Hey guys! There is going to be a huge Playoff Kick off Party that you can watch here - discord.gg/hbw9kxJU?event=1135435516771315712

[@Random-Shtuff-3000]

Pixie PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO I STALL THE EMPIRE 2: GENERALS MOD. I EMAILED YOU. IT SHOULD SAY JOSHUA DREYER.

[@marketableskills5374]

Thank ya homie! Gonna have an all star game and everything. Its gonna be a good time :)

[@Random-Shtuff-3000]

OH COME ON!!

[@markelianshparthi502]

Just an information for you :) Ardiae are not cousins of Pergamom because they are different civilizations. Ardiae are an Ylliric population in the nowdays Albania and Monte Negro, and the pergamom are a mix of Hellenic and Persian population in nowdays west Turkey. So totally different culture and ethnicity.

[@PixelatedApollo1]

@@markelianshparthi502 Yes, but I wasnt talking about their backgrounds. I was talking about their play style.

[@goreaalex3413]

THAT CAV CHARGE REALLY MADE MY JAW DROP!!! i really tought you won after that charge

[@Adaman135]

Some of them went flying!

[@GryphonX0411]

Should’ve charged in ages ago tbh 😂 but it was a good defence

[@collieuk]

A better performance here, you can tell Apollo has been practicing. The level of micromanaging required at this level is probably a bit out of his current skill set as he tends to lose focus. You can tell he is more comfortable being the non committal support role in a 3 v 3 but props for the valiant effort and for commentating without giving anything away. These players are all bloody good. I can't even micromanage against the AI without misclicking a hundred times. Hopefully Apollo will enter another tournament and have better fortune!

[@randompillow5146]

Close, but no cigar. Would’ve loved to see you win this to see if you could win the attack to to make the playoffs, but props to the Ursas for pulling off a tough victory.

[@destroyerinazuma96]

Very good performance for both teams. Looking forward to see how Ursas fairs in future matches.

[@mayeulcarpentier4100]

GO CRIMSON CHICKENS!!! ONLY GREAT PLAYERS,WITH GREAT FACTIONS,GREAT SKILLS AND EPIC LOGOS !!!

[@thomasclarke847]

Like you said if your scorpion had not played up that would of been the difference

[@JustAwesomePlain]

Sucks to see you go I thought we were gunna have that miracle ✌🏼✌🏼 better luck next season. Such fun videos to watch

[@BluffyMoo]

Hard to believe the CC came in last place in Group C, especially going in with such optimism. 🤔 Props to "ear-sas, the bears!," as PA consistently called them.

[@samanyupalthi]

Ursas wont make it far though as they have some Expert teams to go against!

[@robertabblebaum7813]

That seemed like the best you guys have done! Great job!!

just about to watch the battle and dont yet know the result, come on u chickens ! grabbin snacks and looking forward to the media highlight of the week....lol why am i nervous/excited im not actaully playing

[@randompillow5146]

Ruvaak absolutely should’ve left his thureos fighting the agema gen at the end. That caused your units to start losing the fight and they immediately broke. Might’ve cost your team the battle right there.

[@jairo7037]

The units that immediately broke were about to be flanked by peltasts tho

[@laurentiustefanardeleanu6655]

Hope you continue casting this tournament even if you guys are out. Good luck with the next one

[@Chris-hq7mb]

Wonderful video as always

[@helmetmcbarin]

This channel could seriously benefit from showcasing new player battles, the competitive battles are just so predictable now, new players would really make for some entertaining battles it also is a lesson for viewers by giving apollo a chance to give feedback on gameplay. I just think it would be really beneficial for his channel after having seen other channels gain success from showing new player gameplay like in age of empires

[@Lyaagato]

i remember watching a new players battle with their blob of praetorian guard.. ngl that really fun to watch

[@TheCasterlyLion]

This tournament has been the best thing from your channel since BIGGUS ( Biggus was a banger). Freaking awesome!

[@Joemamashouse69]

Where was Gondor when the Crimson Chickens got eliminated?

[@fabiokoy]

A defeat, but a valiant defeat nonetheless. Great job there Apollo & Ruvaak. And great videos!

[@8-bithades305]

I feel like you guys did almost everything right here, just the cholchian general was op that is all

[@destroyerinazuma96]

The general eating infantry reminded me of the 3rd age Medieval 2 mod where elite elf units can decimate hundreds with only a token few losses.

[@gruffythrone988]

Fantastic match great play

[@christopherjames5895]

Great battle well played all !

[@peterderidder9922]

MOST important is you had lots of fun ! If the otther team is better you dont mind to loose if you had FUN . You joined and learned for the next tournament. We youre vieuwers had also lots of fun ! So thank you apollo to letting us join the tournament. Thanks for all the nice vids !!

[@kaupii]

Bad luck with the scorpion there - you’d have bagged it otherwise. Thanks for all the fun you’re bringing! :)

[@janheymans266]

Dommage next time you will advance to the play-offs with the power of the crimsons chickens and God

[@frizzlebob1210]

dont want to throw shade but the Ursas player soup i belived he pushed through with his general may of been a pursuit of a broken unit but not sure, what the rules on that if he did

[@Soup-ej6bu]

Units in hoplite wall act janky sometimes

[@frizzlebob1210]

@@Soup-ej6bu Thanks for clarifying that, i did think something like a glitch was the problem cos you aint gonna cheat in a tournament. sorry for calling you out but i dont have the game personally so i wouldnt know bugs and things. Good luck in the tournament

[@thejoe1362]

Can you please cover the second battle, we have to see how all the group c battles ended

[@PixelatedApollo1]

It honestly the most boring battle

[@milesfortis1878]

It was one hour of hoplites fighting in lines, really not that intresting

[@PaganoLEM]

I swore you had this! 😭 Good try brother. Till next season.

[@rm7338]

I think the Crimson Chickens did improve a lot throughout the course of the tournament. It would be nice if tournaments were a lot more common.

[@HyenA806]

From day one of their practice up till now they are a completely new team, deff playoff worthy. Unlucky in the end, 2 games came down to the wire

[@therealhotdogmanz]

I thought for sure you had that win but that agema spear general would not die

[@lesboyce753]

Would be nice if you said what maps are being used. Thanks for your videos.

[@philsharron1184]

what a fight

[@diogocoelho739]

Gostei do torneio pena teres sido eliminado apollo, mas desta vez jogaste bem melhor do que da última vez.

[@TheSupremeNuggeteer]

21:19 Apollo always looking on the bright side. Usually.

[@odynith9356]

Was a good battle.

[@maximomartin2529]

Cool

[@conradmcelroy9321]

I think taking your scorpion crew around back into your base was a great idea but I think you should have gone and grabbed the actual scorpion as you had a chance to do so

With Chickens we stand, as tenders we fall

Will you be showing the rest of the TWL playoffs

[@chillkrote7877]

There was a lot of Push through Form ursas in my opinion

[@skyrimboy37]

Go Apollo & Ruvaak!!!!

[@TommyDangs]

To anyone about to leave a mean spirited comment: I BETTER SEE YO ASS IN NEXT YEAR’S TOURNEY TOP 4

[@charliekerry9083]

The fight turned in their favour at around 18:30 when you changed your lines by the gate. You moved back didn’t have another unit ready to plug the gap and they just leaked through. You got some good javelins off but they got into the courtyard area and behind your other lines then it all went downhill 😢

[@rafidog]

31:58 Looks like a "decisive" push-through since the general is completely surrounded, manages to breaks a sword unit and greatly damage the spear units... Am I seeing things, is that legit?

[@HyenA806]

all legit here, the gen didnt push through it just started kissing the pontic sword cuz of the hoplite wall formation, didnt go through it was still surrounded

[@rafidog]

​@@HyenA806 thanks for the clarification!

[@scottelliott6709]

Damn!! Great battle but gutted CC is out !! Next time !

theres no better feeling than losing after giving your everything great job apollo

I would say winning after giving your all is better…

I didn’t realise Ardieieaeiei (no clue how to spell it) was a Hellenistic faction. I thought they were barbarian.

[@nafg115]

I love this. I wish I was a commander at medieval times or ancient era

[@davidkunakovsky3155]

Charging 3 depleted tired units into Agema general threw this fight

[@lijunasuguerra6424]

Is there anyone here plays on SEA region? I want to play multiplayer so bad but all the. connection is weak

[@alexzuno4070]

You just need to practice your micro mate. You know the mechanics of the game, but you need to be quicker. I would keep units grouped for certain areas of the battle. Helps stay more organized

[@Martin-gd7vy]

In other matches the scorpions got about 100 kills, so an extra 70 could have made the difference

[@Severinate]

At kzbin.info/www/bejne/al6yh3aAeNeIZrs, Pixie gave up the centre and allowed their units to flood through the lines while waiting for his Thuros to throw their javelins. If he'd kept that line, it could have been a win.

[@Untolddead]

I'm not an expert on this game but after watching all your games I feel like you worry too much about getting perfect ranged attacks. But in the end you don't even get to use the ammo as you get killed by the enemies ranged units. It's far better to fire and kill enemies then to stand there and die waiting for the perfect shot. In my opinion. Any ways good battle! Better luck next time.

[@TreeTop27]

YOOOOOOO FIRE LETS GO! First🤑

[@alzek7165]

Is it really TW: Warmmer2? HOW?

[@russell6075]

You know pergamons strength is javallins so why let them in the breach so they could use them against you? They suck outside the wall so keep them there

[@williamlewis3106]

What was this battle map called again?

[@HyenA806]

Eildon

[@nathanhull8302]

You needed to be giving an attack order to your hoplite general. They won’t kill anyone unless you press attack. Those noble hoplites are deadly and would beat any other unit in this battle handily

[@testicule_boy4247]

Many players just place their hoplites waiting for enemy charges without even shield formation and expect them to defend and kill

[@chervue7664]

Cav charge couldve been used in a better way, instead of straight charge to there death, think they couldve save the day, but still a good fight

[@anthonysantos3629]

Where are the pikes? Are there pikes in Rome 2? I feel like there is always at least 1 unit of pikes.

[@radicaljacolb2175]

its like the gorilla bois did. dont just let that 1 unit break. use it to its full potential. dont just play a strategy, play the GAME and work it like a fittle.

Hi

[@thecoocheemonster]

Dishonor on your family

[@jdog2597]

I want to support you apollo, but I hate being emotionally invested when you have those silly scorpion mistakes. As a fan of the crimsons it’s rather upsetting :(. A few errors in the other matches too :(

[@jdog2597]

However I thoroughly enjoyed you playing! Keep playing And BACK STRONGER!

[@randompillow5146]

The best way to keep your scorpion from moving is to fire at an area, not a specific unit. The reason they moved up was because the unit you had them shooting at ran out of their line of sight so they tried to move up to get line of sight again.

[@Belovedfire]

I don’t know how you keep losing💀 but it was a great game🙂
