At first, he wanted to invest 100% of his food into Cavalier and upgrades. After that, he probably thought it was over and didn't need to make any more Villagers. That logic makes no sense, of course, since even if that were true, there would be no downside to continue to queue Villagers, but that is how many people think.

It felt more like blue simply stopped playing alltogether after his initial attack - as if he was so shocked that he didn't kill red then and there, and from that moment he just mindless trickled cavs into pikes until he realized he was hitting his face repeatedly at the same wall and then he quit.

That's when the fight started. When you're in a state of war, you don't make babies.

Y'all are taking the LEL logic 1 step too far with the time and flanks and whatnot. Take the logic one step back- it's because it means blue only has to defend from the front, bc who would choose to attack stone walls over palisades? He just eliminated 2 of the 3 possible directions his enemy would ever attack him from.

Split up strategy from Red was super effective. Blue: "You're dead now!" Red: "You're right, I am dead. Or am I?!" Blue: *Resigns*

Whenever my base get cleaned out in a team game, i just re-build in someone else’s base and then come back later. Actually i love those situations

Actually showed that stubbornness can come in a good and a bad flavor: Not giving up versus not adapting to your opponent.

Blue would've literally won with scouting. Ironically, that's after he scouted the whole map and it was RED who had really poor scouting. Blue would've won with scouting after he killed red's main.

These videos are so laid back, I love it. Just so nice to come out of tournament coverage into this.

11:00 Where are you going to position your army? On the front of course. That means you are already protected there. On the flanks you arent though, so thats why LeL tend to fortify their flanks first. I approve.

Did blue sign a no-imp pledge or something?

35:32 The best moment. Blue's cavalry forgot spears are good against horses.

at 11:00 I think the thought is that it makes it more likely that an enemy will attack the part of your base where your unit buildings and waypoints are at. It's like a baby step between "maybe i should stop full stone walling because of how expensive is" and full palisade walling instead

I’m very late to the party, as I only recently found this channel. This low ELO Legends is amazing, because it makes the game accessible! It’s so easy to watch a high level game and think “I’m never gonna play a ranked match because I’ll just get destroyed.” Not so much after watching this one!

So, at the start I was wondering why they are low elo, they seemed fine with managing the economy, queueing villagers. But then towards the mid I realized that there is always always always some aspect where these kinds of players are completely oblivious to, like the pikemen being cheap and good against expensive knights...

19:00 blue is building stable economy

I think the spreading out makes for a very dynamic game. Could definitely be fun again to watch. I'm an overt masochist. :D

I used to go pure archers on the theory that with enough archers you can kill any melee unit before it can close. And playing as Britains I would always go cav archer because I wanted the speed, not knowing that they lacked crucial upgrades.

you mentioned at the start that it's weird he spread his villagers and that goths are good at comebacks. i think red planned to lose the main base from the start.

straggler trees are beautiful, they give so much flavor to you town.

This game remonds me of a post i saw once that went something like, Me playing franks when my opponent makes pikes: "i should make a tech switch" My brain: "but you are franks you make THE HORSES"

You know the most frustrating thing about red and other players like him in low elo? It isn't the making archers as goths and spending like 20+ minutes not making infantry at all. It wasn't the holes in the house walls. It wasn't the lack of scouting. So many low elo people have such iffy booming with tons of TC idle time. They get attacked and sometimes lose their base as shown here and then they immediately kick it into overdrive and start booming like crazy to "make up for lost time"...if they'd just boom like that to begin with they'd be in such better positions!

Blue stopped producing villagers at around 50 total. Had he gone up to 100 (or as was said, made other unit types), red would have never had a chance.

g uses the low elo cockroach strat and can compete against stronger players with it. This is low elo legend material.

Wtf. Blue still had it 😂 i guess he just said fuck it. Not gonna waste more time here 😂

That was awesome. Love LEL :D

This was incredible

And games like this one are what brought most of the balance change ideas on the Age of Empires forums -.-'

Oh my god, Red built the mill right next to the gold and stone, miles from the bushes. I think he was trying to place a mining camp.

It does not beg the question. It raises the question. This drives me crazy.

Honestly, if Red had only one stable hidden away somewhere, with 5-6 scouts he could at least distract blue's army, if not even remove blue's economy/population.

Honestly, I'd probably rather take a spear to the chest than an arrow. I did archery for a while when i was a kid and while both would absolutely suck, a bow is way more powerful. Sure, the mass of a thrown spear would help it do a lot of damage, but the mechanical leverage of a bow makes it able to penetrate so much deeper. We used targets made of very thick and heavy foam matting and the arrows, even from the fairly weak bow I was using when I was like 12, would stick out the back of the target that was maybe 25-30 cm thick.

23:42 the unit you were trying to think of was Malian CA

As someone who hates being raided and does the same thing as blue I feel I can take a crack at why he stone walls the back. If your awareness is low then you want to minimise the points of entry to your base, stone walling the back makes it more likely the enemy will be 'funneled' to the easier palisades. Its an effective way to encourage the enemy to break in where you want them to enter so you can focus on the front and not lose half your econ to a back raid before you realise youre in trouble. Another layer to this is that once i stone wall the back i dont usually put anything back there other than farms if i get to the end game. If im going to be raided and need to quickly put a 2nd layer of walls i can do that at the front where most of my villagers are close faaaar quicker and easier than if i have to trek villagers to the back to try plug a hole. Ive had way too many enemies bust through my palisades before my villagers could get there for me to risk it anymore. In short, stone walls are an arrow pointing to where i want the enemy to fight me.

I don't got the time to watch all of these videos or be on twitch to watch live; but man I NEVER miss a low elo legends if I can help it!

the immovable object vs stubborn cavalier spam

I have lured "boars" to my mill but I prefer the TC because you can put it under the middle and make the vils drop food instantly with a couple clicks. But then, red didn't do that either so....

This proves that studying the tech tree always pays off. Red knew what a counter is. Blue didnt. He had won too many games with cav rushing. 😎

How can blue be 600 ELO is beyond me. Like seriously... I play like old stinking boot and I am still better in counter-unit theory than he is. ._. This is the lowest of low ELO's logic. This is how I played single player when I was 12. I cheated alot of resources, spammed heavy cav and eventually won.

loving how fervour payed off!!

GOTHSSSS!!! LFG!!!! You're my boy, red!

I want to see more the legend of g! Great game

I have no experience with this game but the commentary is so good. Do you have a diplomacy playlist ?

So I think that my move when I lose a game is to send all my units into my opponent’s army. Seems like a lot more entertaining than just resigning

Reg is a perfect example as to why I don't give up until im knocked out (or lose all Vil's, then thats literally GG for me) theres always that slight possibility to win after an enemy exploits a vulnerability that likely cost you the whole game. Never quit, never surrender, but if you're going to do so, at least keep playing legitimately & not clinging on just to be a troll, thats just rude & unnecessary.

Honestly I get the impression Red is simply the better player here. He could and should have scouted out blue more, and seen what he was going for before it actually hit him, but once he saw what it was he knew exactly what to do to counter it, and Blue was either unaware of how hard he was getting countered, or just wanted to make cavs no matter what, and he was punished for it. I honestly feel like if either player scouted more fervently, the game would have tilted in their favor significantly: Red because he seems to be counter-happy, and Blue to spot all those corner bases and stop them before they can scale up too much. Scouting's important, folks :D
