Your point is understandable, Nightly Edelweiss, but...
When playing as Winghelm, the entire Elven army moves first, followed by your first unit. And given that Elves have high initiative and if you develop leadership (morale immediately +5), it's likely that by the time your dragons or hero move, some of their units will have already moved twice. Now imagine - Cursed + upgraded luck (often +5, more often +4 - which is also good). After that, you might simply have no one left to fight with... So, tell me, what will you do first with your hero? Will you blind the hunters (of course, if you have the Blind spell) or cast Meteor Shower? You can't do both at the same time... And what about the dragons? Will you use them as expendable units to reduce the number of archers (since Ents are standing near them) or will you try to conserve them and use them more carefully?
It's not that simple... Elves are very dangerous!!!
But, for the sake of fairness, it should be said that Dark Elves can be just as dangerous...
Once, I remember playing against them with my favorite Demons. I thought, "Now I'll drain all their mana and they're done for!" First, the Dark Riders moved and killed all my Pit Lords in one hit (and there were more than 30 of them!). I was very upset and stopped playing... And that was even without magic...
