hi Hera :) , can you please help me and coach me ? im back into this game after years and im starting to see that i was playing it wrong hehehe. Hep me plz :)
I 100% agree with this. More people can relate to and learn from the average player rather than watching a pro do his thing with crazy apm and micro etc
As a former League player (now I play only URF XD) I love dash he is a very great League personality. This was very very pleasing to watch and made me very happy.Great work Hera you are the best!
Great video man! As a player around Dash's level, this was extremely helpful. I really wanted to chime in on the tc discussion: I recently started using the "select all town centers" hotkey and im absolutely loving it. Shift+h -> shift+a is all it takes me to que up to 5 vills (evenly distributed across tc's), all without having to look away from fights.
Thanks for this kind of videos Hera. You show us different situations that might seem trivial for pro players and comment on how to take better decisions, like the town watch tip. Keep up this awesome content!
Can we all take a moment to appreciate how amiable and easy going Dash is? I haven't played or watched League in ages but i love how he pops his head into the AoE2 community from time to time trying to improve and only speaking wonders about the game! Thanks Hera for having him (and teaching us a thing or two in the process ^^)
This is a great concept Hera! As awesome as it is watching you and the other pros face each other, this is more educational for us average players :) I believe that's exactly the reason why T90's Low Elo series are popular, but I love the fact that you also coach players without filter instead of simply commetating. Great job and hope to see more!
26:36 More than not thinking about trash units, he needs more knowledge about civs and the full scope of army counter options. You guys talked a lot about Spearmen and Pikemen vs Cavalry, but didn't mention Camel Riders. He made 2 stables; as Chinese, he could've made Camels alongside the Chu Ko Nu instead of making Light Cavalry. Dash said he's thinking of only gold units and of "Knights and Archers", but he's not thinking about ALL possible gold units Chinese can make. Monks and Camels are very underutilised IMO. Great series start and idea btw Hera. I'm around 1300 ELO and I've found a lot of helpful tips I can pick up!
I have a question about the light cav: You said he should go pikes against the knights (makes sense) but doesnt that give the opponent the easy decision to go full scirms (against Chu ko no and pikes)? Or is it pikes first and behind that start building the stables? Awesome series btw, this is so much fun to watch, keep it up
I always cringe when people SAY xbow, the "x" takes just as long as "cross" they're both basically one syllable. It makes sense to press 1 key vs five, but doesn't it take more mental energy to say x than cross? ugh. good reviewing btw that was very educational :)
Archer rush is such a risky strat for starters because its so easy to loose your archers to TC fire or scouts with low micro skills, and loose map control. But the satisfaction to successfully split under mongonal fire
Guys nowadays think all about microing with archers. Man, think about macro. Daut is good because he is good on macro. Eco protect, know whats happening... all this is better than micro. Micro is the next step, not the first. Good stuff. And Light Cav decision was the winner move. Nice decision... Red lost his late castleage moment but Dash could return easily.
More like, everybody goes instant for the knights... That happens so much, that lot of players making preventive spearmen (and then they try to fend of my archers with em)
I'm about 1100 elo now and climbing up. This gives me hope I might actually be somewhere around 1300-1400 already. I had a one and a half year break from the game so it takes a little getting used to still.
there is a hotkey for select all towncenters. i put it on a mouse hotkey, and then you just get in the habbit of pressing the hotkey and make vills. you dont even jump back to the economy
This was frustrating to watch because Dash's elo is 100 points higher than mine even though I'm very confident I'm better than he is. Apparently if I started going all archers, I could be 1350 elo. Or maybe it was just a bad game from him. I got some good tips from Hera though.
I don't think Hera wants to coach more people right now. As he said during his stream, the 4 players he is coaching were just here at the right place and the right time, and he doesn't want to coach more than 4. You can try to follow his twitch and hope he will be looking for more players to coach in the future...
it's so weird to me. I am about 1100 ELO and I would never make the mistakes in the early game that riot did here. and i would say neither do most of my oponents. so I guess I am just really bad in mid or late game or sth
Please, please don't take game play advice from Spirit of the Law. His channel can be technically informative and serves as entertainment value, but it doesn't play out in games. Someone like Hera is the *ideal* person to learn game timing from. I've also found that TheViper, while mostly a troll streamer (again, great entertainment, but not much valuable information to be gained), will also clue you in to how the meta is adjusting, especially after patch releases. If you see him fall in love with a new unit or civ, call a unit broken, etc. that's a non-so-subtle hint that it can give you a big advantage in games.
19:10 HAND CART EARLY?!?!?! i was taught 20 years ago that handcart is the first thing u do each age advance! WTF!! lmao, a 20 year mistake.. could some one please delv in to this one and explain why, and in depth! thank you! ;)
@@boogie5 its pretty straight forward, the more vills you have the better the effect of wheelbarrow/hand cart I usually get it either on my way to imp or when im floating a lot of resources so early in game you should prioritize army and vills, its more effective
seriuosly this inst real 1250 elo....go try beat some 12+++ being same level. They will smash u. Idk if alot of smurfs or what. But they way beyond this level
Wow imagine saying you're going to make riot dash good when you can't even make HC3 have a competitive final. At least riot dash knows what it takes to make a game esports
Thanks to dash for joining me for the video. He helped me come up with the series, expect more content featuring the legend himself!
hi Hera :) , can you please help me and coach me ? im back into this game after years and im starting to see that i was playing it wrong hehehe. Hep me plz :)
Waiting for more coaching videos for sure
hi hera, make more video with dash.
This is simply GREAT content. What's lacking in the AoE world is these kinds of videos that are more geared towards the avg player. Keep it up Hera!
Thanks alot man, more content coming ur way
I 100% agree with this. More people can relate to and learn from the average player rather than watching a pro do his thing with crazy apm and micro etc

hahahaha me too

"you're making nothing for a solid minute!" ... Totally relatable, I do it all the time

Ooh quite useful tbh, will discuss it with dash
!

awesome content!
Yes! finally something for average players. Helpful as well as entertaining, looking forward to more of this!
Aoe2 + Dash is the thing I never realized I needed. Thanks Hera.
hera. bro. you just discovered a whole new format that we desperately needed.
thank you.
Riut made something like that some time ago.
Can we all take a moment to appreciate how amiable and easy going Dash is?

Big fan of this series already. I loved the beginner to 2k series, and any additional tips oriented/coaching gameplay is exactly what I want to see.
Post analysis recap from Dash is insane. The guy remembers everything oO
Awesome content! Really helpful for those of us trying to improve! Hoping for more in this series.
This is the most ambitious crossover
Dash sick of hosting League of Legends, don't blame him lmao

Thanks Hera and Dash, great vid! Will you be uploading the whole series?? This is SO informative for an aspiring low ELO legend😂
for the tcs i just took the "select all Towncenter" hotkey to 5 so i dont even need to seleckt them all there
Congrats con your Victory on BoA! Such massive and exciting play!
I've been waiting for more coaching from Hera. The series Nili had Hera coaching was full of great info.
Put me in Coach; I'm ready!
I have a question about the light cav:
You said he should go pikes against the knights (makes sense) but doesnt that give the opponent the easy decision to go full scirms (against Chu ko no and pikes)? Or is it pikes first and behind that start building the stables?
Awesome series btw, this is so much fun to watch, keep it up
I always cringe when people SAY xbow, the "x" takes just as long as "cross" they're both basically one syllable. It makes sense to press 1 key vs five, but doesn't it take more mental energy to say x than cross? ugh.
good reviewing btw that was very educational :)
"you guys never make vills when getting raided". I've never even thought about that lol
Most ambitious crossover
i like these rewatch/coaching vids. please post the other two you've commented with Dash
0:40 in and I already learnt something I did wrong today. NICE
I gotchu man, this is why people need this
jo wann machen wir mal wieder nen 1v1 :P
need more of these videos, love it!
Archer rush is such a risky strat for starters because its so easy to loose your archers to TC fire or scouts with low micro skills, and loose map control. But the satisfaction to successfully split under mongonal fire
Awesome lesson, learnt heaps about my habits!
Glad to hear it man
Extremely insightful!
Coaching videos are mad entertaining, man. We noobs can relate lol.
This is awesome Hera keep it up
I love Dash! glad he plays AoE2!
Very informative! More coaching videos please
These are the best i could think of
1) Mondays with Hera Review.
2) Mentor Hera says.
3) Here's what went wrong.
4)AEO2 101 with Instructor Hera
i enjoy this series, keep going!
as an elo 900 I love the idea for this series !!!!

i have a question about the 3 lumbercamp strat is it good to make 3 of them on a neutral island asking for a friend?
You get a lot of value if that neutral island doesn't have a woodline.🤔
3 Archery Ranges OP. (Ask T90)
@t90official kappa
He 105ied him... Good God this is funny. We need more coaching and I need to start watching LoL
I usually make 1 spear and keep it in my barracks if I'm going archers if my opponent hasn't scouted me yet.
Thats a solid habit actually keep it up
I didn’t realize you could garrison inside a barracks but that makes sense. Thanks for the tip! I’ve never seen this done in a video.
@@seanknox7321 You set the gather point to the barracks thats creating the troops and they'll stay inside. Its a good way to safely mass units.

Yo Hera ure league analogy with the junglers was really on point! What elo are you in Lol ?
Very cool video Hera!! Hi Dash :D
Next one should be Riot Sjokz. Lets see which host will perform better.
If she played aoe i could create an epic rivarly between them 11
THE 105 THOUGH
What's 105 anyway?
@@ruffymaru "You can resign now"-taunt 😂
How can we have the chance to share a game / coaching with you ?

amazing more players are comming to aoe
is riot dash here to stay or just passing?
I would love to See Game 3
it's so weird to me. I am about 1100 ELO and I would never make the mistakes in the early game that riot did here. and i would say neither do most of my oponents. so I guess I am just really bad in mid or late game or sth
I think they are playing on HD not DE. There's no way thats above 1000 on DE.
Not because of golden pit but we have to get rid of current map pool...
Where is the third game or the first game. I was busy that day and was unable to join on Twitch
Really articulate and strong mind this Hera, love the coaching, helps so much! dont miss on Twitch/Hera_aoc
Hand Cart 43 vills is actually perfect.
Source: Spirit of the law wheelbarrow hand cart video
Spirit of the Law is missing something in his analysis: how long does it take before your army production recover from the loss of resources.
Hey guys Spirit of the Law here

I dont think its worthy earlier than in imp and before 80 vills.
How do I purchase a coaching session with you Hera?
Why isn't this the full coaching session? I want to see the full vid.
Long videos arent good for youtube. Find the whole thing on my twitch
DO! MORE! COACHING!!! ♥️
Unnoticed DE bug? Why does the spectating player list show Dash as #2 red while the score shows him as #2 blue??
So, uhhh, how do we get in on this? :)
Because I need some late-game smack talk to improve XD
please more coaching videos !!!
this feels like 950 elo in the modern circuit
nowadays even lower. on 1000 most people are following a built order
Hera Academy.
That hole at 17:07 is visible at original trees...
OK.OK.OK.
1270 on Voobly here. Where do I sign up?! :D
SotL actually said handcart mid 40 villagers is the break even point.
IIRC, he found that you should get wheelbarrow at around ~38 vills and handcart at around ~80.
@@tylerfehr7883 Oh damn I thought it was 43.
@@tylerfehr7883 whereas a more accurate number is 15-20 farmers for wheel.
that is what 1250 ELO is? like top 15% of players? jesus, I really do have to start playing ranked games 1vs1

watch spirit of the laws video on it, i believe its not worth it before 80 something pop but thats just what i remember from his video
@@MrDiehardNoob i wonder why.. so strange.. man, my "pro" friend wasnt very pro at all :P
@@boogie5 its pretty straight forward, the more vills you have the better the effect of wheelbarrow/hand cart
I usually get it either on my way to imp or when im floating a lot of resources
so early in game you should prioritize army and vills, its more effective
how long has dash been playing age of empires?
this was his second match? did he have some knowledge before that? he obviously knows something about this game
ah he said something about voobly. oops
He's played a fair bit in the past yeah
"Coachera season 1"
The guy lost the match because of bottom castle.
Aggressive castle due to army superiority in the middlegame=gg
What is 105?
one o five? what's that?
So you want to be a pro?
seriuosly this inst real 1250 elo....go try beat some 12+++ being same level. They will smash u. Idk if alot of smurfs or what. But they way beyond this level
How is this guy 1250
Stop saying eggs bows lmao.
even in other games rioters are the equivalent of silvers LMAO
What is this, he is playing really bad compared to a 1000 elo player
Wow imagine saying you're going to make riot dash good when you can't even make HC3 have a competitive final. At least riot dash knows what it takes to make a game esports
64 comments on this channel, and all of them are abusive... Are you okay man? How's your mental health?
Woah, why the negativity?
HE MADE IT TO THE FUCKING FINAL WHY ARE YOU SO UPSET
The level of dense you have to be to make this comment is off the charts
Wow Nate, why do you have to be so negative :( ?
