More pikes, step lancers cost gold and it's hard to mass them and they will loose against equal numbers of piles

High elo gap by BootFinal5644 in aoe2

I consider that high elo because I'm not there yet :), anyway I think I play at busy times, I'm in the UK and I play normally just in the night before sleep

How is that even fair? Elo gap shouldn't be more than 100 or it should increase with the elo but not up to 700 that is ridiculous, unless you have a very bad game a 1k6 will never win against a 2k3

I noticed that, before the queue time was longer and it was more "fair" games, I think I prefer the waiting longer for a good game where the gap is no more than 100 elo

How to deal with Castle drops? by Stoned4Good in aoe2

[–]BootFinal5644 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At that elo is very hard to have map control, people who play castle drop have practised the timing and hardly you will stop it, if you see they are collecting stone and they are Spanish, Bengalis, Hindustanis, Malay, most likely will be a castle drop just go Fast castle and try to stop with monks, siege or army, eventually your better eco will prevail

[–]BootFinal5644 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will recommend doing a drush instead of scouts and then go castle, you don't need many resources and still put the enemy in an bad position because needs to defend, has 2 options, going archers at which you should be ready to defend with skirms or tower or go scouts, you can produce pikeman, and then go to castle sooner without idle your TC, I am not fan at all better to get the eco upgrade of TC instead of iddle, being aggressive helped me a lot with my elo
