63s	hello everyone uh welcome polytopians
67s	uh we are at the official polyopia
70s	Channel my name is Adam you might also
72s	know me from poly champs as G aul and um
77s	as also as mij tube and today uh I have
81s	two guests uh first one is uh someone
86s	you already know uh hi wnie
91s	hello there how you
92s	doing and my second guest uh you also
96s	know him but he hasn't been on um on the
99s	live stream yet I think uh hi maradon
103s	hello everybody yeah maradon was on the
107s	on um lyan video with uh with rats uh it
112s	was it was it was a good game I remember
115s	that okay so today we uh we met uh we we
121s	are meeting as uh as always to to review
124s	uh the highlights of the uh of the
127s	polium uh the games were played in in
131s	August um but before we start um I
136s	wanted to ask our guests about the
139s	Aquarian rework because uh there was a
141s	bit of a Twist uh in our stream so we'll
145s	start with the uh with the aquarium
148s	games even though it's an homage
151s	um live stream because uh in August when
155s	the rework was released we had a a
158s	quaring week and there were some some
161s	matches played during this this week so
164s	guys what are your feelings and opinions
166s	about the new aquarium uh share with
168s	with
170s	us maybe
172s	you you're more experienced maybe the
175s	most experienced one in this group I was
178s	definitely the most experienced during
179s	the beta play test I'm not sure by now
182s	because a lot of people have been
183s	getting their hands on aquarium um I
186s	know a lot of people were initially very
189s	upset about uh some of the changes I
193s	think I see fewer complaints these days
195s	and personally I actually quite like
198s	them I well I almost only play Aquarian
201s	at the moment because they just feel
204s	fresh they keep feeling fun to me and
208s	I'm getting them to work so I think
210s	definitely not as bad as some people are
211s	making them out to be in fact I think
213s	they're in a really really good spot not
216s	too strong not too weak just nice
218s	balanced
219s	stripe okay cool maradon have you had
224s	with W boy on this one I absolutely love
227s	the rework and I like seeing those new
231s	unit Concepts and how they worked out I
233s	think they had a whole another dimension
235s	to the gamep playay especially all the
238s	flooding tile mechanic
241s	they feel native on one hand and on the
244s	other hand there's something new and
247s	something players can experiment with I
249s	haven't played a whole lot of Aquarion
252s	because I'm still a simanti man and
254s	probably will stay forever um but yeah
258s	the bug is not letting you to change the
260s	tribe
261s	yes and also I think aquarium got a
264s	whole lot more unique um in comparison
267s	to what they were before I know aquarium
269s	was added at as the first special tribe
272s	but they didn't really feel special yeah
274s	I mean they had trid denion and those
275s	were cool but they had boats and all
278s	that kind of stuff and now we have all
280s	these unique units with unique abilities
283s	and it really feels like aquarum has
285s	become the special tribe it was always
287s	meant to be yeah I agree with the with
290s	those you know ships they were like kind
292s	of awkward and now with the with um
297s	puffers and uh Jellyfish sorry jish and
301s	uh and sharks they are and also with the
304s	the with the fact that they have the
307s	fins they are like real fish people so I
310s	I totally agree with
313s	you um okay uh so some a few
317s	organizational notes uh like I said uh
320s	first we will um review the two aquarium
324s	games uh from the aquarium week then
328s	omaji comes in and um after we finish uh
334s	as always there will be uh an
337s	opportunity to to ask our guests uh some
341s	some questions if you want to share
343s	share your um uh your replace you can do
347s	that and uh we will have uh like
351s	a Blog to to answer answer your
354s	questions maybe give you some tips uh on
357s	how to play or or give you uh um answers
361s	to some things that you are struggling
364s	uh struggling
366s	with Okie do so let's uh let's jump into
372s	the the
374s	games all right play
380s	music go ahead one yes
385s	it's um streaming is being a bit night
390s	yeah we can we can see everything so um
394s	oh yeah maybe uh sorry one more thing uh
398s	so this is a game
402s	between uh yeah I have no clue how to
405s	pronounce this
407s	quu okay correct theer wrong
410s	please and AIC yeah okay let's just call
415s	him glay for
417s	now gay yeah gay
420s	AO so we have a game between G and AO
424s	with G being in the bottom corner here
427s	and AO being in the top Corner mhm so at
432s	first um they're
435s	just expanding looking around trying to
438s	find some
439s	Villages um and I think here the first
441s	thing we have is um that Quay
444s	immediately starts opening with
446s	organization at this point why would he
448s	do that well I I think because he
450s	doesn't see any resources he can find
453s	with Z Warrior so he's getting
456s	organization just so that he can get um
459s	sight of any farms that might be there
461s	to help him find villages I don't think
463s	he actually has
464s	any um so we has to go a little bit
467s	further oh but purple Aquarion starts
470s	out right with a ruin next to their
471s	Capital that's pretty
473s	strong wait um let me quickly go damn it
477s	yeah yeah well we'll see it when we get
480s	back to purple because with the Aquarian
483s	if I'm not mistaken it's they always
486s	spawn with two fruits
488s	right yes I believe Aquarian always
491s	spawns with two fruits yeah here it we
494s	see AO going for the ruin before he goes
496s	to the Village um because well a rune
500s	can be really really Val valuable at the
502s	start and the second village is not as
505s	important right away so I think both
507s	players are doing really nice opening
510s	at the moment you guys any more comments
513s	on
514s	that um I would like to point out that
517s	in my opinion purple has a way better
519s	start here at least from what I can see
521s	about the resource distribution and he
524s	already sees a second village with the
525s	exact same resources plus he has the
527s	Rune so uh right when I first saw this
530s	game I thought oh wow how is the other
532s	one going to uh turn that around Let's
536s	uh quickly turn off the share truck we
538s	can turn it back on later in the game
540s	but yeah it's true purple does have a
543s	more dense spawn with everything
544s	together there however purple only has
547s	two Villages at the moment and pink is
549s	about to get their dirt so we might see
551s	something happening there ah no there's
554s	a the third one for purpal as
560s	well and we see pink here picking up
563s	fishing as well so they're really going
566s	for early economy with boat fishing and
568s	organization
571s	and will they get a ruin no an Explorer
574s	yeah they get an
575s	Explorer both choice I honestly would
578s	have uh gotten a a workshop right here
582s	especially with the Aquarion economy
584s	which is known for being the strongest
586s	that's yeah I I can see that as well
588s	especially he have this small village
591s	here in the South he could have made
592s	made a workshop there and got the
594s	Explorer later because I think as
596s	Aquarian you do still want to have a few
598s	explorers to get your uh your amphibians
600s	out quickly to catch those far away
602s	Villages before the opponent does
605s	so see um I love the addition of Aqua
610s	Farms something non-tactical I wanted to
613s	point out right here I absolutely love
616s	the fact they added those back they are
619s	indeed really really nice for aquarium
621s	and they give so much um they give so
623s	much population if you can get a good
625s	Naval
627s	Village so at the moment I think B is
629s	putting on some pressure but purple is
632s	starting to uh fight back let's go back
635s	turn a Shar [ __ ] back off again so that
639s	we have a a bit of a view of what they
641s	can actually see because purple here
643s	still does not know anything about um
646s	doesn't have any vision of the pink
650s	cities they go from early riding and
654s	waterways and pink also joins with water
656s	uh with writing
658s	[Music]
663s	so we see some uh well some expanding
665s	some early combat and back and
668s	forth which pink putting up a lot of
671s	pressure but purple purple does have
674s	that veteran swordsman which is a really
678s	really strong um unit this early in the
680s	game and they also get their first
681s	explorer mhm quite similar um situations
686s	so um the purple has has one Village in
691s	the in the North and the other uh Pink
694s	player has one in the in the west so
697s	very far from exactly not as close but
701s	would you look at this bad luck by
704s	purple they just missed um the
708s	lighthouse lighthouse in the corner yeah
710s	I also saw that it's always pain when
712s	the Explorer heads another Direction so
715s	it will take a lot of effort uh to get
717s	that one let's see if they can get there
720s	yeah and the veteran swordsman of course
722s	enters the fight and here we see the
725s	bounce that's of course that's a really
726s	good um tactic to do with Aquarian where
729s	they basically use their amphibian to
731s	attack and then bounce away towards
734s	villages to do both combat and
736s	exploration all at the same
738s	time so we're seeing some quick
740s	expansion and yes they find found their
743s	first light
746s	house we have 10 star now on this side
749s	and on the other side as well both sides
752s	are both players are sitting equally on
753s	economy by the way something interesting
756s	to point out I find it always
757s	interesting how similar those games go
760s	at a pro level and I mean yeah there's
764s	some back and forth right here but
765s	overall it's a pretty balanced game
767s	still I would say yeah both sides
770s	definitely are still in it look at the
772s	economy I think pink has fishing
774s	organization and
776s	riding I think purple has something
778s	similar they had I think
781s	organization uh riding and water RS if
784s	I'm not mistaken we'll check when we get
786s	back to them so it looks like pink is
788s	also going to explore the ruin in the
791s	back what did purple have yeah waterways
794s	riding and organization so same thing
797s	actually same thing basically two
799s	economical tchs they riding and they're
801s	already Jing it
803s	[Music]
804s	out purple also getting quite close to
806s	the village in the nors
810s	and to the ruin over here so they're
812s	about to get some nice uh B but oh pink
816s	is trying to contest it they're trying
818s	to hit the swordsman trying to get it
820s	down um so that they can kill it before
823s	it can actually capture the village
825s	which could be a good play because if it
827s	gets the village with full health
829s	there's basically no stopping them
830s	anymore
831s	mhm however quite an expensive task to
835s	perform I mean they've got it to half HP
837s	and basically lost two riders for it
840s	well they didn't really lose him right
842s	because look here this Rider is one of
843s	the riders that hit the swordsman and
845s	now it's about to capture a village so
848s	the rider is not lost it just hit the
850s	swordsman and then went off to do
851s	something
852s	else nice
855s	tactic oh andman is oh and here the
858s	other one yeah ni nice bounce yeah so
862s	both of them oh and we have the first
864s	Super unit of the
866s	game yes turn 11 with so much fighting
870s	going on that's quite good for
872s	Aquarian oh but um purple is also really
876s	starting with dexs they have five decks
879s	at the moment um just look at just look
882s	at the amount of Aqua forms yeah it's
884s	crazy I wanted to to mention that that
887s	uh it's usually not not that uh not that
891s	great with aqua FS but this this spawn
893s	is is just
894s	crazy yeah so I look forward to see how
897s	many craps are going going to come out
899s	of this one and they grab another
902s	Explorer to find the ruin at the um
907s	Lighthouse I can never wrap my head
909s	around when Pros pick explorers and when
912s	they go for workshops and I always have
914s	the feeling that whatever I do is wrong
916s	and for some
918s	reason I find it fascinating to look at
921s	these plays
922s	and why did he go for an Explorer here
926s	why does he want Vision on those uh back
928s	villages in the left corner
931s	or was it really just for the lighthouse
933s	I think it was mainly to fight because
935s	purple if we go back here if you look at
938s	how how they are purple does not have
940s	any Vision purple knows there's a lot of
941s	amphibians in this corner here because
943s	their s swordman got hit a few times so
947s	they know something is going on but they
949s	can't actually react to it they can't
950s	fight it they can't send their own
952s	amphibians in there because I just don't
954s	see what is happening so I actually
956s	agree that Explorer here is a really
958s	good choice mhm yeah and also there was
961s	a chance to to get this Western
963s	Lighthouse because the Explorer usually
967s	um yeah in those situations goes in a
969s	straight line so uh two lighthouses that
972s	saves you know it saves time yep exactly
976s	so let's go back to purple here and see
980s	what they're doing they're I think
982s	they're going for their second Giants no
985s	not
986s	yet because they do still have oh yeah
988s	there it is there there it is so two
991s	craps outs with 16 Stars per turn they
995s	deny went down exactly so the hitting
999s	did spay off in the end although let's
1002s	see for how long because they have a lot
1005s	of low Health units here and purple I
1007s	mean eventually it's going to pay
1011s	off let's oh and they discover the
1013s	second grab
1016s	already that's always one of those oh my
1019s	God going to panic
1020s	moment yeah but not not with Meister
1023s	Lampa because the the purple player is
1026s	me Lampa and he's like so cool you know
1029s	like there he's not losing his nerve
1032s	anytime like I saw some crazy games when
1036s	he was you know like uh about to lose
1039s	and he turned it around so maybe a
1042s	little break uh in the in our commenting
1045s	there's a question um which tribe should
1048s	I buy first
1052s	what would you recommend well I would
1055s	say um it depends on what you're looking
1057s	for if you're looking for a strong tribe
1060s	that's a bit different but not really uh
1063s	something completely out of the world I
1065s	would recommend you to buy the Kiku
1067s	tribe because they are very strong from
1071s	what I know and have a little different
1073s	gamep play but aren't completely out of
1076s	the world um if you're looking for a fun
1079s	experience that complet that's
1080s	completely different I would recommend
1082s	you one of the special tribes and my
1086s	personal favorite is simanti I would
1088s	recommend that to you um wink wink tribe
1091s	with a very unique play style and lots
1094s	of
1095s	uh good stats and it's just a fun
1099s	experience to play Santi in my opinion
1102s	uh ultimately it's up to you some people
1104s	enjoy Polaris a lot some people enjoy
1106s	Aquarian a lot and there's always
1107s	someone for the luon so
1109s	I guess it depends on who you ask your
1112s	recommendation
1113s	one well personally um I'm a really big
1116s	fan of bothan and
1119s	Aquarian I do think Alyan is a little
1121s	bit more difficult to pick up at first
1124s	they're they play quite similar to a
1126s	regular tribe but there's um some more
1130s	economical details that you have to keep
1132s	in mind so I wouldn't recommend them to
1135s	um a very new player so instead I would
1138s	go with um well I say Aquarian Aquarian
1141s	just got this huge facelift it's a very
1143s	interesting
1144s	tribe and other than that I also agree
1147s	with maradon um that Kiku is a really
1150s	good tribe for beginners because Kiku is
1152s	like the tribe that specializes on um
1155s	getting through the water quickly
1157s	getting they quite versatile so both on
1159s	land and uh and water they perform quite
1162s	well I think yeah exactly they're
1165s	they're also just a really really strong
1166s	tribe but they're just a good tribe to
1168s	learn how to um claim the oceans for
1171s	yourself basically okay so there you go
1175s	zazi thanks for the question okay let's
1178s	continue so we we see here that's um
1182s	think what's the name again that's Quay
1184s	um got Defenders from a ruin before
1188s	which was a little bit unfor unfortunate
1191s	but Defenders are still quite all right
1194s	against um an army of amphibians I mean
1198s	you wouldn't run your right ERS into
1200s	Defenders either right so the Defenders
1202s	can still help to um the pressure of
1205s	their of their backline M let's see what
1208s	we're doing here oh and the crab is
1211s	moving in to contest The Village because
1214s	me Lampa has managed to kill all the
1218s	other units that were were
1224s	around purple should really hurry up in
1227s	getting a super unit
1229s	in my
1231s	opinion not looking good for
1233s	them oh and another Explorer here that's
1236s	a b
1238s	one there was still some fog to uncover
1242s	so not bad but I'm a bit surprised by
1246s	it yeah some players they're going to
1249s	lose the city anyway some players take
1252s	the explorers to to [ __ ] the uh the
1256s	town that they will lose
1259s	by the way we are seeing both players at
1261s	16 Stars per turn so again they're
1265s	really really similar in their
1268s	economy and I think purple at the moment
1270s	has five cities pink is about to get
1273s	their fifth
1276s	one from
1278s	purple oh well actually they're about to
1281s	get their sixth one in that case uh but
1283s	I'm not really sure they will get their
1285s	six one however oh what a nice time push
1290s	what a nice giant push that's awesome
1293s	the crab gets completely removed all the
1295s	units that came to support it get killed
1297s	off and purple says Noe we're not doing
1305s	this still [ __ ] has another grab over
1308s	here and they keep the pressure on um
1311s	keep trying to make B's life difficult
1314s	and just completely um kill them with
1317s	their early unit unit advantage
1322s	so game oh
1325s	my yet another giant push from
1329s	purple yes indeed
1333s	wow so I don't think pink is too happy
1336s	at the moment both all of purple has the
1339s	Super unit Advantage if I'm not mistaken
1342s	um yeah actually they have four crabs at
1345s	the moment so they they're really used
1348s	take a look at that all those equa forms
1350s	all of them got um got
1353s	used so they're yeah they're really
1355s	pushing at the
1361s	moment still think um keeps trying keeps
1365s	going forward and pink got their first
1366s	shark here so sharks um for those who
1370s	don't yet know it and sharks deal three
1373s	damage and opponents don't deal any
1376s	retaliation damage to sharks because
1378s	they have the surprise
1380s	that a shark is able to a crap without
1383s	taking any Dage
1385s	themselves so we might see some AC from
1387s	the uh from
1388s	this but still sharks are quite
1391s	vulnerable because of the their 10
1394s	Health
1395s	points that's also true it's quite easy
1398s	to kill
1399s	them so we see here this the shark took
1403s	no damage the assortment took 13
1405s	retaliation
1406s	damage those scraps really really strong
1409s	um difficult to kill they're just so
1413s	defensive but we also see our first
1414s	jelly coming
1417s	out really nice unit really really uni
1420s	unique as
1421s	well yeah and what just said the shark
1425s	here got instantly deleted by the grab
1428s	even though did not do any retaliation
1431s	damage it still got the shark in the
1433s	[Music]
1435s	end but yeah at the moment what did you
1438s	guys say about the position of uh of
1441s	both players how how are they looking so
1445s	it's five against 5 C's right uh
1450s	yeah how exactly are we looking uh
1453s	economy
1455s	wise um so I think purple was slightly
1459s	ahead uh let me
1464s	quickly okay so purple has a tiny
1466s	economy advantage
1468s	yeah
1470s	whereas sorry go ahead uh to to give a
1475s	shot at it uh I would say both players
1477s	are still standing pretty equal uh
1480s	purple has a slight advantage in uh the
1482s	amount of super units they have and a
1484s	slight advantage in in economy however I
1487s	think ping is preparing for a big attack
1490s	and they almost got their full City
1492s	territory in the middle City crammed
1494s	with units and are on the move forward I
1498s	would say how this game will go is that
1501s	either pink will have an attack and will
1503s	crush uh purple or purple manages to get
1507s	to grab hold of the game and will win on
1509s	the long
1510s	term yeah so so purple is definitely
1513s	lacking the support units so obviously
1515s	crabs are are nice but and you know
1518s	tanky but without uh without the support
1521s	units they are not so
1524s	great well not not so great I mean the
1527s	opponent needs to have means to take
1529s	them down right and as we've already
1531s	seen Riders and warriors they will
1534s	struggle killing a crap I think you
1536s	would need 12 13 warriors to kill a
1539s	single crap so the CRA with with the
1542s	help of
1543s	sharks when they don't get the
1545s	retaliation it's crabs are not that
1548s	scary anymore so it's it's I think it's
1551s	it's a good strategy to to actually go
1553s	uh go sharks against against crabs
1559s	yeah let let's see how it
1560s	goes the jellyfish moves in as well yeah
1564s	I thought it was a crab and it's a jelly
1566s	okay
1572s	mhm yeah the well both sharks are
1576s	already down okay and we are going
1579s	Trident I see oh yeah inde D we are oh
1584s	yes let's see those because those really
1586s	change as well
1587s	right now that we first see the new
1590s	tridion what are you guys' opinions on
1592s	them they have undergone some changes
1595s	that may seem slight but are quite
1597s	significant in my opinion so what do you
1599s	say do you prefer the old ones or the
1602s	new ones do you think they're
1603s	overpowered or balanced because I've
1605s	seen there's a lot of discussion going
1607s	on about that in the community and I
1611s	wanted to ask you
1612s	guys
1614s	one so my personal take on Traditions um
1618s	the old ones were definitely overpowered
1621s	they were way too good for how much they
1623s	cost um but because the old Aquarian
1625s	didn't have too much going for them they
1628s	needed a strong unit to be able to come
1629s	back um with the curent fenan I think
1632s	they're actually really really fair for
1634s	their cost like I I would pay eight
1636s	stars for tradtion every single day and
1639s	I don't think it is um the tradtions are
1641s	too strong either for that cost however
1644s	um it is sometimes a bit difficult to
1646s	get to the tans because you need to buy
1649s	two whole tchs so I think tensions are
1653s	really good units really fair units I'm
1656s	not entirely sure about their position
1657s	in teory at the moment however I like
1660s	them and I really like playing with them
1662s	as
1663s	well uh yeah so um I I did not like them
1669s	when uh I think in the beta where they
1672s	were they had
1674s	three um three attack because then it
1678s	was it was very difficult to um to catch
1682s	up with them and fight them uh because
1684s	they were obviously you know killing all
1686s	those uh weaker units like uh Warriors
1690s	or uh or riders with with one shot so
1694s	with 2.5 I think they are quite balanced
1698s	and yeah and it's like uh it's kind of
1701s	refreshing because with the with the
1702s	Escape that they used to have um they
1705s	were like it was it was crazy because
1708s	overall they had uh
1712s	um the the the range they had it was it
1715s	was completely uh you know impossible to
1719s	to fight them
1721s	almost so with the with the persists uh
1725s	they you need to have you know bigger
1727s	numbers and uh and also support units
1730s	for them to weaken the uh the your your
1734s	enemies uh units uh and then the the
1738s	triy are very useful because they they
1741s	essentially sweep the uh the the field
1744s	so yeah so it's it's it's it's a
1746s	different different mechanics and and
1749s	I'm actually uh happy that this was
1752s	changed from from this escape to to
1755s	persist um yeah I would agree with you
1757s	on that they got a lot more tactical and
1759s	a lot more fair mhm um a question from
1762s	from a viewer so Dante is asking is the
1765s	location where daggers spawn after the
1767s	cloak hit it's deterministic apart from
1771s	the defense bonus uh
1775s	[Music]
1776s	prioritization do you know anything
1778s	about that I will say right away good
1781s	question and I have absolutely no clue I
1784s	honestly never thought about it and I
1786s	also wouldn't really know why that
1788s	matters a lot but I personally haven't
1790s	recognized any pattern but let's see if
1792s	one knows anything about that I think
1795s	for all intents and purposes it is
1797s	random if you have the same city and it
1799s	will send cloaks to it a few times the
1801s	daggers will be spawning in different
1803s	locations of course as you already
1805s	pointed out they will first prioritize
1808s	the defense locations but once those are
1810s	filled or among the defense locations
1813s	you will see cloak SP dager spawning in
1815s	different positions so yeah Al I would
1817s	also say it's it's random and it also
1820s	doesn't really matter if you don't have
1822s	any bonuses cuz if you don't have
1824s	climbing or uh archery it's like
1828s	you know it's doesn't really matter
1830s	where the the this the the dagger
1835s	spawn they will be in range definitely
1838s	to to attack on on the next uh next turn
1842s	so but other than that it's it's quite
1845s	Irrelevant for me where where they
1849s	spawn but may maybe someone someone in
1851s	the audience knows the the answer to the
1854s	question so let's uh let's send it to to
1857s	our viewers as
1860s	well so are we ready to see the let's
1865s	continue and see how the
1869s	game continue yeah so we have Master
1872s	here he tensions other side guay guay I
1876s	think yeah got the Sharks and the
1880s	jellies so got a bit of um bit of all
1883s	different types of units the crap here
1886s	it's I think it's actually going to go
1888s	down
1889s	damn taking down a full crap with
1892s	um with small units like that or ah no
1896s	no he's not pressing the
1901s	attack yeah okay the trition hits so
1904s	here trition basically 2.5 attack it's
1908s	decent damage we didn't really see any
1910s	chaining just yet M could you move the
1913s	the map to more to the center uh one I'm
1916s	sorry yeah mhm of course um but yeah we
1920s	see one of the uses already that
1922s	tensions can basically act a slightly
1925s	faster slightly stronger archers who can
1928s	be used to poke down
1930s	crabs and the crabs don't really have a
1932s	way to Counterattack
1934s	[Music]
1942s	them see
1944s	[Music]
1949s	okay so pink is pushing towards the
1951s	capital with two crabs mhm I guess he's
1954s	trying to
1956s	um to just cheese out a win here by
1959s	going for a quick quick
1962s	Siege yeah also maybe just redirecting
1965s	purple's attention to a different part
1966s	of the map and uh basically forcing him
1969s	to spend his economy uh away from the
1974s	attacking and defending lines and have
1977s	him constantly Panic about about two
1979s	super units your
1981s	Capital quite a play I've never seen
1983s	that before
1985s	honestly the they push towards the
1987s	capital you mean
1988s	exactly yeah I mean it's quite difficult
1991s	to stop two crabs going for a capital
1994s	and just ignoring everything in
1996s	between um but I think well the crap is
2000s	already down to 21
2002s	HP so I think my is actually handling it
2005s	quite
2007s	well see well the crap here is also
2009s	about to go down so both sides are
2011s	starting to indeed kill the CBS
2015s	mhm the tri denan gets to live
2021s	sadly but pink is uh pulling backr the
2024s	entire line because well Pig knows that
2027s	the tridion here if it can get some good
2030s	attacks going among the amphibians it
2032s	can start killing more and more of them
2033s	at the same time so yeah think is
2036s	definitely afraid of um everything oh
2038s	and this rep here went down as
2040s	well so that kind of defeats um Pink's
2046s	push on the capital here because now
2048s	with only one CP he doesn't have any way
2050s	of killing the jellyfish anymore Y and
2054s	they they can also uh disband the the
2057s	damag jellies and produce new ones so
2061s	it's yeah it's it's impossible and I
2064s	think yeah I think pink realizes it as
2068s	well even though pink still has five
2070s	cities and the economy 25 Stars per turn
2073s	against 28 Stars per turn pink at this
2076s	moment um feels like there's not really
2079s	anything they can do to come back purple
2082s	has too many many tradtions purple has a
2084s	ranged Advantage um and so the push here
2087s	will be quite inevitable could you show
2089s	the show Pink's uh Tech Tree
2093s	so so we could see how far yeah so they
2096s	they don't did not even get spirit so
2100s	yeah it was impossible for them to but
2103s	maybe you know diplomacy yeah but with
2107s	with those jer's there it would have
2109s	been really hard to so sneak a cloak
2114s	anywhere and the me lamp also did not uh
2118s	get any border growth so it's no it's it
2122s	wasn't a good idea yeah cloaks are not
2125s	very good against fenians and jellyfish
2128s	still I think it would be good if you
2130s	could uh explain again why exactly pink
2133s	resigns here because to the uneducated
2137s	eye I think it looks pretty much like uh
2140s	the situation still is fairly balanced
2142s	and certainly not lost enough for
2144s	someone to resign like
2147s	that well um the thing is if you look at
2150s	the number of craps both sides have pink
2152s	has one crap over here purple has four
2156s	craps spread across the map so purple is
2158s	ahead in um super units and in pushing
2161s	power in general and the super units
2163s	that ping does have they're also oh
2165s	sorry pink has two super units but this
2167s	one it's kind of out of position it
2170s	can't really do much anymore it's just
2171s	going to get killed over a few turn by
2174s	The trads Who are sitting
2176s	here um so pink is about to lose their
2180s	this super unit and this super unit well
2182s	with the tensions attacking it from
2184s	range the super unit can't really do
2187s	much counter damage so just sitting
2188s	there waiting to die then you could say
2191s	like okay well but ping still has a big
2192s	army yes ping does have a big army but
2196s	if you look at them all of these are
2198s	amphibians amphibians are really really
2200s	good units but amphibians can't do very
2203s	much against
2204s	jellyfish and so we expect here that if
2208s	the game will play out a little bit
2209s	further purple will push up with
2212s	combination of
2213s	jellyfish and um crabs at the front um
2217s	and with the tensions right behind that
2220s	and so Pink Just sees they will not have
2223s	any way of getting their amphibians to
2225s	actually kill the fenians they will keep
2228s	getting pushed back keep getting pushed
2229s	back and back and back and they
2232s	basically decided that's um a painful
2235s	process I don't want to go through um
2237s	it's clear to me that in four five six
2240s	turns I will start losing this city this
2243s	city and they decided to pull the pl
2247s	right here here yeah I agree because
2249s	with the it's really hard to fight
2251s	jelles with the with amphibians because
2254s	once they get in range of the dentals
2257s	they get damage uh
2260s	and they have to heal on the next uh
2263s	turn otherwise they will be dead
2267s	so what a game you really need Trident
2271s	or I don't know
2272s	[Music]
2274s	sharks so yeah the first game ends quite
2277s	a
2278s	GG
2280s	um but don't worry we have um more games
2284s	for you and this one I think plays out
2286s	until quite close to the
2289s	End by the way congratulations to M lamp
2292s	on his first
2294s	win that's going a bit too fast mhm yeah
2298s	let's let's look at the spawns
2301s	first maybe we could zoom zoom in a bit
2304s	and see the
2306s	pawns could
2308s	like uh yeah um put forward the the
2314s	replay a bit so we can see the
2316s	resources yeah cuz now
2318s	it's mhm yeah all right so what do you
2324s	think um if you see see here red only
2327s	has two
2328s	fruits pink has two fruits and two fish
2331s	um generally especially on an
2333s	archipelago map like this fish is a
2336s	better starting resource for a Aran than
2338s	um than fruit are so B does have the
2341s	advantage on that that regard also if
2344s	you look here there's resources all over
2347s	um all around whereas for Reds they only
2351s	have this one fruit here so not too much
2354s	there of course things could still be
2357s	hidden we have all this empty water
2359s	there's likely going to be a few Aqua
2361s	farms in
2363s	here before we start the actual replay I
2366s	think we should also introduce our uh
2369s	contestants for this match right yes you
2374s	are absolutely right we have uh so we
2377s	have me Lum again from last match
2381s	playing uh the pink Aquarion this time
2384s	and we have a player named QC corado uh
2388s	with the red Aquarion y I am not
2392s	entirely sure if I've met him or talked
2395s	to him before the name doesn't familiar
2398s	to me what about you R Kora um I
2401s	actually play several games with him a
2403s	week he um he tends to make a lot of
2405s	free-for-all games um and he has a group
2408s	of skilled players he puts in there and
2410s	just like puts a ton of people on a very
2413s	small map and says now fights please uh
2417s	so yeah I play with this this guy very
2420s	regularly interesting let's see that
2423s	respects in his play style they're
2425s	they're both really good players as well
2427s	so
2428s	let's see where this match takes
2434s	them so standard opening for both of
2437s	them oh and red does not find a
2443s	village that's
2445s	um that's a bit annoying for them so
2448s	let's see what they going to do about
2451s	this pink meanwhile gets nice standard
2454s	opening oh but red does find a
2456s	ruin right right here at the situation
2458s	already quite looks like there's going
2460s	to be some massive fighting in the
2462s	center here I mean doesn't this just set
2465s	the stage for a grand battle in the
2467s	middle of the map I I I personally love
2471s	this opening because it's it's so it
2474s	already looks so sharp in my opinion
2477s	it's a unbalanced spawns and red doesn't
2480s	find a village but finds a ruin that's
2482s	close to Pink I I just wanted to point
2486s	out how much I love this
2489s	sh so let's see what um oh I see someone
2492s	in the chat asks for higher quality
2495s	stream I'm not sure I can actually make
2497s	it any better than
2499s	um yeah it's uh it's you know the
2504s	internet yeah sorry about that we'll try
2506s	we'll try to improve that um let's focus
2510s	on the
2513s	game all right so Mass lamp as expected
2517s	go for f fishing reveals a few nice Aqua
2520s	forms and starts upgrading everything I
2523s	don't think my lamp actually knows how
2525s	close no m l has no idea that Kora is
2529s	hiding here in the [ __ ] and I don't
2532s	think Kora knows that m l is there
2534s	either so they're still oblivious to
2536s	each other oh no no no he definitely
2538s	knows with the village showing up here
2541s	he knows that this Warrior is um in a
2544s	bad spot he goes for double ruin though
2546s	so he he
2548s	recognizes the spawn is not good I
2551s	really need some ruin Lu here to um to
2554s	bounce back and to try to get something
2556s	to work what a move right there just
2560s	basically raising your hands and praying
2563s	to the gods of RNG they they may give
2565s	you something good out of those two
2567s	ruines please m one grant me this one
2573s	thing and cor goes for organization this
2576s	reveals some um
2578s	just reveal some uh Farms over
2581s	here and now Master Lampa
2584s	also um finds the warrior but well he
2589s	won't be able to kill it before the
2591s	warrior opens the present from
2596s	mijan ASA actually goes for a workshop
2600s	here uh let me quickly go back to his VI
2603s	so he goes for a workshop here even
2606s	though he knows for sure that that red
2608s	is somewhere over here so we decided at
2610s	the moment I want to go all in on um all
2616s	in on economy I don't need the vision
2618s	just yet that's for
2620s	later see but that's also a decision I
2622s	can't really understand because uh after
2625s	all what an Explorer wants you uh to do
2629s	is uh gain Vision on your opponent right
2632s	and here uh Pink aquarum basically has
2635s	no vision on his opponent and he sees a
2637s	single Warrior that stepped out of the
2639s	fog and it's currently standing in a
2641s	ruin there could be half an army back
2644s	there why doesn't you just take an
2646s	Explorer there and uh place it uh as
2649s	risky as taking a
2652s	workshop yeah I think either one could
2655s	be good but remember we are on turn four
2658s	right now so the chance that um red has
2661s	an entire Army over here is quite low so
2665s	I'm I'm not sure that he really needs
2668s	immediately still I am a bit doubtful um
2671s	I didn't really count his economy it
2672s	might be that he just was planning for
2674s	next turn like okay if I get a workshop
2676s	now then it means next turn I can buy
2678s	these things and that's more important
2680s	than getting an
2681s	Explorer because well good players they
2685s	tend to really calculate out every
2687s	single penny I think next turn he will
2690s	have 10 Stars Then stars is exactly
2693s	enough to get riding in a single
2695s	amphibian so maybe that's why he got
2697s	went for the workshop instead of the
2699s	Explorer because he interesting
2702s	idea uh could you could you go back a
2704s	bit so uh where what was first like he
2708s	upgraded the the
2710s	um no the he already saw the the warrior
2713s	yeah yeah so it's saw the warrior and
2716s	then that point because it's so some um
2719s	really good players when they see their
2723s	opponents uh so that the direction where
2726s	the opponent is coming from from so they
2729s	then they kind of know where to go so
2731s	like they are not uh guessing anymore so
2735s	it's kind of reasonable to go Eco
2739s	because you already know where your
2740s	opponent is so it's like building up
2743s	your uh your resources and then uh
2746s	revealing the uh the land with uh with
2750s	riders or with uh amphibians right yeah
2755s	okay this might also be an answer
2760s	so let's see what's in the ruin and what
2766s	M lamp is going to do with his added
2769s	economy so we got an Explorer over here
2771s	in the ruin not bad although I think he
2774s	was hoping for something that gave him a
2776s	little bit more Tempo he does have
2779s	really nice Vision though of um pretty
2782s	much the entire territory of my and
2785s	oh feran Swordsman
2789s	yeah that's I guess MIT Wan gave him
2792s	what he
2794s	wanted yeah that one is going to um to
2796s	be difficult to deal with damn veteran
2799s	sourceman this early right next to the
2802s	Village um maybe we're not one
2806s	amphibians let see so yeah he kills the
2809s	other Warrior makes sense explores a
2812s	little bit and yeah just goes all in on
2814s	more Warriors he knows I really really
2817s	need
2818s	to BU up right now this is not the time
2820s	for um for
2824s	Riders by the way have you guys noticed
2827s	that the aquarium Explorer actually has
2829s	like the little mermaid fins and all the
2833s	and this kind of aquatic look to it I
2836s	just noticed it right now when you were
2839s	showing the Explorer uh yeah they remade
2842s	everything so so scw me off right now
2846s	the daggers are also so um mermaids so
2850s	daggers with the tails the every unit is
2854s	is is a mermaid
2856s	no I just love when game makers put so
2859s	much attention into the little details
2862s	always makes makes the game great for me
2865s	mhm yeah they they really did a lot of
2867s	effort on
2871s	Aquarian so what do we do with the
2874s	swordsman I I think we're the point the
2877s	the at the moment is just throw as many
2879s	warriors at it as possible M see because
2881s	we have eight Stars per turn here let's
2883s	take a look at the other s side the
2885s	other side only still has four stars per
2887s	turn so although they got the theeran
2890s	sourceman here they still need to get
2893s	their second
2895s	village but they putting on pressure
2897s	bouncing back trying to reveal some more
2899s	Villages without
2903s	success but they do have amphibians up
2906s	yeah just we see
2909s	the the mermaid spam just keep making
2914s	Warriors don't give the F sourcen any
2917s	opportunity to um to conquer your your
2922s	[Music]
2927s	territory oh and we're going
2929s	for going for hunting before we're going
2932s	for organization that's something you
2934s	don't see very often uman
2937s	mhm most of the time they go for
2940s	organization first because they don't
2941s	have so many um they don't have so many
2944s	animals but I think I guess this bwn for
2949s	Animals total is not bad it's it's
2952s	decent let's see where they go from
2957s	here okay another
2962s	Workshop revealing it killing the
2965s	warrior so yeah they're they gave up
2968s	using swordsman to attack the attack the
2971s	city instead now they're trying to just
2973s	use it to completely zone out me Lampe
2976s	to keep me Lampe in their corner while
2979s	they go out and grab Villages all around
2983s	keep in mind M lamp is still has more
2985s	Villages than
2991s	coras and
2994s	oh see this little guy here
2999s	mhm y first
3002s	Archer so archers archers are not
3004s	something you would um immediately
3006s	associate with
3008s	aquarium
3010s	however however they can be quite good
3015s	and I think we will see a lot of Archer
3016s	action in this game so don't don't sleep
3020s	on archers they really really are um are
3023s	strong units if used correctly
3028s	yeah immediately pulls back the
3030s	amphibian as well pulls back the swords
3033s	they did not want to mess with with the
3035s	Archer but extra
3038s	resources sorry uh extra resources from
3041s	the ruins so M Lampa got uh got some
3046s	extra
3047s	Stars yeah they they're farhead Stars at
3051s	the moment they with 24 Stars next turn
3054s	they can buy a lot of things I don't
3056s	know what they're planning yet but we'll
3059s	see and they're still a head economy
3062s	wise against
3064s	Kora so yeah here um I think we'll see
3068s	the power of Aquarian archers just
3070s	archers in general just start shooting
3073s	the veteran swordsman veteran swordsman
3075s	dies without being able to do much
3078s	else they they can just melt tanky units
3082s	yeah really really
3087s	let see okay water ways so first at
3092s	all and resources in both cities so yeah
3096s	just keeping up a strong economy
3099s	together with strong military
3101s	push I don't think Kora has too many
3105s	chances anymore at the moment what do
3107s	you guys think I'll put on
3110s	the yeah I I see those juicy you know
3113s	Aqua Farms maybe the that's the the way
3116s	to come back from
3119s	that yeah that's true if if he can push
3121s	for um for a few craps take down the
3124s	Warriors that might be one way out of
3126s	this still with a push like this coming
3130s	to your
3131s	cities um I think he has to uh get quite
3135s	the perfect timing on his recovery
3139s	because right now it's just looking like
3141s	red is dead lost I mean yes he's
3143s	capturing two Villages but he's way
3145s	behind in economy he basically has no
3148s	units on the field and the few he has
3150s	are spread out entirely and aren't
3153s	really coordinated so if anything i' uh
3157s	I would put my money on pink Aquarian
3159s	right
3161s	now all right so let's see what R do
3164s	getting a bit more oh and they are
3166s	actually going for yeah like predicted
3170s	mhm yeah they don't have um don't have
3172s	enough stars to use them um at the
3174s	moment so I guess will see some more
3177s	economy next
3179s	turn pink here yeah just killing all the
3183s	explorers that um all the units that's
3185s	red head out here to capture Villages so
3188s	Bing is now also securing this side of
3190s	the
3191s	map again putting up a lot of
3194s	pressure Red's going back in the corner
3197s	hoping to find some more cities up
3199s	[Music]
3202s	here oh wow and there goes his economy
3205s	that's a fascinating start
3208s	I mean he just basically doubled his
3211s	economy that turn right he started off
3213s	at seven and ended at 14 MH yeah the
3216s	moment you get the eforms up and running
3218s	Aquarian can be so so strong in their
3221s	economy like it can go really quickly
3224s	yeah and the side note so uh with the
3226s	with the update uh the S sorry not so
3231s	windmills work with wood Aqua Farms as
3234s	well and the aquarium has the ability to
3237s	build buildings on on water so uh there
3241s	is like a lot of crabs from might come
3245s	from those Aqua forms as well yeah I
3248s	already can identify a couple of good
3250s	spots on the map right there ah and also
3253s	the the fertiliz ability so uh aquarium
3258s	count burn
3260s	Forest uh but they can fertilize the the
3264s	flooded land so
3267s	farming which turns it into Aqua Farms
3270s	yeah farming is is is a great tech for
3272s	them to to build up their
3276s	Eco all right let's see how this plays
3280s	out yes so we start seeing our first
3282s	Siege I think red still has chance I
3286s	mean he can technically un Siege but
3288s	already uh this game oh
3292s	boy yeah what about the next Siege and
3295s	Siege after that
3300s	I mean he has the power of a quickly
3304s	growing economy uh on his
3307s	side but still I think it's going to be
3310s	a very very tough game for red aquarium
3314s	and he's going to be have to be very
3316s	quick with expanding
3318s	properly yeah and so because although
3321s	pink is um behind in Stars per turn they
3325s	did just pick up navigation as as well
3327s	mhm and they have the army so yeah they
3331s	they have let see here before they
3332s	research navigation they had units on
3335s	two different
3337s	starfish um they're going to pop off
3339s	again probably get some jellyfish mhm oh
3343s	and finally get an
3346s	Explorer going all the way in the back
3348s	let's see what does pink actually see at
3350s	the moments yeah I was about to say just
3353s	in case anyone is wondering what's going
3355s	on right now uh in our replays we have
3358s	the feature to show uh the shared fog of
3362s	both players which means that we can see
3364s	everything that any of the two players
3366s	has discovered which is why the Explorer
3368s	was going so weirdly right now and why
3371s	you may have noticed some weird things
3373s	going on in our repls those are not bugs
3376s	that's just a feature with disabling the
3379s	fog so they get MD Explorer actually
3382s	reaches the lighthouse and actually gets
3385s	them semicon
3388s	this time yes from last
3391s	game yeah so we have a units knocking on
3394s	doors door of both of those
3397s	cities
3400s	um yeah let's see what they're going to
3402s	do here oh they
3404s	uhy strategy or did they get
3407s	it uh no I think they yeah they they got
3411s	it from so with with the Stars because
3414s	it's they got two two veterans or
3417s	they bought it oh two veteran Swordsmen
3419s	yeah these are good but not if they're
3421s	this far in the back and not if the
3423s	opponent already has an army of archers
3426s	I wouldn't say these were good ruins
3428s	it's like maybe this one this swordsman
3430s	in the north Northeast uh kind of okay
3433s	but the other one is so far away that
3437s	but maybe time is really ticking for
3439s	Aquarian oh boy yeah mhm but yeah red
3443s	decides let's go for Shields let's just
3445s	try to hold out
3448s	keep back um other those units but yeah
3452s	I mean Shields can hold out a little bit
3455s	but against against
3457s	archers I don't think it's going to be
3463s	enough yeah trying to kill a few more
3467s	units oh went all the way for a city
3470s	wall well a defender on a city wall of
3473s	course that is that is quite tanky yeah
3477s	so that's very hard to break yeah there
3480s	will be some troubles getting those down
3483s	and maybe that will bu him the time he
3485s	just needs to recover and uh eventually
3489s	I mean red Aquarion is still the one
3493s	with the better economy and has been for
3495s	I think five turns now that has to make
3498s	a difference
3500s	eventually yeah oh ah he just doesn't
3503s	have enough to kill this um amphibian
3510s	that's yeah but the S will die anyway
3512s	because there's an Archer and another
3514s	amphibian in in range
3518s	so yeah and I think looking at um the
3522s	bar at the top it looks like red is
3524s	about to give up they know they F sealed
3527s	they try to survive a little bit longer
3530s	but with archers behind a wall of
3533s	jellyfish they realized there's nothing
3536s	else I can yeah so let's maybe recap so
3539s	what what could have uh red done
3543s	differently
3544s	too
3546s	um not to lose or to win for me
3550s	personally um uh I'm not the experti one
3555s	here but I would say uh that red had a
3558s	tough start from the beginning and he
3561s	gave recovering from it a good shot but
3563s	wasn't able to pull through quite quick
3567s	enough uh to stop can can actually
3570s	rewind to to the beginning so and uh uh
3575s	take down the fog so we will see
3578s	the so we could see
3584s	the yeah so I think this really captures
3587s	their starting positions red did give it
3590s	a good shots but they were just so far
3593s	behind you go to turn like four because
3596s	I think that there is
3598s	a or okay
3603s	yeah and play it because I I I I think
3608s	I I would disagree with something that
3612s	red has
3616s	done okay
3632s	I mean red explored into the wrong
3634s	direction twice that probably also
3636s	influenced the game heavily yeah there
3639s	was a good chance of Village being over
3641s	here in the corner so this was really
3644s	just bad bad luck that he didn't
3645s	discover any think the one the one play
3649s	that he might have done
3651s	differently um is here going for the
3653s	village instead of going for the ruin
3656s	because took a long time for red to even
3659s	get their second village if they had
3661s	gone for the village instead they might
3663s	would have gone the ru a little bit
3664s	later which would have still given them
3667s	um they would still have had claim to
3669s	the the ruin and they would have been
3671s	able to make second Warrior or second
3673s	unit to go explore in this direction
3676s	maybe find this ruin a little bit sooner
3678s	so that might have had a difference um
3681s	but I think overall pink was definitely
3684s	favored um just with their their density
3686s	of villages here and their early um the
3689s	early economy so even though yeah and I
3691s	would say that with the swordsman that
3694s	they got from the first R I'm inan red I
3696s	think that they should have kept it in
3698s	this uh area
3700s	of um me lamp second
3705s	CD uh because they you know kind of took
3708s	it to to this uh Middle
3711s	Village and it's it it it it eventually
3715s	died uh
3717s	um yeah it eventually died but it would
3719s	also have died if it stayed here because
3722s	with this yeah but then then you have
3723s	time for then there is time for other
3725s	units to um to occupy the village so
3729s	that they eventually got it as I
3732s	see yeah so maybe it was it wasn't a
3734s	mistake but I AG agree that the The
3737s	Village distribution for uh for red
3740s	wasn't wasn't that that
3744s	great m
3749s	so yeah yeah I don't know maybe
3752s	maybe uh maybe getting more uh more
3756s	military at some point uh I think
3759s	uh
3761s	going for those Aqua Farms even though
3764s	that they are great and there are like
3765s	so many of them uh wasn't wasn't the
3769s	best choice at some points CU they I
3771s	think that you have to you know like
3773s	keep that balance between uh between
3776s	your army and your economy I I get it
3779s	that they were in a in a tough spot that
3782s	uh they need to uh build their um build
3786s	up their uh economy but I think that
3789s	there was one turn that when they could
3791s	have uh uh trained uh amphibians instead
3795s	of getting those
3798s	upgrades and then there was uh there
3801s	could have been more space for for them
3803s	to to fight back did they buy them they
3807s	had them quite early
3809s	actually
3811s	mhm I no no it's just the replay being
3814s	little bit bucked
3815s	out uh when did they buy their aqua
3818s	forms
3820s	um yeah
3822s	here so turn 10 here they bought their
3825s	AA forms and at this point they couldn't
3827s	actually um make any more units because
3829s	if you look at it no no I mean after
3831s	after they got the the those two uh Two
3835s	Towns uh uh then there I think there was
3838s	one one turn when yeah where me Luma
3842s	Army was coming and they could have
3845s	gotten
3846s	more um more
3850s	amphibians yeah this true at this point
3853s	they uh they could have um yeah because
3856s	now they have you know just four units
3859s	or three
3861s	even and they can't really fight back
3866s	yeah I think at this point they were
3867s	probably hoping to um to push for a
3871s	crab they're thinking we can't win this
3873s	anymore with units MH I I have to get a
3877s	crap as soon as possible just so that I
3879s	can um can use a crap to fight this Army
3882s	because with aians I won't get through
3885s	this entire thing so I think that's what
3887s	they I assume that's what they were
3888s	going for at yeah that's fair mhm hello
3893s	Okie
3894s	doie GG to both players man what a game
3898s	still I'm still amazed how long uh red
3902s	Aquarion managed to uh stay in in the
3906s	game and I mean he resigned in the end
3908s	but he gave he put up a good fight and
3911s	it was still a very entertaining game in
3913s	my
3913s	opinion yeah he definitely uh gave it
3916s	his best
3917s	try all right that concludes Aquarian
3921s	games uh if I'm not mistaken y let's go
3925s	move on to the umaji highlights from
3929s	this month's
3931s	polium yes we have three games the mag
3934s	highlights for I think I'm going to
3937s	start with my favorite of um the mag
3941s	highlights let me change the music a
3945s	game
3947s	by uh with our players being uh force
3951s	from um I believe Force at the moment is
3954s	a house leader of Team Ronin on PO poly
3956s	Champions and also just a
3959s	veteran uh veteran poan player and as
3963s	the
3963s	opponent uh once again we see M lampy as
3968s	a contestant here so yeah we see a lot
3971s	of this guy but m l plays a lot of um a
3975s	lot of polium games he plays them very
3977s	well so he's a regular guest in the
3980s	highlights
3982s	yep let's
3984s	go so let's go just a little bit further
3986s	so that we see our
3989s	resources so this is actually a really
3991s	really interesting map we're playing
3993s	archipelago here and we see that both of
3996s	the capitals are connected by a very
3998s	small strip of land and because both of
4000s	them are omagi that means we could
4002s	actually see some rider rider combats on
4005s	archipelago which is a map that normally
4008s	mostly sees water combats mhm that's and
4011s	bridges definitely could you actually
4014s	turn off the autofocus so the the map
4017s	doesn't jump here and there okay
4021s	mhm so uh we see I believe this m yeah M
4026s	Lampe in Northeast starts off exploring
4029s	toward the center immediately finds a
4032s	village Force also goes towards the
4034s	center also finds himself a village and
4037s	both make a second
4039s	Rider M lamp doesn't immediately get
4041s	second village with other
4043s	Rider but neither do Force so we're
4046s	still going or rather
4050s	equal m going straight for fishing
4054s	instead of for um instead of going for
4057s	fruits um what do you guys think about
4060s	that well uh at this early stage of the
4064s	game I wouldn't really say it matters a
4065s	lot um for him because he could upgrade
4069s	both cities with both I think it's just
4071s	like a general uh Direction you want to
4073s	take the game in right uh if you go for
4076s	fishing you'll probably focus more on
4078s	naal combat and if you go for
4079s	organization you'll have access to uh
4082s	Defenders and eventually even cloaks uh
4086s	however I don't see cloaks working out
4089s	as well on such a small and uh cramp map
4093s	as archipelago as they probably would uh
4096s	say on continents or Pia or any of the
4099s	other map types mhm and we have a
4102s	question from our viewer Paul uh can we
4105s	see what yellow so why didn't they move
4108s	to the center what was the their
4111s	thinking of going more East discovering
4113s	the
4114s	village H so why did they go here and
4117s	not here M um I guess they assumed
4121s	there The Village either on this style
4124s	because of the fruit here in the corner
4126s	so they decided okay let's go here let's
4129s	see let's go here if there's a village
4131s	here or here we'll find it with the
4133s	fruits if they went here well there
4136s	could have still been a village on this
4137s	tile or on this tile but not on this
4140s	tile because if you zoom in closely and
4142s	you look at this water tile here the
4145s	water tile does not have a shoreline so
4147s	there is no tile here where the village
4150s	could be and I guess he assumed it was
4152s	more likely for Village to be here than
4154s	to be
4156s	here and also on archipelago Maps the
4160s	it's it's kind of a lottery right
4162s	because the
4163s	resources are um like sliced by the by
4168s	water and uh it's not that obvious
4172s	because on those uh more uh landbased
4178s	Maps obviously you should go to you know
4181s	for the center especially in uh uh on
4184s	drylands uh right uh but on archipelago
4187s	it's you have to be quite um you know
4192s	like observant and see you know where
4195s	the result ources are and be also Lucky
4198s	in my
4199s	opinion I see that Paul just commented
4202s	again that um he meant a different Rider
4205s	movement okay let's go back to turn
4208s	zero um I think you mean and why did he
4211s	go to this stle instead of to this stle
4213s	mhm um we don't just see the
4216s	resources um I think simply because this
4218s	was a stle with the fruit so there were
4221s	three different tiles that could be next
4223s	to this fruit that had a village if he
4226s	went here he didn't really have any
4228s	resource indicators for a village on
4230s	this style or at least not as clear as
4233s	the one for foot here no uh he I mean I
4237s	guess it was just a 50/50 right and he
4239s	just uh went for the better odds oh
4242s	actually um I just talked about
4243s	shorelines I will do it again this style
4246s	here does not have a shoreline on this
4248s	Edge so there could not be a village
4251s	here because this here is also a water
4253s	tile
4257s	yeah but anyway it's on archipelago it's
4259s	it's uh in a lot of cases it's pure luck
4263s	so obviously if he moved to this uh more
4266s	Center tile then he might have missed
4269s	the The Village so he would have found
4271s	it
4272s	definitely uh on the next move but then
4275s	you are like one turn uh one turn
4281s	um slower right yeah so if he had moved
4285s	here he wouldn't have actually
4286s	discovered anything yeah because water
4289s	and two empty tiles so he made right
4293s	right Co yes that's my St lamp you also
4296s	have to take that into consideration
4299s	Paul he's a magician so he
4303s	knows okay uh let's see how this game
4306s	unfolds I'm going to turn the fog back
4309s	on because I'm I think for the part
4311s	that's going to come next is interesting
4313s	to see what both players actually uh
4315s	actually
4317s	know so yeah we were here M got fishing
4321s	V oh unlucky didn't find Village over
4325s	here so he now only has one direction to
4329s	go further and furthermore vce knows as
4333s	Lampe is right next to him so force is
4336s	probably getting a little bit nervous at
4337s	this point this early in the game Mar L
4341s	meanwhile he doesn't know anything about
4342s	it going for a workshop again
4347s	probably because an Explorer had a
4350s	chance of just going into the corner and
4352s	not really revealing much but he has two
4355s	cities look he has um his eyes set on a
4358s	third one and a ruin in front of him so
4361s	he's probably feeling quite good at the
4363s	moment yeah and fishing on archipelago
4366s	is very useful because you don't need
4368s	the um the sailing Tech to reveal a lot
4371s	of uh uh fog uh because the there mostly
4376s	those shallow water tiles right so um
4379s	it's it's actually cheaper to get an
4381s	Explorer on Archie and Reve a lot of
4387s	um map mhm so at the moment here Forest
4392s	has um sees this ruin he knows he has a
4396s	chance to take it but he also knows that
4398s	his opponent is right right here so
4401s	force is probably going to um start
4404s	preparing for that oh no he he goes for
4406s	the
4407s	workshop leaves it at
4409s	[Music]
4410s	that Mar lamp and grabs his fish and
4414s	this time goes to an Explorer let's see
4416s	what he reveals and oh and he actually
4419s	finds his
4421s	opponent and immediately capitalizes on
4424s	that yeah so my Lampe attacks let's see
4428s	my Lampe does not see a unit here in
4431s	this in this city so he thinks he has
4434s	free um
4436s	free
4436s	room yeah too bad for him just behind
4441s	that there's another rider in the fog so
4444s	Forest will actually manage to uh to
4446s	kill the rider he bounces forward with
4448s	his rider yeah to block to block yeah
4452s	and to I think he is going to stay on
4454s	the ruin yeah he stays on the ruin so he
4457s	really a brutal move to just uh block
4460s	off the rider in the ruin with one that
4463s	he just sent to die
4466s	well I mean that's the thing right the
4469s	one Rider is worth so much more for him
4471s	like if this Rider stays alive that
4473s	could be 10 Stars it could be three
4476s	population this Rider is sorry this
4479s	Rider is very very valuable to him yeah
4482s	or swordsman so he uh he will want to
4485s	keep that one
4487s	alive so let's
4490s	see we get a few hits on there that's
4494s	the r of stays life so we can pop the
4496s	ruin but my Lampe as you can see is
4500s	getting a lot of riders ready to keep
4504s	fighting it is population population
4507s	generally really nice one but Force did
4511s	also has three fish here he could have
4513s	used to upgrade the city so he might not
4515s	he might have wanted a different one
4517s	instead um still I'm personally always
4521s	happy if I get population out of a ruin
4523s	it's really really solid reward
4527s	that's I think it would be great if we
4528s	could uh decide on what city we get the
4531s	population and not just Capital because
4534s	especially later I feel like Po uh late
4537s	game I feel like population uh gets
4539s	quite useless because it's just oh wow
4542s	okay now I have six of my nine required
4544s	population things to upgrade the city
4546s	and what I'm going to do about it and I
4549s	think it would make the uh ruin reward a
4552s	lot more useful if you could choose what
4555s	C what go on yeah that's a that's a cool
4558s	idea but at least now you can get Parks
4560s	so especially on the on those bigger
4562s	Maps uh you know getting a giant in the
4565s	in the back doesn't really make sense
4567s	but at least you can get Parks so it's
4569s	it's plus one
4572s	Stars that's
4574s	true that's a nice addition too of
4576s	course yeah you see here Force the
4579s	attack Rider bounces into the
4582s	village I think he leaves this one
4584s	standing here trying to block off and it
4586s	makes a few more Riders because of
4588s	course he does we're Omi we're fighting
4591s	we need our
4594s	Riders there any other units been on the
4597s	field in this game actually because if I
4600s	didn't miss any uh so far we've only
4603s	seen Riders trained so a classic Omi
4606s	experience you guys are seeing right
4608s	here
4610s	definitely so it kills the unit that's
4612s	in in the front he hits the other one
4615s	once and take a look at what he's doing
4618s	over here he is putting his riders in
4621s	front of the village completely blocking
4624s	him off so although force will be able
4626s	to get the village ly is in a really
4629s	good position to try to contest the
4630s	village
4632s	now he puts the other Riders there as
4634s	well he's really saying like no you stay
4637s	there that Village you're going to give
4638s	it back to me yes he's very
4644s	threatening great utilization of the
4646s	terrain right
4648s	here yeah they're they're really using
4650s	the um the narrow narrow edges here
4655s	so I am quite surprised no one has uh
4658s	gone for any Naval upgrades so far
4662s	because as we are seeing right now uh
4665s	not being able to move on water TRS is a
4667s	huge disadvantage for both players right
4671s	now um yes it it is a bit of a
4674s	disadvantage but at the same time at the
4676s	moment the fighting is all happening
4679s	around this Village like they really
4680s	tried to get it and if they would have
4683s	invested any stars any economy into
4685s	going for Naval they would not have been
4686s	able to contest The Village they would
4688s	have just set to the other one here have
4690s	the village and Riders are a lot more um
4694s	stars efficient than a naval units are
4696s	in combat so I think they um they just
4700s	decided to really fight it out try to
4702s	get as strong hold here as possible
4704s	because going for economy at the moment
4707s	might just give up the game the
4710s	[Music]
4712s	opponent they have another hit and I
4716s	think oh our first non Rider unit let's
4719s	go it took seven
4721s	turns
4724s	yeah see Force here is saying like Okay
4727s	you were blocking my units I'm gonna try
4729s	to open it up and now he's bucking the
4731s	city instead with his rider I don't
4734s	think that's enough to uh keep myamp
4736s	outo let's take a
4740s	look yeah mampe yeah and right
4745s	there that's a nice each and take a look
4748s	at this block um yeah this is going to
4751s	be so so difficult to break through yeah
4754s	he's not only blocking but also zoning
4756s	so this this Rider on the on the right
4759s	is zoning the so in order to get a unit
4763s	to here he would need to kill this unit
4766s	he would need to kill this unit and then
4767s	it would need to kill this unit so uh
4770s	force would need six units to be able to
4774s	actually un Siege it which obviously he
4777s	doesn't have or get a bridge so if if he
4780s	uh put a bridge there in this small Gap
4784s	then he has a he has a chance but I
4786s	don't think he has this that's a quite
4788s	the expensive solution to the
4791s	problem if he if he had a bridge why
4793s	doesn't yeah he he could potentially
4796s	afford a bridge to quit down here that
4798s	is fair too he would need a bridge and a
4800s	road though in order to get
4804s	his I guess he decided it wasn't worth
4807s	it yeah if he did that he would not be
4808s	able to build any units at all this turn
4811s	and then all the riders that M lamp had
4814s	they would um they would overrun him
4816s	so he decided not to do it St he's
4819s	hitting
4820s	Riders and he's putting his own Warrior
4823s	there to block as well mhm go players
4825s	are really quite an interesting
4828s	decision in my
4830s	opinion uh deciding to go right with the
4833s	warrior not where the actual uh
4835s	contesting the village is taking place I
4838s	mean it makes sense but it's one of
4840s	those plays that always shows me what's
4843s	the difference between those Pro players
4846s	and someone playing casually are because
4849s	I think most people would have just uh
4851s	taken the rider on the left side and
4853s	would have been done with it
4855s	uh but not war fascinating decision and
4860s	yeah if the warrior had moved here then
4863s	that would mean that this Warrior here
4864s	and this Rider here would be open it
4866s	could have been killed and then my elic
4869s	could have put on more pressure there so
4870s	I think this Warrior here is actually
4872s	trying to keep this Rider
4874s	alive to make sure that he um can use
4877s	his other units to maybe maybe try to
4880s	get the village back
4882s	again is definitely an interesting
4884s	choice
4886s	so yeah mampe
4887s	gets um roads and starts
4893s	hitting that turn no that's quite the
4897s	unfortunate turn of events so another
4900s	question from Paul why didn't purple go
4902s	for their Explorer on the
4904s	CD uh that was to be captured uh it's
4908s	not worth uh it wasn't worth it in this
4911s	case wasn't it worth it in this case um
4914s	I mean at this moment they don't really
4916s	need too much Vision out here because
4919s	there's no fighting happening out here
4921s	going for an Explorer would cost him
4923s	four
4925s	stars and at this moment he needs a lot
4927s	of unit a lot of stars just to spend on
4929s	units potentially to spend on roads next
4931s	turn he's trying to fight at the moment
4933s	he doesn't care about um using his
4936s	Riders to go out exploring and finding
4938s	new Villages because the Riders can't go
4940s	out and explore the Riders are stuck on
4943s	this small island which is what makes
4944s	this this the match so incredibly
4947s	interesting just the fact that they're
4948s	so
4950s	contained so uh to sum that up I would
4953s	say the Explorer would have had a likely
4956s	chance because uh Forest has already
4958s	researched fishing so the Explorer will
4961s	uh just walk away over the water and be
4964s	no good
4965s	use uh if I got you right there one yeah
4970s	exactly I think uh if I look at the
4973s	umaji pros in the chat they are um
4976s	saying the same thing as well yes I know
4978s	Jo join us so I know and justini both
4982s	really good
4984s	players oh wow what an audience we have
4987s	collected oh
4989s	Jesus we're waiting for gy to join and
4993s	we have our
4996s	Trio so yeah and let's see what force is
4999s	going to do about this so Force now um
5001s	puts down his Rose
5005s	moves rer from all the way in the back
5007s	and moves it forward to block so I think
5010s	Force has a plan to um take back his
5013s	village
5013s	again it's another Rider moves this one
5016s	back heals that
5018s	one blocks and a warrior here and let's
5022s	see what would Mar L need to get boss it
5026s	this Rider needs to die so he would need
5028s	two hits on this one this Rider also
5031s	blocks the entrance so this one also
5034s	needs to die so would need five hits to
5038s	get the village
5040s	back and still can afford one Rider so
5043s	that that was good investment yeah so
5047s	let's look here m l does technically
5049s	have five units but I don't think he
5051s	actually has the
5053s	Stars to make something like that
5057s	happen no like you see here he um he
5060s	kills the units and Village is back to
5062s	force
5066s	first go on to get a few more kills
5069s	again put a unit in front here to
5071s	protect the
5073s	village yeah now they upgrade in the
5076s	Explorer
5079s	mhm misses their the lighthouse
5085s	[Music]
5088s	again but m l is still going strong
5093s	getting a lot of progress towards the
5096s	village but I think B has secured it at
5098s	least for
5100s	now yeah although again my L has a big
5103s	army of riders here in the F
5106s	so uh that's yeah he will he will be
5109s	making his own units also have a lot of
5111s	Defense Warriors keep mind Warriors are
5114s	more difficult to kill than Riders they
5117s	um deal more damage on retaliation you
5119s	needs three Rider hits to kill a warrior
5121s	that's on on a village so
5125s	this um will make it a bit more
5127s	difficult for my
5129s	Sala Monument comes out Stars oh oh and
5134s	we see our first
5135s	roast so decided to say screw it I'm
5140s	going over the water I want
5142s	um to have a different approach here
5145s	yeah I want this down back it's
5150s	mine I wonder if you had planned it like
5153s	this uh for the Warrior to be blocking
5156s	up the city because if I'm not mistaken
5158s	he could have actually sieged the
5160s	village if he hadn't put his warrior in
5162s	front of that
5163s	right this was one of the main moments I
5166s	stumbled upon in this game because I
5168s	thought well if you just hadn't uh
5171s	killed the warrior here uh the 8 HP one
5175s	uh with another Warrior but with one of
5177s	the Riders you could have moved away
5179s	then maybe could he have sieged the
5182s	city what are you guys thoughts on that
5185s	let's see could he have done
5188s	that
5190s	um maybe just played a little
5194s	further so okay we get the road
5198s	here
5201s	and
5202s	okay now what if here instead of uh
5207s	attacking with the warrior second you
5208s	would have taken the 8 HP Rider from all
5210s	the way back there hit it and kill the
5213s	warrior and you still would have had the
5217s	two 9 HP
5219s	riders that is true yeah this one had G
5223s	first hit first then this one killed
5225s	then this one went in he would have
5227s	needed another road on here but that's
5229s	possible uh so yeah it does seem like he
5233s	did actually have an option to kill the
5236s	warrior although he keep in mind you
5239s	need three units to kill a warrior on a
5242s	city so two units to kill the warrior
5247s	two units left so he didn't have enough
5250s	to kill
5251s	it yeah but it would have been expensive
5254s	I think for like so I don't think he
5257s	actually could um get the kill
5260s	in okay maybe maybe I just I'm just
5263s	miscalculating could
5265s	be okay he decides to heal the Riders
5268s	anyway uh a good decision too probably
5272s	but while this game is going back and
5274s	forth
5275s	really quickly it's uh at least for me
5278s	it's quite impossible to predict what's
5280s	going to happen next move and how how
5283s	the game is standing I mean of course
5285s	right now uh yellow maaji has a huge
5288s	advantage on Army um let's take a
5291s	general
5292s	look yeah yellow indeed has a lot more
5296s	units um yellow could for example open
5300s	up um some use some bridges to cross uh
5304s	um cross over here purple could make
5307s	bridges here we already saw the bridge
5310s	here they don't really have too many
5312s	opportunities to use Bridges to go out
5315s	exploring so I think we will we would
5318s	mainly see them fighting on the
5320s	continent here although purple is about
5323s	to get themselves um another city so
5327s	purple will have the city Advantage from
5329s	uh from here on M with the number of
5332s	riders that's um that y has they might
5335s	still be able to uh Force something out
5338s	so question to you one because you're
5341s	you're a pro are you using skins or you
5346s	don't why did they never use skins um I
5348s	use skins almost all the time um the
5352s	only one I don't use is um umaji because
5355s	I really don't like it okay there you
5360s	go actually I'm going to quickly switch
5363s	my two screens have the game here in the
5366s	center that way I won't be pulling it
5368s	off center all the time mhm all
5372s	right
5375s	so on at this point I would say yellow
5379s	has the econ the um the military
5381s	Advantage but I just pe ah head a little
5385s	bit um and I think we stopped right in
5387s	the middle of this city here upgrading
5389s	and getting a giant which I mean is
5394s	really really important um in a game
5397s	where there's only
5400s	Riders yep there is the giant so yeah we
5403s	have a giant here and a giant will be
5407s	very difficult to deal with and we're
5409s	getting a city wall here Forest says no
5412s	I am keeping the city you're not getting
5413s	it back
5415s	anymore still with so many
5419s	riders yeah with all these Riders my is
5422s	still going for it sends in four Riders
5426s	get them all bit low but still manages
5428s	to actually Siege the city with veteran
5432s	swords wow that's
5434s	unfortunate War really um went all in
5438s	there yeah especially as V just put one
5441s	of his monuments into uh upgrading the
5444s	city well maybe he can squeeze out a
5446s	giant push let's
5448s	see yeah because she just as she just
5450s	said one of his monuments but for still
5455s	hasn't put down his killer
5456s	monuments let's see what he
5459s	does no he has enough because it's yes
5463s	three resources and Monument he gets a
5466s	giant yeah City secured again
5470s	for yeah my this happening in sides no
5475s	I'm not winning this anymore his last
5477s	game it was foiled still a really really
5481s	amazing match in my opinion and
5483s	um big congrats to both players they
5485s	played it so extremely well there were
5488s	so many good blocks so many interesting
5491s	interesting plays in
5492s	here yeah for me it's definitely so one
5496s	you lost a fan so is no longer my
5498s	favorite commentator after this
5500s	wow that's very harsh of you so justini
5505s	is not your friend
5507s	anymore you've made a mighty
5510s	enemy do you even play with your magic
5513s	skin justini I think you I always see
5516s	you with a normal skin
5521s	right but you have can already hear the
5524s	aggressive
5526s	typing yeah oh God and I know is also
5529s	angry at um my magic comments good thing
5531s	I know is no longer my team leader so he
5533s	can't kick me out for
5534s	[Laughter]
5535s	it yeah so justiny says I use this game
5539s	well okay if I'm being very honest uh
5542s	with you guys uh I agree with one on
5545s	this one I personally also don't really
5547s	like the maachi
5548s	skin it's also I'll be the opposite I I
5552s	don't have the the the what they are
5555s	called the Skins Condor the yeah the
5559s	Condor no I I like them the only one
5562s	that that I dislike is the is the Kali I
5565s	think this is like oh my God I mean the
5568s	the quali ones uh I just saw them as
5572s	memes of some sort because you know uh
5576s	quali people in the Discord server by
5578s	the way if any of you guys watching
5580s	right now hasn't joined it go join it uh
5582s	but I think uh I've seen you all on
5584s	there um I think all the quali people
5587s	are just uh spamming Birds everywhere so
5592s	maybe uh the quali uh skin being bird
5597s	themed was bit of fan service maybe I
5600s	don't know y I'm not the one working for
5603s	mijan here yes anyway so what do you
5607s	think was there anything um M lump could
5611s	have done differently to to turn this
5614s	around and
5616s	win something different um I because my
5621s	Lampe did not have um full vision I
5623s	believe let quickly turn it off again
5626s	yeah M lamp did not have full vision um
5630s	but I think that's one option that he
5633s	didn't um
5635s	use is opening up a bridge right over
5638s	here so he might have so was wasn't
5641s	actually the bridge that he built a
5643s	mistake because he he did not capitalize
5645s	on those five stars that he spent there
5648s	um now when I'm thinking about this it's
5652s	like was it worth it
5655s	yeah
5659s	H he uh because if if he if he had done
5662s	this what maradon said that uh you know
5665s	The Siege on this on this contested City
5668s	on this small small island then yes I
5670s	would agree but if he did not pull uh
5674s	pull off that
5676s	Siege I it's like questionable this this
5679s	bridge play if I look at it um he might
5683s	have if he built a bridge over here and
5685s	a bridge over here then I think he could
5688s	have sieged the city while um while
5692s	going around this Warrior zone of
5694s	Defense so he might have missed an
5696s	opportunity there although to be fair we
5699s	have to keep in mind that these players
5701s	are playing the game um live they're
5703s	playing they are on a timer so yeah we
5706s	have to be yeah this is the sort of
5708s	thing that we might be able to find um
5711s	in a replay after analyzing the game
5715s	yeah in hindsight it's easy to to you
5717s	know say this or you do you should have
5720s	done this or that but yeah they are on
5721s	the timer so you don't always find the
5725s	the best place but yeah yeah and like I
5729s	really I keep repeating it this match is
5732s	exceptionally well played by both
5733s	players so I I don't really have
5737s	anything I can uh say that they should
5739s	have done better they should have done
5741s	differently they both they both deserve
5743s	this win a lot it's just that Force
5747s	barely managed to um pull out the head
5751s	and I win it was it a championship match
5753s	or was it just a
5755s	general that's just a general match
5758s	against each
5761s	other yeah you guys got any more
5763s	comments on this no I don't have any to
5766s	add I would also say you Z up
5770s	perfectly yeah really good one okay um
5774s	we got two more games although before I
5777s	put on the next one um I think I'm
5780s	quickly going to the toilets okay and
5783s	you guys chat for a moment yes could you
5787s	maybe uh maybe put it on the screen so
5789s	we just we just talk about the spawn yes
5793s	um I'll put on this
5797s	one open it up
5800s	yes
5801s	okay so
5804s	uh okay wow quite a different map this
5807s	time this is a bigger map okay all right
5811s	good luck guys thanks a lot you're free
5813s	to go
5815s	um all right uh so what would you say
5819s	about I would like to introduce the two
5821s	players first right uh I think it's kind
5824s	of respectful if we showcase people's
5827s	matches here and uh talk all kinds of
5829s	trash about them we should at least
5831s	credit them for it uh so the two players
5833s	for this game are Koka 2387 and Lorenzo
5838s	09 yeah again and Mar m match mhm and
5844s	and all right
5847s	uh different map type this time uh I'm
5851s	not entirely sure which one it is which
5853s	is kind of embarrassing uh I should know
5856s	I think it's
5859s	confence looks like it right with the
5861s	river in yeah I think it's continents
5864s	Okay small continents mhm so uh right
5868s	from the start I think this is going to
5870s	be a longer match than the last ones
5872s	we've seen just because of how far out
5874s	the players
5876s	are they're also on completely separated
5880s	Islands um iwise I think it's uh the
5883s	spawns are quite Fair both players have
5885s	uh four
5887s	villagers uh that they will probably
5889s	capture pretty easily I would say pink
5893s	has a slight Advantage right at the
5896s	start because of their Corner spawn and
5899s	the free population they got um but they
5902s	didn't get a cactus for so basically
5905s	pink got to save two stars right from
5907s	the beginning shouldn't make too much of
5909s	a difference but it's Sur nice to
5912s	have what would you say um I think this
5916s	looks like quite an interesting map um
5918s	with how you have this ocean on one side
5921s	and then a small River on the other end
5924s	so it's like it's it's a bit of a mix
5926s	between a river map and um and a sea map
5930s	so I think it will be interesting to see
5932s	how they develop into that but don't you
5934s	think that this is like a bugged map
5937s	because I don't think that it should be
5940s	possible that
5941s	the uh Pink uh spawns in in the corner
5947s	yeah um this thing
5948s	here that is actually um a bug that's
5952s	been going on for um a while I I don't
5955s	know how long we've had this bug but
5957s	yeah capitals are not supposed to spawn
5959s	in the
5960s	corner these days
5964s	April or March this year with the oh no
5969s	last year of last
5971s	year no no um we we had this one a while
5975s	back and it got fixed and quite recently
5977s	it um it came
5980s	back so a mysterious bug yeah so it came
5984s	back the deaths know about it they will
5987s	probably fix it because it's not
5989s	supposed to spawn like this like it
5990s	takes away your resources gives you the
5992s	extra population at start
5994s	I don't think they want this in the game
5996s	so but anyways in this case it's a bit
5999s	it's a bit Fair because the pink doesn't
6002s	have the second fruit so otherwise they
6004s	wouldn't be able to upgrade the their
6008s	Capital all right let's let's go go with
6011s	SH f for the
6016s	starts yeah so we finds the village
6019s	finds the
6021s	lighthouse and they go out to explore
6025s	you see here um they
6027s	immediately let's go back a little
6030s	bit
6033s	yellow I know okay okay
6037s	okay yeah right right right purple sorry
6040s	pink immediately goes for organization
6042s	because they have um the lighthouse
6044s	house here so they can actually upgrade
6047s	the turn are two turns sooner than
6049s	yellow
6051s	can meanwhile yellow has two riders that
6054s	are going out to explore together I
6057s	think this Rider here it only took one
6059s	step that might actually have been a
6061s	small misplay because I think he wanted
6064s	it to move all the way over here yeah I
6067s	also considered that one a misclick
6071s	m so
6073s	yeah I will have a lookout for uh this
6076s	game is how both players manage their
6078s	economy because I personally always
6080s	struggle to get a proper economy going
6082s	with umaji
6084s	and uh Pink magic going for organization
6087s	here so early instead of uh training a
6090s	second unit to explore quite a bold
6092s	choice in my opinion but definitely an
6095s	interesting one and I'll keep my eye on
6098s	how that goes for the next couple of
6100s	moves I I wouldn't recommend it on any
6102s	omagi start except like right here I
6106s	actually get a free population then
6108s	going for the early
6110s	economy sounds quite um quite good and
6113s	quite reasonable because you're only
6114s	delaying your second unit by one
6117s	turn and you get by one turn no okay by
6120s	two turns it's okay he is a bit slower
6123s	but he gets a lot of stars in return for
6126s	it let's see
6129s	oh see here the P one just moved off of
6133s	The Village I think that both sides have
6138s	been doing some misclicks at the start
6139s	here yeah because that that shouldn't
6143s	have
6146s	happen that's too bad really very early
6150s	Explorer and the Explorer goes towards
6153s	the corner H in the end it does actually
6156s	end up revealing quite a lot of
6158s	land um but yeah the Explorer this early
6162s	on on the contest map I'm not the
6164s	biggest fan of them although they can um
6166s	they can be good so he did in the end he
6169s	did reveal quite a lot but as you see at
6172s	the start it just got stuck on the Deep
6174s	water which not what you
6176s	[Music]
6178s	want right now yellow umaji upgrades his
6181s	Capital with the help of the lighthouse
6184s	which he went to
6186s	discover and I'd say exploration wise uh
6190s	Pinki is quite a step behind first of
6193s	all because he only trained one unit to
6195s	start with and second of all because
6197s	it's misclick which basically costs him
6199s	two
6200s	turns yeah so let's let's see how that
6203s	goes
6204s	he's also behind in economy at the
6206s	moment oh no it's not going to be
6209s	anymore after he captures this Village
6211s	so he was behind a little bit in economy
6214s	goes for a workshop so no explorers on
6216s	this side just goes straight for the
6219s	money oo a population ruin so this is
6223s	where I really really like early
6224s	population ruins because as you see it's
6227s	upgrades a capital the capital gets five
6229s	stars and furthermore he wants his
6231s	Capital to get big but he doesn't have
6234s	the right take to do it immediately so
6236s	because he found this population Rin he
6237s	not only gets the upgrad he also gets it
6241s	without needing aack for it so that's a
6243s	really really nice uh boost early
6248s	on let see oh oh yellow is already going
6252s	to the water that's really
6254s	early especially in anic game but let's
6257s	see how it plays out it does have some
6260s	good economy eight Stars per turn
6264s	if you guys remember the map from the be
6266s	beginning I think yellow omachi won't be
6268s	very happy with what he finds on the
6270s	water I mean there is one Village but
6273s	chances are it'll take him a while to
6274s	find it and both players uh have uh
6279s	probably noticed at this point that
6281s	there is a river separating the entire
6283s	map I think um I don't actually think
6286s	yellow Knows It wait yeah of
6289s	course um yeah he SE shorelines
6294s	yellow here has no clue at all yellow
6296s	just yeah pink yes yeah so pink probably
6301s	thinks it's uh it will be you know like
6303s	a water based map so he has to um you
6307s	know dominate on the on this
6310s	Lake yeah and actually we can see here
6314s	that yellow still hasn't bought
6316s	organization normally imperious players
6318s	go for organization really early on
6321s	yellow has decided not to do that um
6323s	because he wants to get to the water so
6325s	soon which on a continent map makes
6328s	sense and here we have
6330s	it and we get another
6335s	exploration and this one's actually
6337s	going to cross the river and reveal paji
6341s	so now yellow really knows how the game
6343s	is going to look they can uh start
6346s	preparing for a fight meanwhile pink is
6349s	just blissfully um saying to himself
6352s	doesn't know anything about what's
6353s	happening in the rest of the world and
6356s	is I mean of course he's probably
6358s	supposing what's happening right now
6360s	because he has basically discovered half
6362s	of the map and is probably aware that
6365s	yellow might be lurking in the shadows
6368s	somewhere and uh step out of the fog in
6370s	the couple of next turns because that's
6373s	basically always how it goes I think but
6376s	yeah uh yellow Mai definitely has an
6379s	advantage here with uh how much he sees
6382s	and I think there is also basically no
6385s	way that ping is going to take away
6387s	Naval superiority from yellow if yellow
6391s	decides to go full out on oceans and
6395s	battleships and all that kind of
6397s	stuff yeah because at the moment pink
6400s	still doesn't have fishing yellow has
6402s	two roughs in the water has two
6403s	different ports so yellow definitely is
6406s	ahead on the
6407s	water H yellow goes for ruin goes for
6410s	two Villages so yellow has two more nice
6413s	turns lined
6416s	up go for population and that means
6419s	we're almost going for
6421s	Giants um still yellow only has 11 Stars
6424s	per
6425s	turn meanwhile pink is sitting here at
6428s	the 14 Stars per
6430s	turn they're going for more ruins for
6433s	another City
6435s	upgrades yeah pink is really um another
6438s	upgrade so pink is really investing in
6440s	their economy and really trying to get
6441s	big soon
6443s	meanwhile yellow oh I think yellow is
6447s	actually going to get their first giant
6449s	here yes they
6450s	are so pink is a head in economy but
6453s	yellow gets a giant out
6458s	first and of course another
6461s	Explorer I I don't think yellow has
6463s	taken a single Workshop so
6468s	far oh and now yellow knows that there
6471s	is some land on the uh bottom middle of
6474s	the
6474s	map because that
6477s	Explorer discovered the land bridge and
6480s	it revealed the shoreline of what will
6483s	turn out to be another Village exactly
6487s	this one
6488s	here nice
6492s	call okay so pink um decides I don't
6496s	have enough economy I'm going for more
6498s	economy go straight for organization
6501s	right before capturing the village
6506s	yellow goes for another Explorer so we
6509s	really have those two um two opposite
6512s	philosophies clashing with each other
6514s	again against well clashing against each
6516s	other in this
6517s	one and the economy is actually quite
6520s	similar because yellow did get their um
6523s	their big city ah think finally finally
6527s	got fishing and got their first no their
6529s	second Explorer the other one just
6531s	didn't reveal too much
6534s	they do find the
6537s	lighthouse and they but the explor
6540s	doesn't really reveal much of uh yellow
6542s	cities right no it just that's kind of
6546s	unfortunate yeah pink still doesn't know
6548s	that uh yellow is building Navy he knows
6553s	where they are but yeah he doesn't it
6554s	can't really tell their pants from what
6557s	he seeing at the
6560s	moment that is a really really big
6564s	uh what's called again windmill here
6568s	yeah I think we're going are we getting
6569s	a second giant here no not yet still
6573s	let's take a look again at the economy
6576s	here turn so there was a
6579s	sneaky sneaky and we have a city snipe
6583s	yeah well it was briefly visible at
6585s	least uh happening in turn 11 oh yeah
6589s	right uh this must look super funny from
6593s	from uh pinki's perspective
6595s	unfortunately we can't see it because of
6597s	the way replay mode works I think uh but
6602s	those are the moments in polytopia where
6603s	you just slam your
6606s	desk actually um I think we can do it
6608s	let me quickly change it all right so
6611s	now we have a MAG view
6617s	here that hurts that really hurts uh
6621s	thanks for showing this
6623s	all right so let's uh go back to seeing
6626s	what yellow does so they slide in the
6628s	raft they um ah they find trait in the
6631s	ruin here the trait really useful Tech
6634s	you get a lot of stars the only thing is
6636s	to use traits you actually need to have
6639s	Sawmills sorry Sawmills windmills or
6642s	forges so um yeah they don't really have
6647s	any use for the de at the moment it
6649s	might be useful in the future but well
6651s	they first need to develop their
6654s	economy but they're going on the water
6657s	exploring with Scouts and just general
6660s	claiming a theas for
6664s	themselves which is a questionable
6666s	tactic after all I think because uh if
6668s	you look at the way the map is
6670s	structured I think a lot of the combat
6672s	is going to be taking place across this
6675s	uh River in the upper middle part and uh
6681s	Pink probably has enough presence in the
6684s	lower parts to be able to keep yellow's
6687s	Navy away from getting involved there
6690s	too heavily so uh yellow investing into
6693s	Navy might actually uh turn out bad for
6696s	them in the long
6698s	run yeah I'm also wondering about that
6701s	because like here you can see this here
6704s	is a potential bridge this is a
6706s	potential bridge this is a potential
6708s	Bridge so uh Pink has a lot of ways to
6712s	start roading the riders in here and
6714s	actually make this a land battle instead
6715s	of a sea
6716s	Battle um the one thing about this river
6720s	is that there's no real safe ORS F so
6724s	every single to here where um pink would
6726s	be able to build up a Navy yellow could
6729s	just smack it with their Riders so it is
6733s	definitely very interesting shape here
6735s	because it will stop all the ships both
6737s	being made here and coming from the
6740s	outside um but I'm not sure in who it
6743s	Advantage this one will
6748s	be all right
6750s	resources H FR strategy in a
6753s	[Music]
6755s	Ru of course and we're going for more
6759s	economy we want to be big I'm really
6762s	glad I said that in the beginning that I
6764s	wanted to be on the lookout for how
6766s	players manage their economy because uh
6769s	I think right here we can see quite
6771s	nicely how different play Styles turn
6773s	out with uh uh what's it called pink
6777s	going super heavy on their economy and
6780s	yellow pumping out units like
6782s	crazy and and if you look at the economy
6786s	24 Stars per
6788s	turn that's a big difference so economy
6792s	wise pink is way way
6794s	ahead but P does not have any control of
6798s	the
6801s	water meanwhile yellow this is not
6804s	shared Vision this is actually all
6806s	yellow's Vision they pretty much see the
6808s	entire
6810s	map and there's a giant coming
6813s	in still let's see um let's see where it
6816s	leaves
6820s	[Music]
6823s	usy yeah so in this case pink can quite
6827s	easily oh no they can't roll the giant
6829s	because they don't have the vision
6831s	that's a
6833s	that's a problem because I thought that
6835s	they might build a bridge and then roll
6837s	the giant to the other side but they
6840s	don't have the vision they could put a
6842s	giant on the bridge just not they rot it
6844s	across yeah but then it's you know it
6845s	takes two turns so um yellow has the
6849s	then has the time to to react that's
6852s	true it's always the surprise factor
6856s	that counts and of course why make
6858s	bridges when you can build a bigger city
6861s	yeah
6863s	yeah also I think uh this is the moment
6866s	where we can see how uh
6869s	effective uh yellow's strategy was to
6873s	pick uh one exp thrower after another
6876s	because yellow basically knows
6877s	everything about Pink's position and his
6879s	units and can plan uh their attacks and
6884s	where to strike them just as with the
6887s	giant here which for pink arrived
6888s	completely out of the blue and uh just
6891s	because pink had
6893s	has no vision and has no way to gain
6895s	Vision on the water which is where a lot
6897s	of yellow's units are so maybe yellow
6900s	might win this by uh surprise attacking
6903s	pink from the water from the left where
6905s	he might not expect
6907s	it let's see how it goes because yeah
6910s	pink yellow is now also getting the city
6912s	Advantage they have one more city than
6914s	um pink and there's no more cities left
6917s	so this yellow can actually start
6919s	building up um decent
6921s	economy and I think we're even going to
6923s	see a second second giant here no not
6927s	yet he doesn't have stars
6930s	yet yeah but ping definitely has to get
6933s	on water those you know get
6936s	jugut or they have to push uh towards
6940s	the center but he has to do
6943s	something well the one thing he does as
6946s	you said before um yellow got traed
6950s	which gives him markets but sadly he
6952s	doesn't have anywhere to put them pink
6956s	does have markets and pink really really
6958s	likes econ does have windmills and
6960s	really likes economy so think goes for
6962s	markets okay whoa nice oh
6966s	boy this one this single building here
6969s	will give him eight Stars per turn so
6971s	really big one still it did cost him his
6975s	entire turn and at the moment he isn't
6978s	really pushing or using his economy
6980s	meanwhile yellow ising passing an
6988s	army and another chance here so three
6992s	Giants at the moment for yellow let's um
6996s	before they actually start fighting
6998s	let's take a look at the
7000s	map so what do you what do you guys
7005s	think all
7007s	done uh well I would say there's
7011s	definitely been a lot of uh buildup to
7013s	this uh point in time both players have
7017s	been massively preparing and there's a
7020s	lot of uh unused potential I would say
7023s	or crammed energy waiting to be released
7027s	uh from all those units which yellow has
7029s	waiting on the shoreline and pink has
7032s	built up this massive economy which they
7034s	can hopefully use their advantage at
7037s	some point so far they haven't really
7039s	done that and uh for me personally I
7042s	can't really say if um Ping's Giants
7045s	will withstand the pressure and whether
7048s	ping can buy himself enough time so that
7050s	his economy Advantage will kick in uh
7053s	but right now to me it just looks like
7054s	pink is going to get overrun eventually
7057s	with all those rafts waiting to be
7059s	upgraded to rammers or Scouts um yeah I
7063s	think there is quite the battle at the
7065s	Horizon um but let's see how it goes I
7067s	would say what about you yeah I'm Al I
7070s	also think that's at this point it be
7072s	will become quite difficult for pink to
7075s	um get over the naal advantage that
7077s	yellow has I think Pink's biggest chance
7079s	now is um to use Bridges and to um go
7084s	from this side try to make it a land
7086s	battle rather than a sea Battle because
7089s	in the sea Battle they probably won't be
7091s	able to um get too many too much
7093s	presence anymore yeah so let's see what
7097s	they do yeah I see only Knights as an
7100s	option for for for pink or maybe you
7103s	know catapults from the in the
7105s	back or just more economy I mean that
7108s	also
7109s	works yes Eco always
7112s	wins oh yeah oh but he utilizes it for a
7115s	nice giant push yeah so that's
7118s	interesting one here because he pushes
7120s	the giant giant moves in this direction
7123s	and can get hit in on the other one
7125s	before it can actually do anything so
7127s	yeah the giant that landed here probably
7129s	not having the best day
7133s	yeah those giants so close to each other
7135s	they will be obliterated by the bombers
7139s	I think look at this difference here in
7141s	economy 43
7144s	Stars against 26 so that's the power of
7147s	Marcus right here his buildings really
7150s	really start
7152s	ticking let's see if it's
7158s	enough uh yellow is also making some
7161s	economy and I think yellow actually
7164s	yellow still has 21 Stars left on their
7167s	turn so I think yellow is planning
7170s	something big for the next one yeah it
7172s	looks like
7174s	it see 43
7178s	Stars we're getting more
7181s	economy 51 Stars per
7184s	turn but still not really any um any
7188s	water offense he does have double the
7190s	stars of his opponent though
7193s	but here we see yellow they just bought
7196s	themselves
7198s	navigation um so yeah navigation that
7200s	means starfish and it means
7206s	bombers yeah three bombers immediately
7210s	with the Giants coming in Hit and
7213s	suddenly it's looking a bit worse for
7216s	pink on this side I think pink is
7219s	starting to realize that he um he might
7222s	have made made a
7223s	mistake with waiting to get on the
7229s	water and we get on the water as
7233s	well and he still goes for more
7237s	economy or uh maybe he's not going for
7239s	the economy and just uh waiting to
7241s	upgrade his G uh still wow okay this guy
7245s	has
7248s	nerves no I think it's it's too late
7252s	20 56 Stars per turn he does actually
7255s	make more than double what his opponent
7257s	makes at at the
7259s	moment yeah but nothing to has an army
7264s	he has nothing to you know push back
7268s	against yellow's
7271s	Army yeah Giant on the land against
7276s	bombers not
7278s	ideal I fight any Knights he's going for
7281s	Knights now but I don't see how those
7283s	will be helping him especially as put a
7285s	p in the only where he could put a
7288s	bridge he screwed up the
7291s	only yeah but this this other this other
7293s	spot he screwed up putting a p Port
7296s	there yeah I mean unless he destroys the
7299s	port and puts he can still burn it down
7301s	that's not a not a big deal I
7303s	think let me just quickly check my
7306s	lighting settings because I think the
7307s	screen just went a little
7309s	bit a little bit darker um give me a
7318s	moment sorry about this
7321s	one all right it's better yeah well
7325s	maybe maybe we are you know like
7326s	trashing him and uh this could have been
7329s	a
7330s	good a good move to to put this part
7333s	because he got this necessary Vision
7336s	too yeah the vision was definitely
7338s	important here yeah so even even you
7340s	know like one or two tiles of vision was
7343s	was crucial to to do anything mhm yeah
7348s	so we get
7349s	a more bombers bombers really shelling
7352s	the Giants and the Giants not really
7354s	having much to
7356s	um much of an answer to it oh here the
7359s	Knight the first Knight comes across
7362s	starts killing the
7364s	ships so we might be getting a Our Land
7366s	Battle that that we were talking
7370s	about and let's see what's happening
7372s	here
7372s	here
7374s	another ooh that one might not have
7377s	actually been been
7379s	intended because if you look here the
7382s	knight's now in the water and it's not
7384s	going to be able to make a change so I
7386s	think that might have been a small
7389s	error yeah push is very important mhm to
7393s	see the land ble developing
7396s	here but giant almost dead and yeah he's
7399s	killed
7402s	still I think uh Pink is just playing uh
7405s	way too
7406s	defensively or I mean better said now
7409s	he's playing offense but I think he
7411s	should have started doing that uh five
7414s	turns ago or four turns ago and start
7417s	pressuring his opponent
7419s	more because
7421s	currently pink is sitting on a huge pile
7426s	of stuff and has nothing to protect it
7429s	basically yeah he he is starting to push
7432s	forward a little bit trying to get um
7434s	get vision from the from the mountains
7437s	and he finally sees the first bombers
7438s	actually he didn't have Vision on them
7440s	before so he's he's trying to do
7443s	something here gets another Super unit
7445s	but this time it's for a push so that's
7447s	really important and as we can see here
7451s	three Knights that is a lot of pressure
7453s	so he is really preparing to um go all
7456s	in over this uh from this direction here
7463s	and he gets cloaks but I would say this
7466s	is not the right
7469s	play yeah quite a questionable decision
7471s	in my opinion because what he needs
7473s	right now is strength on land
7477s	yeah yeah the CL will take a long time
7480s	to there no he might be trying to get
7482s	the cloaks there with the idea of the
7485s	cloaks being invisible not being
7486s	targetable by the
7488s	bombers actually this one and this is
7491s	the most important play of the entire
7493s	game if you look here how um yellow
7496s	ended their turn they ended their turn
7499s	with 23
7500s	Stars so that's quite a lot and we see
7504s	here that pink is building up this
7506s	massive Army of knights so the knights
7508s	the knights will start coming in and if
7511s	you look at Knights here they can reach
7514s	the bombers they can start to take down
7516s	Army to start taking up the pressure if
7518s	the bombers go down he can start making
7520s	some ships over here um he has his
7523s	Giants protecting so Knights here might
7525s	actually be able to turn the ties no I I
7528s	would build trees and then the knights
7530s	are useless right I would grow trees I
7534s	see like the it's quite easy to to block
7537s	the knights and that is exactly what
7539s	yellow does so yellow with the Stars he
7542s	saved from last turn now yellow has 53
7546s	Stars he buys hunting archery and
7549s	spiritualism and he builds a single tree
7551s	over here
7552s	mhm he spent 53
7555s	stars all of that on building a single
7557s	tree he doesn't have a single star left
7560s	but that Single Tree over here means
7562s	that purple's Knights can no longer
7565s	cross over that Single Tree here the 53
7568s	Stars he spent means that these Knights
7570s	are now basically useless they can't do
7572s	anything against the bombers anymore so
7575s	really really good play by yellow really
7578s	well thought out um he PL he plant this
7580s	ahead of time think he was saving his
7583s	resources from the previous term and so
7586s	this play is really um crazy most
7590s	important thing that happened in this
7592s	entire game in my opinion yeah what an
7595s	exting a creative way to utilize uh the
7600s	terrain this was on the request of one
7602s	of the the viewers so yeah this to turn
7606s	20 was was really crucial
7609s	yeah um so yeah we see here think is
7612s	still trying let keep a bit a few turns
7615s	and see because it's it took us a long
7617s	time to to get to turn 20 I thought
7620s	there was more action in
7623s	between uh right let's move on ahead so
7626s	yeah we see here pink has um has control
7628s	over the city it's trying to attack the
7630s	city here but so many ships in the water
7633s	it's not going to stick meanwhile yellow
7635s	is actually managing to take over the
7637s	city here in the
7638s	Sid um the Riders are not able the
7641s	knights not able able to do anything
7642s	here and the lone giant here well just
7645s	standing there the single other Port
7648s	spots uh sorry um the last Bridge spot
7652s	over here on
7655s	starfish try to think about it but
7657s	there's a giant standing on it so yellow
7660s	already saw hey I'm going to put a giant
7661s	here I'm not going to be surprised by
7663s	that and basically blocking it off
7667s	another uh th again for giant te but
7672s	yeah it doesn't really matter the
7673s	bombers are just too strong and I think
7675s	from here on the game is pretty much
7678s	over we see uh See pink trying to
7681s	struggle a a little bit yeah he KN tack
7684s	with a cloak
7686s	but yeah um let me just turn off the
7690s	[ __ ] yeah the bombers are bombers are
7692s	too important at this point the game is
7695s	basically over right I mean yeah pink is
7698s	fighting back a little but they've lost
7701s	their economy Advantage uh m mostly and
7705s	are just getting crushed right now all
7708s	they have on the field is just couple
7710s	catapults and cou
7711s	cloaks yeah think tries one L gambits
7714s	they have a cloak over here and if he
7717s	keep ahead a few turns we see the cloak
7720s	in the
7721s	back the cloak moves forward and
7724s	actually gets all the way to yellow's
7727s	Capital
7728s	Jesus did he manage that for uh for pink
7734s	yellow still has unit around and I mean
7737s	it doesn't matter anymore if yellow
7739s	would have gone all in on the offense
7740s	and hadn't made any Knights this might
7742s	have actually won him the game but well
7745s	pink knew it
7747s	was yeah
7750s	unfortunate yeah that's
7754s	uh yeah so this thiss out right uh no
7759s	one resigns here right uh just uh gets
7763s	destroyed eventually yeah pink gets
7765s	destroyed and pink um I think pink
7768s	basically just B their entire their
7769s	entire Army and just has like hey come
7771s	on take it
7773s	yeah man what a tragedy I was really
7777s	rooting for pink on this one I'm GNA be
7779s	honest with you I mean economy is strong
7782s	but economy won't win you the game if
7784s	the opponent has a fleet of bombers
7787s	yeah yeah so they they waited too too
7790s	long for for for that
7793s	um and building like you said building
7796s	uh too much economy is is not not a good
7800s	idea economy is important but you have
7802s	to actually use
7804s	it so let's jump to to the last game
7807s	because maradon has a limited time right
7811s	so we would like to see the last game
7814s	together the last game is one with um
7818s	two really really good players as well
7820s	let's stop it right here
7822s	the last game has
7825s	arter and belly actually I don't know no
7829s	it's it's it's a different letter I uh I
7833s	did c a l y l it's like U but it's
7838s	from some language that I don't know so
7842s	it's like cic right yeah or maybe yeah
7846s	it's it's Relic yeah I I don't know it's
7848s	like you looks like you but um I I don't
7852s	know yeah so let's say yeah so well um
7857s	deal is it deal
7859s	dealan deal deal Mai I don't actually
7863s	know them I but I know Arthur Arthur is
7865s	a really really good player and um as we
7868s	will see in this match deal is able to
7871s	um to put up a very strong fight against
7874s	Arthur so they are also a really good
7876s	player even though I don't know them
7879s	personally these are two top contenders
7883s	yeah we have a dry lens map mhm at the
7885s	map here um how does it look we have
7890s	quite a lot of villages actually these
7892s	are more than pretty even M yeah I would
7895s	say it looks like a pretty even
7897s	start let's turn on the [ __ ] make it
7900s	shared and let's go and we have entered
7903s	the umaji heaven on
7906s	drylands I think we're going to go a bit
7909s	quickly to the earli stages
7918s	all
7920s	right back here um just to have them
7923s	together to allow them to leap over each
7926s	other to explore more quickly rather
7928s	than having the rider in the front where
7930s	it might get killed by
7932s	opponents so he's clearly going for um
7935s	expansion and not for early combat is
7938s	there a village down down there in the
7940s	center uh here you mean prob
7945s	right
7946s	yeah three villages in the center wow
7950s	really crammed map comparison to the
7952s	last
7954s	ones getting an Explorer oh here gets a
7958s	really really nice vision of the center
7960s	yeah so I'd say that there was the first
7963s	um kind of mistake that they uh went for
7966s	this Western Village not the yeah Center
7969s	arur did give up a lot of control in the
7971s	center
7972s	H and I think you have enough Vision to
7975s	turn off the shared
7977s	fog they you still hasn't met yellow Mai
7982s	at the moment
7984s	yeah but it's probably going to be a
7987s	question of the
7989s	time until yeah oh he doesn't Discover
7993s	them yet but now he knows uh his
7995s	opponent uh is in the center on the left
7999s	side
8001s	yeah yeah and he probably will go try
8004s	and discover him
8006s	now this is this is also a really nice
8009s	Explorer there's only one way it can go
8012s	straight into the center of uh where his
8014s	opponent
8016s	[Music]
8018s	is and he discovers the capital and
8021s	actually oh goes all the way to the
8024s	lighthouse that's a good one and I think
8026s	we see another Explorer yeah so he moves
8029s	his rider back just to clear the [ __ ]
8031s	back so that the Explorer can only go
8035s	forward yeah but he missed his village
8038s	that's so
8040s	funny
8042s	yeah single covered in F
8047s	okay gonna be where it
8050s	is but yeah both players have well
8053s	especially deal deal has really good
8055s	Vision at the moment he knows a lot of
8058s	undiscovered
8059s	Villages he knows where his
8062s	is he's feeling quite
8066s	good yellow starting to amess some
8070s	units lots of slapping units into each
8074s	other I mean okay what are you to expect
8077s	from uh umaji 1 V one on island but
8080s	still uh in
8082s	comparison of the beautiful strategies
8085s	we saw in the last games this is kind of
8087s	a let out right
8089s	now yeah but there are some Warriors
8092s	already so we have variety of units
8096s	already and we're getting a lot of units
8099s	here in the middle just look at the
8102s	number of units that um deal is a
8104s	messing deal is behind in Stars at the
8106s	moment 11 Stars per turn with four
8109s	Villages meanwhile yellow has 140 Stars
8113s	per turn with their four Villages so at
8115s	the moment yellow is ahead um economy
8117s	wise and yellow also gets their first
8120s	Giant on turn eight quite good as a
8123s	magi going for a monument and if you
8126s	look here this city I think is ready to
8129s	make another giant soon as
8132s	well souran all the way in the
8135s	back slightly Mis um yeah mhm and he
8141s	still only has riding in organization so
8144s	really went all in on units on
8146s	exploration and isn't really too
8148s	concerned with economy which I mean I
8151s	guess is quite um quite a common
8154s	strategy for umaji
8157s	players oh he's um moving in his unit
8160s	sing
8162s	mhm and I think the siege here um looks
8165s	like the main purpose of the siege is
8167s	actually to make sure that yellow has to
8169s	focus their units on Siege so that
8171s	yellow doesn't come in and try to stop
8173s	the village capture let's see if it uh
8176s	if it works
8181s	here they
8183s	go yeah yellow decides okay take the
8186s	village there's too many many units
8188s	there I can't to anything against us oh
8190s	man having a night down there would just
8192s	be amazing they borrow growth they they
8195s	did borrow growth
8197s	to this Village so we stole basically
8201s	five five population from the village
8203s	that's a really good one as well and I
8205s	mean border gr like this in center of
8207s	the map with Magi that will just take
8209s	away so many Road options for deal so
8212s	just border gr a really really really
8215s	strong play yeah I would be so pissed if
8217s	someone did that to me
8221s	[Music]
8223s	honestly playing competitively because
8225s	it's just so much people are being so
8227s	mean to each other like yeah oh my God
8230s	calm down
8232s	dude yeah amazing play got to admit
8238s	that and both sides have so many units
8241s	at the
8242s	moment
8244s	yeah all sitting
8248s	ready but neither of them is really
8251s	committing neither's going forward
8252s	because I know well because riders with
8256s	roads if their units can attack and
8258s	Retreat back out of range you're just
8260s	advancing for nothing you're just giving
8262s	up fre kills so they're kind of a it
8264s	looks like they're both waiting to see
8266s	what can I do what's uh what are my
8268s	options yeah but teal has to you know
8271s	kind of speed up
8275s	their their economy yeah growth because
8278s	otherwise you know the yellow already
8281s	has two giants
8283s	so yeah but take a look at this deal
8286s	does have one two three four five six
8289s	seven
8290s	Villages and how many stars per turn are
8293s	they ending with they're oh they got
8295s	their first giant as well mhm so they
8298s	end with seven Villages and 18 stars per
8300s	turn
8302s	meanwhile yellow here only five Villages
8305s	but they do still have 19 19 Stars per
8307s	turn so yellow is still ahead in economy
8310s	even though deal has so many more
8315s	Villages still well the villages will
8318s	keep growing right So
8321s	eventually that will become a problem
8324s	another Explorer really nice one getting
8326s	all the vision over here will it get the
8329s	lighthouse no no
8333s	points some more traes betterer
8335s	swordsman going down is nothing against
8337s	the the might of the omaji hamu so te
8341s	actually has the Explorers Monument
8344s	right he yes does yeah that's true they
8348s	got all four corners yeah real nice
8353s	one still 14 Stars
8356s	P I personally really like the addition
8358s	of lighthouses to the game because the
8361s	Explorer Monument was basically
8363s	unachievable before that and now you
8365s	know this this can actually happen and
8367s	going for explorers to get another
8369s	Monument can be a viable strategy in
8372s	some Yep
8374s	this good point
8376s	mhm yeah I also love how they give like
8379s	these mini objectives um to the
8382s	[Music]
8383s	game so the Riders are starting to push
8386s	in I think is he going for a
8389s	Siege yeah Siege with the
8391s	veteran veteran Rider I mean
8395s	it's but I mean I think if you look at
8399s	it uh over here yellow is just putting
8402s	on so much pressure like there's a giant
8404s	next to the middle City giant next to
8406s	this city there's a federan sourceman of
8408s	this city that he has to deal with so I
8411s	think he's basically trying to take away
8413s	attention towards the city here in the
8415s	southwest to make sure that the other
8417s	two cities are open and that he can
8419s	steal one of those
8422s	and he goes for
8425s	economy with 21 Stars per turn against
8430s	only 15 stars turn for the opponent
8432s	because there's one under siege so
8434s	yellow is actually quite ahead on the
8437s	economy Army wise deal does look
8440s	slightly ahead
8443s	though but they have only one giant so
8446s	that's they do have only one Giants
8451s	just look at all those units and yeah as
8454s	you said before a KN here would have so
8457s	much fun yeah I wonder why they aren't
8460s	going for Knights right now I would uh
8463s	probably research free spirit right now
8467s	the thing is KN Stars 33 Stars quite
8471s	expensive um the first Knight will cost
8473s	about a star on top of that so that
8475s	means 41 Stars before they have a KN so
8478s	that would mean that yellow would have
8480s	to give up do full turns of unit
8482s	production just for a single night and
8485s	yeah I'm not saying they should get it
8486s	like right now but uh I would start
8488s	preparing for nights because also the
8490s	opponent isn't expecting it and maybe I
8494s	drain my unit Supply a bit but I'll get
8496s	a lot in return if you look at um Teal's
8500s	Vision I think deal can kind of expect
8502s	all the units
8503s	yellow yeah you can't surprise them so
8506s	obviously you know uh it would have okay
8508s	that's a valid point I I forgot looking
8511s	at shared fog right now it would have
8514s	been hard to to space out the the units
8517s	but yeah mhm yeah no no no surprise with
8522s	the number of units here if you spend
8524s	two full turns not making anything you
8526s	will just get completely overrun so I
8528s	think both players are actually thinking
8529s	about getting KN is just really not
8532s	achievable at this point in the
8535s	game so we'll see where they are
8538s	going oh um
8541s	yellow did not Siege this city here um
8544s	probably because he saw how many units
8546s	there were here and with this many units
8548s	it takes 10 units 10 Warriors to kill a
8551s	Giants this here is enough to kill a
8554s	Giants so he probably thought nope let's
8556s	not do this let's not give up my giant
8559s	and instead he's putting more pressure
8561s	towards the South trying to zone out all
8563s	the units in the
8566s	Northeast getting more resources
8572s	yeah just putting on pressure but not um
8576s	not committing
8583s	anything just another Giant
8588s	M yeah I think he's hoping to I mean
8592s	yellow he's hoping to he was hoping the
8597s	this Rider died to get this lighthouse
8599s	in the south
8602s	oh so uh deal finally actually starts um
8606s	starts growing their economy as well
8609s	with so many cities to grow they do have
8611s	quite a lot of
8614s	potential so let's look at their Stars
8616s	per turn at the end of this turn and see
8618s	where they actually get they start
8620s	attacking the
8621s	Giants like it's just one unit after the
8624s	other is
8625s	dying but as I said 10 units 10 Warriors
8630s	or Riders can kill a giant and deal has
8633s	more than enough units to get that on so
8635s	the giant that was sitting here just
8637s	gets completely obliterated by all the
8639s	units and well steal doesn't really care
8641s	because steal has so many spare units
8645s	left wow brutal yeah yellow doesn't
8649s	really have um is not really in a
8651s	position to capitalize on it they don't
8653s	have units around here to push in and
8656s	take advantage so really nice play by
8658s	Teal here just seeing the Giants as
8662s	um as being weak as being alone and
8665s	bouncing on
8667s	it in the meantime teal has 26 Stars per
8672s	turn yellow only 24 so teal is actually
8674s	pulling ah heads in the economy
8681s	G yeah and they are going on on the
8684s	offensive in the in the north
8688s	so they are doing a little bit of a push
8691s	with The Swordsman
8693s	mhm and more so in the front I think was
8697s	it 26 as well yeah yeah both sides have
8701s	have equal eony at the
8704s	moment but de is going for more of
8708s	course yeah I think in at some point
8711s	Knights will be necessary in this game
8713s	because otherwise it's I don't see any
8716s	side uh you know making like a real push
8718s	because you have to get rid of
8721s	many units at
8725s	uh at the same
8728s	time look here um yellow does still have
8731s	um actually the number of giants is
8733s	equal yellow is really using their
8735s	Giants to um hold back the army with the
8738s	way these chant are
8740s	spaced two spaces in between units can't
8743s	pass pass through this so they're
8745s	basically protecting the entire back
8747s	line just two of them
8752s	Archer is going for more Giants more
8755s	population
8756s	growths now that he has his his
8758s	windmills he's going to use them and
8759s	he's going to try to build up a big army
8763s	that's he can't just um keep throwing
8766s	unit sets but here
8768s	again just keep throwing units into it
8771s	and the giant is going
8774s	down that's also the thing right if all
8777s	those units are sitting here in the
8778s	backline and they don't have any valid
8780s	targets there's not much point in
8782s	keeping them around without doing
8784s	anything better to use them to take down
8786s	the Giants because what else are G to do
8793s	yep the riders in the back they are
8797s	safe and another Giant in the
8801s	right yeah he decides to push back again
8805s	so with how far we are at the moment
8807s	what do you guys think about this game
8811s	M it's a bit of you know like a back and
8813s	forth but I like the the sides are on
8817s	their places and like I I don't see any
8821s	any any way for any of them to to make a
8825s	real push like I said it's it has to be
8828s	night probably uh
8831s	to uh you know some unit that like is
8834s	really threatening and might change the
8837s	the balance uh yeah
8840s	yeah I'm personally also not a huge fan
8843s	of this game it's in my opinion it's
8845s	super chaotic and uh a lot of uh just
8848s	brood Force units slapping into each
8851s	other um I find it interesting how the
8855s	Giants uh control the game Dynamic right
8859s	here and there is some sort of
8862s	positional game play to this I think
8865s	which I don't understand really um but
8869s	uh I think this game is going to be
8871s	turned around by some unit probably
8874s	knights in the near future and I can't
8877s	yet tell which side is going to be the
8879s	one ending up on
8881s	top me neither it's uh it's get could go
8885s	either way and both players are really
8888s	um putting in a lot of effort and just
8891s	keeping the unit safe keeping making
8893s	sure they don't give any grounds
8895s	nobody's
8896s	overextending um but yellow here at this
8899s	point decides okay
8901s	I'm actually behind in economy I have
8902s	five cities my opponent has seven cities
8905s	um so yellow decides to do something
8908s	about it yellow goes for markets so
8910s	because they are in a relativ safe
8912s	position here okay um well as opposed to
8917s	the player in the last game uh here
8919s	yellow does actually have a big army to
8921s	back it up so yellow made sure they were
8924s	in a position where they are safe enough
8926s	to be able to afford to um invest in
8929s	economy
8931s	yeah with these two markets here both
8934s	really um do really big ones as well I
8936s	think this one is a four stars Market
8939s	this one is a Seven Stars market so
8941s	together these two buildings give 11
8943s	Stars that's a quite big jump in income
8947s	and I think there he can build some more
8948s	markets as well in the future and comp
8951s	the last game where uh the pink player
8954s	was just pushing his economy way too far
8958s	I think here the markets actually are
8960s	what Saves the Day for yellow Mii at
8963s	least for now because here they make
8965s	sense City
8967s	disadvantage for which he has to compare
8970s	I come up with
8972s	[Music]
8973s	something we see just even more unit
8977s	smacking units smacking into
8979s	Giants four yellow Giants are getting
8981s	that's crazy I mean that's really what
8984s	you had to expect from such a game
8986s	right yeah but I'm surprised that that
8989s	yellow doesn't do that that much
8993s	uh I think part of it is just that um
8996s	deal has more units yellow can only make
8998s	five units a turn deal can make seven
9000s	units a turn so it's easier for deal to
9004s	build an army of um cheap units that
9007s	they can throw away
9010s	sure interesting here another H yeah
9013s	he's going for a l m with border
9018s	growth that's yeah even though he's he's
9020s	keeping up his units in the meantime he
9022s	is also building markets so he's um he's
9025s	going for the long run yeah but this up
9028s	in economy which is quite notable where
9031s	judging by the fact he's down to
9034s	cities yeah his economy is really really
9036s	big at the moment but teal is starting
9039s	to push like deal notices that yellow
9042s	got a little bit slower in his unit
9046s	production and uh deal is trying to take
9049s	advantage of that
9051s	yeah this Center and northern part they
9054s	look quite vulnerable at the moment yeah
9057s	and yellow also has a lot of low HP
9060s	units around in the back which can't
9062s	really do much but take up a lot of
9064s	space in his cities um I don't know if
9068s	he'll if you'll just heal that yeah okay
9070s	he heals all of them right
9074s	now that's so much pressure on here
9077s	starting to get to the back line just
9079s	trying to be be annoying trying to um to
9081s	block
9084s	things so even though deal is um quite
9087s	be hard as stars they make up up for it
9090s	just by spamming units so many units
9092s	that uh yellow has to deal
9097s	with and as you can see here he just
9100s	keeps throwing in his units but it's not
9102s	enough to take down the Giants because
9104s	he he just doesn't have anything else
9107s	any more units he can throw in there
9110s	he does go for uh more economy well
9113s	that's the thing right at the moment
9115s	with um with his markets he has so much
9118s	economy that he can actually afford to
9120s	build units in all cities without
9122s	problems while also going for more TX
9125s	mhm while also improving going for more
9128s	Giants going for Border growths TX are
9131s	spectacularly cheap for uh yellow Mari
9135s	right
9135s	now due to the fact he only has five
9139s	cities but manages to get up a
9141s	staggering 46 economy from that he's
9145s	able to research uh at least three tier
9148s	two TXS at the in one turn and still
9150s	train some units uh which is something
9152s	to keep our eye on I think for the next
9154s	couple
9156s	turns yeah I think that's going to be
9158s	yellow's only real oh actually see feel
9161s	here but green grabs Knights
9165s	first green had from previous turn he
9168s	had saved 21 Stars
9171s	brings them into the next
9173s	turn and yeah he goes um all in and
9177s	makes a single Knight and a warrior on
9180s	this
9181s	turn yeah de really decided to
9185s	commit but yellow doesn't have any
9187s	Knights yet to punish him so de can
9190s	still keep putting on the
9195s	pressure with chants over here in the
9197s	middle as well
9204s	a siege for now that's that's
9205s	interesting could you go back a bit uh
9208s	of course two teals uh a
9212s	turn 19
9215s	yeah um yeah and
9222s	play mhm yeah and could you play it
9231s	yeah that's interesting that he did not
9232s	Siege this Northern City because yeah he
9236s	had what deal does not have climbing oh
9239s	doesn't have climbing okay and deal went
9241s	all in and buying um yeah the KN yeah I
9244s	I did not pay attention I thought he he
9246s	had climbing already don't worry I ran
9249s	into the same I I got the same
9251s	impression the first time I watched this
9253s	thing like wait why is he not doing that
9255s	yeah yeah
9257s	m still now I'm wondering uh why didn't
9261s	yellow use the Stars he had in this turn
9264s	to invest into Knights I mean he sees
9268s	the barrage of uh enemy uh units that is
9273s	coming and they're
9274s	mostly uh low cost units so uh I think
9278s	yeah there's a continuous night chain
9280s	through most of uh purpl not purples
9284s	imoc color units um but uh he couldn't
9288s	spread them out uh enough I think to
9291s	disable that entirely so I think just
9293s	training a knight maybe even the city in
9295s	the back left would have been enough
9296s	this turn to end the offense right over
9300s	here um yeah I'm not sure because a
9303s	knight here would not have allowed him
9305s	to um to stop the attack on the city
9308s	here I think actually I'm not sure
9310s	swordman will either well at least it's
9313s	a huge threat to the entire uh amount of
9316s	units stationed in the South and the
9319s	middle so because they probably had some
9322s	reason for it yeah at this point yellow
9326s	is pretty much overwhelmed with with
9328s	those you know Riders and warriors we
9331s	don't know how much time they had at
9332s	this point although I think they they're
9334s	probably playing playing fast enough
9336s	well let's see it's indeed at this point
9340s	getting Knights would definitely have
9341s	been um been a good
9345s	choice but I but I do think that um I
9348s	also really like yellow's play here
9350s	we'll see in the next turn I'm not going
9352s	to I'm not going to say too much but
9355s	yellow
9356s	is setting up something big
9361s	okay by the way look at the stars
9364s	here yellow
9367s	has 52 Stars mm again steals
9372s	34 he went swordsman
9375s	mhm because he sees them Knights
9382s	see the Giants here in the back just
9384s	getting
9387s	clobbered using the knights as well on
9389s	the
9390s	attack keeps hitting them starts hitting
9393s	the other
9393s	one still just has so many units to um
9396s	to burn feel like a broken record like a
9400s	broken record but just keep sending them
9403s	in so the two full held Giants that were
9406s	standing here behind the city with one
9408s	KN and just Riders and um Warriors he
9412s	brought them down who single 13 Health
9415s	Giants so yeah this one is going uh this
9419s	is a sieg that is actually looking quite
9422s	solid
9424s	[Music]
9426s	mhm at the moment he starts making
9429s	Knights Riders just general units now at
9432s	this point and this is thing that I
9434s	really really like about um about this
9437s	game this
9438s	is um definitely my favorite play let's
9441s	um let's first just play and look what
9444s	happens then we can go back can you
9446s	switch to could you switch to to Yellow
9449s	it is yellow uh yeah but the the ah yeah
9453s	so yeah he has the they just have a lot
9455s	of vision yeah mhm doesn't have the full
9459s	vision yeah right
9462s	[Music]
9472s	so what just happened
9475s	here yeah so he he destroyed one farm
9481s	and wow and
9484s	went mines and uh and managed to just to
9490s	squeeze out the giant push at the just
9492s	last time
9494s	and Monument or there wasn't any
9497s	Monument I don't think he actually used
9499s	any monuments however if we're looking
9501s	here at the
9502s	cities um he does
9506s	have so yellow um he couldn't put the
9509s	mine down here because there's his um
9512s	his windmill in the way so yellow first
9515s	decides to research free spirit and
9517s	chivalry chivalry allows him to destroy
9519s	destroy buildings so yellow calculated
9522s	this all out keep in mind this is a live
9524s	game y saw his City saw a city that
9527s	needed seven more population and decided
9530s	yeah I can do this no
9533s	problem so he researched all those
9537s	sticks destroyed um some of his
9540s	population so now he even less
9541s	population left and then he starts this
9543s	baning units because it doesn't have
9546s	enough stars to pull it off so he starts
9548s	disbanding units disbands the 13 Health
9551s	giant um disbands some Riders here in
9553s	the
9554s	back and then starts building up his
9556s	economy again get so wild and then puts
9561s	the windmill that used to be over here
9562s	puts it over here and just barely gets
9568s	right up to the point that he has enough
9571s	economy to get a giant push done so this
9573s	I wish we could see the time controls on
9575s	these plays how many how much time they
9577s	had left those would have been even more
9580s	fascinating I think but wow what a play
9582s	thank you for pointing out and
9584s	explaining that yeah yeah like I the
9586s	moment I saw this play in the replay
9588s	it's like wow this guy really just
9591s	pulled his
9593s	off and so well he's still not in the
9596s	best position but just for this play
9599s	this was really worthed for
9603s	me yeah we're getting a we're getting
9605s	more nice
9606s	here yeah I mean it was a great play but
9610s	uh let's be honest the position isn't
9613s	great for yellow right now at all yeah
9616s	well still he doesn't have um not enough
9619s	to actually get the siege off and keep
9621s	in mind yellow now has chivalry so
9624s	yellow can actually start making knights
9625s	with all their money okay so now could
9627s	you switch to te's Vision so is is is
9630s	there any any c that he doesn't see no
9634s	both basically see the entire map
9644s	okay and what are we getting here yeah
9646s	so just Knight all the way in the back
9650s	and why not getting a bit more
9654s	economy but deal will be um looks like
9659s	is it's going to take down this giant
9661s	takes down this giant the defender here
9664s	as
9664s	well um I think he can
9668s	still un sieg this
9671s	thing depending on what the how T puts
9674s	their
9675s	units that's going to be a difficult one
9684s	yeah okay so with riders that's going to
9686s	be enough so it takes under Giants but
9689s	barely enough just to get the one giant
9691s	that was Hing the city out of
9694s	there yeah stilles killing the other one
9698s	at the moment the pressure that de had
9702s	had built with all the Giants there
9704s	that's is pretty much gone of course at
9706s	the moment deal has a big army of
9709s	knights so the danger is still there but
9712s	the big pressure that was um that was on
9714s	there he managed to barely survive that
9715s	part mhm well let's first see if he
9719s	survives this lost
9721s	Giant and so Arthur yellow is using his
9724s	economy to make even more Giants at the
9727s	moment to be honest with 63 Stars per
9729s	turn but only five cities to make unit
9732s	from he's never going to be able to use
9734s	the economy on just units I mean the
9737s	most he can spend is uh 40 Stars which
9740s	would give him five nights so he has he
9745s	always has at least 23 Stars he has to
9747s	spend on other things it's probably
9749s	going to go into some economy or into um
9754s	so sorry into some Dex or into things
9757s	into economy to make Giants to help him
9760s	defend yeah he has a lot of stars but he
9765s	might actually have too like stars that
9768s	he can't really use anymore because he
9769s	do of cities to use them
9772s	[Music]
9776s	in yeah Knight attack
9781s	here let's see o going all the way into
9784s	the
9785s	back okay that's a tough one for yellow
9791s	omachi and he even manages to Siege the
9794s	city oh
9796s	wow things are
9798s	crumbling oh
9800s	the Giants all come in
9802s	together let's see can he actually Siege
9805s	this
9807s	one um I no I don't think he can so he
9812s	destroys the entire
9815s	thing makes another giant over here just
9817s	because he has DARS to spare anyway mhm
9820s	so yeah
9822s	um this de is is that the
9825s	game um the game goes on for
9829s	a bit longer I think umaji is still able
9832s	Sor well I think yellow is still able to
9834s	claim City back um but from
9837s	here overall the game just goes downhill
