I feel like Hades is just AoMs version of the English. Going bows is so strong and an easy build the hopolites can get two upgrades depending on what gods you pick. The spear bow cyclop manticore combo seems to be awesome. Then end the game with earthquake if they even make it that far

[@AhrisOsman]

Absolutely spot on with this tier list. Been binging all your videos and they can't come out soon enough. Would love to see you do a campaign walkthrough or more gameplay in general. Excellent work 👏🏼

[@Nathan-rt5vj]

Well done, I can see the work you put into this. Incredible to see AOM analyzed through excel as adults now... and kind of funny. When I was playing this as a kid all I cared about was how cool my army looked, which usually meant a couple of every "special unit" (myth, siege, elephants) and lots of spearmen and archers/slingers Lol

[@choomanfoo157]

Wow you busted out the excel sheet, as a person who appreciates that type of clear data, I really enjoyed this video. It really painted the clear comparison between units and gods. I will sub from this video alone, not even watching any of your other videos, yet. I look forward to more of your thoughtful comparisons and tips. Thank you.

[@largemargeog1023]

I was thinking you should do tier lists just to grow your channel, so I’m glad you did one. I’ll watch tier lists on games I don’t even play.

[@thedutchwolf97]

One thing I do feel is being slept on: Hekate's Mythic Renewal also allows your Titans to regen HP, which I believe is the only way to heal a Titan. Also: Being able to spam Son of Osiris as well as having two pharaohs at all times (since Sons of Osiris don't count as pharaohs, a new pharaoh will spawn after conversion), it's now gonna be possible to empower pretty much your entire base. Pretty insane considering Son of Osiris empowerment is stronger than a pharaoh's.

[@marijnvanderperk]

I think in general atlantean are better on larger maps with teams, i love the regen Titan but it just doesn't make a lot of sense with 1v1

[@MrAbgeBrandt]

I like your very chill, calm style. No crazy screaming or hyping up of every thing a god can do. Earned yourself a sub. Keep it up, great work!

[@IamMagicAOM]

I appreciate that!

[@braydon5503]

I think the biggest point for Egypt not feeling great is on the spreadsheet but wasn't really discussed. The training time of their units is a problem because it means your early aggression is just that much later and with weaker units. So you get a delayed early game, which should be your stronger point, and also makes you need that much more infrastructure which reduces the units you put out. Seems a tad backwards.

[@IamMagicAOM]

Great point

[@technoguy1290]

did they nerf egypt? cause in original game their training times were insane

[@TheRealGerman935]

great video dude its nice that you go into depth and explain

[@123ragago567]

Ra I feel has the potential to grow a lot once the game starts to be more "figured out". As you said, aggressive gods come on top for now, but the really fast uptimes with Ra can probably be used for some explosive heroic ages. At my level (not very good) a solid mass of elephant rocks every match unless I get killed in classic age.

[@Deniho210]

I just started to try out Ra and I feel the aoe empower has some huge potential. Sad to hear he is on the lowest tier, but i do feel the main problem with egypt as a whole is how weak the base units are and how late you can start to really train them, at least on my level lol

[@Lucasfly]

We love to see it! Magic plz stream more

[@patrickburke2187]

Freyr is better than Thor in this meta, IMO. Thor’s vill advantage isn’t as powerful as it might initially seem since you’re splitting resources between training vills, researching armory techs, and training enough military units to survive a raid. You can’t really afford to invest in early economy techs if you’re both playing for vill advantage AND trying to have the military to withstand early aggression. Freyr, on the other hand, doesn’t need to sink several hundred resources into armory upgrades that will only marginally improve his human units and give him a few extra dwarves. He doesn’t need to sink as many resources into training military units for raid protection because his Gullinkambi is a great defensive tool. He might be down a few villagers, but he can afford to take those economic techs quicker and with basically no downside. He has a more flexible and robust opening that’s more capable of responding to early aggression and doesn’t really make his economy that much worse. Basically, Thor‘s upside of having one of the best economic bonuses (in theory) is actually not that great in practice because the very act of taking advantage of his free dwarves is actually super expensive, both literally and in terms of opportunity cost.

[@DuBLD33]

the other thing to consider is that some of these gods may not be balanced for 1v1 I'd imagine thor or ra, with an ally to help protect them, would benefit greatly

[@saltytree729]

I think Thor hasnt been figured out yet, i've won a few ranked by turtling with thor, going for a semi fast heroic around the 7-8 minute mark with a HUGE army and more tech, thors late game is also pretty strong with rag utilising the economic advantage. Freyr has the negative of taking such a long time to get to where thor is by 7-8 minutes, and armoury upgrades take forever, seriously you need to build two armours on freyr which seems quite silly, as thats alot of resources i could have for thor. I actually think Freyr has lots of potential but he seems weak as hell in late game compared to loki or thor because freyr simply cant get there in time, enemy units are just way more ahead with better tech, i would rather have the time reduced to 75% and a 25% reduction

[@thorveim1174]

I look at it the other way for Thor: i research upgrades I wanted to get anyway, and get a free economy boost as a bonus. Unless I lose some, I can usually go an entire match swimming in gold training only a single dwarf at the start. Also, a funny thing with Thor is that he has access to all armory upgrades at any age. That means he can turn axemen into very competent siegers two ages early with Burning Pitch

[@MadMalMan]

Its worth mentioning these Tier List assumes a decent level of skill, Atlantean civs eco is far easier to manage so I think that puts them up a tier each at entry points.

[@csguba]

If this was the case then you’d expect the Atlantean overall win rate to be higher, but all three of them are >50%. I agree that their eco is easier to manage but it’s clearly not compensating for their weaker aspects to a degree you could move them up the list.

About Fryer I have notice that the research time whit him that is 150% slow, make you gotta take your time and pay attention to make the improvements if you want to get an upper hand in the combat. This could cost you the game if you take a bad fight and slows his mid to late game to warranty a victory over the S tier civs.

[@stysner4580]

Poseidon so far has felt very good. Fast 2TC with a centaur to contest the map and you can defend all ins, raid hard with 2 stables, fast tech to heroic, or drag the game out with Hephaestus.

How did these greek unit stats pass all the internal playtests with the pros? I thought they were testing for nearly 6 months with a lot of the best players.

[@tqhung169]

Which Greek units are you referring to?

I could start a rant about the greek units... just the fact that the chariot is a heroic unit is more expensive and does not have a multiplier, loses to the toxotes, a classical and cheaper unit...

Vote on your pick! www.youtube.com/@IamMagicAOM/community

[@nicolasgodfraind4287]

I would have the same tier list, but with loki (and maybe freyir) moved in A tier aswell, which means that more than half the gods would be in this tier or S, which is not that bad balance wise actually. Ra, thor and atlanteans being weaker and all the other one being fairly good. Hades would be my n°1 too. He's strong at everything. Good offense, good defense, good late. Heroes not eating on villager production is what make greek so strong atm I think. It's like 2 full villagers between 3:30 & 4:30 compared to the original game, it's a massive buff for their early game.

[@julio85lycos72]

Nice analysis! I do agree. My observation is that most of civs got extra units. But Atlantians and Egyptian did not. So I think the developers may add some extra mortal units to them to bust a bit their versatility. 😊

Hades is bonkers OP, just go for minotaur + archer spam and you win.

[@GARGANTUANMASKEDFISH]

This tierlist unfortunately confirms a lot of suspicions about Ra I've had since the first gameplay beta dropped - he's a fun god but he doesn't doesn't have enough passive compared to the other Major Gods. He almost feels unfinished in his design. The best I've been able to get from him is his Camelry being quite strong through Sobek and Osiris but even then that's a pretty inflexible endgame to shoot for.

[@xDBooN]

How do you feel about all Migdol units being taking extra damage from counter cavalry? To me it feels really bad when you have to wait for heroic, build a production facility for 400 gold and then all your units lose to Prodromos or even Zeus Hoplites. Especially when like you said they have the best support archer, so Spearmen and Axemen don't really work to counter them back either. Maybe that's just my scrub-problem though?

[@IamMagicAOM]

100% agree, esp with the prodromos countering the entire migdol line

[@P4nem___Et___C1rcenses]

Nice, thanks for the tier list and the effort! I think I'd agree with most, not sure if Ra is D tier though. I think in the right hands and with the right strats he can be very strong. Sachmet is a very interesting god regarding upgrades. Catapults in heroic can be a big deal imo. I also think there's a lot of potential with Bastet and the Ra monuments with a Pharaoh on them. 4-5 sphinxes can absolutely cause havoc. This into Sachmet for some nice pressure could be fun. Even if played ordinary, with a few monuments rain can be casted almost continously. With some macro and trading I still see Ra to be very solid, especially since he can go for good barrack units with the upgrades. Edit: Just checked it: With only the classical farm upgrade and rain I got 1.64 food gather rate. On hunt my vills have 0.9. So I think it's still at least a 1.5 multiplier compared with hunt. And it's only 30 favour to recast. And since early farms are usually used with Ptah for Schaduf, you don't really need the favour early on compared to Bastet with some Sphinx raids or such. And the multiplier will only go up on higher ages. All this while the food is "safe* and there's no walking needed compared to switching hunting spots. Yes, we also have to consider the gold cost for the farms, but since we don't really need wood early on we have that additional gold anyways. I mean I could be wrong you're a better player than me, but I still see rain as a very, very good god power.

[@IamMagicAOM]

good points! :)

[@FuncraftVideos]

Pretty sure Freyr is at least B tier, for sure stronger than THOR The boar makes him unassailable for at least some time , the upgrades allow to turtle against greek aggression without losing out on resources and fortress allows to spam decent and fast wood/gold based unit

[@LucidEquinox]

Sky gaia and turmas vs hades had been crazy good. Maybe we'll see it be adapted more but I think gaia is top tier.

[@PegasusRush07]

Fairly accurate list, I would change the order in S tier. I think it is: Odin, Set, Hades Despite the stats website not being entirely reflective of top level play, Odin 56% is absurd. One more thing, you said the Greeks don't have to abuse anything to be solid. However, for Zeus, I think after Minos are rightfully nerfed, he is going to be B tier at best. Zeus has to abuse Minos. His bonuses are kind of shit otherwise. If both your classical myth units become underwhelming, then Zeus loses his identity and his God bonuses. Possy and Hades can deal with raids infinitely better than Zeus. Zeus 2TC play vs aggressive gods is very risky.

[@lespadassin9859]

Ty for the time spent on this video, numbers rocks ! But you must edit more ! :)

[@javaupdates4613]

I cant find one if you have one but you should definitely start a discord. Great community and great insight. Keep it up!

[@spazghetti7204]

Ra really needs the farms to be dropped in price so you can open with say like two farms and still age up on time. Maybe if he could recieve the midgold an age early too because his only decent unit is camel riders drop midgold on farms early then go into camel riders an age earlier. Maybe a good change idk

[@amputechure]

Would love a research tier list. I know that would be quite a lot but some of these are difficult to tell how effective they are.

[@Genrobi]

That’s very similar to how we left off in the titans basically ahah

[@Katos92]

Totally agree with your list. Overall, I think Egyptians are weaker : more difficult to play (much more multi-tasking imo), very weak infantry, strongly reliant on gold mine (less spots than food/wood), no really good godpowers until age4 (except Seth). Even at a higher level where we can expect a more "snowball" strategy with military upgrades, god powers, army compositions, etc. greeks are better

[@Stoildan]

Nice vid bro! Waiting for some gameplay vids 😁

[@kleash]

Awesome tier list. But then one thing I want to say is with Greek their minotaur rush kinda destroys Odin completely.

[@technoguy1290]

in my opinion kornos is S tier. I haven't lost a game against any civ except another atlantean. Kronos time power is really good in getting rid of keeps. the atlantean civ itself is strong cause no myth units can affect you. which negates almost all the greek gods. and his double myth age up gives him some really timing attacks.

I believe there should be new maps, more defensive ones, like black forest in AOE2 for those "defensive" gods to really shine.

I tried really really hard to main Egypt but if you don't win with your God powers it's just GG. Anubites are good but fall of hard fast. Maybe not at the pro level but your army just feels so weak. All your best units come from migdol which is hard to spam for production and all those units are very large making them clunky and hard to get damage saturation. The heavy reliance on Gold makes you mine out so fast you have to push out on the map even tho they are the worst civ for doing so and having very limited good use for wood means it's much more challenging to keep your vils busy. They also have the easiest lose condition of any race. Deny an Egypt player their 2nd gold and they crumble immediately.
