Hades actually has a very strong (prolonged) classical fight with shades. I'm not sure how helpful your ranking of "best strategies" is because it depends so much on the matchup. Greek will always boom against Ra for example and are slightly favored in that matchup, but are usually forced to classical fight against Norse.
I love the dwarves for thor. They are just as good for food and gold till upgraded, spawn an ox cart, dwarves till out of gold, build a dwarven armory on one side of your tc and temple on the other immediately before you use any wood, set the dwarves you have to hunting, new dwarves on gold, and get gatherers for wood for the rest of the food you start with. By the time you have the pop to need houses you have the wood for it and you only need food and gold to rush heroic then use the mine.
Best strat I found for Set is convert aggressive animals to harass enemy villagers, wadjet for the upgrades, then late game you mass elephants, chariots, and slingers. The elephants soak up damage and body block enemy units while archers take out anti cavalry. Works great in my experience on Voobly. Your archers and migdols are cheaper, and you really just need to focus on gold
I like massing automatons as Kronos. Mix some murmillos and cheiroballistas to counter heroes and you're pretty much set. Automatons are especially strong at defending vs early raids since they can rebuild each other.
Odin is better for classical attack than thor because of the free flying scouts. On water maps gaia and poseidon enter the classical fight because they are amazing on water. Moreover, all atlantean gods are amazing in the classical age because of free favor, so you can create an army based on low cost myth units, even though gaia is weak against kronos.
In my opinion Thor is the best God in the game. The first I've won vs Titan level. At the beginning you can directly create dwarfs since they are cheaper, you can build your temple near to the enemy base. Your soldiers are builders, which gives you the chance to play really agressive and surround your enemy with buildings, create more soldiers faster and close to your enemy. Combine it with Healing Spring on Classical Age and create hell for your enemy viligers and base at all. But that's not all. That Forge is just broken. On Classical age, you can upgrade all of the upgrades in the forge, even more, they are 50% cheaper. You can just end the game on early.. Thor is the God
Hard disagree on Ouranos. He should be in his own tier of super easy between his teleporting building, stun miracle, and being able to get both Prometheus for Hero regeneration as well as Atlas for military unit teleportation from his tech tree.
I would bump Hades to Medium..the way he encourages you to play defensively and with ranged units can often lead you to nonoptimal strategies. Eventho I enoyed the vid in my opinion not including the Chinese gods is a bit akward, I get that they might be broken, unfun and not recieved well by the community..but 90% of players play a version of the game with them..for that reason Id like to see them included, I dont think throwing them in dismantles the rest of the placements in the tierlist, so I feel like there is no con to that..just an opinion.
If you want to beat him fast in 5 to 10 minutes (it's not that easy but it's easy to practice) Chronos is better, keep in mind that Ra will always go econimic and at least 25 minutes of game you eat
Zeus is as hard as set or Even hwrder still floor, u cant play zeus ar decent lol without apm since its centaur dependent god, the macro is also one of the hardest, zeus is the hardest skill flood god, for the apm/micro/macro required, This gotta be fixed, set is hard because u gitta understand a lot about the god, thor is hard because its weak and ragnarock dependent, but talking about skill, zeus is the hardest one so far
Yeah I get his point that if you have played other RTS you will probably pick greek up easier, but in terms of competing in ranked games greek is harder to play than norse imo.
The multiplayer players are based on AOM: The Titans instead of Extended Edition. Because EE really has a lot of problems in balancing especially since the Chinese were straight-broken. That's why BoitTV and other high-level players rather play The Titans instead of EE
We don't talk about Tale of the Dragon. An absolute farce in civ design, voice acting, campaign plot, and unit design. There are fan made projects out there that put it to complete shame.
@@qt123qt The balance itself is decent, just a different focus on EE ("more flavor by making a lot of strategies viable") than Voobly ("maximum 1v1 fairness for the meta strategies"). However, the game lags for everyone if even just 1 player has a bad computer or bad internet connection; this is also the case on Voobly, but EE has way higher hardware requirements (guaranteed lag if the game is no installed on a SSD). And recorded games play with reduced speed, so it is tedious to cast for content creators. No ranked games available for teamgames and when queueing for 1v1 you don't know how many others in your range are queued so you might wait a long time.
Zeus is a real pain in the ass at difficult setting....im trying to defeat him using loki at migration map but within 6 minutes they're opening up tartarian gate

I love it he dosen't have the chinese ones LOL
Cuz they are the worst. Tbh I would delete them from the game.
What chinese?
@@skipper7152 I think it is about tale of dragon, very bad dlc in my opinion
@@skipper7152Nigtmare not dificultit here.
I remember as a kid playing Hades and reveling in the power of late game Gastrephetes. Loved Odin & Ra as well.
This was literally what I always defaulted to as well 😂 they are such a fun unit when they have the upgrades

This video explains why I love Greek and Atlantean 😁
Found your channel recently and it's the first aom one ive subscribed to. Makes me want to play the game again, havent in ages
That’s great! If you still have the original disc it works on modern pcs, or there’s extended edition on steam too 🙂

Like your videos! playing since 2002 release...and now waiting for the remaster :)
I hope they give it the AoE4 treatment, not a remaster but full on new development.
just found your channel.. great content my dude!! keep releasing videos about AOM! Greetings from Brazil..🇧🇷
greetings caro conterrâneo kkkkk

So good video bro. Keep it up.
The nice is i am greek but i was preferring Ra on my game...i like egyptian culture and i like egyptians on age of mythology.
Hard disagree on Ouranos. He should be in his own tier of super easy between his teleporting building, stun miracle, and being able to get both Prometheus for Hero regeneration as well as Atlas for military unit teleportation from his tech tree.
Strange how all the gods in very easy and easy are related to the formation Hellas.

hades/ra/oranos/zeus (gaia for fun sometimes) , i hate playing with set
Good video, I have to disagree about greek, yes their the standard civ but still harder to play than kronos by at least one tier.
Thanks! I can see where you’re coming from, Kronos could be in his own tier just above the other Atlantean’s but below the Greeks.
In classical AOM pigs have more LOS than Oracle 😥
Can we get a update for retold already?
I’ll be doing one for retold after I get some games in! Too early to tell right now
I’m trying to decide between Ra and Oranos to main and beat my friend with, iam a fast learner, if anyone has any input let me know 🍇
If you want to beat him fast in 5 to 10 minutes (it's not that easy but it's easy to practice) Chronos is better, keep in mind that Ra will always go econimic and at least 25 minutes of game you eat
@@santiagoospina8609 interesting, thank you, and what do you mean by at least 25 minutes of game you eat?
@@11--------- It is an expression, it means that the game lasts at least 25 minutes, that is if you do it well and you know how to progress with Ra
@@santiagoospina8609 I see, well then I'll probably go chronos and oranos, I really like oranos so far but I haven't really tried chronos.
about the chinese gods?
The Chinese gods aren't well balanced and not many people play them so harder to rank
It is so annoying that Gaia, one of the easiest civs to play in the whole game, is so absurdly broken.
Gaia is maybe the worst god in the game (at high level) and the least played
@@louisp.4635 We might be playing different versions.

One more reason not to play EE and actually play the aot
