1. First of all, Orcs have the highest growth rate in the game. Only the Undead can produce such a large amount of units.

2. Horde Fury is simply a superb racial ability, possibly the best.
As a result, the last three Orc units remaining alive become practically very difficult to kill.

3. Don't underestimate some of the Orc heroes' abilities. For example, in long games, Horde Fury is simply devastating, working better than any divine retribution. The fear ability also looks very good.

4. Have you seen free Cyclops with accumulated Fury?

If it weren't for the Orcs' weakness against spells, everyone would be shouting (deservedly) about a complete imbalance.

Against Darkness, Blindness, it seems, is removed by a hit from the Chieftain.
Subjugation significantly reduces initiative (which Orcs don't excel at anyway).
Berserk - yes, that's a problem. But it might not trigger.
