So that's how you play Kronos!

[@moebino2685]

you probably won't see this Viper but most myth units can't use their abilities against hero units

Edit: You can't Bolt Citizens (or any villagers) so this doesn't work.
-In hindsight I think using the Bolt on a Citizen as soon as you can get your scout to their base could be a way to stop the rush? That's a big hit to their economy, and also Bolting an Atlantean military unit always seems such a waste because none of them are exceptionally good.-

[@Ide_AL]

not possible to use bolt on Citizen

[@hirvielain9013]

@@Ide_AL Damn, you're right, I tested it in editor just to be sure. I guess I should just resign whenever I face Kronos...

[@garrettshort7920]

I like just fast castling with kronos because you get the extra protection with two myth units getting gifted to you.

You know its a viper game when he cant stop clicking 😂 ggs man!

[@juanfisi]

love watching you play retold, we are learning toegher lol.

[@connerschupp4543]

Anyone else see the opponent say hello chat at the end of the game?

[@AmanaraDev]

Yeah I did, there is a chance this guy was stream sniping... Although he was also playing very well so could just be game knowledge

[@sundarbe]

With Zeus you should quickly explored and use bolt on a citizen, it will cripple Atlantians for a long time.

[@zokora3656]

AoM is just such a great game. Even if you are in a mirror match there can be quite alot of differences and you can never be sure of your opponents strat thanks to the sub-god system

[@Bushwackerinpa]

I(1120) ran into this yesterday and it yeah its seems impossible to beat this rush.

[@fFighterjet9]

Viper you are awesome!

[@cloud_and_proud]

I think you built the wrong units for countering their units. Murmilos countered your cavalry, turma counter your archers. If you built a barracks, hoplites wouldn't be countered by either of their units. The Atlanteans can't build general archers before the heroic age.
EDIT: Nevermind, apparently Murmillos don't have bonus damage against cavalry.

[@hirvielain9013]

In Retold Murmillo isn't a hard counter to cavalry anymore (edit: apparently never has been), there's no bonus damage. It does win against Hippeus one on one, but it takes a while.

[@cloud_and_proud]

@@hirvielain9013 oh huh I had no idea

[@thomashase2079]

This cronos rush wasnt so strong in the original game. What happened?

[@wyntonbedford9673]

Kronos now gets an extra myth unit when advancing, and also gets 20% of resources back from myth units (and siege) when they die.

[@draqz2400]

AoM lets go!

[@TheRawr0Rawr0Rawr]

That 3/4m Kronos rush is going to be patched out soooo fast

[@m3th0d123]

no it's not... It's all Kronos has going for it, is its' ability to rush and put pressure early. Kronos has nothing else going for it aside from that.

[@TheRawr0Rawr0Rawr]

@@m3th0d123 You and I both know it's going to be fixed so it's less of a rush be real

[@fahr]

@@TheRawr0Rawr0Rawr kronos has always been played like this though

[@VegeeMcSalad]

Prostagma

[@Nachricht-gelöscht]

people who do kronos rush are just lame

[@jaredkanju2064]

Why?

[@bewawolf19]

Just scout and go up earlier if you see them doing it?

[@evgenykuznetsov721]

Dont forget to use your "Bolt" 😏
