Those are probably all three good and relevant picks. All three are also good on no TP maps, are currently strong meta civs and counter eachother (Brits > Dutch, Dutch > India and India > Brits) which means they are all relatively decently positioned.
Considering that however, I've been wondering how good of a pick aztec would have been. In my opinion they have a solid match up against Dutch and India and can, depending on the map pool, also do well against british. They are also pretty good against the other no TP civs that are solid: China and Japan fear Aztec and Aztec vs Russia seems okay.
However, I do feel like there are few aztec mains and that there will be many players picking what they are good at rather than what is best.

Brits>India*
Aztecs can't really do well against british, the MU is quite one-sided tbh.

That is true, until you start considering more low res maps, then it might be bearable. I don't know what the mappool will be like though.

Re: NYC MONO CIV (Poll)
Round of 32: Mendocino / Cascade Range / Florida / Klondike / Pampas Sierras / Hudson Bay / Fertile Crescent
Round of 16: Cascade Range / Florida / Klondike / Pampas Sierras / Hudson Bay / Fertile Crescent / Mendocino
Quarter finals: Florida / Klondike / Pampas Sierras / Hudson Bay / Fertile Crescent / Mendocino / Cascade Range
Semi-finals: Klondike / Pampas Sierras / Hudson Bay / Fertile Crescent / Mendocino / Cascade Range / Florida
Finals and 3rd/4th Place: Pampas Sierras / Hudson Bay / Fertile Crescent / Mendocino / Cascade Range / Florida / Klondike
Anyway, even on low resource maps, the MU is close, and very Brit favoured on high resource maps.

Pampas Sierras/Fertile Crescent/Cascade range should definitely be playable for Aztec and Klondike doesn't seem that bad right? Granted it is definitely not ideal, but if that's the big downside of your pick with it being pretty good in most other match ups then it does seem fine. The perfect pick probably doesn't and shouldn't exist.

Re: NYC MONO CIV (Poll)
Why would Pampas Sierras be especially good for Aztecs?
Also, although aztecs don't rely as much as semi ff civs on TPs, you usually want to build a TP from 700w, and stagecoach is great against boomy civs. So they suffer more than dutch/brit from no TP maps.

Re: NYC MONO CIV (Poll)
Aztecs beat Brits on most maps but lose to india in pretty much every map. If it wasn't for India, Aztecs would be a good pick overall.
Also French is probably still a very good pick. You are granted solid age1 and they are fine on most maps even no TP, especially since they both have very strong nats to use in some MUs.

pampas sierras is a bit low on hunts. Do you think the 5 klondike TPs could be reasonable for aztec in the expected meta?

5 tp maps are good for azzy because they control the map

Pampas Sierras isn't really low on hunts. I don't think that the Aztecs vs Brits would be good for azz tbh.
Klondike is great ofc, but if you go for a TP boom, you're might get cheesed and lose your fb, so it's not a free win at all.
Re: NYC MONO CIV (Poll)
The diversity is actually way better than I would have ever guessed. Should be awesome to watch!
mad cuz bad
Re: NYC MONO CIV (Poll)
Regardless, Aztec seems like a decently positioned pick. Although I must say I feel like expertly played Dutch/India can beat Aztec still and of course the match up vs Brits isn't great. I don't think the match ups vs Germany and France are great and while I don't think those civs are good picks I think they are relatively popular civs amongst players that will get picked regardless.
Maybe you shouldn't overanalyze and just pick India.

I guess it shows that the patch is well-balanced, and that we shouldn't go for a shit patch.
