0 bank dutch ego rec

Post by I_HaRRiiSoN_I »

After an argument started out between what is more OP dutch or british and who is stronger in the match up. I claimed i could beat merlin with 0 banks and play the civ with 100coin vills with a severe disadvantage. He challenged me and I accepted to a game on a standard map.

Banks are not OP, people who play dutch are OP :kinggreen:

p.s. was a decent game (theres about 400 elo difference) and some vill hiding going on at the end with "friendly" banter exchanged

stronger player beats weaker player by going +400 Elo on a map with many gold mines
If I were a petal
And plucked, or moth, plucked
From flowers or pollen froth
To wither on a young childā€™s
Display. Fetch
Me a ribbon, they, all dead
Things scream.

Since Harris posted I almost sure its Harris who won. But since this is esoc I feel the need to ask... who won
Fine line to something great is a strange change.

the match up is definitely british favored since there's no way to hold musk/hussar timing as dutch. maybe you need to wall perfectly or something

I just hope DE is not going to implement all of the EP changes. Right now it is a big clusterfuck.

Banks are just not that good, especially considering that Dutch vills gather coin 20% faster now. A bank is equal to 3.82 vills (3.53 vills with placer mine) only, but cost you 700 resources, making Dutch quite vulnerable to late colonial push/early fortress timing. It isn't better than non-upgraded Kamcha houses, but kamcha house at least support 12 population.
It doesn't say you really build 0 bank in games, but 2-3 bank faster semiFF seems to be the meta. You hold the early fortress timing much easier, then send 1000w for the rest banks.

It's like 4.5vills because the bank doesn't walk and doesn't get raided
Huge xp equals 1 trading post
With so many pro players playing Dutch so dutch is the beneficiaries of the semi FF gang lobby.
I don't know why dutch is underrated.
