Being agi build with no backup on EU1 server looks like this:

1) spawn
2) since you're faster than almost everyone else you are among the first people to spot an enemy
3) get shot by either Agor (70% of your HP gone) or some random arrow (30% gone)
4) get couched by some mighty fine GK player who managed to come behind our whole team before most of us spawned
5) get in fight with one or two guys, hit them couple of times (they are STR heavy builds fully loomed) just to be stabbed from behind by their buddy pikemen which usually results in death
6) get into brawl with your comrades just to be hit by some friendly STR build who likes to kill his enemies by spamming blindly
7) get into fight just to be shot by friendly archer (if it's Zerobot1 it's usually friendly headshot which means death)
8) overwhelmed by enemy players (some smelly clan with 8 of them going after you, half having pikes) you decide to ru...retreat and then some mighty fine GK player spots you, you avoid his lance/couched lance but next time he just run over you which leaves you unprotected and those 8 fine clansmen have just arrived...

Agi builds are fun, if you wait till STR builds kill each other, cav numbers go down to reasonable levels and archers forget about you so you can ninja backstab them from behind.

For crowd fighting and teamplay heavy STR builds are always better.

I think he may actually be serious... tough case.

What happened? They let agility builds move faster than strength builds? Wow, so biased  :o

Max speed is the same for everyone, I think. You only gain acceleration by going agi way.

Me neither. I hear that a lot, "athletics only increases acceleration", but like.. all you have to do is make a 13 athletics STF and see it's not true. You'll never reach that kind of speed, no matter how long you run, with 5-8 athletics (since most people have that, easiest to test.)
Meaning lies as much
in the mind of the reader
as in the Haiku.

I think the acceleration from Ath helps, when going uphill or something, with max speed being more affected by gear and such, when on flat ground.

This was disproven a long time ago. I thought it was true once, over a year ago.

As an NA admin, I am the most laid back and concerned with the ~fun of the game~ above all other factors. I've also been super inactive since Summer 2012. University takes most of my time, but I still find some time to play when i can.

OP's an idiot.  str builds are the way to go (as infantry melee).  24/12 is far superior to 12/24...

4 athletics and 4 wm is still pretty damn good.  With 4 wm you can still put points into two weapon skills and have both over 100 (just slightly). 

Agi builds should be buffed some (IMO).  I think they need to take away the free WPF you get at every level up (which would make WM more useful, it's pretty useless now).  Also make it so that riding skill actually made you ride faster on the horses...right now it's basically negligible (and I'm not even sure if it makes a difference...if it does, it's basically non-existent).
