INSANE Hades Cyclops Rush Build Order to DOMINATE in Age of Mythology Retold

[@jh3115]

A month old and still amazing. Found your video recently and after some practice I’m on a 9 game win steak. GG

[@MorleyGames1]

@@jh3115 that’s awesome! It took a slight nerf here and there with patches but glad it’s still working well!

[@TheSrikanp]

This is a great build. And fun too with all the cyclops. Thanks for this. Tried one match on ranked against hades mirror and worked well

[@MorleyGames1]

@@TheSrikanp glad it worked for you :)

[@pandalf3802]

Thanks for the guide ! I was waiting for the build order to try it out myself and now I am on a 11 winstreak in 1v1 ranks and still counting

[@MorleyGames1]

Hahaha that’s amazing!!!

[@sarahsa9657]

Was waiting anxiously for this build order. Thank you for the content! Please do one build with Poseidon cavalry/centaur?

[@MorleyGames1]

@@sarahsa9657 absolutely! Will be doing some norse and egypt builds first though as i dont have any for them yet. Hope you enjoy this one :-)

[@GeorgiaGuidestoned]

Centaur doesn’t have the crush damage the cyclops does would be good for raiding but not taking tc

[@christiandavis3091]

Big W video - Thanks for getting this out after update!

[@MorleyGames1]

No problem!

[@benwazeh]

Thanks a lot mate ! Looking forward to try this on the ladder❤

[@MorleyGames1]

Enjoy! It’s a fun one but i expect it can be tough against norse and egyptians but will punish any civ that’s going for a 2 TC play

[@Buttersman]

Always a big fan of a good Hades cyclops rush! Slight optimization 6:30 go to the chickens in base before berries, slightly better gather rate. Hunt>Chickens>Berries

[@MorleyGames1]

Ah yes, good point! Thank you. Have had a lot of fun with this build.

[@herotalib9556]

Nice build order! Just started doing it (not doing it perfectly) and good enough to win games. I am doing a more passive approach though. Not going all in and going more eco since hades late game is soo good.

[@TheObsidianArchives]

What would you recommend when on water maps? I believe there must be a build order that can maximise the fishing boats?

[@swisspikeman8290]

Thanks for this!

[@MorleyGames1]

No problem!

[@juanfisi]

Seems fun, I usually do a fast herebus anyway so It could be worth a shot, I need a good build to put pressure early game so its perfect.

Thank you :)

Nice

Enjoy!

[@TehKeisa]

What would you transition into if you can not kill your opponent?

[@MorleyGames1]

It depends what you’re up against really but you’d probably need hoplites.

[@LeonJergovic]

Do you think this will get nered?

[@MorleyGames1]

Probably. They were quick to nerf minotaur

[@thedawgden]

I am able to consistently hit the temple on time bit can never get enough wood to get Erebus at 3min. What could i be doing wrong?

[@MorleyGames1]

Are you far off the wood count? I think 3:00 is a rough timing, could be 3:05

[@MorleyGames1]

If you are way off, are you making too many houses? Or on multiple food sources with 2 granaries? I use the exact same archaic build order with the hades minotaur rush video and it works nicely there too

[@thedawgden]

I think what I noticed is I'm not building a second log collection building near the wood. I need to test it out and see if that's it. Thanks for the reply! I love the channel!

[@bachabomba1856]

are you using force drop to get the last bit of wood?

[@matsu11177]

can u make one with norse gods?

[@MorleyGames1]

Yes, was working on a loki build last night :)

[@Rokko-ns3vs]

how can I counter this with Thor?
