After playing extensively for months on rated i have only been to 1820 with Hades. I have noticed that his bonuses really dont reap in benefits like the other gods do.
Hades really shines on the water since he gets no water myth units and if he even manages to win a classical fight in the ocean and both u and the enemy make it to heroic he is lacking.
The enemy can make a couple of water myth units and u are stuck building hammer ships up the wazoo.
Another draw back i have noticed with Hades its horrendous to fight in the water and at land at the same time in classical since Hades bonuses rely on archers u can't build any while ur spamming tiremes on water/A poseidon player can just easily harass ur econ with hippokons and ur hopolites just eat up your time for heroic.
Its a losing situation if ur hades on water. Unless u wall up and turtle urself giving the other player map control.
Land maps are the only thing this nonversatile god can pull off.
