Brother, do you have a civ that you love that happens to be good? If you do all I would recommend is replaying the first 5 minutes of a game over and over with 2 different starting strategies, typically it’s 2 TC or rush. If you practice this over and over within an hour or two you’ll be 2-3x better than you are now
@@DDShorts21 I usually play Rus and Japanese, I guess Rus is still good, just have to shift from that old mindset of Kremlin to the new one. You're right though, I should try that. Thanks!
Still hoping Beasty gets involved with Sajam Slam. It would love seeing the Fighting Game Community and the RTS community interacting with each other more. It could be interesting to watch the cross pollination.
Man these are top of the top, cream of the crop, bippety bop vids. Also new Zhu Xi build order when? I'm a lowly plat player and can't think for myself, and these new ways to play you speak of boggle my mind. Usually I go 2TC or feudal baboon spam because I have no idea what to do after FC besides take relics.
I've been having lots of trouble with China, it's like 6-8 minutes in and I'm getting rushed buy massed castle units or massed units in general, If I hold off the first assault and go castle, I'm fine but it's a little rough. Early stone walls are a good counter well raiding their eco because they have to spend resources on rams and can't mass like 50 archers and 20 Palace Guards when you only have like 15 units.
AOE4 Statistics for 'Conqueror Iv' since October/November has Abbasid at 43% win rate. I am fairly sure the nerfs have driven Abbasid to less than S tier. Prob less than A tier
I love age of empires since I was a child but the main problem for me they always had is the lack of faction specific troops. Like wtf it’s not even that hard. Every faction has like 3-4 unique troops and this is just not enough. It is not even hard to create them.
@@colin8477 if you and your opponent are the same skill level it’s still d tier at any level of the game. Idk why he says these lists don’t apply to gold/platinum players, because they definitely do, and they apply to ladder games in general. Balance is not perfect
I dont know why i alwas find zugs ti be really flixible and really good Definately i am bad against zug all in and all other cheese stuff like fast castle etc but the fact that zugs are so cheap and can easly be spammend and you can legit get all deers behind that with pro scout is really good Honstely xhu xhi and china are too good too flexibile and there is not a road map what you bascially wanna do against them
Sorry bro but as a Plat 1 Team player I can confirm Mongoloids are S-Tier+++. Why? "Bro build towers." "The fucks a tower? Oof owwie my vils, don't worry my spearman will take care of it."
I feel like English has been so weak this patch no matter if I play it or the enemy plays it. Only when I got to imperial, perma producing wynguard rangers while being somewhat even I was confident in winning. Other than that it felt like by far the worst civ that I play
@@khoaanh9188 it's a calv unit I mean even knights are just horses with humans on them. Camels spook the horses making them hard to control whether they are doing damage with a bow or sword doesn't really matter.
@@bonaviafx9434 I'm not too sure on the meta right now but I assume with the chapel nerf it's more of a feudal play to get the most out of marching drills
I just started playing China and I’m blown away with how crazy it is. Age 2, 4 archery ranges and I can spam 4 bows/1 vill from minute 5 till game over. As you grow your army diversity grows and 50-60 bows will kill almost any army
This tier lists don’t make any sense really. It depends and varies at each level, depends on players as well, and even if it might be somehow relevant for Pros, it still works only for a few dozen of dudes which will always play differently depending on the match up so not following “meta”. Anyway, I guess the purpose is to talk about the game without telling much in fact to keep to community updated! But I really feel it’s somehow pointless and just polarize people who will bully other because they pick “OP CIV” 😅
I feel these videos are just fun to watch, that's why he makes so many of them, there was no need to another tier list after 2 weeks. Anyway he's right when he says that it's not for everybody. People in low leagues like me (plat) will always say that the easy civs to play are even those OP, like english and french, just because we are not able to play the hard ones. According to my tier list for example: i m way happier to play against an abbasid, byz or delhi than a OOTD, specially in team games.
@@mxalltheway It does not make any sense at all unless you are assuming that peoples skill is a static non changeable variable which is simply wrong but ok.
Thanks for always posting content dude. I suck, but you somehow keep me engaged with AoE4 and keep me wanting to play.
Same bro

Same for me too man. I used to watch Aussie Drongo a lot, but I switched to Beasty when he started posting more. I've never gone above plat lol.
Same, i almost delete aoe4
Just wanna say thank you for these videos, our friend group has been super obbssed with aoe recently and u keep us hooked lol. GAMERS
I could watch beasty yaps about aoe4 for hours and still gonna listen to it hahaha
beasty yapping so good low key best content on yt
99% of the viewers are gold players.
Beasty: „this is for tippedi top - NOT FOR GOLD PLAYERS -🤣
Remember to eat biltong, it is S-tier food in SA.
your tier lists may be my favorite videos you post, even if I am a diamond/plat gamer
Always nice to hear these even tho I suck with all the civs

Merry Christmas and happy new year Beasty!
I’d like to see military schools cost reduced now that they’re tuned properly
Thanks for the awesome videos
And Happy new year 🎉
I absolutely love zu shi legacy so much fun
Mongol need a buff or unit who could stun or slow enemies or little walls to slow enemy push like traps
Have some nice holidays QT!
I live in South Africa, I hope you have a great holiday!

Which do you prefer more? China or Zhuxi
thanks for this.. im using byzans rn .. i like city building lol
i know otto got crazy nerfs but what happened to mongolia?
Countered by nice eco civ, like 2tc is very easy to do with those stupid strong civ these days, mongol just not as good eco compare to A~S tier civ
What province you visiting beasty?
Can’t seem to get a designated dropoff point on Xbox for the pro scouting deer.. anyone knows how?
Order of the D tier :(
They only D tier for the top 1% of the playerbase lol

The problem with order truly is that you have half the units of everyone else and that your units are not twice as effective
@@ashtonmayfield9217 do you know winrate list?
@@tuplatykki6114 yes and its explained why the win rates are skewed and inaccurate to civ balance in previous beasty videos
why is forged in steel tournament not streamed live on youtube?
cause its streamed on twitch

didn't even talk about ottoman, my poor civ
Ootd would be a lot better with normal production times on units
Beasty, You are coming to South Africa? Cape Town? Welcome! Enjoy our minimum 140ms online play.
Both Roman Empires still going strong
They need to make cavalry cost 2 populations.
supervising has always been strong dont change china they are perfect
I come here just for the reality check with the disclaimers

That mean courage human on horse is not courage anymore. That is ... :)))
Urgend Emergent Tier List!
why is hre good I get wrecked everytime. How do I play this civ?
@@bonaviafx9434 I'm not too sure on the meta right now but I assume with the chapel nerf it's more of a feudal play to get the most out of marching drills
Make one for us gold noobs.
china not s tier because of farm transition
Granary too fucking big yea?
@@ashtonmayfield9217 not too big just takes a lot of wood. its easier with sushi cuz they have cheaper eco buildings
@@Kwambomb23 i find them a bit harder to protect tho becuse of the sheer amount of room they take up
Sad ootd noises
Ty
I lose because I suck ✋️
real china mains know in the right hands china will always be top tier

I only win or dominate as Japanese 😅

Do funny that hre is S and its variant D 😂
mae boe
lmao
The disclaimer is somewhat stupid. Good civ is good at lower leagues too.
Because silver players are definitely going to play China and Malians well and fully utilize their strengths lmao
no, just no. Just look at winrates. Best/worst civs are changing the high the rank is.
@@mxalltheway That only tells that the learning curve from some civs are higher. Damn..you guys are really bad at logic hmm..
