2 Pools Hype/Hope for New Civ Meta

wow, shout out to Lidakor! This tournament format is so unique and fun, and leads to such interesting high level games. I loved HC, but a lot of the map meta felt very similar series to series. I’m still catching up on the games from this weekend, but each game feels so different, and I’m seeing unit matchups I’ve never seen before. I’m also really hoping that some of the pros have planned out new potential BOs for Burgundians and Sicilians in the “bad” civ pool. I feel like no one has figured them out, and being forced to use them in a team game setting with a better civ to back up could produce actual good strategies. I think what makes two pools so unique is the potential for new metas with interesting civ combos/matchups. Anyway, I’m excited and I definitely recommend checking out Lidakor’s YouTube and twitch to watch the games, it’s really high quality AOE2
