  • Ace of Emeralds is a player who has one thing on his mind... mining! Expanding as far as the eye can see, Ace sets out to mine all the gold and stone on the map. Is this too ridiculous to work, or exactly why he will win??

    Patching the hole in blues wall with your own gate was such a galaxy brain move. The castle was just a distraction, he came there to patch the wall up so later on it'd give Blue the false sense of secured and walled base, just what he needed to sneak TKs in and turn the game around.
    Blue has always been a pawn on Ace's 4d chess board.

    You know that feeling you get when you play against AI, where you're just constantly one-upping them and countering their every move. You're so outpacing the computer player that you're just building stuff in their base and clowning on them.
    That's what Ace's style is. He was just playing with blue, like blue was just a computer opponent.

    The spot where we intend to fight must not be made known; for then the enemy will have to prepare against a possible attack at several different points; and his forces being thus distributed in many directions, the numbers we shall have to face at any given point will be proportionately few.
    For should the enemy strengthen his van, he will weaken his rear; should he strengthen his rear, he will weaken his van; should he strengthen his left, he will weaken his right; should he strengthen his right, he will weaken his left. If he sends reinforcements everywhere, he will everywhere be weak.

    I admit having the same thought of sneaking out to take the exposed resources early in other RTS games.
    Tbf, it does probably work a bit vs lower competition levels. Those opponent-levels are not as good at scouting, so there is a good chance they won’t correctly guess which sector of the map has your exposed gatherers to find it, or at least not before you’ve taken most of the resource. But now that auto-scout is a thing, it’s less likely to work.

    Well played to both players. It infuriated me that blue didnt tske out red's TC and military buildings right after taking out the castle in red's base. If blue would've done that and scouted, he would've won.
    Also: all army hotkey would've been useful for both.

    Since watching your videos I’ve realized I was playing OG AOE2 all wrong back in the day. I NEVER made so many villagers.

    I seriously love your older videos that have the mod with the smug smilling face on the unfinished castles, your later videos suffer fron the lack of it

    At 19:22, Red could take all his vils, send them to blue's base, rip down the wall, and drop a castle, then two more castles.

    The one thing this game is missing is Spies. At its lowest it would cost 800 gold, and he had over 2k.

    I love how red took all the outside res, saving his base res for later. only to lose his base and never take his 7 tile gold LOL
