Sir_Musket vs SirCallen // Best of 21 // Battle of the Sirs

[site]

Two knights meet in a series unprecedented in length and in salt. Hailing from down south, Master of the Thuggees, Magistrate of the Manchurias, the troll to end all trolls, the one and only @sirmusket

. Hailing from the West, British knowitall, the true MusketeerMicroKing, the one and only @sircallen

. Perhaps we will see a one-sided series, 11-0, or perhaps we will see the closest series ever seen, culminated in a grudge match to end all grudge matches. Stay tuned, and stay on the edges of your seats!

All games will be livestreamed by myself at https://www.twitch.tv/esocsite where you can find the highlighted videos, have their recs posted on this topic, and as time permits be edited and put on Youtube.

Only one rec saved: Azzy vs Ger. Check out the casted VOD here though: https://www.twitch.tv/esocsite/v/107160463 I highly recommend watching. Here are my thoughts on each game...

Game 1 (brit mirror): Needed to delete more vills. Honestly this was too easy.

Game 2 (russia vs china): If I ship CM I win the game; didn't have it in deck. I knew he was going to disciple rush but fucked up the timing in my head and he fb'd before I gathered coin for MM. Also If I had used villagers to finish off low xp units, used my TC fire smarter, and called mm earlier inside the wall triangle I had built (before 8 choks came) I still would have been fine. The build wasn't even that troll. Musket claimed I did this build because I knew I would lose otherwise and it was a means to save face. Indeed; the 9/10 disciple rush is something I'm being very adamant in the EP team to nerf. The rush, hitting an entire 5 whole seconds before a 17/20 disciple rush, is just too good. Too many units too quickly and a powerful eco to support it behind it all. I mean, he could just 700f/700g and age up np gg! Throughout this entire series I'd say my opponent was fiercely in my head.

Game 3 (azzy vs ger): Musket actually knew I would pick Azzy before I actually picked Azzy so suffice to say he must have had a specific counter prepared. Upon aging, I was 5 seconds off from my warhut placement so I couldnt send skull knights there. Oh well, no biggie. Musket had a nice mm + xbow pop but 1 skull knight still took out like half hp on all those xbows. I could have put xplorer in cover mode during this that would have helped. Never even done this rush before but nonetheless I felt very confident. I was quite mis-macro'd at some points due to a lack of herding and marching vills cross map to gather under my fb safely so I wouldn't lose by getting raided (only way I could lose in that situation)

I'm actually hard at work conceptualizing new builds for the future which I hope the masses find just as entertaining. I'm normally a basic standard player with one civ so this should be fun.

Which game is which? I'd assume one can match them to each other, but I'd be nicer if you named them properly
Why RE? :O
Callen = Aztecs = mind = blown

[deleted_user]

I renamed them, didn't I? With MUs and stuff. Also I've tinkered with Azzy before, not a bad civ.

Game 1: If i didn't push with 16 musk, I'd be fine, really you had 8 huss
Game 2: lol, you wouldnt be fine with CM , I'd just go back ship 700f/700c cuz i had 2 TP and age to 3 and comeback later and kill MM and idle you all game
Game 3: I lost to a 10/10 puma rush, yet i held with bow/mm i dont know what the fuck I did after that seeing I was in a winning position, either way Im glad I knocked out callens top 2 civs with using my shit ones, besides Ger, which was also shit today
