In this game of Civ 6, we’ll be playing as Gorgo’s Greece, and I’ll be showing off one of the most broken strategy combinations in Civ 6 right now.
Pericles is generally considered one of the most powerful leaders in the game on a certain kind of city state heavy map, for good reason. Gorgo however needs to get more attention - with her combat strength, culture on kill and all of the usual benefits that come with Greece, Gorgo has one of the strongest early games the game has to offer.
In this game, I’ll be showing you just why this strategy with Gorgo can be considered to be so overpowered. Some would even say… BROKEN.

hey! a Sponsor congrats! :)
Hey Ryan, I think it would be funny to have a thumbnail of Gorgo mid-War Declaration/Denouncement getting a futbol Red Card that's a military policy card. It's fun to see how you play around seemingly small bonuses that become terrifying forces of nature
if you want to suffer, do a vanilla TSL Scythia Game.
if you want to have fun, do a minecraft Civ Game.
you liked the mario ones, i think you will like that too.
haven’t watched or played in a years, i don’t have any dlc do you have any videos that explain or recommend which ones to buy? great video
Golden Bear is sponsored!!!! Félicitations!!!
I said to myself "Gosh Darn It, Ursa, you're about to do a sponsor read... Good for you man get the bag!"
A sponsored video! Good job Ursa, you're making it happen!
Cheers :) yeah it's all a bit mad!
Ursa, it's brilliant(hehe) that you have a sponsor! it's well deserved! and for it to be a site like Brilliant that helps sharpen your brain, when your content is top-notch in terms of strategic play, it's a perfect strategic alliance for you and Brilliant! very very happy for you! and I love the sheer pressure you're putting on this domination strat! very nice to be in the aggressor's seat for a change in civ 6!
Cheers! Yeah I was really pleased :)
13:25 a little bit of misplay here. you should always fortify first before promoting or pillaging. Unlike moving, they don't break the fortify stance. As you already know, fortify stance heals you and gives you a defensive bonus.
A fellow chemistry major? I had no idea. Congratulations on your first sponsorship (I think)!
Cheers! Haha attempted Chemistry degree. The results were less than satisfactory
should have went for king,you seem to be good at kinging.
Congrats on the sponsorship
Thank you!
I just wanna watch the next episode rn. Ugh why is your content so addictive
It's because I'm so sweet I'm almost entirely sugar
What a saccharine response.🤘
-Barb slinger : our stones will block out the sun! -Spartans : then we will fight in the shade .
Look at our boy, now he comes with sponsors! Good for you!
Archaeology major here, although school may seem hard, it is worth powering through it. Congratulations on the sponsorship!
yes, though for some this specific train may have passed, your advice is spot on. Education, higher or regular, for old or young, is always useful. Just ask the various graduates of The University of Sankore on this channel too!
Cheers both :)
Congrats on that sponsored video Ursa ! I hope you get a lot more, it's deserved, you do a great job with your videos :)
Thanks so much = )
21:40 armagh: mountains on 3 sides, a river between the city center and all other adjacent tiles, and only two tiles that can attack the city with ranged attacks
ursa: "that is a very siegeable city"
Apparently everything's very seigable for Gorgo😂
Armagh thought they were helms deep
Congratulations on your sponsor.
Cheers :)
I remember my first sub-200 turn win on Diety was with Gorgo. Managing to capture most of Brazil’s cities by the time I met a third civilization really helped out.
You got a sponsor, Ursaaa!! Congratss! Nice to see you grow :3 I remember when you had barely 10k subs! keep it up :3
Seems like it was so recent!
thanks for the content UR! early bears unite!
Huzzah!
I don't always watch sponsor segments... But when I do, it's on an Ursa Ryan video
XD
NICE SPONSORSHIP BUDDY! Glad you've got a good surplus going.
Aaaa, a sponsor! This is fantastic! I'm so glad that this community is so excited for you. I think it reflects very well on them!
Congrats on the sponsorship, you deserve it. Been awesome seeing your channel grow for the last year or two I've been watching 👍
Killing Mexico City makes m cry a little though. Such a great suzerain bonus.
Cheers = ) Yeah a different strat this game, I love that city state!
I'm so excited that Macedon spawned - Hoplite vs Hetairoi and Hypaspist sounds fun to watch.
Also congrats on the sponsor!!
A match up to enjoy indeed! Cheers = )
Very efficient (and sadly overlooked) strat. Props for pointing out the diplo exploit for folks while continuing to resist!
Haha, I really want to take part in it again soon
OMG!! Congrats on the sponsorship, Ursa!!!!!!
Cheers :)
I swear it's something about studying chemistry that draws us to civ. One of my other friends, she was on my chem course, never really played any strategy games before unless you count Mario Kart.
It wasn't long before she understood Sean Bean and One More Turn
Also congrats on the sponsor, actually decently placed and not too disruptive so nicely done
But aside from that, hey that's extra cash to make this gig easier for you and that's better for all of us :)
£441 - If you can't attend STEM at the University of Sankore, the next best thing is to use Brilliant.
Looking forward to the offical Sankore app
Just in case you didn't try it in your play testing - you must use a rock band as one of the Mario Leaders. Well at least as Peach as that is the one I did.
I need to go back and try it!
I've never been so excited for an ad transition. We are impressed.
Congrats on the sponsor! Well-deserved. And congrats on smashing those city states!
Early wars always trip me up, I can never seem to get the tempo right so this will be a great run to watch.
Huge congratulations on getting sponsored and 40k is right round the corner! You and sleepybear should be really proud of what you've achieved with this channel.
We're verey proud, thank you = )
25:02 you probably know this, but a lot of people seem to not (I know my friends didn't). The reason you get a "boost" has to do with the eras of the tech. Whenever you are working on something from an era that is farther along (like classical era while you are in the Ancient) you have (at least) a 20% penalty. When working on a tech from a previous era (working on sailing while in the Classical) you get a 20% discount. This means that Engineering became 20% cheaper (lost penalty) while the other Ancient era techs became cheaper (gained 20% discount).
This also is useful from a strategic standpoint: beelining a tech means you get it potentially several era's early, but since it costs so much more, it is equivalent to taking a 20% nerf to your science output (your science isn't stretching as far as it should). However, when backfilling old techs, you get a 20% boost until you catch up to the current era, which is why you can 1-2 turn techs from previous eras so easily. Unless you are beelining something specific, you should always focus your efforts spreading out and getting every tech from the current era and before to save on science and culture costs.
Congrats on the sponsor !
Cheers :)
Always love to see a Gorgo game. I remember when you did your Tier List and I mentioned she was in my top 5 for leaders. That hoplite push is pure sauce, and unlike someone like Hungary (who has a similarly powerful early push, but honestly not much else), the rest of the greek kit is incredible.
In a completely unrelated topic, I considered being a Chemistry major myself. But Organic was at 8 AM, and I worked at a bar that closed at 2. No way I was gonna drag myself out of bed on short-sleep to suffer through learning the difference between and aldehyde and a keytone! So I did physics instead, where none of the classes started before 11!
Haha, that's a fair way to pick a course!
a sponsored video from ursa congrats man you deserve more than 38k subs with would think you had 100k from the quality
Appreciated, thank you = )
Woohoo! Sponsor! And this looks amazing. I always liked playing Gorgo, but I don't think I really appreciated how good those hoplites could be!
Yeah she can be an absolute rollercoaster of a leader = )
Huzzah for sponsor! Well deserved!
Cheers :)
I never really do early domination so I learned so much from your explanations here! 😊
Glad you're enjoying = )
Congrats on the sponsor! Well deserved.
thank you for showing us these awesome strategies and fun gameplay options! you always show us interesting and different ways to have fun in civ 6!
ursasponsor 👍
Congratulations on the sponsor. I had the Brilliant app, I’ll revisit now I’m reminded about it.
Cheers = )
Sleepy but for once, early. Huzzah!
Huzzah!
That perfectly straight river was tripping me up for a solid 5 minutes
Congratulations, Ursa!
Cheers = )
Loved this one. Gorgo is my all time fav, but never played her this well
Poooog o you have a sponser
!!!
a fine addition to my collection
I'm loving your daily civ videos so much
Really glad you enjoy them, thanks for watching!
Eyyyyy sponsered! Fabulous stuff Ursa. Funding our bear 😁
XD
I've never been happier to see a sponsored message. Congrats!
Cheers = )
You can settle directly on the citrus so you can trade it faster and grow faster as you keep the 3 food!
hi ursa bear! love your videos man keep up the good work!
Huzzah for the sponsorship
Huzzah!
Gorgo is a beast
Such a fantastic civ and leader! Gorgo was my first win on emperor (started Germany prince, Montezuma king, then Gorgo emperor).
Sooo many envoys! Suze all those that you can, conquer those that you cannot. Huzzah!
Huzzah! Sounds like a lot of fun = )
OMG Ur sponsored!!! Congrats!!!
Nice!
The Bear got sponsored! Well deserved Mr Sir! :)
Cheers = ) All very ood!
Eyyyy congrats on the sponsor!
Cheers = )
Huzzah!!! The earliest of bears
Huzzah!
i saw that single marsh tile and immediately knew you were going for lady of the reeds. im currently 16 minutes and have had that confirmed. curious to see when/if you'll clear that tile 😂
Hehe, I'm too predictable
It's that prioritisation of early game momentum which I suspect is the source of my difficulties with early game offensive plays, as I have a rather strong bias toward optimising for the long term and then waiting out the high difficulty AI's early game advantage in settlers and starting military. Stuff like saving up gold to buy the +5 adjacency campus tile, rather than making do with a +2; choosing city centre locations for their place in long run district arrangements and tile coverage, rather than prioritisting better starting tiles; a reluctance to chop non-hill woods tiles, saving them for lumber mills; etc. As such I don't often reap the benefits of ancient era unique units, especially the warrior replacements (the higher production cost of gaesatae and eagle warriors certainly doesn't help matters).
(Also: just a reminder that you can fortify a unit, cancel the action and then promote it without losing the fortification; it's a small defensive boost that takes very little effort once you get into the habit of doing it).
Yeah jumping into short term, snowballing advantages reaps huge dividends later = )
Huzzah!!🐻🐻
Huzzah!
Brilliant needs a whole dedicated civilization class where you learn the game
Congrats on a sponsor!
Cheers = )
I only have base game and greece is one of my favs, nice and versatile
Rapidly approaching 40k!
Love it!
Huzzah! Sponsorship! Huzzah! :D
Oh yeah: Huzzah! Greece! Huzzah! ;)
Huzzah!!!
You got a sponsor. Congratulations
23:00 --> Whaat? No pillaging?
Where is the real Ursa? =D
Its amazing seeing hard working content creators get rewarded wirh sponsors
Congratulations on the sponsor
Cheers = )
May dommy mommy lead the bears to victory!
OMG! He did a Thermopylae in 8:10
I put this down at 6:00: I bet there's gonna be Iron on the hill next to the three mountains in the east
EDIT: 12:47 nope, thank God I'm wrong
Hoplite teams are an absolute terror on slower game speeds.
Marathon speed games are terrifying for stuff like this!
Dying to see if Ursa actually builds any amphitheaters to claim era score bonus (I say this out of love because it seems like such a sidetrack from your stated goals for this game, and I find that selection to be far less valuable than getting Eurekas or even converting cities)
I absolutely overestimated how many I was going to build!!!
a sponsor! congrats!
Cheers = )
yay a sponsor
11:30 tonight we dine in hell!
What a sponsor!
Ikr madness
I whish the t1 save was up same time as the video :D
It's up now! :)
can you play gran colombia sometime? it was such a long time since i saw someone play them
Yeah I'm very tempted!
University of Sankore only accepts the most Brilliant of Early Bears
Be careful not to train your Hoplites in a city with too much of a food surplus, or they become Hopheavies...
Hahaha oh dear
Just a thought, can you suze a city state, levy its army, then delete all the units, before attacking it?
Absolutely! It's very expensive on gold and envoys but you certainly can
Sponsored video let's goooo!!!
Isn't the "would you like to sample the hospitality of our nearby city" button one sided? And exchanging info on our capitals an equal trade of info. Usually when I scout and discover civs I don't think they would get info on me. Would love to know if anyone has a definitive answer on this question
It depends.
If your unit discover their border then the diplo screen will give you sampling their city.
If their unit discover your border then the diplo is sample My city (you give them visibility).
If your unit meets their unit then the diplo action is Exchanging visibility.
Kapeesh?
How the hell did no great scientists get taken
Small map - depends on who spawns in!
early-rush games are the best! Yay!
Always been one of my favourite strats this one!
Yasss
Early bear huzzah!
Huzzah!
bad first city location, mind boggling
tiles south are just so much better
I like that he sounds how isorrowproductions used to pretend to sound like
Hahaha because we're both english??
@@UrsaRyan I think partially. He used to push his voice a bit higher in his early videos so that adds to it too- that and the English is probably all it is for me
Hey Ursa, i recently started my own civ 6 channel. if you could give me one piece of advice what would it be?
Spend much longer on the edit than you do the gameplay = ) Best of luck!
Algorithm 269
wooohoo sponsorship
🎉
This is a Great strategy but you want to avoid culture because you want to keep the card for production towards anti-chivalry for as long as possible. A similar strategy to what Ursa has shown is called: Gorgo Salt Storm. this strategy is almost like the Aztec one but instead of spamming eagles, you spam hoplites (Aztec: make 3 cities and spam eagles) (Gorgo: make 3 cities and 3 encampments with barracks and spam hoplites, pillage your way out of debt). Not even civs like Sythia can survive this and it can leave people very salty in multiplayer as hoplites are dirt cheap and you will reach the thousands in military strength at no time. This strategy falls out by the industrial era, around the time where people get field cannons. Hoplites are 38 CS next to another Hoplite, +4 from oligarchy (42 CS), +4 from military policies in oligarchy (46 CS), +5 from great generals (51 CS), add flanking, and you have the equivalent to musketmen that are dirt cheap and cost no strategic resources, and you get them in the ancient era.
Just to note - feudalim's card still works on hoplites, it doesn't go obsolete = ) and hoplites don't get a benefit from great generals. Still, totally agree, 3 cities and spam is a great strat!
