Thanks and GG fellow Delhi enjoyer. Unusual to play cav only - but also unusual to build that many LBs just due to an anticipated counter. :D Just wanted to drop a comment to support. :)

💯more horsies could have been a problem

[@tonyw5475]

GG. Keep drop forward is always tough for me to try. Nice job

[@corycosta6257]

@@tonyw5475 much easier when you have the military advantage, can really help end the game. It can go down quick if you can’t protect it out of position though. High risk/reward.

[@saifakib8346]

Great video. Thanks for the upload.

[@corycosta6257]

Appreciate that! I’ll try to keep ‘em coming.

Nice review. Makes me want to play delhi again. What rank are you right now? Do you use the "select all economic buildings" and "select all technology buildings" hotkeys? Makes aging up as delhi easy (together with tab to cycle through mill, lumber camp etc). Even queues up techs in both blacksmits.

@@OptimusCrime4444 D3 so far current season(19 games), sitting at 1455 ELO currently. Sometimes I use the eco hotkey and select my first eco buildings if I remember, but later in the game it’s hard to tell if I’m on one in the mosque influence once I’ve moved out on the map, but I’m usually pretty good about it.

Learning a lot from watching you. I don’t understand why he never really tried to counter your cavalry with pikeman

[@corycosta6257]

Yeah, bit of a curious decision. Kind of a “who blinks first” situation. He must’ve assumed I’d go spears first and went archers. But if I switch to spears I lose mobility.

[@dreaming_gladchenko]

strange bud, he need spears not king remake hmmmm

[@corycosta6257]

Right. I think he was assuming I’d make the spears, so he went longbows, which weren’t very effective.
