Hey guys! Just in case, if you missed the 1st Battle you can watch it here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJKpgZewZr2CmLM

[@maximomartin2529]

Amazing!

[@Daniel-ci1bf]

Already watched the first masterpiece. Nerve racking as always. INTO THE MEAT GRINDER I SAY, even if I cringe up while watching it performed.

[@OVERLORD-pd7qf]

Play a livestream as ROME

[@tomekbednarek3769]

I sometimes completely don't understand tactics they are using. Many times i have a feeling they are wasting troops for no reason

[@charlesjohnson6777]

Miss an Apollo battle yeah right

[@mamoonarshad304]

Man the people in Alexandria never get a break, they're probably thinking "didnt we just have a big battle a while ago"

[@johny2509]

That too random people come and fight them leave 😂

[@Meerdalf]

Watching Apollo fumble words and get faction names wrong always makes my day.

[@lucasadkins267]

I don't even have to watch it to know Apollo will deliver as always

[@konggattiek637]

Except you do

[@nathanaelreyes5974]

Love your intro presentation! We can feel you made an effort and it was going to be a special battle. Love the tactics employed by both teams!

[@cannonfodder9724]

Back in Alexandria! Epic finale! Again, great commentary and battle. Love the fact that we have a part 2!

[@djrome9828]

What a great battle and some fantastic coverage. I hope this will become a regular with you covering the twl battles! Epic intro btw!

[@daddylonglegs1566]

Great video Apollo! I loved the edits you made in the beginning, very cinematic. Keep up the great work!

[@poedingpastei]

Been subbed since February 2016! Your Third Age videos really helped me through some difficult times (especially your videos in Helm's Deep) after my granddad's passing shortly after I subbed. I was totally hooked on your content, even regularly commenting on an old podcast that you and a friend hosted! Fun times and great memories. It's crazy to think when I began watching you I was in High School, now I'm about to get my Bachelor's Degree in History and Philosophy. Amazing content, keep up the great work! Loving these Rome II commentaries!

[@PixelatedApollo1]

Congrats on the degree. I’m actually going back to school and trying to get a degree in English and Writing

[@poedingpastei]

[@justinwilliams4380]

finally a new tournament I really enjoyed the last series

[@user-Nice-Rice_2468]

gg's to gorilla tactics they went out like chads it was a fun game to play.

[@Parra_Parra]

This was a really peculiar battle in terms of determinijg the victor. No side made any apparent mistakes, it just seemed to naturally turn out this way. Perhaps it's a matter of a superior unit selection by the attackers? Tough to say

[@samanyupalthi]

Peculiar indeed! I feel like the main gate battle ws the most decisive one, Galatia barely mde out of it even though Rome took many casualties they came out on top! Thats because its Romans! Athens and carthage were equal and the cav and archer play removed some depleted units! Galatia vs Rome was the true matchup that got the victory for the Rice Enjoyers!

[@randompillow5146]

The battle was decided at the gatehouse. Galatia got completely overrun by Romans. Athens need to have some more troops on that flank to support. Once Galatia was nearly wiped out, it was basically a 2v1 for Athens besides the Galatian general. Rome did take a lot of damage in that clash too, but they definitely came out of it much better off than Galatia.

[@user-Nice-Rice_2468]

The mistakes the defenders made was defending the gatehouse too long allowing us to get sword side shots on the Galatians and Athens held on to his ammo for to long

[@JamesFox-ci1sr]

Well Athens is definitely an inferior faction to the other 3.

[@randompillow5146]

@@JamesFox-ci1sr indeed. They could have picked Boii still, not sure why they didn’t.

[@illillliiliiilililililiili5630]

i really enjoyed the first 2:00 prepped intro to the fight. it felt clean and well produced 5/5

[@valentinbalbinot5054]

Apollo is treating us with another great Rome II video, and we will answer the call for battle !!!

[@christophermcmanus5103]

This is surprisingly good, will really be enhanced with so co-comms, maybe someone chipping in with some historical facts & tidbits. Rome 2 maps do suck ass though & this is one of the better ones, so prone to just become blurg

[@senseishu937]

blurg? What's that?

[@sohamtidke6026]

Amazing videos Apollo👍

[@gnawstic1682]

What a close fight! The defenders nearly pulled it off

[@Palskyj]

What a finish!!!

Apollo really jinxed the roman at 14:58 😂😂😂

[@brandonclay5328]

Go for the tournament!

[@artemiozavala4591]

@PixalatedApollo If I want to start playing this type of games, do you recommend playing this game as a beginner or which one will you recommend?

[@peenplays4219]

Very nice

[@nicelyg114]

Cant expect a loss from a guy ive been watching for 5 years…

[@random.9238]

the shields litraly blocking arrows should def be a thing in future games, and arrows still go inside if they hit an opening, and if they do shey should hit a body, and if part of the body is armored it doesnt do as much damage. i think his is relatively easy to implement. can be easily done with a team of 5 to 12 people. or even less.

[@calex1801]

Bubinni should have brought Boii

[@charlesjohnson6777]

I need flamming balls of justice. Sweet justice 😂❤

[@bosJad]

Where's the link, ain't in the vid description

[@Lawh]

I once beat this guy who at least considered himself a pro, and I did it with Athens. I can't remember which faction he used, but it was quite an interesting battle I think, since I was totally wasted and thus was making bold moves.

[@janceestukker7787]

Watching the hastati fight alongside legionnairies will always irk me. Amazing video tho

Please do a persistent empires video next 🙏

[@pawelsmok9905]

4:54 I think that they did this, because heavy siege towers have scorpions on top and they shoot at the defenders :)

[@user-Nice-Rice_2468]

hello i played rome in this game, we put the towers there to block the arrow tower so we could put archers behind the towers to fire over without constantly being shot.

Oh... Yeah... 🎉

[@justinmathieu2417]

As a Rome DEI player. Rome fighting with Carthage is very unsettling…

[@senseishu937]

Why so? It's a custom battle right?

[@justinwillingale2086]

My team mate after I asked for everyone to set loose a volly, wouldn't we hit our own men? Yes, I suppose we will hit thers as well, we have reserves

[@davidkunakovsky3155]

RICE ENJOYERS LETS GOOOOOOOOOO

[@domruns9472]

How many people control each team? Seems like too much is going on for one person controlling all the units

[@Harry-ju4pp]

Imagine if the athenians had one more unit. Only one

[@jacobsutton-gb8wg]

Yessir rice enjoyers 😊

[@nathanhull8302]

Wow I love rome 2

[@giuliozunino8305]

As a new player here... Why didn't the defenders pick better factions if they only had to win? Is it because they used better factions before and couldn't use the again?

[@steffens260]

Yes. Throughout the tournament, you can only use a faction once.

[@user-Nice-Rice_2468]

they still had boii available im not sure why they didn't choose it.

[@HyenA806]

You saw the end battle damage delt by Athens, the missile units Athens can bring to a battle are far beyond the barb factions. I knew all the favorable angles and used most of my missile units to their fullest which u can see in the end game results. I felt more comfortable playing a faction where i wouldnt have to just endure getting shot at by 6 elite archers as would have been the case if i took Boii. I wanted us to have ranged superiority and shoot them with high damage dealing missiles.

[@user-Nice-Rice_2468]

@@HyenA806 that makes sense

[@jubjub7673]

Genuine question: why are there not as many community battles from Attila shown here?

[@user-Nice-Rice_2468]

Because atilla is not as popular as rome 2

[@mr.thundercloud5268]

i'm new to TWL but istg wont bigass artillery help (just 1) the defenders?, would literally scare off attackers who tries and use their numbers when it gets close to endgame. although i am new and don't know how costly it is since i've only been playing campaign but can anybody vouch to the idea or is it a bit stupido?

[@KingGrey1]

Liw ur videos

[@ethankite5774]

i want to see you play

[@juanmigueltadlas9727]

I think appolo forget or stopped streaming persistent empire😢

[@beardedwarman335]

Hey, Pixilated Apollo we fought in season 5 of the TWL. My team barely pulled out the victory but was some awesome battles. Amd im planning on creating a team next season and would love to team up if your down?

[@m3dus455]

yes yeah

Well played by the four players (referring to the two videos) and above all congratulations to the winning team. However, for me the competition would be more fun and balanced, if in addition to the scoring system, the use of Rome, Carthage, Egypt, Seleucids and the two strongest factions of the barbarians were prohibited; since in this way the experience of the teams with less common factions would be put to the test and the surprises would be greater (in addition to the fact that it is tiring to see the same factions as always). I would like to see more Pontus vs Illyrians, Arevaci vs Bactria, Sparta vs Iceni, Odrysian vs Armenians, etc.

[@user-Nice-Rice_2468]

if you wish to see more weaker factions look to the earlier battles in the tournament both teams saved the strongest factions for the finals.

[@m3dus455]

thesre are many battles on marketable skills and bubbinni and others that cover all the other battles with the lesser factions as u are only allowed to use a faction once only

[@hereforthecommentsection9451]

That’s dumb, I want to see somebody use Rome in a Rome 2 tournament….

[@Polarisk2106]

Were they not allowed to use pikes? It seems like a waste to go a greek faction and not bring **any** pike units

[@user-Nice-Rice_2468]

pikemen are very easily countered it is very unlikely they would perform well in a tournament scenario
