New here? I'm Roha — want a quick tour?

I think it's very problematic to definitively state which unit is better.
Because there isn't a single "best" unit; each one is useful in a specific situation.
Under certain conditions, for example, depending on the race your opponent is playing...
So, it's a matter of knowledge and experience...
Vlad
Name 3 of the coolest units in your opinion, starting with the best. This will make you more interesting than repeating a phrase I've probably read five times in this thread, along with many of its variations!

That's the point... there aren't any that are better... Each one is good in a specific situation... Don't you agree?
And the phrase isn't memorized... it's self-generated.
Vlad
I disagree, even just because of personal preferences! For example, some people might enjoy the stealth of rogues, while others prefer a genie-illusionist. There's always something that a particular unit did that caught someone's attention, and now it's a staple in almost all tactics for playing as that faction.

This doesn't make Vampires "weaklings"; they are the strongest enemy of level 3, but I personally prefer "Spitting Fiends" because ranged attacks are preferable.
BASON
It's one thing to joke around... But that doesn't mean it's useful...
If the conversation is about who your favorite is specifically, and not in general, then it's different for everyone... However, everyone has different opinions here. :smile50:
Vlad
It seems like nothing affects you! Nobody seems to need you in the army: you build whatever you want...
Fireball
On the contrary, I need everyone in my army... I try to build all creatures so that I can make the most of the race's advantages.
Vlad
You can only build all of them if you have several castles. So, are you suggesting building one in one castle and another in a different one? If you don't have a clear advantage in everything else, that's a sure way to lose.
And you can compare the usefulness of units, for example, a skeleton and an imp:
Their strength increases approximately the same amount and is small, but the imp runs far and collects resources better, and even in small numbers, it can cause a lot of trouble in battle by sucking 1 mana from angels and disrupting their resurrection, and in large numbers and with tactics... And a skeleton is just a product of early necromancy and mediocre meat (although it's great for Sacrifice, but that's already an exotic use).
And there are also key units for development, like vampires and djinn.
Fireball
But of course, I'm not building absolutely everything... but most of it.
and skeletons are good in large numbers (thankfully, necromancy was created for that)
So the choice of units depends on what you need... at the moment.
BASON
Vlad
You're only hurting yourself.
There won't be many fewer Imps. Necromancy is designed to raise Vampires, or at least Ghosts, and Skeletons are just a short, intermediate stage. And running around with them is not ideal for movement speed.
But some units are needed in many situations, while others are just a temporary addition. Therefore, some are more useful than others.
BASON
Vlad
Alright, I won't waste my time arguing anymore: I'm stopping the debate with Xaker. There are units that are better than others, and that's undeniable! Of course, each one is good for its own situation, but that's not a hard and fast rule.
