Most Fair Match-ups

Post by _DB_ »

The reverse of the topic of most unfair match-ups.

Which non-mirror match ups you think are the most fair at an equal skill level? Also provide a reason to support your statement.

This is my list:

1)Chinese vs Germans: I find Germany the only civ which actually has something to counter the Chinese FF

2)India vs Japan: I find it equally hard for both civs to play this match-up.

3)French vs Ottoman: The musk semi is just very good strat, quite fast and highly viable vs Ottomans and vils can fight too so you don't easily get rekt. I'm very comfortable to pick French in this MU rather than any other civ.

I agree with you.

About France vs Germany, I think France win on a non-TP map.

On a map with a decent food, brit should beat france. And on a TP map, germany beats france too.

Also, ottoman vs france is not fair. Even tho its not the easiest match up for otto, they still beat france (btw huss semi will often be better than musks semi, the only case where musks semi is better is against a jan rush, but then just go bows really).

I think germany vs brits is almost fair, tho at high level brits will win I think.
Spain vs germany too maybe

i think brits vs ottoman is quite fair because on the start brits can make lbow and then with the 2 musket cards he can make muskets vs the janissaries.

Its otto Favorited IMO

Chinese vs ger is quite fair indeed. India vs jap isn't, on land maps jap just win and fre vs otto is fair as long as the otto ff, but a good otto will jan/abus and you'll loose.
ger vs brit is fair, fre vs brit as well.

Port vs dutch, iro vs otto, india vs china, sioux vs azzy are quite fair.

Brit vs Germany is unfair on a non TP map for Germany. Same for French vs Germany. Germany rekts both on TP maps.
Ports vs Brits is very unfair
Azzy India is fair
Otto vs French okay, Otto vs Germany is harder for Germany
China vs Otto is fair till Otto goes FF. On a bad map China lose vs otto jan rush, not even close.
Otto India is unfair. Theres no way India wins.
Brit vs Dutch is very unfair for Dutch.
Spain vs Brits is worst match for Spain in tournaments
Russia vs Brits is okay
Japan vs Iro Otto is impossible
China rekts Japan

Russia wins vs Spain with timing push. On non TP map its still fair, harder for spain.

Russia vs Port is fair till age 3. After age 4 its impossible for Russia unless you play like a god.
