Round 5... Snowball! (Elagatua vs fyram)

[@JoseMoreno-gu2bf]

Fyram's mistake of moving the infrantry through your vision range, letting you completely deduct his opening was a Death Note moment.

[@choptch4203]

Not even an awbw player but your analysis are always enjoyable to watch, keep it up, and GL for the finals bracket!

[@nikkip46]

Same here. Played it once, won a match 1v2 because my ally left and the opponents refused a draw. It's a good game but the discord is full of transhumanists which put me off from playing.

[@eduardrindt3376]

Damn, that little mistake Fyram did when he moved his infantry through your recon vision had a massive impact. Guessing his opener correctly basically set you up for success. It's brutal how efficiently you punish such a tiny mistake. Well done. Thank you so much for these videos. I just can wrap my head around how you only have about 1k followers, cause it's always a treat to see you analyze the tiniest things so well. We definitelly appreciate the time and effort you're putting into these videos. Thanks again.

1:37:29 Having animations turned on wouldn't show you were the missile fell. However! If you select 'Replay' then 'Log', it will give you this information: "A missile was fired and landed at (x,x)". Even in fog, even before the game ends. Btw, thank you for all of your exquisite videos, they are very precious for fog lovers out there. You are a fantastic teacher.

[@Elagatua]

thanks! i'll remember this for the future!

[@pivotkid908]

log also tells you when an enemy black boat refuels a dived sub in standard, even though repairing dived subs is not shown as an action with the next action arrow. lol edit: log says when enemy dived sub sank too, and in what location

[@MatthewSmithh92]

People are definitely learning watching your videos Elagatua. Awesome job as usual. And yes, it was fun to hear and feel you getting a bit salty due to those very unfortunate rolls hahaha

[@rutherfordgamingofficial]

1:37:08 I think it is possible to see where your missiles land using the log, but I've never tried it so not 100% certain

[@MojoMonkey]

it is, and it's very useful especially against Rachel--it even tells you which type of missile hit where.

[@mooxonsofi]

Great video, really learned something about playing in Fog, the best way to play AWBW

[@alexk9295]

Great videos! Imo the best Advance Wars content on KZbin

[@Breeelax]

Well played and an amazing analysis! Always enjoyable!

[@rutherfordgamingofficial]

This is totally irrelevant to the overall video, but at 7:15 in the test replay, I'm so confused how Von Bolt is missing 200 dollars here on the first day. That shouldn't be possible unless one of the infantry somehow started with 8HP. Now that I think about it, he shouldn't even have his money yet because it's not his turn. Probably some weird replay viewer bug.

[@Elagatua]

yeah probably a replay viewer bug

[@keatonsanborn1430]

Excellent video. This was a great match and really informative.

[@samneal9041]

Great commentary, enjoying this 👍🏽

[@David-vk5sv]

itd be better to use silos so the units dont heal during the example engagement bit

[@mr.s.i6642]

You can't steal the com tower but you can deny it.I had a match where my opponent arty locked the com tower & I Didn't got that com tower for the whole game. You can check the log when watching previous turn replay log will pop up.In the log you can see where your missiles landed.

[@stardrifter2872]

"All 3 Anti Air are in position to kill copters. Not an accident." LMAO! Way to brag while pretending not to haha.

[@pivotkid908]

Time to not identify the opener because I'm not a fog player my first thought was APC opener because of the bottom-right city and how you phrased things but that and recon is excessive to a gamethrowing extent, as you pointed out earlier olaf wants to spam tanks. and APC isn't remotely needed to start capping day 8; the second inf built probably moved full right 3 times, capped the city then moved twice to cap the corner. the interrupt but the cities also not being captured is strange. they must either be strong there or be weak but know you're weak top, but there isn't any way they could know you're weak top yet, right? especially because you're actually strong. they could be sacking an inf to bait you into the wrong conclusion to get you to start denying their two cities then destroy you, but those two cities aren't really deniable. I'll say they're strong top weak bottom, but either way interrupting with a 6-7 and not even a guarantee of a second inf bringing the capping inf to 2 seems like a mistake. they should be capping the city instead

[@Elagatua]

it's kind of a situation with no good answer for olaf; you don't want to give away one of the most contested cities on the map for free so you feel obligated to deny it, but there's no realistic way to prevent me from getting it in the follow up. and the recon situation highlights the central dilemma for olaf; you can't play fog without recons, but olaf recons are just so bad against VB.

[@nikkip46]

​@@Elagatua Feels like he just got outplayed by your preparation and execution and just went full deer in headlights. Would love to see more games of you vs people of your caliber.

[@gratefred3104]

Cant like twice, sry
