    12 Hour Suit Stream featuring Special Guests!

    Posted: 07 Jun 2020 08:12 PM PDT

    Hey everyone!

    As some of you might know, fortunately and thanks to a lot of great people, my stream has been growing tons and because of that, or rather thanks to that, I decided to set some goals to give you guys something in return for all the love and support you've been showing. So I went for two big goals. The first one being that at 2000 Subscribers I'd do a 12h stream wearing a suit and packed with events, since you guys voted for that idea. And the second goal being that at 3000 Subscribers I'd do a 24h stream. You might've heard about a goal of shaving my head at 5000 Subscribers but that's not a place we want to get to lmao.

    Being that said, I'm doing a special 12 hour stream this Thursday, June 11th. It is my 2000 Subscriber special and it will consist of me wearing a suit (no not a birthday suit lol) and streaming a full day of aoe content. I wanted the stream to be packed with events and not just my regular day to day routine. Thanks in advance to the special guests who agreed to join me on stream, its gna be a blast!

    The stream will start at 12gmt (8est) and end at 24gmt (20est)

    Schedule:
    12-14 gmt: Intro + Ranked Games Warmup
    14-16 gmt: Viper vs Mr Yo Bo5 Showmatch
    16-18 gmt: AfterMath Showmatch (1v1 or 2v2)
    18-20gmt: Spirit of The Law + Hera vs Riot Dash + Nili 2v2 Bo5 Showmatch
    20-22gmt: Going over Boa2 Finals Recorded Games + Insights
    22-24gmt: Challenge Games vs Subscribers (1v2, 1 handed, etc)

    The event will take place on my twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/hera_aoc

    If you want more information on the settings join my discord: https://discord.gg/XtHzdSe

    Hope to see you all there, its gonna be a fun time!

    Option to select a pool of favourite Civs

    Posted: 08 Jun 2020 03:41 AM PDT

    I would like to see this implemented into DE. Would be great if you could select a bunch of civs you like to play with (or if even customize this dependant on the map/game mode) which you could then random from.

    As it stands at the moment if I click random civ it will take into account the civs I've been playing but not that I might have been trying out a civ which I don't pacticularly wish to play again.

    Thoughts?

    TheViper leaves Mixer

    Posted: 08 Jun 2020 02:19 AM PDT

    After having streamed exclusively on Mixer since August 2019, the well-known community leader, streamer, "silver-boy" / snek / Saladin, and Team Secret representative is back to streaming on other platforms:

    Thank you so much for all the support over my one year at Mixer!

    My experience at this platform was awesome, but I will be continuing my journey elsewhere.

    Thank you! <3

    Where do you think he will go? Back to Twitch? YouTube? Facebook?

    I basically copypasted the /r/leagueoflegends post-match format, and filled it with aoe 2 stuff. Obviously, it doesn't have the icons that the original threads have, but if you have any suggestions, or noticed a factual mistake, please say so!

    I built a scenario to show several QoL suggestions. This is the trailer (any resemblance to the DE reveal trailer is not purely coincidental).

    Market “abuse”

    Hi all, new player, I've watched viper and Daut and stuff and hear the term market abuse, I'm wondering what that is? Thanks!

    How do I manage early aggression and still not messing up my castle time?

    Posted: 08 Jun 2020 03:36 AM PDT

    I have been playing a lot of 1v1 ranked lately and can't manage to go above 1100 Elo. I watch the replays of games I lost and try to learn from it. But I can't figure out one thing: How do I decide whether to go for Fast Castle or not (on open maps).

    Mostly, I try to go for feudal aggression (Scouts) and like to finish games in Castle Age. If my feudal aggression does not succeed (opponent is walled, running into spears and losing numbers), I am super late with going up (24+ min) and will face an opponent that is already in Castle and harrasses me with Crossbows or knights.

    My Eco is way behind then, running on 1 TC while my opponent has 3. I always lose games due to bad eco on Arabia, Kilimanjaro or Mountain Pass, but I manage to win 90% of games where FC is the play (e.g. Hill Fort).

    TLDR; How to be in Castle Age in a reasonable time while still pushing with Scouts, MAA or Archers? Or should I just not do it?

    Very noob question about units and combat

    Posted: 08 Jun 2020 07:08 AM PDT

    So, some units and unit types are stronger against certain units, i get that. However, when you have a big war with tons of different units from both sides, how can you make sure you get to exploit those weaknesses? My units can hardly walk where i want them to during a battle thanks to all the other units in the way. How can i point the specific units to fight against units they are strong against?

    I'm playing the definitive edition with friends, and the pathfinding for units seems way too finicky to use strategically. Am i doing something wrong?

    Question about Goths

    Posted: 07 Jun 2020 07:17 PM PDT

    Hi folks, new here. I really like playing Goths and rushing infantry, but apparently that strategy is predictable and easily countered. Is there a plan B for Goths? I what other civ would you recommend to play an infantry strategy?

    Pilgrims nothing regicide

    Posted: 08 Jun 2020 01:21 AM PDT

    Hi team, wondering if anyone knows how to combine regicide with pilgrims nothing ? I've got the mod and I can play regicide on the map but the relic doesn't activate (even when victory condition says standard). Anyone got an idea ? Thanks
