I still haven't tried ranked; only a couple of lobby . I kind of prefer doing silly things so might have to take some losses first lol. Hard to manage everything exploding after castle age
Met T90 at HC5. Had a plan of what I wanted to say, but got nervous when I was finally at the front of the line. Want to express my congratulations, love, and support to T90!
@@DeJake Nah at that point he had already built an entire housing estate at the edge of the map. It was probably just a safety measure in case he would lose more ground but he didn't lose too many houses and neither castle since then.
Haven't watched any AOE since HidenCup ended and I hadn't realised how much of a difference I can see between the best players and just the good players, just watching this has given me a new perspective on player skill even at 2k+
Exactly! Beware the pre-office Obama vs post-office pic. Or the nili pre-nac and post-nac. Optimistic happy t90 and his and Obama’s and Nili’s perfect plan….
We appreciate your work t90! Definitely excited that i came across your channel a while back and super excited to see aoe2 being brought back. Really appreciate you and your teams hard work.
Hope you enjoyed your days off. Appreciate your effort, T90 and good to see you managing the transition into regular casting again. Please take care of yourself
Just getting back into aoe2 after many many years and dude your content is some of the best around. Hidden cup was brilliant and has me totally psyched to get back playing.
Watching AOE2 in 4K always cracks me up!! lol. Did you notice that some of those villagers were wearing makeup and 2 of them had facial tattoos? Oh and one of them had a lip piercing, so cool. Switch to 4K next time, and you'll notice those things and much more! 😂🤣😂
Honestly I don't even think the onagers were super helpful, I think he would've gotten more value just going straight for mangudai, however the drill rams were clutch.
Monks need buff against balista elephant: if a group right-clicks to convert an enemy unit only 1 monks should recharge after succesfull conversion not the whole group. Then the monk bcomes playable and a real power on the field.
great game but for the t90 extra channel, bro put some travel vlogs on there. take us to the train amusement park in pennsylvania or whatever. also you gotta work on that signature bro. sign it with a big T90 crest
What's the meaning of Mayans' resources last 10% long? Does that mean they collect resources 10% slower? or they have 10% more resources in every berry bush, sheep, tree, stone or gold tile etc.?
Why would it be a bonus to collect resources slower? When a Mayans villagers takes 10 resources from something, the resource only loses 9 (as an example not exact numbers)
Hi T90, I've followed your channel on and off for some time, so I wish you consider my opinion with the necessary grain of salt. First off, thank you very much for creating the setting, upon which HC5 could occur, I really enjoyed watching the tournament and learning and interacting through chat, I think everything about it was amazing and can't wait for what's in store for the future. - - Now for the constructive criticism that I tried to voice during the event, but quickly found was not the place. - - As a relatively new and inexperienced player I welcome the clear-cut explanations, the careful descriptions and a more or less ordered way of explaining both the general aspects of the game, as well as any specifics that might arise throughout the game, and many times it felt like I was watching old friends exchanging a set of inside jokes about several topics, while they vaguely point out some aspect of the game that is rather obvious to more experienced players once it has brought to their attention. I admit that there must be some degree of pleasing your existing base, but I feel the need to express that for those that show up, this can feel extremely hostile. During the event I attempted to make a parallel with the style, tone and focus of how SC2 or LoL are cast, but soon gave up (again time and place). However, returning to that same parallel I invite you to pay close attention to those E-Sports castings', because, you will be able to follow them without ever playing any of those games. I myself have never played SC2 but am familiar with many of the metas, units and styles of play just from having followed the tournament scene a few years ago; and I believe this is not just due to the fact that as far as RTS are concerned SC2 is strictly speaking easier than AoE2 to understand and play; but because the men and women that cast it understand exactly how to explain these concepts so that anyone can watch and follow along. And this point that I make is really about growing the tournament viewer base. I believe a strategy of casting these that assumes that at all times a large percentage of viewers are tuning in for the first time, is more likely to get people to either become viewers or straight up buy the game, and the more people buy the game, the more you get to have them as viewers on your stream in a more relaxed capacity. - - Anyway, back to my normal, quiet self - - Thank you very much for the content, the work and the quality that you dish out on the daily, monthly, yearly. Best of luck on all of your future endeavors.
You should reassess what you think "clickbait" means. The title is correct and a great description of an exciting part of the game. It's not "clickbait" at all, he's just using a phrase to describe the game. I clicked on this video because I liked the title. It's not every game this happens in Age of Empires, especially at this level.
He lost all his eagles. Without them jonslow would chase down his trebs with mangudai, treb down his castle and then he would have lost all his map control in a short time. Then he would have to defend his own base against mangudai, trebs and fast mongol siege. He would have no chance to come back, mongols were just getting to their full potential.
Jonslow's civ was a 'slow momentum' one, starts off a little weak and takes time to really get going. But when it hits lategame it hits HARD. Jonslow had survived mratin's all-in push and had made it to his powerful lategame, as well as having a sizable standing army ready on a small map. Mratin didn't have much of anything left, he had lost almost his entire army, back home he basically had no economy, no unit production buildings, and no techs researched that would counter Jonslow's units. He knew that it was only a few seconds before Jonslow would be knocking on his gates with a force that he had no possible way to answer whatsoever.
Just a side-note: that video a month or two ago by one of the players was just weird. Why? RUclips isn’t the AOE2 production team meeting. So glad to hear you’re feeling that “renewed spirit”.
Randoming Mayans on Arena is a death sentence, gotta be very naive thinking this game was somewhat winnable for the Mayans guy after that quirky start.
@T90Official 📢 "4K 4K 4K 4K 4K ALERT, HOUSTON WE HAVE 4K, I REPEAT - W E H A V E 4K !!!" 📢~~ WOOOOO BABY IT'S BACK, CRISPY AS A FRESHLY COOKED HOT POCKET STRIGHT OUT THE MICROW AT 2AM AFTER 'SMERKIN DA TREES MON', WOOOO!!! 🌴✌️✌️ Ok but for real I wanna say thank you for HC5 Tristan, thank you thank you thank you THANK YOU! So many hours of great (free!) content! I really wish HC5 was available in 4K but I can understand why that would be quite difficult. It didn't remove from the amazing experience though. Maybe 4K is something to think about next year? It would be so awesome for us big screen TV watchers 😊 Love ya dude!! ❤
13:15 JohnSlow was trying to delete his wall to kill vills with his mangonel and accidently deleted the mangonel instead.
That was so painful!!!
Shoutout to IamDAD 22:34
Hey T90 love your videos, you convinced me to play my first ever ranked game a few days ago.
He did the same for me as well I got 2 wins and got crushed 2 times 😂 so much fun
I still haven't tried ranked; only a couple of lobby . I kind of prefer doing silly things so might have to take some losses first lol. Hard to manage everything exploding after castle age
@@christianderbyshire744I barley won my first game and was so excited, played again and got castle dropped in feudal hahah
Nice not as stressful as people say once you've got 1 under your belt 👍

The mustache is a little knee-weakening for sure
T90 did not point out JonSlow got Nomads too. That was kinda a big deal, though I didnt see how many houses were lost.
I was excited to see nomads too! I wonder if that also helped win him the game

It is extremely interesting. Skill gap between top ~10 and top 30 players is already huge.
Great job with HC. Glad you took some time off after!
mratin didn't just call the GG, he called the "gg ez for jonslow"
Jeeeeze! Shhhhhhh! Quiet you! Shush up! I don't wanna know that!!!
Meanie head...
Never expected to see drill battering rams!! Sweet video thanks T90! Glad you were able to take a little time away too :)
Keep it up man, you're doing a great job. You deserved the 5 day break. Better to go slow and steady than to burn yourself out.
Exactly! Beware the pre-office Obama vs post-office pic. Or the nili pre-nac and post-nac. Optimistic happy t90 and his and Obama’s and Nili’s perfect plan….
I spun up dosbox and played some Dune 2 today. Playing the Mother of RTS from 1992 made me appreciate how good pathing really is in AoE2 DE.
Played my first game of age 25 years ago roughly, still playing the same disc.
T90 makes the best content imho.
Congrats on HC5 and thank you for everything you do!
We appreciate your work t90! Definitely excited that i came across your channel a while back and super excited to see aoe2 being brought back. Really appreciate you and your teams hard work.

JonSlow winning with speedy rams 😂😂
I wanted Nomad to be the saving tech. I'd like to see it have some kind of impact whatsoever
Man, how good is Mratin? Hype moment
The title doesn’t lie. Super fun game to watch and amazing casting
Great defensive play from jonslow, true command on his back foot, sonehow managed to turn that around. Thanks for sharing this game
One thing that was odd to me was how many onagers he built instead of massing manguday and keeping 2-3 onagers only.
Honestly I don't even think the onagers were super helpful, I think he would've gotten more value just going straight for mangudai, however the drill rams were clutch.
T90, hope you enjoyed the week off! Glad to have a new Arena cast!
We like you for all the different content, T90, but mid and low ELO is still the best imho
Roughly 45min in. T90 reads chat saying “Bad life decisions brought me here”. Confirmed.
congrats on the new PC Tristan! tell us more about the new machine! :)
Jon slow!
Hidden Cup was awesome. we love arena btw
Waiting for the commentary from mratin on whether or not he realized he had elite eagles or not!
We love arena
Amazing defense from Jonslow. Makes me wanna go mongol turtle into drill siege ram, hehe. i wouldve gone steppes though
no food!
The speed of the siege units seems a bit unfair against a civ that can't get cavalry.
more arena!
So.. since Drill saved him, shall we name him "JonFast" from now?
T90, can you have a tournament or like a "Gold League" of community game winners?
Monks need buff against balista elephant: if a group right-clicks to convert an enemy unit only 1 monks should recharge after succesfull conversion not the whole group. Then the monk bcomes playable and a real power on the field.
Great game. HC was amazing. You deserve a longer vacation 😅
did they update new pathing? or was that an update especially for HC5 and not public yet?
JONSLOW WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAH! that's all I needed.
this game would NOT be the same without you
Id love if you did another step by step meta video for 2024 bro, i know theyre hard to make but I suck and need help lol
Monk rush with a civ that doesn't get redemption? No surprises how that goes..
Where i acess these comunity games on steam o tried workshop but couldant find them any clues?
Thank you for this great upload Linus!
Welcome back to aoe, hope you got out of your break what you wanted after the amazing hidden cup 5 event
Pls do 10x10 next on small map
its all because of his knowledge about tech trees
Welcome back! HC6 when?
tomorrow
this was it. You just watched it
Oi. Welcome back
Great Video T90!!!!
5:22 It's true. The map is called Pants! 🩳
Excactly!

Hey guys what's a good counter to cav archer and camel?
T90, did you ever end up taking a nap and reading a book? Or just go right back into age :)
So T90Official entered the land of clickbait in both titles and thumbnails huh...
What is this secret streaming channel???
Hello again T90!

This is why I just don’t think mayans are that good…10% longer resources and an extra villager is not enough to say they have a “good economy”
Why did Mratin quit?
I thought the Unique Tech from the thumbnail would be "Nomads" lol
Literally one of the worst castle age techs...
You are flawless and make zero mistakes
kul gem
please don't use clickbait thumbnails ie. "this..".. it's cringe and unnecessary and your fans are gonna click anyway
Ehhh Clickbait is fine if it actually is in the video and not fake shit. Also it was fairly obvious what tech was.
