In recent years, the competitive landscape of the game AoE (Age of Empires) has reached new heights, particularly following the remarkable events at AoE Trung Viet 2025 held in the Jiangxi region. After five intense days of competition, the excitement and anticipation surrounding AoE remain as strong as ever, even after nearly 30 years since its inception. The recent tournament has shed light on the reasons why AoE continues to captivate gamers, especially in Vietnam.

Throughout the five days of the tournament, players from both Vietnam and China showcased remarkable skills and strategies on the battlefield. The emotional rollercoaster of each match was palpable, filled with moments of triumph, tension, and joy. The players from Vietnam, particularly the renowned gaming clan, demonstrated their hope and determination by reaching all five finals, ready to compete for the coveted championship titles. Even when the finals were held on the last day of the tournament, AoE Vietnam had already claimed two championship titles.

The Solo Shang format, which is a stronghold for the Chinese AoE team, posed a significant challenge for the Vietnamese players. It was evident that the Vietnamese team had to adapt quickly to the intense competition, especially considering the formidable skills of their Chinese counterparts. Naming conventions like “Solo Shang” and “Solo Assyrian” became benchmarks for evaluating performance, creating significant pressure on the players.
Nevertheless, there was a standout performance from Kamachi, a member of the EGO Clan, who successfully navigated through the tournament, defeating renowned teams like Hậu and Ngạch Hán, and even the legendary Tiểu Thủy Ngư, to secure a place in the final rounds. This achievement was especially noteworthy as it brought the team closer to matching the legendary Shenlong in Solo Shang competitions.

After overcoming initial challenges on the first day, the Vietnamese team maintained their composure and focused on their strategies going into the Solo Shang finals. They exhibited a positive mindset, which allowed them to perform excellently in the Solo Assyrian matches, achieving up to 7 wins and advancing confidently in the tournament.
In the direct elimination matches, BiBi and Cam Quýt emerged as key players, facing off against Shenlong and showcasing their impressive skills. The Chinese AoE team encountered numerous difficulties, but the Vietnamese players remained unfazed, demonstrating their determination and teamwork.
Despite the challenges, the AoE Vietnam team, led by ChipBoy and featuring other talented players, was determined to seize the championship titles. The team was committed to representing their country honorably and showcasing their skills on an international stage. They navigated through intense matches, ultimately reaching the finals and securing their place in history.

As the tournament progressed, AoE Vietnam triumphed in the 2vs2 Assyrian matches, marking a significant victory for them. The two teams, Cam Quýt – 2k1 Bắc Ninh and Sang Club – Tiểu Màn Thầu, showcased incredible synergy and strategy, earning their place in the finals.
In the semi-finals, the performance of Sang Club – Tiểu Màn Thầu was particularly noteworthy; they displayed excellent teamwork and strategic planning, ultimately defeating their opponents decisively. This matchup highlighted the growing competition and skill level of the Vietnamese players, who are now ready to challenge the legendary teams in the future.

In the finals, the efforts of AoE Vietnam culminated in a stunning display of skill, with the team clinching the title in the 3vs3 Shang matches. Despite the intense competition, they remained resolute and focused on their goal. With three teams representing Vietnam in the semi-finals, the excitement was palpable as they prepared to face off against their opponents.
As the tournament concluded, AoE Vietnam’s performance was not just a personal victory; it represented a broader achievement for the community and the future of competitive AoE gaming in Vietnam. With a growing pool of talent and dedication, the hope for AoE Vietnam’s success continues to thrive.
