DISCUSSIONS on “Rules for online games in HoMM3 and formulas for calculating player rating.”

I've been wondering for a long time about the fundamental difference in the rules for HotA and WoG regarding Necromancers. With a random hero, a blue Necromancer is a very risky choice, but with Gorok, he's overpowered regardless of his color. The result is a near-complete absence of Necromancers in serious games on both platforms. On the portal, a variant was discussed where players could choose their hero and ban the starting Galtran, and it seemed to be supported, but unfortunately, it didn't make it into the rules.
