Here are some stats from all the series of NAC3. Not counting qualifs and daut/vilese showmatch ofc. There were 25 sets in total: 20 from the group stage, 2 quarters, 2 semis and the grand final. 110 games of pure enjoyment!
Notable performances:
Britons - 10 wins in 11 non-mirror games (91%). Thanks to the iffy pathfinding/bumping of melee units on DE, that civ performed admirably well not only on a map like golden pit, but also on an open one like arabia.
Italians - 9 wins in 10 non-mirror games (90%). They asserted naval dominance by going 5v-1d against the Vikings on islands.
Aztecs are still a powerhouse on arabia, while the Huns struggled a bit
Mongols had a rough week, good thing they played mostly mirror matches. Only Persia had more.
Game and settings were obviously completely different, but funny how things have changed since NAC2. Franks, Berbers and to a lesser extend Indians were quite successful... not even a pick in NAC3.
Daut is unbeatable with the Bulgarians.
Rattan archers are unbeatable vs Daut.
I vote for a showmatch of Daut with Bulgars vs whoever with Vietnamese
No surprise here, but Islands and Arena were the most polarizing maps. They were picked or banned often and early.
Except for Golden Pit, most non-arabian maps could have used more love, sadly.
And Graveyards is still crying in a corner of nili's appartment </3
