Capes & Rams (Low Elo Legends)

[@MegaIorex]

23:36 Farms don't fit evenly around mills on purpose. You're supposed to use that empty space for a tower and Jose is the first person to realise this

[@benjamindubois2885]

Teutons towers have more space, so this one tower can garrison the 8 farmers working around it. Genius!

[@RaidSpinel]

He is truly ahead of his time. God put that space for towers and he found it.

[@WackyConundrum]

The insane savant-like hypermemory of T90 never ceases to amaze me. Tristan remembers a game of a random low elo dude from a couple of years ago. He remembers, on what map he played, in which corner he started, his aggressiveness (defensive / aggressive), what units he liked to make, how he defended with buildings. I barely remember my games from yesterday, bro...

[@nocigar7730]

I've always thought of the top 100 players sort of akin to Chess grand masters, and now that you mention it they seem to have similar game recall abilities.

[@vileluca]

17:25 in fairness doesnt building buildings next to trees effectively limit the number of units that can attack it at once?

[@stevencromb5589]

When in one stream T90 gets a month's worth of content 😂 thanks to all the LEL

[@TheMightyNaryar]

i haven't even watched the video but the presence of teutonic knights inside of rams already makes it good. This I am sure of

[@KyriosHeptagrammaton]

I think Jose learned about counter units, but remembered it backwards. His armies were almost always superior but he took the engagements int he worst possible order consistently.

[@RheaMainz]

You're right! Could work in real life at least..! Heavy cav beats halberdiers since halberds don't have the length to compete with heavy lances, and one probably didn't want to be in a wooden ram when shot at by bullets due to wood shrapnel. Trenches aren't a thing here, but infantry with trenches or even forest beat artillery and gunpowder while horses are a bit riskier even if they are faster.

[@taylankammer]

As a noob who started playing only recently, let me offer my perspective on why Blue hasn't attacked Red for so long: After clearing up the forward army & production buildings, I would think to myself: "Damn, if he had that much stuff forward, imagine what his base must look like. I probably only won that battle because that wasn't his full army, and the army I've got left after defending myself surely couldn't scratch his base, so I better focus on my eco and build up a really big army now before doing anything." After watching some of my replays and learning more about the game, I noticed how wrong that mentality is, because there could be absolutely nothing behind that forward army.

[@giordanoivani7192]

we always start as Low Elo Legends somehow, but watchig ourself in replay to see what we doing wrong is a nice method to rank up that F**** ELO! ;)

[@wandraak58]

Ram+Cape is in theory a great comp, rams ignore ranged dmg and capes ignore melee :D but the micro to utilize it has to be there (And Ram loaded with capes moves faster than capes)

[@quattro_B7]

In Germany we call the gameplay rams filled with teutonic knights "fette Rouladen" (big german beef rolls) And we think thats beautiful

[@Incommensurabilities]

LMAO that's awesome

[@giordanoivani7192]

i always though if your villager is harvesting something and you tell them to do something else the resources carried were ALWAYS lost, thank you t90 we always got thing to learn by you

[@aliceindotaland9026]

imagine if the rams went on the organ guns with the capes inside

[@BasedGodFlashy]

This one is actually mind-blowing because there's so much they are doing wrong here that I never do and yet I'm around the same elo as them. I just suck lol

[@Omni0404]

32:46 Those are some beautiful looking farms. A+

[@Geothesponge111]

You've heard of Capped Rams, now it's time for Caped Rams

[@nullnullnullnull-i2m]

i dont even play AOE and i love these

[@andrzejwilk7316]

.... i would love to play AoE2. but i have not in more than a year now. ladder anxiety is a bitch

[@akaMaddy]

Never too late to begin with it. 😉

[@bobcobb158]

@@andrzejwilk7316 just gotta go into every game trying to do better than last game, and not caring about the outcome. Easier said than done obviously. But personally when I'm approaching every game with the mindset of just 'improve', usually focusing on 1 or 2 things I want to do better, then even if I lose I'm not too fussed about it. I treat all games like that though.. shooters/rts etc. more enjoyable to play that way, at least for me.

[@burnthompson286]

​@@andrzejwilk7316 Do what I do and play like these guys do, and exist at a low elo! Sometimes you get clapped but sometimes you're the one clapping so its not so bad

[@Storm-1.]

The problem is without a high elo the game is unplayable the normal lobbys all want people on elo 1000 and above and are full with even higher elo players and elo is just frustrating when you go fast age 3 your ass is raided if you go scouth rush they are walld up and go one age 3 and overrun you with knights.

[@oldbuddyolpal9859]

The last online game of AoE2de I played was on nomad, and I started by placing two houses as usual, then had no TC. I alt-f4 and have been watching T90 ever since.

[@hebronferrier9101]

This was some amazing casting. Love the energy

[@tomtenthij5676]

13:23 Okay, That did blow my mind!! 😮😮

[@Hunoa44]

Absolutely lovin the series,i might wanna go to LEL myself when i return to AoE2 cause i just watched all the LEL and unique legends of T90 but last played the game 2 years ago

[@Jesusrauda25]

What a great LEL match. Kudos to both players

[@g0lgrim1]

NICE... uploaded 7 minutes ago. Never was this early... love the Low Elo Legends. :3 Somehow seeing players who are not professionells is way more enjoyable for me. And the best if its diplomacy with many players and much backstabbery!

[@manowar200]

The year is 2112 and the guy still producing Elite teutonic knights and the portuguese still producing the organ guy 🤣🤣

[@RizzardOrb]

Petition for T90 to organise a Low Elo Championship - i wanna see jorge get serious :)

[@juamont]

T90 has the memory of an elephant

[@tomtenthij5676]

48:06 Epic Duel!! 🎉🎉🎉

[@WhiteWolfeHU]

If 2 pros clicking up 2 feudal is common then 2 noobs clicking up to imp at the same time is a fricken unicorn!

[@FacialVomitTurtleFights]

That vil micro around the berries to look for a non-existant boar was INSAINE!

[@johnjackson3349]

Classic LEL, so satisfying

[@TenkaEmpiresFFA]

What an amazing game! I don't know why I enjoy this so much more than some S tier tournaments!

[@jn1mrgn]

I play Megarandom all the time and see the double berries, and this is the only instance in which I've ever seen two sections close together so you can put a mill between them. And he doesn't do that.

[@abee127]

The buildings are next to the trees so they dont have to move the wood as far

[@joshskinner4883]

Anyone ever play Star Wars galactic battlegrounds? I miss that rts so bad man! Wish there was a remake or reboot...

[@Ryan-mw9pm]

I’ve had a long day and couldn’t sleep. The bat signal has been answered

[@KalaansImperium]

In regard to the attacking eco; for me its the worry that if I raid t heir eco, I would lose the main fight cos I'd need those horses for the main fight

[@LordBenji1287]

We need a Spirit of the Law investigation into that -1 hp on headbanger’s castle.

[@lars9925]

Berries are temporary, but farms are forever.

[@ExtremeFighter]

Gotta Loooove Low Elo Legends ❤

[@NerdGlassGamingPA]

21:00 Generally If a French word ends in C, R, F or L the final letter is pronounced. Otherwise last letter in a word isn't pronounced in French. ( etudiant would say like etudian doesn't say the "t" at the end) In Spanish that word is José (J is pronounced as H ) and the last letters are pronounced too.

[@ScireSpire]

Wow! A 4080 :) For AOE2.

[@nathangamble125]

Jose: gets insanely lucky berry spawn Also Jose: doesn't use it to his advantage. Do not abuse unfair map generations. Be like Jose.

[@scootalong4254]

The crazy thing is that Jose could have easily taken that fight if he had taken all his nights out of his rams and engaged with his whole army at once rather than sending groups of ten to be shot down over and over

[@MrStevenSpeelberg]

I’m nervous to play online, because even in the TINIEST chance he finds my games, I will be judged online forever with Tristan’s words of wisdom 😳

[@dannyosullivan1403]

Such a painful watch however I don’t know what I’d do without them.

[@juniorjunior3608]

Jose sent his units slowly into a meat grinder. It was extremely painful to watch

[@WackyConundrum]

No way, Jose!

[@chiamus6673]

in chinese community we address jose as “carpet dude”

[@indraallian6371]

Fun game I cheered for hose 😛 😎 Thanks T90!

[@benedictjajo]

In Portuguese, Jose is pronounced with an 'JO' as in Joseph instead of "HO" like they do in Spanish.

[@root_squash]

"Caped rams"...nuff said.

[@IIIAnchani]

I still play like that xD I still build an AI army and march gloriously either to victory or death. Yep, I'm garbage and I play AOE2 simply for the fun of doing exactly that. Who needs build orders? The only sad thing is that AI enemies don't build huge armies usually, but send forth like companies of 10 to 20...

[@quattro_B7]

Same here lol

[@user-hl2vh2ip8d]

Still if you want to build 10 Farms at once it makes sense to drop all the wood so you dont have to "tricklefarm" :D

[@tominoakachudak]

Mono trees turned out = ❤

[@flipflierefluiter5665]

True Gentleman's game

[@Rcoutme]

7:50 Why did Portugal make so many mills?

[@VechsDavion]

For blue, putting a single stable on infinite build scouts and putting the rally point onto red's farms would have made that game so much easier. For red, hugging the edge of the map, or going south west and sending his rams in and sniping TC's would have been useful to stall blue. Red lost because he just kinda sat around with his military and let them get fed to organ gun deathball. Like, two onagers would have gone such a long way.

[@RambinoYT]

T90! PLEASE HOST ANOTHER 2V2 WORLD CUP! WITH ALL THE TALENT THAT IS NOW IN AOE 2 THAT KIND OF TOURNAMENT WOULD BE NUTS!

[@ryzziktrognesou1]

Don't CAPS dude

[@depressedespresso3928]

To me, attacking army vs army only, without touching the eco if not for the very last minute, it's the only way to play

[@onikoneko]

Raiding is for people who aren't overwhelmed and panicking while playing. I'd raid if I were capable of anything other than going ohpoopohpoopohpoop whenever I hit any sort of resistance

[@LordZaamus]

So, after the legend of Trihouse, the legend of Treehouse?

[@derekewen735]

I remember when vils wouldn't even automatically work after building a mill or camp...

[@nathanfranks1476]

That was painful at times, but as a whole was actually a pretty good LEL- and it was even below my standard of 600 (imo,, when its lower than this that, games are usually just too frustrating/boring and the cast devolves into non aoe stuff super quick) but this one was an oulier 👍🏻

[@alexeschen1849]

HC5 was hype! But man I love me some LEL!!!

[@Yurikon3]

Capes and Rams... Must be Spanish campaign then.

[@pumppupappi]

t90 like that castle maybe finished with 1 less HP, my towncenter also once got up with HALF the HP ?? it was on fire and nothing attacked it since the map was michi too

[@Specoups]

Jose threw more times than I can count on my fingers. What a shame.

[@knightf3op]

I played against joesmiguel's Teutons a couple months ago. I dream of one day being a low elo legend but I'm actually starting to improve unfortunately.

[@flamingosedai1820]

Is Hardy a mindreader or something? T90 gives the wrong Elo and Hardy still finds the video Lol. Shout out to Hardy!

[@vileluca]

TEUTONS? time to CRUSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADE

[@Storm-1.]

Its really a shame that turks are so good against teutons. Its not Historicall accurate because german crusaders completle wiped the floor with the turks.

[@vileluca]

@@Storm-1. I agree, Teutonic Knights should have gunpowder resistance

[@scottward3638]

Can you please do low elo on tiny maps? I think we need this

[@danielhockersmith5235]

Yo shout out from the 717!

[@lukasvideosify1596]

When I started watching this video and saw the ELO I was expecting to see a crazy fully-retarded game. And while many of their mistakes would have been obvious even for people who never played the game, the whole think was much more advanced than I would have imagined. Both players even clicked up to Imperial Age at around 38 minutes. THat is still not super-fast but I expected 50min or even an hour or more. To be honest, I have seen worse among 800 and 900 ELO people. Interesting to watch.

[@trenxee1165]

attempting same strategy same composition same place over and over oh no 🥺😭

[@BleachWizz]

20:00 - whaaat? low elo legends focusing on an unity for army? naice, basic knowledge is getting better :)

[@CSDragon]

heh, no way jose

[@agaba5500]

lel masterpiece

[@simonsilence]

uuuuuuuuuuuuh fresh

[@gebhard128]

when i started playing the game I never understood why anyone should attack villagers, why u should massacre civilians, destroying the military was always my goal and if i did so i expected my enemy to resign

[@tomscorpion6288]

1) The Americans are unable to pronounce “ch”, as used in German “ich”, for example? That would be “ik“ for them, or something like that? Is there a way to explain the pronunciation to them? 2) I don't think lower ELO players can think of using rams against units. It took me many years to ever consider that. You might learn it from the AI though as it loves to destroy trebuchets with rams.

[@atlasmonologues]

Anyone else die inside when T90 insisted on using the wrong pronounciation of "José?" :D

[@2013ebruggeman]

3 mils 12 mins in

[@CerberusHD]

Tbh I never was a fan of raiding... Probably I was thinking too real world like and like why kill civilians, they did nothing wrong... And sending in a few units to probably get some kills and die, I always would feel bad for them, because just think about it, you send some units to die, how would they feel? xD Yeah I know it's stupid, but I really hated playing against NPC's because of this, they wouldn't let me build up. XDDD There is a big difference in play style if you want to be a pro player. :D

[@UniDocs_Mahapushpa_Cyavana]

Headbanger's elo would probably rise by 100s if they just started to wall 🧱, so they could send raids and scouts without worrying too much about home.
