Simple straight question: Are Mayans OP?
Yes, I know the trend is to claim Hindustanis and Gurjaras are OP (and they might be, of course). But since I started to play Aoe 2 competitively, I can't stop thinking Mayans are OP.
Here, take a great eco. Lost your army? NP put 3 Archery Range extra and make them again LOL they're so cheap.
Your arbs getting countered? NP take Eagle warriors with the same HP that a fricking cavalry unit.
That combo cost lots of gold, no? NP, take Resources that last longer.
So you massed a lot of army and running out of gold? NP, take the upgrade for the probably best archer in the game. Yeah, no gold needed. Just Wood and Food would do, because why not?
I know I'm no pro, but as far as I understand, every civ is supposed to be weak against something, or at a certain moment of the game. Mayans for me are only weak in post imperial games, where there are no more golds (and even there, they have FU Halbs + Skirms that are better that FU, like decent trash even without light cav line).
I think that some bonus should be either tweaked or taken away. either tweak the archer discount, to make them less strong during Feudal or Castle, or maybe reduce El Dorado to 30 HP... idk, something.
