Servants aren't scouts, actually. They're healers.
This channel is spirit of the law but for AoM.
Don't insult my boy sotl
Literally my first instinct after discovering this channel.
When I play Norse, Kraken is often a complete game-changer for me at sea. I'll have completely lost the entire battle at sea, build on more dock, get heroic to get a free Kraken, spawn another, and then turn the entire situation around, I've done this a couple of times in PvP 1600+. It's an incredibly powerful myth unit. I think it does better as an army (or just a group of two) than most other myth units because of it's instant kill, and Greek's Scylia has to share kills (meaning less heads) which means is less good in pack: it's better suited in a lone wolf situation. All I care about is killing ships, and it's the only one with a Ship instant-kill.
The kraken is a good boi, agreed
The tricky with the Scylla is to find some way to heal it up. Which is a lot easier said then done. But if you somehow has a way to heal it up then it become really nasty.
I do agree that the Kraken is very powerful. It can easily give you dominance at see. And once you have that you can deny your opponent.
@@Cythil Play EE, Greeks get the dedicated healer 'Hero Hippocrates'!
@@devangnivatkar2649 EE?
@@Cythil Extended Edition, the Steam version
Nice just found the series and now I get a new upload.
yeah xD first one in like 5 months
Wups, wrong channel but thanks :)
Me too!!!!!!
Same!
The last time I played a water map I played with the greece, I had a skylla with 5 heads, which I kept healing, bjt then one eel swooped in and killed it in like 3-5 Hits.
I was devastated.
By "Eel" do you mean the green Norse water dragon which has a spitting / spraying attack.
Me ( looking at Jormundgandr ): I don't want an eel, I WANT A WORLD SERPENT !!!
He smol
lol
Thanks for uploading these bro!
You're welcome :)
This guy's like the Spirit of the Law for AOM.
The Leviathan can garrison units like a transport ship. I know it doesn't have an impact in direct combat on water, but I would have liked to see you discuss it or at least acknowledge it in passing. That's my only criticism though, great vid and I really enjoy these AoM videos!
3:48
Great video! :D
I love this series, just a suggestion, but can you get more in detail, like showing fights between the units, make it like a tournament or something, and talk about the units in general more, some of us havent played this game for a long time and we forgot many mechanics and units
Thats probably while I'll do seperate specific videos
Dude I love your videos, don't know why algorithms pop you up
pop you up as in show up? Because that's what happens when u watch a few videos of a single creator :P
Your AoM content is continually good, I always find myself coming back to these videos. Would you ever consider doing something like this or your other myth unit videos for the Return of the Gods Aztec MU at some point? I’ve been running my own tests and I’d be interest to hear your thoughts
I have played a bit recently but have not considered to make any videos yet :(
@@Nexotic0 No worries, I honestly just recommend it even if you don’t have a desire to make content with it, the Aztecs are super fleshed out and are arguably more smoothly implemented than the Chinese. Feels like a whole new expansion
I never knew the Azure Dragon could levitate over water - thought he was strictly a land unit while the Dragon Turtle was his naval counterpart.
I wish the Azure Dragon was restricted to land because that defeats the purpose of the Dragon Turtle in my opinion.
Wonderful videos. Please also compare human units as well if you can. Thank you.
I will ;)
i had no idea you were an AOM player as well as RS :)
Now you do ^^
Man'o'war have 15 range ! Same for Jormund but 20. it isn't supposed to tank directly but more to kite. And also dont forget than ranged units can in group one tap someone (same goes for the egyptian crocodile where you rated him very bad) but they can one tap a unit in groups.
I like your tests but I think you could get more tests and probably try with a friend to make the tests less ''random'' (I remember a group of 2 units not fighting in the melee tests)
This is a really great point. The Petsuchos Egyptian laser-gator fires VERY slowly and is TOTALLY squishy, likely dying to most myth units in a 1v1, but that isn't a fair assessment of its usefulness.
The same can be said for these seafaring myth units. Those with ranged attacks can help bolster shoreline assaults between land units and serve as backline cover for ramming ships.
Man-o-War comparison to Son of Osiris is interesting, but consider how Son of Osiris himself is pretty squishy. You wouldn't send him in to solo anything.
One thing I like what Spirit of the Law does for his AOE2 videos, is he set-up groups of units for Similair costs.
So lets say 3 Man o wars vs 4 Jormund Elver
Or what about these in combination with a few ships.
Anyway love the vid, keep it up.
6:27 the way you say 'War turtle' reminds me of 'wartortle' from pokemon
hahaha ^^
"gold can run out" You keep your trade routes open you can have more Gold than food in certain cases.
Misty's Water Stadium pokemon lineup
For me Kraken is number 1, you just make them few and put them together and they will control that area, however other mith units can't instantly kill, so can get lost around while running for fishing boat and than transport ship can easily come. Of corse this is in case you play against AI and if you don't have time to spend controlling the sea by yourself...
oh look I found his age of mythology. wish I could play this again (love a sad mac user) *sad mac noises*
🐸
Finally
Why aren't there trade ships in the games like AoE2 and AoM?
Bout to get a ton of subs soon
I'm not sure how big the AoM community is man, it'd be cool to see though!
@@Nexotic0 EDIMUS
I for one, highly enjoy this content no matter the remaining size. Keep at it id say :)
The kraken probably wasted alot of damage against human units.
There is the scylla,, I missed that little rascal
;)
Best water myth unit will be nereid Scylla growing three heads is a special case which will also decrease it's health nereid can beat any water myth unit in it's own
You're based man
Is it a coincidence your username happens to be Protox :P
I am ProtoxxGaming if that's what you mean? :) (my main channel)
@@Nexotic0 The AoM file containing unit attacks and armor is called Protox 😂
Hmmmmmm 👀
😍
Greetings!
Preis algorithm gods!
Welcome!
Well technically gold cant run out either if you build a market and start making money with donkeys, camels, ect...
RELEASE……THE KRAKEN!!!
What map can Gold run out on?
erebus has alot of gold
@@surajkrishna8625 no I mean... due to trading... gold can't really run out.
Wood can, but Gold can't.
@@muffinheretic994 oh okay i was like u were asking which map has alot of gold
gomen
@@surajkrishna8625 naw, I was being rhetorical. But it was very nice advice though, I actually did not know that Erebus had lots of gold, thank you :D
@@muffinheretic994 my pleasure whats ur fav major god
In all seriousness the water mythic age units need some major buffs if DE happens, carcinos and man o war pathetic
You made me download AoM again. I swear the Steam version's AI is weaker than the original.
Is it? I never really notcied D:
I played loads of games before eventually buying the extended edition a while back
Yeah I noticed that too
@@Nexotic0 Well... maybe. When I first played the game I was around 6, maybe even a bit younger. To me the easy AI was sometimes a challenge, moderate was definitely a run for my money and I mostly lost. Side note, I didn't speak English at all so I didn't particularly understand anything in it besides my observations.
I wish I could go back and play it again without the Atlantean and Chinese nonsense.
@@sipofsunscorchedsarsaparil6052 U can, I have the old base and titans games seperately
Might just be that once you have matured you also have gotten better at these sorts of games. Though the Extended edition do have a lot to be desired. And I wish they made a proper Definitive edition. The game need a facelift beyond the all the fixes. (Especially the Chines. Good concept. But feel like a cheap fan made mod and not a fully finished product.)
leviathan is most likely the strongest large hp
Wtf is a nereid. Is that from the new gods? I only played the original
Atlantean unit. Under Hyperion.
"The servant is pretty much just a scout unit"
Does this guy even know about their healing abilities ?
Yeah but in terms of combat. Still a scout
no. just no.
Hmm?
