What do you guys think about these changes to the Aquarion tribe? Do you think they'll now be competitively viable? One extra thing that I brought up but forgot to explicitly show off in the video is yes, you can build sawmills, forges, etc, on water tiles Also, apparently, other tribes have access to a "Fill" action, which undoes Aquarion's "Flood" action on a particular tile. Oh, one more thing. *YELLY BELLY*
Absolutely,It haves more can be even a possible tribe on drylands since its biome acts as wáter and dry enemy lands can be change with sinking tiles ability,like polaris can expand its strength,its biome
I’m pretty sure construction is really strong for them, since they can make any flooded tile into farmland without any forest burning necessary. Plus the extra positioning of windmills over water tiles
I think flooding could do with a SLIGHT boost like maybe it does 2 or 3 tiles instead of just the one you’re standing on but that’s all I can think to really tweak right now Also YELLY BELLY
One part of the flooded tiles that you missed is that they are not permanent. There is a “Fill” command that other tribes have access to in order to undo the flooding, just like breaking ice against Polaris. Other than that, I’m really excited for these changes!
Finally all special tribes have a special way to play. Cymanti with explosive early game power, elyrion with a good early and amazing late game with dragons, polaris with its ice making abilities and insane ice fighting boosts, and now Aquarion and its amazing naval strength and space to build.
So hyped for this. Aquarion was always weird, their identity thematically being water units, but notoriously being mechanically bad on water and instead great on drylands with roads. Then the naval rework came and their cool water stuff was basically powercrept. The roads tech was nerfed and thus Aquarion were the water tribe with their only really relevant gimmick being riders that can swim, wow. This rework brings Aquarion their mechanical and thematic characteristic back and I am so hyped to see Aquarion as a cool tribe again instead of a tragedy, regardless of them potentially being an off-meta pick!
I love this rework, I really hope the beta does not take anything away. The new units are all vital, they need the aqua farms, and the atolls are a very nice change. Lost cities is also very needed and gives them the edge in water maps, and levels the playing field in less water maps, and is very on theme. Flooding is cool, esp when opponents can fill it. And yeah.......LOVEE this rework. My only issue is that I wish they did something with the super unit. Because all the other super units of special tribe are so special. But the crab just feels like a giant but with a crab skin on. I am not even saying something crazy like splash damage, but maybe.....flooding areas as it moves, like the gammi. The gammi have freeze, so this still makes crabs weaker, but at least it would make them useful to a strategy, and very vital in certain plans.
I like the coming rework, Aquarion gonna be great. I got some ideas. My idea is Marine life and Spearing should change place in the tech tree. Sharks become the knight of Aquarion, they become the Navalons of Elyrion before and they have chain. Tridentions have reduced attack and is now like the scouts for Aquarion. Their like archers but has more mobility and escape, and scout ability(further vision).
I kinda wanna see Aquarian in a Drylands, seeing how their Flooding exists. They’ll still most likely suck, but at least they have a form of counter play now..?
I feel like not having bombers late game will be an issue plus the shark being more expensive than the warrior rammer and as expensive as a defender rammer. Their economy though seems like it could become very strong to counteract that. It will be interesting.
I am loving the changes so far. I don’t have it on steam but I think once it’s fully released, it will make aquarion a much more viable option for games.
So happy to see this rework, from the first time I started playing the game Aquarion were my visually fav tribe but they were just so bad 😭 now not only stronger but more Aquarion then ever!
I love the Yelly Belly because im pretty sure its a pun about Jelly Belly’s (obviously) but also its called a “Yelly” because Midjiwan is a Swedish company! Swedish people pronounce the “J” as a “Y” sound, Like Jeb from Minecraft.
I tried it out yesterday and was immediately anticipating your video on it. Sharks were kinda disappointing, they did less damage than I thought they would based on their stats and took damage really easily, like, at Knight levels. I, instead, found salvation through Yelly Bellies. They are absolutely ridiculous; I just parked enough on front lines to cause damage and attacked around the sides. I neutralized entire waves of enemies this way. Despite having 0 attack, they're incredible offensive units too, because when you move them it causes damage as well, as long as the enemy unit hasn't also recieved damage yet from that Yelly Belly.
I think that when you “get” a city from a ruin it should say something like new city restored or ruins converted insted of village converted, but this might just be a bug
The ocean ruins give level 3 cities but they only produce 2 stars, the same if you capture a village on land. I wonder if that's intentional? Very good video
@@GullYYGamer So many times that a city is one tile away from the sea which ends up making a huge difference for producing naval units fast/getting city connections.
They should just buff the crab somehow. Like current version crabs are just bad because a giant on water just doesn't work against entirely ranged naval units. Even rammers can outclass them without too much effort.
@@eggroll5510 They have 5 defense and since they have creep and retreat they are pretty decent at sieging cities. so most definitely stronger than regular giants
I did find it funny that Sharks were just called "Sharks," yet the Jellyfish are *YELLY BELLY*. That being said, if Midjiwan changes Yelly Belly's name I will be plunged into eternal darkness
All of aquarion new units are very tanky. yelly belly destroys warrior that try to attack it. and sharks are just rammers that can enter the fight 1 turn earlier. Also Crab is getting the buff they deserve the most. (in these last few patches, crab got +1 movement on water, 5 defense, creep, and now aquafarms)
Units that have more than 1 movement, like cloaks and Amphibians, only have 1 movement on land. Whereas on the water they get their full movement. Also, I believe if an Aquarion player captures an enemy city with roads they can't use them for a movement boost
Eh. I feel like the flood mechanic feels too weak imo. The amount of tempo loss required to flood tiles is so great that in a real person match you often dont get that much leeway to do all that without the enemy army inflicting heavy damage

I absolutely agree
I couldnt watch the video because of how annoying that name is and how frequently it was said 😭
He should get fired

@@dark6.6E-34 agreed, its fine for beta but is too unrelated to be in the final game

Oh interesting, I'll specify that in a pinned comment
what tech do players need to buy to have fill?
they walk onto the tile, then click “Fill” (doesnt need any tech, just needs the unit to have an action)
On Reddit the developer said that they couldn’t fill them back in. That’s odd.
oh good cause watching how Gully flooded everything seemed way too OP
Yelly Belly are now my spirit animal

The only aquarion strategy was just spam tridentions, I am looking forward to this rework
sadly i think they will have an hard time to advance in dry terrains, everyone will just keep zoning them out with things like catapults
@@samuelbarros1563 yeah, let's hope that gets adjusted when the rework is finalised
14:13 a shark sieging the city...a sentence i never thought i would hear lmaooo fever dream
Can we just take in that they have the ability to straight up MAKE NEW CITIES???
Seems cool.
Yelly belly 💛💛💛💛
Love the daggermaids lol. They're just fish with daggers and masks, and it looks great
the mermaid cloaks look so goofy because theyre not even wearing a cloak anymore, its just part of their body 💀
also *SWORDSMAID*
Brooo, your editing and stuff is so good. Way better than the polytopia channel itself lmao
After seeing this Rework I start to like Aquarion much more, before this Beta they were my least favorite but now I love these FYSH guys
Ah man your videos are pure art. Don't stop creating

I cannot wait!
Cymanti is still my favorite but the new aquarion is going to be fun to test! (Mobile player)
When that mobile update coming ??
Been a fan of you for ages man and your content never fails to cheer me up. This rework seems very cool by the way, just what aquarion needed!
I like the facecam, your vids truly are getting better and better
Ive just realised the new version might be Nerfed like Cyamanti just a Guess but IM SO HYPED FOR THIS UPDATE!!!!!!!
This looks so amazing, might get me into playing more water based maps
I was so waiting for you to review the rework
Hope you enjoy it!

NEW GULLY UPLOAD????????? THIS IS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE UNTIL THE NEXT VID!!
Been waiting for this for forever, glad it's finally coming
Great update. Wild stuff that it took years
You know what else is gonna be fun? You stream a live 9 player game match in a water world and everyone has to use Aquarion
Aquarian got grown up - Atlantis has risen! 🧜🏻
gully: can I now train sharks? yes I can
also gully: YELLY BELLY
they way you say "jelly belly" whit a ton of love everytime lmao
Hearing mention of 'the yelly belly gods' inspired a fear within me 😂
What if when aquarion captures a city it automatticaly floods the tiles you capture
W idea
"Imagine you're in Seattle and an octopus just walks up on land" 😂😂😂😂
GullYY saying " *y e l l y b e l l y* " like DJ Khaled will always be funny

Oh it was funny until he started explaining it, then it turned into a terrible variant of dad joke which I was not ready for
@@Gerrieberrie76 Yeah
I'm calling a petition to call the cloaks of Aquarion catfish
Eyo finally LEZZ GOO
I think that when you “get” a city from a ruin it should say something like new city restored or ruins converted insted of village converted, but this might just be a bug
I bought polytopia today, after I've heard about rework. I think aquarion still need a bit of tweaking, but they're already really fun to play!
This is a Yelly Belly moment.
The rework is so much more than I expected
I'd love to see the new Aquarion in 1v1s against Polaris or Kickoo!
Ur videos are always so good u deserve way more subs
Nice Vid GullYY, I wanted to ask on how to get an easy 100% on tribes after the Naval Update. Im hoping that u could answer this. Thanks!
I have a video planned on this topic, hope to get it up within the next month. Short answer is 2 Crazy Bots
Of course we get the Aquarion rework before Silksong
Gully should also be the famous
The ocean ruins give level 3 cities but they only produce 2 stars, the same if you capture a village on land. I wonder if that's intentional?
Very good video
Ohh a new update for Aquarion.😯
They should give yelly belly a self destuct ability.
The enemy city watching a bunch of Yelly Bellies come in and blow everyone up:
oh boy, new gully video to eat my food to :D
I’m curious how they’ll perform on large maps, seems like they’d be good on small maps but could struggle on large maps against tribes like kickoo
I love your product Gullyy
This re work seems awesome!!!
Finnale!! He his now the strongest
I love the confidence to show your face (not that you need it 😎✨)
My bro needs a mic holder 😢
Gullyy is the "HAHA You Clowns" of gaming streamers. ❤
Here's a question: can Aquarion flood tiles for their allies to make their allies' cities coastal?
Oh, that's actually a really good question
Of course they can. I certainly don't see why not. And that is a really good point.
@@GullYYGamer So many times that a city is one tile away from the sea which ends up making a huge difference for producing naval units fast/getting city connections.
@@Sgrunterundt the support tribe
After I see this I think about bring navalon back but for auqarion
LETS FUCKING GOOOO🍾🍾🥂🥂🍾
do yelly bellies hit invisible cloaks as well?
YELLY BELLY
I hope Midjiwan changes Aquarion's super unit into something like a Kraken or a Sea Serpent or at least makes the crab more unique.
Honestly a Kraken unit would be super cool. Maybe Elyrion could get a unit like that in the future since they lost their navalon
They should just buff the crab somehow. Like current version crabs are just bad because a giant on water just doesn't work against entirely ranged naval units. Even rammers can outclass them without too much effort.
@@eggroll5510 They have 5 defense and since they have creep and retreat they are pretty decent at sieging cities. so most definitely stronger than regular giants
crabs in the beta are hella strong
spotted the TOP shirt. fav song off clancy?
They're all so good! Backslide, Oldies Station, or At The Risk of Feeling Dumb are my top picks
nice face reveal! you're one of my favorite youtubers. like the new vegas poster
Thank you! New Vegas is such a great game
I really like teh rework BUT i think they should innovate more on the crab maybe.
I think the super unit should be a kraken
They should bring back navalons
First time anyone’s used Aquarion in seventeen years
finally, this is what i thought aquarion was when i hought them 4 years ago, a little dissapointed it took this long
Yoo! GullYY rework!
Hot take:
Yelly Belly should have been named just Jellyfish.
I get that the name is fun, it sure is, but Jellyfish should be kinda more appropriate.
I did find it funny that Sharks were just called "Sharks," yet the Jellyfish are *YELLY BELLY*. That being said, if Midjiwan changes Yelly Belly's name I will be plunged into eternal darkness
Too bad you didn't actually record yourself diving into a pool for the intro

Also Crab is getting the buff they deserve the most. (in these last few patches, crab got +1 movement on water, 5 defense, creep, and now aquafarms)
mermaid cloak looks cursed lmao
what does it mean "they walk worse on land"? since most still only has 1 movement.
Units that have more than 1 movement, like cloaks and Amphibians, only have 1 movement on land. Whereas on the water they get their full movement. Also, I believe if an Aquarion player captures an enemy city with roads they can't use them for a movement boost
Yelllllllllllly Belllllllly
face cam video it has been years, let's go!
The Beta!
FINALLY
Face reveal? Looking good man
Hey, nice video, but i'm just wondering, what happens when a mooni goes onto aquarion land.
We haven't solidified how Polaris Ice interacts with Flooded tiles.
What happens? A bug.
Would it be able for mobile phones too?
Currently this beta version is only available on computer, but once the update is fully released it will be available on mobile as well!
He is so handsom fr
what happens if they mond bend a giant. does it become a mermaid
Cant wait to still lose to vengir on a 900 tiles map
