| 566s | specific details or obviously this |
| 568s | update is out it's been out for a little |
| 569s | while now so you've probably been in |
| 571s | game experiencing these yourself |
| 572s | firsthand already |
| 574s | yeah |
| 576s | all right well so |
| 578s | should we get the show on the road |
| 579s | before we do uh actually i can tell i |
| 581s | can i can switch over to your game if |
| 582s | you want to get it get into |
| 585s | this we can talk a little bit about what |
| 586s | what what is ranked and like all that |
| 588s | too right so yes yeah let's do it let's |
| 590s | do that so let's switch my screen and uh |
| 592s | i'm just gonna hop over to the sh let's |
| 594s | uh show them where we're at show them |
| 596s | where we're at let me do this so elliot |
| 597s | you are on the camera on your screen i |
| 598s | am not so i'm just getting this voice |
| 600s | backseat driving backseat |
| 602s | telling you how to do things uh yeah |
| 604s | ranked seasons they are a new thing in |
| 607s | this update and something that's come to |
| 608s | age four as you see at the top this is |
| 611s | season one otherwise known as festival |
| 612s | of ages it's running from the 13th of |
| 615s | april through june 30th so you have this |
| 618s | long period where you can hop in play |
| 621s | ranked games and from these you'll get |
| 624s | placements after five placements you'll |
| 626s | get your tier that you place in |
| 629s | and this is your initial rank and then |
| 631s | through further games you're going to |
| 632s | move up and down as you go |
| 635s | there's different rewards at every |
| 636s | different tier um |
| 638s | a lot to work towards there as well you |
| 640s | can check all of that out on the adrian |
| 642s | empire's blog as well |
| 644s | and in this case just to get us prepared |
| 646s | for today elliot went in and did four of |
| 648s | his placements so this way |
| 651s | the first game he's playing he's gonna |
| 652s | get his placement right then and we're |
| 654s | gonna see what rank he comes into so i |
| 655s | know chat some of you have said he's |
| 657s | gonna be plastic i i feel he's gonna be |
| 659s | conqueror but we'll find out hopefully i |
| 660s | definitely won't be conqueror conqueror |
| 662s | from the very start let's just hop right |
| 664s | into it |
| 665s | i would definitely mean something when |
| 666s | wonky with the mmr in the back |
| 668s | background which we're definitely not |
| 670s | doing this is my account that i play uh |
| 673s | you know current rank elliot yes my rank |
| 675s | is elliot yeah our elliot so far yep uh |
| 678s | and still not conquer yeah not yet |
| 681s | but to quickly go over this um we've got |
| 683s | the different ranks here so from bronze |
| 684s | one two three all these silver gold |
| 687s | platinum diamond and conqueror |
| 690s | and each of them come with different |
| 692s | look at those nice conquerors |
| 694s | yeah |
| 695s | yeah basically like the higher rank you |
| 697s | go the |
| 698s | the more premium more um higher quality |
| 701s | your rewards are |
| 702s | yeah as you can see here the conqueror |
| 704s | soaring kite now this is a pipe dream i |
| 706s | really don't think i'm gonna get to |
| 707s | conquer let's let's be brutally |
| 710s | brutally honest here okay and that's the |
| 711s | thing is playing in ranked it's to see |
| 713s | where you place and that's part of the |
| 714s | fun of it you don't need to make it all |
| 716s | the way to concord if you do huge huge |
| 718s | props to you because that's not an easy |
| 719s | task that is |
| 720s | that is some real talent some real skill |
| 722s | some real |
| 724s | time devoted to playing the game or |
| 725s | somehow you lucked out and you're just |
| 726s | absolutely amazing i don't know but |
| 729s | wherever you place on ranked is is great |
| 731s | because it's somewhere over the seasons |
| 733s | you're going to be able to see yourself |
| 735s | progress there and get better as well |
| 736s | hopefully yeah exactly and then the main |
| 738s | thing is that once you've placed you're |
| 740s | going to be landing somewhere where |
| 742s | you're going to be with similar |
| 743s | opponents and that's going to help you |
| 744s | grow as a player and be better at the |
| 746s | game as well as you face more and more |
| 748s | challenging opponents as you continue to |
| 749s | get better at the game |
| 750s | yeah but yeah and so as we can see from |
| 753s | elliot's placements uh his first one he |
| 755s | lost so it turns red on the ui there in |
| 758s | that little pip on the top and then the |
| 759s | other three he did after that he was |
| 761s | victorious so so far he's doing pretty |
| 763s | good uh 3-1 win loss race there so we'll |
| 766s | see how this last game goes uh and this |
| 768s | will get him his first placement rank |
| 770s | and we're gonna try to get at least one |
| 771s | more game after that uh yeah we'll see |
| 773s | yeah we'll see how many how long the |
| 775s | games go yeah |
| 777s | like 45 minutes it was just like a big |
| 778s | turtle fest and and i ended up losing |
| 781s | the battle there but the other three |
| 782s | went by pretty quick so uh we'll see how |
| 784s | it goes honestly yeah yeah uh so |
| 789s | so if we're ready to get started yeah |
| 791s | let's do it we can search for a game and |
| 792s | uh gets get the show on the road here |
| 794s | let's do it elliott and again in chat if |
| 796s | you see something you'd like to cheer |
| 797s | him on tell him he's what he's doing |
| 799s | wrong let ch let just toss in chat he |
| 801s | might not be reading chat as he's |
| 802s | playing but i can definitely |
| 804s | say them to him i'll i'll relay your |
| 806s | messages |
| 807s | please not trash i'm talking i'm too |
| 809s | hard pc gaming is 100 okay please let me |
| 812s | know if i'm idling too much or missing |
| 815s | out on anything uh definitely would |
| 817s | appreciate the tips and stuff because |
| 819s | again we like i'm not a pro player we're |
| 821s | community managers there are great |
| 823s | amazing players on our team |
| 825s | a balanced team for example very good |
| 828s | skilled players i'm just here that more |
| 830s | like you know i would like to think that |
| 831s | you know more of your uh |
| 834s | average game here uh that wants to just |
| 837s | play and uh get better at the game so i |
| 839s | mean who knows maybe by the end of the |
| 840s | season you'll be conquering |
| 842s | oh my goodness yeah there's also the |
| 843s | other anxiety of like misplacing my |
| 845s | farms and it's most likely going to |
| 847s | happen regardless so yeah yeah |
| 851s | so |
| 853s | yeah so yeah that's so let's see let's |
| 854s | get started waiting for your first match |
| 856s | and |
| 857s | if somehow you managed to match with |
| 860s | elliot |
| 861s | you probably shouldn't watch the stream |
| 862s | we're not we're not patrolling but |
| 864s | probably yeah like you know let's make |
| 866s | it a fair match if you if you |
| 868s | if you end up playing with me against me |
| 870s | you know little boots 10 i don't know if |
| 872s | you're on the stream but also |
| 873s | they're also doing their placements too |
| 875s | yeah whoever whoever you are little |
| 878s | boots 10 uh know that you're playing |
| 879s | against elliott out there even if you're |
| 881s | not watching the stream |
| 883s | all right i'm gonna go to english civ |
| 884s | for this first match up um i may switch |
| 887s | over to either the hre or um |
| 890s | delhi or the other sims that i also do |
| 892s | enjoy um yeah excited for accidental |
| 894s | lumber mill by the gold mine definitely |
| 896s | has happened with me in the game so i'm |
| 898s | gonna try to be good with my hotkey |
| 899s | placements and all but and i do see you |
| 901s | also have mongolian heights here you're |
| 903s | hopping into yep yep yeah |
| 906s | okay they're the bruce all right so with |
| 908s | them being the roost they're probably |
| 909s | gonna focus on trying to get their |
| 911s | hunting cabins and their uh farming |
| 913s | which gives me actually a window to |
| 915s | quickly get my eco going so uh we'll see |
| 918s | how it goes though against this but here |
| 920s | we go |
| 922s | all right good luck elliot i will be |
| 924s | cheering you on along with chat uh yep |
| 927s | as chad says crush him |
| 930s | crush crush them yeah i'll try you know |
| 932s | there's no promises you know like i i |
| 934s | can't guarantee that i'm gonna i'm gonna |
| 936s | get to where i need to get to but you |
| 937s | know we'll try right like that's the |
| 939s | main thing with this right so exactly |
| 942s | yeah |
| 943s | now if i what i like to do |
| 945s | i would definitely be plastic but |
| 948s | what i like to do is i do six villagers |
| 950s | on food to begin with and i get going on |
| 952s | my gold and this way i can only this way |
| 955s | i can just commit two villagers um over |
| 957s | to gold and by the time that i have |
| 959s | enough food um i can actually then um |
| 962s | i could then actually uh |
| 964s | age up at a relatively quick time here |
| 966s | we've got a hashtag get on the deer for |
| 968s | you elliot |
| 969s | can the deer yeah i should i i don't |
| 972s | take advantage of the deer i don't have |
| 974s | any deer right being beside me anyways |
| 976s | so actually kind of |
| 977s | doesn't work out for me here but |
| 979s | no like i said |
| 981s | but what i do here is get as much cheap |
| 983s | as i can around me and then that way i |
| 985s | can uh figure out what to do here |
| 990s | but again i'm not saying my build order |
| 991s | is perfect so please let me know if it's |
| 993s | uh not great here i learned macro by |
| 996s | watching elliott yes uh |
| 998s | here again i am not i'm going to put |
| 1000s | full caviar here i am not |
| 1002s | i'm by no means the expert on build |
| 1005s | orders and whatnot there are plenty of |
| 1007s | folks uh some of our content creators |
| 1009s | like ozzy drongos stuff that i have done |
| 1010s | stuff like that and i would take a look |
| 1012s | at them for inspiration and the correct |
| 1014s | way to uh make sure that but also the |
| 1016s | reason why i like doing lumber a lot is |
| 1017s | that that way i can also start spamming |
| 1019s | long bows pretty early on |
| 1021s | and what i'm going to try to do here is |
| 1022s | put some pressure on early on |
| 1024s | and then from there i'm hoping that |
| 1027s | that will then create enough a window |
| 1030s | for me to get my uh get get going a |
| 1032s | little ahead of time uh against my |
| 1034s | opponent here so again we'll see if this |
| 1036s | works |
| 1037s | uh i'm gonna keep dropping sheep off as |
| 1039s | much as i can |
| 1041s | don't worry if he goes for water it's an |
| 1042s | instant loss i mean yeah i mean at least |
| 1044s | the good news with this is there's a few |
| 1045s | chokeholds here so uh if they decide to |
| 1048s | either block me out for stuff that gives |
| 1049s | actually more time to get going um i'll |
| 1052s | try to do pretty much a you know a |
| 1054s | triple whammy of um longbow men siege |
| 1057s | and knights as much as possible um so |
| 1060s | you see here i did switch over to get |
| 1061s | more villagers onto food asap um i've |
| 1064s | got three villagers on wood right now |
| 1066s | and i'm gonna keep trying to get as much |
| 1067s | sheep as i can so that oh there's and |
| 1070s | there we go there's my opponent also |
| 1072s | uh doing things on this end so he is |
| 1075s | trying to steal a bunch of sheep from me |
| 1076s | which means i should actually go rush |
| 1078s | over to him right now uh rush over to |
| 1081s | his side of the map and see if i can |
| 1083s | steal some more sheep |
| 1087s | little boots is bc smurf account oh my |
| 1089s | god i |
| 1090s | would be terrified |
| 1092s | also not shocking if that was the case i |
| 1094s | i hope |
| 1095s | i hope it's not you know someone that we |
| 1097s | know in the community because uh |
| 1099s | yeah i'm uh you don't want to get |
| 1100s | destroyed |
| 1101s | yeah i don't get like you know i like |
| 1103s | fair match but you see what you see what |
| 1104s | i'm talking about here like he hasn't |
| 1106s | explored this part of the map yet so i |
| 1107s | can steal his sheep so i can i'm going |
| 1109s | to try to do that before i go back to my |
| 1111s | base here |
| 1114s | and then with that like i said we can |
| 1115s | start prepping them off and i'm going to |
| 1118s | age up now already |
| 1132s | yeah this is not going well for me guys |
| 1134s | if that's the case |
| 1145s | yeah this way i've got a wood being |
| 1147s | refilled again because i pulled them off |
| 1148s | by wood to get the |
| 1150s | get the landmark going uh but what the |
| 1153s | hope with that is that then i can |
| 1155s | actually okay there's another relic here |
| 1157s | that's actually good to know that's good |
| 1158s | knowledge let's actually go back to our |
| 1159s | base here i'm gonna |
| 1160s | i'm gonna finish exploring this part of |
| 1161s | the map and then go back to our base |
| 1162s | here |
| 1164s | uh i have a general idea they're |
| 1165s | probably gonna be over here so |
| 1167s | i'm gonna try to send some |
| 1169s | longbowmen that way once that happens |
| 1172s | just see what you happen to find |
| 1174s | yeah i mean i'm pretty confident they're |
| 1175s | gonna be in that area |
| 1178s | we'll put some pressure on that side |
| 1183s | yeah i'm not too worried about trying to |
| 1184s | figure out what they're going to do |
| 1185s | early on i know early on they're going |
| 1186s | to be using scouts and pumping out |
| 1188s | scouts to hunt wildlife |
| 1190s | but that again gives me the window to be |
| 1192s | able to then uh take some action early |
| 1194s | action on to |
| 1196s | put some pressure on like i said to them |
| 1197s | and then hopefully with that um |
| 1202s | transition over to |
| 1203s | um |
| 1209s | yeah |
| 1210s | [Music] |
| 1212s | yep so i'm able to already pop out three |
| 1214s | longbow men see so i already see two |
| 1216s | scouts on the map at the very least |
| 1233s | okay i mean if he wants to fight i'm |
| 1234s | okay with that my longbowmen will take |
| 1236s | on his scout from chat they're saying to |
| 1238s | kill some deer with your scout to deny |
| 1239s | bounty as well |
| 1240s | oh that's true i guess i could have done |
| 1242s | that but oh yeah look at all the deer he |
| 1244s | did yeah like i said i'm also trying to |
| 1246s | get better at the game i'm gonna be |
| 1247s | quite honest like i'm also |
| 1249s | not amazing at the game but like i said |
| 1251s | i've already killed his scout there um |
| 1253s | we're going to drop off these sheep here |
| 1254s | so my villagers can continue to take |
| 1256s | advantage of that |
| 1257s | um and then we'll keep exploring but |
| 1258s | basically we're going to keep putting |
| 1259s | pressure on are also getting pretty |
| 1261s | close to pop cap |
| 1263s | there's a good eye there thank you chad |
| 1268s | i'm also out of wood right now |
| 1271s | oh and see i also stopped pumping up |
| 1273s | villagers so that's something that i |
| 1274s | gotta keep an eye on make |
| 1282s | so let's see if we could find them soon |
| 1283s | i'm not worried about that uh my |
| 1285s | villagers and stuff are still going to |
| 1286s | queue up um this house is done though |
| 1296s | okay i know i took some damage there but |
| 1298s | this actually means now i can start |
| 1299s | putting pressure another way |
| 1303s | yeah i mean even him just seeing you |
| 1304s | coming at him and like finding him out |
| 1306s | that changes the game pretty |
| 1307s | dramatically |
| 1308s | just yeah i mean we'll see we'll see |
| 1309s | what kind of pressure like he did age up |
| 1311s | about what 45 seconds after me so yeah |
| 1314s | it's not like he's that far behind |
| 1315s | either on his end um |
| 1324s | but yeah we'll continue to put pressure |
| 1326s | on and |
| 1327s | see where it goes |
| 1334s | oh he's trying he's |
| 1336s | he's trying sorry little villager |
| 1339s | i found your hole |
| 1341s | now i'm wondering because he knows i'm |
| 1343s | there i might have to just actually go |
| 1345s | completely around |
| 1349s | oh hello |
| 1362s | that is actually an interesting spot to |
| 1364s | toss the wall as well |
| 1366s | well i think it was kind of smart for |
| 1368s | him i think because like he kind of |
| 1369s | knows that |
| 1371s | i'm gonna try to go around here i don't |
| 1372s | know if that's doable or not |
| 1376s | chad's wondering if you might have an uh |
| 1378s | second tc somewhere over there |
| 1380s | i wonder if i do or he does |
| 1383s | uh if he does |
| 1385s | oh look he's discovered my okay that's |
| 1387s | fine |
| 1388s | that's fine i'm going to put pressure to |
| 1389s | the side so |
| 1390s | and i've popped myself but we got a |
| 1392s | house |
| 1394s | let's put some more villagers on to wood |
| 1396s | here so i can keep pumping out villagers |
| 1398s | i'm also going to see if i can start |
| 1405s | so he's he's obviously reacting here um |
| 1407s | he's got villages here building an |
| 1409s | outpost so i'm gonna just get a couple |
| 1410s | villagers killed kill a couple here |
| 1412s | before we |
| 1413s | um |
| 1414s | before yeah and that's okay i've killed |
| 1416s | three villagers there and we're gonna |
| 1418s | back off actually i'm okay with this so |
| 1420s | i put some pressure on him already i'm |
| 1422s | gonna just back off here a little bit |
| 1425s | and see if i can sneak around here and |
| 1426s | do some more annoyances here |
| 1428s | on his end so |
| 1436s | stop idling |
| 1456s | i might have to see if there's another |
| 1457s | way to put some more pressure on him |
| 1460s | for now |
| 1468s | another important thing is to make sure |
| 1470s | villagers are constantly pumping out |
| 1482s | okay |
| 1487s | i've killed three more villagers there |
| 1490s | excellent pressure |
| 1493s | oh that's |
| 1495s | interesting oh i did not see this |
| 1497s | but he's also pretty fresh |
| 1503s | good counter attack good move on his |
| 1505s | part to do that actually |
| 1507s | so while i'm putting pressure on him |
| 1508s | he's also taking pressure |
| 1515s | [Music] |
| 1518s | lost a few villagers there but i think |
| 1520s | i'm okay you got that up and |
| 1522s | hopefully that helps out there |
| 1524s | off they go |
| 1568s | someone says make a new lumber camp when |
| 1569s | you can and also there's they're also |
| 1571s | saying the wall that the other player |
| 1573s | made there is helping you micro somewhat |
| 1575s | which is ironic |
| 1577s | oops i did not |
| 1578s | oh i looked up no i failed on that part |
| 1582s | yeah and chat uh with the with the |
| 1584s | backseat uh backseating in here |
| 1585s | definitely keep it coming uh we are all |
| 1588s | for that tell elliot what he should be |
| 1589s | doing help him out uh |
| 1591s | yeah cheer him on even whatever you want |
| 1592s | we're just gonna see how he |
| 1594s | how his placement goes win or lose |
| 1601s | okay i think i'm gonna reset from |
| 1602s | harassing at this point omega in chat am |
| 1605s | i bad for rooting for little boots |
| 1608s | i'm gonna go against guys win or lose |
| 1610s | this is how it's going it's okay like |
| 1612s | that's the purpose of this is to have |
| 1614s | fun while playing and comment on my |
| 1616s | skills or lack of it and i'm okay with |
| 1617s | that and that's part of the rank seasons |
| 1619s | as well it's like your skills are what |
| 1621s | they are uh for any of you playing this |
| 1623s | as you play you learn you get better and |
| 1625s | you'll see your season rank improve |
| 1626s | hopefully |
| 1627s | even |
| 1628s | during the season but also between |
| 1629s | seasons and future ones as well |
| 1638s | yeah so one thing i did do is fail to |
| 1641s | see him come around there but now i've |
| 1642s | got a good eye here with the |
| 1644s | outpost um i did lose some bills here so |
| 1647s | good on him to getting a counter attack |
| 1649s | back on me your chat's asking where your |
| 1651s | farms are you are the english |
| 1653s | that's true that is true but you know |
| 1655s | just you know i was trying to put some |
| 1657s | pressure on here |
| 1662s | there's some bad placements there so |
| 1664s | please no judging oh he's walled me off |
| 1666s | there smart on him |
| 1668s | but hey hello villagers hello little |
| 1670s | villagers |
| 1673s | goodbye villagers |
| 1678s | it's like hey you you did wall me off |
| 1680s | but you also put your villagers kind of |
| 1681s | close by in harm's way |
| 1720s | going to switch over to farms |
| 1725s | oh that outpost is in a bad spot oh man |
| 1736s | yes sir |
| 1748s | i wonder if i can put pressure on this |
| 1750s | side yes i don't know if i'm going to be |
| 1752s | able to he might have hold me off |
| 1757s | oh he's got a hunting camera |
| 1764s | nope that's not good he is |
| 1767s | a higher age than me yeah |
| 1770s | okay i'm gonna back off at this point |
| 1772s | let's back off y'all |
| 1775s | uh and you are pop capped as well right |
| 1777s | now |
| 1785s | so what's your immediate focus right now |
| 1786s | uh now that he's now i think it's to get |
| 1788s | my economy yeah yeah getting my age up |
| 1791s | and also just getting ready for probably |
| 1792s | what's gonna be a counter attack on his |
| 1794s | end yeah |
| 1796s | also a little |
| 1797s | short on what i should get the |
| 1798s | blacksmith too |
| 1805s | i need wood badly yeah i put 13 |
| 1807s | villagers on wood but you're right i |
| 1809s | should probably put a lumber camp a |
| 1810s | little closer |
| 1814s | just back off here |
| 1817s | i should i should have done a closer |
| 1818s | lumber cam i know someone called that |
| 1820s | out a few minutes ago |
| 1821s | five minutes ago in the game |
| 1823s | yeah saying |
| 1824s | yeah |
| 1825s | yeah okay |
| 1826s | we're gonna keep going because he is |
| 1828s | like i said he has aged up a little bit |
| 1830s | and he's gonna put some pressure on you |
| 1831s | i think pretty soon yeah we're gonna put |
| 1832s | some pressure back on |
| 1839s | yep and then uh yeah |
| 1843s | so yeah again key thing keep villagers |
| 1845s | going um and |
| 1847s | for now i'm gonna get longbowmen |
| 1848s | outgoing but uh i'm gonna have to switch |
| 1851s | eventually why don't you would badly use |
| 1852s | because you need more military buildings |
| 1854s | very much yeah i think so as well i've |
| 1856s | got two right now which is not gonna be |
| 1857s | enough i will need to switch over to |
| 1858s | spears |
| 1861s | so let's start actually getting that |
| 1862s | going now |
| 1889s | at least there |
| 1891s | some pressure there |
| 1893s | now he has to go to the right here or to |
| 1895s | the left which also means i should |
| 1896s | probably get an outpost |
| 1898s | so i just have an idea |
| 1919s | don't yes |
| 1928s | [Applause] |
| 1930s | every chance |
| 1943s | shhh |
| 1954s | yeah that is a good point |
| 1956s | silver two yeah i'm guessing silver two |
| 1959s | as well silver one maybe if i |
| 1967s | and like i said i'm okay wherever i end |
| 1969s | up placing together exactly it's just a |
| 1971s | start we've got room to grow |
| 1973s | a long road ahead to conquer here |
| 1979s | let's see what's going on with him |
| 1981s | i do feel like he is going to be massing |
| 1983s | um |
| 1984s | knights based on the early prediction of |
| 1986s | what i saw what's what's my person doing |
| 1988s | i want to get an |
| 1994s | [Music] |
| 2003s | some of these onto stone |
| 2005s | farms |
| 2010s | over there |
| 2012s | okay let's keep getting uh got tons of |
| 2014s | villagers on there and i could probably |
| 2016s | upgrade my wood |
| 2018s | there |
| 2019s | let's continue to upgrade our |
| 2022s | that and yeah |
| 2027s | [Music] |
| 2029s | so he's already got three relics not a |
| 2031s | good sign here so i wonder if he's taken |
| 2033s | he's taking one close to me he doesn't |
| 2034s | have that one yet which means i should |
| 2036s | try to at least get one |
| 2038s | if not he has a really good early gold |
| 2041s | advantage on me which is not good |
| 2054s | [Music] |
| 2057s | building a knob |
| 2074s | hey i'll post almost done here so i have |
| 2076s | an eye at least on i can keep kind of an |
| 2077s | eye on both sides so i'm not gonna get |
| 2079s | surprise attack at least i'll know if |
| 2081s | he's coming |
| 2082s | um |
| 2086s | yeah yeah let's get one more house here |
| 2087s | and there |
| 2101s | i saw in chat earlier someone said one |
| 2102s | of the reasons you need wood badly is |
| 2104s | because you need so much more from |
| 2104s | military buildings |
| 2106s | so yeah definitely see your wood |
| 2108s | disappearing there pretty quickly |
| 2115s | i don't think he's gone anywhere else |
| 2119s | at the same time i don't really want to |
| 2120s | he's had a lead on me and he's got all |
| 2122s | this so i'm actually gonna go over here |
| 2123s | and make sure he doesn't take this last |
| 2125s | relic because he's taking the one close |
| 2126s | to me here |
| 2138s | okay establish one here |
| 2140s | let's get our gold mine going |
| 2144s | yeah i've got uh |
| 2146s | siege so that we can uh try to make sure |
| 2148s | that i don't get |
| 2151s | destroyed on the siege right here |
| 2155s | and i see that i'm gonna pop myself |
| 2156s | again quite shortly so let's get this |
| 2159s | done |
| 2160s | at that let's make sure this guy goes |
| 2162s | back |
| 2166s | like i said i think he's taking the last |
| 2168s | relic okay i'm just gonna double check |
| 2169s | but i'm pretty sure this one's gone |
| 2172s | yeah chat's all about closing the lead |
| 2174s | if you can c is your second town center |
| 2176s | if one doesn't have one yet fish are |
| 2178s | making second town center and white |
| 2179s | tower to make seas just a few options |
| 2182s | elliot |
| 2184s | veteran secret |
| 2200s | oh it's still there oh it's still there |
| 2202s | it's still there y'all i got two relics |
| 2206s | yes i've got two relics |
| 2210s | all hope is not lost |
| 2227s | don't |
| 2241s | nice take one a ton of farms to defend |
| 2243s | him yeah i think i'm going to um keep |
| 2245s | getting your farms going yeah that is |
| 2247s | the eventual |
| 2248s | hope and i've kept myself again |
| 2253s | it's always one of those things in the |
| 2254s | heat of the moment you get so excited |
| 2255s | then you're like wait a second some |
| 2257s | houses going here |
| 2259s | okay i see that |
| 2262s | attack here that's why we have that |
| 2264s | outpost |
| 2266s | let's go deal |
| 2276s | so chat why don't you let us know your |
| 2278s | predictions of how this game is going to |
| 2279s | go with what you see so far |
| 2282s | who are you deciding for here elliott or |
| 2284s | little boots |
| 2287s | obviously it's gotta be me |
| 2292s | oh he's got siege okay perfect so i am |
| 2294s | gonna build more |
| 2296s | uh |
| 2297s | spring alts to try to counter that |
| 2299s | oh my god villagers i don't know let's |
| 2302s | go come on over here |
| 2305s | so i'm gonna just |
| 2306s | drop a new word |
| 2323s | engines |
| 2352s | asking what your 1100 stone is for |
| 2357s | yeah probably gonna get a couple keeps |
| 2359s | up once i uh |
| 2361s | didn't start doing so um that's good |
| 2363s | call out though this is probably good |
| 2364s | [Music] |
| 2366s | someone else says in case your second tc |
| 2367s | gets burned down you have three more |
| 2368s | tries |
| 2370s | that's also that's also a good point |
| 2372s | awesome |
| 2374s | yeah very true |
| 2392s | where is he gonna come from that's |
| 2394s | that's gonna be my question |
| 2407s | oh there we go |
| 2414s | [Music] |
| 2430s | oh |
| 2443s | so maybe the right call that i was |
| 2444s | thinking of building a castle up here |
| 2457s | you got chat asking about walls |
| 2459s | any thoughts on that elliot |
| 2461s | uh |
| 2463s | i don't know if it's too lo might be too |
| 2464s | late for me somewhere else at this point |
| 2466s | he's already broken through the south |
| 2467s | end here like i i'm gonna see if i can |
| 2469s | flush him out |
| 2470s | right |
| 2471s | kind of at this point |
| 2473s | elliott is not in a rank yet he's |
| 2475s | completed four games prior to this |
| 2477s | stream uh so we've got four placements |
| 2478s | this is his fifth so we'll find out his |
| 2480s | rank |
| 2481s | as soon as this game comes to an end uh |
| 2484s | yep yeah |
| 2486s | and then we're gonna try to get in at |
| 2488s | least one more game depending on how |
| 2489s | long this thing runs uh |
| 2491s | so yeah we'll get to see where elliott |
| 2493s | lands probably shortly |
| 2496s | yep that is correct hopefully it's not |
| 2499s | anywhere too bad i'm just happy i got |
| 2501s | two relics here uh but i'm hopefully |
| 2503s | gonna be able to age up soon so i'm |
| 2505s | gonna start getting ready for that |
| 2507s | it looks like there's nothing here so |
| 2508s | i'm actually kind of safe here so let's |
| 2510s | move our troops back here i'm going to |
| 2512s | try to establish something over here |
| 2513s | though so i can at least keep an eye on |
| 2514s | what's going on |
| 2516s | let's see if i can pull villagers let's |
| 2518s | go you are happy you are expensive |
| 2526s | yeah i'm gonna have to like he's been |
| 2528s | idling a lot on his own so i'm a little |
| 2530s | worried that his department's gonna be |
| 2533s | pretty well established it's gonna just |
| 2535s | be a blob versus blob situation i think |
| 2538s | that makes sense |
| 2542s | elliot has won three of his four |
| 2543s | placements yeah |
| 2545s | he's doing pretty good i mean i'm pretty |
| 2546s | i'm pretty proud of that so far you know |
| 2548s | to be honest you know i'm pretty proud |
| 2549s | that i can get to that point and there |
| 2551s | we go see there's his army |
| 2560s | yep he's gonna go straight for my siege |
| 2566s | let's see if i can put some pepper over |
| 2568s | there |
| 2585s | [Applause] |
| 2590s | he's got me on the siege |
| 2593s | [Applause] |
| 2601s | whoa |
| 2602s | that doesn't seem |
| 2609s | oh wait i had spring lights oh my gosh |
| 2611s | this place y'all |
| 2631s | okay so good news is i got rid of the |
| 2633s | siege problem the question is |
| 2635s | whether i can successfully counter |
| 2637s | attack him |
| 2638s | um i don't think i have to be honest |
| 2640s | let's pull some villagers range i don't |
| 2641s | have enough military buildings to be up |
| 2642s | to |
| 2643s | pump out stuff |
| 2645s | it'd be super helpful to have |
| 2657s | i don't have more idle villagers which |
| 2658s | is good |
| 2660s | uh let's pull these folks here because |
| 2662s | they're essentially |
| 2663s | having nothing let's get an actual |
| 2666s | camp going |
| 2668s | yeah |
| 2672s | let's back off here he's got a bit of an |
| 2674s | army but i did push him off which is |
| 2675s | good |
| 2676s | [Music] |
| 2680s | okay we're gonna have more |
| 2682s | army capability here which is good |
| 2686s | what's going on here |
| 2688s | i put the lumber crate |
| 2694s | um i still also look into aging up which |
| 2697s | i don't think you can do yet because |
| 2698s | i've been short on gold which is not |
| 2700s | good |
| 2701s | i need way more |
| 2704s | yeah sell some food and go to four |
| 2707s | uh that is also true you have a lot of |
| 2709s | fish |
| 2710s | yeah i should probably build some market |
| 2712s | yeah again kevin you all i am not |
| 2714s | amazing |
| 2716s | trying so far yeah i've managed to push |
| 2719s | them off and put a little pressure early |
| 2720s | on but there we go now we can age up |
| 2722s | let's pull all the excess lumber folks |
| 2723s | here and let's get another keep going |
| 2726s | because we'll need the additional |
| 2727s | defense here i think to be honest |
| 2730s | and then we're gonna go back to getting |
| 2731s | lumber actually let's build this and |
| 2733s | then they're gonna build drop a lumber |
| 2735s | camp here i'm never gonna do that |
| 2738s | meanwhile let's keep getting villagers |
| 2739s | going i've got that i want to get a |
| 2741s | couple more seeds here so you can keep |
| 2743s | those out |
| 2745s | i think sprinkle's gonna be pretty |
| 2746s | helpful for me i'm not gonna lie |
| 2749s | um |
| 2751s | let's keep it long longbow spam here and |
| 2753s | spearman to help pack it up |
| 2755s | yeah and then we're aging up so that's |
| 2757s | good um |
| 2758s | yeah let's buy some gold here so let's |
| 2760s | sell some wood |
| 2762s | i'll sell some food sorry |
| 2768s | yeah tons of excess food here so let's |
| 2770s | just do what we can to drive the market |
| 2772s | down |
| 2773s | so he also cannot take advantage of it |
| 2775s | that's right |
| 2777s | we have prevented him on the food side |
| 2779s | does he have the farm starting gold now |
| 2780s | yet i'm not age four yet unfortunately |
| 2782s | i'm being a little slow but he's also a |
| 2783s | little slow too so |
| 2785s | i'm not sure what's going on his end or |
| 2786s | why he's so small like he should he had |
| 2788s | advantage so fast i'm not sure why he's |
| 2790s | taking so long let's let's let's see |
| 2792s | let's go poke and see |
| 2795s | what's going on here like i aged up |
| 2797s | before him that's the weird thing yeah |
| 2798s | that is actually weird what do you think |
| 2800s | what is he doing yeah |
| 2801s | he had a huge lead on me i wonder if you |
| 2803s | coming after him like the way you did |
| 2804s | just disrupted him enough that he lost |
| 2806s | focus |
| 2807s | maybe but like it should have been |
| 2808s | enough to be honest right like you know |
| 2810s | what i mean like yeah chad is also |
| 2811s | saying if you go four which you you did |
| 2814s | to get enclosure asap |
| 2817s | oh he's that's why he's built up a |
| 2819s | defense here to stop me from coming in |
| 2821s | so i'm gonna have to switch siege |
| 2823s | uh which is okay uh that's the beauty of |
| 2825s | our crabs |
| 2827s | yeah and let's get trep scoring |
| 2836s | but also now they're h4 let's get the |
| 2838s | gold upgrade that we're looking for and |
| 2840s | i'm going to get some more mills going |
| 2842s | uh pull some villagers |
| 2859s | okay so once i get some trebs i will put |
| 2861s | some more pressure but in the meantime |
| 2863s | let's keep building our |
| 2865s | stuff here so we want longbowmen |
| 2869s | for sure |
| 2870s | i don't have enough resources oh wait |
| 2872s | i've got so much food i mean i've |
| 2873s | already tanked the |
| 2875s | the raid |
| 2877s | a little bit great but this way i can at |
| 2879s | least make sure that i'm still the one |
| 2880s | taking advantage of it you know what i |
| 2881s | mean yeah that's all |
| 2883s | um also where is my monastery i've got |
| 2886s | the two relics here i probably want to |
| 2887s | see if i can get this upgrade |
| 2889s | so i can maybe sell some food |
| 2891s | a wood story and get that |
| 2894s | get that upgrade asap so i can at least |
| 2896s | keep producing resources this way all |
| 2898s | right we've got two trebs |
| 2906s | so i want to do is make sure that my arm |
| 2908s | is protected so |
| 2909s | or my siege is protected |
| 2912s | bombard that |
| 2923s | spirit |
| 2933s | [Music] |
| 2938s | already |
| 2944s | he's just watching me yeah he knows my |
| 2946s | spring older stuff |
| 2955s | that's right |
| 2956s | use my formations i am set up |
| 2983s | i think he's got a little advantage on |
| 2985s | my sprinkles though |
| 2987s | oh and i stopped pumping out units that |
| 2989s | was a mistake |
| 2999s | oh no it's not looking good y'all i |
| 3001s | stopped pumping out military units |
| 3004s | that that might have done it i don't |
| 3006s | know i've done it i had the resources |
| 3008s | good before that too yeah i know i uh |
| 3010s | that was a mistake that was actual |
| 3011s | critical mistake right there |
| 3016s | i don't know if i'll have yeah i don't |
| 3018s | know |
| 3020s | i mean the good news is i've got the |
| 3022s | castle at least so i've got a couple |
| 3023s | castles |
| 3025s | yeah up but it's also it might be it's |
| 3027s | hard to come back from though a little |
| 3028s | bit yeah that was a mistake on my end to |
| 3030s | be honest |
| 3032s | yeah |
| 3034s | i'm gonna have to protect my sprinkles |
| 3035s | too um |
| 3037s | yeah |
| 3038s | dang i had the right momentum here yeah |
| 3040s | you did |
| 3043s | and he's yeah they're coming my left |
| 3045s | here but i do have my castle here to |
| 3047s | help protect with that so i'm not too |
| 3048s | too worried on that side |
| 3050s | um but i didn't make that mistake that |
| 3052s | was a critical mistake y'all |
| 3058s | so i'm just going to keep an eye there |
| 3059s | make sure that they don't get raided |
| 3061s | here |
| 3081s | he's got his forces here too so that's |
| 3083s | okay he's |
| 3084s | oh wait i had a bunch of force here what |
| 3086s | i completely forgot about this |
| 3100s | [Applause] |
| 3108s | okay this is fine he's distracted and |
| 3109s | he's giving me time to build up some |
| 3111s | stuff here |
| 3112s | i'm okay with doing honestly |
| 3118s | it's okay take advantage of the |
| 3120s | opportunity here it's too slow |
| 3122s | all right let's pull some of these folks |
| 3124s | here |
| 3140s | doesn't matter he's got a big force |
| 3141s | right here so i know that |
| 3145s | i need stones |
| 3169s | feel like he's throwing away units when |
| 3171s | he really shouldn't be like he had me |
| 3173s | actually |
| 3174s | he had advantage on me he kind of just |
| 3177s | let me |
| 3178s | push him off he's still h3 actually so i |
| 3180s | wonder if i can |
| 3182s | yeah i'm actually surprised he's still |
| 3183s | h3 |
| 3186s | but ready to go i mean it makes sense i |
| 3188s | guess |
| 3189s | i've got gold going on a regular rate |
| 3191s | from my |
| 3192s | multiple mills here um |
| 3195s | i almost want to see if i can oh i've |
| 3197s | got so many farm here let's let's just |
| 3199s | build a wall here let's let's let's |
| 3200s | protect our little hole here we're gonna |
| 3203s | start establishing |
| 3214s | that's good call out wait from the |
| 3215s | blacksmith |
| 3217s | i mean it's spelled and locksmith but |
| 3219s | i'm pretty sure |
| 3226s | i feel like this is i don't i don't know |
| 3227s | what he's trying here this seems like a |
| 3229s | very |
| 3231s | part of me wonders if like after when |
| 3233s | you stop making those units if he had a |
| 3234s | chance he could have taken |
| 3238s | my first priority here is to make sure i |
| 3239s | don't lose my keep here yeah let's get |
| 3241s | rid of these rams |
| 3243s | and then once we're done with that then |
| 3245s | let me focus on that |
| 3246s | let's make sure i'm keep pumping on |
| 3248s | units |
| 3249s | too doing |
| 3251s | okay the rams are done let's go deal |
| 3253s | with the actual spring holes now |
| 3279s | oh |
| 3283s | [Applause] |
| 3294s | i've pushed them off |
| 3296s | so what i should probably do is put |
| 3297s | additional pressure on top |
| 3300s | oops |
| 3307s | [Music] |
| 3309s | oh hey there hey these guys are just |
| 3311s | doing the deer thing on there |
| 3314s | now you're going dear elliot |
| 3316s | yes now i'm going dear y'all |
| 3322s | okay we do need some trebuchets though |
| 3324s | unfortunately uh not unfortunately we |
| 3325s | need some traps here because they've got |
| 3327s | that big keep in my way although i could |
| 3330s | try to go around a lot of food pumping |
| 3332s | up right now eh |
| 3333s | yep yep i can sell more food it's such a |
| 3335s | low it's gonna be quite a low rate but |
| 3337s | yeah seven thousand |
| 3338s | i mean i've got infinite generating food |
| 3340s | at this point right so you gotta take |
| 3342s | advantage of that so with that i can do |
| 3343s | that um |
| 3345s | then i could build some more trebs |
| 3349s | um i'm gonna get the spring old upgrade |
| 3350s | too because i've got numbers i'm gonna |
| 3352s | keep pumping sprinkles |
| 3354s | all right the question now is how i'm |
| 3356s | gonna take advantage of this |
| 3359s | he still hasn't aged up |
| 3361s | they make crossbowmen in cavs yeah i |
| 3362s | should switch over to crossbowmen but |
| 3364s | the longbowmen's also got long range and |
| 3365s | they're really cheap which is why i like |
| 3367s | pumping them out but that is probably a |
| 3369s | good callout that i could probably |
| 3370s | switch over um so let's do that let's |
| 3372s | keep pumping up spear though because |
| 3373s | those are good cannon fodder |
| 3387s | but that is a concern for oh he's just |
| 3389s | hit him okay |
| 3391s | okay let's see if we can put pressure |
| 3392s | now |
| 3394s | that does at least let you know that |
| 3396s | he's been holding some resources to hit |
| 3397s | that in time too so yeah but same time |
| 3400s | like it's it's not a good look on my end |
| 3402s | because it means |
| 3417s | already |
| 3431s | it's |
| 3445s | i'm |
| 3447s | that's right i'm going to take down your |
| 3449s | keep here |
| 3451s | preventing me from coming in |
| 3458s | actually what am i doing what am i doing |
| 3460s | i got access to bombards what am i doing |
| 3465s | too much backseat four times no too much |
| 3467s | backseats fine we talked about this |
| 3468s | y'all like we want the taxi keep the |
| 3470s | bags |
| 3471s | it only helps i think right now |
| 3475s | i'm not amazing at the game and that's |
| 3476s | okay and we want like part of the |
| 3478s | journey here is to have you guys play |
| 3479s | and be part of it right so yeah um so |
| 3482s | but you know i will admit this is not |
| 3484s | going this is going much slower than i |
| 3485s | had planned |
| 3487s | i thought the really harassed is good he |
| 3488s | did he shed off my early harass really |
| 3490s | well and uh kudos to him on that |
| 3493s | um so yeah but what i'm doing here is |
| 3495s | being disciplined and making sure that |
| 3497s | our our troops here don't uh |
| 3499s | don't uh fall victim to anything by |
| 3501s | accident the last time i got caught in |
| 3503s | the range of the key |
| 3505s | he is repairing at a good rate dang it |
| 3508s | i'm gonna build |
| 3509s | i gotta build more traps and stuff oh |
| 3511s | i've run into the problem where i'm pop |
| 3512s | cap |
| 3514s | villagers you've done your duty i |
| 3516s | appreciate it thanks for all your hard |
| 3518s | work |
| 3522s | isn't that what everyone does |
| 3523s | i can't be the only one |
| 3531s | got a few bits of feedback you're not |
| 3533s | floating out of gold for bombards uh |
| 3535s | remember the english tower |
| 3537s | towers and |
| 3539s | yeah four towers that's a good one |
| 3543s | i've got my bombards here now but |
| 3544s | they're going to put some backup onto |
| 3546s | here and give me that stupid keep |
| 3548s | i'm going to keep pumping out units |
| 3549s | though so let's oh we should upgrade our |
| 3553s | upgrade our |
| 3554s | where where did that go |
| 3564s | okay let's keep getting units going so |
| 3566s | that i will have an infinite stream |
| 3568s | coming in |
| 3575s | thank you for your service |
| 3595s | oh he's got lots of sprinkles |
| 3604s | oh my god that that keep is not going to |
| 3606s | die |
| 3612s | i don't need more |
| 3627s | oh this is now i'm annoyed |
| 3631s | to be frank i'm quite annoyed at this |
| 3633s | point |
| 3636s | the stupid keep is stopping me from |
| 3643s | stopping me from pushing in to my plan |
| 3646s | which is you know what kudos to my |
| 3647s | opponent yeah he's doing the right |
| 3649s | things |
| 3650s | uh i'm just annoyed on this end because |
| 3651s | i really want this game to end because |
| 3654s | i want to know where i place and it's uh |
| 3657s | it seems to be going on a loop that |
| 3658s | we're just never going to end |
| 3660s | uh i think i desperate in these stones |
| 3662s | i'm going to actually pivot these guys |
| 3663s | over to stone even though wood is |
| 3665s | hurting |
| 3666s | um actually let's make sure we don't |
| 3668s | commit everybody |
| 3672s | military at this point |
| 3674s | now elliot what if this keeps going back |
| 3675s | and forth forever and turns into like a |
| 3676s | 24-hour game i don't know i don't think |
| 3679s | the game can go that far do you get all |
| 3681s | the blacksmith tech actually that is a |
| 3682s | good caller i did not so let's get the |
| 3684s | armor there |
| 3685s | um it is hurting my gold though just a |
| 3688s | little bit yeah |
| 3689s | okay two bombards hopefully this can |
| 3692s | we can do the thing though |
| 3696s | have chat |
| 3707s | [Music] |
| 3712s | oh he's got stupid sprinkles |
| 3727s | oh my god yep |
| 3730s | sprinkle sprinkles |
| 3734s | just destroying them |
| 3743s | oh which spring old's going to |
| 3745s | hit first |
| 3746s | both |
| 3747s | wow that was |
| 3752s | somewhat of a draw there |
| 3760s | let's try that again |
| 3767s | [Music] |
| 3769s | but uh if this doesn't work i might try |
| 3771s | to go through the north to be honest i'm |
| 3773s | kind of the point where |
| 3774s | this is uh |
| 3784s | oh my goodness this is good |
| 3785s | [Applause] |
| 3789s | all right well that bombards lost let's |
| 3791s | just leave it be |
| 3792s | it's okay |
| 3796s | and he's got the straw ski that is a |
| 3798s | good counter especially if he can |
| 3801s | take advantage of the fact that |
| 3809s | [Applause] |
| 3811s | yeah that was a quick round that came |
| 3812s | out of nowhere there |
| 3825s | oh i've lost over 100 pop cap that is |
| 3827s | not good |
| 3830s | let's go with this trellis tree first |
| 3831s | because the longer they sit and do |
| 3833s | damage the more they do so the faster we |
| 3835s | get them it's actually better for us |
| 3837s | okay and we're actually good |
| 3847s | they actually back up |
| 3848s | this is very much a stalemate |
| 3862s | all right guys we're gonna keep a force |
| 3864s | here and i'm actually gonna see if i can |
| 3865s | do what you guys suggested which is to |
| 3868s | go around |
| 3869s | maybe we can try to do something once i |
| 3871s | get my army back up |
| 3872s | we're going to try to do something a |
| 3873s | little different here because this is |
| 3875s | clearly not working |
| 3878s | actually i'm also going to switch over |
| 3879s | to man in arms too because i've got the |
| 3881s | gold output |
| 3882s | but not the uh |
| 3885s | not the other stuff that i'm looking for |
| 3886s | right now |
| 3888s | i'm running out of wood so i'm going to |
| 3889s | have to switch over anyways |
| 3892s | but what i'm also going to do is just |
| 3893s | maybe build another castle so i've got a |
| 3895s | little bit more protection |
| 3902s | what i'm going to do is i'm going to |
| 3903s | send two crossbowmen to probe this area |
| 3905s | here and see if there's anything because |
| 3906s | then he'll only see two units |
| 3908s | right |
| 3910s | yeah |
| 3911s | all right um yeah i'm uh kind of at a |
| 3913s | point where this is like going down yeah |
| 3916s | this is really a little bit back and |
| 3917s | forth here i don't even have enough wood |
| 3919s | to build the university uh let's buy |
| 3921s | some wood here |
| 3926s | i mean it doesn't matter where i really |
| 3927s | place at this point |
| 3929s | i'm university overlooking a cliff right |
| 3931s | it seems like a seems like the right |
| 3932s | idea right oh no two-hour game right |
| 3934s | here yeah it's going on ever |
| 3937s | he's got a gold mine that he's not |
| 3939s | touching he does have a sacred site |
| 3940s | though that is a good point i should |
| 3942s | probably stop that that is not a good so |
| 3944s | let's put some pressure on him |
| 3946s | i'm gonna leave some units here so that |
| 3948s | we don't just embed in that front |
| 3961s | we're gonna have some protection here |
| 3962s | but i'm gonna keep pumping out units |
| 3964s | here |
| 3965s | um |
| 3967s | which is good here is a good switch to |
| 3968s | the cross moment where we'll call that |
| 3970s | out um |
| 3971s | good call there because we can now take |
| 3973s | advantage of gold doubloons oh my god we |
| 3975s | got a massive gold mine here |
| 3979s | especially since i'm gonna have to |
| 3980s | pretty much just buy wood at this point |
| 3982s | i think yeah |
| 3983s | fifteen thousand food you got all the |
| 3985s | food you ever need |
| 3987s | right yeah so the food's not the concern |
| 3989s | here |
| 3990s | uh but let's keep let's keep making sure |
| 3992s | that he can't take advantage that |
| 4038s | he stopped my thing |
| 4048s | stop my thing here i neutralize this |
| 4051s | sacred site need a villager |
| 4053s | i'm too lazy i'm just gonna pull one |
| 4055s | from here |
| 4057s | [Applause] |
| 4061s | um |
| 4075s | [Music] |
| 4081s | oh what happened here i sent a crossbow |
| 4084s | in here oh they made it through |
| 4086s | okay |
| 4087s | so there is a whole huge there is a huge |
| 4088s | hole here guys i'm gonna |
| 4091s | see if i can uh do something about that |
| 4093s | actually |
| 4094s | once we get a bit of a force going let's |
| 4096s | get this castle down there first |
| 4103s | here |
| 4114s | never knew about that unless you just |
| 4116s | get more farmers and produce more gold |
| 4117s | so okay i mean that is not a bad cause |
| 4120s | maybe after this once they've completed |
| 4122s | it um i mean you're right i do what am i |
| 4124s | talking about i've got so much |
| 4126s | i've got so much um |
| 4128s | food i can afford to do that |
| 4130s | okay this is done so let's make |
| 4135s | i want to make sure that my front is |
| 4136s | protected |
| 4138s | but we're going to keep pumping out |
| 4139s | units |
| 4144s | yeah and you're right more gold is |
| 4146s | better because i can keep with my high |
| 4147s | cost units |
| 4149s | now the question is where is the closest |
| 4150s | market um i don't think i have one on my |
| 4153s | side |
| 4157s | okay he's got a bunch of units here |
| 4158s | though so he does know that i'm keeping |
| 4160s | an eye there that's fine |
| 4167s | let's go squish them |
| 4201s | that's right you're not getting any |
| 4203s | secret site now |
| 4207s | okay so we've got that we've got that |
| 4212s | all right y'all i'm gonna try to do what |
| 4215s | we were said so once i get the castles |
| 4216s | down i shouldn't start moving my |
| 4217s | bombards over there |
| 4224s | leave a little bit of force here |
| 4227s | or anything off that comes this way |
| 4234s | see if this is it this is the moment |
| 4235s | guys |
| 4236s | this is the moment where we can finally |
| 4239s | see if we can break this |
| 4241s | because he's got no so far for what i |
| 4243s | know he's got no keep here so we're |
| 4245s | gonna see if we can hit him just this |
| 4246s | way right here |
| 4248s | i need wood choppers how much okay yeah |
| 4250s | i've got |
| 4252s | like i i've pretty much wood chopped all |
| 4254s | my sides |
| 4255s | here |
| 4256s | uh no i guess that's no that's not true |
| 4258s | i thought |
| 4259s | oh no |
| 4261s | oh he he was away |
| 4266s | okay i think i'm gonna lose my mom i'm |
| 4267s | gonna see if i can put my bombards back |
| 4281s | if that would be enough to then put |
| 4283s | pressure on |
| 4284s | because i do have more i mean |
| 4288s | so he thought he can |
| 4290s | take advantage that momentary |
| 4292s | distraction here |
| 4302s | let's keep putting pressure |
| 4326s | what i'm gonna do after this is |
| 4327s | counter-attack my troops |
| 4340s | also i will say elliot this game takes a |
| 4342s | little while i think we might only just |
| 4344s | do this in one game today |
| 4346s | unfortunately yeah i i honestly thought |
| 4349s | y'all that this this game wouldn't take |
| 4350s | this long i'm gonna be quite honest here |
| 4352s | well it's a good thing you did your four |
| 4354s | placements before this so we'll see |
| 4355s | where you at least end up we'll see |
| 4356s | where i'll land at least yeah that's |
| 4358s | true yeah because originally for those |
| 4359s | watching we were considering doing at |
| 4361s | least two games we thought they'd be |
| 4362s | pretty quick this one is |
| 4364s | definitely approaching that one hour |
| 4366s | mark and as we usually have streamed |
| 4368s | around 4pm i think we're gonna just i |
| 4370s | don't think we have enough time to |
| 4370s | squeeze another one in no matter what |
| 4372s | yeah even if you just die or one right |
| 4374s | now earlier right now it'd still be a |
| 4376s | little tight |
| 4378s | yeah i agree here oh no one might see |
| 4381s | the application |
| 4382s | today's today's battle here oh no i've |
| 4385s | lost some troops you're going that way |
| 4386s | oops i thought i'd make them go that way |
| 4390s | [Music] |
| 4400s | [Applause] |
| 4404s | [Music] |
| 4411s | yes we did it |
| 4412s | we did it wow we did it |
| 4417s | wow congratulations elliot that was |
| 4420s | if there's an activity of a week of play |
| 4422s | oh i mean yeah i mean we'll like |
| 4424s | here's the thing with rank guys this is |
| 4426s | our first season there's going to be a |
| 4428s | lot of work that's gonna be done on it |
| 4430s | the whole team is monitoring i'm pretty |
| 4432s | sure the team is watching me play right |
| 4433s | now and probably face palming a lot be |
| 4435s | like oh this is the guy that's |
| 4436s | representing us on the stream here uh |
| 4439s | but let's take a look here |
| 4440s | oh whoa gold one |
| 4443s | wow elliot |
| 4444s | deserved that to be frank |
| 4446s | get enough to conquer you're making good |
| 4448s | progress |
| 4449s | i mean they play silver too which is |
| 4451s | good on them um you know it's definitely |
| 4453s | a hard fought you can see here i had to |
| 4455s | lead on them though the whole time so i |
| 4456s | i did age up quicker than you did um |
| 4458s | they had more relics to me and they had |
| 4460s | hold up a sacred site longer than i did |
| 4462s | i did deny it pretty |
| 4463s | what i thought was pretty early but i |
| 4465s | know the one in the south was they had |
| 4466s | for about five seven minutes so they did |
| 4467s | get some gold there um |
| 4470s | yeah but again because of the pressure |
| 4471s | we're able to put on and the fact that |
| 4473s | um the way like at least i like to do is |
| 4475s | just make sure i have enough military |
| 4476s | buildings constantly pumping out units |
| 4478s | and there's i know there's a couple |
| 4479s | times where i forgot to keep that but |
| 4481s | basically you can have them queued up |
| 4483s | and as soon as they die they'll pop out |
| 4485s | and keep going um and it's it's |
| 4486s | something that you can make sure that |
| 4488s | you're replenishing your units and keep |
| 4490s | going because as you saw i saw him do |
| 4491s | waves at least i kept having troops come |
| 4493s | out so |
| 4495s | yeah gold one that is great yeah that |
| 4498s | was like i said |
| 4499s | yeah i was able to put like you can see |
| 4501s | the scoria difference here too right |
| 4502s | like i was constantly putting pressure |
| 4503s | on uh eco he had a pretty good thing but |
| 4505s | i did have most of my tech done and |
| 4507s | definitely had more military being |
| 4508s | pumped up than he did exceed here 624 to |
| 4511s | his |
| 4512s | uh whatever he's got here so uh largest |
| 4515s | army 199 pop cap |
| 4518s | he did take down for my buildings which |
| 4522s | got on him um i could on them sorry but |
| 4525s | yeah eco-wise you can see with the food |
| 4526s | obviously we dominated there i'm |
| 4528s | surprised with the gold but i guess with |
| 4530s | it being the english i was able to just |
| 4531s | get that uh going you know it you know |
| 4533s | so i was able to make sure that uh my |
| 4536s | gold output was higher than them yeah |
| 4538s | yeah |
| 4538s | and definitely was a little sloppy with |
| 4540s | the ages yeah but definitely definitely |
| 4542s | came back from there yeah came back from |
| 4544s | there so and let's see even just |
| 4545s | villager hi yeah so honestly thank |
| 4548s | everybody for the feedback you know |
| 4549s | definitely had some good moments there |
| 4551s | where you guys um laura's army i don't |
| 4554s | know uh we'll |
| 4556s | we'll talk to the team about how they |
| 4557s | calculate stuff here but again thank |
| 4559s | everybody for coaching and helping me |
| 4561s | out back here uh we made it we got it |
| 4564s | done oh yeah |
| 4566s | and you are |
| 4567s | gold |
| 4568s | i think yeah i think should pop up right |
| 4570s | here yeah there we go one and look at |
| 4572s | those |
| 4573s | right |
| 4574s | yeah yeah |
| 4575s | as you rank up there's all the rewards |
| 4577s | for each oh wow are you also i'm very |
| 4579s | close to good and gold too here yeah |
| 4580s | you're really close three points away |
| 4583s | yeah so who hit gold |
| 4585s | uh so unfortunately we |
| 4587s | don't definitely don't have time yeah |
| 4589s | here probably not unfortunately so |
| 4591s | here's the thing my fourth game i played |
| 4593s | it actually ended in about seven eight |
| 4594s | minutes because i just rushed them early |
| 4596s | on and they didn't have a way to counter |
| 4598s | the initial wave because once i got the |
| 4600s | initial wave and took down a bunch of |
| 4601s | villagers i kept sending because at that |
| 4602s | point i knew that i had the advantage |
| 4604s | that i can just keep pumping out log |
| 4606s | movement while slowly getting my eco up |
| 4608s | to age up and then they |
| 4610s | they just said gg and ended the game |
| 4612s | right there so i thought the game would |
| 4614s | end a little sooner with the pressure |
| 4615s | but you know kudos to my opponent uh |
| 4617s | they shed off my early rush early on |
| 4620s | even though and they also did a good |
| 4622s | counter attack i think that we're pretty |
| 4624s | even on that villager exchange because |
| 4625s | they hit my uh wood line um i didn't |
| 4628s | have an outpost there in time i was able |
| 4630s | to push it off but you know |
| 4632s | had i not that would have been the early |
| 4634s | gg on my head |
| 4635s | yeah definitely a few moments i could |
| 4637s | have changed like had things to take a |
| 4638s | turn for the worst but you had them |
| 4640s | pretty good yeah |
| 4641s | yeah we were able to outlast the output |
| 4643s | um and that also goes to show that if |
| 4645s | you don't win an engagement early don't |
| 4647s | give up right it's it's still very |
| 4649s | winnable that you could still come back |
| 4651s | and uh get to that point i mean so |
| 4653s | definitely uh |
| 4655s | quit working for relic to become a |
| 4656s | full-time pro no i'm not a pro streamer |
| 4659s | but the good news is this is something |
| 4661s | of a series we're going to continue um |
| 4663s | uh like so this is only the first of |
| 4664s | many um and we're gonna keep going on |
| 4666s | this and i think uh it's not just gonna |
| 4668s | be me either we're probably gonna get |
| 4669s | some other folks on to do some road to |
| 4671s | rank as well because it'd be fun to see |
| 4672s | their journey as well and see where they |
| 4674s | go um especially when we get something |
| 4676s | more |
| 4677s | uh advanced players i'd say you know i |
| 4680s | feel like i have a decent grasp but you |
| 4681s | can see here i had tons of idle time i |
| 4683s | kept pop capping myself and uh i kept uh |
| 4689s | misplacing where my units were and stuff |
| 4690s | like that right so yeah it just was just |
| 4694s | going all over the place so i mean but |
| 4696s | honestly grant and team and |
| 4698s | viewers like thank you so much for no |
| 4700s | chat no grant road to rank that would be |
| 4702s | no i would be plastic for sure for sure |

| 4707s | know on the community side which is fine |
| 4709s | but we also have you know there are a |

| 4803s | some of those and we'll see how that |
| 4805s | goes uh |
| 4806s | on the odd chance those get through |
| 4807s | really quick we might be able to squeeze |
| 4809s | in a ranked or something but maybe yeah |
| 4811s | i'm gonna be there so yeah we need to |
| 4812s | switch gears and we can easily do so |
| 4814s | we'll see how it goes but yeah so we've |
| 4815s | got a bunch of different kind of streams |
| 4816s | coming on we also have our dev |
| 4818s | discussions uh those will be cycling |
| 4820s | through different craft focuses here |

| 4823s | we talk about people who were working on |
| 4824s | those teams we have maps and audio at |
| 4826s | one point coming which will be super |
| 4827s | exciting we previously had |

| 4872s | pull someone around |
| 4875s | yeah oh it's like live ranked coaching |
| 4878s | live on stream |
| 4879s | it's basically what happened today |
| 4881s | actually today was basically twitch chat |
| 4883s | plays age through elliott yeah yeah that |
| 4886s | was true and honestly thank you guys it |
| 4888s | wasn't it was thanks to you all that i |
| 4891s | was able to i think pull that victory |
| 4892s | because there's definitely moments where |
| 4893s | i was like oh no what do i do here like |
| 4895s | am i gonna like i'm kind of was like |
| 4897s | stuck don't know what i'm doing and |
| 4898s | definitely the call-outs definitely |
| 4900s | helped out there yeah a little worried |
| 4901s | the one time where you had the the units |
| 4903s | you just stopped they stopped making um |
| 4905s | but yeah that was |
| 4907s | they pushed had they pressed me there i |
| 4909s | would have been in trouble but i think |
| 4909s | because i had to keep the landmark keep |
| 4912s | there they kind of it kind of scared |
| 4913s | them and spooked them so they were able |
| 4914s | to push off yeah i think that could have |
| 4916s | been worse than it was so i think you |
| 4919s | worked out you got your your gold one |
| 4921s | and yeah we'll be back every friday |
