im digging up a really old video as I have found the channel late.. but this map as made me wish for something even more now. Some kind of "hit map" that if the unit could not physically hit the target due to terrain or other issues it would not fire at it and choose a different target priority for a unit that it could hit. Its always annoying when a unit is just shooting at a wall when there are other targets to be after.
anyone else thought he was saying, "Lu Xun" until reading the names? thought it would've been a pretty clever nickname with him being a preeminent chinese general, strategist and all
Would you mind putting a link to ZLO's channel in the description Gyle? He's got a load of great material there, including his own video of this game from his stream in which he explains a lot of what he does, and usually uploads several videos each day.
das shit gut. I dunno if you still do casts, but I will slowly creep my way through all of the one that are there, till youtube stops recommeding them :D
I must ask, how do they get there engineers to just go on reclaiming sprees? All I am aware of is shift clicking and setting multiple reclaims but that would seemingly take way to long for what there engineers are running about doing.
6:57 Lobo on the right got reclaimed by the engineer that just finished construction of the mass extractor lol. Just saying cuz i cant be asked to look through comments to see if anyone has said yet. lol. Keep up the good work gyle XD
i'm not familiar with the meta of this map, but forgive me for asking- with three crabs playing underwater patty-cake with the atlantis, why not charge those goliaths where they belong? in the other guys base. Their torp damage is just not enough to justify wasting their health and resources underwater.
Whats puzzling is why Lu Xun didn't start producing Coopers against the Megaliths when he was clearly DOMINATING the surface battle. I mean, the Coopers have some of the best torp defense in the game that would've neutralized the crab's torpedoes and are lethal killers themselves. Spending mass on building just 40-45 of them would've been a lot more efficient than spamming the pointless numbers of Atlantis. And had he done so, he would've rolled up to Zlo's harbor early in the game and bombarded his bases to dust.
Having at least one Atlantis cuts down on Cybran stealth shenanigans. Atlantis also have superior range as compared to Coopers. Coopers in large numbers are also going to suffer pathing issues. All of that said, I agree that he should have build significant numbers of Coopers once he realized how many Megaliths were showing up. Having zero torpedo defense in your fleet is a BAD idea.
say +Gyle what mods are in play here?i mean it looks like some things have been graphically improved like particles and what not or is it just the latest update or something?
can someone help me, ive been trying to log into FA Forever but it work work, is anyone else having this problem it says auto crash from pre log, ive tried re installing it again but didnt help

atlantis has a better dps than mega under water, but because of mega life : mega > atlantis in 1v1. though 1 mega cost 3 atlantis, and in 3v1, atlantis win (even if they don't have torp defense)
Lulu had better beginning of the match. However, you should play this map a bit to learn strategies. It's nice map for two players, or better for three, when two of these three players are sharing resources supposed to be used by one player.
I think it has to be said it was a terrible match on Luxun side despite having an early advantage. No shielding for SML, no shielding for arty, spamming atlantis and summits against crabs and barracudas, sending these summits on suicidal missions as free mass for Zlo.... He did a lot to lose that game.
just watched it. It was very strange from Luxy. Surely a handful of strats could of smashed the Scathis? and like you say no shielding and the unit comp was terrible. 2-3 satelites would of won that could of picked off everything that wasnt under shields.
Literally all the games that get hosted in my current ranking area (600) are either Gap of Rohan, Fields of Isis, Fields of Isis for 6 players and Waters of Isis. Fucking boring ass turtle fests. Funny to see the pros play one of these.
Yeah Setons gets too much love, there are other interesting maps to play. However there isn't really a good 5v5 map in the map pool. The new one 6castlesv4 is pretty cool.

2:50 terrain is bad there, i was not allowed to place my factory where i wanted
I really wish could be as good player as you. My favorite FAF player. Unlucky factory terrain issue.
GYLE YOU'RE AWESOME!!
Yes he is.
very impressive game,weird map but a lot of stuff happend. Interesting lack of air from ZLO. Both players played so good. Also great cast Gyle
House Stork - "Torpedoes Are Coming"
Stark
Stork = UEF Torpedo bomber ;)
06:57 the lobo indeed got reclaimed by the brave little engineer!
actually, he was going to be captured but luxy ctrl k'ed it

finally, another waters of isis. Great cast gyle!
You'r one awesome commentator, keep up your work!

A bit late to this, but his name was Lu Xun for the first couple years of Gyle Cast.
Great cast Gyle! No wonder the center planet in GW has your name on it.
err.... it does?
I love it when a cybran wins...
I love cybran in general
+Mancboy2000 Agreed ;)
Spoiler lmao
Bro. Spoilers
@@gt-bz7zw ...I posted this *6 years ago* and the video wasn't new then. Really you shouldn't have scrolled down.
that was a great naval game. close enough to be epic, i think it should be

Yeah, I have to second this -- I love watching ZLO's stream and uploaded videos. He's quite prolific.
Aaron Mitchell
I love his voice. But he's too addicted to cookie-clicker hahaha!
2 years later: what is link for his channel?
Jasper RTS google zlo_rd and the first two results should be his RUclips and Twitch channels.
thx :)
What happened to the UEF tech 3 vanilla sup com anti arty shield???
Don't mind if i post my POV of this game?
[GG] Water ISIS ranked against LuXy
das shit gut. I dunno if you still do casts, but I will slowly creep my way through all of the one that are there, till youtube stops recommeding them :D
Iam the First one who waiting for HD!
Wow, that's a pretty cool twist to such an awesome map XD
What a horrendous looking map! Never ever gonna play it.
Seeing pro's play on it still makes it fun though.
Thanks for the game and the cast.
Great map for flanking and harass though.

10000th sub =D love your videos you should make some tutorials
28:00, I was pretty sure lux_un was going to win, after killing all that power (and the tech 3 arty under construction)
reclaim OP as lux_un said :P
I love the sound of torpedoes getting dropped by storks :D
how did he micro that first bomber - drop so often bombs ?
This was intense!
Does targeting the water above a sub do reduced damage?
Why no T2 torpedo boats? I feel like those would have been a better investment than all these Summits that couldn't hurt the crabs.
6:57 Lobo on the right got reclaimed by the engineer that just finished construction of the mass extractor lol. Just saying cuz i cant be asked to look through comments to see if anyone has said yet. lol. Keep up the good work gyle XD
6:53 he reclaimed the Tank lol

Its all standard in the FAF client.
it seems better than mine...... hmmm......
where did you get water of isis
+Michael Nielsen if you find/found out.. let me know :D
Use the faf client? Search it in the vault.
oh ok thanks.

ty
best game ever made :D
Good cast, good players, good game =)
Yep, i should have spam torp boats and t3 fix arty. I had not play uef's late game since a long time.
Still rusty?
I belive the Atlantis has a very low DPS with its torpedos so a rush with coopers would be a better option
atlantis has a better dps than mega under water, but because of mega life : mega > atlantis in 1v1.
though 1 mega cost 3 atlantis, and in 3v1, atlantis win (even if they don't have torp defense)
9:09 lu xun murders all of zlo's inties with a cruise missile.
Okay those Atlantis should have been targeting the crabs if they weren't around 35-40 min in game
I like this map.
Why did he say UEF have no weapons?
I think hes referring to thier lack of amphibious and hover units. espec in the first 2 techs
ausguymac riptide = UEF t2 floating tank.
And LuXy doesn't even build a single Cooper...
Awesome game
Yeah, Atlantis subs should be beefed.
After 30mins of sub spam he builds torps.. What a 2k pro move.. xD
"hold on to your potatoes"
how did you know i had a can of pringles -_-
Luxy took way too long to work out ground fire on the Barracudas...
Wow Gyle could you have been any more bias lol
... He always is pal, he lost a sister to the Cybran Uprising ya know...
BTML498 Damn, that explains a lot...
turtling should be as viable as rush, it should be a multi strat game.
Lulu had better beginning of the match.
However, you should play this map a bit to learn strategies. It's nice map for two players, or better for three, when two of these three players are sharing resources supposed to be used by one player.
at forst i thought you said autism of isis

too many battle-cruisers, too many Atlantis, not enough sub hunters.
not enough coopers
small map, easy to counter air
Megalith+ Barracudas beats any navy.
Would you like to play with me in FAF? My Name is LuhkSkaiwolgker there. Nice Video tho!
Don't care for this map. When there's a good player involved it's still fun to watch though.
Literally all the games that get hosted in my current ranking area (600) are either Gap of Rohan, Fields of Isis, Fields of Isis for 6 players and Waters of Isis. Fucking boring ass turtle fests. Funny to see the pros play one of these.
It's worse at 300, I hate ladder and all of the maps are unranked setons. It gets very boring very quickly.
DreamCrusher112 Why the avoidance of latter ;_; ?
The unranked Setons? I love setons, but I don't want to play it all of the time, whilst not getting a higher ranking :)
I made a bad typo lol. I meant ladder matches
Yeah Setons gets too much love, there are other interesting maps to play. However there isn't really a good 5v5 map in the map pool. The new one 6castlesv4 is pretty cool.
Lu Xun played terribly, why didnt he get destroyers
$
i think mass coopers would do far better
I must ask, how do they get there engineers to just go on reclaiming sprees? All I am aware of is shift clicking and setting multiple reclaims but that would seemingly take way to long for what there engineers are running about doing.
Patrol. If you set an Engi to patrol it'll reclaim anything in it's path.
Stuart Smith People usually use attack move (Alt + right click) instead of patrol.
