Bloodless played terribly imo. No meat shield or heavily armored support units to cover his siege in his first push. Every ram was wasted. Should’ve claimed the entire map and spammed the hell out of his army with every supporting unit he could to keep his siege safe while gobbling the map up… Took fights outside of castle support. Continued to hoard resources, took abysmal fights with paladins fighting halberdiers head on without going for the vulnerable archers.
Jesus Bloodless, what the hell was that? I don't like trashing on players, but that was an absolutely atrocious play from him. If you have that much map control, time and superior army, it really is quite a feat throwing it all away. A couple of Halbs as a meat shield and this battle would have been over 20 minutes ago, instead he loses all the Siege. Then he gets to Paladins and throws them against Halbs unsupported, rather than going for the undefended Arbs. And even after that, he still would have had 1400 stone, 4 relics and a tone of buildings, he could have bounced back. Losing/Forfeiting a battle after you had unopposed map control for like 30 min is something else. We all have bad games, but man. Meanwhile, Survivalist once again honors his name, even if he escaped the knock-out blow this game.
@@castofempiresOh definitely, he still was in a decent spot. Survivalist had the momentum, but he had the better eco, and Arbs+Halbs don't eat building fast. Get a defensive Castle, mass 10-15 Paladins and go afte the Arbs and remaining Siege. Again, I'm definitely not better than an 2300 Elo player, but the decisions/misstakes in this one hurt.
@@castofempires ok I just made that orc bloodlust sound my ringtone. I tried it out and my mom said it frightened her. Definitely not something you want to hear after drifting off to sleep on the couch after a big turkey dinner.
Spoiler block
Did bloodless lose on purpose? @20min mark he had 5 times the resources, still neither made a single cav nor any attempt to raid.
I never understand why pro players are so hesitant to build the outposts. Especially as Ethiopians.
Same
I think they just forget it as an option. Stone cost really restricts it's usage
Survivalist literally showed us how to survive. Great cast, great game!
Thanks!
Great cast good game
Thank you!

He had map control for such a long time together with all that relic gold
my guy had 174 vills at one point and not a single paladin.
EPICCCCCC!!!!!!!

💯
That's why I was wondering if it was they psychological damage of losing those 30 paladins that forced the GG.. he wasn't in a terrible spot

My favorite duo
Right?!
So many questionable throws from Bloodless. That 3 treb throw and awful pressure when he was so ahead, and finally wasting paladins
Those poor, poor paladins
Hello everyone and welcome... to another spoiler comment of Age of Empires!
Survivalist living up to his name. Epic battle!

Exactly
