Let's just say, this style is more appropriate for Warcraft or Warhammer, but definitely not for Heroes of Might and Magic. Here, the personality of a specific soldier doesn't really matter. If you need to emphasize how cool a soldier is, elaborate ornaments on his body or huge wings on his head are unlikely to help. In this regard, the Tier 3 units are boring, but practical – no pathos, purely functionality.
In real history, there are many examples where warriors have many external features that serve no practical purpose, such as feathers on Native Americans, horns on Viking helmets, etc., and all sorts of frills and war paint won't help in battle. And in the game, if all units are just gray mice, it will simply be uninteresting to play.

Take, for example, the Jaguar Warrior. This is a huge brute who represents the military elite of the Orcs. But his appearance suggests that he is more involved in an American football (rugby) league than in real combat skills.
On the contrary, his appearance shows his real combat skills; his overall size and the size of his weapon indicate that he is not just ordinary cannon fodder.
