Which is your favorite race and how many levels you have on B.net?

[Kaitech[SanD]]

Nothing is > Nothing, Blizzard worked their @$$es off to make sure these teams are all balanced, they have their up sides and down sides, for instance, UD have high cost and limited building but have easy building and resource gaining. NE have mainly ranged which can be a down side and mainly the units rely on the heros and so forth.

 

[Rui]

Yeah sure they worked for balance, that's why Humans still have a good time owning Undead...

...yes I was being sarcastic if you couldn't tell.

 

[Jacek]

If bears are the best meatshields, I'm the king of england.

And Undead does not own NE if NE knows what to get. Same for NE vs Humans. And same for Orcs vs Humans.

undead owns NE

if undead is going dual crypt ghoul w/ tp sell then gargoyles, only huge difference of skill can save NE. Even panda won't do a shit here.

bears are the best meatshields, because they can rejuvenate themselves, and with staff of preservation they never die

And how will the Undead player have enough gold to be constantly spawning Ghouls? Besides, Panda should be 2nd and not 1st. The 1st can be DH for example, with Immolation.

bears are the best meatshields, because they can rejuvenate themselves, and with staff of preservation they never die

Putting things that way, Mountain Giants are again the best meatshields because they can take alot of hits and then use of preservation staff and have rejuvenation support. Besides, when heavy melee takes another heavy melee head-on, you will rarely have time to use the rejuvenation, unless you have a Druid of the Claw constantly on Night Elf form, and you are quick enough to select & de-select him (in case you use Hold Position). That will rarely work, nonetheless. Besides, it's obvious that if the opposing player knows you're going heavy melee, he will go for air units instead of having all the work of micro'ing. With orc it's another case, since they don't have air units with Magic Damage, and they can easily revive their Tauren with Spirit Walkers.
Anyway, Mountain Giant is the best meatshield because he can take multiple hits, although he's not very good against other melee units. However, bears are more vulnerable to ranged/siege attacks since their armor is Heavy.

 

[Ihaterednecks]

The Burning Legion>All.

How about that?

 

[Rui]

We're speaking of melee games, and there's no "Burning Legion" in melee besides creeps.

 

[THE_END]

How bout ya shut up n play the game
And yes it is possible to get a lev 10 by having one hero
I do it almost every game

 

[Burger_Bling]

I also enjoy playing as the Undead. And I usually do random so i never know what race i'll get. I usually hope for Undead or Orcs and I do not do that damn annoying Blademaster Abuse.

 

[Cavman]

to quote warhammer...
"Orcs orcs orcs orcs orcs orcs orcs orcs orcs orcs ORCS!!!!!!"

Yeah, I like the horde. I'm not the guy that likes to sneak around or mob you with one unit, I like on big brawl.

 

[SuPa-]

lvl 10 dreadlord = PWNAGE He's practically invincible in combat, and with an infernal he's the ownage

 

[Katu]

lvl 10 dreadlord = PWNAGE He's practically invincible in combat, and with an infernal he's the ownage

That's why I choose dreadlord every time as first hero

 

[Rui]

First, there's no "shut up" here, this is virtual and I can post one thousand one posts with you replying 'shut up' to all of them. Me and Jacek are melee players and we wish to discuss here, not anywhere else. If you have problems with that, you can simply Ignore us, as we will ignore your "shut up" messages as well.


Back on topic, yes, I like the Dreadlord. It's pitty, however, that he is very weak and vulnerable in early game. Those Blademasters are the edge of annoyance.

 

[Em!]

1.Undead. Favorite Hero Dreadlord sleep and vampiric aura early on can keep you creeping for awhile but against another computer there is the cryptlord i think he´s name is, a really good tank.
My favorite units are the banshees curse is a really good spell so is anti magic.
2. Night Elf, i always choose keeper of the groove both for creeping and for fighting enemy computers.
If i had to choose a favorite unit it would be the dryads.
3. Orc, Shadow Hunter i just like him i´ve had enough of the blademaster and his annoying voice
fav is da grunts they live long time.
4. Humans and my favorite is the bloodmage, he just has a nice set of spells.
Fav units are the spellbreakers.

 

[THE_END]

Rui I was talking shut up bout the dude who stated something about the Legion owning all
I WAS NOT talking to you with that

 

[Kofi_Banan]

Undead

Cl+Dk+Pit +friends + destro + some micro >all

569-477 my undead stats , mostly Cl =P

 

[Rui]

Pardon me if you got insulted then.

Hell, Destroyers still prove to be hard to kill. I just hate attacking a Destroyer and taking away only some HP. =P

 

[Gausslander]

Let me lay down the tables here:
Key:
(=)-Equal/Tie/Draw
(>)-Greater Than (Win)
(<)-Lesser Than (Lose)
Hu/Or/Un/Ne = Hu/Or/Un/Ne
----------------------------
Human = Orcs:
Reason:
The orc blademaster rush, being a basic strategy, can be contoured by the "call to arms ability somewhat, but with wind walk it is hard to kill/chase away/blank the blademaster. Healing is easy with both races, so it's hard to tell in a basic game.
Human < Undead
Reason:
The undead can eat the corpses of the human enemies early on, which gives them a good advantage on healing. Yet the humans have the heroes advantage, which can counter the undeads somewhat, but the undead heroes later on have immunity to spells such as "holy light" to the point where it is hard to take them down.
Human < Nightelf
Reason:
The night elf have many ranged units, and spells that can easily be used against the human race, though the humans have ways of destroying this threat, it is still easier for the Night Elf to win.
Orc > Nightelf
Reason:
The orcs are strong and can take the hits from the weak arrows let out by the night elves. The orcs can heal quickly, but as to attacking the night elf base they are almost useless, which can be fixed by good ground unit support.
Undead > Nightelf
Reason:
The undead have advanced units and defenses, rushing is almost impossible due to the fact they have spirit towers in the first 3 minutes of the game.
The undead heroes easily counter the Night elf heroes with their stronger and more effective abilities.
Orc > Undead
Reason:
The orcish heroes are well balanced with their units and siege weapons, they can take down the undead defenses before the undead can make enough units to stop the overflow.

 

[THE_END]

Don't worry Rui, no harm no foul
Destroyers are pretty damn annoying

 

[The_wand_mirror]

Undead, only they're cursor sucks .. i prefer the human cursor

 

[Jacek]

I'll comment your post, what is my opinion, based mostly on warcraft strategy forums. You look on healing too much imho...

Human = Orcs:
Reason:
The orc blademaster rush, being a basic strategy, can be contoured by the "call to arms ability somewhat, but with wind walk it is hard to kill/chase away/blank the blademaster. Healing is easy with both races, so it's hard to tell in a basic game.

Blademaster is countered easily by arcane tower. Human is considered almost impossible matchup for Orc, because Human can fast expo with militia and WEs, and then tower up and mass gryphons and you can't do anything. When Human gets his first sorceress, he can buy FL in tavern and tier2 push and kill all your burrows, meaning death for ya.

Human < Undead
Reason:
The undead can eat the corpses of the human enemies early on, which gives them a good advantage on healing. Yet the humans have the heroes advantage, which can counter the undeads somewhat, but the undead heroes later on have immunity to spells such as "holy light" to the point where it is hard to take them down.

Undeads don't eat corpses of human enemies... why? if you lose units in beginning you are just newbie player. But I agree that Human < Undead, but the only reason for that are destroyers, which are virtually uncounterable for human

Human < Nightelf
Reason:
The night elf have many ranged units, and spells that can easily be used against the human race, though the humans have ways of destroying this threat, it is still easier for the Night Elf to win.

I think it is quite a balanced matchup. Night Elves had advantage with DH/Naga/Dryad+Bear strat, burning Archmage and Mountain King mana and countering casters, but recently humans made new strategies. And of course the advantage of human you can't counter - fast expo

Orc > Nightelf
Reason:
The orcs are strong and can take the hits from the weak arrows let out by the night elves. The orcs can heal quickly, but as to attacking the night elf base they are almost useless, which can be fixed by good ground unit support.

Night elves had a huge advantage with mass DotTs, but now its rather equal...

Undead > Nightelf
Reason:
The undead have advanced units and defenses, rushing is almost impossible due to the fact they have spirit towers in the first 3 minutes of the game.
The undead heroes easily counter the Night elf heroes with their stronger and more effective abilities.

Oh no, nerubian towers > spirit towers

Orc > Undead
Reason:
The orcish heroes are well balanced with their units and siege weapons, they can take down the undead defenses before the undead can make enough units to stop the overflow.

the problem of undead with orc lies in hard to set expo and TC + Windriders. Stomp on fiends and focus fire kills orcs pretty much. But the new strategy - Banshees + Lich w/ Frost Armour and Pitlord w/ Rain of Fire is popular and makes the matchup more and more equal

as a Night elf player, the matchups I hate most are undeads and night elves. undeads because of their nukes,unkillable defenses and piercing damage. Night elves because I have to make race to bears, nothing else permitted

 

[THE_END]

Yea last night
I played a game where I had my lev 10 Death Knight
Fully upgraded gargs and I ripped through a pack of Wyverns along with a few Chims
If you do not believe that gargs are amazing, take me on in a B.Nert game
No one got NOTHING on Undead

 

[Gizmo III]

I love humans, dont really know why, but I do
I have always loved the human ace in all RTS games

 

[Rui]

Gargs are great if you have only enemy air units. Gargs always attack ground if there's enemy ground ranged units.

 

[THE_END]

Trueee
Like either way, with a fully upgraded Death Knight that they're rallied on, its just unstoppable
And if you feel like it, get Frost Wyrms towards the end

 

[Jacek]

I mean, gargs with ghouls pretty much counter dryad/bear strategies, maybe they aren't so strong head-on, but the wisp harass is great strength of undead

the peak of Death Knights strength is lvl 6, when you get aura lvl 3 and coil lvl 3

 

[Rui]

I usually pick lvl 3 coil, lvl 2 unholy aura and ultimate. Although the units don't last long, it's still helpful to have an extra strength.

 

[THE_END]

Yea I get the aura first, then coil, so lev 6 I got lev 3 aura, lev 2 coil and the ulti
And the Raise Dead is good cause the units raised are invincible

 

[Ihaterednecks]

Rui I was talking shut up bout the dude who stated something about the Legion owning all
I WAS NOT talking to you with that

Why? I have the freedom to state my opinion.

Who ever implied that I was playing Warcraft at the time of my post, anyhow? Your post didn't make much sense.

There's another reason I hate the interweb. People don't understand sarcasm.

 

[THE_END]

Ok I didn't mean seriously
Have you ever heard of "kidding around"
I have no beef with you Ihatered

Anyways..back on topic

 

[Rui]

Man, I wish someone made a mod for Warcraft III to add at least one more faction (Blood Elves + Naga). Replacing those casters for Humans would be quite easy. This because Warcraft III is getting old, and with a Starcraft II coming out, we can expect Battle.Net to empty even more.

 

[THE_END]

Very very true...hmm
I'm sure Blizz will do something to keep Wc3 alive
Add more heroes to the Tavern maybe?

 

[Rui]

Blizzard doing something to keep Warcraft III alive? That's a joke. Wc3 to Blizzard is currently a burden. I don't think permission is needed to mod Warcraft III, at least RotHE didn't need one.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Just like the title said:

My favorite race is:Orc and i am 8 level.

 

[frostwhisper]

Another race thread? This is getting really old really fast...
Oh well: Troll, no idea (haven't played in B.net for ages)

 

[Moontraveler]

Undead rank 0 (Never played a single online melee game in my life )

 

[LordDz]

Undead, could sure own a few noobs.. But I just don't have the feel for it. Cause when I look at scores like 22-30 (Win and death) and each game could be like 5-40 minutes each, I feel like.. no.

 

[Taz123456789]

my fav race is taurens and thats b/c they are strng and who dosent like fighting bulls and my lvl is 0 b/c i dont play ladder i play customs

 

[Aeroblyctos]

What is your favorite race from BASIC races?

What is your favorite from Human, Orc, Night Elf or Undead?? And why?

My favorite race is human. I like human heroes, units and structures. Human have good tactics and it's good in every matchup.

 

[Modo]

I like the Night Elves. There is just something that I am drawn to. From the 1st time I ever saw them, I was like... once I get WC3, I'm using the NE.

 

[Elenai]

I am HIGHLY dissapointed with this thread...Not a High Elf option in site.

FOR SHAME!

-Elenai the...HATRED!!!!...Epic-

PS:...I like Night Elves.

 

[Kimbo]

in wc3, they arnt really races, more of factions or such as there is more than 1 race in each one.
I like orcs as they have the tauren.

 

[Moontraveler]

Undead... Nothing can stop us!

 

[Cheeder]

It is my experience that Humans are always the best bet.

I think what Werewulf meant was that the Orcish Horde, as what we call a race, is made up of the Orcs, Fel Orcs, Tauren, Trolls, etc. which makes it a faction.

I agree with Moontraveler, Undead are the best race. In my experinece they thrash all others. I still favour the Night Elves though. I rarely play WC3 for its RTS capacity. I play custom Not DotA maps 1 player.
