Eventful Islands (Low Elo Legends)

[@zeruzio1345]

2 Low ELO Legends uploads in 2 days? It really is Christmas!

[@HitheshKk]

I'm 1300 in most land maps. But I suck at hybrid maps. This had a lot of useful tips to keep in mind though. Thanks.

[@skylarius3757]

Fish booming makes all the difference when it comes to maps with water.

[@jefffinkbonner9551]

The irony is if Red had built 3 archery ranges at his forward castle instead of those 3 barracks and gone arbalest, he could've pulled this one out. He still would've needed way more galleons, but at least bracer and ballistics and thumb ring would've benefitted both. Going infantry against Vikings is always a bad call except for maybe Teutons and Japanese. 3 archery ranges for the win!

[@MathMagician93]

But there was no neutral island to put the three archery ranges on.

[@pizza-for-mountains]

@@MathMagician93 three archery ranges on the enemy island is good enough 11

[@minikawildflower]

Who would win: 37 farms build order vs three archery ranges on a neutral island

[@minikawildflower]

Good thing I wrote this before t90 told us not to do it in the intro ;)

37 farm Meta OP

[@robertmiller8767]

So excited to start seeing the upcoming meta change to the 37 farm eco. Hopefully won't affect pro tournaments too much!

[@TheBigLanowski]

What is this new meta? Where does it come from?

[@windy8544]

viper's gonna be destroyed if they nerf 37 farms

[@MrSzaman12]

I very much hope that they will nerf it a little, cause it punishes other meta strategies too much

[@robertmiller8767]

@@TheBigLanowski It's a secret strategy that first emerged in 2013 but it's making a comeback with the recent balance changes. Works best with Vikings due to the free wheelbarrow and handcart

[@BHaRGAVDESHPaNDE011]

yeah fortified wall and 37 farms behind it... those are the best games... 11

[@forcelightningcable9639]

“Can someone screenshot this” cue 10,000 people tweeting at T90 with the same screenshot.

[@craig8727]

I didn't realize the point of building the dock early, thanks for the explanation T90!

[@Kriegerdammerung]

This was an incredible game, all it needed was Larry Bird saying "Merry fuc**ng Christmas!"

[@peterpeterpeter2226]

thx for the loads of content bro

[@rhettorical]

This is one of the first times that the players' low ELO really shines through. The number of times they just didn't see important things is ridiculous.

[@unimportantcommenter4356]

Btw, what is the best counter to Longships? By drawing conclusions from this match, FG is better against smaller numbers and unmicroed Longboats, while Galleys do way better against en masse LB. The reason I ask this cause I once defeated a Viking player on Italy using AoC Briton galleys, as I kept loosing so many Fire Galleys.

[@aidanhodgemusic9270]

I believe the counter is demo ships behind fire gallons. Galleys are slightly worse than longships and should lose in equal number. Fireships counter longships 1v1 but a mass will destroy them if you cant get a good suround. Demos are suppose to counter mass of ships. So you use the fire ships as the meat shield for the demo ships.

[@teddyhaines6613]

The best counter is mass Caravels from Portuguese.

[@lucz1499]

Another Rollercoaster Tycoon reference, T90. I heard that! Bring on the RTC videos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@thomassheehy8044]

i don't think ive ever seen someone throw a game this badly

[@JohnSmith-tk7nt]

Low ELO players that spend the whole game microing longboats or cav archers while their eco is hopelessly forgotten make me laugh

[@RennieAsh]

They don't play the game to watch villagers farm, they play it to have an epic stand off between land and water units XD

[@minikawildflower]

@@RennieAsh It's a war game!

[@Goatcha_M]

I've always believed you should have enough Trebs to take down a castle in 1-2 volleys.

[@CoffeeAndBusiness]

Japanese 👄

[@ultrak0w]

how many trebs tallies a trickle-trebber trickle if a trickle-trebber tried to trickle trebs?

[@billybatseenddeeerste1271]

it's astonishing to me to see blue in the feudal age, being pop-capped for several minutes. t90 makes comment 'oh blue is still not making fishing ships', oh boy i do wonder why XD , it is a good learning experience for blue surely

[@cal4837]

That was a fun game. Red had him in the first half ngl

[@markdowse3572]

Indeed, Cal, Red had Blue on the canvas initially. But Red's decision making was then poor..... M 🦘🏏😎

[@Shlonzs]

Team islands truly is t90 proof

[@HasanAmmori]

One of the best games of the year :)

[@bm8985]

I think it's really not clear that the fletching and bodkin and bracer help with the navy.

[@kavenram]

It helps the war galleys/galleons and longboats. Not the fire ships.

[@TheAbyssofFire]

Merry Christmas T90! Do you think that in a tourney a mapgen like this would get an admin re? I've seen some unbalanced maps in tourneys before but this is pretty extreme

[@T90Official]

If it was my tourney it would definitely be an admin re

[@thefurdrake]

Red did well on the offensive but fell apart when he had to defend :

[@bigbakaboon]

red did well on water until he lost water * fixed that for you

[@timwood70]

:'( this is now me, I did my first ever ranked game today and got smashed

[@minikawildflower]

Don't give up, I've played hundreds of games and I still get smashed :D

[@coggearalex]

Dude you can do it man don't give up :). I made friends with a 700 elo Slav who probably has a hard time too and I tried to cheer him up and encourage him and we won a match together! It just takes practice, and I actually think watching random vids of low ELO legends but also pro players explaining why they do certain things rly helps you think out of the box once you get a grasp of what is possible :). I wish you the best of luck!

[@naveenonpaper]

Yep! I played around ten games losing about 8. I feel ya.

[@lvengineerable]

It's always rough when you start. Once your rating matches your skill level you'll start seeing a win rate closer to 50%. Just gotta stick with it!

[@timwood70]

@@minikawildflower i'll be honest was shocked at what a rush it was, reminded me of my first time pking in runescape!

Can the handcart of the mountaincivs be used by ships?

historically accurate

[@tocobb7747]

the wood joke . boom boom .

[@Sggiffin]

Castle on ur docks and load the transports, teuton for range and load the scouts and raid!

[@SuperSirianRigel]

Wow. Red had so many resources... And produced zero counterattack units when he was getting killed. Like when things started falling apart for him his brain just stopped working or something. lol.

[@ApathyBM]

300 IQ LEL Strategy: Fishing ships can be raided and idled by Galleys. Shore fishers can just pull back

[@bananaslamma35]

It's kind of funny to think that T90 kind of runs into the problem of thinking in terms of what would be the proper thing to do, not realizing that LEL brains don't work that way. Him thinking red built double back docks to go into galleys is just one, another is T90 thinking that just because Blue has vision over an area that means he actually sees a pair of boats sailing through it, because to him it's just natural to be paying attention, but 800 elo players struggle just to keep track of their own units let alone the enemy's.

[@andrewdavis6012]

T90 going full Fatslob with Vikings yeah I want to see that

[@CJ-111]

2 potential good players

THRASH-A-TOR. Not Thrashanator. :P

[@he1ar1]

Never forget the viking 37 farm build order on black forest

[@GuardsmanGary_Ch]

Going by fatslobs games vikings are the #1 civ for black forest. They win every time.

[@андрейкопылов-л6ъ]

Actually berserks are weaker then Champs. Champs beat them slightly and more eco efficient in straight fights. But berserks are more universsal (better anti trash; quite good against cav and etc) and great to raid due to their regen and speed. Watch Spirit of the law's analysis more T90, he s your friend after all) (i didnot mean any harm to u)

[@Jova]

Loving the videos.

[@ultrak0w]

shore fish for the win.

[@ChocolateMilkCultLeader]

Why not have fishing ships go to Fish Traps, and create new ones out of newer docks. Fish traps are more efFISHient (on wood) and faster(w/ gillnets) than farms

[@Kubinda12345]

Yes, finally a water map! I wish T90 would cast more water maps and not Arabia/Arena all the time.

[@markdowse3572]

Hear, hear ! We demand more water maps, Mr T90 ! 😃 M 🦘🏏😎

[@akaMaddy]

Vikings! Get rekt saracens 😛

[@nathanfranks1476]

For how minuscule the gather rate difference is between deep fish and shore fish, you would think deep fish wouldnt be something t90 would harp on alll the time. Does SOTL have a fish ship vid? I bet you gather like 10 extra food a min on deep fish….

[@ChainSideTV]

Hey T90, love the content, been watching alot. Why don't you stream on Twitch or KZbin? I would love to tune in, but I refuse to use any service by Facebook so I don't have any options!

[@foresightfox1256]

He moved to fb gaming from twitch. I'd also love him moving to yt instead but i guess they didnt make an offer to him.

[@shitsquirrel9]

T90 took an exclusivity deal with Facebook after being really unsatisfied with the way Twitch was treating him as a creator and wanting to be able to secure an income for his family. It would be great to stream on youtube after his exclusivity deal, but I completely understand why hes on there. Its really not that bad, but if your conviction is to stay off Facebook than more power to you, I just really want to see more T90 content.

[@CountingStars333]

Man all companies are as bad as Facebook. It ain't better or worse. People complain about FB while using insta and WhatsApp.

[@Randgalf]

The fact that even a crappy player can win with the vikings speaks tons of their strength as a civ.

[@thoughtful1233]

This is ranked. One of them was going to win. This says very little about their strength as a civ.

[@heroslippy6666]

i would rather play arabia, and i suck at arabia. water combat is rather bland with a lack of different units unlike land. the most common strat i've seen is just navy spam.
