Why Would You Play Knights Against Bolas? | 1v1 Arabian Desert

TheViper plays the new Mapuche against Huns in a 1v1 ranked game on Arabian Desert: one Town Center, a spear-skirmisher opening, then up to Castle Age for Bolas. The opponent drushes, both sides end up in a skirmisher mirror where the Mapuche extra-HP skirms do a lot of the work, while Viper deals with lag ("No second house because lag"), overlapping settlement hotkeys ("I have to play like Tim"), a quick-wall gone wrong and a market misclick. Also: his verdict on Bolas after the nerf, a "who am I playing against?" moment, Ronaldo and Portugal, and whether he'll ever return to the old graphics ("Nope"). 0:00 Lag Again 6:19 It's A Drush 9:36 Skirm Mirror 14:37 Make Bolas 18:19 Even After The Nerf Live Stream also on @   / theviper   AoE2 Channel:    / theviperaoe   TheViper Merch ► https://teespring.com/stores/theviper Donate ► https://theviper.live/ Discord ►  / discord   Twitter ►   / theviperaoe   Instagram ►  / theviperaoe   Business Inquiries: theviper@valianttalent.com
