The reason 2020 is going so badly was because SotL videos didn't have a full length intro. Now that order and law has been restored, all will be well again!
Order will be restored once he gives us a Huns and Britons Overview. I still have no idea if Tarkans are good, since his Huns overview doesn't use his current standards.
Please NEVER EVER remove the part where the villager runs up to the car and blows it up at that specific time with the tune! It's so iconic to ur channel in my humble opinion :-) and yeah I'm a sub since u were at 1k subs so I've seen many of ur intros where u cut that part out, glad u left it in tho
I really love bulgarians, they are my favorite civ. Sadly the lack of eco bonus makes it hard to compete with strong civs on specific maps. Hera even listed them as low tier in his overall tierlist. Broke my heart
I think they're cool too but really not top tier not a great eco and nothing is too op other than the konnik but konnik is enough to make them above average boy do i love konniks
I have never played the game, but bulgarians seem like the thing bulgarians will like. I'm an example, cuz it seems really fun, but I dont like strategy games.
I like how even tho the new intro contains definitive edition clips, he kept the important ones such as the villager killing cobra car and the goth game plan :)
@Obi Dark in bulgarian konnik means literally horseman . The bulgarian civilisation is really famous with their horseman because they never give up and their scary af just like the russian horseman
Hopefully getting Tatars next. I came to see a Tatars overview when they got recently buffed and realized he hadn’t done it yet 11. Pretty sure Keshiks are one of the most cost efficient UUs now can’t wait to see the calcs
did a little analysis video myself after the buff and 17 keshiks vs 10 paladins the keshiks won with 8 full hp units remaining. 16 vs 10 is probably more equal in terms of resources, but even then the keshiks still win in castle or post imperial age. except vs halberdiers and maybe heavy/imperial camels, keshiks trade into almost any unit and come out on top in resources. keshisk have been this crazy since december when the resources were reduced. the train time reduction helps a lot for making them a castle age viable unit. imperial it isn't as crazy. edit: and i just tried 13 FU elite keshisk vs 10 FU generic heavy camels. which is about equal resources. only two camels survived with a combined total of 112 hp. the keshiks generated 64 gold in the engagement. basically making the resource trade even.
Jimmeh Boy not surprised to see this, I’ve been streamrolling pretty hard by starting out with CA until I have maybe 30 FU, by then I usually have a castle or two up then do a switch to keshiks as the cost efficient meatshield. The 700f 900g Elite keshik upgrade isn’t that much more than getting hussar and with their cheap cost it’s sick. I’m only 1100 so maybe this won’t work as well at higher levels but damn does it feel strong
Jimmeh Boy id be interested to see them in a matchup vs elephants, usually seems impossible to take a good fight against them massed up. I don’t expect keshiks to do particularly well but i could be wrong
can you maybe add a sort of "weak against, good against, good with" segment at the end of the video? like for example these are bad against teutons and work well with spanish cause they seem kind of reliant on gold units. that would be pretty cool
Wayyy too many variables to ever say this civ is always good against that one, really.. Theres a reason pro players will usually answer 'it depends' if asked such a question while streaming :)
@@MrDiehardNoob yeah but i think in this case for example theyd seem to have a pretty bad match against Teutons for example, cause those counter pretty much everything they can muster exept for the cav archers, but even those can be countered with siege or just slowpushing with castles.
Excellent video! Just one thing about when you mention Bagains tech's cost: don't forget you already got militia line upgrades automatically, so when talking about costs, probably could have made a cost comparison to all the upgrades(I know you mentioned earlier in the video, but you didn't put them side by side later on) so while the cost of Bagains is a drawback, I believe it would be offset by the militia line upgrade costs.
50% of 60 seconds is 30 seconds. 60 - 30 = 30. Why 40? Great video! By the way konnik is pronounced with a second n after the first(kon nik but without a pause) :) native Bulgarian here
If the blacksmiths are working 50% faster, it means they do 1.5 seconds of work in every second. Therefore it takes them 40 seconds to do 60 seconds of work, as 40 x 1.5 = 60.
For guy who played this game religiously since it launched in the late 90's, i wouldn't have imagined that i would learn anything new by now, but you man showed me that there is alot of things that i didn't realize were there, so i respect you for that and love what you are doing. Also on side note would you be interested in making a video about "unit queue" or the limit of commands that you could give for perhaps a villager and a military unit.

Finally got my Dad on Steam and we've been playing AoE 2 DE during quaranteen. He hasn't played since the original Age of Conquerors so I'm often explaining to him the new strategies, maps and civs, trying to get him to sub to your channel to help him get caught up. All that being said it's still just fun to be playing with (or against) him again after 15 years.
Thank you SO MUCH fo going back to using the full intro song. It's the only intro on a RUclips show that I watch through every time and the banger is a large part of that.
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAH I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO SINCE I BOUGHT DE!! Also god damn archers, I always end up trying to sneak a few light cav around to get to them
Hey spirit! love your videos! it's one of those things that keep me happy during quarantine. In the craziness of these days it really helps, thanks for the hard work and keep making videos forever ....
First off, the old lenght intro is back and it's awesome. Secondly, great overview of the Bulgarians. I love how their gameplay style for defenses is so different and unique one might actually think they're playing another game other then Age of Empires II. At least that was my impression watching your video.
Its my favorite Civ, mostly because I can use my two favorite units: Twi Handed Swordsman and Husars. That said, I play non-ranked, and I am not good at all, so my playstyle is not really competitive, but in casual setups an army of Bulgarian Two handed Swordsmen and Husars can hold up pretty good against the paladins^^
Lovely intro in DE! Finally! Ps FF: Koń/Konj/коњ means Horse. Konik/Konnik means Small horse/Horseman. Konnica/Konjica/коњица means Cavalry. In many EuroEastern and/or Slavic nations.
Great timing, Spirit of the Law. My most recent game on AOE2 was against a Bulgarian player. I rushed early with man at arms and archers. Against any other civ, I would have won. But I ended up losing, because the Bulgarian player managed to build cheap Kreposts covering all the map resources. And I had trouble countering his Konniks. It seems like my camels were good against the cav unit, but then when it dies it spawns an infantry man which was really hard to deal with. Seems like this video was just the thing I needed!
Mr. Spirit of the Law i have a question for you: In your opinion what is better: Skirmishers with all attack-range upgrades without the last armor or skirmishers with all armor upgrades without the last attack-range upgrade?
Hey. I'm a low Elo player and Bulgarians are my new favorite civ. They are very flexible which is useful if you get countered (some men at arms kills the pikemen my opponent makes when he realizes I'm going for knight rush). Moreover I like the fact that building a defensive tower to counter early rushes doesn't prevent me to build an another TC right after advancing. I think it's a good civ for beginners
I would assume that now that Bulgarians also get 50% off the food cost of Blacksmith and Siege Workshop prices (which saves up to 2,275 food in siege upgrades), they are an A for siege rather than an A-?
Hi SOTL. Nice video as always. Can you do a video on how much more units (same units with same upgrades) you need to win while fighting uphill. Will it be 25%+25% or 25%x25% or something in between?
Hello Spirit of the Law! Really like these kinds of videos. Can we get an updated video for the Bulgarians? It has been several years and they have some solid changes that would be good to be mentioned in a video. Thank you and wish you good health!
History nerd here: 1. I never, ever judge AoE 2, beacuse AoE 2 is cool the way it is. 2. Did you guys know the last Tsar of Bulgaria is still alive? His name is Simeon II (1943-1946). Of course he was a little boy back than, but nevertheless he is one of the last two surviving world war 2 era state leaders.
@@martijn9568 The Dalai Lama. He was enthroned in 1940. Of course he was 5 at the time. The last adult leader who had a serious role in the war was king Michael I of Romania (1940-1947). He died in 2017.
Are there any "missing" Civ types? eg: Bulgarians are Infantry/Cavalry, Vikings are Infantry/Navy, Celts are Infantry/Siege Is there any combination not represented in game?

Love Bulgarians. Made a mod for them that changes the Konnik around a bit. Making the Cav version more of a "medium" cavalry unit, and the infantry konnik that spawns has Champion stats. I thought it would be interesting to give them Champs, but in a roundabout way. Also made it so you can train Konniks from Krepost for the same price. Paying a lot for no horse, but you get direct infantry support from kreposts, which could come in handy in very niche situations, if you have the money for it. I feel like its actually rather balanced so far. Cav version is weaker in some situations, but the infantry konnik is a strong powerhouse that can suprise an enemy from their raiding potential.
