TMNT - you said that if you have the Grail in the Conflux, you are invincible?
Let's assume this scenario: I'm playing against you (it doesn't matter which Castle).
And you place the Grail in your Conflux. I (again, it doesn't matter how) find the "Town Portal" and the "Gate of Dimensions," catch up to you and your Super Mage hero, equip military artifacts, and the Sphere of Inhibition, and just destroy you... So, the Grail in the Conflux isn't always a good thing, because almost all spells can be learned during the game in other Castles, and the Grail is obtained in the late stages, when heroes are already leveled up and have the necessary spells... Building the Grail is only worth it if the hero has little mana and needs to severely damage an enemy... (Thunderstrike)
I don't think building the Grail in the Conflux is that useful, especially if the hero's power lies in spells, because the Sphere of Inhibition can be easily used.

I also hate Inferno. It's the worst castle in the game. But "Castle" isn't such a bad castle, in my opinion.

Regarding the discussion about Conflux:
I have to agree. You've provided very compelling arguments. But I must note that, although I've played a lot (though I haven't played as Conflux that much), I've never encountered similar situations. In general, I'm not a fan of Conflux.

Inferno is a good castle with level 5 magic, and its creatures aren't very weak. If you learn how to play with this castle, you might like it!

I like playing as Fortress, Rampart, and Tower... I also like Barbarian and Dungeon. It's also interesting to play as Grove and Inferno.
P.S. I don't like Necropolis and Conflux.
P.P.S. I'm voting for Fortress to show my support, as it currently has 0 votes.

don't be rude to the moderators. Root is right, the castle is good. It's just a bit specific. if a faction is weaker than the others, you get more enjoyment when you win. and the opponent just turns red with anger :)

although I voted for Dungeon, because it's my favorite.

At first, I played as Necropolis, now as Stronghold, because Barbarians are awesome! Although I still play as the undead.

Well, I like playing either as Fortress or as Dungeon, so I voted for the latter because it had fewer votes, and also because of the Chaos Demon. Well, Tower and Castle are certainly strong, but I think they require a lot of resources. And they don't really captivate me. I just don't like Inferno. Although the castle is very strong, it's silly to say it's weak; there aren't any weak castles in the game. I also like Barbarians, but it's not that comfortable for me to play as them.

I still maintain my opinion about Inferno. Well, you'll have a lot of fire magic, an Inferno city portal, and Efreet (I don't see any other outstanding advantages). What fire magic do you use? I use Blindness, Berserk, and perhaps Frenzy. I rarely don't get Blindness, Frenzy drops 70% of the time, and only Berserk remains. The Inferno portal. You can do without it. You train an Earth expert and wander around any city, regardless of the faction. There's nothing to say about Efreet. In the end, you're left with Berserk and Efreet. Other castles will have more advantages.

I suggest we don't turn this topic into endless arguments about "what's better" again. :smile01: Everyone already understands that it's not a specific castle that wins, but the skill of the player. If you don't like Inferno/Swamp, play a duel against specialists in these castles - there are plenty of them on the forum. My IMHO - it's cool to play with all the castles, it's just that somewhere it's more difficult to learn all the tricks, somewhere it's easier to build up at the beginning, and somewhere you just like the atmosphere, the units. For me, Necropolis is the coolest, precisely because of the atmosphere. Humans are cool, but this castle is already tired in all the Heroes games, they are the most standard, or something.

I always choose Fortress in the game. I really like this castle – it’s the strongest. I killed 3 Crystal Dragons with just Gorgons, but otherwise, I have to spend an entire army.

Personally, I choose factions not based on their strength or beauty..., and certainly not just because of one unit :). I try to play as the faction that resonates with me the most. Overall, Barbarian leaves the most pleasant impression. The early game is almost always without archers. It has a good combination of different types of troops and heroes.
Playing as Inferno is also definitely interesting.

The others are interesting in their own way, of course. Some are weaker, some are stronger..., but they just aren't for me...:)

Gorgons have advantages; they shoot in a cluster, Cerberuses bite without retaliation and several at once, Imps steal mana, and this mana theft helps the Demon hero deal with the enemy hero, Hellhounds raise demons, Archdevils have an attack without retaliation plus teleportation movement, and I don't see any advantages with Demons; maybe Armageddon will drop, and that, combined with Efreet, is complete chaos!

you mentioned the strengths of Inferno. But other castles also have advantages, and these advantages are much greater than those of Inferno.

Citadel is awesome!!! In the first week, bears are the best (if you have enough resources), and in terms of strength, bears are third (after titans and black dragons).

Hmm...
The strongest creatures at level 1 are archangels...
I can tell you're a newbie...
Just browse the forum a bit more, and you'll find a lot of useful information...
