I Only Built Hydras and Had a BLAST | Age of Mythology 1v1s

It's time for super competitive 1v1s in Age of Mythology! After playing the campaign, I am now a master of this game and will crush all my opponents using only hydras.

Hi friendos! I just wanted to apologize for this video being so late. I had it checked off on my mental checklist, but I guess I never published it. (IRL been super busy) I also wanted to note at 56:30~ Day9 disconnects and the audio gets muted, so I had to cut some stuff. It will feel slightly weird, but I wanted to keep as much gameplay in as possible. Enjoy! -Editor

[@eshel4463]

We are never getting past greek hydra are we? Well i guess the 2 other factions are for lesser humans

[@theredarmy4884]

Thanks for all your hard work! ❤

[@megmucklebones7538]

Please STOP with those stupid thumbnails - that overly exaggerated, cringe, surprised look is awful. You are better than this man.

[@Fleetfeettv]

@@megmucklebones7538 Is this an example of the backseating mentioned at the beginning of the video?

[@OkanGultekin]

Hey man, just popped in the comments to say that I used to watch your SC2 daily videos wayyyy back when. I recently discovered that you still make videos and your ability to entertain even when it's a game I have never even heard of is uncanny. You have such a calm and positive way to go about your videos and stream that I can legitimately just watch you play something I have no interest in for 3 hours and just have fun. Sincerely thanks for the content.

[@nellychingo2010]

Same here! I still remember the days when I look forward to Funday Monday challenges! One type of unit only games. This just reminds me of those stream! HAIL HYDRA!

[@planetary-rendez-vous]

Just putting my appreciation here as well. This man taught me Starcraft 2 and without him I wouldn't understand how to play other RTS.

[@30Salmao]

Same here! Learn SC2 back in 2011 and 2012. Never thought I would be watching day[9] playing random RTSs. But AoM is sweet, couldn't be happier.

[@AmazingMrMe123]

I'm excited for day9 to play more of this game, seeing how much fun he's having with literally just hydras I can't wait for him to try Norse and Egyptian stuff too. I really like how each faction has a distinctly different economy

[@destrik4115]

Im excited for him to find out atlantean exists

[@destrik4115]

"Oh no we're building a granary here by accident. Let me cancel it and build another granary" 32:33

[@tessellator1000]

deletes grannary..... builds another granary

[@felipecci]

That's Day 9.

[@jenbak2]

It's hard to break bad habits in the heat of battle. 32:34 for those wondering

[@ImaginaryMdA]

double granary to assert dominance.

[@harryarmstrong5728]

Imagine if he was playing Egypt, lol.

[@thiccroman]

@@harryarmstrong5728 isis day 9 would slap lowkey also after the hydras... i cant wait to see loki hero spam LOL

[@comradezy]

This was hilariously fun! You probably figured this out already but, don’t build your good drop off right next to the mine. Leave a little gap so you can fit workers between them :) more surface area and faster drop offs.

[@comradezy]

Also as the Greeks your town centers can make your heroes WHILE producing villagers you can do both at the same time!

[@colbei9260]

Love his opponent turning on the stream and being like "oh it really is Day9"

Is day9 planning on playing more of the campaign? I’d love to see more of it I think there’s a lot of set pieces that would get him freaking tf out 😂

[@EsPaRtAnO2009]

I wanna see him play the scenario were Arkantos and Ajax transformed into pigs

[@cameron8779]

Seems like he has a huge backlog of games he wants to circle back to. So it probably depends on his mood.

[@alreadydeadxx2120]

its good to see RTS making a comeback.

[@SoftSpott]

This game and Rise of Nations were my entire childhood. It brings back so many memories hearing the music & those villager sound effects.

[@MrBoegela]

When | saw you were building hydras in the title i thought you were playing SC2 hahaha

[@nellychingo2010]

It's the return of Funday Monday. Except it is AOM and it is Hydra only

[@HereticalGeek]

Wow, I am so genuinely impressed by Day9 in that first match. You can tell he has far less experience with Age of Mythology than the oppo did, and his moves at first seemed random nad like he was getting stomped, but his ability to macro constantly and never slow down speaks to his decades of experience with RTS's. There was a point where you could tell the opponent just got fatigued and had no idea how to deal with the chaos that Day9 was unceasingly sowing in all corners of their base. Truly impressive.

[@stratagmgaming5697]

The somersaulting Medusas at 2:18:20 has got to be one of the funniest things I've seen in a LONG time

[@TheXboxlive5]

This is out?! Definitely buying asap

[@jonawrites7655]

Yes and it's freakin awesome!

[@DunklerVater]

really hope we get more of the campaign of AOM, although this is also fun. Small side note, the game sound is still pretty loud compared to his voice, even after he turned it down

[@D0NTF34R]

Prostagma?

[@Gunbudder]

imagine booting up your RTS remaster for some relaxing 1v1 to relive the good ol days and matching with 2007 world champion RTS player SEAN PLOT. i would delete the game and never play again lol

[@nikovz4719]

😂😂😂

[@Vanimoz]

I find so funny that it's inevitable to imitate unit voice lines in this game, that said... PROSTAGMA

[@jameslane2326]

3 hours and never once did he upgrade his towers or build any new ones lol

[@roberttyler2861]

You can right click the villagers and it continuously creates them. Absolute macro game changer haha

[@xXYourShadowDaniXx]

Yeah thats really nice, you typically need a giant pile of villagers for whatever the main resource of your faction is for that Age.

[@XxStingray104xX]

Please keep making vid for the multiplayer on this game, i suck at it so much.i feel like i learn alot from your vids.

[@RDR911]

[@RM_3D]

this is exactly how i used to play, pick a god and just build mythic units, my favorite was the anubites jsut built hundreds of them and watched them jump around :P

[@KotauFPS]

Already saw the VOD on twitch. I'm so excited for this game OMGGG

[@smushycows2334]

I discovered you through hearthstone but age of mythology was one of the most impactful games in my life growing up, it's so exciting to see you playing it! Glad you're enjoying yourself and thanks for the content!

[@destrik4115]

He always has so many villagers on favour and im just laughing do hard i love you day9

[@jemsuper]

Well he did put that favor to use

[@murlocaggrob2192]

​@jemsuper You get diminishing returns if you have more than 8 villagers gathering favor.

[@enriquegarciacota3914]

Don’t play with my Zerg heart like that, Sean

[@user-bm7mo2ck6r]

It’s really unique and entertaining to watch someone be really good at this game and also have no idea what they are doing lol. 10/10 content

[@greenplasticmoose8843]

1:48:38 was the highlight of my week 😂😂😂

[@TomorrowWeLive]

Hail Hydra!

[@comack669]

One of the most entertaining Age game matches I've ever seen 😆

[@ThePatrak4]

I hope this game gets more love from Sean, and becomes a series like AoE4. Pass it on to him if you can please.

[@user-bm7mo2ck6r]

Imagine someone just sends 6 Pegasus into your base lmao he definitely thought you were trolling him

[@jacobmcallister4161]

Been waiting for this one since your other aom retold video dropped lol

[@Actimus123]

Haha hurts soooo much when he sends villagers full of resources to a new resource without dropping it off first T_T

[@fleity]

Only hydras... You surely mean mono hydra... Smells like Monday :D

[@Jewus19]

those 6 idle villagers during the first game were very bad for my mental health.

[@ChristophelusPulps]

Saw the title and thought he was playing Starcraft again.

[@ImaginaryMdA]

We all need a little free thomas in our live, don't we?

[@Mene0]

YES AOM

[@Mangeol]

Wait.. So you are telling me am not the only one who says "Lumber Mill"? Thank god, I am not insane!

[@SirWtfcharles]

Came for starcraft, stayed for rts and day9

[@user-bm7mo2ck6r]

Please play more!

[@jaymzOG]

Is there a way to turn off unit speech? Or like... make it occur less often? I would go absolutely insane playing these myself. Even Stormgate had the issue for me. It's like the voices in my head are committing war crimes.

[@peterbassom2999]

With this, there is only 1 aoe game yet to play. Aoe 3 when? 😂

[@tessellator1000]

Love this

[@JuanxDlol]

500 hydras.

[@AlexanderMartinez-kd7cz]

if the opponent couldn't stop a single unit composition after scouting it minutes in advance is he really better at the game though?

[@RDR911]

Right? All he needed were units that say “good against Myth units” and he would’ve absolutely destroyed Day9

[@xXYourShadowDaniXx]

Opponent really needed to focus on hero units tbh as soon as he saw a gazillion Hydras

[@destrik4115]

It was also beholden on him to you know not let his oponnent casually get 12 hydras. The 3rd game is how you deal with that. In day 9s words "if your enemy is doing something weird go fucking kill him"

[@user-bm7mo2ck6r]

I mean… it’s hydra. They’re S tier myth unit

[@Bayonet1809]

Does this game have roaches too?

[@c0br4mckewl]

Prostaguma?

[@chopseh]

Typical z player going mass hydra

[@Spiror]

Hydras can be easy mythic age myth unit 🎉🎉

[@Zadrigo]

"I Only Built Hydras and Had a BLAST" - Wow, sounds like such a balanced and well constructed game.

[@AndreyGP]

It's very easy to counter.

[@gregoryhayes7569]

A good game is fun first, well-balanced second.

[@ImaginaryMdA]

Having fun? In my video game?!

[@zyffe]

Tek-tek-tekton. Prostagma?
