I tried this with chinese fairly recently. Seemed ok but was easily countered with skirms and mangonels. Was a defensive castle rather than a castle drop though as it was 13:35 in game
Why do you need the market instead of just keeps villagers on food? The strat is good, I just don’t see the need to have everyone on hold and a market instead of just keep villagers on food?
This is why my own builds (not youpudding builds) are properly refined and dont rely on market abuse. My romans knights in to scorpions build is a great one
@@MorleyGames1 I’m asking though, what’s the benefit of going all on gold and a market instead of horse collar and farms? I’m new and love Sicily they are all I been playing
There isn’t. Market is worse than a proper build. The market abuse builds are where people havent figured out how to make a proper build for the strat.
@@MorleyGames1 I haven’t played ranked yet but I agree, I tried this and I like my strategy I was doing before (I’m sure it’s not optimal but it feels good). Basically I start dark age exactly the same, except I just do a normal feudal start and drop the donjon first and a blacksmith. Then I just start pumping some Serjeants and harass. Then after a few good harassments I drop a donjon near the enemy base and a stable. Just keep casually harrassing till castle and get a ram. I’m a complete noob but I just love how Sicily functions. The donjon requirement for stables makes me forced to have at least a good defense having a strong tower in my base that can drop spears to counter scouts. And Serjeants are so strong in feudal I can push villagers off resources and stall and get ahead, especially with a few scouts running around as well
8 on wood is actually totally unnecessary after trying this strat myself, you end up floating a lot of wood. You don't really need wood aside from selling it and forward siege workshop, so you're better off putting the extra vills on stone or gold. There's also room and enough wood floating to put them on farms as well, just so you don't have to buy all your food.
Nah it doesn’t. Scouts are the worst thing to do vs FC strats like this. As part of these strats, you wall your vills in at the resources. I climbed from 1250 to 1700 with FC strats (proper ones, not market abuse versions)
@@The_ZenTex oh maybe he doesn’t. I came up with the actual build based off of an old one i made for sicilians. But the concept is the same. I just knew he did a fast castle with this timing where as you pudding has a little bit of feudal aggression.
I have mixed results with it. Those who know to buy up to castle age then buy a castle normally win. Those who don’t get wrecked. It’s no where near as strong as lancer rushing imo
first time I faced it I didn’t know about it, but I was doing lancer rush with mongols and it was absolutely fine.. you just make sure they don’t get donjons up by beating them down with vils!

Why move everyone to gold and a market instead of just having villagers on food like normal?
"Very fast castle time" you say? Oh boy, do I have the strat for you. May I present... the Morley Rush!
Love the video and the BO, thank you!
Morley rush is still the best. No one can tall me otherwise
Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for.
Enjoy
Looks super strong! Time to try it out on the ladder!
It’s a fun one
We did this in AOE2 back in the day. Castle drop Chinese chu and the game was over.

Can you make a maa into eagles build?

Is there a link to add this order to the game overlay?
Patreon or channel memberships :)
Awesome

Wood was due to making siege instead of donjons
This was a good one. I'm not sure what's More fun. The Sicilian Tower Rush or the Persian douche
Lancer rushing!
@@MorleyGames1what's lancer rushing?
@@alg7115 ah you must be new here! :-) it’s trademark build order. Very OP. Mongols 14 minute FC in to steppe lancers
@@MorleyGames1 not that new but I've missed that strat.
@@alg7115 :-) it’s the best. I have an in game build order mod for it
Nice.
What's the name of the on-screen build order mod ? 😮
Created by crafty salamander, link in description below. Comes with guides but i make my own which can be got via patreon or channel memberships
@@MorleyGames1 Thanks!
@@DjFiveCore no problem!
@@MorleyGames1 How do You get it to show the entire dark age with all the steps? I like it better that way 😀
@@DjFiveCore those are ones i made myself :-)
What resources should I sell and buy?
Buy food to make serjeants
This would get whooped by a scout rush

now do the blue poshoru version!
This is it.
@@MorleyGames1 ahh I thought he didn't do lumbercamp...his is even more all in
@@The_ZenTex oh maybe he doesn’t. I came up with the actual build based off of an old one i made for sicilians. But the concept is the same. I just knew he did a fast castle with this timing where as you pudding has a little bit of feudal aggression.
@@MorleyGames1 nice. thanks for the uploads! i enjoy watching them
@@The_ZenTex thanks for watching :)
Sell stone and no lumber get even faster
This doesn’t this sell 100 stone? I can’t remember
its not strong, just a new strat ppl havent adapt to

@@TimWilson89 lancer rushing wrecks it. I came up against it myself today and did a 12:40 lancer rush haha
i think the imbalance of youpudding comes from the Siege rush
