44:50 I had a nightmare a couple of weeks ago about this, it was one condo or something taking out my TC and I just couldn't hit it with one single arrow! I woke up from that feeling very exhausted, the TC fire these days has definitely set a psychological footprint onto me.
Slam for MVP of the series, great hold on islands and awesome on African Clearing, really ackward all the Elite Eagle stuff but really good, this tourney has been a treat so far
Seems like making outposts on islands may be a bit underrated. That would have alerted China to the landing from Mentalist immediately. That was a crazy competitive and chaotic game either way, but there was a pretty huge gap in between the pocket players on China's island that had 0 vision. You'd think it would be worth the res to try and correct that.
I wish there was more high level team game content and tournaments. Some of the strategies are so fun. I guess imbalance in skill is magnified in certain match ups. Am I wrong in thinking that we've never had a huge team game scene? I.e tyrantA Vs TyrantB needing the same team to play each other for good games? Would love to see more games and tournaments to see more WWP, baguettes, Finland, and others!
The real counter to the Gurjara ponies was the Samurai. They absolutely destroyed the dodgy ponies. It was epic. Its my favourite moment. Saw it on Dave's channel. Great cast still. You guys da best! 😊
On the nomad map they should have walled lyx into his tc right at the start, with all three of them it wouldn't have taken long or used too much res and they could deal with him whenever they wanted.
I feel that, in the event you don't want to use the player name, it would be better to use the player color rather than their alt name (or main name as it may be). I know lots of people recognize them but for me it was confusing at times. I like to check the score list to remind me what color the player name is associated with and that was impossible all through this video. Really great content as always thanks for the video T90.
I would give the team bonus to a New Mezzo Tribal civ that uses canoe navies. (Thus not OP) Messo Tribal civ UT Castle:Herbalism - units heal slowly when close to trees or berry bushes. Civ bonus 1: Canoes have + 10% added HP Civ bonus 2: Vills move faster when tasked to garrison (Idea of Robby Lava) Civ bonus 3:Alpaca wool trade, Killing a livestock animal (Alpaca/Lama) adds 10 gold to your stockpile. Civ bonus 4: Livestock gathered at a mill lasts longer. Team bonus: Houses you build provide +2 pop space to your ally & Enemy Dock positions are visible
casting means real time, instead of your advice and tips focus whats happening in the game, the mini map is flarin and you have a story and the play on the building
I love Dave's bias. It's so entertaining. 😂 He's still fair, but he gets so hyped for Canada; it's hilarious. The Samurai vs Gurjara Dodge Ponies was my favourite moment. 😮😂
Hera is an impeccable 1v1 player, but he loses the advantage of the signature style of precise, clean game-play in team games. It seems like his mindset is to always take the booming role, whereas I think they would dominate even more if he focused more on micro and only fully boomed once they had secured map control. In team games you play a role and ideally one that suits your style, but the role trumps the preferred style.
In game 3, I think Canada should have had their flanks go to China's pockets too. As soon as you see this strat coming, just let the fish go, and make sure you get the opponent's fish too via pockets attacking on water. Then you are even at least. Could be ahead since you back off fish earlier and save the wood.
I dunno, I think Canada had the right idea. Especially with one of your pockets being Japanese you know your team won't take much damage from an early grush at the pocket, so just mass more galleys with your stronger eco and slowly but surely win water completely. Having guaranteed full water control in the mid game is more important than killing fish quickly and potentially throwing control away imo.
What do you mean ?? Canada has a good base players. Hera Slam Chris Mentalist Silverstar Survivalist Obadiah Barney Lucas Tigger Others can be mentioned with itsthepikes, poisn, marauder(dave)jimmy2times
@@rickychardzz First, 2k ELO is over 350 players at the moment. So no, 2k ELO isn't enough. Second, ELO isn't the relevant factor. Most (non-community) games here tend to be from big tournaments and while slam can play at that level on a good day, he is probably a tier below that level and hasn't been in many big 1v1 tournaments. The biggest were TTL season one where he got relegated to gold and season 2 where he narrowly avoided relegation. That doesn't mean he is bad, he is better than 99.9% of players, but he isn't in thep top 25 or so that regularly get featured in big tourneys.
In the 1st game what the hell was slam doing. He is Itialians up against Incas which means he should dominate water and he just stopped producing navy and let red go through which destroyed all the other player's docs. How does that even happen?
US team had t90 etc, so it's a pretty good level. But they finished last in their group in gold league and then were eliminated by Finland B in the silver league playoffs
The US has a few good players, but at the highest level, we are lacking. Some people (ahem, Viper) put Daniel in the top 20 players in the world and T90 on a good day might be top 50. Bloodless might be top 100. Not sure who else we have near the top. It would be nice to see the US games casted, or even just T90's POV. Compare to Canada, Finland, or China, those teams have multiple players in the top 20/ top 50. Not only that, some of those teams have been playing together for years. I do think T90, Daniel, and Bloodless have been playing together a lot more the last year or so. Viper even tried to get them all on a team together for Rage Forest.
@@mattks1001 inc, influ, hasan, t90, daniel, scotty, bloodless are all 2k+. But i believe usa A was missing a leader. I listen to team canada and you can tell that chris and liam(mentalist) comes up with civs and strategies. They also watch the replays to know where to improve. Plus add hera and slam and that team is op
hey T90, been watching your videos for couple of weeks I really liked them, I would suggest you make a highlight video for all the good moment in the 2 hours long video, maybe around 25 minutes that would be cool, people these days do not watch movies for 1 hour... zero attention span
Hello, 🌹🏵🐦🐦🐞🐞May I share an Old Testament Verse with you from Daniel 7:14 "And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a Kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should SERVE Him; his dominion is an Everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom shall not pass away, and His Kingdom that which shall not be destroyed." Also, can I share Isaiah 53:5 " But HE was WOUNDED For our TRANSGRESSIONS, he was BRUISED for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and with His STRIPES we are HEALED." God the Father loves you so much that He sent Holy Sinless Jesus (His Holy Son) to earth to be born of a virgin.Then, to grow up and die on a cross for our sins. He was in the tomb for 3 days, then Father God raised Holy and Sinless Jesus Christ (Y'shua) to Life! He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must receive Sinless Jesus sincerely to be God's child(John 1:12).After we get saved by grace through faith in Christ, if we truly love the Lord Jesus Christ, then we will obey Jesus(John 14:15). Mark 1:15 "And saying, the time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: Repent ye, and believe the gospel." Jesus said in John 14:15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments. "There's a real hell. It says in Revelation 21:8 "But for the cowardly, & unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, & immoral persons sorcerers & idolaters & all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire & brimstone..." Please sincerely receive Holy Jesus and put your true faith and trust in Him today and please repent. Will you have a Real encounter with Holy Lord Jesus (Y'shua is His Hebrew Name) and stay in a Genuine relationship with Him daily please?
There is no such thing as an overboom unless you are pop capped and need army. The top players such as Hera and Vinchester will tell you this. You said Hera overboomed when he as at 170-180 pop. I've seen Hera with 160 vills multiple times and if he needs army he will delete excess vills at that time. It's disappointing that a top caster like yourself believe in this concept.
There are also top players like Viper who talk about overbooming. it's not a conspiracy theory perpetuated by T90. The problem with overbooming is that it wastes resources at a critical transition period and will cause that transition period to be delayed. The extra resources at 45 minutes don't make up for the slowed transition at 40 minutes. A 5 minute delay in transition to military at the high level can lose games, especially against teams like China who are super aggressive. There are specific scenarios where it is more difficult to be punished for an over boom, say on closed map team games. But in general, T90 is not wrong.
Hera did a great job in game 1 because he slinged his ressources. His economy was to strong for his military. Now yess overbooming is a thing when it is 30 military vs 60. It is hard to win fights when half the military even though you have double economy. What i know is most players will produce vills until pop cap, and then delete some afterwards
Mentalist’s landing on game 1 was clutch.
All 4 canadians are leyends

Thanks …you are talented
About that team bonus you talked about. Just give it to Italians as a normal bonus. You share LoS anyways
57:00 what a life saver!!! fans are incredible
i think YO should play India, and VIVI should play mongol in GAME 4
30:00 trade is not cheaper for team, only for italians after imp ut if i remember correctly
Hmm in Game 1 Yo was without a TC for a while there, I wonder if he noticed.
T90: tim is known to be a slow player, he doesn’t have the fastest micro
Dude he is like 43 years old, give him a break 😂
good games - what I've seen majorly lacking tho are the common lack of walls & siege. ..
You pronounced Slavs wrong bro.
Good cast and a great match.
thanks so much !

In terms of top competitive 1v1 play, Hera is really the only Canadian in the picture.

where do we even watch this. since you dont post these to youtube anymore?
Who needs elite eagles?
"Cheap, Malay chonkers. And the fun fact about that is that he meant to pick Magyard." 😂 Liar!
maybe the position of the first dock . but every dock you build becomes visible for the enemy is not a good one for the game.
*T90!!!*
Hera so good at defense why is he in the pocket so often?
Canada is looking big stong.
What happened to the TCs on the starting islands?
gray color should be switched with purple. Purple is odd with yellow and with red. Purple belongs with blue.
