Ox(en) are adult male cattle, bulls, that have typically been castrated so as to perform work, like dragging trade carts to and fro. So yes, you're correct.
Yes, but ironically those are not oxen. Those are water buffalos, which is inaccurate because 1) they are African, not East Asian, and 2) they've never been domesticated.
@@cfban Ooo buffalo facts! It's true, those look like the Cape buffalo with the distinctive horns, Syncerus caffer ssp. caffer - definitely an African animal. There is an animal referred to as an Asian water buffalo though, Bubalus bubalis (amazing scientific name). I did some light reading on Mongolian domesticated working animals, and it seems there are 5 essential animals: horse (of course), sheep, goats, camels, and yaks. Cows/oxen grouped with yaks in this list as they are very similar. To be accurate, Mongolians would probably have camels pulling their trade cargo. Yaks were used for this sometimes, but camels are faster and easier to push long distances with little water.
Imma play Michi right after I finish watching this wonderful game! I've been enjoying it so far. One player has better micro while the other keeps spamming units blindly. I reckon I know who'll win. P.S. Appreciate you casting despite not being at 100%, Isaac. EDIT: I was wrong about who I thought would win.
Woah, Isaac, you were right on your prediction of who was going to attack first and where! That's very out of character for Cast of Empires! (And we love it for it).
Also Isaac, I was just going to ask you if you could cast a FreakinAndy game. I'm glad he's started taking a liking to Michi. Will be looking forward to it!
Appreciate it! Yeah, I call Survivalist and Hoang that too even though they've been around for a while - basically anyone approximately 2200 - 2400 Elo who I think can get into top 25 with some improvements.
Hoang missed opportunity to go send bunch of hussars from same tunnel used by Dracken to attack trade route also the walls were broken in Dracken base.
You are right that oxen are a type of cattle. However, those are not oxen. Those are water buffalos, which is inaccurate because 1) they are African, not East Asian, and 2) they've never been domesticated.
Michi is disgusting. :P And at the pro level is just unbearable as at lower tiers. Yet it always wins when the devs put it into the pool proposals so clearly many people enjoy it...

I just came here to see who would tell him.

Caster: I should rest my voice so I can fully heal
Also caster: they clump! They CLUMP!! THEY CLUUUMP !!!
Haha

Haha correct predictions are not my speciality
this was a treat!

Did you just call DraCKeN a rising start in the thumbnail? He has been around since 2003 😅
Good casting! I like the mini windows you use!
Appreciate it!

Great long game 🎉 great cast
There's some really cool mirror matchups. Most Steppe civs, but also Byzantines (mass catas woohoo!).
This map looks fun, I would def play some Michi
the deference in the collected stone happens when a villager dies holding it
Interesting but where did the villager mine it from originally (just 1 stone or 4 stone)?
24:35 aaand it's gone, they clumped :D
Mirror civ matchup plus a long game
Damn
Hoang missed opportunity to go send bunch of hussars from same tunnel used by Dracken to attack trade route also the walls were broken in Dracken base.
What a fun game. I love Michi.
Get well soon!
I think michi would be better if the there is thinner woods where you can cut with workers before imperial if you want

Oooh gotcha!
Both feelings. I like imp post imp play, wjich is rare in arabia. Its different. Like forrest nothing. :)
More michi before its goone!
Is it possible to destroy the neutral market?
I believe so, but it has very strong armour so it'd take a long time
Michi is great, high or low elo players!
I would like to, michi is a a 50/50. but yes, I would play it
Dracken just missed arena too much, had to wall the forest out
Haha
gg wp civ win
Haha
That's why I don't play Michi
mot fun to play Michi but fun to watch
24:30 has to be a short video!
100%
This map is soooo boring, my humble opinion of course, even if SO makes it a lil more interesting
😀

It's such a contentious map
Good videos. AOE_RUSH_ToOnY 🖤🤍🎉🎊
