The TRUTH About Alexander the Great in Rise of Kingdoms 2024

[@OmniarchOfficial]

EDIT: For those asking why I use skill damage formation on Liu Che, the reason is simply because my Arch formations have horrible infantry stats. Are you going to take Alexander off the bench in 2024? 🤔 Don't forget to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE for more Rise of Kingdoms content! :)

[@Ubbe3039]

i don't even have him i rather invest on Liu and wait for new infa commander 😅

[@SFSROCKETS]

can you make a video about best season 2 commander pairs?

[@janihaavisto79]

LOL, Eve Chisgule thought you had lost your mind. I am in jumper group, I think I'll invest on Alex stil, some once we get to lvl3 it will take Time that we get Lou Che. And just like that I have a great I'm march

[@ItzIzzyMizzy]

They should really bring S1 and S2 commanders to the medal store, maybe only allowing 10 a day because no one is going to use 690 sculptures to max a commander that released that long ago, but people may spend half of that to max him from 5551. They really are just killing their game by not doing that and since they also removed the chest from Lucerne scrolls now its even harder to want to invest in them

[@OmniarchOfficial]

Agreed, we need more ways to get their sculptures OR a buff that makes them worth investing in again

[@ramos_pinho117]

They will never do that reducing how many sculps you need lilith would had to refund tons of people. A - older player that max him early on. B- and younger accounts that bought daily bundle plus mix of wheel and universals.

[@786empireofrok8]

Yes, we have been begging for that for years to replace aethelflaed sculptures

[@Madao_98]

if they do that then they should remove the possibility of going back to kvk2 imo, new players would get even more fucked

[@ItzIzzyMizzy]

​@@ramos_pinho117 I never said reduce the amount of sculptures. It takes 690 to max a commander, and at 5551 it takes 310 sculptures to max the last skill. If you can get him to 5551 with just the medal store, a lot of people may fork up the last 310 to max him out, changing how the open field looks

[@GolfNation_OnTop]

Tbh the “what’s going on guys, cheers” is the best intro because I always have a drink and cheers as well

[@OmniarchOfficial]

😏 cheers brother 🍻

[@hoplite_hr]

I still use him together with my scipio. Alex primary and Scipio secondary when doing karuak and ceroli. Scipio prime/alex when kvk open-field. I love their marchspeed

[@rezopolis]

It's insane how well versed and fluent in this game you are Omni gg dude cheers 😯

[@OmniarchOfficial]

Thank you man! I try, there’s a lot to keep track of 😅😂

[@786empireofrok8]

I benched my Alex as soon as I got Guan Yu, but I would like to use him again I'm hoping that we get the second Museum buff for Alex soon

[@misterxfinity5759]

Alex’s debuff is crazy good. Definitely seeing him on the field again a lot more now that LC has been released

[@GrowmietheGreen]

I've ventured out as of a few weeks ago, and made the flip to my pairings, as i was running scipio/lc, and guan/alex. Obviously, scipio/lc performed amazingly, but guan/alex not quite as well. While it traded positive when careful, the guan/alex fell fast when focused. So i made the switch, back to guan/scipio, and slapped alex secondary to LC, and threw some nice arch armaments on it, and im so glad i did. LC/Alex is performing incredibly, trading nearly as well in the mb as scipio/LC, and the guan/scipio is trading far better than guan/scipio, all while being a bit tankier. LC/Alex work so well together, i see myself ignoring gorgo, and running these pairs in the future, at least until we see what the next inf release has in store. Not a bad time to be an inf main 😊 Thanks for the awesome content, bro!! This was a great evaluation, and i can confirm confidently, this is a great pair 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

[@CancerCleric]

I still use Alex in SoC. Alex CJ was my third favorite march last kvk (infantry only), and held up when I had to drop to only 3 field marches.

[@timm2711]

Great content! I’m in an imp kvk and Liu Alex was my best march. The instant proc in the big murderballs was money. Also tried Liu Freddy and fwiw it did well but not as good as Liu Alex 😅.

[@OmniarchOfficial]

I'm hearing this exact thing from many players tbh which is why I wanted to cover the synergy in detail!

[@tiagofernandes5455]

Really great video brother! Alex is one of my favorites, so if he still rocks im happy 😁 Knowing that you said normal attack boost is better than attack on general for Liu Che, what about Pyrus? Liu Che/Pyrus seems amazing on paper

[@WaterMelon-Cat]

I am pretty sure that Alex as well as Charles get the bonus effects of the shields (not the damage absorption) for the entire duration, aka Alex gets defence for the four seconds regardless of if his shield actually lasts

[@dimimatheas230]

I also believe this is correct I remember testing it ages ago and by memory this is what I noticed.

[@juliens.2616]

You sir are correct

[@julianhairston5411]

I've tried liu che with alex and scipio, but my best liu che pair is still liu che\Pyrrhus. I plan to use gorgo\alex for next kvk to see how they perform. Surprisingly, Guan Yu\ Martel (expert and relic) has been a really good march. I stopped using Guan because he's glass and tried different pairs with him, and Martel allows him to stay on the field and gives him the 20% march speed. I'm waiting for the shield armament I heard was coming.

[@jasonjones8849]

Always keeping us updated. Thanks😊 I still use Alex with Guan as well. They work great together.

[@OmniarchOfficial]

Nice! Glad it's still working for you! :)

[@jasonjones8849]

Thank you for breaking down the pros and cons of this combo. I and probably alot of others don't understand the details when put together. And the details really matter.

[@jasonjones8849]

Maybe you can do some (breaking down combos) and are they really that good together?Videos...... Your very good at helping us understand what is happening when pair's are together. I ❤ the new calvary vid..... I am really considering switching to calvary now. 😮 Infintry has been good to me though.

[@achilles7074]

yeah, I think i will stick with that as well, since usually one inf march is in a garrison anytways, makes it easier to keep scipio and liu on the field longer for more damage while guan-alex can go reinforce things

[@anonymous-ud6vo]

Thanks for the advice. I was planning on doing Liu Che, Alex anyway as my second infantry march.

[@japarwu1565]

hey omniarch nice content as always, in-depth explanation and analysis! Would it be possible if you made a video about F2P facing KVK 1? Like from the troops specialization perspective lets say cavalry, as we all know cavalry for kvk 1for F2P is bad. The only choice is only infantry for F2P, I thought about how cavalry can be viable for kvk 1 for F2P and I think Aeth Suntzu with cavalry troops + leadership special talented purple cavaly gear would be best (can be dismantled later for kvk 3). Aeth have huge Debuff and dmg boost if expertised + suntzu have dmg reduction and skill dmg + rage generator (suntzu actually better than baibars for secondary even if we play cavalry). Aeth debuff pops + suntzu skill pops both hit 5 targets the playstyle is hit & run (aeth talent would be focusing all on march speed so can get in and out (total of 39% move speed) the details would be Leadership talent go straight to Strategic Prowess full, Thoroughbreds full and Cage of Thorns lvl 1. I honestly think this is better than pelagius baibars or baibars aeth or baibars suntzu (F2P need to play hit & run, standing there getting hit is not an option). Could you please run the battle simulator for this kind of build (againts mina caocao, bjorn suntzu, herman kusunoki, baibars aeth or any KVK 1 meta)? I know the battle simulator can only show 1 v 1 result but if the difference is not that huge doesn't that mean it will work out great on open field with hit & run playstyle? Thank you :D

[@WaleAdeniran]

Great vid. I was using the 2 march Inf combos like you suggested but noticed their skill cycles take longer. Potential 8-10 turns for Lu/Alex vs 6 or under turns with a Skill or Support tree primary Comm. & I think, in a game where 1st to proc gains a huge advantage, this should also be considered. But great vid Omni. Thanks for making it

[@Mo7amedR4madan]

I love watching your videos because they are full of positive analysis, and they are also approximately half an hour long, which is why I enjoy them. Thank you. Keep going.

[@oklol7616]

3:22 To be fair, Richard was probably the best commander at the time and was used by pretty much everyone.

[@OmniarchOfficial]

Ummmmmmmmm I guess so, definitely in kvk1 but in kvk2 I'm not super sure. You could be right about that.

[@oklol7616]

@@OmniarchOfficial At the time, it Richard+Charles was an immortal march that was the absolute meta of the game, it was still at it’s early stage. When Alex came out Alex+Richard was the best march

[@op4083]

the shield effect from Alex gonna proc the "Patronage" inscription which gave you 2% all damage. I'm still thinking whether to use LC with Alex or Gorgo. haha

[@pokerchannel6991]

Here is the math, using the the first 9 turns as a metric. Why the first 9 turns? The first 9 turns is before anyone has fired their skill. So, here it goes: In the first 9 critical turns, Alex has a 70% chance of proc'ing if you use Liu. Liu has an extra normal attack. Due to that extra attack, Alex's chances of proc jumps from 60% chance to 70% chance of proc'ing in the first 9 turns.

[@XanderROK]

I use LC Alex with very subpar gear but I was surprised with the trade. My LC was popping off, I'm glad I invested in him to get Alex off the bench 😊

@omniarch this video is awesome I’m going to KvK 3! I left the game for a year come back and I am behind with commanders but I have many Gold Heads now so I was going to get one infantry and one Calvary expertise but my account is infantry main I have expertise Alexander and Guan 5552 so I was thinking getting Scipio Prime and a Nevsky (my Cavalry equipment is really bad) so I was thinking of getting luí as well and run Scipio Luí and Guan Alex but then I would not have for Nesky so I Decided just to go for a Scipio and no luí anyways that just a background on my account

Why do I watch these RoK guides when I haven't played in a year+? Because it's Omni! Your other channel is great too. Keep it up!

@@OmniarchOfficial yup it helps but I don’t have to fight in dot mode so I can see those secondaries 😈

[@dispalesco]

hi, thanks for another great video from you. I really like how you go deep into the explanation and make so called " outdated " commanders still useable. Mostly there are videos which are explaining why to get all the new commanders , which makes imo F2P players feel as if they can not have an impact anymore, but videos like this one shows that you can have an impact and also are able to have good commander pairings which are not meta, but you can still have a lot of fun in the game even without being a P2P. Thanks for this. Much appreciated. Great video from you. Only thing you could have mentioned that Alex is a commander which you can get relativly easy ( maybe i missed it ). But please do not get me wrong no critizm at all, i am picking for small things here ;-)

[@user-hu3jl8pp2o]

Please do a video on Liu Che/Pyrrhus synergy as arguably the best top inf pairing for Liu Che. I've been seeing some crazy reports with this pair and it seems to be the most underrated pairing in the game right now.

[@razev]

Awesome video.. learnt some really good info about Alex skill❤

[@OmniarchOfficial]

Glad to help! :)

[@beauduboise8405]

Pyhrrus.... +20% constant normal dmg, and +20% normal dmg upon triggering primary skill. Higher normal dmg buff than any potential pair other than Gorgo.

[@jeffkristoffercagadas3374]

I have a good test to prove that 2nd skill of Alex is working..208k vs 210k on liu/alex vs zhug/boudica

[@rok4fun922]

I use Liu/alex last kvk and they served me well with around 8m kills out of 31m i made in that kvk. But... Liu/alex only good if you bring multiple marches, for single troop battle like altar, scipio/liu still the best imo

[@wassup5793]

make the set helmet or if you can kvk helmet and hoap cloak first. The legendary weapon should be the last that you want to craft for your infantry march. The blue shield is what you want until you have crafted all the other legendary gears. Kvk crystal tech serves you enough attack bonuses.
