The Meta | #8 | Britons Longbowmen 

"Fight me like a man!" Viper says while garrisoning 100 longbows into his castle

Victim: "Just wanted a chill game before lunch" Viper: "Yeah me to" Viper:

This is like my childhood aoe dream, a pro player with MASS longbows

Everyone: "Oh no, my villagers are dying" The Viper: "YES. Kill them all please, I need more space for longbow men"

Viper: I can not trol this game. My opponent is quite strong (respect) Also Viper: *Trols anyways* *_(DISRESPECC)_*

"Ich bin ein Pleb, jetzt!" - Beautiful.

Love the longbows. I like the comfort of fighting the opponent from halfway across the map.

Mass longbow vs french knights back and forth action. Now THIS is the aoe2 I grew up on and love :)

The reason viper doesn't like that some techs like warwolf are more expensive is he often won't get to use them because he will have already have killed his opponent. Hard life.

Looks like Sitaux got to enjoy the classic Joan of Arc experience.

Straight drushing your opponents TC, damn viper that's slick.

30:13 BATTLE OF AGINCOURT, COLOURIZED

"There is no counter to 150 Longbows" Lol.

"but in theory, our economy is not the greatest" *sits at 15 villagers* never change, viper xD

20:21 Typical Biper when he loses his units, I was housed so I had to that... LMAO

30:13 *Seeing 150 longbow men in formation* IS THIS AOE OR TOTAL WAR

40:17 those panic villagers lol

Those vills being microed reminded me of the dancers in the "Thriller" video w/Micheal Jackson...lol

34:06 takes a break while his long bowmen take down a castle

"We'll see how French Knights fare against British Longbows!"

I have always remembered his line: "There is no counter to 150 longbows"

viper was not destroying the enemies monastery so his enemy would have gold income and try to fight him

Viper: Our arrows will blot out the sun! Sitaux: Then we will fight in the- OH SHIT!!!

In this episode of "The Meta" Viper and his opponent, Sitaux, reenact the battle at Agincourt!

That guy tried soooo hard to hold it together while viper just memed on him hahahahaha

I can hear Donnie shouting: "Loom Viper!" xD

Viper at the end of a mastapiece game or any game really can you give your opinion on what your opponent should have done to counter? Don't have to go in full detail but kind of like you did at the end of the all scout video.

The Internet: How many longbowmen do you want? Silver medal player: Yes!

26:42 TheViper became Thanos

60 fully upgraded elite longbows with a handful of pikes to protect from paladin charges is death incarnate.

"AoE DE is not logic" Just melted down a stone castle with arrows

Viper: *moves mouse* Cursor: "I am Speed"

This looks like how I played vs the AI when I was a kid. Only it took me 3 times longer to mass that army.

Interesting watching the Old Vipa, watching the newer videos I think he's improved quite a bit.

The mighty Paladins of old, running away from some tall bois with long sticks with strings 11

Is this the battle of Agincourt? English longbows destroying French knights

Another glorious loss for France!

Viper uses those longbowmen like it's 1999 Age of Kings days

just restarted playing aoe2 again after many many years, thanks for the educationals, it really helped coming back to this great game :) also, community seems to be pretty cool

"There is no counter to 150 longbow" 40:20 *Sitaux proceeds to counter with Paladins + Villager Rave*

this is basically an accurate recreation of the reason of the battle of the battle of Agincourt.

They added the animation delay to buildings collapsing specifically to prevent micro abuse from breaking the game in ways that are unfair to players who haven't hit 124958678 apm yet

Saracen's team bonus would be nice here

I am having siege on Paris flashbacks.

I will always remember now until the day I die, that there is no counter to 150 longbows.

The opponent was so bad

That was one very chill game,like opponent said,LOL.

That was glorious... Gowron would be proud.

''Eddie said you don't need villagers to win.'' The man spoke, it gets proven time and time again.

Being raided by an emeny? Looks like it's best moment to spend some time setting camera view for youtube thumbnail.

30:12 the battle of Agincourt

RU-vid awards you: SILVER play button

Kudos to the franks guy who actually put up a decent fight

30:31 our arrows blot out the sun

"'Counters'?! There IS no counter to one-hundred-and-fifty longbows!" "'Onagers'?! I got three more range than onagers!" "'What if he comes close'? What IF he comes close?! He loses half his army on his way to get there!"

Haha this is Agincourt all over again for the French XD

anyone notice arrows no longer stick in the ground in de. when i was little i loved the arrows lookin like they stuck in corpses during battles. and also loved how theyd degrade. aoe 2 norished my dream of becoming a bow maker in general. drunk male villager - “ MANDAugTiM!??” does anyone lol when he clicks a million time and his units spam phrases?

gross to see cav losing to bows in Melee

What a spectacular sight. Longbows.

viper can i ask u why u put villager inside of lumber camp between trees is it because its one villager safe? or is it effective?

it's like Guerre de 100 ans , French Knight who charge british Longbowmen

in the description, you say what the English do best. But what a lot of people don't know is that the Britons are not the English, the English/Anglo-Saxons invaded Britain. The Britons are mostly the modern-day welsh.

that villager dance in the end XD

A frenchmans cavalry shot to pieces by english longbowman.... im not sure but i think i have heard about something like this already ;D

TheViper just did the Joan of Arc Campaign Gets into a Briton vs. Franks situation

26:49 isnt it better to send the villagers to attack in a suicide wave?, they could destroy some buildings, maybe even a castle with so many of them.

Jesus dude, you started building fast af. I would barely started gather sheep lmao

Came to the comment section for hundred years war references, not disappointed

The Hundred Years' War, Viper shows his V finger(Britons) to French at last, LOL.

My friend always pick Eng, and he always rush for Long Bowman while walling him self and I don't know how to win him when he burst out with 30++ long bow...

150 longbows walk into a bar - there is no counter

Are u using default keybindings like at the. Beginning it seemed like u hit a key to select ur workers rather then clicking or click drag "box select" them mind u I'm on a shitty small phone so correct me if I'm wrong but what key is it to do that aswell as when u were getting hit by his scout what key did u hit to cancel/demo buildings in construction i always thought i had to select the building/farm/wall etc then click the picture/portrait for it to cancel/demo I just started to play again I barely bought the game I used to play it back in the day along with command and conquer and Starcraft 1 and or brood war if it was even out at that time but if possible please let me know or even can point me or guide me to a video that shows you all of the hotkeys or bindings tips or tricks whatever you want to call them please and thank youyou're lucky you're not having any issues ever since the update on Monday I haven't been able to even play one multiplayer game it kicks me soon as it starts and I'm able to select my villagers and either it freezes right there and then or I can possibly start the construction on the two houses and then freezes and then says Forest close or wait until it responds which if you wait till it responds it still ends up crashing completely out anyways

Lmao, sjukt at han ikkje resigna før lol, was noicegeim

I'm new to vipers crowd. What's with the occasional german?

Viper's units keep shouting, "Tatoh! Tatoh!". Clearly they are biased.

Forgotten campaigns remade from scratch? Does that includes the maps? So much work put on esthetic things vanished

Question: is the pathing in DE different from HD or original? I'm asking because I'm curious if they improved it. The pathing in original and HD was not amazing, bad pathing is a big turnoff for me in strategy games (that's why I can't bring myself to replay Starcraft 1).

I kinda always start with 3 houses because i keep forget building new ones :/

Im new and learning the game. I chose Britons as my civ to learn with. Can a competent player win consistently using Britons 100% of the time?

6:30 loom viper!

I find it funny there's a confirmation box on deleting villagers in a real time strategy game :D What's next, a CAPTCHA if you try to delete a castle?

10:21 SHE ATTACKS YOU 11 GG VIPER

how do you zoom out so far?!? I can‘t do even half the size

Really enjoyed this game.

big brain moves, don't need to defend your eco if you have no eco XD

How did you get those neat graphics? Game looks way different than mine, I like it

40:18 this is a war crime

How are you supposed to fight longbows if onagers get outranged? skirms?

what would you do if your opponent is spamming skirms, or you are up against goths?

How to build a building on top of others basically deleting them in the process?

The dream of all kids lolololoolololo longbowman attacks the castle!!

I mean if longbows got obsidian arrows, you wouldn't even need trebs xD

I love it when you talk german!

"There is no counter to 150 Longbows". Me: laughs in Gothic.

Historically accurate

@30:29 Reminds me of Agincourt

Viper has the Briton villager “chopper” sound as a text alert. Probably.

There is no counter to 150 longbows? How about 160 longbows? Or 150 paladin?

I’d like to see them buff longbows. Like, make them super expensive, but give them every possible upgrade. And about 8 extra range.

This might be a dumb question, but why not throw in some pikemen to defend the longbowmen?
