Mages are a super race. I think they don't even need to upgrade their special ability. Artifacts are awesome. +63% magic resistance and +5 life. + Summon Phantom.

Yes, it's all great, but... what to do at the beginning when none of this exists? :)
Unless you use the same Razak or Hafiz... but what if you have different heroes?

I was destroying pumped-up Dryads on the second week (playing as Jalib). It was a bit scary, but out of three lightning spells, only one hit, plus I had some luck. Jalib is also pretty good at the start, especially against Dungeon and maybe Necropolis:smile19: The only problem is with the other factions, but I think if you play Jalib smartly, you can get a mine by the second week (the main thing is to have Dryads or mages stationed there...).

It's difficult to play as the Academy, starting with city development. It's no secret that even building mages requires 10 sulfur, which is problematic in itself at the beginning. So, in the first week, you can only build Gremlins and Imps. Building Golems is not profitable – you lose 5 crystals (or whatever that blue stuff is called) and can forget about your dreams of building a Djinn altar. I prefer to play as the Hive – it's the only hero who can realistically compete for resources at the beginning of the game; all the others are useless.
The advantage of the Academy is its mini-artifacts. By equipping your army with these items, you get practically terminators.

I was taking down leveled-up creatures on the second week (playing as Jalib). It was a bit scary, but only one out of three lightning bolts hit, plus I had some luck.

I agree, Jalib is a good hero for dealing with neutral creatures, but what about Necropolis here?

The thing is, it's no longer that easy for a Necromancer to cast Dark Spells (and if Sandro's Cloak is added, it will be even better)... so he'll go for Summoning, and Mages are also very good at Summoning)). And if you consider Darkness to be the strongest magic, then Jalib is good at countering it, and you can take him against a Necromancer, although there are better heroes)).

Well, that's a good explanation. I personally think Jalib is one of the best heroes in the Academy, because of his ability. But Jalib can't counter Horror Scream and mass Darkness spells, only something like Berserk or Dominate. So I think the Necromancer will rather cast something like Mass Dispel. And as for Sandro's Cloak, it's not just for Jalib, but for any hero except Barbarians, so I personally don't like this artifact. :mad: :mad: :mad:

It probably depends on the opponent. If it's a Dwarf, we equip the Gnomish Armor. If it's a Mage, we probably equip that too. Against other opponents, it's better to equip the Shadow Cloak, or the Dragon Armor, since we have three flying units anyway.

I wouldn't agree that Jaleeb won't counter mass spells. Firstly, his ability doesn't just reflect spells; it redirects them to another unit. Secondly, Jaleeb starts with luck, which means there's a chance to increase magic resistance, and we shouldn't forget about the skill that provides defense with reflection (although it works differently than magic resistance). Thirdly, we create mini-artifacts. Regarding dealing with neutral creatures, Nur with his rubber mana is still better.

What does “doesn’t counter” mean?! It’s clear that his ability doesn’t work here. I meant magical resistance: the chance that a spell will be deflected. And spells are deflected not only by Jalib, but also by heroes of this or another faction. For example, Marbas can deflect a mass spell (all spells or part of them), not to mention the gnomish or barbarian luck... I repeat: I meant magical resistance, not the deflection of a spell onto an enemy or allied unit.

Then what's the point of discussing Jalib? Anyone can acquire magic resistance.
