This video feels like its from 2010.

Number VI: 4 I knew at this moment that this wouldnt be the best video

The ottoman empire is great for domination victory on archipelago, tiny islands or other similar maps because they only pay 1/3 the cost of naval units meaning you can build a navy three times bigger than usual and decimate any coastal city

I remember the first attempt I did with winning as Korea. I started right next to the Zulus. Spent the whole game fending them off and Babylon won.

Number four in Roman Numerals is IV (VI is six)

Good video! I seem to always win when playing Nebukadnezar or Boudicca, but will try Korea right away!

old gold right here! love you man!

I usually find Brazil and Assyria quite bad. Brazil usually starts in jungles, and while they improve them through their Brazilwood camps, it is not enough to make up for this. Jungles are terrible, limiting in both early game resources, versatility and movement. The tourism bonus is quite small, considering it really is the only bonus in it. Assyria on the other hand is just plain worse than other war civs, from my experience. The technology taking is often insignificant, since decent strategy allows you to keep a technological advantage. My list would be: 1. Egypt 2. Korea 3. Babylon 4. Poland 5. Huns The worst are: 1. Iroquois 2. Netherlands 3. Denmark My favorites: 1. Venice 2. Poland 3. Shoshone

Science: Babylon Culture: Sweden (friendly) Diplomatic: Greece Domination Land:Japan Domination Sea: England Well rounded: Morocco, Venice, Egypt. Early Game: Shoshone & Ethiopia Best Unique Unit: Ship of the Line, Pathfinder, Longbow-men and Samurai

Ican......A bunch of Desert Hills, a river flowing nearby, some mountains for terrace and petra... get set and match. Averge tile purduction can easily be 6 (between food, produce etc)

1. Poland 2. Babylon 3. Korea 4. Mayans 5. Arabia Mayans and Arabia are debatable but I'd say the top 3 are objectively the best civs. Although, their order is debatable.

Poland is the most broken Civ. A free social policy every era means you can open rationalism as soon as you get into renaissance, and a 2nd tier tenet when you found an ideology though modern era advancement. Plus, there are single tenets and policies that are more powerful than the civ bonuses themselves. (5 year's plan, for example)

I feel like this guy should not try to be funny, it would be a lot more enjoyable.

I d probably mention india and montezuma ... but the civs you mentioned are great as well

After I was told you would play some Civ V ,I should have seen this coming

my 2 fav picks are Austria and the Shoshone, Both have INSANELY POWERFUL leader bonuses

My favorite Civ is Shoshone because if you have liberty you can get enourmous lands quick and work them to.

Awesome video, bro!

I love England, extra spies and better naval units are really helpful ( especially on islands map which I play the most) lets you bombard enemy cities safely and quickly mobilise naval units to help land troops, and spies really help add religious pressure and control world congress

Inca, Babylon, Aztec, Poland, Korea, Maya. Can't name a top 5 out of these 6, they are all just god-tier in single player. These civs have consistent and powerful science bonuses, either directly or through growth/culture. Civs that make you inclined to build wonders are bad, at least on Deity, since Deity is won quite easily as long as you are not tempted to build wonders (until you know you are first to the tech that enables them) but just build infrastructure and military. Civs that help early game defense through units or production, or otherwise have a good early game, are also good picks. Exmples are Huns, Russia, Persia and Greece.

I try to pick civs by which achievements I haven't yet unlocked. From my experiences with previous versions of Civ, I tend to prefer cultural victories or the Alpha Centauri victory. I also LOVE building Wonders, and getting freebies from the city-states, so a diplomatic victory is good for me, too (and often attainable before the Alpha Centauri victory, depending on how many civs are in play).

Shoshone - more tiles at city start - pathfinders upgrade to composite bows(great to hunt down visitors hunting for ruins near you) - lets you choose what resource ruins have to offer(4 ruins can upgrade 2 pathfinders to composite bow)

Awesome intro bro xD

With Babylon you get a shit ton of science if you rush writing and you will discover techs in 3 turns in ancient/classical

In my opinion, my most favored Civ is Arabia. Due to it's start bias and Uniques if you get a combination of Desert Folklore (religious) and Petra then you have an amazing time with a mass of gold and prosperity. This allows for advances into any of the victory types due to completing certain trees and purchasing buildings with gold and great people with your abundance of faith + gold.

My favorite civs to play as for now (I havent played all of them yet) - Venice (incredibly easy diplomatic victory by giving money to all city states) - Japan (great abilities and units) - Polynesia (Moai spamming and insane advantage when exploring in an archipelago map) - Netherlands (Polders and the sea beggars are great. The unique ability is situational but with full commerce its great) - Inca's (I love Terrace farms and mobility in mountains)

Of these 5, Korea is probably the only one I really agree with. It's definitely one of the top 2-3 civs, maybe #1. I think Rome is better than most of these. 25% bonus toward building construction for anything already built in the capital makes expansion cities build most of their buildings in only 80% of the time. Greece is another. Their bonus with city-states ends up giving you tons of extra culture/faith/happiness/food/resources as you make friends and allies, as well as giving you a lot of extra military to harass your enemies in wartime. Late game, you can easily solo vote yourself world leader for a diplomatic victory. I've just started trying the Shoshone, who are also pretty good. Their Scout replacement (Pathfinder) is very strong, upgrades to a composite bowman, and the best thing about them is they get to choose the reward from ruins. Their special ability to start with more land when they settle instantly gives you a lot more valuable tiles when you start a city. Upgrade 1-2 Pathfinders to Comp Bowmen super early, and clear barbarians like crazy to earn culture (with Honor) and city-state quests. but then, I guess it depends on play style. I prefer to rush Wonders and expand for faster culture accumulation. I think the global bonuses from certain wonders and policies make victory so much easier, and is better than amassing a huge army for conquest.

1. Babylon 2. Celts 3. Korea 4. Shoshone 5. Assyria Thats my list. I also rlly like ethiopia

Against a competent player, that Jungle start will get you slaughtered long before mid-game. Top 5 are Poland for their incredible amount of free social policies, Persia for that movement bonus during golden ages, Babylon and Korea for that ridiculous science boost, and Attila for that early game hammer bonus and horse archers. Other contenders could be the English for getting early range 3 units, Egypt for those unique chariots of theirs, Chinese for their Chu-Ko-Nu and extra generals which will help them dominate medieval warfare. Brazil and Assyria are pretty damn far behind all of the ones I've mentioned.

I wholeheartedly appreciate the intro theme not being louder than the nuking of Hiroshima (like every other video game guide video out there)

It twas a good video and I liked the humor.

In one of my games as England on Prince difficulty, Egypt wasn't building Wonders as fast as I. Becuase of this 95% of the wonders of the World were located in London XD

Its an interesting selection but based on my experience none of those would be my top 5. Poland is such a broken civ, getting 7 free social policies, a free building that gives production, gold, and xp. their unit (especially with Alhambra) can stand up to riflemen and calvary. it should always be at the top of the list. others would be Arabia, England, Korea, and Ethiopia.

Honestly I think Poland is number 2 or 3 in the game, mainly they the main civ I choose but also because of there ability,. In one of my games had 4 social trees finished and my idiology finished before 1950, this gives such a boost.compared to other civs

I like English, the movement bonus with the great lighthouse makes the ships sail around the map so fast. The ship of the line can dominate any water centric map. Their longbows with the range can snipe out any attacking civs with ease and their spies can keep your science up to date as you get a stolen science every 10-15 turns.

FilthyRobot's civ tier list is a lot better imo

id recommend morocco because their trade buff helps a lot with making money and with that money you can do a lot if you use it wisely

my favs are scientific nations that can produce decent military units so i may not have the best unique units but i still have theoretically a really advanced civ and therefore can crush other ppl's unique units with ease so i choose civs like korea, america, and a few others that may not science at all in their civ description but if u go for mainly science, growth, and money and of course military its a really powerful nation

England is also a pretty Flexible Civ,i almost won all victories with England in one game just kept focusing on one then another

What difficulty do you usually play on?

"Number 6: Egypt" Lul

PERSIA is AWESOME !!!!🙆 I also like ROME and it's really good.

From his comment on Babylon "Tech ahead of ur opponent...", pretty sure he hasn't even got past Prince difficulty.

Every time I play Civ games I onlly enjoy the ancient era and the mid game when the earth is being discovered. After that is just boring move after move. The map doesn't change. Nothing to explore.

So you've played this 1 time?

Always appreciate humour ! It takes Brain to have a Sence of humour

I have to confess I've played only at immortal difficulty,never tried diet.But I love panagea/ oval map type,thus the game becomes more aggressive from the early stage. IMO Spain is the most OP.

Am I the only one who plays Greece? with around 8 city states as your allies you have all the resources and seats you ever need. Korea is pretty good too

The zulu is amazing

I don't know. Why did they make Babylon leader like some kind of drunk necromancer?

i feel taht the finish civ is the best :)

But i can't pick assyria. Cause i play gods and kings, not brave new world. Is there some way i can download assyria for gods and kings?

Every civilization would perform best with 3-4 copies of salt on the plains. Korea, Babylon, Poland, and Soshone with this luxury would be the power house of continent.

Songai because it is the only one I have used so far because I play on epic

Best civ overall: 1. Babylon (science) 2. Poland (Adaptation) 3. Maya (adaptation) 4. Korea.(Science) 5. Arabia (Religion) Most fun civ: 1. China. (Chu-ko-nu) 2. Shoshone (exploration) 3. Egypt (Wonders) 4. Celts (early start) 5. Austria (City States) Most boring civ: 1. Venice (only one town) 2. Ethiopia (small empire) 3. India (Small empire) 4. Byzantines (religion and Underpowered) 5. France (cultural is mostly boring) Korea is moved down to 4 due to slow start and is at risk early game, especially at Deity. Babylon is strongest with fast science early game and great defences. Maya and Poland can survive anything from start and Arabia is just overall strong.

lol, 4 in roman numerals is IV not VI

My top 5 list: 1. Babylon 2. Inca 3. Arabia 4. Ethiopia 5. Korea Bottom 5: 1. Venice 2. Iroquois 3. Constantinople 4. Byzantium 5. Siam My 5 favorites to play as: 1. Maya 2. Inca 3. Arabia 4. Babylon 5. Celts

Shoshone, Rome... etc missed quite a few great ones

Pocatello definitely should be in top 5! I often play the easiest and quickest possible level with all civs and out of them pocatello is the best. With liberty as social policy and 3 free settlers from ruins you receive 4 free cities and three workers (2 or 3 from ruins)

I think the best civilization is Rome. In my opinion legions and ballistas are really op and the 25% production bonus when you build buildings that are already done in the capital is amazing

Wall street journal?

Number VI=6 four egypt?

I think England is also not bad especially on water based maps

Spain. If you found your cities within 3 tiles of a natural wonder youll be unstoppable

Aren't the zulus the only playable civ?

My top 5 list: 1. India (excessive happiness) 2. Poland (free policy) 3. Korea (Technology way ahead) 4. Greece (City-state licker) 5. Egypt (Wonder-full)

Not watched the vid, but my favourite is poland. Bunch of free social policies is pretty niice

#1 better be ghandi or i swear

Top 5: 1) Korea 2) Poland 3) Babylon 4) Arabia 5) Egypt

My favorite civ is Japan, they're good for both a domimation and a cultural victory. I really like their bonus, bushido, where all units doesn't matter how wounded they're still deal the same damage as if they had full HP. this gives you a huge advantage when you are fighting other civs, city states and babarians

Why isnt venice at n1?

N4 with VI

Shoshone is by far one of the best... they start out with a special unit called Pathfinder, that acts as an explorer only they get to choose which hut rewards you get.... It upgrades into a composite bowman also...

May I point out that Denmark always takes over entire continents in every game he's in whenever I ply?

To buy tiles affordably America's great!!

My dad and I like Pocatello

Love this! But, no Japan?? They’re full strength military ability just seems so versatile and helpful thru the early-late game! Besides that I agree with almost this entire list!

Why is your number four displayed as VI? It means six dude.

I'd have put Poland on the list personally. There may not be a lot of ages, but there are enough for Poland to have an entire social policy tree for free.

Just gonna throw out how op poland actually is and should be in number one and not in honorble metions in best civ list. On paper they might not sound that good but if you think about it they can get maximum 8 extra policys in the game and thats more than a full policy branch and if you have policy saving on you could get 7 - 8 extra ideology tenents straight away which is huge. Also their stable producion is so amazing

At number four he had the Roman Six symbol instead of the Roman Four symbol.

PEDRO THE SECOND RULES

what about Gandhi and Hails Selassie?

Actually this depends whether you are playing against randoms or against friends. All in all however, culture is shit, human players don't give you open borders or anything when they see you are building culture wonders. Diplomacy is impossible since players will take all the city states and (if playing with friends) cooperate to prevent you from getting UN votes through. You are left with science and domination. And IMO best civs are some sorts of combinations of these 2 preferably with religion to boost either one. In our multiple games our tier list would look something like this: S: Babylon (science) Inca (good spawn with high production and ability to defend its lead due to hills) The Zulu (domination) A: Maya Arabia Ethiopia Aztec China

Why not polynesia?

Poland, Korea, Egypt, Babylon

Culture - France Domination - Japan Science - Babylon Dyplomacy - never did it

number VI Egypt?

That intro was cheesier than all of those buzzfeed cooking vids combined

I vote Spain the most op

This is a very bad top-5 list. Inca and Poland as honorable mentions? I don't even...

1 is Korea When I play im beside Gandhi

‘Number VI’ Number four *Number four*

I personally play as skynet. Mods rule lmao.

why no Germany, or at least Russia? The Siberian riches is an awesome abillity since it enhaces both production and the ammount of certain resources(More nukes than Ghandi) so it allows you to have a versatile playstyle

Inca is my fav

roman numerals were wrong on 4

I think you are underastemating poland. They get a total og 7 social policys and are THE best Civ. Also here is my list: 1:poland 2: Babylon 3:inca 4:Korea 5: Persia

2:11 you made it so number four is number six in Roman numerals.

Where is Alexander?
