if there was an AI that could play AoM almost perfectly, which God would it play best?

im talking about something like Google's deepmind AI, alphastar, which has gotten good enough at starcraft to beat pro players.

a bot like that would have ridiculous micro and multitasking, so I feel like it would benefit from Gods that require these skills the most.

I feel like my top candidates here are:

Loki

With Hall of Thanes and micro Hersir can dodge projectiles. Also the ox cart position will always be up to date so walking time to dropoff is virtually zero, and it will know exactly the right balance of dwarves/gatherers in certain situations.

Zeus

Its mainly going to be abusing centaur raiding; with multiple groups of centaurs being microed perfectly it is going to be extremely hard to deal with. Centaurs are also virtually impossible to hit with heroes when microed making them especially good under the hands of such a bot. Perhaps there is some counterplay to this by building walls though, and centaurs that spend all their time running arent spending their time shooting in fights even if they dont get it.

Ra

Ra is widely considered to be the strongest God in the game right now, and has certain quirks that an ai can benefit from. First he spends most of his time in his base so it may be hard to raid him, and raiding seems like the most likely problem an ai could have especially if it is from units such as centaurs, rocs or turma. The other aspect is the perfect micro on Camelry/Chariot archers can be abused since their extra speed means that chariot archers never get hit by arrows and can perform hit and run attacks against slower units, while Camelry can sort of protect them from cavalry really well and it would be very difficult to deal with.
