The Smallest Slopes Ever!

all right ladies and gents welcome to the smallest slopes ever slopes a hidden cup map hidden cup five on the horizon very close and uh I did see a screenshot of this a week or two ago and I think it looks freaking adorable dude I think it looks amazing and these guys they're here for war and so they are going to try and steal resources from each other ozone has wandered over to the enemy side and is already stealing a boar and matador didn't know he had a boar over there cuz he went forward to steal sheep and he just saw the boar run past so I'm pretty sure he's thinking oh that's interesting oh this could be huge actually ooh ooh Scout is weak uh okay this could be a double lame this could be an early GG maybe this could be really bad for ozone Mator has to do this while also taking this at the other side oh no oh no oh no we can understand it we can understand it but that was brutal villager dead over here and then the Eagle's dead now matz door is like it's fine I'm Mayans I start with an extra Ville anyways this is completely fine and just walks over again and it's going to bring in this board I mean at least there's that but holy cow that was brutal not the first time we've seen players try and do so much at the start of these games and then struggle on these small Maps so it does show they're human which is nice um so Scout's still alive for ozone which can help with a bit of vision like maybe he will eventually find these sheep that are currently hiding in the corner you're not so hidden when you're hiding on a tiny map though it's much easier to find you uh the Scout can push in some deer which we're currently seeing and that can help for food underneath the TC uh ozone as well can he's moved over here to chop wood while we have Matador chopping wood on the other side now cives uh Mayan start with the extra Ville like I said they cannot make things like Scouts but they're very good with archers and we've seen very cheap Archer uh sorry we we haven't seen cheap archers but we've seen archers be very strong so I like that I also think that the Mayans with since they research Loom instantly can do things like this uh sorry they don't research it instantly but you're always getting it at the start and so this could just be annoying uh could have led to some Bill kills potentially but ozone quick walled it and ozone's going to get loom and now Matador has to be careful because now that the villagers are are the same strength and there's more of them from ozone this could be a problem the Sheep they escaped what happened to the Sheep did the Sheep guys did the Sheep go home already I think they must have so slopes is all about uh options on the sides and so Matador tried to make it awkward to take the resources here I think the Sheep probably went home oh you know what's funny so I don't think the poles can actually fit a FW workk up here every other C has a mill which is 2x two tiles which you could fit here but poles have that giant full workor full works are probably awful for this map you could fit it here but you are not going to get farms around FKS very easily with how tiny this map is yeah see this this Mill is actually oh this Mill is amazing perfect it's nice and snug also look at all these sheep 11 sheep for Matador Whoa man there goes the full workk now and matador I think his position is pretty strong obviously losing the the resources early hurt losing the eagle but this is fine scouted this area already sees the deer moving and is just going to shoot him down that way they can't be pushed just making it more Awkward for his opponent there goes ozone on the way to the feud AG you cannot wall on the Rock terrain so quick Walling your way out of a problem there could be really difficult which we're seeing here be problem here for Matador Matador is bringing another vill but I don't know if this vill will want to be here and matador actually used her to body block and create some space very small map but very quick up times and we see a low ELO mining camp for ozone will it be stone or will it be gold or will it be both for the Colombian looks like he's going to go for a tower Rush which in a normal game would make sense when it's this tiny but again we the towers are customized so the towers have half the range ozone's maybe going to think though a tower is a tower and it could still work I mean polish villagers do regenerate starting in Feud AG so in a a villager war with the poles is actually really solid did end up killing a villager so all the weak vills will slowly heal up with the PO soon oh man it is a boxing match we picked a good time to add the boxing emote to the channel love that emote okay well here I am trying to break this day this game down for you and I have no clue what to say villager's dead though so there's that uh house gets blocked that's fun more boxing happening now again poles should be stronger in the long run in these instances lot of bumpit there was a comment between what some of the other games where uh Matador said that he felt like villagers didn't path consistently I I don't know exactly maybe he was just a little annoyed he he lost two games in a row so maybe it was part of that he has lost two games in a row again last time that happened he won two straight so far there haven't been any Towers up right cuz it's just been V fighting normally producing villagers consistently in these instances is really strong look at Matador building Palisades on the F Works where the Farms would go that's really funny but he lost another bill he's lost five units in this game five Eco units h i mean Matador pulled uh sorry ozone pulled a lot of vills so couldn't always create them consistently but did also kill a lot we have a Barracks for mat door which I believe means he is planning on trying to go for Archers his wood Eco though is now pretty brutal he's just chopping the wood towards the middle now I don't think these towers are in range of each other and we could actually see Matador go Rush this down if you wanted to remember it's three R three and a half range on a tower so this is not walled in this can't be walled in neither can this actually so yeah for now it seems like Matador is just going to let the towers go up because they're not actually doing anything and now we have ozone building more Towers over here I think like isn't ozone completely screwed without defensive Towers if Matador can just chill and bring in archers to the other areas like if he could H archers here and here for example this is really fascinating again I really don't think these towers are in range of each each other Matador is attacking the the wrong Tower though I think what you want to be focusing on is you want to be focusing on the towers where the villagers are not easier said than done but like this you start with this tower for example oh my God ozone's coming to the middle for more see once you get like three archers the villagers really start to go down fast for the enemy so this is that still dangerous for ozone I know it doesn't feel like it right now but we've seen so many instances where the lack of range on these towers with the option we've chosen here is a big problem and the tower goes down uh traffic jam people people people one after the other take your time archers take priority they are military they have weapons this is stupid this is stupid this just Pro Age of Empires here Pro Age of Empires here and here and here and here The Archers are on the loose these towers are now being attacked these archers are trying to go somewhere where there isn't a tower but best of luck to you what is this chaos what is this chaos villagers are still going down like ozone still hasn't lost the Villager and he's killed so many he's done a really nice job those archers need to stay out of the power range which they can't do if they want to go in and kill the villagers right now um uh that Archer's been found and trapped and punched to death by villagers but here there's still archers and power [Music] down guys at what point does ozone run out of stone like he's repaired so much and build so many Towers this is stupid how is Ozone not lost ozone's killed so many bills oh my God it's still even too which is the funny thing this Tower is awkward but hey I mean Matador is making progress now unfortunately for him his archers have have ventured in too close to the towers again ozone is m like a maniac with his vills now there is an Archer here which he has to deal with that's kind of what I was thinking you get the archers here and not you don't use the archers against the towers just yet so easy to of course be distracted and then lose an Archer just like that he's down the two archers now um and then and then you look away and then your Archer goes down there vills are genuinely working and the regen is pretty fast on these vills oh my goodness dude this is crazy I think Matador might not have enough here guys I think he might I mean he still can't push he can't take resources consistently on these sides and his vills are probably all super weak right now so I think if you're going to do anything I think you need to send more right this is where I think you have to go with like 15 vills to one side instead of you know five or six maybe a little bit more commitment but then that could lead to more losses and man ozone has really done a nice job I have to say again beautiful repairing Matador is probably just waiting for these towers to go down and they never do Fletching now for Matador he has three archers one is in a TC one is being microed here and I I the other one must have died I I don't know where the other one is Ozone is also out of stone he could take Stone over here if you thought towers and if you think towers are strong right now guys imagine what they would have done with normal balance had we not adjusted the towers yeah matador's just completely overwhelmed it's been a long series like I said players have said that this makes their brain turn to mash potatoes when they play these settings and I think fullon vill rushing and uh and Tower rushing is more of a mash mashed potato type of Strat to be honest with you I'm still not sure it's going to work power is still being attacked Fletching is in Fletching will help the tower that Matador has massively Matador is micing with archers now I love how the full full work could fit here which is hilarious cuz we commented on how full Works couldn't usually fit yeah and now Matador could just take the resources at ozone's base this freaking Tower is still not down though my goodness yeah so now that you have Fletching you can realistically deny so many Resources with these archers if you're Matador and you don't have to run far for your archers to be where they're needed like here this is what what I mean boom boom boom it should be a dead vill and it should be more dead vills because of these archers and at what point do you just run out of food and you can't make more vills and you can't make Farms because your poles oh you can make Farms but they won't be around full works this food is actually so so important right now at what point does Matador run out of wood like does he Lumber Camp the middle oh archers into the wood line matador's held on matador's held on and this no Army approach from ozone it's not working anymore this is the point in the game we were waiting for he's dropping a market now to try and buy and sell some resources and balance things out as he's got vills on the right side of matador's Base Bill's on the left side of matador's base and then villagers stuck at home and in Towers now I wonder if started some of these towers start to get battered down uh still not enough Bill commitment oh God oh not the archers not The Archers not The Archers I'm very afraid and I don't know the exact range of the towers they might not be able to range that side and matador he he senses There's an opportunity here so he's just yoloing for it himself and he will take that Tower down really good Archer control here from Matador these archers are clutch he's losing his own vills which is not great but he's also of killing vills they've lost similar amounts of villagers over the last couple minutes oh this is so funny and the towers stay up Towers stay up villagers have to run home though they run directly into more Archer bolts and to remember TC range is affected as well right so this TC cannot range those archers It Feels So unnatural doesn't it okay so I think maybe at this point you just buy your way to Castle for bod canero or Siege and like it feels weird to say do vills even matter at this point CU they obviously do matter but because they've lost so many I wonder if it's best to just wait for Castle AG feels like every other time players wait till Castle AG they're screwed though I think a big thing here from Matador is he cannot be allowing his opponent to take gold this needs to be denied at least like force ozone into a tower there and and he just he just can't cont he cannot go there with so few vills oh oh nice play though do you see that little whoop into the tower and out every time I look at ozone's vills though they're fresh again which is so uncommon Matador maybe has his Rally Point from his TC set to that Tower oh Tower is going up from ozone he knew his gold was going to be vulnerable but the archers are here will he get this Tower up to defend the gold does the tower even defend the gold I think that the archers could actually sit over here it's not a spot you want to sit if you're uh Elm Matador but it honestly could sit underneath the tower as well Peak Age of Empires my friends look at these villagers go drop off wood right now that Lumber Camp needs to be deleted this is hilarious oh he's going he's going The Archers are on the way he's going yet again Matador will definitely lose villagers here he's lost so many before we have to repair us from ozone this is complete chaos The Archers are coming in ozone's in and out of his Towers he will lose that one will he lose this one oh God the archers have gone down I'm worried there might be more coming though I can't quite tell I don't know where they are I don't know what has happened happening I know the archers here have died though but the tower is going down and this tower has no villagers in it and matador has somehow as he micros that Archer has somehow found some room to breathe now I would immediately drop my own Tower here so I had some form of Defense oh The Archers were over here that was a sick find they both have lost so many bills like like 50 bills have gone down in this game and it's not over because we've seen maps with these settings before I think Matador realized ozone's not paying attention here though and it's just taking a risk and it's paying off and now he's been spotted I think if this Tower goes down uh yeah if this Tower goes down then mat is going to be feeling really good maybe I don't know welcome to the smallest slopes ever these games have been insane and like I debated bringing in people who are kind of like mid rank for this and I do think with more small Maps we'll do mid- ranks as well but these games have been wildly competitive at times I mean one of them was only 3 and a half minutes but but still it is really interesting to see what happens when you put really highle players in here I'm still concerned for matador's V HP like the Polish healing is huge if there's any attack here those vills are a sneeze away from death and actually ozon's making his own archers but he's over here right now and matador sees him Matador found him Matador sees the archers too nice micro there from ozone actually really nice micro Matador needs some defensive towers of his own here these archers are not making it out alive they will be killed by the bills he's going to try his best to take the archers but he gets found Archer counts similar double range for ozone Bill count is even somehow there's wood available for both there's gold available for both and now Matador drops a tower which he obviously needs ozone is let's see access to resources here so he's got um 1,400 Golds Matador has 300 gold that's a big deal but Matador can take this gold with a mining camp huh archers now if they leave the problem was sitting underneath the tower ozone's probably so annoyed with mattw micro right now that that's insane micro how has he not lost an Archer yet but the problem is if you run you just die to the tower anyways so it's like you're just stuck there let's let's zoom out let's double click the bills from Matador and look at the HP so 576 HP out of a possible 960 these villagers are half dead and a tower like this cuz vills are going to randomly go to these trees it's going to be really effective what a game into the tower saved castl needs to come in guys you got to you got to use cast here it can help you with Bodkin it can help you with crossbow this is an Archer and Tower War at this point I think ozone is going to try and Rush down this Tower which I think is really smart Mator will hop out now now I don't know what to what to say here ozone's Archer mic really good underneath that Tower but now Matador realizing the situation does Micro back as well he does lose his Tower though so now he's lost the front of his base ozone has more archers than him ozone runs into the TC loses two archers but we'll drop a tower now and so many times we've said this you make it de Castle you need the benefit you can't fit a Siege Workshop in any of the land you own if you're Matador that's not possible and you can't afford the crossbow upgrade or bod canero upgrade possibly this could be awful for El Matador and amazing for ozone and ozone this feels like this has happened if you watched all these games like every single game where Matador goes up to Castle and then ozone just has that that extra level of pressure look how weak these vills are oh God oh God oh God oh God it's happen happening it's happening oh it's happening more no Matador he can't take any resources guys he can't go anywhere matador's villagers could go to these farms and fight over which two people get to work and that's it I mean a Siege Workshop is the only thing that could bring him out of this but you might need to delete the Town Center to do it okay there we go um couple quick walls I'm sure Matador is hoping that these vills can still take wood without dying ozone seiz The Siege is now Deni oh God oh God okay this has become matador's life now in and out take your time in and out in and out in out in out in okay good and now sieg is on the way still maybe winnable and I'm not I'm not kidding I I think Siege should destroy the towers it should destroy the archers I'm not sure if it destroys the vills but that is to be seen remember like in a normal game the tower range would be too strong like this many Towers would be too strong for Siege here not necessarily the case boom Archer's dead now it is very likely that Matador will run out of gold to repair a Mangano at a crucial moment here I'm speaking from experience H Guys these bills are still somehow dropping off enough wood it's like where do you start though like what tower do you go after first I guess you go after this one double mang it out a triple third one's on the way guys this is winnable from Matador 100% C armor where's the stable even at OZO needs to stay feudal and go Scout he has three Farms I don't see a stable yet maybe it's no oh there it is okay Tower will go down two towers will be lost from Ozone now again a normal game you can expect it's going to be Scouts here um Matador is basically going to be praying that his opponent can't make Knights you're still expecting a stable but you can't really afford to do anything about it so the key here for ozone is to wait until you have enough Scouts where you can definitely Kill The Siege but this is a problem 13 villagers against 35 but all of these vills can die okay you know what you do when you go Scout an Archer rush you actually bring 10 of your vills you bring the vills into the fight that would be the Epic play here if you don't bring the vills it could be a problem if you bring the vills you're definitely killing all the siege sure you lose 10 to 15 vills but if your opponent can't make more oh man oh man it's so hidden away here it's so hidden behind this Boom Big Shot there okay they're the scouts so you're going to lose this one if you're uh Matador you have to not lose the others oh he knew he was going to lose that manganel he attack grounded his own manganel he actually could add some Spears now and maybe wait now you can't move out too far it's still a little risky does have gold he's booming now okay there's the Spears now they have their the the barracks next to the triple tow stag has to produce that but look at all these vills oh oh oh oh come on Matador what are you doing bro okay it's all right we we'll clip that out we'll clip that out we'll clip that out that's definitely not going to YouTube uh this villager is is being stupid and wants to go chop a tree it shouldn't TC for ozone could go down soon did you see how uncertain actually I don't mind a Counterattack idea quick wall nice wow sick oh well okay I like that idea from ozone a lot here because you you want to punish Matador for not having anything to defend but honestly at the same time you also very much need to defend your TC this is an amazing game that Walling in The Siege would be epic if he can get this full wall down OZO needs to come F OZO needs to come out here fast he needs to deal with this and he needs to come from three different angles or something because this he cannot allow The Siege to be walled in and this is what we said bring the vills bring the vills oh a big shot a big shot but there's just so much happening and matador can make more he has killed a lot here he kills even more which maybe makes you think there's hope the Mangan Els get pulled back to the TC there's no V there's a spear defend it Spearman oh my God oh God he's got more he only has four vills inside no the dream is dead Matador is a nine popop and it's 39 pop for ozone and ozone's just going to drop another Tower a risky Tower if there's going to be Siege holy what a crazy game and he drops the the Triple G because it wasn't just a good game it was a great good game GG honestly that was a master class from ozone like ozone Just Hits these hit this point in this game where he clearly understood how many vills he needed to repair with he understood where to task his Towers whether it was enemy villagers or enemy um enemy villagers or enemy archers and it was just consistent pressure all the time and even there like when Matador made it to Castle he was able to figure it out eventually that was really impressive I think for Matador it was really close like maybe if he kept an extra Archer or two alive things could have been a bit different for him I'm sure he's a bit exhausted now I'm being down 52 but he honestly played super well I loved how he he added the spears I love to see micro but he just didn't have the bills at this point it's like I think the regenerating of the Polish villagers was the biggest bonus here forget about the gold you get from mining stone forget about the full works and the Farms I actually think ozone's villagers regenerating helped him so much more that we can actually show because he was constantly attacking and and like fighting with villagers so crazy stuff very impressive stuff uh here's the uh the res collected I am curious on this obviously the player with more villagers is going to collect more still though it does feel like with how difficult it was for Matador the last 10 to 15 minutes that this is not as big a difference as you would have expected but um yeah Matador just couldn't quite keep the Army count up in some ways the towers are less punishing here than ever compared to other small Maps because of the adjustment we made but in other ways it's like it it it bait players into thinking Castle is going to make a difference and then they just they' lose so much I don't know it's like okay so how do I word what my what my brain is thinking right now okay so offensively towers are not as strong okay however and I think this has been the the thing is players are very used to dropping one defensive Tower to defend as they go up to Castle Ag and that's it players are not remembering that in defense the towers are not as strong and that is what has cost some players so far in these games so going forward with them is like it can still hold the map I guess and you're not counting on that to do everything for you so it's kind of okay if they're not as strong but when you're planning for a defensive one that's where it can get really tricky and that's what happened here for El Matador oh shoot I'm supposed to say hey guys everyone who watched this I don't and this is hitting YouTube actually this is most likely happening right around the time hidden cup 5 is going to be starting um main event of hidden cup February 25th through March 3rd we will see this map we will not see as many Towers I need you and I promise you will be entertained if you show up watch the YouTube live stream or the twitch live stream for the main event we also of course have videos but uh yeah this is a hidden cup map I kind of forgot about that because of all the death and destruction and Towers but uh what a game
