Much of AoM is currently dominated by Poseidon and Odin. These are both civs that mass cavalry, Hippeus and Raiding Cavalry. These units are great at fighting early on, and even better at raiding and controlling the map. Prodomos? Prodromos are definitely overtuned. They have so few no counters. You can basically mass them in late game and overpower even Egyptian Migdol armies. Classical age Hippeus and Raiding Cavalry is too effective. Contairus for Atlanteans are very potent as well, arguably the best anti-archer unit in the game. Retold is being increasingly defined by gods who have the best cavalry.
Might be because inf can’t body block them anymore to prevent surrounds.

Centaurs are still overpowered after the patch. Why can’t they fix it?

Centaurs are part of a bigger problem. As I have said some time ago, MU are generally overturned across the board, with few exceptions. Some have been nerfed the previous patch, others got nerfed this time around, plus heroes got buffed significantly vs MU, especially atty ones. Eggy crocs also got buffed vs MU, which should also make Ra more viable.
I still think this is a far cry from proper balance and we will have some hard weeks ahead when it comes to it.
My suggestion was to either significantly buff heroes across the board or nerf all MU (from 0.5 to 0.25). Seems devs are taking a hybrid approach. Will see how it works out.

The Centaur nerf did almost nothing. They are still way too overtuned.
Yes, they are still very strong against HU, but should be easier to deal with for heroes.
Also Poseidon centaurs get 0.4 speed buff, which is huge.
It’s true the balancing is still a lot of work in this game, the vanilla did it much better. Also a lot of smaller bugs are in the game showing that zeitgeist of the game industry, vanilla had less bugs and less balancing problems, this game have a lot like every new realeased game nowadays.
That’s intended. Myth units should be stronger and the centre of the gameplay. Some even should still be stronger than they currently are,
I don’t like the „nerf this and that and I like more „buff this and that too“.
It is certainly not intended, that’s why they get nerfed every patch.
it was i am very certain. but ppl complain and ask for nerfs. thats what they do. even its better to buff other things.
