TTL Grand Final (Season 2)

[@foraker6487]

The Extras channel was such a content machine. Thx for all the work.

[@WiglyWorm]

absolute firehose. i tried really hard and couldn't watch every match. It would have been a full time job to watch it all.

Dog that extras channel was my life, shout out to T90

[@vialactea5549]

I watched every single platinum game, wether actively or in the background. Thank you Tristan, and everyone who made this possible, especially the players. This was so much fun I already miss it!

T90!!! What a great success this touney is! So so so entertaining to watch, great games, intrigue till the last, underdogs beating champs, new strats and new meta and what not! Pinnacle of competitive AoE! Not to mention your ever great casting ofc! Your duo with Dave is especially great too.

[@dominicgendron3011]

Totally agree

[@Matphes]

This tournament was awesome. Thanks to everyone involved!

Viper's Game 1 vs Sebastian in group stage Game 1 vs Jordan in quarter final Game 3 vs Hera in final Should be a playlist

[@gamingpc5459]

Game 2 vs Tatoh as well (the tatars vs burgundians one, not sure if 2nd)

[@sp0_od597]

@@gamingpc5459 That ghost lake game in the semifinal was also amazing

[@AlexBless-hn2ls]

I would also say Game 5 vs Jordan belongs in that list. His patience to just play the attrition game with trash units vs the Elephant archers then at the end throw skirms in to reduce the numbers of elephants and add Cavalier with his stockpile of gold for the final push was incredible.

[@gamingpc5459]

[@NathanCassidy721]

My favorite part from TTL is the sheer variety of civs and units we saw across all of it. I’m personally happy to see Turks, Portuguese, Italians, and Burmese make a dominant showing

[@williamschubert4819]

Hera and Viper's willingness to lose armies to gain positions (more Viper) or do damage (more Hera) is unparalleled and is so effective. Great set and amazing play by both.

[@KingNik1994]

What a tournament! I've watched every single Platinum game, and this is the most I've ever been absorbed by a sports competition. Fantastic players, fantastic casting!

[@darkranger116]

13k views in 9 hrs, t90 and viper having videos consistently its been 24 years, and its STILL the best time to jump into this game

[@Baron_Laska]

This is the first AoE2 tournament I have followed along with as it happened. It was fantastic!! Felt as though the QFs were actually the best round as the SFs and F lacked the twists and tight results. *SPOILER* Actually think JorDan was the only player who gave Viper a scare and I enjoyed his play. Being quite new to AoE2 he has a new fan in me :-)

[@TheDevourerOfPancake]

Jordan is such a good guy when you hear him speak too. I started really rooting for him in hidden cup 4 when he was coming back from retirement and T90 was dismissing that the guy in front of him could be Jordan because 'Jordan's just not that good". Heck yeah he's that good and he looked like an even match for any of the big names this tournament

[@IndexInvestingWithCole]

Jordan was the best player in all of season 2 playoffs. Well, except for the Viper in their series.

[@stevelaw3886]

This was Jordan finally back to his best after being retired a long time. There's some old matches between him & Viper that are worth a watch, from when it was those 2 at the top.

[@Racepiraat]

Great final for a amazing second season of T90 Titan League! Thank you T90 and everyone else for casting and hosting this competition.

[@HadesElderSage]

Thank you and to all that were involved in this tournament. It was amazing to watch and be apart of. What a great finals and TheViper is truly the greatest of all time by such a large margin it is crazy to see.

[@kudosensei]

Honestly sad it's over, such a great stream of amazing high-level content. I loved S2 so much I'd even try to watch it on my phone on my lunch breaks despite the screen being no way near big enough to see the action proper, every plat game to a whole bunch of gold as well. Congrats to Vipey and of course thanks to T90, JBR, Hardy and every other collaborator that made it happen. Looking forward to whatever is planned next, with how amazing this went whatever follows definitely won't disappoint at all.

[@derekpascoe804]

Thank you Tristan for bringing your vision to light for competitive AOE. You & Dave’s chemistry is unmatched. True 🐐‘s of competitive casting. The enjoyment I got out of this is the same as, breaking bad, game of thrones, & dragon ball Z when I was a kid

[@elpidaguy]

What a finale, Viper the AEGG. Also, insane Hera getting in finale with his goat gameplay. Both are legends.

[@youngmanlogan5812]

my two favorite players and two favorite casters. this tournament was very fun. thank you t90

[@Grato537]

Amazing content! So happy to have a league format for Age! Would seriously love if it could even be expanded next season.

[@littlezimty]

Minor Spoiler... . . . . . . Game 3 when the crossbows enter Hera's base. Hera's idle villager time jumps from 16 minutes to 34 minutes, while Viper's only ticks up from 18 to 20. For zero eco deaths that's still a ton of eco damage.

[@shogunjim4257]

Great cast dude, love it when Dave is co casting with you.

[@zeruzio1345]

What a great season, ending how we all thought it might. So much work went into this season. Sad we didn't get an ACCM-Viper Final but maybe next time. Great work T90 and the team! Very much appreciated.

[@stevelaw3886]

I was gutted when Accm lost - particularly the way he fell apart in game 5.

[@repeets5455]

Regardless of the winner, thanks for the great entertainment all contenders and thanks again T90 for all the work you and all your co-casters and the rest of the crew put in! It’s been an epic season!

ÆGGs to both players as well as T90. Winner deserved it imo. Also the tourney was super cool overall with some very memorable games and an incredible level of play in the knockout stage.

[@USSTrashBoat]

this tourney has been great im gonna miss having a ton of content to watch on the extras channel during work. great work T90 and crew!

[@umamifriends]

I've been playing AoE2 online since the early 2000s, before Conqueror's expansion came out, when siege was banned because scorpions used to get archery range upgrades lol. Anyways its incredible to see the game in it's current state, the player base and quality of games, not just on a skill level, but on an entertainment level too, have never been higher. absolutely loving the state of the community and the quality of casting as well. this is probably the best AoE tournament I've ever watched , hats off to T90!

[@thelochlord]

This set was Ægg-celent! The whole tourney was. I'm already lookin forward to the next

[@MrCrimsonhermit]

Wow... thats about as close as you get to perfect gameplay. I cannot find the right words to describe this amazing series. Congratulations to the Winner And to 2nd place, i hope you keep your spirits up, even with that loss you played exceptional AOE2. Thanks to you T90 and all your co casters and editing/production team for bringing us this tournament. Cheers

great tournament. I've been watching it every day for months, sad that this season is over. Amazing play and great casting as always

[@ChrisHinton42]

TTL has been great. Thanks for organizing. A nitpick about commentary: What is a "comfort pick"? It shouldn't be hard to be more specific. e.g. "This civilization suits the player's strengths." "This civilization has a straight-forward game plan." "The player is feeling anxious and this civilization's unique charm has always calmed them down since they were a kid."

[@sudhaunshuhardikar3933]

[@johnsmith5139]

beautiful to see a certain hussar flood strategy thwarted so deftly

[@jordanlimantara1814]

Honestly, I thought mayans would get crushed in late game but just calmly placing a couple of halbs in his ecos and then creating an unstoppable mass and destroy his base slowly, just masterful.

[@Chimichanga5666]

That 3rd game's turn of events was unbelievable.

[@gruntgg]

Thank you T90 for all the hard work, effort and dedication!! This has been yet again another amazing Titans league. Congratulations to the winner and to you as well for the success! Thanks to Dave too for the always great co-casting with you. You both rock!

[@dominicgendron3011]

Thank you so much T90, keep up the good work, you do a lot for us !

[@xXTheKingEmothXx]

It's fun to watch Viper's perspective before watching the casts of his games, because during that Mayan game, he was perfectly calm throughout it, never even once felt threatened by that forward castle, and even said it was a mistake for Hera to rush Imp and push with Cavalier and Trebs, but T90 is in such a panic over his position hahaa

[@johncollins7465]

That game 3 was so much fun! Great match so far

[@rickbiessman6084]

T90, you’re amazing. There are no words to describe how cool the leagues you set up are. Also I love your choice of co-casters you brought on! I felt all o them were a super good fit. (I will say I’m glad Memb wasn’t one of the co-casters... which will sound mean, I know. But I wanted to put it out there because your casts really matter to me. 😌)

Congratulations T90 on the resounding success that was this Season of TTL! The league was so awesome! I watched about 75% of the games on Extras and about the same on your main channel and the competition was so sick.

[@Titantr0n]

AEGG indeed, enjoyed this whole tournament very much.

[@xaviermacbeth]

Awesome tournament. Keep going like that, Viper, ÆGG! :D And I wish you, T90, would just cast ALL tournaments. Nice personality, competent/knowledgeable commentary and an accent that you actually can keep listening to for hours without getting insane (no offense to other casters).

[@nathanfranks1476]

I watched the entire thing via the extras channel and couldnt have asked for a better experience! Really appreciated You hiding the names from the vid titles in the bracket part to avoid spoilers. Idk if its possible, but can you hide the video length too? Atleast in the thumbnail. That would be POG.

[@ferrariramsgobrrr]

Viper will always be the GOAT for his ability to perform in so many different settings / maps, as well as the ability to handle tricky game situations. Obviously he's not as dominant as he used to be, but newer fans should absolutely go back and watch the first three NACs and the first three Hidden Cups. They should go back and watch DM World Cup, Master of Socotra, Clown Cup etc to see the versatility. Lierrey, Hera, are stronger than Viper in a few situations / settings, but for overall performance across all maps there's no comparison.

[@ferrariramsgobrrr]

Also go back and check out the Bo37 between Viper and DauT

[@ferrariramsgobrrr]

Like seeing how in NAC2 I believe it was when Viper 5-0'd Lierrey in the semis and then went 5-0 up against Tatoh in the final. Just another level.

[@XUndergroundRap]

Wanna thank T90..... for introducing me to Dave 😍

[@SilverwingStudios]

Hera is my favorite player. Persians are my favorite civ since the game came out in '99 when I was in high school. Game 2 was so much hype for me. ^_^

Me coming back to AOE2 2 years later after a viper video gets recommended to me: "I wonder if Hera is still relavent" "Oh look, the most recent tournament concluded. I wonder who was in the finals" Love to see it.

[@martehoogenboom3567]

I came to KZbin for this exactly

[@siebren005]

Hey T90, love your videos. I don't play AOE2 but I really like these games as I used to play as a kid. I really would like to propose an idea. Could it be possible to let every video end at the same time in tournaments? And fill the empty bits with blank space? It really would help people watch these vids on youtube and still covering the end results by the last matches in one video. This because its easy to predict the result from the timeline in te video with the score at that time of the last matches. And this takes away the tension or suprise :) Its just proposal but would be nice to see it. It would make these vids even more awesome!

[@michaelcross7665]

Hearing the game 3 commentary was hilarious after watching it from viper pov first xD he was so chill the entire game, not even a little bothered and never felt he was behind. I do think he greatly overestimated the idle eco damage he did to hera. By the time hera hit imp viper had a greater idle eco timer (granted, more vills, but still)

[@alejandrolievano5573]

What will I do now??? It was so hype to seeing so many high level games back to back. Congrats on heading such a good event

[@alexbrennan9928]

TTL was fantastic, so many great games! Has there been any talk about a Hidden Cup V? I just realized that HC IV was close to two years ago

[@nestorojeda2358]

Yes T90, you call Dave, David, like twice. :)

[@VVilkacy]

Total and brutal domination.

[@HuntsDown]

I'm really confused as to why Hera quit in match 3. I'm a novice but he had 4 trebs and had just taken down the castle? He could have packed up the trebs and got them away, couldn't he? The match looked so tight and I assumed he was winning as he had trebs and Viper didn't. I know I'm wrong because these guys know best, but to me, it's mega confusing. If someone could explain (IF POSSIBLE) would appreciate it as am trying hard to follow what is going on.

[@helderboymh]

Viper was gonna last long enough that the gold he is going to get extra would be to much. Hera had zero gold Income, was gonna lose those trebs and and has no hand cannons. He needs trebs to push castles but also needs hand canons to kill the Eagles and pike. Without hand canons Hera army just doesn't stand a chance, it's all cavalry. Also we don't see everything for example in the last 3 min Hera lost over 30 eco. It's might seem early but he called gg right at the moment that he basically had no chance of winning, when he lost his trebs. Without those he can't stop vipers trebs meaning that the castles that are the only thing left that can defend his eco, will go down eventually.

[@HuntsDown]

You wall last minute because it delays them into going into other areas of your economy as well as gives u more time to get resources and waste less time building cause once they know ur alert they won’t bother so viper does it strategically not an ego move
