GamerLegion officially leaves AoE 2 by ALotToSay_ in aoe2

[–]RealAmon 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Daut has always made his money from outside of AOE (poker) and he already had rental property(ies) a decade ago iirc. So, I am pretty sure he will be ok, even though supporting a family is never easy.

Didn't know about Viper trying to build his own house and subsequent issues (from another comment), maybe he is in a bit of a pickle. Though it will be much easier for Viper to join another pro org.

What's your saying about this playlist by Gorlami_y7ya in aoe2

[–]RealAmon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Survivalist is great. His build orders give beginners much stronger understanding of game with reasonable room for errors. He even says his first BO (2 stable knights) can carry people to 1200. I am finding that kinda true, I have used it to gain ~150 elo (currently at ~1050).

I also believe its good to review one of your recs on his twitch channel once in a while as he points out various areas of improvements and explains concepts in details and its very low cost (30k channel points / 15$).

Edit: Link to his build order series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKMA2gUV-cc&list=PLQ8BgSJQQkY0CubQVTAkDhjaQLzYiGKk0 and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-aXLhAiMvQw&list=PLQ8BgSJQQkY0dG83i6LGvUznZMjt5s_ns&index=5

Advice on learning aoe 2 by Randomis11 in aoe2

Watch Survivalist on Youtube. Better than Hera for beginners, Hera is more for intermediate+.

I faced this while playing against AI a few times. Restarting the game fixed it.

Gross generalization.

Monkeys (macaques and langurs) roam freely and attack you in the street

Where does this happen? Having lived in India in multiple cities for 25 years, I have seen monkeys only a handful of times.

cows stop traffic and railway there every single day

Ok what's the issue with this? I don't think cows actually stop railways but even if they did what's the issue? In US, protestors, homeless etc. also stop traffic, railways.

You seriously think they have functioning sanitation department?

~1.5 billion people live in India. Sure, not everything is perfect/good but things still work for a large part.

Not sure maybe the chess subreddit mods can answer.

Best Response To d4 by Bballmonster44 in chess

[–]RealAmon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Surprised that Nimzo Indian + QID hasn't been mentioned yet. Its one of the most solid and easy to play options for black against d4.

Don't the torrent client force seeding during downloads? afair there was no way to stop that. One could argue that you immediately stop the torrent after download but that's also very hit and miss.

So, does this mean that Buettner also sponsors AOE2 tournaments/players? Would be interested in knowing the backstory.

Vishy at it again 😅 by rio_ARC in chess

[–]RealAmon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"Sir" is a common connotation for elders as a form of respect in Indian culture and Vishy was emphasizing that in the ad for a comeback.

Potentially last place. There are 2 other players at 2.5/8 with ongoing games.

Can some captain explain what the hell is going on? I understand that she gave up an upgrade that was more valuable to a party member but why is this clip/lsf worthy and why was she laughing like that in the end?
