Can 8 Peasants defeat 300 ORCS? - Warcraft 2 FIGHT CLUB 

I love how an ogre's first instinct on seeing a sheep is to punch it, completely forgetting that it used to be his buddy.

The grunts won the battle, but the builders won my heart.

That peasant fight was very clever.

peasants vs orcs was amazing and so pleasant to watch

pyrrhic victories for the Alliance and the Grunts. I about died when the peasants executed their game plan lol

The last fight made me realize that the sound of 30+ elven archers is a hypnotic, almost soothing white-noise. Instead of listening to rain to sleep, I need a rain of arrows.

Warcraft 1 and 2 were the first RTS games I ever played. Love the SFX from these games so much. Please keep up with the awesome videos!

I've been fiending for a new Stu video! Thanks Mr. Pid, and keep up the great work!

Your army vs. base scenarios are always fun to watch.

Dude this video was outstanding! The peasants match was inventive and that gigantic battle at the end was incredible. More please!!!

Maybe if the peasants had just 2500 more resources it woulda worked out, but I’m honestly unsurprised lol

"Can you predict the winner of each fight?" I've never played this game in my life and didn't even know it existed until I saw your video about it a few months ago

The peasants should have won after all that work. Great fights

death and decay sure sounds suspiciously like sizzling bacon

Awesome!!! Another WC2 Fight Club! The 8 Peasant Tower Defense against the Grunts was TRULY AMUSING! Haha! The Final War Battle was so Epic! Alliance Armies destroying the Horde Base same as like The Last Alliance VS. The Armies of Sauron in Mordor in LOTR!!! Mages VS. Ogres was predictable and expected.

lol at the last one. I was thinking Horde had this in the bag, then it panned over to all of those demo squads; then I was like nope they're screwed. XD

Warcraft 2 in 2023? I am so down for this! Brings back so many memories of childhood.

I never really had fun with RTS games, but watching this teleported me back to the 90s and suddenly made me realize all of the hype around the OG warcraft & starcraft series.

the reason THE HORDE lost that last fight was fkn Gul'dan ruined everything!

The DK also used their default attack against the ballistae at the end of the fight, I'm not sure if that was intended. Not using it would not have changed the outcome of the battle anyway, just wanted to mention this.

Those quirky fights were quite enjoyable to watch. Thanks for making these, Stu!

based off of the thumbnail saying it was ONLY 8 Peasants I was thinking "...that's not much of a fight" and then the video happened and it was beautiful. were the Peasants player-controlled or was it AI?

i cant believe that something like this can be a content and i watched that till the end lol

That was hilarious!!! I forgot that the peasants could barricade themselves. For a while there, I thought they might even win!

I suppose if Peasants didn't ran out of resources, they might have won. 🤔🤔🤔

cackled at peasant fight

Great video as always

Those peasants would clearly be the type to have epic songs written about their defeat.

Great video, long time no see, friend, glad to meet again. I see that you improve your ideas, the last siege of the base leads us to some sort of hostorical fights and wars and i think its pretty good.

I remember back in the day i used to play this game every day trying to finish its unimaginable hard campaigns , good times..

Given enough time and resources, a Peasant (or peon) can overcome any obstacle. Truly the most dangerous soldier of second great war.

One more Peasant and maybe 1000 Gold + 500 Wood more, They would win.

For the Ogre vs Mage fight, I would think Fireballs would have worked.

For the peasants/grunts fight, I wonder if the peasants would have done better if they'd built guard towers instead of cannon towers, since guard towers upgrade faster and fire faster, so they would have thinned out the grunts sooner before they cleared the row of town halls. Guard towers are also cheaper, so the peasants would have had more money for repairs at the end. The only advantages the cannon towers have here are the splash damage, and I guess having slightly higher hp, and I don't think that gives them enough benefit in this fight. I could be wrong in this case; I've just long felt that guard towers are vastly superior to cannon towers in this game.

0:19 i love how the ogree quote fits here perfectly like a sock.

I wasn’t surprised by the mage vs ogre one. I was five or six when I first played this game so I always used cheats. The infinite mana cheat also gave infinite mana to the computer and I remember one level where I had to funnel my army through a choke point to get to the alliance base there was a group of mages who turned everything I sent at them into sheep. 😅

oh my god, someone else who still cares about warcraft 2.. i thought it vanished from everyones memory in the late 90s.

The ballistas vs DKs one is the best, the wave of explosions is so cool

that was 32 orcs per peasant

Run, run speedrun.

the peasants vs grunts reminds me of one of the premade maps that is literally a peasant surrounded by an orc army.

Predictions Fight 1: Mages Fight 2: grunts Fight 3: Death knights Fight 4: Alliance

Hell just discovered this diamond series please do more warcraft 2 fight club!!! BIG TIME HUGE LOVE

Battle's not over and several of the Alliance soldiers peel off to slaughter the peons.

The peasants vs orcs is a textbook example of a war of attrition.

This is weirder than my crazy dreams... And that's a lot to top.

Wow seeing Warcraft II again makes me so happy and nostalgic

I was so sad about how it turned out for the peasants, but they put up a good fight!

Those ballistas never stood a chance. Human controlled might be a different story. Also, the demo squads in the last sequence were almost useless, just damage sponges.

The death night/balista one was super satisfying to watch!

these fights are utterly ridiculous and I love it

Very nice.

Idk if you realize how crazy 53k views/ 2 weeks for such an old game is. Congratz ! Amazing video, but you already know about this.

Still waiting for the day when I can predict the winner of each fight😔

Imagine what a few well places Blizzards could have done to those packed ogres.

i think if pesant would build in the corner they would have better outcome

Man.... Warcraft 2 is chef's kiss.

Alliance had a huge numbers advantage on the last battle.

I wonder if the peasants should have trained an extra peasant or two from the town halls before they fell, with the resources they had. They would have run out of resources sooner, but the cannon tower might have gotten more good shots off before the town halls fell. After they fall, they try to shoot the closest units and deal little damage to them.

Accurate summary of the first half of the second war

When LOTV speedrun 100%?

9:30 - And what did we learn from the last skirmish? Taking the Eagles to Mordor doesn't work. But taking the Eagles plus the allied army to Mordor DOES work.

another great vid mate loved it cant wait for the next one

I can see why polymorph and exorcism as well death coil being so OP in this game to the point it is being nerfed and completely removed the exorcism from the third game.

1st fight : 200 mages vs 250 ogres , before watch , i bet 200 mages win , i go watch now , ok i see i won , now next 2 nd fight : i dont bet because i didnt understand whats going on here , hehe , now after watch i got it , maybe interesting if peasants had infinite money 3 rd fight : i bet for ballistas , ok i lose 4 th : i go for humans , btw this fight is just op , thx for it , and i win again

This is not Warcraft 2. This is Warcraft 2000 nuclear epidemic. I love this game.

Next fight: 300 Goblin Sappers vs 300 Dwarven Demo Squads

when 2 peasants could decide the outcome of the battle

Спасибо большое автор, с удовольствием смотрю ваши ролики о WarCraft2, бойцовский клуб.

Wow! The death knight vs ballista battle was close!!!

I saw that thumbnail and thought “Why is the GLA invading Azeroth?”

An experiment proposal. I'd like to see identical armies fight each other, but you organize the waves opposite of one another. One army has least expensive units in the Frontline and most expensive in the back, other army has most expensive up front and least expensive in the back. I wanna know which is better strategy

I wish there was a real life thing, like Mythbusters - can you destroy a townhall by hacking it with an axe?

How do you make those armies scenarios? They are very nice and detailed, not just some buildings and units slapped together.

Watching this in 2x is so satisfying

Ogres are my favorite unit from the horde Too bad in warcraft 3 they were swapped out for the tauren

Man, I was so pulling for the peasants.

"I'm gonna keep moving right into the death and decay field-that's a winning tactic!" Balista commander who led 500 balista to thier death...and decay. I wish I could show an old High School friend that last fight since his primary WC2 strategy was "surround base with guard towers." That peasant fight, though.

Well that music is taking me back...

Darn it, I only got 2/4 right, great vid though, I always enjoy these :D

Great ideas and battles!!

I still bet on the orcs to win but the peasants certainly had me sweating and reconsidering my vote.

See, the only reason the alliance won at the end was because the orcs didn't use the strategy, they spent money on grunts and trolls, money that could be used on more ogre magi. Towers are good to use against fliers, but the one strategy in WC2 is called Ogre Magi.

The Mages created a wall of sheep!

Best one yet!

A last alliance of men and dwarves

Dude, you deserve a medal for this lol

Ahhhh, nostalgic sounds :)

I wonder if the peasants would have had better chances if they backed away into a corner.

every unit used at best, i like it

The sheep were bodyblocking the ogres so they had trouble getting into melee range.

this is what blizzard wishes there lore was

no sheep where harmed in this video

Those are really nice to watch. Is this series based on the cutscenes from the game that would show the AI fighting each other? Cause I have to say they really look inspired by that.

It ain't much, but it's honest work.

Warcraft memang GAME YANG SERU❤

Balancing was not as giod as usual. Especially the final battle. But all in all nice vids!! More!!

I think the ogres actual have the highest kill count here, if you count the sheep.

I was: wrong on round 1 right on round 2 (picked winning side just for the memes, so not right for the proper reasons) wrong on round 3 wrong on round 4! The big upset imo

Things we did while waiting for dial up to connect.
