Time is elo (axiom) - more smurfs means more opportunities to gain elo, essentially creating more time. We must be ready to accept this as a good thing

Springalds overperforming and being used as all-round unit (rather than for anti-siege primarily) was mentioned during their post-launch dev stream, so I wouldn't be surprised if they're nerfed in the winter update.

Yea that's pretty dumb. It's like how building foundations deleted herds in aoe3, except it was never really exploited much:https://www.twitch.tv/aiz11/clip/Tangib ... KappaClaus

Yes, they were nerfed and Inca buffed which is now the new brooken civ. There's however barely any players left to lame them, since the majority either quit long ago or moved onto Aoe 4

Mitoe is an incredibly talented player and one of the most consistent (if the not the most) if we look at the duration he's been as good as he's been. and honestly to call it "bm" is a bit of a stretch, I think it's perfectly legitimate to say that you played bad if you didn't win the gam...

Tough matchup on ladder vs a player 10 pr higher :hehe: Luckily mitoe showed us yesterday that he's vulnerable to the 7 Steppe riders shipment. Was the british player missing hunts or did he just not herd? Is 7 steppe just a too overpowered shipment, maybe nerf to 5-6? Comment/Praise/Flame below :fl...

Probably around the time a new brooken civ gets released

Top live streams panel out of order for like a week, imo one of the more useful features on ESOC. Any chance to get it running again? Maybe with a split function for aoe3 / aoe 4

we're getting OOS trying to play with aiz mod, so will have to go without it

Realized i have to endure 4h of WoW raids tomorrow so we agreed to postpone the series 1h. In case you care or would ask @Cometk

lol @GiBthedurrty

lolz, if you actually played right now you'd prob be hardstuck 1800 elo and complaining more than anyone considering that you cried quite frequently over too strong civs on EP where balance was like 10x better
