Wonder what was wrong with the previous thread, absolutely baffling.Either way, god having live concert at the Royal Albert Hall is based for AoE music.
>hundreds of eceleb video spam threads a daycompletely kosher>one thread for biggest Age of Empires competition that happens once a yearBANNU
Fuck the Royal Albert HalThere I said it
jannies confirmed SCfags
Someone repost the popcorn webm, I need to membpost once againAlso, fucking mongoloid whoever deleted the last thread
why do the hosts gotta be theatre kid cringe.hitting AGDQ levels
>mfw Hera wins
So how's Larry looking? Think he can take out Hera or will it be another foregone conclusion of a tournament
>>736488558
It's crazy to me than less than 2 years ago viper actually eliminated liereyy. Appearently in that time liereyy has done nothing but NOT play ranked, so how the fuck is the gap so big now?
5 year ago I thought Riley was the coolest dude ever. Now for some reason he turned into an insane sperg and looks almost retarded.
Why the hell the last thread was yeeted? i was going to bake Also, good that they had AoE1 rendition of New Technology/Age of Empires theme playing>>736488551first day? >>736488558its on yesterday's thread>>736488607Because AoE is good shitCringe shit is whatever the fuck blizzard pulled at the dormshit for Hots and SC2 taken out of Disney's manual
Who are these retards?
>>736488674Silence heathen
>>736488609>>7364886275-0 and you know itTotal Hamas Victory
>>736488651desaster...
Oh fuck I forgot theres gonna be aoe4. God fucking dammit.
>>736488558The one in the OP has popcorn topple too>Seats so cramped there's no space for the popcornIt's over, no threepeat
my nigga T-wizzy in the front seat
How many esports contestants can say they've had live concert to welcome them to the stage?
>POPCORN MENTIONEDTHEY POST HERE
>>736488651DE FOOOD EECCOO IS GOOON
The Villager is back!>>736488848Only Dota 2 and AoE
>>736488658Viper broke his wrist and has a family now.Larry simply had his internal firmware upgraded in the robotics lab je was built in for the last 2 years, he no need to train.
>>736488890Viper needs to embrace the Daut school of strats
Realistically how long do I have to wait until aoe2? I know nothing about aoe4.
>>736488838The fucking early modern outfits always get me
why was the last thread closed ?Anyway, hope we get some infos on upcoming stuff.
Hitting population cap with her!
>>736488979Reject modernity, return to tradition
I want to fuck the piece selection mommy
I think i woke from a coma but what the fuck is marinelord doing here huh!?
>>736488930Viper was playing phosphoru strats in TTL a month ago
>>736488979no bra
>>736488426where's theviper?
>>736488930He already is. His daut castle %rate is growing faster than the universe.
>>736489161Anon..
>>736488979shhhh-hooooshhhh-hooooshhhh-hooooshhhh-hooooshhhh-hoooo
Japon selected
Did Leerey ever said what he thinks of being nicknamed "Larry"?
Is this AOE4 or did they add more AOE2 civs than I was aware of
>>736489161The snek was retired
>>736489245They're doing AoE4 final before AoE2.
>>736489245AOE4
>>736488979>>736489112goddamn

Let's get it ganggggg!!!!!
bald dude casting reminds me of that muslim guy from sc2
>>736489417
>>736488939HelllloooooooOOOOOOOOoooooo
demuslim is balder than i remember from sc2 days
De fuggen popcooorn
appetizer should be 3rd place match. keep aoe4 separate from aoe2 tournies please.
>>736489610Noone knows. Nobody watches AoE4.
>>736488939https://liquipedia.net/ageofempires/Red_Bull_Wololo/Londinium/AoE2
I hate demuslim and I hate aoe4. See you in 2 hours or whatever.
My conspiracy theory is that either Vitality has kidnapped other players families or there's match fixing going on. A 1300 would have defended against some of this early pressure from Hera yesterday but TheViper just died. Game 1 was especially obvious.
holy fuck just start playing already no one care abtu AoE4
Even the commentators for AoE4 are weak, huh.
>AbtuAHAHAHAHA YOU RETARD
where's my boy beastyqt?i tried to get into aoe4. i like it more than 2 because it plays more similar to sc. i should revisit it
Wololoo
>>736489897kek
>''Idle villager'' shirtThat's pretty good
>>736489902If it was anyone but Viper I would say "it's bs but I believe it" but Viper is too proud to not depend on quickwalls and that was his downfall. I can see him holding on to his pride only to get smothered to death by Hera's LC, which has been his modus operandis for 5 years by now.
>>736489923Compiling shaders or something
Any girl gamers in the AoE-scene?
>commentators stalling because we're not allowed to see them play
>>736490193Thread from yesterday had few mentioned
So why does he put the napkin whatever over his mouse?
>>736490193Gabi's an AoE2 ""pro"" who's quite decent actuallyShe's extremely fun to watch, but far too aggro to be able to actually compete at the highest level
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzcNx3x-Kj4
>>736490193Yes but just as with shogi the best girl is 1k elo below the worst S-tier is-in-every-tournament boy.
>>736490268Sweaty palms, mom's spaghetti.
>>736490193how is that person alive after getting destroyed by naniwa
>>736490268>comfy mouse
>>736490193I think Gabi is a girl (female) but you can never be sure. Tier 2 player
>>736489902ew doesn't really fit viper. lierey is the opposite, he is especially strong with ew settings.
why is AoE4 so much worse to watch than 2?
>>736490357Scarlett can take a pounding. Unlike naniwa.
I am tired of pretending so i'll say it out loud. AOE4 is a better game than 2. And it's not even close.
Smooth AoE4 experience by yours truly modern Relic studio
God, this game is fucking ugly. Some kids were whining about graphics yesterday on chat, yet this is what they're referring to as modern.
>>736490428It looks so washed out.Can't make out what the fuck I'm looking at half the time.
>>736490386>meanwhile Larry goes 15-0 in normal settings TTL against more players while going 8-1 in EW groups stage against relative clownsNah
>>736490448>Some kidsPlease don't bring that over to this thread
>>736490375If she's that brown chick then I'm pretty sure that's a real girl.
>>736490193>>736490375She's as female as they getUses to stream pretty often iirc
>>736490514honestly, yes that's it, RTS are supposed to have high contrast units and buildings but it all just blends together somehow
>>736490586If she put on the Kuruminha cosplay I would give her the hardest bleaching of her life
Let's.. Goo.... Woo..
>>736490586I'm doing monke noises, my neutrinos are activated, would play 1v1 with
>>736490715>slaps a bit of red paint on your face>suddenly dick goes wildWhy is this bros?
>>736490595SC2 did a lot of damage to the scene
>>736490787>puts on big feline camo pattern clothes on>suddenly dick goes wildWe just don't know anon, life is weird
>>736490863?Sc2 has excellent read-ability.
>>736490863that bloom aura around them makes it even worse somehow
Cant even tell what the units are
>>736490586This is the furthest archetype I could imagine playing an RTS, especially something like the AoE series. Good for her
>>736490787IDK about you but for me it's because I'm Portuguese
>>736490980AoE2 has proved time and time again that it really appeals to everyone, from 6yo kids to 60yo middle-aged men, all across the world.It's truly a wondrous game.
>>736490974those big ass spears should clue you in
I swear original AoE3 looked better than this.
>>736491005Or Europeans Indians as we like to call them.
i like the dynamic road textures
>>736490549ttl had way more and weaker players, red bull is world top 8.lierey only made it to top 8 in kotd 6.
>>736491027They should host the next Redbull event in Mexico just to have Soe wearing that eagle costume
>Plastic cap fell offUK is such a country of savages
>aoe2 is set start in 50 minutesSurely we are right on track HUH
>>736491027post more
>>736491225>next RedbullAhahahhahahahahhahaha point at him and laugh.Hera will assrape Larry so hard the scene will die. This is the last Wololo.
I'm falling asleep over here and it's only 17pm.Wake me up when AoE 2 starts.
>>736491225Yes>>736491471I only have few from these threads, I'm sure someone has all of em
>>736491438AoE4 is bo5, all Marinelord has to do is win 2 more like this and we'll be on pace
>>736491492people used to say that over SC2 and BW fag ass reign of terrorAlso, We are getting 3x3 comps back due to players wanting it and the fact the game was buffed for team comp
>>736490980>>736490715>>736490775She's really enjoyable to watch, has a truly aggro monke mentality, meaning her series usually last very little. Probably the single most aggro player I can think of, alongside that one Indian dude in Platinumhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3r0xXoHT_HUEnded up 3rd in her Silver group, which is pretty good
so is jean d arc a zero hour type sub faction?
apparently Hera shilling Gabi on his youtube wasn't enough
I will never understand why anyone would want to go somewhere in person to see another person sit in a chair and clack on a keyboard and mouse playing a fucking video game. Just embarrassing. Streaming is bad enough, but actually wanting to sit around and watch some retards in person is another level of psychotic
AoE2 is just another gookclicking game.>lmao fuck checking for incoming units and preparing defenses, I'll just quickwall if he ever shows up looolololololstrategy my ass
>>736491790>build the wall to keep low IQ barbarian savages out is a valid strategy.Anon seems like you are dumber than Trump if you don't think that's "strategy."
>>736488426Goddamn, how long do AoE4 matches take
>>736491750I just wanted to talk about scarlett. I wash my hands of this.
>>736491790>archer shows upWhat now gookclickniggerWalling is a huge part of the non-EW earlygame, and not walling is a huge gamble that you will be able to hold off raids for a minor advantage
>>736491790>i'll just quickwallThe (self proclaimed) king (lol) of quickwalls (lmao) lost yesterday 4-0 in 70 minutes because of this mentality.
>>736491790Viper lost 4-0 yesterday precisely because he didn't quickwall
>>736492084Acshually it was precisely because he wanted to rely on quickwall instead of just.. walling.
>>736492013>Rush militia and siege engines get through with a zerg rush early game.Rate strat difficulty?
>>736492013viper lost against the current best quickwaller so...
Why do they have levels? Just play WC3 instead of this shit. And get to AoE2 already.
>>736492202Irrelevant since he barely ever got to attack. He lost more villagers in his best game than he killed in all 4 games combined.
While we're waiting for the main event, what's (you)r favorite campaign? I always had a soft spot for El Cid, haven't played many of the newer campaigns to see how they fare
>>736491897Its bo5 and we are seeing another Jeanne and Baguette civs having a massive meltdown over spears and halbedier civshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwh0k0c6Tt8
>>736492431English in aoe4
>>736492431Montezuma as campaign. I love how many secrets were peppered though the map, go here and get better units, the turtles around tenotchitlan, etc.Never played the newer ones but I hated what I saw on the Mapuche one I tried to watch.Lepanto as the standalone scenario.
>>736491565Yeah right
>>736492431I always liked Saladin's as a kiddo.
>>736492594>Saladin, where are you going with that great army?
CA TA PHRACT
>>736492579Oh man Lepanto is great, my second favorite behind Vinlandsaga
do you guys think these pros are high iq and intelligent in other areas of life as well? hera unironically looks like he's only good for playing aoe2
thirsting
>>736492701Wait a second that's not a...
>>736492751why is she dressed like a dude
One thing I have to praise AoE4 for is that the game has an actual achievable game ending condition. AoE2 is the better game overall but I hate that it relies on players looking at the score and having to make their own judgement on whether they should resign or not, because otherwise the game will take hours for the conquest victory condition to play out. Doesn't help that the community decided early on that wonder and relic victories have to go.
>>736492751
>>736492748hera is also gm in league. He will play wc3 soon and I have no doubts that he will get a good rank
>>736492826>wc3T90 was an absolute goof and couldn't even wrap his head around the concept of not spamming workers.
>>736492780Only males had uniforms in the past. Women were wearing potato sacks.
Petards should be buffed
>>736492748No idea, but the gravy train won't last forever so they better be doing something on the sides. Hera might be OK since he has 300k in real currency in the best of the worst countries, but the firsties with a handful of ks are cooked.
>>736492907T90 isn't a pro player lol. He never claimed to have good mechanics. He always said he's aoe2 only.
>>736492701cute horse :3
>>736492907Wc3 is undeniably goofy with the whole tax mechanic.
>>736492458We seriously need some AoE and fate crossover memes for shits and gigglesGrok Aislop cant get that right
>tughlaq dynastywho
i wish for handcannoneers to be buffed, and for tournaments to fit my schedule. i won't be catching any of the games today.
>>736493226hory shiru she's TRIPLE deer pushing!
>>736492907T90 is an autist who was homeschooled and doesn't play video games other than AoE2. He legit doesn't get pop culture references his chat makes, he doesn't know anything about the IRL history of the civs in the game, he literally only knows AoE2. This is not a joke, and other than the autist part he himself admits to everything else I said.
>>736493323>tughlaq dynastyLiteral JEETSGod dammit Relic
>>736493351What could be so important you won't be watching AoE2 with us the lads tonight?
>>736493015He's a +2000MMR rated player thoughever.
when's AoE2?
>>736493432The conversation was about pros. T90 is irrelevant to the subject.
>>736493454After this AI generated mobile game is over.
>>736493454Once the superior game ends.
>>736493425Kinda cute and wholesome.Still wish he had at least tried to learn wc3.
>>736493425The ideal life..
AoE2 sissies... it's joever
>>736493536Command confirmed.
>>736493425Good, because Warcraft 3 balance as of now is garbage>>736493594>pisscordFiltered ass faggot
>>736493594>Discord shitpost exploit
>>736493730Isn't 11 feudal pretty good? Let them rest iincho.
>>736493719>Good, because Warcraft 3 balance as of now is garbage?
which unit voice line from aoe2 is most ingrained in your head?
>>736493809No matter how hard you train, this will happen at some point...
>>736493969PO-GO~!
>>736493969Holza?
>>736493594I know this is a shitpost but this mentality is why a game as good as AoE2 will never be made again. By labeling fun shit as exploits to be corrected, they end up creating other problems. Things like towers and siege become overpowered if they can never miss and you can never run away from them. So you have to nerf them in terms of pure stats, or doing things like AoE3 did where you have an artificial limit in how far from your starting TC you can place towers and castles to avoid them being used offensively. They become more boring and can only be used in the exact way the developers intended, without creativity.
>>736493969University Tururu pops into me head randomly every now and then.
Boy I sure love drinking my red bull while watching these streams, ill be sure to go buy a red bull shirt for the next one!

>>736493351Respect to the fact that you've showed up to every thread to say you're not watching, it takes real autism
>>736494239I've never seen that happen
>>736494250Come AttilaFollow
>>736494324Because it's a bannable offense.
>>736494290Owning HD doesnt give discount to DE anymore
>>736494406Can you actually do it, though?
>>736493969>but I'm an old man now, what harm could I possibly do?>a severed head on a pike seemed such a grisly trophy to be displayed at the chapel at Chalons>sometimes... i miss it
>>736490193The best AoE2 female player is a 16 year old mexican that got bored of the game, sadly
>>736494492Yes, and hope someone clips the result.
>>736494519Women that maintain competitive interest in video games past the age of 18 are either butt-ugly and/or autistic.
>>736494492Yes?It's a simple control command.It removes (the already miniscule) unit-collision so your +100 unit big army can now occupy one tile.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QL3zn1HMDDU
>>736494439Because they incorporated multiple DLCs into base DE. It's way cheaper now to get the whole package.
>>736494632ugly autistic women are fun
>>736494492It's not as easy as mutalisk stacking (you need to create gaps in palisades and it quickly breaks apart) but technically yes.IIRC there was a T90 video about it being used in a tourney and the aftermath banning its intentional use.
>>736494635>control commandPATROL command. FUCK.
Why does the host pronounce ''Sengoku'' as ''San Goku''?
>>736494778Because he pronounces Jeanne as John.
>>736494778
>>736494492It became an issue one or two years ago in the Red Bull (i think?) tourney where the knight blender was virtually unbeatable because the stack makes it impossible for the attacking units to target them while they take like x10 the damage. Haven't seen it this year so I assumed it was just patched out rather than honor rule
Who cares, where's my boy Riley?
pls reply to this post when aoe2 starts thank you
>>736494858
>>736494886not yet
>>736488551We should unite you cunt, RTS is in critical condition
>tune in at 12 bong>aoe4BOOOOOOOO get these NIGGERS off the stage
>>736494886yeah no prob
>>736494940You lie. AoE4 is cancer and looks ugly as sin. How did it get so many expansions when they couldnt make the animations less awful?
>>736494886still aoe4 im afraid
>>736494000pov: you are mbl in a 60k dollar tournament
>>736493594aoe is slow because units are slow
>>736494931This. It's not AoE vs SC. It's AoE, SC, WC, C&C, CoH and others vs the rest of gaming. The problem is that this is a genre for autists and we get too attached to brand vs brand mentality
>>736488979>>736489112True perfection.
>>736493969The galloping sound cav archers used to have prior to DE
>>736494823>JeanneYou mean JD?
>>736495154We're all uncs here, too mellowed out and relaxed to care about brand shit and whatnot.Unless they tip another popcorn bucket!
>>736495204>loinclothStop trying to seduce us.
>>736494937>All AoE2 fans shows up at the scheduled time>AoE4 finals still going because the allotted time obviously wasn't enough>This inflates the AoE4 viewership numbersNooticing
>>736492807Wonder and Relic victories are too cheap and easy. You can keep armies away easily by repairing already, and Spanish can get every relic reliably with their FC focus, relic picking missionaries and conqs easily keeping you inside your base with stats alone.
fuck aoe4 looks cool
>>736494632>Women that maintain competitive interest in video games past the age of 18 are either butt-ugly and/or autistic.So just like the men?
Nigger we are 20 min over timeCall it a day

>>736495470hive mind nigga
>>736491027>>736491551>>736492965>>736495204Is there a collection of all of these? I've seen some over the years bit don't know how many units have been done. I'd appreciate further posting.
>>736495294They couldn't predict how long AoE4 games would take because no one watched any before.
>>736495362Naturally.
>>736495543AOE4 doesn't have time limits like 2?
>>736495510I dunno, but here's the artist https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts?tags=kabewski&z=1
>>736495612yes, 40m
Everything could be fixed if population-costs were a thing.>knight costs 2 supply>onager costs 4 supply>etcNow the counter-units can actually work as intended.
WHAT WERE THEY THINKING
>>736495663And how do you go overtime then desu senpai?
Stop this shit right fucking now
>>736495730>making AoE more starcraft and warcraftit will kill the game as fast as stormforge
>>736495879Well I don't know friend. It just seems retarded that the supposed cavalry-counter doesn't actually counter cavalry because of their inefficient pop-usage.
What AoE 2 needs is the Swiss as a civilization, plus a new iberian civ with Tercios as the UU
>>736495879All Ages other than 1 and 2 have pop costs.It all started with AoM rightfuly making vills cost 1 while any cheap military costs 2+
The macedonian faggot fears the samurai
Fucking hell.
>We're going to game 5
>>736496034>Swiss with Spearmen unique upgrade to give them +1 range
>>736494886guess what
>>736495986It does cost wise, not to say if you are having to rely on counter trash units it's your fault.And it doesn't matter outside of max pop scenarios that are a relative minority.>>736495646Thanks. Do you rember who does the japanese ones like >>736495251?
>>736495294If I was an organizer I'd always put the event that has less pull first. I remember the Wololo tournament at the castle where the AoE4 finale was after the AoE2 at like 11PM local time and like half the venue just vanished. It's just a bad look.
>>736495646Real fun shit there, thanks bro.
FIVE games
These AoE 4 niggers are going to get an intense set while we 2 fellas will get out 0-gay wipeout.>>736496159Silver_Bell

>>736494912>>736494940>>736495070>>736496157guys...
Can someone explain to me how do you go overtime when matches have a literal time limit?
>game 5Fuuuuuuuuck.
>>736496271It's all part of the plan to get some AoE4 funding due to 'tourney views'
i have lost respect in all fish
are all games played on the same map or what is this nonsense?
>>736495771after that time a 10 minute timer would start and the player with the biggest score at 0:00 wins
Ayy lmao.
>>736493430work. im American and dont get easter monday off.>>736494314i watched all the sunday games, and caught half the saturday games.
>>736496368Previous one had water so no. But yeah all aoe4 games look the fucking same. The game is so damn bland visually.
This is so exciting
>>736496479If only the unit animations were half as good as age of mythology from 2002 it would look less horrible but it's just bad all around. Let's not even get started with the UI.
>>736496529kek
Isn't it a bit mean that it's best of 5 for AoE 4 while AoE 2 gets.. What.. Best of 9?I mean, thank god for that, but still.
>>736496529I'm imagining Riley saying this in his sleep in the audience, whilst seeing a dream of Daut vs Tatoh match
>>736496613Both will be 5 games long.
>>736496659based commie Hera ensuring both sets are equal
>>736496226We are getting 3x3 comps again to compensate for singles.Mainly after the buffs.I seriously wish that DE could reach yidsney for a SWGB remaster but shitsney would obviously have the rebel campaign retconned to oblivion, and mando race would be garbage
>>736496529I am just about fit to burst from all this excitement.
>>736496124That would be this one https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts?tags=silver_bell&z=1
someone do something
>>736492748most of them are engineers>>736496613if you think that's bad just wait until you learn the prize pool for AOE4.
>>736496775Oh i forgot, it would be the expanding fronts garbage with nuwars shit no one wants it
>>736496964Meant to reply to >>736496159
Will it be over soon?
>>736497078We need to wait til the inbred genes of the holy roman empire kicks in and they all die
>>736495646Thx, these are great
>>736496124I've always toyed with the idea of a permanent hill bonus for defenses as a civ bonus, but I've never considered how viable that would be
>>736497078It will end up in a tie game and they'll start from scratch
My Wife
if you like 2 but hate 4 you're just a nitpicker
I'm no expert, but why did wam keep chasing marine lord with vastly smaller / weaker armies, essentially just letting Marinelord kite him?
>I expected him to be worseaoe4 players have no grace
>>736497391It just looks so bland. Both aesthetic-wise and gameplay-wise.
>>736497348What's with her earring?
yippee yahoo
...Huh.. It's over..?I meanWHAT A MATCH WOWWW
>>736497391Retarded newfag who doesn't remember how Microsoft was trying to kill aoe2 to promote their shitty aoe4.
>>736497391I just hate 4 for the homogenised UI. Does that count as nitpicking?
>>736497459She's a Harry Potter fan
>name is Marinelord>trophy is marine-themedKojimaaa
Does Larry even have a chance? I hate Hera but he's just too good.
>>736497391Gladly, eat shit.
>>736497459That's the Imperial Age icon bro
I dislike AoE 4 because it's just so fucking meh.There's no soul, no spice, no nothin'.Coulda really made something interesting like a robust custom game system, something to push for a distinct angle to distinguish it from AoE 2.
>>736494886ES DE DIME FOR DE BADADOOOOMBS
>>736497551Larry and awakened MBL are the people that can do it. Sadly MBL could not keep his awakened state long enough.
>>736496964>>736496226Thanks. Finally managed to devise a way to dl the whole X (formerly shitter) without an acc
>>736497595Ah right, thanks. Haven't played AOE in a thousand years lol
>>736497516the launch was awful it's not nitpicking if you're mad about release aoe4
>>7364973914 is just worse in every aspect and doesn't even feature a different historical period like AoM, AoE3 or even AoEO
>>736491504>when>>736494886>whenwake up
>>736497551Fortune will favor Larry only if someone topples his popcorn as Hera descends.
>>736497609Because AoE4 was outsourced to nuRelic, who is now full of former starcraft devs who ruined dawn of war 3 earlier
>>736497617THANK YOU
>>736497609said this on day 1 and everyone seethed. it looks like a mobile game. aom remake is also incredibly soulless compared to the original
Sing lads!YOOHOOHOHOOU WOLOLOLOUUUU!Time for AoE2!!
>>736497643Simply use cunnyx embeds
>>736497348>Sworsman
>>736497683We're SO back.Thanks anon.
>>736497715How rude where is Kaimie?
>>736493594All microing is exploiting. You think tanks do perfect 180 angle turns in split second in real life?
>>736497686Is everything just starcraft's fault in your mind?
>LOL GUYS SEA SHANTIES, THE BRITISH NAVY, PIRATES!what's up with this theming?? if only there were an age of empires game set in that era, right??
>>736497715YOOOOHOOHOOUU
luv me sea shanties lads
The passion for aoe2 is clear. Love this.
>>736497203How is that different from Georgians?
>>736497875it's FUN
>>736495204Love the Dreamworks movie reference.
>>736493594>Just call all micro techs "exploits"
>>736497956Same, makes me want to replay Black Flag, despite its jank
do people in orchestras think playing video game music is cringe or is it just part of the job for them?
Soul
5-0 Hera, calling it now
>>736498061Considering noone cares about their art anymore they better not complain.
>>736493594>mangonels only count as 1 populationGOOD. this was the worst thing about age of mythology which is otherwise my favorite in the age series. artificially limiting the amount of units you can create by making some cost 4 pop each is just retarded. if you don't want players spamming them, make them expensive.
Nooooo the audio crack at the end
I hate shanty shit. Classic music is cool though.
>>736497997But how can I validate my opinion if I don't call every mechanic I don't like an exploit?
>>736497863Every garbage you see in gaming nowadays can be always traced back to blizzardAs for the dawn of war 3 stuff, it is unironically true and even catalogues here at /v/ and /tg/ when the game came out.
>>736497968The bonus would apply to flat ground as well, don't remember if the georgian bonus does that
>>736498087What the hell is that instrument even?Organ guy was great tho
>>736497551Yes, Liereyy got extremely close to beating Hera too many times, eventually he will get lucky enough to finish the job.>>736497391Other than the graphics, I also don't like AoE4 removing all the fun stuff that differentiates AoE from other games. Other RTSs don't have you dodging projectiles, doing monk conversions or doing house walls. All I wanted from AoE4 was to keep those things while having better graphics and doing some of the things they've done like giving us more unique civs and some new mechanics.
>>736498179That might or might not be true, but Blizzard did ruin custom games, so fuck em forever.
>>736498061Probably just happy to be able to play, as long as the pieces aren't boring them. Takes a lot to give everyone something to do and make it sound good.
VAMOS
Memb is such a boomer energy I can't even fathom is.>>736498136But what about costing TWO population?
this is some imperial age cringe right here
AAA RILEYY IS SO COOOLL
>>736498195That sounds like it removes the strategic complexity of where to place these things without adding anything.
hehe funni
>>736498206>eventually he will get lucky enough to finish the job.Hope that's today
Nothing better than enjoying some kino AoE 2 games drinking a cool refreshing can of monster
Love me big drums
>>736498246my music teacher back in high school failed people for playing that chopsticks song because every chorus kid would sit at the piano and play it and giggle just like riley did
>>736488890Viper also doesn’t grind the way he used to. He spends more time doing team games and uploading goofy strats on his YouTube channel.
OH FUCK KINO ALERT
I wanna hear the orchestra but the retarded crowd keeps screaming and clapping
Finally they're playing some actual game music. The halftime piece was a pretty underwhelming. If only the audience wouldn't constantly clap.
>>736498329>mfw I tune in an hour late and the games didn't even start yet
>>736498136>make them expensivepopulation cost is also a cost that can be expensive
KINO
Holy fuck, this is epic.
popcorn time
>>736498331That's why I've been toying with it, don't know if having extra hill bonus on top of that would be too strong or not
POPCORN POLYMARKET ODDS AT ALL TIME HIGHS
Extremely cold take: Hera sweep in under an hour.
>>736498179Very cool, though one could have hoped they'd actually mimic starcraft more so it wasn't a SHIT game.
>>736498446Need a significant interval so people have plenty of time to tune in after AoEBore is done.
poor Jamesimagine if he didnt pull out of Soe, and leave her literally at Christmass, fuck you James
>>736498365>Drinking literal satanic drink
no memb casting?
Just permaban Hera.
>>736497965It's really bad faith that they keep trying to siphon it for the 4 events
actual sovl in an esports event. very weird
I have no clue what Liereyys power level is compared to Hera. He is clearly above everyone else.So, who will win?
Literal whos?Thank god for AoE 2 to finally set that building on the map.
>>7364960472 has pop costs. Karambit warriors and blackwood archers cost half population, and Bengali monks and villagers with the Mahayana tech also cost less
HIDE YOUR POPCORN BUCKETS
>t90 and dave finalit's expected, but it's always so grating. t90's constant "broooooo duuuuuude", zooming in on a glitching cow animation for 5 minutes, and failed attempts at boomer humor are insufferable.
>>736498547He better throw a couple games for the event. Imagine all this setup and preparation for a complete sweep.
>no dautsheesh rub it in!
>>736498560they wanted the sc2 crowd in a time people had enough of starcraft in general and wanted something new
Dynasty implies you have kids you dumb COW
>>736498547>under an hourIt's 5 games so in a way it would be like him pulling Larry's underwear down and spanking him on camera, which would be kino in its own way.
How many years Soe's been doing this stuff and she still sucks.
Liereyy looking nervous.
Very cool, but not as cool as El Reinado castle.
>>736488426>no women
Bro looks stressed out.
It's over, Larry has the Villi
LET'S GO MOTHERFUCKERS
>>736498687true but perhaps he treats the finals more serious
>random dudes cosplaying in the crowdlove to see it
lmao he knows
>Playing AoE2 in the motherfuckin Albert Royal HallYoung violinist me could never imagine
Liereyy might have lost but he got the female villijiers.
>>736498710Then why come they didn't learn a single thing from Starcraft 2?
>>736498817
Sexo villager
Cute draftwench.
>>736498870What's the chance he tapped that?
best of 9 gonna be a long one
>>736498916That's his mom
>>736498952lol, lmao
>>736498969That doesn't answer the question.
>>736498908Perfection.
>>736498858There were some dudes yesterday too
what is the wheel for? what is the book for? what is the dumptruck for?
>>736498969Yes, and?
the background music being live while they're selecting is such a nice touch, i love the addition of the shakers that sounds like a ticking timer and add a sense of urgency
>>736498889Because who wants to copy fucking yidzard?
THE WHEELOFMONEYYYYYY
SPIN IT AGAIN YOU COWARDS
>>736499008>>736498908she cute
>>736499008>>736498908If she wasn't carrying the banner I would skip the player and touch hands with her instead
Can't wait for a 5-0 for Hera thanks to the unbeatable "just spam light cav lmao"
>>736499018>Me and anons gathering at vee to enjoy some good ass RTS even if Hera wins all games
First I was not a fan of the empire wars format, but I don't think I've really seen any early game laming this tournament, which is pretty nice.
>>736499008Does she help Larry with the Draft?
>>736499059You got Starcraft living RENT FREE in your head and it's hilarious.Seethe all you want. Starcraft has done a lot of things right. Maybe there was something to learn there for the rest of the supposed copy-cats. lmao.
why are anons here always thirsting over every woman on stream?
>>736499124no early game laming but on the flip side there have been games decided within 10 minutes
>>736499216Where do you think you are?
>live aoe2 musicLUDO
>>736499172NTA but he is right, you starcraftfags are insufferable.
there is an aoe2 event in royal albert hall in the year 2026. that is incredibly insane.
>>736499164No, she helps Larry cope with the loss afterwards
>>736499265Is Royal albert hall something important or whatever?
TUPI is too good
this event has so much soul. redbull is based
CAM ON LARRY, YOU'RE AUSTRALIAS GREATEST ATHLETE
>banning original civsfuck now i gotta sit with the wiki open to learn about new civ bonuses
>444We're gonna need a fresh bread soon
Do you think they made those thingies for every civ?
>>736499248Oh yeah, AoE4 looks bland and uninspired because of Starcraft, the game that understands read-ability and unit-expression to the point it might as well be a science.Maybe you should reel in your retard and us SCHADS wouldn't need to come in here and do the job for you.
liereyy only banned one new civ
>That mirin'yjk

>>736500157Shut up, this is Lierrey's tournament. Hera is too confident, he'll let it go over his head.
