Probably because of bow riders. They don't have a penalty against villagers which is very annoying to play against. Also they are fast (with the hero) and they got quite some hp.

the civ is boring, and as one demsional as you can get imo. I generally resign verus Sioux in QS I can't be bothered it's no fun to play against especially on shitty qs maps. I'd rather take the lose.

This unit is a War Chief, an explorer equivalent for the Sioux. You can give him a custom name when creating a home city on ESO.

Lol sioux is so much fun to play, not in the least because everyone goes QQ cause they have no idea how to play vs it cause they call it lame and resign instead of finding out how to counter it. which is really easy btw.

Sioux isn't "lame" as in "OP", but as in "broken". It's really a waste of time to play against this civ, as they will basically just mass 1 unit and run on the map all the time. You winning or losing will mostly depend on how mapscrewed you are, and how long you can wait camping before you push / how hard you can wall up the map before getting hardcore bored.
Also sioux takes close to zero skill, because you don't need to macro (you don't make houses and have close to no way to boom) or to micro (you mass 1 unit anyway and can always run). It's just very low and annoying.

Yeah so easy to beat when you have no hunts and the guy spams br, which kill more or less everything in early game

Yeah on maps with high resources. On qs maps I don't think so, better abuse the shit hunts. It doesn't matter what you do either way, BRs are so op that most people just mass them and run of the map, which is extremely annoying and broken.

Maps are not balanced, you having no hunts doesn't mean sioux guy won't have hunts either. It all depends on how lucky you get, which is a reason why sioux is low and boring (ofc if you get mapscrewed vs other civs is matter too, but often not as much as vs sioux).
Btw if both sides are no food, I'm pretty sure sioux just wins because they're more mobile, they can just go camp on your hunts and idle you, and then come back defend the rush when they have a unit shipment or sth

Suoix is very strong sometimes. Sometimes it is very weak.

High speed also removes control for the opponent.

Play what you like to play. Sioux is a fine civ to play. Opponents will always find something to be sad about.

My experience with the Sioux:

If I win: "Fuckin bs broken not fun civ"

People love to complain about Sioux, India, and Japan. If it's QS just flame back and offer to rematch with reverse civs. If they dodge you then you win (again).

@Tekaaluk I love playing sioux to!
To say its very easy to play them, is not true at all :!: They have so bad eco compared to every other civs, that they have to be successful in raiding, or going in with a fast rush - or else they will just loose very hard.

Being successful in raiding, is NOT EASY though! So, my message to some of the ppl who have made posts here, saying they are lame, broken, easy to play!! Your just wrong, and I would suspect you dont know the sioux at all :dry:

People are dumb and don't understand what lame means. Sioux not the greatest civ, why anyone would say it's lame is beyond me. Cheats are something that would be lame for example (teksumris)

What is easier, to come anywhere from the darkness with ultra fast OP ranged cav, or to defend spread out shitty hunts with slow musk or xbow?

Sioux is like the 2nd easiest civ after otto or sth. There's close to nothing to know about them btw.

It's tier 1 in team games (especially in 3v3), if not best civ, regardless of what you are combined with. In 1v1 it's not op, just lame.

Thats such bs lol. Ppl should honestly stop pretending like training vils and making houses is the hardest shit in the world. Pretty much all aoe3 civs are about as hard macrowise. Sure sioux cant get housed. Big fucking deal lol, its super easy not to get housed. Oh and otto dont have to press t+v. Omg now its like 1 billion times easier cuz i have to do 1 thing less. Aoe3 macro is already fucking easy so to say that 1 civ is easier is quite pointless tbh. Only india has a little awkward macro but nothing u cant get used to.
