565s	if you want to take a look at the
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

4797s	week is going to be one of our quest
4799s	quashing which is where it's going
4801s	through the seasonal events taking on
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
4821s	from the relic and world edge side where
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

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
