I just want to start by stating that I am not 100% sure if they are new, but I have thought of them on my own and never saw anyone else do them, but if somebody did them before, you can let me know.

So anyways let's start:

These builds are a better version of the normal 4:30 with Hunting Dogs, and the 4:00 minute no Hunting Dogs Atlanteans Builds. The difference is they allow you to research focus right at the 22s mark (which is when you gather 2 favor to research it) and improve your scouting.
For those who don't know focus improves your Oracle speed by 10% and double their auto line of sight growth by 2. That means researching Focus early will net you better scouting whether you are using: The wait for los to grow method, or the walk around method to scout.


1st Build: Fast Focus 4:30 with Hunting Dogs

-1st Citizen builds economic guild, research Hunting Dogs, then put him on food
-2nd Citizen chops 5 wood and then get onto food
-Research Focus from economic guild
-And then continue with the normal 4:30 so for new players 1 wood, 1 gold, manor, 1 food , 1 food, temple, click advance at the 3:30 mark

2nd Build : Fast Focus 4:00 no Hunting Dogs

With this one we need to get creative. We are not building an eco guild. So we can't research focus from there. But we can get it from temple. So,
- First Citizen Build temple and then goes on food
- 2nd Citizen chops wood until you get 155 and then put him onto food
- Every Citizen from then on goes to food, preferably hunt so you can get a prefect 3:56 advance. Else it will be delayed a bit. You don't need many animals in starting base. I tested it on Oasis with 2 zebras and got a 3:59 advance. They need to be close from tc though.
-Build a manor with the 4th citizen to not get housed.
-Advance as soon as you hit 400 food.

And the perk of these builds? They don't delay your advance even by 1s if done perfectly regardless of your hunt situation. So if you are going for these builds in a normal game why not modify them and get better scouting. Often times Krush or raids fails because you let them sneak villagers on the black map, you haven't found their hunt or you haven't scouted their gold situation properly. With this build by the 4 min mark you should have scouted the entire map. The difference in scouting with fast focus and without can go to a screen worth.

Another advantage is that in maps like Oasis or Alfheim it mimics the double ulfsark advantage. So because of the better speed, you will be able to find the herdable more frequently which gives you a double boost: Give you food in base, in case you wanna krush and prevent them from getting food so you will be able to food starve them even better.

I tried to make them work for the 3:30 Krush and 4min with HD, but in these builds you are already advancing a bit later than you're supposed to, so there was no way to squeeze an additional 50 wood without delaying it more than 10s, which is bad considering their whole purpose is to advance as fast as possible.

That is it everyone, I hope you enjoyed these builds. If you have any feedback, of course I would like to hear it :)
And I forgot to mention this has been NoAtlantis if you're confused with the name.

nice,

i think this tech is mainly overlooked because its new functionality being mainly buffing the combat stats of the oracle, good to see some innovation in the field!
