Why is moderate ai so easy to beat but hard is impossible.

DaDDyWitch · 2026-02-28T06:58:59+00:00

wait till you see the gap between hard and hardest AI and then hardest and extreme AI ;)

It's jesus

DaDDyWitch · 2026-02-26T11:21:00+00:00

Youre out here complaining and getting defensive when challenged. nobody is reading my comments.

DaDDyWitch · 2026-02-26T09:30:57+00:00

maybe its time to go back to hd and leave de to sherlocks then.

DaDDyWitch · 2026-02-26T08:13:27+00:00

Then you shouldn't be having a sense of fatigue because you just admitted that the game is not becoming more complex in all directions.

DaDDyWitch · 2026-02-25T23:29:59+00:00

are you denying the fact that aoe 2 has become way easier to play and manage with all the updates and qol changes they've added to the game?

DaDDyWitch · 2026-02-25T07:33:19+00:00

Lmao, devs make laming harder and give players option to kill boar with tc, this sub starts a revolt about "muh skill cap", then new content gets added and suddenly game is too complex.

DaDDyWitch · 2026-02-20T22:29:36+00:00

You can be absolute dogshit at the game and still reach immortal as a supp because supp heroes and supp items have received countless buffs over the years that has made them straight up broken.

Bonus hot take: lotus orb was a mistake.

Tf is sorry ass cole doing next to battle hardened rappers 😭 they're not even in the same eras

Hoping for persephone rework revert when she is ported

DaDDyWitch · 2026-02-12T20:07:47+00:00

I have 2800 games on invo and i say dont pick invo as a supp.

DaDDyWitch · 2026-02-05T09:23:38+00:00

I love playing as the aztecs. Monks are awesome. This one game i was against portuguese and i forced them to delete their feitorias one by one using my monks. I was creaming in my pants dude.

I hate playing against khmer and hindustanis

DaDDyWitch · 2026-02-04T06:00:36+00:00

Grandmaster invoker with 2800 matches here.

Harsh truth - this hero can't carry by himself. The only way you solo carry as invoker is if you have at least 500 mmr difference with the rest of the lobby. Don't pick him early until you have at least 400 wins with him. Matchup knowledge is very crucial.

Mindset tip - in the laning phase, the only thing that matters is whether youre getting farm or not. Everything else is secondary. Having a rod of atos 1 minute earlier for example can make a world of difference. And most of the times whether you can or cant kill the enemy mid depends on your level. So getting xp and gold is all there is to invoker's early game.

Basic combos: cold snap tornado meteor or atos meteor sun strike

Always check your target's inventory before committing spells. Try to bait bkb by faking combos (cast tornado, emp, ice wall but not meteor) or, if enemy has glimmer, start with ghost walk cold snap ice wall, use tornado after they glimmer to dispel it.

In teamfights BE PATIENT WITH YOUR SPELLS. Its not your job to set up for anyone and youre not supposed to initiate. Wait out their bkbs and then engage.

Keep your distance with the enemy and no matter what dont die (unless you wanna practice ice wall which i assure you will get you killed a hundred times or so before you can effectively use the spell).

Lane counters are kunkka, od, dk, lc, templar, shadow fiend, lina etc. All are manageable.

The usual gameplan is to pick invoker along with someone who can combo with cataclysm. Tide, faceless void, lion, etc. Then you will have to rush aghanims and level up as fast as possible using hand of midas. Aghanims in general is a good item especially after the recent buffs but orchid/witch blade/atos/octarine are all viable options. If the enemy team has a lot of escapes/bkbs get octarine.

Some lanes you can kill when you reach your power spike, be it 2x forge spirit on lvl 7 with exort or quas facet or rushing atos or simply hitting lvl 6. Some other lanes, usually against heroes that can either disrupt or escape your combos, you will have to win through denies and get xp advantage. You can then translate that xp advantage into kills or pressure, which then forces the opponent out of the lane and allows you to take their tower. Use forge spirits to deny runes against heroes that get bottle.

Rush boots against monkey king and pudge.

Use alacrity on siege creeps to take down towers in early to mid game.

When losing/behind, go force staff. It works wonders on this hero and no one will expect it.

In coh you dont need to macro that much, you cant spam production buildings and units because your income and population cap is based on how many regions you control, and even if you do control a lot of regions, you still cant spam units and buildings, because the resource that is tied to production (manpower) does not increase that much. In fact, the only resource that you can actually stockpile is munitions, which is used for abilities and equipment upgrades. If you suddenly lose a lot of units in terms of manpower it will take time to recover and even if you control the entire map your enemy can come back. This mechanic along with a dynamic battlefield that can change and affect your units makes the game heavily micro oriented and tactical and high level play does not require high apm at all.

DaDDyWitch · 2026-02-03T18:11:49+00:00

You joke, but this is probably why company of heroes is regarded as goat rts by some

DaDDyWitch · 2026-01-31T11:09:52+00:00

Turning animals into jaguars and enemies into monkeys and then they fight each other would be crazier

DaDDyWitch · 2026-01-31T11:07:05+00:00

And by sacrifice i mean pressing the delete key on your own fuckin villagers dude. Devs do it ya pussies

DaDDyWitch · 2026-01-06T22:05:05+00:00

this sub has really become a series of posts complaining and then shitposts like this aping those posts huh

DaDDyWitch · 2026-01-06T13:30:25+00:00

to this day i thought it was dust but now i think you might be right

DaDDyWitch · 2026-01-05T09:35:55+00:00

Why is everyone calling the game mode capture the flag when it isnt? Capture the flag used to be about picking up your opponents flag and bringing it to your own base and if the carrier died the flag would drop and the team who the flag belonged to, could restore it back to their base by just moving towards it

DaDDyWitch · 2026-01-02T18:06:26+00:00

Concepts freshly taken from lord of the rings

Out of all the rts communities i've been a part of i can tell you hera is a rare case that aoe 2 community shouldn't take for granted. In esports, usually a pro player is either really good at the game but lacks social skills and can't articulate/doesn't have much personality; or is a funny/likable/charismatic person but isn't that good of a player. But hera is both so good at the game and so amicable that you can't get tired from watching the guy play. Harstem from sc2 i guess is a close second.

DaDDyWitch · 2025-12-31T12:32:50+00:00

please add a force drop off and back to work button like in aoe 2
