). What the peak will be is anyone's guess. lets have some predictions, I think 92k (both RUclips and Twitch combined)
yeah i think hidden cup focus on average viewers rather than peak view. let's say hera and viper play against each other on a normal tournament, it will have a big view peak, but the rest of the games like, idk, barles vs vinchester or dogao vs villese will not have high views... while hidden cup makes people watch all the games expecting to see one of their favorites play
Became a fan of AOE2, T90 and TheViper on the same occasion - Hidden Cup 2. Can't wait for HC5 !
I love the dad humour, ur prepared Vipy!
I love this series, but Tiramis is doing such a good job with these videos, maybe you could wait a week or so before reacting to his vids to give people a chance to find his videos first? I'm sure most of the people who watch the videos here won't go back to his channel as well, which is a shame. :D
thats true, i also tought he is stealign views. but i found tiramis one first so in the end i watched it twice xD
I appreciate the thought! Although, I think this is benefiting me a lot (my second video would never have had 25k views if Viper and Hera had not reacted to my first video), and Viper even asked for my approval first. So I don't see this as stealing as someone else mentionned, I see it as a massive growth boost! :)
@@Tiramis_ didn't know they asked, i really love the aoe2 community and the creators :)
@@Tiramis_ Alright, if they asked first that's fair enough. I didn't actually imagine Viper was wanting to steal any views, just thought maybe the thought didn't cross his mind. Cheers! :D
@@Tiramis_ Yeah never heard of your channel before the Viper reacted to the documentary about him. Now I've subscribed with notifications "on" so I caught the T90 video as soon as you uploaded it.
I forgot viper was in the corner of the video 1111, im gonna give tiramis the view
I’m in tears watching viper rewind to Snekuman 😂
The Best Episode of Low Elo Legends is by The Viper
There were more than 8k viewers on RUclips on NAC, and Nili channel on RUclips Is nothing compared to T90's one... So I think that 100k is doable
"It's mostly for the viewers, less for the players" - what pros need to hear every time they complain about entertaining tournament settings. No entertainment = no viewers = no money = no pro players
I absolutely watched your semi, and skimmed the finals.
Thats true. I only watch aoe video where viper play.Whether its 1v1,4v4 or tournament game.I cant sit around and see all players playing, Viper's contents are enough.
Only the other one i can watch is Daut
No matter what both of them are humble true legends of aoe2
I reckon TheViper 🐍 is having some fond memories (even "Snekuman") as he watches this excellent video by Tiramis. 👍
@ 18:25 "WHAT a SELL-OUT!" Oh, sir, that's brilliant! 💎😂
I can't wait for Hidden Cup 5! 😁
M 🦘🏏😎
Resuming NAC, to a " LAN event " is really disrespectful, I'm so sad Nili stopped...
did t90 have a glow up between when he started to now? looks so different in a good way
It’s the pornstache
I basically only watch ehen viper is playing. Just something about his style that makes it interesting
The background images have nothing to do with AI, are real images/screen captures.
Looking forward to watching Hidden Cup 5 Live on RUclips! Excelsior!
AOE4 and Facebook both tried to kill AOE2. What does not kill you makes you stronger. AOE2 is bigger than ever.
T90 once done a LEL on me and it made me improve my game, maybe not ELO😢
tiramis video is great, and viper's comments make it even better
Never apologize dude. You have inspired so many people to play this game. That is enough. :)
quick question: why would I watch Tiramis's video when I just watched it with The Viper?
aa Biper had my name during that touranmen 😄👌👏
T90 cashed out, FB had a sh*t platform and now coming back. Very intelligent business move.
You'd do the same.
@@m1a2r3l4o5n6 that's what I'm saying. I'm just surprised FB handed him and Viper a ton of money for the stint and made the user experience so bad.
I think it was about long term viability, more than a short term money grab. T90 has expressed many times that he never wants to do anything else for a living. Now, he'll never have to. I really think it's as simple as that.
@@lesalbro8880 yeah probably. For him and Viper it makes total sense. I was just thinking FB probably wanted them for the long run but did such a poor job that no one wanted to stay there.
08:44 crazy editing
@4:40 No, Viper, it really is so. The moment you or DauT are out of a tournament, I don't really care a whole lot anymore. It hurt watching you and DauT having to battle it out in NAC5.
Twitch lags and stutters bad. RUclips does not. That's why youtube for me. Not much reaction from Viper, but interesting video. Based on the last showing, I don't think a Viper vs. Hera matchup is going to bring the crowd. Sorry, buddy.
Hmm what if T90 also made a deal with mr. Snek over here acting all innocent to react to the video so Hidden Cup would get even more exposure 🤔
I usually like these reaction videos but this was kind of "empty". Those of us who've already watched Tiramis' video didn't get much extra reaction from you in this one. It's helpful for Tiramis that you highlight his work but there was only some "yeah", "look at that guy", "why does he have the foam and the pop filter" in the first 15 minutes and that was about it. Again, I really like the reaction videos but then there has to be a "reaction", too!
Edit: okay so apparently you realise this near the end. Perhaps just sharing Tiramis' video on social media is better in that case to highlight his work and only make reaction videos if you feel like you have something to react to.
I agree. The flow of the video as well was so good and on point that it felt more like a watchalong and there weren't many spots where it felt natural to stop and talk.
But it's also Tiramis' wish that I do this react, so there you go. In the future once his channel has grown properly, I would only upload a react if it's a "proper react".
Yo always looks like his opponent farted and its wafting over
I honestly bailed on watching a lot of AoE content after the facebook deals, and I can't really stand Hera's personality. But I'll be running to support a hidden cup 5 this year.
These react videos are brilliant. To Hera’s point on the podcast, there is a lot more content you and the pro scene can exploit to further monetise and increase reach.
yea where is hidden cup ! lol
Yes TheViper - it is as straight forward... if you don't play... I most likely don't watch... ;)
i have RUclips premium so i will be watching on RUclips
Look at that sexy guy lying there at the front at 12:20. Who is that?
I agree with most things, except t90 is not the best caster. It's Dave
viper you need work as a react youtuber xD. This was more of a watchalong.
11:26 11
Why was there a break in the Hidden Cup series?
It was during T90's time on Facebook; he only had very few viewers there so T90 decided that Facebook is not a platform to host such a great event. Now he's back on Twitch and so it's Hidden Cup
T90 was dead to many people while he was taking zuck bucks
almost like the video forgot to explain it or something.
It's explained at 18:15
@@hazard_209 Oh really, I missed it then.
For the algo
gg
Wow, stealing hard work from a small creator? You're so cool!
react harder damn it
Not very transformative in your use here vipey….. naughty naughty.
My view is the 6666th view 😱
He should make a video about how every AoE 2 player sold their soul to Microsoft and nearly killed the game when AoE 4 was released. :)
so funny
Mods twist this guys balls counter clockwise
Oh no, my favorite content creator is pursuing an opportunity they enjoy that could hugely positively impact their personal life… but it’s not what I LIKE!! Reeeeee
Tbh i think a lot of us expected more people from aoe2 to be hyped about a new aoe game but also expected aoe4 to be a better game than it is or was at launch
So, working with a new sequel and hoping it does well is selling your soul? dude you need to get out more and touch grass. I dont like AoE4 either, but it others like it, thats fine!
