- Endless man at arms with the Bulgarians in AoE2:DE. With a fresh account how many games can I win on the ranked ladder? Leave your predictions in a comment below.
Watching the last game back and I can see some opportunities to do some more damage, especially when he's building the tower behind the barracks. I should have dived in right there but I didn't see the opportunity in the moment.

Lol I actually broke the damn streak haha
Yeah thank the gods! No one man should have this much power unchecked!
Was hoping for a longer video. Thanks a lot!!
Haha gg man
Lucky tc ... Lol
@@johnkimbalb Lucky? You mean well placed :)
4:29 im that female villager and the rhino is life
And the scout is self-doubt
id like to see this go on!
Gh.8
Against me you will win endless amounts of games with this strategy.
This is a great series. I'm definitely looking forward to watching more.
Little did he know... there would be no more
Damn that was amazingly entertaining. Watching 9 matches compressed into 25minutes really kept it exciting non-stop even tho it was always the exact same strat. Would love to see more of that :)
Cool Idea for a series, keep it up
More of these please. I really enjoy you illustrating and teaching these strat
I really hope this is the start of a new favourite series of mine. Great idea zak I love the format and the editing. Ideas for other cheese strats could be endless hoang rush never going feudal or tati rush? :)
Awesome dude! Love seeing your videos again. Keep it up please!
really nice idea for a series. I think a forward baracks would have improved this strat a lot ;)
I don't like that you broke your own rules and went castle + mangonel. The fun part about this weird cheese strat is the commitment. just rush down the tc with man at arms while the corpses of your units pile up when they will not resign
Fair point! I’ll make sure to do that next time ;)
@@ZeroEmpires I agree with the original comment. You could maybe change the rule of no more vils in feudal so you can develop a better economy and mass produce those men at arms. It would be awesome to see you take down TCs with just pure brute force in feudal. Anyway, great video!
@@Zonalyre exactly. I was wondering why the villager limitation was there at all! 🤔
Puns and cheese... Cheesepuns... Yes please. Couldnt have asked for a better series, keep it up my man
Super entertaining kind of video. Would love to see more like this. :)
I loved it! Would definitely like to see more. I'd also like it if you allowed yourself margin of deviation from the cheese, so that if you think you can win the game with a tweak, you can apply it.
Thank you for the quality content!
very nice format, pls do more!
Loved this. Looking forward to more in the series!!
Nice video! As you start with 200 stone and never use it in this strategy, there is some space for improvement. Collect 50 more stone and go for 2 towers in a spots where you can't hit directly with the man-at-arms. For example in the last game a single tower behind his wood line (which he wouldn't even notice before it'd be up) would win the game. Send 2-3 vills to tower up and add 2-3 vills from the TC to keep your eco on the proper level
Cool video! Greetings from Bulgaria. :)
was so pumped to find another cool age yt and see a cool unique series but then see there’s only one video in the playlist and he hasn’t uploaded in a year ;(
What a great idea! Keep it up!
This was awesome to follow alongside!
Huge video, thanks from a foreigner, very clear ! +1 sub
What an amazing series. I hope you come back to do more.
Only man at arms? Is this mangonel a disguised man at arms? ;)
Nice video, I love, how you explain your actions, keep going!
At this point should've played the last game just to see where it would rank in the leader boards, good series!
That cheese joke was amazing dude!
This was a great video! :)
Great series!
Andrzej the 'mask a pony' was a masterpiece!
And*
This is great, you should do more!
Welcome back , cheers
Time for an update: "How many games can I win with only Militia? AoE2:DE | Goths Edition"
How many games can i win by ONLY luring the enemy's boar?? FIND OUT SOON!!!
Answer:
NONE!
Awesome
Hope to see more =)
Nice idea, yeah keep going with this.
I liked to see how this strategy could be followed with aging up, mangonel, etc.
Yes, it breaks the rule.
But helps to learn how to use the strategy effectively.
I think it's much better than another "challenge" video.
Yes !!
Interesting. More of this !!
Fun games, keep doing these.
Also i think that this strat has a sort of "ELO" cap, at certain point you will face people who actually wall or counter you strat with the obvious deficiences, like low eco, almos not scouting and slow speed, 3 miners in a far gold for example.
Great video! Liked!
Loved the video! Do another one with only archer rush!
Been trying something similar with goths, but I was going up relatively normal at 21 pop and was also making the MAA from 2 baracks, that I put at 2 different locations next to his base. Obviously I'm lacking the speed and often the enemy is ready to defend himself or counter raid me. Nonetheless, it worked many times and is definitely a lot of fun! Perhaps I'll try your build soon, or adjust so that I could make vils behind it...
Anyways, this is an amazing idea and I really hope you turn this into a big series, it was super fun to watch!
I think you could have mentioned at the start why the bulgarians are uniquely suitable for this strategy.
He did say they get the man at arms upgrade for free. What else is there to say?
wouldn't the lithuanians be better?
@@matthaeushilpold2134 Lithuanians allows a faster dark age rush of militia and possibly faster Feudal. However the M@A upgrade is 140 resources and involves a training time and idling barracks production. Bulgarians are strong not only because they skip the cost of M@A upgrade but because the upgrade is instant upon arriving Feudal. Militia trained in dark age will arrive just in time to be upgraded by the bonus. Not to mention in this strategy it's not a typical M@A rush to slow the opponent with 3-5 but is an ongoing spam of them to overwhelm and close out the game. A Lithuanian style would promote a fast castle behind Militia whilst Bulgarians better promotes the M@A spam.
Both have a bonus to help the strategy yes, I would argue Bulgarians bonus is that little bit better in this case.
@@liamkerbey8320 thanks though! Denying berries gold and lumber with a hefty drush (say, 10 militia) with lithuanians, then up to feudal for m@a -> would that be a thing?
@@matthaeushilpold2134 its a very 'cheesy' all in strategy. It might pay off for you in winning some games but if you cant find the damage considering your large investment then you will lose.
You wouldnt see this at a pro level as they easily counter it with walling vills and getting archers out to kite MaA. The heavy investment into so many MaA would delay castle too much and then they would quickly lose to knights or simply get outboomed.
3 militia should be enough to delay your opponent. If you make 10 you essentially need to kill them for it to pay off.
NEED MORE of these!
Does feel like a “Sandbagger Series”. Very fun/entertaining to watch, but not sure if it’s enjoyable for the other players.
nice, this is going in my strat book
Awesome idea for a series
Wow love the concept of taking a cheesy strategy and seeing it play out several times in one condensed video.
very good play.
i guess you reacted well when the situation turned bad at some games. It seems to be a workable strategy at the intermediate level(or even upper-inter)
I feel like the intermediate level doesnt react very well to Drush, and they kind of collapse when the start doesnt go smoothly
As someone within this group: its true. Any game vs Lithuanians with fast drush I died so hard it was embarrassing :D
Mascarpone haha I definitely puffed some air out of my nose at that
i do something similar with the magyars with scout cavalry and a blacksmith. also as you progressed in games you adjust your strat like making spearmen lol
I love this series idea, but you should definitely be allowed to keep producing villagers. I want to see how far this can go.
Especially with blacksmith upgrades cheaper you can have fully upgraded man at arms pretty quickly
Great format of the video.
Edit: the pun is Andy Ostroy...
Cool Vlog!
We need more videos man!
I fight like pig on the ice for months to break the 1000 and you troll yourself up to ~1300 straight away, feels good :D But nice vid :)
A bit similar to this strat, but you could try to go Feudal as fast as possible with Lithuanians (and their +150 food bonus), maybe with 14 vils, then make archers from two ranges. Or tower rush + walls.
Great strategy! Where this build order can be found? I'm very interested on trying it, but I asume it doesn't work with 9 on Food, 2 on Wood and 3 on Gold right off the bat, right? I understand from the video you re-assign vills here and there to prevent falling short on Wood for Barracks and Mill/ Lumber Camp or getting TC idle time...
Great content anyway and I'd love to see more videos for this series!
Yeah I like this. Take more ingrediens for your fondue and try with different cheesy like strats! I love it!
I love this series. also great name "manwitharms". please do more in this series like cuman TC douche, or incan vill and trush
yes please more fondue!
Very nice video
Man At Arms = my favorite unit also the best :)
Yeah same. They look sexy to me
When he stopped that villager from getting away from the rhino 🤣🤣
Damn. My guess was 9. You almost had it!
5:44 It "Woloallow" you to do a surprise landing?
@ZeroEmpires will you make more Strat Fondue vids? Can't wait!
Love the series idea.
For the lazy what is the general build order guide?
Deadass making a new steam account for this
So damn funny. Im a noob but still gonna try this. I think of a full feudal thrash all-in maybe could work.
i did it it with slavs all the time. I won 20 games in row and got #3 during the beta
sicc strat for my favorite civ
best aoe cast ever
That shr!mp last guy was my opponent in a game today
How did it go?
@@ZeroEmpires he started spamming just cammels in post imp in the arena map, but I had map control so I won
@@vichonavarrete9929 no way, you flipped the shr!mp??? :O
This is how I play Goths. Because who would want to wait till Imperial Age when you can flood your enemies with infantry in the Feudal Age?
go to the top with this
So what other strategy fondues are coming up?
May I say that I ate a nice fondue yesterday evening with my parents, sis, step bro and nephews. It was delicious. We all left the table with double-sized bellies.
Someone did this to me yesterday. I won so i feel like 300 elo higher now :D
Can somebody share the exact build order? I manage to click feudal no sooner that the 7'30 secs mark. I do something wrong. Do you go on berries before feudal?
how about a classic, c̶a̶n̶n̶o̶n̶ tower rush.
I wanna see you try this strategy vs Hoang ^^
17:21 ! no I was waiting for 40 man at arms to destroy the town centreeeeeeeeeeee
I want to see you repeat the same strategy but with a twist which is that you are allowed to build as many offensive/defensive towers as necessary in feudal age and you can train as much villagers as you want. Also in castle age you are allowed to create as many mangonels and scorpions as you want
So just play normally...
This is like the AOE DE version of the classic SC II double 11 rax xD
a singular man at arm
I'm subscribed to this channel yet I've never seen a video from here as a suggestion. Anyone else?
I chuckled and then exhaled at 20:20... it's like he knew
Did you use blacksmith upgrades every time?
definitely gonna try this lmao
manwitharms 111 awesome video
Worth noting it is possible to take down a TC with MAA once you get both smith upgrades. You need a lot however (35 or 40 from memory). This was probably the way you could have won the last game.
trying to do this vs the "hard" ai and failed.. had to go full HAM with the cobra car :D
You should have shown your time stats in these videos, I'm wondering how fast you need to up.
The AI was smart with archers and it's tough to avoid tc fire
does not work with AI so well because AI will miro every unit heavily and it spreads its units far off but i have been doing this with goths and so far 3 straight wins from yesterday plan to continue till i can
No other game will make you rage like this one.
Would it work with Celts? Their infantry runs faster
11 nice strats
cheese strat idea:Try a video where you do the Lithuanians instant-drush
i think vills should be allowed. So that you can add barracks and really spam those MAA and potentially brute force through defences. The cheese strat must be relentless :D
15:50 I have the High ground, don't do this
I think I need a proper build order for that. Can I read it up anywhere?
The cheese stands alone
Great Video, but would have loved to have the time on the screen
