The army in Dungeon is not the main thing. The army is just an addition to the hero, so there is someone to kill while he casts cold rings and earth shocks. And a properly developed Warlock is a monster. With spell power, chaos magic, earth stomp, amulet of mastery or amulet of icy embrace, and magic power 20+... The damage from a single earth shock can be up to 5k... The main thing is not to forget about mana attraction so that mana doesn't run out at the wrong time...
I apologize if I made incorrect conclusions, but you either only play against the computer, or you have never played against average, let alone strong, players playing as the Academy / Dwarves:(
The Academy has a very unpleasant perk in the spell power skill - Counterspell. The mechanism of its action is as follows: the Academy mage blocks the next spell of the opponent, spending twice as much mana on this action as the opponent's spell costs. Since the Academy mage has 2.5-3 times more mana in 99 cases out of 100, he completely blocks the magic of the Dark Elf. And if the Dark Elf is developed as a pure chaos mage, he is doomed in a duel with the Academy mage.

As for the confrontation with the Dwarves, the best army HP in the game + runes + light magic make relying solely on chaos magic ineffective.

Bottom line: a strong race in the early game, a mediocre race in the mid-game, and a very weak race in the late game.
If we talk about the strongest race, then it is probably the Knights :)
In the early game, they may not be the strongest yet, but in the mid and especially in the late game, they will tear everyone apart without a chance. This is about patch 2.1, by the way.
Although... there is a small chance for the Demons if they manage to steal all the mana... but even with this, the Knight can cope.
Before we start the discussion, let's define what difficulty level you mean and what is early, mid, and late game?
In my understanding:
difficulty level - veteran (as the most balanced)
early - 1-3 weeks
mid - 4-6 weeks
late - 7-9 weeks

I once played against myself, Elves against Dark Elves. The armies were almost the same, and the heroes were the same level. The Elves won, although I felt a little sorry for the Dark Elves. In general, my friend said that I probably play better with the Elves, and not that the Elves are stronger.
Sorry for my curiosity, but I have two questions for you:
1. How did you manage to reach the final battle with almost identical armies?
2. How did the Dark Elves manage to lose to the Elves with identical armies?:eek:
