I have seen Heresy researched sometimes in arena, but not Faith. Are there situations/examples where it is researched in regular games?
Did he have Heresy too? I suppose he got that before Faith?Heresy won't let ur units become enemy ones, Faith will give u extra seconds to do damage
Used vs Edie in MoA3(?) Spanish vs Byz, the Paladins Surviving a bit longer was extra-helpfull
Ah ok, so it’s late imp thing when you have enough eco for the hefty price tag?I've seen it researched a couple times in BoA when someone was going for Battle ele's and the enemy had monks, an example would be the semi-finals Suomi vs TyRanT on Donut.
and I don't trust faith enough to stop this.
What are the situations where Heresy will be used then? (I’ve seen it used vs fast imp 9+3 range Monks before)There are 2 issues with Faith.
1) Cost
2) It's imp upgrade
Usually vs monk rush the game can go 3 ways. A) Smush in early castle kills or the defender kills the army, stop the push and wins because of better eco. Obviously no faith used.
B) Smusher puts pressure, defender makes enough towers/def castle, smusher has to switch to imp fwd castle trebs. Now defender has better eco, but usually will be later to imp, so he gotta play in castle. He might try to kill fwd castle or go raid smusher. No faith used.
C) Defender makes def castle, smusher goes for fwd one, it's a race to imp and trebs. Defender has slightly better eco, but usually just enough to add something like arbalests, definitely not res for faith, so again Faith can't be used even if the civ has it. Also, because of how costly the upgrade is, I'd only make it if I go eles in TGs and enemy has tons of monks (Aztec ones usually).
For 1v1 I'd say it's the second least made upgrade after spies. Only situation is using Burmese elephants, because they don't have heresy and Faith is 375/500 for them, which isn't that much if player already has eco for eles.

Was that the game, where you were pushed into the very last corner of your base and still won in the end? I thought you were Saracen in that game I have in mind. Definitely Stark vs someone. Best arena game i have ever seen.
