Drongo: With China you dont need to bother yourself with early push. Just boom your echo.
Also Drongo: Killed his enemy with sneaky lumberjack play at 14th minute as Chinese

Just thought to let you know but I refresh your channel roughly 14 times a day, drongo, you are my go to for aoe4 happiness, I feel asif I'm in the game myself when your casting, keep being the 10/10 Chad you are

[Savirezz]

My problem is always trying to build a stable economy and defense first without trying to harass the enemy.

just got into AoE4 and this channel is gold, thank you

rule of thumbs like one production building for every 3 minutes of game time are really good things to help out newer players. The more general rule of thumbs the better. Another one is all in beats boom, boom beats turtle and turtle beats all in.

Those rams getting blocked was heart breaking xD glad it worked out

[MrLinkDay]

Really nice content, Drongo. I've been playing AoE4 for only 4 months, you and Beasty have helped so much in the learning curve, it's a great thing! Also, love to see some gameplay of your own from time to time.

What a play with that lumber camp at the end 😂

This was really helpful, thanks! A quick summary of what are the styles and win conditions for each civ would be nice to know how to approach the tips provided here

First video I’ve seen that makes sense as a brand new player. My friend talked me into playing and I instantly latched onto China. I tried basically every other civ and decided China is my favorite. I’ll be watching your strategies next

Playing against AI can be really helpful. Yes, you won't be dealing with as many strategies, but it def helps get you more comfortable trying things you wouldn't typically do.

Drongo: China excells in the late game.. you don't want to push at 12 minutes
Also drongo: *casually shows a massive all in chop thru an entire Forrest at 12 minutes with China* 🤣

French can do ultra heavy trade eco aswell. So I think it depends a lot on the maptype and the mapsize.

1. For mine civ that I like to play is the Rus. I love using their warrior monks, cavalary archer and knight. Also I like use their bonuses with hunting huts that makes sure I got nice food and gold income.
2. Because I like to play as Rus I know that mine enemy played as English I focused on knights so I could counter his archers but I must make sure they wont counter mine cavalary with those spikes
3. I know that I must build hunting hut next to big forest that for now I wont cut. The bigger the better and sometimes I dont even got gold mine but I already got enought gold to make next era building. Usualy thats is Kreml for early def and bonus into collecting wood.
4. Here I take army of early cavalary knights that make sure I can make even in feudal age rush or with mine monks take sacred sides and block them with reinforced wood walls and their towers.
5. As Rus you must know how to scout to make sure they find deer herds, sheeps, nice places for huts and on some closed maps where are the best chooke points to make some wood walls with some towers so mine def is easier.
6. I know how to use mine resurces. Because you love Chinese and talk with them I talk as Rus. I make a lot of food and gold that I make from huts and upgrated villigers. I usualy make at least 4 stables to make sure mine line of knights is good. I also learned what kind of special building I should build next. If I see that enemy is more agresive then I build uniqie castle that alows me build stone walls so I have more defensive capabilities or build siege workshop so I can make unique techs and faster bombard cannons. No need for stronger monks? Then I get the big hunter hut that also gives me deer from time to time to make sure I got extra gold and food.

True that mastering the civ is hard but when you do it, you know exacly what you need to do.

Hey Drongo, could you please release a water guide?

As one who has never followed builds and made my own china build that caried me like 14/0 against gold and plat players I felt really solid.

But I just got stomped. HARD. By an HRE player, and his tip at the end was “never ignore water.”

I have aways hated water and avoided it, but after that break in my win streak, I feel compelled to learn water.

And it is a lot harder for me to learn.

I’ve been a land China main since start, being only civ with full mastery.

I’ve considered myself a great player, almost always beating plat players (unranked usually) as china, but after being destroyed I really need to learn water.

Specifically the juggling of my land resources. How early do I invest into boats? How hard do I invest? How many boats do I want? How do I balance land military with navy??

I lost on Mediterranean. Overwhelmed by landschnencs and Man At Arms.

I ALWAYS have the best economy in my games, so I never feel so helpless like I did in that game.

His economy was just way better than mine due to fishing. To the point I know I have to learn water to improve.

This game in the background was mad. GG wp drongo

[Ilandria.]

I have played so many competitive games yet can never convince myself to play ranked because I always feel like I have more to learn before playing ranked so I fully understand the sentiment of grinding out skirmishes to master something prior to enteringa ranked game.

Just getting back into the game now and thank you so much for all the amazing advice!
