0s | hey y'all Toby here welcome to the |
---|---|
2s | politopia official Channel today we will |
5s | be reviewing the Battle Royale between |
6s | the polyopia content creators including |
9s | mijan himself hello mijan how's it going |
12s | all it's good how are you I'm doing all |
15s | right I'm actually excited to look over |
17s | your viewpoints of the Battle Royale |
19s | that we just finished playing a little |
21s | while ago and I look forward to being |
23s | able to discuss that all right without |
25s | further Ado let's get to it so we played |
28s | a game with how many were we like five |
30s | players uh six players so and uh six |
33s | player so and you and me got to face off |
38s | right quickly on our own little |
40s | continent here so let's let's have a |
41s | look at that how that went and this is |
44s | my view I'm hudrick yep so this is going |
48s | to be exclusively following mij W's uh |
51s | Viewpoint they are playing as the purple |
54s | hudrick uh somewhat in the center of the |
59s | map yeah |
61s | so one question yeah one question I had |
64s | is the direction choice of your early |
68s | Archer of what was this the original |
71s | path you're intending your Archer to |
75s | go yeah I guess I mean it looks like I'm |
79s | I'm a very doing a very aggressive play |
83s | that day I was probably in aggressive |
86s | mode or something so I just wanted to |
89s | like quickly |
90s | get vision of the continent and see if I |
92s | could like get something because I know |
95s | it was kind of a cramp so probably just |
97s | one or or two Villages available so but |
101s | I mean it's always dangerous to move out |
102s | with a Archer like that or kri in the |
105s | beginning if you know |
107s | there's opponents around there y luckily |
110s | there's no signs of any opponents so no |
114s | all I changed my mind there is actually |
116s | signs of an opponent so M immediately |
119s | afterwards this is actually me I playing |
122s | as the yellow |
124s | omagi uh or the with the Condor |
127s | skin and immediately you're seeing that |
130s | I've already claimed this village and |
132s | we're neighbors with each |
133s | other |
135s | mhm what were the first I mean this |
137s | could have been been the other way |
139s | around so it could have been like you |
142s | being in the left there and in that case |
145s | this would have been a really good setup |
147s | for me so I think this is actually also |
149s | a little bit bad luck that the Archer |
151s | got in front and the the warrior in the |
154s | back but let's |
156s | see so right over here I do end up uh |
160s | letting you know of my existence I |
163s | actually had no idea cuz if we very |
165s | briefly just switch over to my |
167s | view I don't even know you're |
170s | there so this this part was not |
173s | intentional it's more so I moved uh |
176s | forward and I got drastically spooked |
178s | after an explorer |
181s | and found that you already had an Archer |
184s | right there so that was not actually |
185s | intended for me to hit the |
192s | Archer so I'm sacrificing my Archer |
194s | there for whatever would come out of |
197s | that ruin so again I'm playing a very |
199s | aggressive game here just trying to like |
201s | move forward really quickly and see if I |
203s | could like trample you in some way like |
206s | surprise you put pressure on you early |
208s | on absolutely just imagine how different |
210s | this game could have gone if that was a |
212s | swordsman instead of a instead of a tech |
216s | out of that |
217s | ruin I I would have had to been on the |
220s | uh back burner the entire time in |
221s | playing defensive from uh step |
224s | one so I go ahead and accept your |
229s | trade and right over here you're now |
231s | seeing your third |
233s | Village and picks up an explore for |
238s | yourself and with here at least from my |
241s | viewpoint this is very terrifying to see |
244s | as a as a hudrick player uh already see |
247s | a lot of riders right there at your |
251s | doorstep yeah but I got them as well |
254s | yeah I don't really remember why why |
255s | going down the the rider path here I |
259s | mean as you said we talked about before |
262s | I mean |
264s | um uh Warriors in in in for with the |
269s | defense bonus is really good |
271s | good counter for for your Riders but I |
276s | mean again I wanted to move |
278s | quickly yep including a good another |
281s | aggressive play so here you are |
283s | continuing with your aggression sieging |
285s | the city and it is actually holding off |
287s | just two stars per turn but if I don't |
290s | uneg that then I'm in trouble so you're |
293s | actually keeping me on the defensive |
294s | you're deciding this is the tempo that |
296s | you'd like to |
298s | establish along with with setting up for |
301s | a potential Siege here here in the north |
303s | all you got to do is train one more |
305s | Archer and you're threatening a Siege on |
307s | a city that I currently can't on |
312s | Siege go ahead and uh picking that up |
316s | moving on |
317s | back and then pumping out a lot more |
320s | units |
323s | [Music] |
325s | yeah so right over here you're playing a |
327s | good defensive omaji style here I think |
331s | like building up a |
333s | huge uh amount of of riders just keeping |
337s | them safe while I'm just like |
340s | sacrificing everything to keep the pace |
342s | up yeah in this sort of instance this |
345s | kind of aggressive play to try to Siege |
346s | the city is really good CU it helps |
349s | prevent me from being aggressive against |
351s | your cities uh the downside is is you |
354s | really need this Village down here but |
357s | I'm positioning everything in a way |
358s | where you can't easily claim it |
361s | and if this game goes on for too long |
364s | that'll make it to where I have the |
365s | production |
366s | Advantage uh making a lot easier for me |
368s | to |
369s | secure well a lead that uh you might not |
372s | be able to come back from so this play |
374s | right here is excellent as long as these |
376s | archers can continue to poke off these |
379s | Riders uh perhaps you might be able to |
381s | make a comeback and maybe try to get |
383s | either this Village or this |
387s | ruin right over here uh the importance |
390s | of making sure not to uneg with the |
392s | warrior but the rider so that way I can |
394s | continue to train healthy units off of |
396s | the uh City here this allows me to |
400s | actually apply even more pressure to you |
402s | and instead of attacking my uh cities |
404s | you may have to fall back so we're both |
406s | sitting here uh really just trading |
408s | blows and trying to prevent each other |
410s | from getting the city uh while you're |
413s | continuing over and over again to say no |
416s | I'm still here don't forget that |
420s | we're going to go ahead and keep up with |
422s | these |
423s | attacks and I thought it was over but |
426s | then it wasn't you bring it the |
434s | road so I'm like constantly doing sieges |
437s | I know won't last just I don't know why |
441s | to probably to like force you to cuz |
444s | then I'm like deciding what you are |
446s | supposed to do every turn yeah like you |
449s | you know you have to to like un spe all |
451s | the time and you're losing |
453s | stars |
455s | but damn it yep and at this point I I |
460s | pull the reverse card I have to I give |
462s | you the ultimatum do you want to defend |
464s | your city or do you want to try to fight |
467s | back for that Village prevent me from |
469s | claiming it at this point I get a clear |
472s | Advantage yeah definitely and there |
475s | might be too many riters at this point |
478s | so there was a lot of very aggressive |
480s | plays early on and we're on turn n but |
485s | you you really manage to like grow your |
489s | army like I I kind of wasted all my |
492s | units but you |
495s | like you have a lot more units than I do |
498s | at this point because you're I guess bit |
501s | more careful with them while I'm just |
503s | sacrificing |
504s | them yep but this does come with a cost |
508s | cuz while I am able to win this battle |
511s | and once again somehow you are still |
513s | applying a |
519s | Siege um while I may have enough |
522s | to push you off and finally win this |
526s | battle it does come with the |
533s | cost |
535s | mhm setting up for one more Siege |
540s | which actually there's some assistance |
542s | right over here by another HRI |
545s | player yeah my brother I don't |
549s | know probably likes me is because |
552s | we so petrified uh Gremlin also known as |
555s | blueberry |
556s | cheesecake uh currently in running in |
559s | first place and score-wise currently |
561s | running away with the game is opting to |
563s | help you out and protect your city with |
565s | that |
570s | and right over there I don't take kindly |
572s | to that and I say no I've got a |
575s | bridge yeah this bridge is fam bridge |
579s | for the this this bridge is so important |
583s | for this entire game and for those of |
585s | you seeing this perspective of the game |
587s | you might not know how this bridge was |
589s | quite important and what kind of a role |
592s | it plays but at least for now it allows |
594s | The Swordsman to go forward to kill off |
596s | an Archer throw in enough riders with a |
599s | warrior secure a |
601s | Siege and at this |
603s | point that is enough and |
606s | unfortunately I capture all the cities |
608s | and that isn't |
610s | it for mij |
612s | one that was one heck of an aggressive |
615s | game and it may look like that I have |
617s | quite a commanding |
619s | lead but if you want to know how |
622s | commanding of a lead this actually is go |
625s | ahead and take a look at goalie's |
