March 4, 2023 at 1:47 pm #17366 Anonymous PlayerMember Anonymous PlayerMemberI’m curious about the typical skill level in Age of Empires 2. As an 1100 ELO player who selects civilizations at random, I’m wondering if I’m an average player. Despite there being no clear answer on what an average ELO is, I’d like to hear your opinion on the matter. March 4, 2023 at 1:47 pm #17367 IhaveSonarGuest IhaveSonarGuest1000 elo is the average for ranked players, so you are slightly above average compared to the ranked playerbase. However, a LOT of the playerbase doesn’t play ranked at all, and most of them are very likely worse than an average ranked player. (I would love to find statistics on exactly how many regular unranked players there are. I suspect there are quite a few.) Outside of that….. “Good” is entirely subjective. Define it however you want. Hera feels like he isn’t good when he loses to viper in grand finals of an S-tier tournament. 600 elo players feel like they are good when they beat their 400 elo friends. I wouldn’t worry about it too much.

Kinda the point of the elo system.

March 4, 2023 at 1:47 pm #17373 Denikin_TsarGuest Denikin_TsarGuestBasically anything less than 2.3k ELO is noob. Below 1.8k you are absolute trash Just kidding obv !!!! 1100 I would say is right around average. I know in theory 1000 is average, but there are many losing players who drop down to low ELOs and never play and thereby artificially raise everyone else’s ELO. March 4, 2023 at 1:47 pm #17374 iswerimnotblindGuest iswerimnotblindGuestyou are above average if thats the question. IT depends on what you consider good. March 4, 2023 at 1:47 pm #17375 contemporaryAmericaGuest contemporaryAmericaGuest1250 or so TG elo maybe 1200 1v1 to me is “good” ie you typically don’t see terrible late-timed FC or imp play on closed maps, feudal military production is consistent and quality, you see flashes of excellent meta ie great timing maa rush, players have the ability to respond to trushes, castle drops etc and don’t quit. Below that it starts becoming a complete crap shoot and can get really frustrating to play TG March 4, 2023 at 1:47 pm #17376 wanderingmonk_aoe2Guest wanderingmonk_aoe2GuestEveryone better than me is a pro. Everyone worse than me is a noob. I am the average player. March 4, 2023 at 1:47 pm #17377 WillyMacShowGuest WillyMacShowGuestThe goal is the largest group of players is 1000 Elo. But in reality the the middle is more like 950. 1100 is pretty good. I’d say the jump from 1000 to 1100 is a pretty big barrier to hop. 1100 Eli’s is top 1500 USA. 1300 is top 500 US. And by the time you get to 1600 you’d be a top 100 player US. Slims down fast! March 4, 2023 at 1:47 pm #17378 TsrLightGuest TsrLightGuestAbove average and far from good. 1100 still have a lot of major weakness. For me someone good is around 1800-2000 where everyone knows the mechanics and macro, strategy defines who wins March 4, 2023 at 1:47 pm #17379 FloosWorldGuest FloosWorldGuestWith 1000 Elo you’re officially in the Top 50 % of all players. March 4, 2023 at 1:47 pm #17380 kokandevattenGuest kokandevattenGuest1100 is above average. I wouldnt say good, but definitely not bad.
