The thing about aztec mirror is just that the unit compositions counter system is not really respected. Usually you have RI + cav < HI + cav, because RI + cav has nothing to block the HI, and inevitably the cav will die faster, resulting in the other guy having cav left and being able to crush the RI.
But maces are just too OP at sniping pikes, so it kind of breaks the system. Maces can't hit and run and have a mediocre range, to make up for their very good dps. But in the case of a mirror, the range and shooting animation aren't really a problem, since the other guy doesn't have skirms to outrange your maces anyway. So you end up being able to simply ship 10 or 9 maces, and just one shoot pumas one by one every 1.5s. When you think about it, in this configuration, 10 or 9 maces simply snipe pikes twice as fast as an 8 bows shipment, because of the high ROF.
Then on top of that, coyotes don't get super hard countered by pikes, so people end up not really training pumas. Then obviously you see some coyote wars.

Re: LordRaphael vs Mitoe
intra-civ and intra-patch counter system is often very well respected and that's the case for aztecs too.
If anything the only unusual thing is maces doing decent vs coyo bdcause both mace great dps per cost and coyote mediocre rr%.
In any case mace coyo get raped by coyo puma. Just puma cost gold and they are a premium pike unit. You generally dont want the premium status on a pike unit.
