Undead Strats

[Adamithero]

For the past games i have played i used NE and orc and i am getting bored of orc and i still use NE sumtimes but i rely like undead. I was wondering if u could all post all ur building strats and attacking strats. anything would b appreciated.

so far for undead i use ghouls,necros,spiders and sumtimes banshees for possess i was wondering if u could help me bcuz the games i hav played as undead i hav gotten completely owned so thanx.

ok, u start with 3 acolytes and one ghoul.

send the ghoul to harvest lumber, and 2 acolytes to get gold.

build an alter, ziggerate, and crypt in that order.

send the building acolyte to the mine.

buil d 2 more acolytes for mine while ur buildings continue to build.

get a hero from alter, and a ghoul. (for rush)Build another Crypt and pump out lots o ghouls

each time 140 gold comes in get, a ghoul. Keep until u have at least 13-14 ghouls in line.

attack with a good 10 ghouls and hero. right now u should have maybe 10 ghouls to attack and maybe 3 ghouls on lumber.

Upgrade to halls of dead. right now, there are way to many ways to alter this, so ill leave it here. i use this strat often.

Undead is the race that I really dont use one or two main strats. Here are some of the things I do:
Mass Gargs (usually only on 2v2 with and undead as my ally)
ghouls/necros (raise dead)
necros/abombs (probibly what I use most) (unholy frenzy/raise dead)
abombs/necros/gargs/worms (In a long game if I feal like microing)

Thoes are pretty much my main UD strats. I get DL or DK for here.

massing Gargs isn't the best idea, they get owned by archers rifleman, HeadH, and crypt fiends. Gargs are ONLY good if ur going against hippos or hippo riders, gryphons ETC. I don't use Abombs, they ar't the strongest unit, and a banshee can possess it pretty fast. Necros, i think are important in a game, so i never go wit out em.

This (in my eyes) is the best team of 12 you can get. Always get all 3 heroes in your team, since they are always the strongest charachters. Try to get 2-3 abombs and 2-3 frost wyrms. Get 2-3 necros and 2 spiders. It works really really well. Also, if your facing a comp, try hiding your team somewhere next to your base. When the comp attacks your defences, bring your guys in on the other side so they can't run away.

Uhh... This wouldn't work very well because 1. It would take alot of time 2. It would take even more time to get all the upgrades in all of them 4. 2-3 necros isn't gonna do jack squat except prehape cripple heros 5. Whats the 2 spiders for???

Well, for a team of 12, I guess its not terrable.


Who plays against comps anyway???

 

[Onua365]

This is mostly used against the comp. I played a 2v2 against the comp, and most of the time the comp is fighting creeps. I usually make large teams o other guys while i'm waiting for this group to finish being made. I slowly add the guys to my team. I meant spiders as Crypt Fiends. They are used to snare air, but I guess they would be better replaced with necros

The best starting strat for undead is defintly dual aura...... The "Dual Aura" strat requires to kno lots about the map. The "Dual Aura" strat is vamp with DL with unholy aura with DK and u raise there levels up for stronger auras and mass ghoels. I like to make it even better by putting the necro aura in there aswell... That will help alot!
This is what i do..



2 acos to gold
ghoel to wood
qwe 1 aco and rally to gold
with the 1 aco u leave out make a alter, crypt and a zig. put it to gold
once u have 90 gold make another aco
once u have 150 make another zig
Alter or zig should be done first.. Make a DL
then pump ghoels when the crypt is done. Rally to wood.
when ur hero comes out get all the ghoels u pumped (like 4) and creep. And get sleep.
Make another crypt.(ull need it) and rally to hero Keep pumpin ghoels
If ur in the lost temple go to the first 3 creeps. (the 2 ranged and 1 melee)
get 2 ghoels to wood then rally the crypt to hero.
then i go to the spot where it has the oger so u can sleep it. U should get a skill grade so make it vamp
Ull be getting around 300 gold soon so upgrade and creep.
i do the 4 corners of the lost temple then i go back and creep for expansion.
stop amking ghoels till u get 250 and make a grave yard. And research for ghoels armor.
Still creep... And make zigs when u r about to run out.
Once u upgraded get ur second hero witch is DK and get aura.
upgrade 1 zig just in case.
and make 2 temples.
once temples r done upgrade the necro thing and on other make necros. And auto cast skells..
Upgrade base.. And Get the ghoels frenzy thing in crypt

In a attack

MICRO WELL... If there teir 1 go use swarm and sleep heros.
Death coil DL if it needs it.

NEVER FIGHT UP HILL!!!!!! AVOID IT

This is a good strat but it could be countered.

DONT EVER STOP CREEPING UNLESS THERES NO MORE CREEPS!

make ghoels and scout alittle to see what there doin.. If they go air upgrade the web on one crpyt and then make sipder on other. Dont go for gars.

If they go teir 3 go for banshees and hit and run attack them, Hit mine if u can... Make sure u get level 6 with DK that will own teir 3...

Skill grade order
DL: Sleep, vamp, vamp, swarm, vamp, infernal, swarm, sleep, sleep

DK: Aura, death coil, Aura, Death coil, Aura, Raise dead, death coil, Death pact, death pact

I get a variaty of units and go slowly up the tech tree. this way I can have my Basic / Piersing units and never the less spell casters (necromancers). These are the units and Heros that I get:

Units:

Ghouls (collects Lumber and good for rushing)
Necromancer(Raises Millions of Skeletons)
Crypt Fiends (Great For Anti Air)
Abominatoins ( Brutal!!)

heros:

I get the DreadLord and the Death Knight as my heros. I get to have 2 auras this way (the Vampiric Aura and Unholy Aura)
