The affected player can practically do nothing literally nothing to defend against Kronos’s rush. I don’t understand why, if Kronos is so broken, the developers won’t nerf him… Yet, they prefer to nerf poor Loki, who can’t even train heroes from the Town Center to defend himself.
This could have played out different:
Demeter could have use her classic age god power much sooner through Pan to defend it entirely. Just place it coverinng the gold and woodline and you are set.
Loki could learn how to age up faster and defend against it. Like wise for Odin. The Kronos players put some effort into learning how to age up fast to rush, the loki player could put similar effort.
Either of the 2 Norse players using undermine when the 2 barracks/counterbarracks where being timeshifted side by side would have destroyed both of them. After that is just stomping on the automatons with the hersir + greek hero while covering you resources with demeters god power
Is it impossible? No
Does it require brain power and communication? Yes
PS: You should consider reading the patch notes, he has been getting buffs
I don’t like the fact that the base is so aproachable just 3 minutes into the game.
Although he got rushed by 3 players. Does Kronos rush needs to be nerfed? I don’t know but I don’t like that it is in the game. And I think Kronos rush just represents a far worse problem with AoM in general.
To be fair, If demeter hadn’t had helped, Went to TC and attacked the kronos players in their bases you would have won. Loki played well aswell I think.
True, i can def get behind people not liking early aggresion. Also in tgs god power combo get significantly stronger and you can for sure end a player quickly due to this power spikes.
That said, you can do better similar dynamics with norse forward build + huitz blood pact, or a cyclops, you can take down a TC very fast and take some one out of the game unless they defend properly or have very specific god Picks. Triple kronos is far from the most efficient way of doing so imo.
All the help she needed to do was cast the god power 3 mins earlier, send 1-2 heroes and loki would have been fine.
She could have ofc Just raided the kronos players since their base would have been very exposed due to them shifting all their Buildings away. That ofc requires thinking during the match which i guess can be Hard during chaotic events.
