Understanding Mictlan

[Xietor]

A couple of points, though i have never played Mictlan:

1. recently i have seen many players take dom 9 or 10 to start the game. Maybe just unlucky starts on my part, but in fallacy
most of my neighbors had awake pretenders and 9 dominion.

With 6 dominion, it was an early struggle to get more than 1 candle in my capital. I would have died for sure with 2 dominion.

2. I have fought against Jaguar Warriors, and I have to say with a triple bless, they are very hard to kill, especially when they are complimented by flying sacreds set to kill archers. But the negative scales mean you must be aggressive and attack constantly. If you are a player that likes to make treaties and build up, mictlan likely is not a race for you.

3. I like good scales, so i would not play Mictlan, but if i did, at a min. i would have f9 bless plus either a w9 or s9 bless. s9 is good because it gives them a 3rd life. w9 is good because they get quickness and close faster on their enemies. Extra attack is not really needed as a f9 blessed jag warrior typically kills whatever is in front of it quickly with its 3 attacks. But i have seen a triple 9 bless before, and early in the game that means death for most races facing them.
