Outback Octagon - FINALLY, The REAL Island Map!

[@joshwaihi]

Feature request: start the game with the leaderboard of outback octagon. Love the game. No idea who is winning the overall tournament.

It would also be nice to maybe have short interviews with the players after to explain their reasoning. I’m sure it would be a couple of funny backstab stories.

This format is the absolute best. So entertaining. That’s what Aoe is about.

Hey Aussie, I think the Outback Octagon Series deserve their own playlist on your channel. I'ts a very enjoyable series and I don't want to be missing out on any!

oh my god salami just stood there with all his villagers instead of repairing the wonder. HUGE bruh moment

[@agourent]

[@Aarlaeoss]

@@actuallyKriminell Not a bad idea

[@DNeonLamp]

Bee giving Averly and Zerton a mutual enemy instead of just focusing on his expansion to Crackety's island was an act of total suicide. Created an alliance where there was brewing conflict and still pissed off Crackety making it 3v1.

[@mazhiwezakizo3513]

at the end, i just couldn't figure out why zertan didn't go to the island south of his home island and build a dock down there to further increase his trade power, or even just the south end of his home island, he could have been lightyears more efficient with his trade there, but regardless, he pulls off such a giga-chad win.

[@diggoran]

I had the same thought, but maybe it was to prevent anyone noticing how many traders he had. Anytime someone had a very noticeable trade line, they were a target. Zerton won partly because he was underestimated the whole game.

[@woodlands_]

Wow, Zerton didn't even build a single warship on a dedicated water map where the majority of combat is naval and he still wound up winning in the end.

[@shafaitahir4728]

The attrition and fights for resources really makes these games so suspenseful never has a movie occupied me this much for so long than this has with the amazing commentary by both.

[@Cad3ncee]

Can't believe you guys kept me engaged for am hour and a half straight. Great game and great casting. GG.

[@allwhatyouwant]

Can't you guys take a cut out from the stream of one of the players in game chat? So we could see what they're chatting

[@MrResiman]

Absolutely brilliant series, can't wait for the rest ! So many variables but watch for the sleeper.

[@BlumenkohlBroccoli1]

Nobody will ever watch 1vs1 events anymore, this is just so much more awesome

[@davidpereira5969]

The thing with HRE in these island maps is the relics. With regnitz, if you go around the map picking relics, you will get a very good and safe gold eco for the rest of the game. But if you garrison relics in keeps, not only do they get more armor, damage and line of sight, they also get +20% range, meaning they can hit baochads from a distance. This is what makes the elzbach so damm good, its a shame the 33% damage reduction isnt global (i really wish it whould be) but put a relic and all emplacements on that thing and it will not go down easily

[@struikbeest]

I wonder if they think its worth putting the rellics in the dock as wel

[@jaredhomola3066]

@@struikbeest definitely is as the ships you don’t lose with the advantage out weighs the cost to replace

Is it just me KAUP keep throwing the game when he already on the most advantageous spot on this tournament?

[@pharaohthutmosis7803]

that szalami didnt even notice his wonder was being attacked while he was focusing on landing his troops. makes me mad, and i think he was too when he saw. what a timing, but also poor awareness, one emergency repair immideatly clicked when it took damage coupled with the troops and vills on the island and it would have been ez def

With which exact mods/ tuning packs and settings is Outback Octagon running? I want these cool diverse water maps in my Megarandom games too.

[@theswedenguy4647]

Also curious to know

[@Osmiumism]

Island maps are part of Megarandom but with a very low chance, maybe 10%.

[@davidpereira5969]

imo at the end szlami and crackedy should have teamed and try a landmark snipe on zerton. szlami had the res for bombards, crackedy had the navy, and if they succeded, it whould be #1 for szlami and #2 for crackedy, on top of 3 points for whoever finished zerton. but crackedy ends with with #2 anyways so gg

[@SeigmeyerFreud]

szlami could have even agreed to delete his wonder.

[@davidpereira5969]

@@SeigmeyerFreud maybe, he did manage to continue a very efficient trade route after zerton controled both sacred site islands, he could take out crackedy in a 1v1

These ffa tourneys have to become more regular or a league or something. This game was the most exciting one so far and the Nomad FFA are by far the best games aoe4 has to offer. I love seeing the different strats and landmarks everygame.

[@alperenelbasan7909]

If Szalami just deleted his wonder it would give all the attention to Sacred Sites and they would decap it together then he could go for landmark snipe on Crackedy with his insane eco. Not sure 100% but he could have managed it I think.

[@Destroviper]

This is actually a big brain move

[@dschoene57]

[@Bingusman]

Bruh Salami drop the ball so hard there, he could have Emergency repair the wonder, plus villager repair while bombards focus on those barracks instead of just looking at them. Delay the attack on the sacred sites and easily clean that green island later without getting distracted by the blue player. Big messed up right there. I was hoping for a HRE winning on mega random lol he had it but drop it very bad

[@JorenMathews]

I think even if he saves his wonder, the sacred site victory goes the same way.

Idk I think the co casters pick up on more game changing events than Drongo

[@JL-vk1rs]

lmao i thought the same

[@kaiptn1211]

when the co-caster wants to elaborate on a more global or unrelated to the action topic it’s important to stick to a sort of elevator pitch style of telling your point within 15-20 seconds to give Drongo the chance to get back into the action that he sees unfolding on his screen. Because let’s be real here : We are all here for Drongo , he is clearly the giga chad of AoE4 casters .
