Elite Berserks are super good units, I absolutely love them. They're like Champions on steroids, similar to Elite Woad Raiders except that zerks eat woads for breakfast in melee combat.

Despite the fact that Viking Champions (84 HP) have more health than Elite Berserks (75 HP), zerks still win. Zerks also win against every other infantry unit with the exception of Teutonic Knights, Samurai, and Jaguar Warriors. They completely destroy all trash units, much better than champs do (because they move faster, have more armor, and regenerate), and they cost-efficiently beat most cavalry too, except Boyars. Units like Arbalests and Heavy Scorpions generally counter Elite Berserks, but in small numbers, the zerks win.
