Go with Grunt(To Tauren)/Raider/Kodo and either WD or Shaman. Devour Tauren if there are any, and take advantage of caster's spells.

I coulda sworn that title said something different...oh well..

Go FS harrase with wolves. Build a barracks and make sure you have two burrows around 5 peons on lumber and gold. Then when you hit 190 lumber get a stronghold. Then build a Voodoo Lounge and warmill..And Build grunts when all of this is happening not to many.Then when you get strong hold build a Demolisher. When youve got a mix of grunts,hh,and maybe one or two demolishers, get a fort. When you get fort, upgrade hh to berserkers, and then burning oil, if that floats your boat.Then get shadow hunter. Maybe in the middle of getting a fort, get a spirit lodge if you want blood lust or healing wards, but if you dont want that get a taurens after the fort is done.

Thats about it i guess and of course build burrows.

orc vs orc is kinda bad best u can hope to do is to creep and beat his army during a fight and just counter right after that u should be able to win if u crept well enought

Well, thats an alternate, in my opinion, orcs are the only ones with heavy type armor for food supply.. burrows.. so do FS rush with wolves, try to destroy those burrows.. and there you go, u jus got an advantage of winning. Remember that grunts take 3 spaces in ur food thingy, which is pretty big, so with out those burrows, they wont be able to make grunts when u can :D

thats worx but u should have a hero by then so that wouldn't work too well and by then i can have at least 1 grunt so that would change everything i would also have 2 burrows so i burrow would skrew the FS over easily

Do any of you know ANYTHING about Orc vs. Orc? Not one suggestion contained Kodo Beasts, Orc's top hard counter to heavy melee. This match is played with two main buildings for units, Barracks and Beastiary. Raiders, Kodo Beasts, and Grunts are your target units, with Far Seer and Shadow Hunter.

Tip to using these: Ensnare a grunt, move back a bit. Take advantage of every skill. Devour a tauren (if none, a grunt) then move the Kodo out of range. Hex all heavy melee that the Kodo leave undevoured.

If they start producing air, as someone asked in a post before, you have two options. Ensnare, and play with this same strategy, or bring out 3-4 Bat Riders. NEVER PLAY ORC VS ORC WITHOUT MOVING TO KODO BEASTS. ALWAYS HAVE AT LEAST 2 KODO BEASTS. ONLY exception being if they skip a barracks and are massing Wyverns.

Replay: (I'm TT1. Watch my unit combo.)

No, you see, that doesn't work well. Bat Riders counter Wyverns perfectly, because they are not considered HEAVY air, being only 4 food. If you noticed in my replay, 2 Bat Riders took out well, let's say he stopped making Wyverns after he realized I knew to counter them with Bat Riders.

Grunt/Raider/Kodo is the way to go, just beware the insulting. You might get called a llama shitbrick.

In the beginning it was a completely equal game the same number of grunts,the same heroes and time of upgrading to stronghold.And the red did wel too,but he should have changed the strat when he saw that the wolf riders own the wind riders
A good game to both of you, and a good job of the Granite golems :)

u can try mass casters and have some meat/ hero of choice first sh to fs or fs to sh, i recommend fs first. The reason i say mass casters is orcs seems to have heavy armor almost every unit, there for magic damage is good againts them. Just an opinion, so dont flame me =) havent try it though.
