Thank you for making exactly the guides I need as a veteran RTS gamer. This is the kind of stuff the kick-starts people into higher level of player the fastest. I think it would be really helpful if you made a video about Micro tricks/tactics in combat. As well as a general "Scouting" guide that goes over what different things mean when you see them.
I love your guides. Please keep them coming. I'm already trying to copy your openings as best as I can though I struggle to match those exact timings. I'm eagerly waiting for your in-depth guide for Ra!
So cool!! If I could request a Ra build order at some point that would be clutch. Lots of us farm lovers coming from AoE4 (English and Japanese both usually start with farms and these two civs are super popular). No rush though, thanks for all the content it's super appreciated. I'm binge watching all your vids lol
This seems like an extremely high level build. It’s extremely tight on having enough food to click up with. Feels like it needs an extra villager for most players. I think from 10 attempts i’ve only been able to click up at 17 pop maybe once or twice. I’m top 5-10 percent aoe2 so it’s not that i massively suck at macro.
I hold don’t alt and right click then spam the button N to ungarrison which is my hotkey, I can show you on stream next time I’m live just ask in the comments
idk what I'm doing wrong, but my temple is finishing at 3:35, I disable auto queue on TC so next villager won't come out, and I force drop food villagers, but I still never have 400. Does this not work on some maps? vs hippos for example it takes a bit longer to take one down. But even on other maps I didn't have 400 food when temple finished
Hippos you can do it even better since you can lure them right to your tc, I’d have to see the replay to know where you’re going wrong but it should work on every ladder map
How many villagers should I be using to take my town center expansion? I recently learned that additional villagers building gives diminishing returns. Now sometimes it will still be worth it to hit a timing, like how you used three villagers for the temple in this build. But in most cases 1 builder is most efficient. It seems that building a TC works differently from other buildings though! (has to reach full HP in order to go up) So, do you still have diminishing returns? If you do how much is it worth getting the TC up faster? You pulled 7 to build in this example, I was surprised by so many.
yep there's diminishing returns, did a small analysis and found the number to be between 6-8, sometimes you also need to use more than necessary to avoid it being blocked by your opponent
I love the short build order videos, but a quick request, it’ll be awesome if u could do all the build order cheat sheet in a more visually appealing way like the one u had for the Greeks build order video, I know it takes time, so maybe you can update your videos later, if possible, but still great videos as always. Thanks in advance.
Wonderful Video as always can you make a video about fundamentals for new player like what is Aom what mentality you should have when you play why you build the houses around turret's what turret's means in this game why tc are hitting soo slow compare to Aoe 4 and stuff like this will be amazing for people coming from other rts like my self to have a better point of view what is Aom and how you should be thinking when you play it :)
It all depends on the game, unfortunately its a tough question to answer, its all going to come down to what you’re making and what you’re planning on doing, if you’re going to be making chariots you’ll need quite a bit on wood and some on gold cause that’s what they cost, I always keep 4 vills on food per tc at minimum to ensure constant food production. I’ll make a video about this at some point
As set, what early army comp would you reccomend going for immediately after this opening? Im sure it depends on your oppenent and the game state, but would you say a good general strategy from this point would be to make a couple barracks and train a combination of spearmen and axeman? Also, do you think Anubis' unique Poison Spear upgrade is worth it to grab early?
How come no one seems to play as loki. Ive played 100 ranked matches, placed as 1050 so lower average skill level, but ive never played against a loki.
boars might make it a bit tougher for sure, but i think it's still possible to get around the same time, if you have to delay your tc a few seconds thats ok too, if you need to advance a vill slower thats also not an issue, don't worry too much about getting the same time
@IamMagicAOM tbh, I've pinned it down to me being very new and absolutely clueless with what I'm doing 😂😅 only got the game today but loving it so far!
I'm sorry if this sounds rude but some of these build order guides are useless. The most important guide should be how to do the heroic age rush with Egypt in water but nobody has done that guide yet, we could have that guide instead of this one
@@sanher20 yes. There are tons of different strategies for diffrent scenarios. Just because you can make a guide doesn't mean you should ignore other people's ideas.........

on its way!
Thank you. Short sweet to the point. 10/10 video, liked and subbed.
4:00 Do effect stacks when build more monuments near barracks and Migdol? And yes, temple is excluded.
nope!
@@IamMagicAOM Thank you
I owe alot of the Xbox community success to you I’ve been spreading the word, and it’s been growing.❤️
I appreciate it!

Thanks for the build! How do you have you villagers enter and exit the TC so quickly at 2:19? It seems like their exit from the TC has been queued up
I hold don’t alt and right click then spam the button N to ungarrison which is my hotkey, I can show you on stream next time I’m live just ask in the comments
Loving set in this remake thanks

Thank you so much! Any chance you could make an all-in Fast Heroic for Isis?
Thanks magic!
It'd be nice to see a full skirmish demonstration

sure i'll try, it does take quite some time as i'm not a graphic artist so i'm really slow at doing that kind of stuff haha
Sure I get it. Appreciate the time and effort. Cheers

good idea, i'll try my best when I get a chance!
what would you recommend is the best distribution of villagers ? how many do you put on wood normally? thanks amigo
It all depends on the game, unfortunately its a tough question to answer, its all going to come down to what you’re making and what you’re planning on doing, if you’re going to be making chariots you’ll need quite a bit on wood and some on gold cause that’s what they cost, I always keep 4 vills on food per tc at minimum to ensure constant food production.
I’ll make a video about this at some point
@@IamMagicAOM thanks bro!
is it not worth building more priests to convert more animals?
It is if you have the means to do it, usually in high level games they won’t let you
So if i build a camp near the monuments the units will be pricier?
they will be cheaper!
@@IamMagicAOM ok ty!

hey check out my latest video, I did a replay review there for set, you'll be able to see the build in action
Could you explain how you put all 9 vils so fast in and out the tc?
I went into in depth in my video "answering user questions" its basically just garrison + ungarrison with a hotkey
Loki, build order? plz
How come no one seems to play as loki. Ive played 100 ranked matches, placed as 1050 so lower average skill level, but ive never played against a loki.
amazing
Good video
I dont know why but ive tried so many times now and i can just never get the food to upgrade anywhere near the same timing as you
Is this build dependant on what animals are around? Because I've tried with boars and can't get the food timing right
I'm also on console
boars might make it a bit tougher for sure, but i think it's still possible to get around the same time, if you have to delay your tc a few seconds thats ok too, if you need to advance a vill slower thats also not an issue, don't worry too much about getting the same time

tip: rather than pauzing > fast forwarding > pauzing > fast forwarding try to have the game play out while talking.
I wanted to explain some points at specific intervals though
