Dagnajan can beat Genghis khan 1v1 though
F'course it was gonna be Temujin, it's not even a question
Found Wally anyone?
Le Hire will always be the #1 hero in my heart
The irony between Minamoto Yoshitsune and Oda Nobunaga was that Yoshitsune was known for his martial prowess while Nobunaga was a cunning strategist and tactician.
I guess their stats reflects their accomplishments vs their actual abilities to fight.
Lol Jungingen, the boi who rushed with his Templars into Lithuanian cavalray and then got flanked and died in his first battle
Please continue the series about the real life counterpart of the wonders! There are plenty of new civs since your last video, and they were very informative and fun!
You guys should listen to The Great Chinggis Khaan by the Hu. Great song and its appropriate for the placement.
I have a quistion. What is the best siv to main as a noob trying to start playing AOE2
Your pronounciation of Ulrich von Jungingen was actually fairly accurate, just the German "U" is like the "oo" in "doom". 🙂 and the V at the start of a word is mostly pronounced as "f", with some exceptions.
Von Jungingen is even an awkward pronouniation for german speakers, so yours is as good as any.
Why they called Hrolf "the Ganger" instead of "the Walker" is above me though. In the original german translation they called him "Rollo der Gänger", which would be correct – even though he definitely wasn't german.
Interesting tidbit: He was maybe called that as he wasn't able to ride. He was just to big for any horse to carry him.
I told the kid I was that William wallace is still among the best units and that Genghis Khan still rules and he's happy.
Fun fact: There was a disc you could buy/get, where you could play extra campaigns. This was when the original conqueror's edition was released. There was also a Robin Hood campaign you could play. But I can't find anything about this disc anywhere, and it doesn't work anymore either. Does anyone remember it?
little john is not on the worse list but Abraha elephant is on best list
Before Hidden Cup 4, T90 set up a "tournament" between the different heroes participating in the event, and Admiral Yi took down a Cobra Car one on one. Definitely think you're underrating the Admiral here.
@0:20 waldo is a hero in my book too 11
i have waited so long for this!
La Hire is SSS+ tier
The pronounciation of Ulrich was pretty decent
I would like add the non Hero Jaguar Warrior you get in Aztec Camping with more HP 😀
Abraha Elephant shows up in HD at least for the Indian Campaign, which was totally revamped. I remember that at some point you have to fight this unit. Indian (now Hindustanis) campaign was pretty wild on HD version.
The Great Khan deserves to be #1 on this list. I once played the first Genghis Khan campaign where I switched his diplomacy to enemy right after he gave his speech and made the four scout cavalry and horse archers playable. I tried to hunt him down and murder him, but despite being outnumber he still managed to wipe my guys out.
4:19 Is that his actual icon though? Because on wiki and in my game Tsar Constantin shows up having a regular looking chariot icon.
Anyways, nice video as always, SoTL.
Have you ever covered Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds? It's AoE2 but in the SW universe. Bit niche, but pretty cool!
Stop being so good SOTL!❤
00:24 top right.
I think "la Hire" should be included in the honorable mentions 😜
You men! You will visit each of the Best Hero entries. You must convince as many as you can to join our glorious Top 10. But…beware of the Worst Heroes. They are without desirability.
Hey SOTL, can you do a video about why the Men At Arms are so Under Power? I have watch the semi of the GrandMele and the last game of Lierrey-Viper shows why you cannot play Men At Arms.
Wally!!!!!
It is a good day for La Hire to NOT BE INCLUDED IN THIS LIST HOW DARE YOU
T90 HC5 confirmed?
