On hispaniola don't rush india. Go for water and be prepared if he rushes you. If both boom on water you must be confident with your Aztec macro game. Also if you rush at least commit with all unit shipments. You could have also tried 600w into schooners instead of 5v 600w follow up. If rush didn't work it's not like you can break the agra at any point later.

Vs japan you either rush or boom hard. Here he went tori giving you an opportunity to win easily. Somehow you fucked up early on (dropping a second rax makes no sense you can't even produce from two).

Brit guy trolled you with the full huss thing. You should do full coyo + pikes + maces shipments (if some musks or pikes). In general just start coyo since it deals fine vs all unit types. Also don't go 700w 5v is bad. Go 700w 3wp 600w 5v if possible. Adapt if necessary. The build here should have been 700w 3wp 600w 600g then 5v if you think you can keep going eco or 10 maces in case he has musks and he tryes to break your fb.

On yellow river you simply fucked up. At 10 mins even after misplaying a bit you're 90 vs 60 score. Why would you ever commit under his TC after you sent 4v and you're up in score. Just boom yourself with WP and eco cards and let him make a move on you. You got enough lead early on so that India superior units can't beat you anymore, especially because these players go for sepoy instead of zambs.

700w 5v is unoptimal. 700w 3wp 600w 5v is the most efficient way to spam coyotes. 700w 5v you struggle keeping unit production or housing. 700w 5v 600w your 600w comes too late and you get some idle. 700w 600w 5v it's just too much wood and again 3rd card doesn't come fast enough. 700w 600w 5v is good with TPs.

wow garja you're a kindful one! i've never expected that you watched all of them.

also i'm thinking about 5v-700w-600w/600g 2 rax timing. is it available in some cases?

I'd say no. If you want to toy around with 2rax timings consider stagecoach+wh age up and something like 700w 600w 600g.
700w always has to be the first card with fast age up builds if the intent is to make units asap. 3wp is the only alternative for max WP boom. 5v is okish with WH age up. In that case you want atleast one TP in transition since you need extra xp as Aztec to be competitive.
