Glad we just had Master of Arena and a bunch of associated arena content. That means the next batch of it is now as far away on the calendar as possible.
best comment ive seen in a while 11
@@HeraAgeofEmpires2 It is?
Does anyone else skip right to the end to see the full list and then come back to watch Hera talk about specific civs?

And that sense of quilt to see the full list before watching entire video but its Just too hard to resist
all the time :D

Let’s go!!! Thanks for the tier list Hera! Can’t wait for Arabia tier list!
I think it would be awesome to have one for team game as well, or at least a condensed for of it (just an idea)
Love the Hera Tier lists!
Keep up this content Hera 💪🏻 your details with every civ is great dont listen to the skippers
Always hyped when I see you uploading a new tier list! What do you think is the toughest, most one sided 1v1 matchup on arena? Maybe Incas vs Goths or Goths vs Mayans?
Best screen layout so far, very nice
Thanks for the vid sir. Nice vid layout too
I think there should be an arena version with a few boars in the middle (from 2 to 5). This way initial light cav would also fight for boars, making you decide between a faster boom by getting the boars or an early map control by letting your light cav stay in the map
Arena removes the risk Cuman players take by going fast Town Center. They also have faster scouts and can push early with rams. Seriously good civ in Arena.
Faster doesn't matter much if the opponent has all that extra food from not running two TCs. Cumans get an eco lead but tend to not get relics unless the map gen is balls.
@@laurie1183By the time the Cuman player reaches Castle Age the res difference between them and the opponent is insane (One has already a 20 eco lead that already paid off, the other one is starting to get rolling).
And is very hard to scout the Cuman player on top of that because of the faster scout.
Relic control doesn't even matter much for Cumans because their post-imp is atrocious
I've started playing AoE2DE only recently and have mostly been playing Huns in Arena. xD Of course, since this is low elo (I'm at around 725 now) there's probably lots of other things I need to worry about first, before thinking of taking an optimized civ.
I drop a comment because it doesn't cost anything and it helps the channel a lot. Thanks for the great content!!
Condo was here live for 5 minutes, and now i'm seeing all the video in the meantime i travelling to reach the gathering of my age2clans 🎉
Several civ placements I don’t agree with this time (Incas, Koreans, Dravidians just to name a few) but many good insights, nice video !
Where would you put Koreans?
Could you please make a video ft. best civ duos for team games, that would be very interesting, there are lots of guys like myself playing only team games.
This is what about Hera that other pros are lacking. He listens and deilivers.
I think Saracens are at least B tier. The market bonus allows for fairly fast castle booms and gold intensive units, and they have an amazing late game with siege onager, all monk techs, BBC, hand cannoneer, arbalest, hussar, bulky camels, and mamluks are like kamayuks where they kill pretty much everything in melee. They're definitely on the slower side and hard to play, but they can dominate most calvary and infantry civs. Id say their hardest matchups are Britons/Koreans because of the range. They can match other archer/siege civs like Ethiopians or Mayans.
Celts make them cry.
@@kenc00l Have you ever tried using BBC?
Ah yes, shawarma riders, the best unit
We need CL's tier list on this.
yoo bro i been doing ai matches with my friend 2v2 or online matches could you do an updated 2v2 arabia civs!? love watching your videos.
Cumans good at something in the 1v1 meta lesgo
Hello Hera! I'm so impressed to your tutorial video but our community in Vietnam, almost people can't understand English, so can I reupload your video with Vietsub?
I don't agree with Byzantines being so low. They have good monks, bbcs, strong castles, cheaper imp and almost everything in imp + cheap trash
It feels in that list some civs have very controversial positions. Byzantines deserve to be about top 12. Also that Poles behind Cumans and Incas is very confusing.
I really believe sarracens are so powerful… decent archers, great hp camels, great siege, market helps with eco a lot, cheap market also so less wood to FC, and mameluks are just broken. Also archer rush… I dunno to me those are crazy
Their market bonus is tricky for new players to use, however. They do have a very wide tech tree with full blacksmiths to take advantage of.
@@martytu20 blacksmith full, and on regard of noob market abuse…. I dunno we noob are pretty bad at macro so turning 2k wood into gold is soooo useful :D
Will Hera start favoring Arena on the ladder in order to put all this into practice? :P
Shwarma rider is my fav
Tremendo Gerado sabeeeeeeeeeee
I just started playing AoE2 and decided to main Bohemians but i lose games because im generally confused how to make an economy work and don't know how to counter units like infantry (sword line) [ I am doing fast castle -> Castle rush and Hussite Wagon push] Any tips guys? ( Also If you can provide a step by step strategy for me to following i would very much appreciate it! )
Two TC cumans tends to put you behind on the relic rush and isn't great long term. Has too many downsides to be S tier.
Haven’t watch the video yet but I’m gonna call it ! Turks number 1 . Best fast imp in the game and crazy good castle drop, also the fact they got free scout line upgrade mean you should be able to kill enemy scout and get map control ( and relics ) if the opponent doesn’t commit early castle age .
Did you not play masters of arena?
hera i never found out why you didn't play in masters of arena 7
Hera, where do you think you rank in 1v1 Arena compared to other top players?
idk prolly pretty high with the right preparation, played it a bunch in big tourneys
@@HeraAgeofEmpires2 we'd love to see it.
I thought the only civ that doesn't get access to monks is the Macedonians in AOE1 (Return of Rome)
If folwarks get ability to garrison villagers they would be S 🙌🏻
This could make them more easy to use in the Arabia but wouldnt change the Arena to be fair
I would almost pay to see a vid called how to win against fast imp turks.
Its usually mini boom into mass knights
No HC for Vietnamese. I thought they had them for the longest time, but wishful thinking.
I think Vietnamese are another civ thats strong at high elo. SotL also backs that up.
Their weakness is building HP, missing Blast Furnace and redemption. Other than that they are like the Incas in being a jack of all trades. I think Inca, Vietnamese and Byzantine are similar for different reasons.
I still feel like bohemians are a whole level above aztecs and bengalis.
I want to see Nomad civs tier list. Does Spain still S tier?
Since the construction speed bonus no longer applies to the first TC, they've fallen off quite hard. The FC into conq is still pretty good, but that's all they got and it's no where near as potent without the quick start.
Every civ dropped a lot without the first tc bonus, malians and persians are also meh, but civs like dravidians or lithuanians are lit
Can you share a video about how to play against Turks? i struggle against both castle drop janisseries and fast imp strategies
After the nerf the tC just beats the jans. Just boom vs castle drop.
Tc doesnt range them, wot are u talking about
@@erwinwendler4621 yeah but they only have 1 range on it. So you just leave the side they're on and keep farming and chopping til you drop a castle or mass skirms. You can get caught out if they cut you off stone and wood, but backing a mangonel behind does the trick after the nerf. Even monks are worthwhile now.
Did you consider the castle age jannie nerf?
Yep
Putting Persians down in D tier makes it even more clear you don't fully appreciate the power of the Persian militia line.
can meso do eagle and monk instead of light cav?
they do that, but its not as good as light cav monk usually
Why is that one guy going in the chat that Incas suck on Arena? In MOA Incas were the best civ. Their winrate was third best: over 70% and from civs that were played over 30 times in the tournament they had the highest win rate by a huge margin. Next one was Ethiopians with 57%.
As an absolute noob I got above 1000 ELO with Turks fast imp, that strategy absolutely slaughters you if you're not prepared
Best civs to counter romans on arabia?
Any strong archer rush civ is pry the best bet.
AN ARENA TIER LIST??????? WITH LIVE TWITCH CHAT??????
I got no notes
what is ranking for romans?
He mentions them at the end, minute 37:15 Somewhere in the top of B or bottom of A Tier, Hera says.
HI CHAT :D
SS: banning arena
I thought that Arena was about defense. Aztecs defense is paltry. Why rate them so high? Also do Cumans/Goths not cheat with starting with Stone Walls, which they lack?
arena is map control
@@HeraAgeofEmpires2 Thank you for your clarifying response. I appreciate it. 🙂
Aztecs have faster relics
WHY ARE GOTHS ALWAYS C OR D TIER :(
because they are 1 trick pony civ and easy to counter :(
Because they're very strong at low ELO, but at high ELO they're easily countered. So they are unlikely to get heavily buffed.
Cause Goth are a cheap infantry civ, not a strong infantry civ. You can sit behind your walls with some mangos and a blob of archers in stand ground and wait for the Rapture while Goth keep spamming cheap units.
As heavily critical as I am of the dev team, I will give them credit where its due- The Chinese nerf was the correct way to handle it, and the goth hunt bonus was the best possible route to give thema boost without overwhelming power.
But, every time they use a subtle hand touch that makes it appear they have mastered their knowledge of the game, that little bit of hope is met with being violently and repeatedly dashed on the rocks of a "5% faster gathering, building by villlagers" flat Romans bonus. Idk if new civs are given to the newest interns or they let Make-A-Wish kids do it as a tax writeoff? They just cant seem to make a new civ reasonable anymore.
Dravidians is the 4th highest picked civ in MOA. They have won 13 games out of 35 in MOA which is the lowest among all civs that have 30+ games.
yeah i know about that
@@HeraAgeofEmpires2 Interesting that you still have put Dravidians that high.
Chinese got deleted lol
Its not about the nerf, its their lack of late imp options. They die to even onager with siege engineers
Lol reading the chat is so funny. People are defending trash civs and bashing the top ones. Lotta low elo legends in the chat
Bro didn’t even play in the tourney and still puts this out. Basically a new form of BM. You have been reported for griefing bro, and they take reports seriously 11
İ m only 1000 elo. Hera knows this game inside and out, no doubt. İ kinda disagree with him about cumans. First of all cumans 2 tc boom means give up all the relics. Secondly, i think cumans are weak against 1 tc monk , siege push.
Their plan is to win in late Castle/early Imp at best, so fighting for the relics isn't their no.1 priority I think (Even if it was their lategame comps suck)
I can see that, but I think that since the 2TC eco is so good anyways they can afford to take it if scouted (I could see 2 stables scouts working to break it)
Petition to buff Goths so they can finally arrive at A tier.
Signed.
you dont even play arena
Play new age stop using old strats, you have Turks as top S tier.
