THE ELUSIVE SKARBRAND | Khorne vs Norsca - Total War Warhammer 3

[@warwolf3232]

nothing screams Turin like the haggard "bo5" text just floating in the middle of the screen, never change turin, never change! Much love from Italy

[@siddgeir1312]

4:25 sync kill followed by an immediate javelin to the face was a peak warhammer moment

[@sassyviking6003]

Tis a brutal universe, especially for anyone pledged to chaos.

[@KnoxZone]

Man, now I want to see that scenario play itself out. The badly mauled Skarbrand launching an attack on the Empire and one terrified halberdier just braces in a panic only for the demon to impale himself and die.

[@lukekenny2087]

Just wanted to say a big thank you. I first subscribed about 6 years ago, I think I was around number 20k. You helped me through ptsd and your daily uploads helped me to keep going. I hope to be in a position to repay you one day. Thank you for your dedication, your rts commentary is top notch!

[@turinRTS]

Happy to have you here brother

[@nepnep8382]

Jesus 15 HP on Skarbrand and still no crumbling, reminds me of Vlad in Campaign

[@flapablesteak8986]

Borderline triggering 😢

[@SH4D0W0733]

Vlad is an absolute monster. You'll destroy his entire army easily, and then over the next 10 minutes he solos your army.

[@CharlesProctor]

Man, 24hp Skarbrand with the Neo-level jukes when he dodged those javelin volleys at the end

[@shanedog007]

Mr. . . . Skarbrand. . we have an issue. . . . . you see. . people like you. . . are not normal

[@dsmith377]

gotta say i love your commentating. always loaded with energy and never a dull second.

[@turinRTS]

I appreciate that!

[@RawCauliflower]

Sand wich not realising that capture point 1 wasn't technically taken must of hurt.

[@Zayl1016]

14:21 Damn that Fimir kicked Skarbrand into the sky

[@FPSveteran]

Skarbrand is one of those Lords I love to bring knowing he probably won't get his value's worth, which sucks. They seriously need to bring him down a few hundred gold for his price, and the exalted Bloodthirsty too. Speaking of Bloodthirster, I would've brought that instead of Skarbrand just for the shreer speed and power behind it. With the Bloodthirster ability (increase in speed and charge bonus) and the Carnage ability (increase in dmg and ap), the EB can reach 871 in damage with 119 speed, and being able to fly to top it off. Skarbrand has to work to get those number or go into enrage territory. And the Bloodthirster is better with the breath attack overall. The only real saving grace of Skarbrand is his enrage mechanic and the enrage bonus to his WS, but those are all pretty risky/obvious to a decent opponent.

[@CompetitivelyAwesome]

also for dom skar has cap weight

[@Lemonyxx]

I just love seeing Skarbrand in action! I'm glad he lived throughout the entire thing

[@robertsimon-kroppmanns7287]

Marlon Skarbrando is so cursed and I love it so much

[@omgLethalSting]

Wulfrik's mammoth doing some moon walking at 5:12

[@regularspecial1]

the best part of this battle is the khorne warriors were probably LOVING EVERY MOMENT. 90% of each army is dead and every unit is at 15%? SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD START

[@phantom6014]

I wonder if it would've been worth unsummoning skarbrand to heal him up and avoid a leadership debuff. He can focus his micro on the rest of the battle n maybe save up enough to summon him again if the game lasted longer.

[@havocgr1976]

They might as well make Skarbrand unbreakable lol

[@wolfgang4488]

And 100 models to the tzar guards 80, tzar guard need a buff.

[@pianospeedrun]

You really can't bring anthing the size of a minautor at the start of the battle. As reinforcements they're perfect but early on the javelins just get free shots, first you deal with ranged units then you deal with frontline. Just go for cheap khorn marauders in front line and tons of dogs and axe cav, circle around and kill javelins, then bring minautors to clean up marauder champs / lords & giant Axe cav can get insane value if you keep even 10 alive they willuse the ammo of a full unit

[@zacharysgro6145]

Chadbrand is based incarnate

[@robertswart70]

Marlon Skarbrando! lol new classic!

[@veteran673]

Damn i felt bad for that giant, running after everyone and cant catch them

[@demonslaer2598]

Late to comment but..... "how's his base leadership so high" me thinking: "cause Khorne Turin... cause Khorne"

[@Stobo087]

Marlon Skarbrando " Look how I massacred ya boi"

[@andrewnieves3417]

Khorne rallies round the family with a pocket full of shells

[@erikp5393]

As a rookie i'm a bit confused. I get marauders and CW are very cost effective, but since champs are so dominant why not just use bloodletters?

[@thesandwitch-yq1rq]

It was my first time doing khorne into norsca and since I had no idea how front line would go, I engaged and lost badly, which explains the huge early value lead. It's a good way to learn :P as a matter of fact, some daemons entered game 2 & 3 and results were different indeed!

[@sassyviking6003]

@@thesandwitch-yq1rq it is a very interesting matchup because on paper the seem so similar, not quite the same but there is a lot of parity between the rosters. Must have been fun to feel out the matchup and see what works.

[@deleonjrd]

I believe it's because they are anti-armor which would trade poorly with regular marauders and be very vulnerable to missiles.

[@toxic_cowZ]

this is interesting ive heard dogperson in the training discord say he likes wolfrik on a mammoth vs Khorne still surprised it worked though i feel like it wouldn't have if scarbrand was farming skulls because he would have owned the mammoth then.

[@Slapdab]

Love the coverage

[@Erebus2075]

such awesome matches ggwp

[@workingjoe6424]

Insta-watch any Khorne battle. Blood for the blood god!

[@Draconas]

Why no bloodletters vs Norsca?

[@jukahri]

Dropping a like for the fimirs

[@trogdor221]

Turin you should know by now, skarbrand just doesn't give AF.

SKARBRAND HATES BARBARIANS!!!!!!!

[@FISH01994]

I dont know why Chadbrand lose.

[@dontyoudare61]

the higher quality your thumbnails get, the more they bleed into the background of youtube....

[@zohaib844]

Hi

[@drthrax78]

Okay hear me out... (more beastmen nonesense of course) so the beastmen giant buffed with an overcasted Mantle of Ghorok is truly a sight to behold, if your foe is a little to fast for the big guy then just hit em with a Devolve. Now you've got yourself an 80 ft tall goon machine

[@daviddarner6858]

Get emmm

[@nepnep8382]

First :p

[@aethewulf4787]

Who other than worst slayer ever... ^^

[@gorbork]

Khorne marauders are literally lazily repainted marauder champions, lol.

[@Redneckkratos]

First!!!! Finally!!!

[@brunocardoso3326]

Men this khorne guy is terrible, he should have used skarbrand to kill the mage when he had the perfect change at 4:50

[@pianospeedrun]

From my perspective he attacked the mage just so norscan player thought his lord was safe, then got back on his ass asap. But i see what you mean

[@thesandwitch-yq1rq]

Idk if you've ever played online, but there is a giant and wulfrik nearby, which could potentially swarm skarbrand in return. The mage looks more like a bait. Gme was also atrociously laggy on my side, so if that's the only mistake you see on my part, I'll take that home, but I humbly think you missed a lot of other costly failures on my side

[@pianospeedrun]

@@thesandwitch-yq1rq very cool game mate that's the most important, at least to us viewers xD From my perspective you lost because javelins shredded your minautors early, the rest of the game you played smart picking your fights. I litterally went for a walk in the parc this afternoon thinking "how would i deal with these javelins". The best i came up with : keep minautor in reserves, spam axe cav and fleshhounds to kills javelines while marauder champs are busy killing your own cheap marauders, then once you have some map control bring the minos and kill the marauder champs 1 by 1.
