It’d be great if you made these for all the tribes. Great work as always

Exactly!

If u choose bardur, u will have 4 million power

[@tomzitiger]

Is this an ROK ad tf?

[@petervaindrakh77]

Exactly

[@driproomate1129]

I will say it like when its an actual ad: You see, You made a mistake You shouldve chose the Bardur civillization, It gives 20% faster resource gaining boost and your economy can thrive easily because of the 15% Building boost.

[@AveragePinwormEnjoyer]

Love the video. The extra effort into editing doesn't go unnoticed.

[@jtotheb5440]

great editing and very helpful tips, even in under 10min, great job!

[@csantoro7738]

Let's go man! Great video, really broke everything down and made it easier to understand. Much better than a Google document, lol.

[@SemKeemink]

I really love what you did with the editing this video! You have become much better

[@chicagotypewriter2094]

Man Bardur was so much more broken before the tree nerf! I remember spawns with all trees & like 7 animals alone! Sawmills galore

[@neutralino1905]

Learned a thing or two. I also love the animations at 1:59.

[@itzalyssa.]

Great video for both new and experienced players as usual GullYY, thanks so much for the wonderful content :)

[@MillsFirst]

Great video concept, would like 1 with Elyrion next if possible… thanks!

[@arthurbossard8309]

Really nice concept, I'd love to see the same with Elyrion or Yadakk :)

[@MDM2-MDMX]

Yes those are both hard but cool tribes! Would love to learn how to use them efficiently

[@filiphofinghoff3753]

Watching those videos really put me in my happy place

[@stevenschiro1838]

Great video as always. AS a challenge run... is there a way to make mindbenders work? Ex only mindbenders, or something like that? On that theme, what's more difficult? only mindbenders, only cloaks, only catapults, etc (only defenders, lol). Can you beat the game once with any type of a single unit?

[@ultatack6020]

There is an inherent problem to this that is the fact that you start out with a warrior regardless, with few exceptions being Hoodrick, Vengir and Oumaji. Interestingly enough, the respective units of those 3 tribes are also among the most versatile in the game, and have the greatest chance of winning by themselves.

[@yooooooooooooooo696]

mindbenders are really strong in low elo gameplay because we dont care about getting vision

[@SantaquinBacon]

@@ultatack6020riders only with oumaji could actually be an interesting challenge

[@seanmurphy6541]

Mindbenders can be used in late game while using Ai-Mo in 1v1 with larger maps. The philosophy tech reduces all other tech cost for the rest of the game. So invest in the tech as early as possible, and then only make a mindbender behind a giant or next to water. Against good players you won’t be stealing units, but using them to heal/get as much value out of your giants and ships as possible

[@timytumper]

You should do a more complicated tribe next, like aquarion or ai-mo! Love the channel

[@willywalter6366]

Wow 👍🏻😍 coolest Video so far - one can see how much work you put in it! Great work - love it ❤

[@AllanahWolfers]

I definitely need to employ Bardur more going forward. Super cool vid, thanks

[@jakubsloka8589]

I would love a series wirh each tribu. With strong and weak points. Basic strategy and tech alternatives.

[@drewcotterill7078]

I watched this video yesterday, and today me and my friend both played Bardur against each other, and I destroyed him by using mathematics to make a wall of giants.

[@wildman4709]

Loved the vid! My fav tribe is yadakk and I would love to see a how to yadakk video!

[@Kyota27]

the man is back with another video

[@ahmedmql]

Great video editing dude!

[@Eraqon]

Great video :) Thanks a lot!

[@cobystephens5930]

Could you make video guides like this for all four starting races? This was super helpful!

[@maxzhang1555]

Epic video as always

[@matthijspouwels]

Love the video! I like to rush markets because it gives you such a big econemy advantage. You need mathematic and roads anyways to get to it so you're pretty much there already. What is your take on this? I've been using it a lot on large maps very sucesfully but I'm just trying out the smaller maps rn.

[@atreeseedling]

This is Bardur only household fr

[@michakoodziej5741]

Great video! Waiting for videos about any alternatives to Bardur: Imperius, Kickoo ?

[@matejjirout7347]

Great video!

[@SuperBigChimp]

Would love to see how high level players use Polaris, fun tribe with interesting units

[@SantaquinBacon]

I recently got obliterated in a 1v1 by a 1700 elo Polaris player… I’d love to see how they play too

[@frozensalt6174]

Easy just spam gaamis and frost archers and battle ships... Frost archers to freeze,gaamis for freeze and damage and battle ship(or whatever it was called) for damage...those 3 units are usually most used..since the best way to deal something is to stun in from doing anything especially if u freeze a unit on a city which means they can't move it to train a stronger unit forcing them to try to use their stars to make giants

[@xSpizon_]

​@@SantaquinBaconas Polaris, I usually get the ice bank asap, and upgrade my capital so i can get an early gaami. After that, I spam ice archers as a supporting fire for my gaami and then spam battle sleds 3 turns after. I usually train 3 ice archers for the gaami support, it's more than enough to lock opponents down.

Bardur is the equivalent of having 20 million power in rise of kingdoms

[@MemePiano69]

Most original comment

[@turtlesandmoreturtles]

Well, I have 50 million power. I played cyamanti on a drylands map. Cyamanti has the shaman troop which boosts nearby troops, making them do extra damage. I easily conquered my rivals. Get rise of kingdoms today.

[@iambaconeer]

@@turtlesandmoreturtles jokes on you I have the counter video made by gullyy

[@whitelock1258]

​@@iambaconeerWhat?! But how did you get such power?!

[@iambaconeer]

@@whitelock1258 it’s simple I used the code “ligma” to get 10 free legendary tribes then used them to get 100 million power

[@melissaericks1233]

[@gogagoga1742]

Can you make kickoo or imerius guide next, please?

[@bibbi1558]

great video

[@rhinocraft2594]

Great video

[@dawsoncicora2163]

How does mathematics lead to more giants? Does it have something to do with the sawmill?

[@GullYYGamer]

Indeed, sawmills give one population for each lumber hut in a one tile radius around it

[@crewex-br4cy]

Do you offer coachinglessons?

[@Recklesscharge]

In my opinion cynatti is hands down the best although it cant upgrade capital turn 0 fungi will let it upgrade very quickly and combined with hexapids you are unstoppable

[@tencents]

Hey Gully, nice video! I was wondering if you could make a video on advanced troop placement/arrangement? As I play, I often find my archers slowly creeping towards the attack ranges of enemies, or wonder if I can hit an enemy unit using my rider and roads, but am unsure if it's possible/what the most optimal road placement might be. Thanks!

[@frozensalt6174]

I believe he already did that in a vid not so long ago..

[@SpartanStick]

Can you do imperious next?

[@balazsmarton03]

Hey man, have you considered streaming maybe? I could watch you play matches while commentating them for hours. Then you could upload them (uncut even) to youtube. Just a thought...

[@miyabera9103]

Are you planning to make a tournament?

[@Hastey08]

I know Bardur is the strongest but how do Kickoo compare as I thought that once you get customs houses down you can get a stronger econmy. Also how do Eleryon compare as I think they a niche but have a strong super unit and the navalon.

[@friedpotato184]

I need some tips for my situation, So earlier, I allied with Xin-xin, We defeated imperius together, and for some reason, He turned against me, Since most of my naval force was deep in now colonized Xin, It was quickly obliterated, Now my empire is being defeated. What do i do

[@TYBROCK8]

Hey Gully can you tell me how to get multiplayer to work or Rather how to get matches with other people

[@adrianwong69]

Please do a tutorial video on cymanti and elyrion as well!

[@АртёмТор-к2ю]

Are they the strongest tribe with or without special tribes mind?

[@jaceemegatron]

lovely

[@firespewers]

Can you do this with oumanji??

[@Ragequitter034]

He deserve 100k+

[@yacobengland2799]

I still don’t think the non-special tribes are unique enough. It would be really cool to see EVERY tribe have a unique super unit.

[@everythingpizzaandknuckles6268]

This editing is ambitious and it paid off so well 🫶

[@pavelnovak4797]

Excellent, so new players when they see this video will automatically play as bardur and there will be no tribe diversity in multiplayer. Good job GullYY! You should make a video on how to play weaker tribes instead...

[@fulopkardos2590]

Please make a yadakk guide next

[@avnerzyngier1848]

I started with bardur , with a 10000% Bost in economics , That is why I have 10000000 of power .

[@monstertruck4694]

Luke, I am your Bardur

[@notnewshoes1741]

make one with Cymanti

[@isdere]

The game is getting popular in Japan, GullYY perhaps consider play against a Japanese utuber?

[@victorcairns4207]

Why is upgrading youre city on the first go the optimal move over another warrior? you allow yourself to capture another city a turn quicker, and you can upgrade your city in the next turn. Surely in the long run, having another city is better than a upgraded capital one move earlier?

[@nathanramage1275]

I main Imperius, not for any stat reason I just like the look, and I usually buy hunting early on. Also, most of my games i end up the "sleeping giant", slowly coming to my full potential, and, since ,i usually play against many AI opponents, end up fighting multi front wars. Sometimes i get lucky with a corner spawn so I can expand centerwise, sometimes i get sandwiched between to aggressive tribes, and, because of my slow build-up, can ruins games.

[@DaquavisHater]

GullYY if u see this message pls do this idea use only tribes that had skins only no special tribes

[@fork-rn3541]

You should make a video on how to counter bardur for people who don’t play them

[@jaceemegatron]

jubly

[@frozensalt6174]

Now that you talked about the strongest tribe how about the weakest now

[@gicking3898]

I don't get how using mathematics gets lots of giants. I'm new, but noticed you get giants when you just keep getting lots of stars for the city....how does mathematics do that?

[@tf9956]

Short answer: lumber huts.

[@Ridz_One]

This game took a long time to finish,(approximately 3 days, ±25 hours of discussions/meetings on problems, economic development, war issues, and relations between countries, and ±37 hours of gameplay) because I played with 4 other friends and competed against each other politically like the president 😂

[@Summoner4.0]

If I'm gonna fight on land. I'll make a knight army. If I'm gonna fight on sea. I'll make a giant fleet

Bardur propaganda

[@CymantiShaman-f6n]

Bardur may be strong, but I believe WE outclass them

[@bobbytemple9346]

This sounds strong for dryland but on others it sounds like it would be a weaker one
