Hmm wow what a conversation... For the record im new to battleforums.
Newayz imo Humans ARENT the worst race - none of the races are. Its really all about SOS ( Style, Opinion, Skill). And so u all know, im typically random for many reasons, and prefer undead. With that said, my arguement!
Well, i would say that knights are good melee units with 12armor when upped, but its been said (btw personally tauren/grunts own knights)
AND I would say that Grys are excellent en masse in team games, good for harassing, and all around good air units, but alas, its been said.
I would also say that imo and others say that human casters rule, what with invisibility for scouting, healing and innerfire constantly keeping yur units healthy and happy, and the humiliating ( and incredibly helpful against chims ) polymorph.
But, u guessed it, its been said.
However the Human Heros havent been discussed, so i will say this. Human heros are very effective when microed well.
PALADIN- All around good man. Holy light is definetly a good helpful thing, good for early creeping, and just nice to have... i mean at lvl3 holy light, 600 life- just about heals a knight. Devotion aura is good, adding more to the all already high armor of the humans. Divine shield, not many use it, i dont, but defintily helpful when ur paladin is at 10 health. And finally Resurrection! This spell has won me many fights. Think about- 6 units- very good. Personally if u like knights this spell is a must. In a big battle having those formally dead now back to fight with potentially 20 armor knights, well, nuff said.
Mountain King- heh the stupid dwarves. Storm clap, so nice to have- a definite must for the MK, excelent for tight melee situations, i really dont need to explain it, only noobs dont know the effectiveness of this spell. Storm Bolt, o do i LOVE this spell! I prefer to cal it hero destroyer. Just when the hero runs away ( like a pussy ), thinking he got away with 100 life left - BLAMMO!!! This is overall y i like the mountain king i average 3 hero kills a game with this spell lol use it wisely and often and it will serve u well. Bash is nice for the MK, just makes him even more deadly. Avatar is a fair lvl6 spell, its aight, good for big battles.
Archmage- Ahh, who doesnt love the good ole AM, aye? Well now, lets get started. Water element is nice for creeping, and good for battles when u need that xtra push btw about 1k life at lvl3 who doesnt like that??? Also i recommend use it for scounting purposes! Blizzard is overall good spell, nice for tightly bunched units, however, dont make the ageold noob mistake of using it on drys i see it happen too much! Just remember this hurts yur units too and youll be aight! This spell is also good for base leveling, but i still recommend siege for that! Mass tele is good for running away, its like having a tp. Also a wellknown strat but try it if u havent- get mass tele, make a unit invisble, then send it into opponents base, and mass tele to it- instant surprise attack! This works well if u do it with siege tanks u can levle their base in seconds!
And finally, brilliance aura, the main reason i like the humans! As u all know, lossage of mana is the true enemy to any hero. Well, this aura prevents it! And for this reason i always suggest double or even tri heroing with humans... it definetly pays off- this aura means good mana supply, i suggest getting a main spell and this with the AM. That matched with a MK and well WOW!
Newayz, i payed my 2 cents, sorry if its too long lol. Feel free to agree, ridicule, throw tomatos at it ectect.
And so u all know im not a great human player i just see theyre strengths ( which is the first half to beating em! ) And i dont like AT too much, so dont ask, and my best record was lvl16rt with blu drag icon.
