    I'd just like to express that I feel you are massively underrating Dwarven Goldmine at the moment and I feel it's at least an A-tier, if not an S-tier power.
    Thor is dominating the high ELO at the moment because of that power coupled with easy Favour gain from herdables and seems basically immune to being gold-starved which every other civ is suffering from atm.

    Hesperides Tree has got a new effect that I am not sure a lot of people have noticed as of now : the default cap for Dryads you can have at any time (which is 5) increases with each new tree you spawn. So if you spawn a second tree, you can spawn 5 more Dryads, and so on... The cap can be maximized up to 25, so the 6th tree will not increase the cap - unless, of course, an ally or an enemy takes hold of one of your trees.
    It really increases the power's value even more : the fact that you can get an army of 25 Dryads (instand of just 5 max), and with no pop cost, nor favor (besides the cost of the tree), and only a handful of gold... Yeah, it really bumps the power up a tier or two.

      Nobody in a competitive game is going to cast this beyond the first two free uses. 125 favour can be spent in much better places. The dryads themselves aren't particularly strong, the god power is ok now you get the 2 units for free but no way its A tier or higher, the powers above it can all end games on use.

  • @markvanderwerf8592
    @markvanderwerf8592 Месяц назад +1

    Agree with most,
    things I would put slightly different:
    Sentinels, lower just not very versatile. Doesn't protect your hunt and doesn't protect much against raids in general. The economic powers are much more versatile that they also benefit aggression.
    Dwarven mine, this has to be higher. It has a higher collection rate making it really good in Heroic age and can save you in a clutch in Classic too. The first reuse is 60 favor which is quite low and in mythic age you get 6000g with +50% collection rate just giving Thor great endgame by itself.
    Gaia forest, not the great god power but definitely should be higher. Basically you have +5% wood collection rate for the majority of the game. Also has other small benefits like securing your gold, putting wood next to gold so you can swap instantly and just having another cast available to create a wall.
    Ceasefire, counters too many good god powers to not be higher: ancestors-eclipse, bronze, flaming weapons, chaos, fimbulwinter.. then very useful vs underground passage, vortex, frost, ragnarok etc.. And besides all those godpowers it can also just save you vs being caught out of position with a raid. Or doing a raid and then using it to get back to defend a push. Dropping a forward fortress, etc. Too many options. And with a reuse cost of 75 there is a case to be made if you use it early to reuse it for say fimbulwinter.
    Curse, I just dont think it's S tier anymore. It's solid, always good. But that feels like it's it. Just doesn't get all that many units. Sure it's super easy to use but in big battles it's effect is somewhat minimal.
    Traitor, at the same time this must be a little higher I think even though it isn't that good. Just compare to curse, there you instantly kill 800 resources. Every heroic myth creature is at least 200 resources 20 favor. So taking that one unit if you counter favor as 10 resources is also a 800 resource swing (they down 400 you up 400). Against Greek or Norse the targets always seem juicy. Then recasting is not so expensive even though the timer is long so for 15 favor or 30 favor this is still a great deal. Heck at 45 it's still decent value against the strong lategame myth units, i think it just straight up invalidates some picks like fafnir.

    @NathanAdams-v4c Месяц назад

    it is worth considering getting two sons of Osiris they just go so hard counter myth units so hard just keep them protected, also getting two means even stronger eco buffs and upgrades at bases and even faster unit spawning two sons of Osiris is almost broken and so much fun easily one of the best God powers in the game I think it's very underrated and its affordable for when you spawn for the second time and have one on the offensive and one at base helping getting even faster stuff of whatever it is you need or both of them on the offensive so scary to deal with

  • @Paddythelaad

    Undermine was reworked, but I almost feel like you were thinking of the original when talking about it (sorry if not the case). It's now a click-and-drag AoE like Locust or Inferno, IMO it feels very underwhelming against buildings now, but it instanly destroy walls and towers, so it can be useful to bust open a turtling enemy early but doesn’t feel as strong vs TCs and Forts

    • @RancorSnp
      @RancorSnp Месяц назад +2

      From the initial testing I've done so far, towers are actually w net negative.
      Their dps is so low, that if one player makes units, and the second player makes the same units, but less by the amount of cost of the towers, and they fight under the arrow fire - the player that didn't waste their money on tower wins.
      And I only balanced the cost of units vs cost of building the tower, I didn't even factor in the cost of the tower upgrades, heck in some match ups, I even only factored in the gold cost to give towers the biggest advantage possible, but they are simply a net negative in tests I did so far

  • @Peyote-Poncho
    @Peyote-Poncho Месяц назад

    Bolt definitely fits B tier. It's great in its niche but it's kind of expensive on a recast and feels way less useful outside its niche
    Also clearly Citadel is S tier because of the drip it gives you
    Joking aside, I wonder if a good way to buff locust swarm could be to kind of rework it a bit? Put it between the current version and the new version; have it start in a set area, then either move in a direction or just kind of disperse outwards, lowering damage but hitting a wider area. A brief period of serious damage, followed by more of an annoyance

    I think with 70-80% of the games ending in classical right now, not to mention the abundance of hunt and extra food Rain is D tier.
    If you gave me the option between rain and literally any other archais age god power I would pick the other option, yes including gaia forest.
    The only "bad" ones would be the ones that actually require scouting, so spy and deconstruct, but even so they offer at least some potential value without having to build farms,
    which even with ptah barely feels on par with just getting some extra hunt.
    Like dont get me wrong rrain is really powerful, but right now it just doesnt come up

      @Zettern96 Месяц назад +2

      @@LordBenji1287 Most newer players won't know what to do with the information vision gives them. A more experienced player can do a lot more with it. For example a player gets vision of an army with Sets power, a newer player will just see an army while an experienced player will be able to tell whether it is an offensive or defensive army and what units to build to counter them. Though I am not very experienced in the Age games, my RTS experience comes mostly form Starcraft 1 and 2 so maybe vision is less important in the Age games.

      This strat definitely works at a low enough level (first time I used it in ranked my opponent left it unchecked and lost cuz he was 1TC down as a result) but then people quickly learn to hunt hidden oracles down and to dispatch just enough troops to deal with the gate, which means the opportunity cost of not having one of the other two powers becomes to great to even try.
