Been playing with Malay a fair bit lately and having a fair bit of success. They quite good with the archer rush early game due to the quicker up time and in late game I think their ability to spam units is better than any other civ.
I played against a Goths opponent the other day and he tried the huskarl and champ spam. I was able to out spam and out number with karambit warriors mixed in with malay's discount price battle elephants. I had teched into forced levy for the food only 2HS but didn't end up getting a chance to switch into them and the karambit's did the job.
Once his numbers eased off a bit the karambit's were able to outrun his units and hit his eco in the back of the base and it was gg.
Against archer civs the Malay spam might not be as effective but they still have fully upgraded archers and skirms.
I'm only 1050 Elo so it might just be a competence thing. I'm wondering what higher level players think of The Malay vs Goth matchup. Are Malay an excellent counter to Goths?
