Sioux vs Japan RE

Post by Ashvin »

I have been playing sioux a lot lately and stumbled upon this match up which I thought was heavily Japan favoured because of their eco. I managed to win somehow, but i know it wasn't because I was good rather he played it bad, didn't trade his units cost efficiently and got his army killed without doing any significant damage (except for some raids which were quite good).

My thought process in this match up was to keep training as many axe riders as i can because relatively japan is weak against cav and axe riders have more than decent siege while age up to get access to wakina rifles and then adapt from there.

But I do not know if it is the right way so here I am, wanted to know if I could have done anything better(strategy wise, I know my execution was bad) and what to expect when against a better jap player in this MU.

The best way is to semi ff and hit the 16 min DS timing. You want to use the siege dance to kill the walls, and try to kill his army.

I usually ship both RR cards and then dont train them at all because they cost too much on my eco :(

I dont like to train brs because jap relies heavily on yumi so it would be a waste, no?

Ye jap stronger and more spammable units are infantry. No point in making ranged cav when there is no cav, since their base stats usually just inferior per cost to those of other units (they rely on the multiplier vs cav).
BR stats are not very different than those of actual musks so it's slightly better than making goons, but still they're hard countered by yumi and in any case you do really need lot of hand cav to deal with mass infantry. Also axe work as anticav to some extent since nagi are more of lancer type.

If Japan goes for a lot of yumis, then go for a lot of ars of course, but most jap go heavy on ashi. In this case, DS+brs+wakina will be enough.

You'd wait 16 min as sioux vs japs? And on RE, with 3000 hp walls and garbage sioux eco? No way that works

It kinda depends on if there's stagecoach available and how well you contain the shrines / deny mines and stuff like that.

I don't think it will be all 16 mins no action play. With ar sieging shrines Sioux can force a fight and put leash on jap eco

Yes, you should of course siege the shrines and rape his army if he goes out of his base. The siege dance timing is with the DS however, it can be either 14min or 16min.
