Slann fell off his wheelchair on the way to battle and it kept going on without him, he's lying back there in the woods somewhere with a crew of Skinks trying to help him up

[@turinRTS]

RIP!

[@redsalamander9999]

9:39 I think this is the most literal instance of 'coming in with the steel chair' in the history of Turin's entire casting career

[@KnoxZone]

You know the battle is lost when an empty chair starts launching burning heads at you.

[@UnreasonableOpinions]

"Somehow, Palpachair has returned."

[@lich109]

Turin's no longer in the BO5 FINALS 😢

[@plantman333]

I was half expecting you to call out "and here comes the battle toad with the stone chair!" Such a funny bug

[@lich109]

The bug on the Slann's Palanquin was hilarious, and wow those trees were doing work in blocking those salamander shots. Had the game been on a more open map they'd have ripped right through the infantry on objective 2.

[@healinglight333]

“It’s not a bug, it’s a feature!” 😄 Also Turin being extremely poetic with his analogies with the siren and whatnot. 🙂

[@antonionotmyrealnamo6333]

We never even suspected... it was the chair all along.

[@jaredkronk4614]

I love how you described Sirens luring people in with the promise of an easy kill! It gave me such a funny mental image.

[@bxzidffbxzidff]

Burning head seems like it just hard counters anything good WE can do. Those expensive blade singers got flushed halfway down the toilet the second they entered the battlefield, compared to what infantry with a little bit of armor from other factions would do. Far from impossible of course, but a lot of uphill

[@albaniaalban]

Burning head just invalidating both WE and TK feels very bad, makes matchups extremely polarizing.

[@badgersauce]

That mobility scooter is possessed by the Old Ones themselves!

[@zethkarrade]

Ah Wood Elves! Remember the days of Felkon Dark Lording it with elves? Awesome use of mobility advantage.

[@DIMIchannel]

unfortunately those cool wild rider builds could never work in dom

[@zethkarrade]

@DIMIchannel yeah, suppose that is a good thing in a way; different builds for different missions, but elf cav builds are awesome just on cool factor.

[@papagyekelartey1969]

It was Xiphos, not Felkon-the great dark lord

[@DIMIchannel]

@@papagyekelartey1969 xiphos was more of a kiting-sniping player, I really miss his plays too. felkon was the grandfather of the wild rider rush

[@zethkarrade]

@@papagyekelartey1969 Hell yeah, Xiphos was a beast!

[@eirikmarthinsen3850]

The Lizzards literally came in with the steel chair in the final round to clench the victory. This is the ultimate Turin moment.

[@MrArwar131313]

9:40 And here comes the Steel Chair with the Steel Chair!

Wood Elves VS Lizardmen: The Revenge of the Gaming Chair

[@simona1001]

Find someone who looks at you the way Turin looks at the Battle-Toad.

[@elvio512]

the toad whit the steel chair at min 9.55 ahahah

[@TehGnomeh]

LIZARD BOYS HELL YEAH

[@parkerhayes9739]

LIZARD WIZARDZZZ

[@parkerhayes9739]

BOK!! BOK!!

[@TehGnomeh]

ITS KING GIZZARD THR LIZARD WIZARD

[@CompetitivelyAwesome]

TURIN WHY ARE YOUR VIDEOS SO GOOD AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Keep up the good work

[@toejams9310]

The new forbidden tech of the Lizardmen, the THRONE OF DOOM!!!!

[@fiveforbiting]

Here comes the Chair riding his Slann. Bok Bok!

[@HBon111]

Watched you a whole lot in my uni days back in TW:WH1 days. Glad to see you still keeping it up!

[@keropnw3425]

Wood elves need a big buff so bad. It's kind of silly that every human faction, Kislev, Empire and Bretonnia are the most OP when lore wise they should be some of the weaker armies compared to elves or chaos.

[@Dustman5917]

I won’t lie, I haven’t played this MU in like 6 months and I completely forgot about waywatchers 😂 for a moment I was so confused about how my toad died. TLDR though, lizardmen nerfs definitely made this battle feel pretty awkward with the build I had. Timing felt off between less units available from price hikes and ofc points opening up immediately. Elvio is definitely an up and comer! Thanks for the cast as always!

[@MrEddieLomax]

As a Lizardman player, it was rare to get to watch a win, a great battle. Not sure what different I'd add, I like bringing in a Sauras veteran, but other than the dragon there were no good targets for him. Lizardmen are in a decent state but haven't actually had many updates. What I mean by that is CA has given lizardmen loads of DLC, but the DLC frequently contains big monsters, it feels odd where there are literally three different Skinks inc missile and three different foot Saurus units - the faction could be spiced up with a bit more variety in its foot soldiers.

[@greengo6489]

The ghost chair haha In one of my campaign battles just now half of my lords of change had nothing but wings in the air, and exalted lord of change had no head, this bug must have blown his mind i guess.

[@justlolit]

Dustman Comes back in the CHAIR!!!!

[@emultra759]

I guess there's an empty chair at the winners' table.

[@itinerantspark1658]

This just in local Slann transmutes body into heavenly ether and rises above this mere dimension after drive by attack by wood-elves. More news at 5!

[@matthewinrealtime]

"Somehow Palpatine's chair returned."

[@AloysNeverood]

Wood elves really need some love. You really have to micro them so hard and they're so flimsy. Maybe the brettonia grail treatment, replacing the physical resistance of their elite with ward save?

[@shawnberry760]

This makes sense. I started finding tree toads in my yard this spring. lol love the wood elves!! Thank you!

[@johnsullivan186]

Everytime a wood elf submission is sent in its always a loss lol

[@sharilken]

The dreaded steel chair.

[@Mr_Giraffe989]

Poor Slann-ma fell out of her chair again. :(

[@zsdmrtzmrde]

The wood elves dragon lord is just so cool. GG.

[@AngryLemon19]

Hey Turin I have a question about your terminology. Would you say the salamanders are a late game sweeper unit because it's a solid dps option that can sweep up multiple damaged units and quickly end a pitched battle. You always call knights or a land ship a late game sweeper and I've never really got the term

[@turinRTS]

Yeah something that can come in, do a lot of damage against scattered units, and close out a game

[@Nakai865]

Man I love lizardmen.

[@CFX992]

More community replays from non "meta" factions please Turin!

[@Azaruz90]

Late late night seeing this pop-up, I have no choice but to wait for sleep.

[@eumaies]

gg; even if you don't kill a battle toad getting his burning head out of range of your elite infantry is a win

[@-nav-398]

What do WE have that can clear chaff well? I would think dwellers below, but I'm not sure about units. I'm thinking about this because there was just a lizard tide of skinks at the end.

[@emultra759]

Pretty much Bladesingers. But as you saw with the burning head...I guess Treekin are decent and not quite as vulnerable.

[@bruuuuuuuuhhhh]

​@@emultra759 Treekin have the downside of being trees, so fire hurts bad, and they aren't very mobile from my experience

[@jobroter]

Even the wardancers in general can dominate the melee fights against chaff, but as everything woodelf related it requires a lot of micro and are very vulnerable to magic and shooting. The toad died very early in the game and came back to completely carry the game by casting 3-4 good spells.

[@bullronin1]

That Slann Rosco scooter was on autopilot

[@GnomeLaborer]

Oof. Those old Kroxigors models in the thumbnail. 😂 I was just painting some of the new ones for a friend yesterday. They’re much better in my opinion.

[@arcadius2569]

Hmm, so Lizardmen field less complex armies but are disgustingly resilient. I think the woodelves could have won too, probably just the micro and choice of targets.

[@davidb8539]

This whole time the Slaan was actually the seat and not the toad

[@benjamint7301]

Total War Warhammer Episode 3: Revenge of the Chair

[@Zashzila]

Wood elves need love damn dude.

[@SergeantAlcohol]

Cathay Moonbird Astromancer has more HP than a forest dragon lord? This should really be fixed asap! Forest dragon needs a buff!

[@Konkajou]

havent seen any vampire counts basically since the update

[@DIMIchannel]

I don't like that you're able to resummon lord. hope there was a way around it

[@loganhough9688]

Slann took a page out of Kroak's book

[@manudeman1841]

Flocks of doom might have been a better choice against that WE infantry spam.

[@bigsarge2085]

Frog is best frog??

[@x0lopossum]

Love me some orange Slans, 🍊🐸

[@bruuuuuuuuhhhh]

I hate Saurus, I hate them.

[@elvio512]

me too trust me ahahah

[@joshpeck9266]

I wonder if wood elves will get 1 more DLC?

[@Thuneable]

Stellar

[@alexocana1865]

Love me some lizards

[@lazywalrusHD]

wow 8 skinks what an exciting build

[@MrEddieLomax]

One prob is there are only three types of skinks, 2 chameleons and three foot sauras to choose from as a Lizardman player. I suspect the lizardman player didn't bring a big monster due to the disgustingly good ranged from wood elves - in total war a lot of the battle is fought picking troops...

[@VSastrocompasss]

😃 go lizards

[@elvio512]

:(

[@patricksheehan43]

The wood elf player was like partially afk throughout the second half of the game. I counted at least 3 or 4 times where units would just be standing there with no commands. As someone who plays wood elves a lot myself I just can’t stand seeing a lord on a dragon just sitting there and taking shots for no reason.

[@elvio512]

True :(

[@andrewwilliams2014]

Algorithm comment

[@Draconas]

Skinks need nerfs. They're way too annoying for low price point, and applying poison to everything is extremely cost effective

[@MrEddieLomax]

The Chameleon's have to be annoying if they are useful, fast+missile+fire while moving. But if a heavy cavalry catches them they do go down, and they are not cheap...
