Damn Sorcceress ... :\

I have problems playing vs a human ... the problem is those god d*mn sorcceress. When they get all my units with slow and my grunts/tauren/and all the otherz get too slow attack rate and are easyly owned by 4-5 riflez, an AM and a MK. :\ BTW, there are 3 priests healin' around ... How do you guys counter this ?!

 

[AHappyChineseBoy]

how about the magic guy with dispel.

 

[thegame]

Sorceresses are very annoying when you are orc, but i guess that a spiritwalker or two can dispel the slow. The problem is that you have to research adept training.

Get a few demos in your army to take out the priests and sorceresses.

 

[BluddLuSt4Life]

Kill them before they get slow and MK, pretty easy to do on a tavern map, creep the human base with fs/grunts, tech and get a naga, creep the human base some more, then when he says "GG" say "GG" back.

edit: LOL just realized this is about 4 months old..

You can kill them sorc first using chain lighting with FS or shockwave with TC. Hmm rifles vs grunts... Im strating to think that's nice because the footmen are free experience. Im starting to hate them even for tier1.

 

[burnning acid]

footmens are free xp that is true but with rifles you have a better micro than with grunts and you should have lvl 3 chain lightning till tier 2

 

[thegame]

No one gets lvl3 chain lightning, always get lvl3 wolves.. they rock. Even though its a little bit difficult to level your hero up to lvl5 by tier2.

Try air. When I'm humy I hate when air flanks my sorc.

 

[thegame]

wyverns? they die to riflemen easily. I would never get air vs hum unless im playing a FFA.

That's why you flank and only take the sorc.

Grunts as shield HHs in back throwing spears.

 

[Aragorn7]

Ya, HH's got a very big buff in the last patch, so use them! I was really surprised the first time I faced them; they could actually match fiends for once!

Catapults own casters sooooooo bad. Just get like 4 and focus fire. They will slaughter the casters. Aim for the priests first, and then finish off the sorcs. Orc has the strongest melee so it shouldn't be hard to beat in melee. If he has slow, try to get disenchant because that is the only dispell orc has.

 

[thegame]

Demos are the only possible solution to sorceresses.. but you need atleast 2.. the more the merrier.

 

[Emperor Pan I]

Tier 2, demos should always work, and micro will make them pwn the sorc. Heah unters have to little range, and a smart player will move sorc back use the MK for that slam ability and focus on your hunters
by tier 3 Taurens and Bloodlust counters the movement speed, and increases attack speed plus u stomp the ass off the human players..

 

[septoiD2]

demos + chainlightening + shockwave = gg casters

atleast have 2 demos at your base at all times, and remember to micro them to attack the casters.

 

[Emperor Pan I]

that is a waste leaving a demo at your base. just use a tp or speed scroll to get ot your base if it is needed. bring the demo with u to help in a battle.

Sorcceress are anoying no question about that. But if you have Bloodlusted units and have a TC w/ his endurence aura that not much of a problem. and if that doesnt work you always have Shamans w/ purge or using sprit walkers w/ disenchant.

another way of killing them dang sorcceress is use a Bm and ww to the rear then bladestorm those anoying gals

 

[Emperor Pan I]

problem is, both puurge and disenchane\t will take off the slow and the bloodlust. so I would suggest turning off bloodlust, getting sloweddisenchant and then turn bloodlust on. that way u dont wate ur own buffs, just ur enemys debuffs.

 

[ShadowSpear]

ture enough but the main point of the last post was that slow doesnt really affect your units if u have bloodlusted units and have ur TC w/ endurence aura

but u have vaild point also
