Posts from Favorite hero on duel servers.

I suggest playing these matchups against strong players (not including myself). Axel has few chances, practically against any hero, but they exist, and with skillful play, they approach fifty percent, both against Ossir (General Dodge, Vengeance – these are very helpful, and of course, Luck and Morale should be present) and against Anven (General Stone Skin). I remember once defeating Helmar with Axel (Helmar actively used runes and Divine Might). But against Vitya, he is practically powerless. The problem is that it is very difficult for Axel to remove Blindness from the Paladins; only he can do it himself, and he will spend precious 10 mana points, which he desperately needs for his second General Dodge or General Stone Skin. It is quite difficult to reach the Archers with the Archmages. Of course, if Axel has Luck and Morale for two out of three turns, then yes (and even then, if Vitya is not a fool, he will still find a way). Vitya against Ossir is a rather common matchup; everyone has studied it for a long time. If Ossir is played correctly, he defeats everyone with a probability slightly greater than fifty-fifty, or even greater, and Vitya is no exception. Here, everything is decided by the ranged units, and in 70 cases out of 100, they decide in favor of Ossir. The Archers manage to destroy both the Archers and the Ballistas. Then the Knights do the rest. Also, this 40 percent resistance and General Cure All are important. Against Anven, Vitya uses a similar tactic as against Axel: cast Evil, blind the melee units if they are not in front of the Archers. The only difference is that Blindness is quite easily removed by the Druids here. In general, I am now coming to the conclusion that Ayra is still more of a queen of the server than Ossir, the king. She defeats almost everyone with a higher probability than Ossir. And the Ayra-Ossir pair is a pair that cannot be analyzed or calculated; everything is decided by luck and Morale (randomness). If you have any opinions on this, please share them

Yes :) I think Ossir is definitely better than the blonde :) I played against her and couldn't do anything. Axel, with skillful play, can defeat almost anyone, that's true. And Ossir is no exception. Yes, that's how it is. But again, you need good tactics. So that luck is on your side. And it's not difficult to remove Axel's evasion. And even in large numbers :) So it's better not to take that risk. As for my opponents, they are not weak)))

I'm not arguing that Ossir is stronger than Axel, it's just that everything there depends on luck, morale, and the arena. Axel might get lucky, and Ossir won't be able to do anything about the rampaging paladins. I also forgot about blindness, which adept can remove. Overall, it's a pretty interesting matchup – a test of Ossir's skill level. I don't want to say anything about your opponents; there are many strong players on Ubi now, and there are hardly any weak ones left, which is a good thing.

I used to love Jalib. Now I like Axel. He's quite an original hero; his strength lies in resurrection, divine retribution, and paladins.

I agree, Axe is simply amazing! He wins beautifully and gracefully.
I would also put him in first place for his style. Let's thank 3.0 for that. He fights very nicely with Victor and Deirdre. By the way, Diablo believes that Axe is stronger than Victor, while Dex believes the opposite, that Victor is stronger. My opinion is closer to Diablo's.
The potential of this pair lies only in the game with Vittorio.
Dirael can also defeat almost any hero if she's lucky, and she can get lucky, which is nice. She is very good against Galib, Garuna, and Victor; there are some very interesting matchups there.

I sing songs of the beautiful Diraeli, her victories are simply a sight to behold.
- In the battle against Galib, even with unfavorable Rakshasas and a more or less correct positioning of the opponent, she managed to snatch a victory. I should note, however, several significant mistakes by the opponent, in particular, an incorrect priority in targeting.
- And Ibba simply got caught in the crossfire.

Forgot to mention, Direal versus a not-so-weak Nibush, played by a decent yatahase).

Well, the Iris-Ossir pairing is unpredictable and defies analysis; luck and morale (randomness) play a decisive role. If you have any opinions on this, please share them.

Doesn't Iris defeat Ossir? :confused: Effective blocking of archers with crystals and a strike from above on a unit that the opponent is unlikely to control (e.g., unicorns or blocked archers), stone skin on incas, inspiration at the right moment, etc. I think Iris has a 70% chance of winning against Ossir with equal skill.

Doesn't Iris easily defeat Ossir? :confused: Smart blocking of Crystal Archers with crystals and a strike from above on some unit that the opponent definitely won't control (let's say unicorns or blocked archers), Stone Skin for the Incas, Inspiration at the right moment, etc. I think Iris has a 70% chance of winning against Ossir with equal skill.

There is a tactic for Ossir that works against any hero. We shoot at the Cursed Ones, use horses and Ents to rush forward and deal heavy damage to enemy units. It even works against Iris, regardless of the skill level of the Ossir or Iris player. But seriously, in this matchup, everything is both simple and complex at the same time. Blocked archers can be teleported (I rarely make mistakes in choosing which archers to teleport), and it's very difficult for griffons to hit the horses (especially at the beginning of the battle). Overall, my opinion on this matchup hasn't changed. Luck and morale decide everything. If the horses manage to hit with a lucky strike, the advantage will be with Ossir. I've lost with Iris against Ossir (even against fairly weak players), but I haven't yet lost with Ossir against Iris. It's a matchup that depends on luck. I don't like either Ossir or Iris, and their encounter is terrible.

Axe is awesome, he's a beast. Of course, his opponents made a lot of mistakes, but you need to understand what Axel is capable of in the right hands. And maybe, with a bit of luck, Axel can defeat almost any hero in one turn! It's always a pleasure to win with him).

Axe is awesome, he's great. Of course, his opponents made many mistakes, but you need to understand what Axel is capable of in the right hands. And maybe, with a bit of luck, Axel can defeat almost any hero in one turn! It's always nice to win with him.

I agree that he can win and that he's a good hero. I haven't watched the replay against Leto, because I know that it's possible to win without any problems. But I did watch the other two. I haven't seen such stupid games with Ossira and Sinita. With such a setup for Ossira (with open archers), he can be defeated even by Garuna. And Sinita?))) He attacks with a dragon on the very first turn)) What kind of move is that?))) And what are the Earth Shocks for?))) The opponents are playing terribly.

P.S. Axel will hardly be able to win against Sinita. He has no defense against her magic. I once played this match with Primus (he doesn't appear often now). I didn't get lucky with a single cast against Sinita. I won. And my opponent wasn't stupid=))

I like: Nimue, Haggle, and Karl x)). Because their army and abilities are just awesome!

Well, I said that winning with him is always enjoyable, and the opponent's level doesn't hinder that. Whether you beat a strong opponent or a weak one, it's still a victory with a strong hero. Although I agree that there's no point in posting boring replays, I probably won't do that anymore. But where can you find them now on the Uplay platform? Strong players, if they appear, only play for rating, or interesting matchups rarely occur, or the duel turns out to be simply terrible, with a one-sided defeat due to complete bad luck, etc. Oh, a miracle! I still saved the replay with a strong player; we played on random maps, and Helm and Orson were the heroes. In my opinion, Helm will be much stronger, but it should be noted how stubbornly Starley fights until the very end; he's really strong:smile25:

Probably Sinistar. Because if luck favors the most powerful spells, most heroes won't be able to handle it. So, using the "Armageddon" spell is extremely, even fatally dangerous – if luck is on your side, all of Sinistar's troops will be destroyed.

There's plenty of room for competitive gameplay.
