Best unit

[eat_ma_shorts]

who do you recon is the most useful unit

 

[Samsara]

god bless them noobs that believe that there is a "most useful unit" so they can mass it up as if this were starcraft.

Sorcs are good, Necros are good, Druids of the claw are good, Witch doctors are good, Priests are good, Banshees are good, Shamen are good, Dryads are good, Mountain Giants are good, Knights are good, Tauren are good, Abominations are good, Gryphons are good, Frost Wyrms are good, Wyverns are good, Chimaeras are good.....

I have to disagree, banshees are far from being good.

 

[Thistle]

yeah banshees are useless....

You shouldn't bash SC if you don't know what you are talking about

Either way, my favorite unit in WC is the Shaman, just because I like it. Like the Dark Archon on SC

But the best unit, imo, if it is not an hero, should be the Giant guy. 1v1 he can beat lots of (non-air) guys. But I don't know much about this game, either, so I'm not saying it's true or not...

 

[Jimbo]

what race is the giant guy? i think ure talking about tauren from orcs

 

[Emperor Pan I]

Taurens in a 1v1 match can beat almost anything as it is the strongest ground unit. I think that Tronga is talking about Mountain Giants maybe? which arn't high in damage output, but are an amazing meatshield as they take a beating and a half.

Chims = GG

 

[Emperor Pan I]

now here is where the conversation turns interesting. Chims cant be the best unit simply because they can be killed by light and all heavy air. But those air units can also be killed by ground AA, and ground can be killed by heavy meele, and heavy meel in turn are countered by heavy air...

Chims are far from best, and only in FFA games are they good. Only stupid people let u tech to chim in solo, and 2v2-4v4 is a joke.

Ed, you forgot Gyros but that's okay. I'll let it slide for now!

I imagine banshees can be pretty good. Curse adding the mediocre miss chance deal is pretty cool. Throw in Haze and Howl of Terror and your ghouls might last a lot longer then one might think.

 

[Theroy]

Can chims even miss? I mean they have to hit something because all there attacks do splash damage.

Yes sir, you are correct. It's actually because they are such a shield that I like them.

WoW and Tauren can kill any air unit they pls can't they Pan oO

ofcourse they cant kill air, just like tauren cant, becuase they cant attack it genious, only difference is chim>tauren.

 

[Theroy]

Chim is the most powerful unit by far. Look at it as a ground unit that most ground units can't hit. Taruen take extra dmg from it's attack and everything around feels the splash. They are awsome.

 

[ShadowSpear]

ya untill wind rinders and bats come in then ur chim's are dead. even ground units can own them. a few radiers w/ ensnare and then ur taurens own on the chims! chims really arnt that good

 

[eat_ma_shorts]

MGs are the best arent they. destroy the base bfore the opposition can destroy you

 

[mesiahofpenguins]

I don't know why but i really like dryads

 

[Silynt Rage]

I think DOTC's are the most usefull at teir 3. Rejuvi, and bear form, makes for a nasty combo.

My next favorite would have to be teir 3 Raiders.

- Ensnare
- Pilliage
- excells in destroying buildings

...what more could you want?

 

[Sogeking]

probably frenzied ghouls just becuase their cheap and you can get them usually before an ne player goes tier 3. And even if you take that long to attack the player, you will likely have a level 3 lich and level 4 dk. And then you can add crypt fiends or gargs. i prefere the fiends to add more troops into the mix, but hey whatever floats your boat.

Raiders are excellent units. Though they are used as siege must better in klarger gmaes, and they work well against humans with tanks. thier attack on buildings is excellent. I can take down a hall in less than half a minute with all them focusing. Plus pillage is a good move. if they repair buildings u attack, its like ur mining cause u keep gaingin recources and they keep losing them.
