It seems to me that you are finding some energy again and are pouring a bit of it into AoE - makes me happy to see. Dont strain youself, Nilster - wed rather have a bit of Nili all the time than a lot of Nili some of the time.
Great video! Glad to see you back Nili. I don't think anyone would dare to try and cheat, as MBL says. I recall 2 years ago or so, a group of unknown random players in Asia inflated the Team ranked by letting themselves win/lose, they were like +3.8K ELO pretty ridiculous.
Scissoring is a fitting term for the skirm v skirm battles I've seen on the EW ladder. Both MbL and Larry seems to have transitioned quickly and well back to the EW settings, and I think it will be tough to fight for the spots among these two and Hera.
@@NiliAoE2 I hope there will be a video showcasing all the maps with common strategies and potential issues. Looks like many maps still have aspects that need to be worked on but deadline is drawing closer.
fans still don't have anymore information about watch parties, maps are still a mess and tickets are being teased but no info, less than 3 months to go and people have little to no idea where they should be when the event starts...
Imagine if Lierrey and MBL played twenty games right now. Lierrey won the first 10 and got to 2k highest elo, and then MBL won the next ten and got to 2k highest elo. They would be guaranteed to qualify. This ladder idea is dumv
You could also strategically trap people in a game. Like if you are ahead by a lot of points and then just play hide and seek for four hours just to waste the "chasers" time
i think lierey is falling into the trap of "it is like this now so it will continue to be like this" i think the activity in the ladder definitely might ramp up in the coming weeks. the issue was that the qualifying period was too long for EW
It makes too much sense to camp so that your points don't circulate back, and no one outside of top5-20 is going to be playing that ladder. It will be hard for others to catch up
It doesn't really make sense to camp anyway, unless you got to the top by pure fluke and won 20-0. They all got there with skill so can maintain it with skill. Perhaps it might shuffle a bit on the last day due to bad luck, that should be taken into account closer to the time.
2:48 The instant regret from nili, and everyone's slight smirk. 🤣
whoopsi
Most of the time I feel like Nili is too serious, but then he comes out with a banger like this 😆.
the lord will rise and take his deserved throne, DauT will make his comeback
lets see if our prayers will be heard
In DauT We Trust🙏🏻
"Scissoring" joke was gold.
great video. I LOVE MBL. :D

Thank you Nili, for this video! ❤
You're so welcome!
2:52 - damn Nili, love it. Very quick!
Perfect content as always ♡
trying my best
Hyped! Lets see wat time will bring us. Hopefully DauT.
He is grinding
Liereyy is a crack up in this video great banter!

Well the question is where you draw the line for cheating? Is playing 95% of your skill cheating? Is not civ picking cheating?

Great video and thanks for sharing.
you are welcome!
WES team & MBL looks really strong in this settings 💪💪 - its going to be really crazy before the cutting date
Trying to distract from Sebastian?
@@NiliAoE2 😅 haha he will definitively try his best, the ladder does really look tough to grind! Margou feed incoming 🔥🔥 🤣
If margougou only plays 3 games a day he should end up at +51 streak
@@NiliAoE2 😅
Very interesting to hear the two different opinions / current states of grinding or not
@18:10 Nili confirmed for Spain lets go
I announced it in the Jordan video
I love these videos!
more to come!
@@NiliAoE2 I hope there will be a video showcasing all the maps with common strategies and potential issues. Looks like many maps still have aspects that need to be worked on but deadline is drawing closer.
not by me
This is like a never seen before drafting just instead of civs, players are drafting players to play against 11
and the civ and the map
Would be interesting to get hear someone from the 1700-1800 group talk about their strategy.
Who would you like?
@@NiliAoE2 Sebastian, Mihai, Hearttt, Daut would make interesting interview partners.
Hype
If I somehow match up against the pros, I'll show no mercy. They will have to earn their 3 points.
Liereyy ♡ Handsome as always
do invited players dont have to play?
correct
Weird how Capoch is currently 4th and nobody even mentions him. Is there something I dont know?
He grinded early and civ picked before others did
Mbl likes byzantines? No way lol
Mbl loves his spearmen 111
Mainly skirm+camel, no?
MBL played more in 1 week than I've played in my life.
time to get on that grind

there certainly are problems with the system

there is timelimit in game
2:51 I feel like your scissor joke didn't quite make the cut
😏
Whoa, the aoe2 world is *wild* these days if you guys are scissoring on the ladder 🤯
yeah somewhat unnecessary from me...
@@NiliAoE2 just some silly fun, it's all good lol 😊
i think lierey is falling into the trap of "it is like this now so it will continue to be like this" i think the activity in the ladder definitely might ramp up in the coming weeks. the issue was that the qualifying period was too long for EW
well it was more of announcement phase before
@@NiliAoE2 also hera has been claiming he wants to grind, that should really spice things up, everyone will try to snipe him
why would they?
i think i heard it from you, qualifying alone is 9k? that's a huge bounty, there has to be more than 4 people interested
yeah but why snipe him?
It makes too much sense to camp so that your points don't circulate back, and no one outside of top5-20 is going to be playing that ladder. It will be hard for others to catch up
well you will have to beat high rated players to properly climb
Love an MBL video
From watching this.... MBL seems like a really serious contender.
yeah more than I thought, good for him
Yeah I'm pleasantly surprised by this.
Im only here for nili jokes. Dont mind me.

well if you win 60% of the time vs #5-#10 why would you risk pushing their rating 40% of the time?
@@NiliAoE2 my brain is fried so I'm just gonna agree with you. ;D
✂✂
shame on you Larry for disqualifying the lord.
there still is time
Sacrilegous
heresy
NILI! /HUG
oh and hi larry and mbl :D
*hug*
Mbl negative as always. 😂😂😂
