Which creatures from the alternative upgrade options do you choose?

the enemy will still attack the hydra. what else can they do? The fact that it attacks several cells isn't very useful, because a normal player won't attack 4 cells in a row, but will attack from different sides. The damage is still extremely low. Regeneration is more useful.

Yes, summoning twice as many Lords seems cool, but I said, it's better not to lose troops at all. Wouldn't someone come and finish off your hero after the battle?
