Hey T90.... Wow.... Imagine my surprise when I've got an Episode of LEL on in the background while at work and I suddenly hear my name... Captain Kingsmill.... and I learn that not only did you stream my game, but that I made it to KZfaq. The most bizarre thing is I couldn't remember at the start if I won or not (although the loss came flooding back to me as the game went on), so this was a bit of a roller-coaster for me, from sucessfully defending his early game push, to then being on the backfoot against his castle on the hill... to then ALMOST pushing through with my final attack, but then ultimately falling back and losing the game. Wild ride. I watch a lot (if not all) of your videos, and lives when I can... and the humbling thing about watching this is, when I watch them and think 'I would never make THOSE mistakes'.... and hear I am... making those very mistakes. It was painful to watch my fishing ships idle for as long as they did before traps, it was painful to watch me not replace my scout and scout the map to find the gold, and painful to watch 20 villagers sit there doing nothing for 15 min after finishing their gold while I focused on nothing but the front line. - all while also missing him destroy my TC... and that's just a few of the horrors, there were many more. You're not wrong, I was pretty salty after this L I feel bad for the no GG.... There's a chance I just straight up closed the game in a salty mess, at the time I felt I was the better player with a better strategy, but after watching this video, it's clear that the better player won! but if you're still offering that billion dollar rematch in a year, I'll take it ;) Big learning experience for me, Thank you for your compliments and your criticisms, I will take them on board ... I may even play a civ other than Brits one day.... Keep up the content, hopefully next time you stream a game of mine it will be a big W for me. Cheers, CK

No boring meta of crossbows + knights but instead infantry and unique units. That's why I love the Low Elo Legends.

I play on HD edition against my dad. It’s very fun, and I very often win. But the bad thing about winning against him, is that he never resigns. I remember one game, I was scouting the whole map trying to see if he had one unit or building that was keeping him alive for 10 minutes. Until finally, I noticed a single moving dot on the mindmap. (I had spies) I went to look at what it was. *It was a trading cart.* He was using his marketplace, and training trading carts and sending them all over the world. The absolute animal. I was playing britons and didn’t have any calvary, and only had longbowmen and trebuchets, so I had to send out small groups to hunt these carts down individually.

Red didn't make more units while fighting because the guys supposed to train the recruits were out defending the town center.

When life gives you gambessons but neither of those civs got em :D

17:55 that knight is Ser Gregor Clegane. Only raiding and killing poor villagers...

38:14 longbows... Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooouuu, not looonggbooowwsss!!

20:20 You definitely need base defenses in both Starcrafts, especially Starcraft Brood War/Remastered... It's easier to deathball in AoE 2 than it is in Brood War for several reasons, one being that you can only select 12 units in one control group. Another reason is that pathfinding is abysmal, worse than AoE 2, and the extremely common ramp chokepoints in BW maps make it even worse. Narrow ramps are part of nearly every modern map design and bridges are fairly common too. Units constantly bump into each other, including allied units, and require frequent micro to even keep together in a group, if you even have the space to do that. There is also no 'select all military units' button in brood war, let alone being about to select more than 12 units at once, even though the pop cap is essentially the same as AoE 2 (200/200 with only ~65 max workers, but many army units take up more than 1 pop space).

Honestly I feel Blue is the better player because while meta and strat does play a part, aggression imo is an even bigger indicator.

Interesting that red is adding ships, but a few minutes in actually has fewer eco units, because they're not adding vils as consistently.

I love that Blue's strat is basically just "make units". He's the less experienced player by far, and the stereotype is that new players never attack until they have their big army, but here's this guy whose just going to make stuff without worrying about matchup or counters: he's Goths, the label says infantry civ, he's going to make infantry.

I live for this content. Bringing aoe2 streams to KZfaq viewers, thank you for your prime commentary.

Yes blue does seem like a stacraft or other rts player, the way he splits the skirmishers in the attack when TC goes to half hp, plus the way he goes about the game. Ive played sc2 at decently high amateur level and im frustrated at how hard it seems to deny scouting or being aggressive. I might just try some aggro, seems very fun 😁

The Dad Jokes were Udderly killing me!

I absolutely love the idea of picking two low elo legends and letting them train for a year knowing that they have to do a best of five at the end for, I don’t know, like $20k.

Loving low Elo legends series. Great stuff!

Decided to try to play online today after watching a lot of low ELO legends. Ended up winning. I'm still in ranked but these low ELO videos are like a play book of what not to do with helpful tips on how to succeed.

thanks for another low elo legends video appreciate it

Loved this game with both infantry and some ranged units. Goths are beastly production wise and blue played well. gg wp!

Question: How many times do you guys inadvertently touch your mouse to the edge of the screen to try move the screen? 😄

Really want to see a pro game that highlights infantry changes where you break down how the changes have altered the meta

Goths are hell of a drug for low elo legends

My favorite strategy is to send my scout and starting villagers to the corner of the map and build a lumber camp and then wait for the enemies to resign

I know that they don't play to win, they don't want to tryhard, they don't watch videos to improve, and all that kind of stuff T90 reminds us often ... But DAMN, sometimes I wonder if they even ever did tutorial of the game

Blues building style reminds me of how the game builds for you on console and his mechanics, very non micro focused with the vills as well

Hey T90, been watching you, SOTL and viper for awhile now. Instead of Low Elo Legends. Can you try todo somthing like Low Elo FFA War? 6-8 Low Elo players with their slow starts, messy armys and no trade would be a awesome video. P.S i think Low Elo videos are the best!

i think he builds infantry + javelin throwers because that's how the goths fought. would be cool

22:10 the skirms are the leftover, instead i think its just more experience knowing britons and their archers but not enough to scout. 37:00 he literally sees a gold to the right, where his tc was

How are these 800 ELO? The ones i play against go fast rush castle on my TC while I'm starting to make more than 30 vill

Excellent game

Red needed a castle way sooner. I'm very curious to fight against goths to see how I'd fight against them

Great Game

Blue looks like a player from the MSN gaming zone days (like when I first started playing).

3:34 I see nothing wrong with the houses, helps defend woodline which seems fully populated before a second woodline

Man, its been awhile since the last t90 videos i watch. Why is t90 spitting dad jokes? 🤣🤣🤣 Its amusing, keep it up my guy!

I was around 1000-1200 elo when I was playing.. 3-4 years ago. If I'd start over now I'd probably be with those guys or even lower 🤣 I think the playerbase improved a lot when Definitive Edition came out with the tutorials

I just noticed the cows are dairy cows. They aren't eating bulls, they are eating the female cows 🤣

LEL ... well there goes my productivity.

Starcraft actually has just as much focus on eco as AoE2. It's simpler with just two resources, but games are often decided by who can macro better and control more resource patches

The power of the Goths

How many fish n chips do you recommend per pond on this map?

blue hates taking resources close to the dropping point with passion

I'm around this elo and sometimes the fish boom is so intense I don't know what to do wit hall the food! lol

I feel like t90 fluctuates on how much he values fishing. On the map “coastal” he doesnt seem to think its worth it, even though there is lots of fish and its just a little further to walk. But in this vid he states how you should always fish if there is water.

Since when do trees have square shadows? That makes it so much easier to see when there are holes in walls and when you have overchopped. Who the heck thought that would be a good idea?

Good game.

Time to go back to the William Wallace training campaign

Yay.. MYELO XD

*T90!!!*

11:30 he isn't looking for the hotkey for the tc he's trying to place the tc but you can only place it at flat ground so he was looking for a place where it would let him place it

800 Elo in 2023 feels much worse than 800 Elo in 2022 (I was 800 Elo in 2022).

What time do you stream everyday? Facebook?

What is happening here? This was 800 ELO maybe 2 or 3 years ago, but these days 800 ELO has much better starts. This looks more like 600 or even lower. How did they become 800? Playing only specific map combinations?

We do want some anarchy

Where do you stream?

MASS LONGBOWS OMG

if blue is a SC2 player: they're a Zerg. Protoss plays very defensives and closed up, whilst Terrans are raiding more so than full on assault. If blue is a SC:BW player: they're a Protoss player. Protoss just mass 2 basic units and attack whenever, whilst Terran are defensive and Zerg are ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ idk really but they've strategy and gameplan. I could see blue being a SC:BW Protoss player, but not much else honestly. I'd think a SC2 Zerg player would instinctively want many town centers.

What happened to those poor TREES!?

red had nearly 10x as many games as blue but blue steamrolled. I guess that's the difference between aggressive and defensive playstyles.

how do i make fire ships? do i need to research chemistry?

Classic AOE match NICE

I'm old. Since when workers can deliver fish to the dock?

i like ur videos, its fun to watch. It would be even better if you explain a bit what could be done better. Like u sad longbows are bad against the huskals, u sad its not the right unit. But what would be the better one?

That's funny, I grew up playing star craft and I want to disagree but my AOE style is literally just build all over the map and spam multi prong attacks from all directions xD

as an aoe3 player who played 10 games aoe 2 and got around 900 Elo, i should play goths.

l feel that saying GG lost its meaning, when the etiquette says that you have to say it theory after EVERY MATCH. That is one reason l don't play online.

yay

where do I find games against my fellow low elos. I get constantly destroyed in ranked. these videos seem like my skill level

I always wonder what T90 would say about me whilst playing this game 11

You forgot to enable normal trees for Low Elo Legends again :(

Totally seems like a SC player (or other rts).

why all pine trees? aren't there better trees, ones without leaves

Wheeew

fix the trees

gg

Classic lel match

Hello legends

I won't speak for anyone else but I always have auto-support switched on for anyone playing against the Goths

Love to see a britons picker lose but hate to see a goths picker win.

Siege!!!

Job? I know this is just a pretend game we all love and enjoy. However, that is slavery, not a job. The workers don't have free choice. Call it like it is!!!

blue is a zerg player

does everyone just play on the steam client? i dont see any rated multi player when in menus. is there like a match making site or am i just not seeing it

Everytime I see someone play britons I see them play so bad and they lose :(

This only made it to youtube to subject us to "Cow-chow."

Reach out to me in a year or whatever and I will 100% sponsor a $1k BO5 money match between these two if you can convince them to do it

my lesson would be: just dodge goths and don't play.

Civ win

No disrespect intented but Red might have played the worst game of AOE2 ive ever witnessed. That was so frustrating to watch him with every tool he needed to win and literally sit there and do nothing instead. I think if he literally just smashed his face on the keyboard over and over he would have had enough longswords to easily win

Another Blue Noob

T90, i despise your pine tree mod. Its so ugly. Every tree is identical and looks so fake. It ruins my immersion. Please disable :)

I dont like how condescending the commentary is. Not everyone has massive game knowledge, thats the point of low elo is it not?

how low is "low elo" in this game? I want to play online but this game is old, people must be generally very experienced

DANG! I really thought one Player would win for sure... Then they didn't. Wow! 😲 Thanks T90! 🙏 M 🦘🏏😎
