Like I've said it was a 5 FFA not a 1v1. Mictlan's early rush is just almost impossible to beat without a specific build. You won't make a specific build against XY nation/player in an FFA game. I know that QM is an excellent player, but this has nothing to do with the fact, that Mictlan can field much more sacreds than most of other nations. Since their sacreds are good and cheap, with a proper bless they are rolling. In a couple of turns you can have a small army from those sacreds. So if you have 30 sacreds with nation X, and like 10 with nation Y, in the same time, we can talk about massing if you ask me.
Just for the record, I've also used rush tactic against many players in the blitzes with certain nations, and needless to say that they couldn't do anything. This all happens because of the imbalances of sacreds/blessings.

Agreed. There are imbalances in uber blesses in current blitz settings. However, I do not think Mictlan is one of the culprits in this situation. Van/Helheim holds the current imba bless medal currently IMO. Catch me in the channel sometimes if you can and I'll duel your rush tactic. The key to defeating /most/ rush tactics in blitzes is to be prepared for them. Obviously if you're running around with a human pretender and focused on a building up strat you'll get stomped against an uber bless. I remember my first encounter with an uber bless I thought it was imba as well but I stomped it pretty thoroughly after I changed my strat/build. IMO, currently the BIGGEST problem is Order gives you too much gold. Every uber bless can just take order 3 and sack every other scale without any significant disadvantage.
