Thanks to your support in bringing us above our $46K goal last month, we're pleased to present you with the first in our monthly series of Top 10s. The week after E3, we gathered to select some countdowns together for the first time in years, and we quickly got in the groove of things, debating some topics for quite a while.

We've made some minor changes to the format, but perhaps the one I'm most fond of is Ian's idea for how we present the number of each entry. It does a fantastic job of identifying the video as distinctly ours, while still being able to write entries and make use of Brandon's VO.

We hope you enjoy this first video, and please leave us any feedback you have.

Cloisterance

the baloons are so silly it works

VGJunky

Keep it up boys

Stephen

Excellent work as always Allies.

David Schluckebier

Retro's game would have been near the top of my list

Kevin Weaver

Holy shit, the balloons. So F'ing jolly.

tahitianwarrior

Amazing Top 10 premiere !! Excellent production values !!! Thanks EZA & Patrons L&R

Owen D-J

Super jolly numbering and totally unique. Love it.

Robert

awesome

Aaron Kirk - Kurxx

Number transitions are 10/10. And I loved hint of snark in the VO. "Time to assemble.... a gameplay trailer" I love it. Well done everyone!

Ville Ranto

This is even better than I dared to hope for, really well made! The quality is top-notch, and the number presentations do make this your own kind. I'm happy for you guys. :)

David Rodríguez Madriñán

I guess I'll have to be the first one to write a criticism :/ Sorry but it looks really weird and cheap, specially after the production values from your E3 coverage. The clips being so far away and static, with a solic color as background make it super jarring when you change to them. Although we fans get a kick out of it (at least the first time) I don't think new viewers will enjoy them. I like the balloons, but maybe try using the chroma in a different way, with some more interesting and dynamic backgrounds, or different camerawork? I don't know. PS: At least re-record number 5, Brad looking at the camera and staying there for half a second too long it's super weird hahaha

Mortal Kombat 11!!!!!

GT Top 10’s were my favorite because they were more concise, deliberate, and professional than other Top 10’s (like Screwattack’s, for example). I liked that you guys put so much effort and took so seriously something that is completely arbitrary and silly. Your top 10’s felt, for a lack of a better word, definitive. I think the new way of presenting the numbers takes away from this feeling. It doesn’t mesh well with Brandon’s VO and the general tone of the video. If you do stick with the new way then I’d suggest altering the format slightly to make the transitions feel less abrupt. Maybe make the number presenting clip slightly longer or have some sort of transition graphic and sound in between the clips and the rest of the video. Having a different ally do the VO for each entry so that it matches the number presenting clip (or whoever wrote the script for that specific entry) could be nice as well.

Can someone please make a gif of Ben's "number nine".

I love the balloons and the idea behind the transitions! It feels like such a unique touch on the presentation of the numbers. But I do kind of agree with the comments by David and Odin, it does feel a little bit...weird? I don't want to say cheap but as each number was presented I did progressively feel myself going...oh. To me specifically I think it has more to do with how you all are basically in the same position when presenting your numbers. Your actual postures may vary a little but that doesn't change how it feels a bit awkward and static. I feel it would have been nice to have more varied, dynamic transitions. Like possibly having people/the number enter or exit, different positioning, different focuses, or different angles. I really like the balloons and I like the solid backgrounds but I dunno just how the actual numbers are presented by you guys feels a bit weird. I'm not a pro and I honestly have no idea how to say what I'm trying to say :p

I love the numbers. Hope you recorded each person with every number allowing for 10 alterations.

Hope we aren't waiting for Avengers 5 to hit theatres before hearing about Squares game!

Snowcone Guy

How did I not see Number 7 coming (The Ally, not the game.)

TurboChickenMan

The video itself was pretty good (though maybe each entry should be teased a little more instead of being instantly revealed), but Brandon's VO is missing the warm, bassy, "professional studio" tone it had at GT. Is this something that demands expensive equipment, or can some knob turning bring it back?

Brandon Patton

I totally thought #1 was going to be Sophie with a 1 ballon and a bark, and now that’s all I want hahaha

DancingElk

The transitions! So great.

LeeLore

Well done! I love how jolly this is to me. The number balloons are jolly. The Allies counting down are jolly. I also think it strikes the right balance of being professional but charming and unique to EZA. Maybe the background should be tweaked a bit, but I have no idea as to what it should. I am happy with it so far.

Ajax

I know it’s top tens, and I love all the allies do, but the production value, fun edits, this is like the best eza content yet

Eric Mitchell

You guys with the balloons was a really funny touch. Awesome to have top 10's back!

Anonymous

Transitions feel off, don't fit the proffesional style

Anonymous

Incredible!! The work you’ve all done has really shown. This format for Top Tens feels solely Easy Allies from the way each game was presented to the interstitials. You have all done an amazing work!!!

Leah

I loved how punchy this was. Some top 10s drag on - but this had great pacing!

Anonymous

Just a suggestion and others may be able to comment on it as well. Perhaps you could put the names of each ally as they introduce it as there may be viewers out there who may not know all 9 of you. As an example Don seeing as I’m sure there are people out there who might only watch/listen to reviews and podcasts would not know who Don is. Either way still super hype that Top 10s are back in action.

Anonymous

Great pacing and fun to watch!

Lee

Only critique is the number 1 transition should have been Sophie or Buttons :D

VGJunky

Retro's game!?

Cash

Sophie bark for #1 pleeease

Ian Alexander

I think you could do the fun transitions a little better by using the green screen to bring in the game footage in some way, rather than just a hard cut. Maybe a closer shot panning in one direction or another where the game footage comes in as the number goes off screen.

Cash

So much great content.

Yui

I think it would flow better if each transition segment was the same length

fuyunotabi

Number...Nine?! Ben, never change. I enjoyed this a lot, and the balloon transitions were a very jolly touch!

Timo Arnken

And just like that, Amy Hennig confirmed that she left EA in January this year. So we won't see anything Star Wars related from her.

If people don't know who a certain Ally are, it'll entice them to check out the rest of Easy Allies content.

Casper Winther

Huber holding the number 7 needs to be a twitch emote :D Grats on the first EZA top 10.

Anonymous

Yoshi got robbed. =)

Danni-H4

This was vary heartfelt.

FreeDoM

I want a Top 10 ways to be a better person. Damiani seems to know a lot about it, so maybe he should write it.

Anonymous

I love the number thing. Makes the list feel very personal! +1

Nimbus

I forgot how much I missed Top 10s until now. I'm so glad they're back! The balloons are a fun touch that shows how different of an era EZA is from GT. Can't wait for the next one

Karl Williams

Huber has moved from swimming in 7s to floating 7s

Nicholas Poer
>>13432379

I thought that too at first, but Huber with the 7 is just too perfect. The others can still move around.

Henk Groenendijk

Best countdown numbering transition I've ever seen!

miggity

thumbs up just for Huber calling out #7

Jason Rumsey

SPLINTER CELL. Man I am hyped for that game, if it exists.

Anonymous

Great to see the top 10 countdown! And loved the little humor with each of the numbers

Daniel Ray

I know I am in the minority, but Borderlands 3!
