I think Germans prove just how good xbows can be. The free ulhan also do help out quite a bit.

Germans are quite popular nowadays, hard to say who use them better when everyone is doing ulhan semi. Mitoe had quite some insight of the civ if you ask me.

Practically it's Blackstar_OP, but Mitoe probably understands the civ better in theory.

Not sure about that, Roby understands the civ truly. He has very good and unique style of playing the civ. Inventor of many diffirent styles of german play. What I''ve seen so far from mitoe is pretty much uhlan semi. (Which he does very well of course).

In the final H2O_ and Blackstar played a German mirror. H2O won that one, so either one of them could possibly have the best German skills.

I made up my strat based on experience from one fanpatch game in like 2009. Made up the play mid game. I won that one by mechanics and my second rax rather than anything else.

Define "strongest". As Garja said, 90% of German players go uhlan semi every game, so it is hard to consider that skillful or unique play. I consider skill with a certain civ to be having a thorough understanding of multiple strategies. By that standard, H20 is probably the best.

Hm yeah but I said that because Ive seen mitoe doing builds for like a year, and blackstar only started doing them now. For exmaple, for uhlan semi you can just stay on 40 pop instead of 50 and get steel traps with the gold, while only making 4 uhlans instead of 5. This is the 43/40 build, since you send 700g when youre at 39 pop :P. Another one is sending 1k wood as first fortress card and using it for houses, second TP, almagation, rax and playing for a bit later fortress.

Germany is easily one of h2o worst civs.

Eh, I havent seen a single innovation in years for Germany. If anyone revamped Germany that was either Flooky or Samwise.

Also Germans have that small window, just after they reach fortress, when they can abuse their Big Four shipments and beat any top tier civ!

German is one of the easiest way to counter ports on land. Port musk semi it's not remotely close to German ulhan semi. And on water Germans still win by countering it, unless we're talking about Hispaniola.
