Hey all. So, I majorly play orcs, and have done for quite a while. I'm half decent, but something that tends to elude me is the NE high early game pressure with hunts, quick teching in the process of, and whamo half a dozen bears wander in to rape your base. Terrible explanation I know, but I assume you get the gist of it. My question being: what's your strat for dealing with this?

1 tower in the base + BM + few Grunts will counter the hunts. Bears can be countered
with Spirit Walkers, Kodos and Grunts. Just use Spirit Link before the battle. Devour the
bears and use SW's to disable Battle Roar & Rejuvenation.

And take some Peons in the battle if enemy has too many bears. Peons with Spirit Link
are good at absorbing damage :)

And remember to make Shadow Hunter and learn Healing Wave.
