T90 to me is such a confusing phenomenon. I've never understood why a low-rated player who (to me) did not have a particularly entertaining personality was the most-subscribed AoE2 player on twitch. Is he actually good now? How high-rated is he compared to Daut and Viper and so on?

He already beat Viper: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Tkf-BMMq-8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Tkf-BMMq-8 T90 is doing great. Also improved massively his commentator skills. Give him a try! :)

  Ah, yeah, I kind of meant in a serious match though. In that match viper made 3 docks on a land map and no feudal army. As T90 himself said, "The trouble with playing viper is that if viper memes me, and I win, people just say oh T90 isn't good, viper wasn't trying. And if I lose, well, T90 can't even beat viper when he's not trying. So it's a lose-lose situation." Too true. I see he is #96 on rankings right now though, that's terrific. Being able to beat #1 isn't the only measure of success and I don't mean to imply otherwise.

Maybe because > He shares a lot of his secrets ? Teachers don't have to be the best at the _thing_, they should be really good at explaining concepts. Maybe T90 is the people watch when then want to go from zero to average? I don't want to be coached by the best tennis player in the world, it would be a waste and I couldn't do any of the things they could teach me. A solid above average player that knows my limits and can explain how to correct flaws would be much better (for me).

T90 is on the 2000-2100 range currently, he just reached top 100.

He's likeable, non-offensive and casual. Watching people try too hard at a game is draining sometimes.
