Well the title almost says it all what's the best god power that you can get in a game (not stuff like spc meteor but normal meteor is fine.) It would also be nice to know the best combo.
I don't care if it's your opinion or if you some how acutely know through some testing.

Best combos are rag+fw and a/e.
Best individual gp is ceasefire.

Vortex by far, all your military units warped to anywhere you want and you get to use it 3 times

I can't believe no one mentioned Earthquake. Sure, it isn't too devastating to experienced players, but for those who are just getting in to the game, an earthquake in the middle of a town or neighborhood can do wonders.
Also, in my experience, assuming you have a good upper ground on the opponent, Plenty Vault can help you build the army necessary for the final confrontation. Again, though, these are best against less experienced players.

Many people say rag is the best gp but i disagree. When someone uses rag they are doing it only because they have lost. Dont forget that rag gets you heros, normal units crush heros. Also if you are losing, which you are if you are using rag, the person your facing has a better army, more tcs, and controls the map which means more resources. Once you use rag your dead because by the time you build more vills your "awsome" heros have been kill without doing much damage and you cant replace them with normal units because you have no vills. I just played a game where 2 people used rag against me and i still won because they could not make a army after I beat their heros. I would say the best gp would be something that destroys someones econ, like locust or gps like that. This makes them have to muilti task and not focus on their army but their econ, meanwhile you can crush their army and barracks with the other person resigning because they lost both their econ, and army.

Rag isn't that strong... against an 18++ Isis with Migdols/Towers/Mercs. 20+ minutes into a game against isis i probably go fimbul and try to cut trade with FW+FW.
Of course 20+ into a game vs isis as thor is a pretty bad sign already...
And if you think Rag is actually "weak", then you just aren't building an economy. You should have 50+ rag heroes, minimum. And caravans set up so if you fall under 160 pop, you can make a few FG to back them up while your villis go to food.

While that is true and you get a ton of extra fighting units it also hurts your econ very badly. I am not trying to say that rag it a awful gp, but it is not one of the best. I have played many games vs both good and bad players and while rag did give them a huge boost to break through defenses, it also weakened them a lot because their econ became worse then mine and I am able to win. Again I dont mean to say that it is awful and never works, because I have seen it work. But I dont think that it would be the best gp. Another thing to remember is that you only get the gp in mythic age and by then you should be able to tell who won. Even if you use rag you might be able to pull of a win but most of the time I see it as a way to just delay the defeat or make victory come faster.

First of all I am not a odin player, I play as Oranos. Second I have played many, many games that have been decided by rag. Sometimes I lose, sometimes I win, and I am not playing with noobs. I win because I prepare for it when I play against norse because many norse players go for rag when the game is at a stand still. As I said before I am not saying that rag is a bad gp, I just think that it is overrated. All you have to do is be aware that the norse player has it and get ready for him to use it because he most likely will. If you do this you will find that rag is not as powerful a gp as you first thought.

Unless you are fighting people who are not as good as you some games come out where nether player can break through the others defenses. Not all games end up like this but when they do it turns into a game to see who can build a titan faster or a wonder. I do not like to get a titan unless I have too because I feel that it takes no skill to make a titan. The same goes with a wonder. I always try to win without those things unless I have no other option. Again not all games are stand stills, but if you play against people of your own rating a stand still will happen sometimes.
