I was wondering what MU, map, build, strategy people find the most successful vs Japs.

Some how I got convinced to play on unknown once. Fucking map had two total herds on the entire thing. 8turkey in each player base and that was all. I ended up doing a Japan 10/10 because I was looking for hunts,but never found any and by the time I realized there were none besides the one in base I already had food to age. I got destroyed that game bc not having any hunts at all just screws Japan especially if you're not expecting it

French pike semi and sioux ff are the best ways to loose actually.
As a japanese player, I have hard time vs otto and iro ofc and also vs azzy. Brit and india are also quite good vs japan but I'd say it is a fair MU.

Most people who use Japan just blow with that civ. Doing a timing push vs Japan is the best.

I want replays of japan beating a well executed 10 pike semi

Otherwise I think Aztec has a good time against Japan.

For example I think that Japan might actually have a hard time against even a german semi

could be wrong but I definitely don't think japan is an invincible civ. you definitely need to take out shrines I think

1) Boneng won both garja''s german and garja''s fre on siberia (last tournament and pkclan), there''s also konigerik vs snsjack from the pkclan tournament. Boneng and snsjack did shit and still manage to win lol :P

2) Beating a good aztek as japan is almost impossible.

3) German semi is hard to hold as japan but I think a good jap player should beat jap but it is a close MU imo.

Since when does 10 pike semi work vs japan? Killing shrines is overrated , takes a long time and the economical impact on japan is limited while you are exposing ur units and giving japan all the time to make counterunits

Targetting villagers / base is more effective early.

If you''re waiting for a timing, killing shrines is better than nothing. Sure, you can rush the jap but not every civs can do that (only iro/india/russia)

what do you even rush for though, that's the question

a good Japanese player will protect his villagers and his small army, it's very hard to target anything I feel

The best way to counter jap with most civs is a 8-9 min timing.
