Set is one of those gods where the power of abuse can really take away from what seemed to be the actual design of the civilization. Converting animals eating them in the safety of your home, what could be more thrilling?
Solid video, thank you! One Question: my animal-converting priest regularly gets attacked/zeus-bolted/otherwise molested. How would you proceed? Build a second priest?
I've seen this strategy with some high ranked player, they build a second one after going classical, but first you its a gamble, you want to dodge the ennemy scout, so its kinda a bet between who will invade the base of the other or not, if the priest is slow, it can sometimes pass by the scout like a ghost lol
its macro heavy if you're a new player, I would recommend just going shadouf and farms, but gazelles are ok and giraffes too, remember you need favor so try not to spend too much
Egipcians are the set of gods I struggle playing the most, I can't adapt to their playstyle, so this has been really helpful! Can't wait for more on other gods as well!
Well, there's not much point when I'm showing off a build. Titans sometimes hit earlier and harder than the normal person so it can not demonstrate the builds well. If you want to watch me take on titan ais check out the Boit vs Machine series.
please make more of these for different civs, I personally only know a good Oranos 4:30 into turma and murmillo spam but would like to learn other civs, specially Loki and Chinese
He has a playlist "build orders" with Loki - But yeah I really think so too that he should make more of these build orders! its reaallly interesting !! I'm a fan
but there is a hard counter there if they kill ur priest early like with a bolt as zeus u cant do nothing, am i right? U can make another one but if they got his heroe chasing around ur zone u cant take that hunt easily
Little late to the party, but it probably depends on what your opponent builds. The Horus barracks upgrades really makes them all viable in the late game.
Nice, show the same vs titan mode :) i got problems winning against titan mode... im a Thor player and its hard to play against hades... nice videos, i watch them all, post more :)
This strategy is supposed to compete with other players, not the titan mode... Titan ai has 100 handicap, so *half* the training time and *twice* the resource income. After some minutes, you get overwhelmed no matter your economy and military; of course you can use this strategy and cheese, for example make the ai chase single units across the map. To win "legitimate", you can (1) rush the ai for example loki's hersir rush (kill the first soldiers and hit villagers before he outproduces you) or (2) build walls after walls and win with wonder. Thor vs Hades go 2nd tc semi-fast heroic if he goes 2 tc as well, otherwise defend against his rush and go heroic. Starting in midgame an army of huskarls + throwing axemen + frost giants give him a reeeeaaally hard time. Raid him continuously with a couple of huskarls to weaken his economy. Use frost for his underworld play.
Probably not with correct reactions and good defensive building placement. You have ancestors as a tool as well as selling wood in the market to get your population up/the 300 gold for another migdol for second gold defence if need be. I don't think I'd be worried about it too much.
This was orgasmic, more guides like this please ^^, also its interesting the way it is done, no upgrades dont necessarily means you will have weaker eco, in fact it makes sense because the 2nd tc is actually earlier and safer that way (AND steal THE GOATUNHEIM MY DUDE :D)
I have to say something and it's not criticism...please turn down the sound effects next time since they overlapped quite often with what you were saying. Other that that, thanks.
