Wouldnt be a Gyle cast if he didn't miss the first 4 nukes in the replay. I really wish he would have a second person in his ear as he is watching the replay mentioning this stuff as he streams.

[@donbionicle]

Yes please! Gyle really needs a co-host, even if all they do is keep their eyes glued to the minimap.

[@SecularStrategy]

A nice lady saying "Strategic launch detected" would really make all the difference.

Or just edit the game later and show a mini shot of explosion so show the things missed. Seen a red alert guy do something like that to great effect

[@donwanna3906]

Too bad there is no clear audible notification when a strategic launch is detected.

"There goes the second nuke" ... says Gyle after seeing like the 6th nuke in the game

[@WraithMagus]

32:48 Hyper teled after the SACU and killed it, then died from bombers. That's why Sockfull was talking about why his "RAS boy" was murdered. It was a trap where Sock left his SACU exposed to bait a telesnipe on the wrong target. Also, totally ignoring the "Strategic Launch Detected" until it blows up, and then ignoring the nuke that sails past at 40:02 or that it hits at 40:13. Takes Gyle to not notice a couple nukes... Or the one at 42:20... Or all the chat talking about taking down SMDs... 1:05:03 You can see Weck tele-snipes Signal. Odin had been in the top-right corner, then teleports basically into the nuke that just landed on the far south area, and very close to a bug that finishes him off. (Can see him on the bottom at 1:05:12. No they aren't Ctrl-Ks.)

[@MrPhilip201]

Ah now I see. Odin dying got me confused.

[@beetheimmortal]

And that's why you use the Highlight ACU mod, or at least double-check your tele-target.

I have to say... I got offended by that quite a bit xD While searching what killed the fist ACU (Nuke) he missed the next nuke.

[@bobbinsgaming3028]

Had a long, exhausting day at work. Got home, put the kids to bed, cooked dinner, and now my efforts are rewarded with a freshly baked Gyle cast. Feels like it was all worth it!

[@patrickbick2064]

Put the kids to bed before cooking tea, you are on a whole new level of evil 😈 🤣

Wouldnt be a Gyle cast if he didn't miss the first 4 nukes, most of the air battles, most of the sea battles, and the first few experimentals.

[@erichluepke855]

I love Gyle, 53 mins Gyle is talking about Yolo-na being up and how nobody can see it and Team 1 is all scared coz they are feeling a Scathis hammering their bases :D

[@badAim2]

Good god, you haven't missed as much in any other cast as in this one, and I watched them all. Still, enjoyable game.

[@rabuobo]

You can out spam a Yolona Oso, you need at least 8 anti nuke tho and you seeing it as soon as possible helps. Also Gyle 2nd Nuke out now"....5 nukes into the game😄

[@skuzzn815]

Actually i think 6 SMDs are already enough. Yolona is not thaaat hard to defend against. Sad that they didnt manage to do that.

[@carlod5818]

@@skuzzn815 i think even 6 smds is only for heavily assisted yolo, i remember 4 smds can hold out if some are loaded at the start vs unassisted yolo, given neither stalls

[@henry7696]

@@carlod5818 yeah 4 can just about keep up. but as soon as one other nuke is thrown at them they wont be able to keep up. also i find the value of the yolona is where you can totally obliterate your enemies expansion across the map. they may be able to spam enough smd`s at home base but they wont be able to do that anywhere else

[@Unity721]

Another day, another fantastic cast. Keep it up!

[@StalwartTirith]

We _need_ more 8v8 games where everyone no one dies in the first few minutes. The amount of chaos and full scale warfare you get from the amount of units from having 8 players on both teams is just intense and I love it!

Your seething disgust for all things Cybran gives me a chuckle every time.

[@algebraizt]

Seeing the Yolona Oss clear the map is such a satisfying feeling, like a pressure washer or something

[@TheEarlofBronze1]

MVP was definitely white. Without his unbreakable hold on his side of the channel, and that clutch play with the 4 experiementals, team 1 would have capitulated from the immense pressure from their bottom pond. Without white, there was almost nothing that would have stopped the land pressure before the Yolona could be used effectively

[@alexwindy3]

2 EPICS back to back gyle is spoiling us.

[@JS-mw2nf]

just what i needed, a gyle cast!

[@michaelbamberger882]

Daddy chad ate a nuke that you completely missed despite the fact that they were discussing where to fire it in chat for 3 mins before it got launched 'There goes the second nuke' only correct if you don't count the 3+ other that you missed

[@nootherdestiny]

I think he missed the first 3 nukes. 4th one launched he called it the first. While I enjoy the the casting, some priority needs to be given to nuke launches as they can easily kill coms. He was focused on some early experimental pushes, but completely ignored 3 nukes fired during, and missed a commander kill because of it.

[@michaelbamberger882]

@@nootherdestiny I'm amazed he manages to miss them tbh it all other audio gets reduced somewhat while a loud voice announces the launch of a nuke. Kinda hard to miss imo.

[@rainbowpheanix]

I love it when you use free cam to show how epic the game looks after all these jears. Keep it up!

[@StalwartTirith]

Can we just take a moment to appreciate the amount of teamwork on show here? The team doing all the nuke launches did an absolutely amazing job at coordination and showed far greater teamwork than I see in nearly all of these videos, even the ones involving "pros". Definitely wish Gyle would take a moment to read the in-game chat from time to time (though with everything going on in the game I know how much that'd be asking), because the scoffing about lack of SMD really misses the best bits of this game. There was a surprising lack of SMD because they were coordinating teammates to do things like telesnipe SMD and also focused on using the nukes to damage the other teams eco if they didn't think they could hit an ACU. Again love this video and how well they played.

[@lesliegrayson1722]

"By the 37 minute mark you would think everyone would have build anti-nuke in preparation for this" Or from the reality that 4 nukes had already been thrown at them by this point..... Never change Gyle.

[@F_I_R_E.]

one of these days, I pray that the double Billy nuke combo will rear its explosive head again. Its a old strategy me and my friend would use to remove roughly anything we looked at far before nukes were able to do so. Very good at taking out coms under shields as well. We need a FaF version of team wars, were each time or side picks only one faction to play were it would be Billy nuke haven.

Speaking from experience ;)

that snip at 36:30 was glorious. if she had have sent 1 less tac missile, or if there had have been 1 more TMD built, the the game would have gone very differently

[@akulasturgeon1580]

Appreciate you Gyle

[@ArawnOfAnnwn]

Trust Gyle to miss the first three nukes of the game lol! Also I disagree about telesnipes - not only do they have a perfectly functional counter, but they're also just exciting and fun. The real cancer of the game imo is T3/T4 arty spam, which has no long-term counterplay and is boring af to both watch and play against as it slowly wins the game for you from a full turtled position. Novax spam has the same issue.

[@henry7696]

i feel a tele inhibitor would give away too much about the enemy base as well. you could just try to tele into a spot and be told you cant, which reveals that they have a structure without you having to do any kind of scouting

[@JLH111176]

I no expert but in 8 vs. 8 if full share is on it seems better to teleport snipe T3 energy over ACU ?

This game was so ahead of its time.

[@Sarcof227]

Watching the Yolona Oss spam out super nukes was frustrating as a viewer. I can only imagine how unfortunate it was for Team 2 to have to deal with. Seems like once it's up and firing, unless the Seraphim player is being heavily pressured rather than safe in the back line, it's game over for the other team.

[@Vantlor]

This game was taxing to play in - I missed some of my own teams nukes!

[@Bridgeburner56]

[@Luke-vt2kg]

YAY, It's bath and Glye time!

[@patrickbick2064]

Same lol

[@StalwartTirith]

SPOILER Okay that should be enough space to have the show more thing. Anyway at 36:06: While watching these replays and playing the game myself, I feel more and more that TML snipes need to have the counter buffed up. It seems ridiculous that there aren't tml launch alerts for situations where multiple are closing in on your ACU while surrounded by TMD. As it stands literally the only reason snipes at this stage work is that the player is distracted. So despite being surrounded by the buildings specifically meant to counter those snipes there's basically nothing you can do about it short of being hyperfocused on your ACU nonstop. Just feels like they should do something to have nearby TMD give some sort of alert so that the player isn't more or less forced into focusing on a single unit. Edit: 39:40 "STRATEGIC LAUNCH DETECTED!" *two seconds later* "Whoa what happened how'd they die?!" :P

[@Malte133]

Maybe, instead of blocking Teleports there could be a Structure that slows the Teleport charging by ~80% if it targets into its AoE? Maybe also add an automatic warning on the Incoming Teleport?

[@nowayimsleeping]

There's actually a mod for that, mayhem. It has anti teleport towers and such.

[@SomeOne-iq5zy]

Blind loyalty is more idiotic than a single criticism which is easily justified in this case. I can understand missing something when there is a lot going on but the things Gyle was focusing on at key moments were mundane in comparison. How many more cues than a very audible "strategic launch detected", the chat discussing it and a very obvious nuclear symbol flying across the screen and mini map does it take..... There is only one blind person involved here and he has about 10 years experience...

Replays would be so much easier and better to watch if all players on a team had the same colour. E.g red vs blue. Having multiple red shades on different teams and blues and yellows on both teams is jarring and hard to follow when it gets busy. Tbh it’s probably not possible with the limitations of the game, but would be good

[@blank-dj1rc]

You have no idea how angry it made me that Babushka died at 36:06, UEF TMD's are just so incredibly bad that it's not even funny. 7 tactical missiles were fired across the pond and 1 ship with TMD fired 2 volleys and killed off 1 of the missiles, fired another volley and damaged another (I'm guessing to half health) but during 36:00 that missile dies (it's unclear if something shot it or damaged missiles die off after a second), it's possible that that one ship, took out 2 missiles itself. That leaves 5 missiles for 3 TMD's to destroy. 5 missiles are flying in, the 3 TMD's lock on and destroy 1 of them, 4 remaining. Before the 4 missiles reach the commander, all 3 TMD defences fire off another volley. There are now 3 tactical missiles remaining. Commander goes boom. Despite firing off 6 shots, only 2 missiles get destroyed. So, I actually done some testing comparing different races TMD's etc, it turns out that the further away a tactical missile is fired, the less time TMD's will have to shoot at it, this is because the missiles would have started their descent alot sooner giving the TMD"s less time to shoot at them as they're already pretty close to the ground. Anyway, fired 42 missiles at the aeon volcano, it chewed up 41 of them and the last one flew off course because of the ball it fired. 3 zappers would have stopped 4 missiles. 3 seraphim TMD's would have stopped 4 missiles (depending on range fired at) 4 buzzkills would barely be enough. There were times 3 missiles still got through. You've no idea how many times I wish I could just build the governor on land (t2 cruiser ship) because at least then, UEF would finally have some good TMD. /rant

I don't get why the Mercy has limited fuel in the first place, I reckon it should just slow down like any other airplane and have to wait to refuel. And also be usable on aircraft carriers and Czars.
