Cyberex was the all-time favorite, but it requires tech and load of alloys, whereas you can just colonize the Ecumenopolis rightaway, and destroy alloy forges anywhere else in your empire

Cybrex actually feels like the weakest now IMO. You can't use it until you have Mega-Engineering. You need a massive amount of alloys to get it running, and you no longer get minerals from it, which is the major bottleneck for non-gestalt empires.

Others might just be a bunch of research and minerals, but it's at least stuff you can use right away, not in some nebulous future. Of there was still a section you could colonize, on the other hand, it would compete with the First League as best precursor to find once again

There, fixed that for you. Now that you cant get minerals from it, and for energy need the trade will cover that, ringworlds are good for absolutely nothing else. Just a big 4x50 district farming world with tons of clerks on it. And it takes ages to populate it.

First League is certainly the best, and honestly the other non-Cybrex precursors are second. They give bonus alloys and rare resources, which can easily get your economy going early game, especially since the bonuses to mining/research stations can really stretch those deposits out. Cybrex is honestly somewhat disappointing now, because the techs for utilizing it come so late game there's less of a "snowball effect." It used to be that the others were so underwhelming that Cybrex was by default the best.

I'm actually a bit sad that First League is just so overwhelmingly OP, because now I keep restarting just to get a FL start. Being able to slam 10 dudes into alloy manufacturing basically for free isn't a joke.
