I don't think I've ever seen the greenskins win one of these. I don't play a lot of MP but I enjoy Turins videos. I hear tales that they're pretty average to good and do fine, in lots of matchups, but I swear 80% (or higher) of the time they show up in these matches they get krumped.
@@_khaine You were fine and responded well to the various threats, I would have been done in 5 minutes, I think this is actually where WHIII sort of fails in the MP department. Noobie chickens like me are quickly overwhelmed even if we tell our opponent we are clueless, the learning curve is so steep and it takes more than regular patience to get anywhere. Unfortunately battling the AI brings forth bad habits and straying from those is difficult. I guess WWIII is too "small" of a game to implement a ladder system.
@@_khaine Bro you crushed it, dunno if i've ever heard Turin SO stoked re. a High Elf win. Also love your solution to HElf micro-intensity - minimalist army comp, 4 main unit types, no clutter. You and Catholic Alcoholic are doing for HElves what Truebrettonian did for Ze Lady. Fight on! ⚔
3 Dragons? Is it Christmas already? Really cool game and that shoot at the start with the Goblins charging into the Silverin with their spears lined up, looked like straight out of Lord of the Rings haha.
Orcs could have just held two points and played defensively, since the Elves also didn't bring too much ranged units. Pushing the third point with their boar riders was pointless and allowed them to get taken out.
From a pure visual perspective, dragons lost their luster for me once the Chorf taurus units came in; they are just so much bigger and impressive-looking.
Fanatics didn't do great, think if he used some archers in his starting army it would have gone better, never underestimate the impact a couple goblin/Peasant/skeleton archers can have for a melee centric army. Also you think a River Troll Hag for Spirit Leech and Bjuna would do well here? They're very shootable but this army was low on arrows.
Wurzag was already using all the winds there and performed well enough, the Silverin Guards got crumped pretty hard and the Sun Dragon almost died on the surround. Spirit Leech spam could've sniped Alarielle and prevented healing, but the dragons would've still been there. Goblin fanatics were really the weak link there, it's really hard to get a good angle on the swing in general and the HE side didn't have much models, so they either did friendly fire or were wasted. Night Goblin Archers probably would've done a lot here, since poison is more useful against single entities.
Also do you think getting those Black Orc Heroes (not sure what they were called) for their Terror Resistance Aura would've been clutch here? I don't know how great they are outside of that.
If you mount him, so he wouldn't be knocked out by monsters, they can do real work against single entities. Really big attack and solid AP damage is a no joke even for dragons)
A doom diver or two would shrek those silverin and dragon princes. Keep some big boy boars in reserve to defend them from dragons/princes. Also just a few 300ish gold arrers will get tons of value vs those dragons, especially with effigy (and if you rly want to be mean you also bring a stripped down hag with just mither).
Nothing better than a Turin commentary after a long day at work. Cheers from Italy ❤
Cheers my friend!
I feel like war lions make a good pairing with dragons to help the dragons when they get swarmed by infantry
As a High Elf enjoyer it's nice to see them actually doing respectable in competitive multiplayer for once
Dude I got owned by them in the tourney the other day
@@turinRTS The hellcannon crew told me they got owned by you
i immediately had to root for the Helf army after seeing the dreaded triple dragon. super fun build, great match!
Agreed!
Seeing those two moon dragons still at full hp after all this intense fighting must have been the signal to tap out for the GS player
Turin uploads are the most consistent thing in my life
3 Dragons?!? What a chad
The Targaryen build. Alarielle and her three children, mother of dragons.

that mismicro on the storm riders was absolutely devastating to watch
lmao my bad I was so focused on microing the dragons lol
@@_khaine WP!
@@_khaine Class act! Also would still absolutely stomp me.

Gork-tier thumbnail.
bullshit it is!
That there thumbnail is most def Mork-tier!
feels so good to see high elves winning
im sad we never really see vampire coasts they are one of my favorite factions
I feel like 1 unit of reavers and maybe some basic HE spearmen could have been good here
It's not said enough: Turin is hands down the best commentator in his field!
"Who doesn't love to see Dragons?" Orks, apparently.
Missed the chance to use that thumbnail for a vampire coast battle
Already have!
i miss that mod that showed all that extra information tbh
That absolute DragonForce
One of my favorite games of all time! It was total war before total war existed......
High Elf video is insta like for me.
I like dragons.
What a Fight! You say the Elves one this one but let's be honest this was a good Waaagh!
STAUNCH
LINE
OF
SPEARS
STAUNCH 🛡
They need to get enough "Victorious fights" I don't think I've ever heard anyone say that before
silveron guard is so good, if u take care of em
3 Dragons? Is it Christmas already?

Have to say Colin is making us Asur enjoyers proud with these varied Dragon builds!
Finally we can hold our pointy ears high in triumph
Awesome build, tons of fun. Also shows how infantry ranged units are not very meta in domination though.
One of my favorite matchups, and it was played very thematically. Great watch, great commentary as always.
high elf twink GOONS greenskin big un with double dragons!
“Ridders on the storm” love it!! Made me laugh on that one 😝
9:32 well avoided good sir
One of my favorite battles this year!
🐲🐲🐲
Dam, what about the other two dragons on the value screen 😂
man i love the army comps these days:D
✌️
Ah yes.. the same old same old heal spam *yawn*
Warzag GOONED by bad dragon!
High Elves coming in with the House Targaryen build, rocking Vhagar, Meraxes, and Balerion!
Alarielle
The Everqueen, Queen of the Radiant Wood, Protector of Ghyran, Lady of Leaves, Lifemother.
Turin: Larry healing go brrrrr.
How do u turn on sfx sound while in slow motion
5:30 Damn, those fanatics to the left
what an amazing cinematic battle!
What are chav units? or chaf?
haha damn, Turin's thumbnails are always popping off ahhaha
Looks like one of the old men’s adventure magazines from the 50’s and 60’s. Now I actually want to read one

Happy to see dragons!
Love the thumbnail
Was interesting game,
sad day for the ladz

Yay Elves!
Crab attack!
Moooore!

Its so satisfying listening to the Wave Tactics on Greenskins.
Love that hE army composition with the dragons.
Colin always makes helf proud

Yeah I am loving this I want to try this army comp
Man HE main love the dragon play ❤
Colinn really is the savior of elfkind.
The horde= 70% of a full stack 😉 😜
The dreaded Dracarys build!

The thumbnail got me feeling like dad-a-chum, did-a-chick 🦞
