At level 15, the damage from Cursed Ground is 45 units. In my opinion, that's not very effective for disrupting Rage. By the way, I calculated the HP growth rate for Earth Elementals and Orcs. I don't remember the exact numbers, but the values were almost identical. And Plague would definitely be helpful... But there's no way to test all of this, and in general, a lot in Heroes depends on luck. I played a game with Leto as an experiment – he only got Education at level 18, and Secret of the Phoenix didn't appear at all. Of course, there was no Mass Slow or Dispel Magic...
1. If you don't have level 20 or higher by the sixth week, you've done something seriously wrong.
2. Don't bring the Orc to Castle mode, and you'll be happy.
3. Leto consistently has Education and Secret of the Phoenix by level 16.
4. Play 50-70 games with Leto, and you'll understand a lot.

At the beginning of the battle, focus the attack on the Riders; if they survive the counterattack... so Vampirism on the reds is perfect.
By the way, does Vampirism work on their special retaliatory attack?
It works great, I would even say – it's fantastic:smile51:

Damn... It's been tested that Leto simply tears Orcs to shreds with upgrades in Summoning and Darkness. What other arguments can there be? Don't rely on Chaos, because against Darkness, Anti-Chaos works in about 90% of cases... Phoenix and Subjugation are our everything. And the Mistresses do mega-cool things under Vampirism. The reds too, but the attack is focused on them...
In this specific case, the opponent doesn't invest in Magic Dampening because he believes that the resistance to magic is sufficient.
