The Golden League's winning teams and biggest moments
With the AoE Golden League competition underway, it is still early to make a call regarding who is the best in the competition. The event's ten weeks of grueling action will undoubtedly lead to one champion.
Age of Empires IV players and fans have enjoyed a rare spectacle over the tournaments' course. While some lesser-known players have been able to pull some 'unexpected wins' during the competition, some of the tournament's favorite has also been consistent.
As the tournament heads to a close on May 29, 2022, it is easy to point out some promising names from the leaderboard. Something about the best esports tournaments is that top performers are always consistent. This should be the guiding principle for any bettor keen on betting on eSport leagues or tournaments.
AoE IV biggest moments
The First Age of Empire's IV competition, Genesis Competition by Elite Gaming Channel, was held in 2021. The tournaments saw a veteran AoE player with the grand prize. The winner, Ørjan "TheViper" Larsen, a longstanding champion of the Age of Empires II, emerged victorious in the first "S-tier" event.
The new competition saw players from different communities battle it out. Being that Age of Empires IV was a relatively new addition to the list of eSports tournaments, this competition attracted big names from other Age of Empire titles, Warcraft, and StarCraft. Despite all odds, TheViper, the most decorated Age of Empires II player today, still won the grand prize defeating the Norwegian TheMista" Bonidis in the final.
TheViper's achievement in the tournaments was key in establishing his status in the Age of Empire IV. However, he remains a preeminent AoE II player.
Key takeaways
The biggest AoE players will be known by the end of 2022's Golden League competition. However, eSports competitions are usually marked by stiff competition due to the competition's dynamics. While the winner deserves the honors, even a player ranked fifth in the competition can still be a remarkable competitor. Bettors placing bets on eSport contests can make substantial amounts by shifting their focus from the main prize.
During the competition, players are subjected to all manner of options such as the Open Battlefields, Off-Meta Combat, Exclusive Conclusion, Playoff Group Stage, and the Final Four. As such, it is undoubtedly difficult to pick an outright winner during the early stages of the competition.
