Which Haven heroes do you prefer?

I like Dugald; I would easily put him in first place. Axel would be second, and Vitka would be third, probably. You can start with Ellaine, but it's more for earning money from peasants, and then choose a main hero from the tavern (one of the first three is likely to appear). Laslo... well, maybe for a quick game. I don't know about others, but I prefer armored units over zealots, even though they are weaker; they are very helpful against archers. And armored units are not a strong offensive force, so I wouldn't choose Laslo. But that's just my tactic; maybe I'm wrong.
