a single ballista is worth a lot at a high-level hero
And how many will it kill? Vitya is probably the weakest machine operator, useful at the beginning, but completely useless in the endgame. A tent is at least useful because it can remove blindness or dispel, but a ballista... pff.

How will you break through the neutral forces into adjacent territories? With machines or something?
Or will you spend money buying all sorts of weak units?
And how many will she kill?
Vitya is probably the weakest machine operator, useful at the beginning, but completely useless in the final.

deals only 300 damage
By the way, those are incorrect numbers. I think you didn't account for the triple shot, the attack of the ballista itself, or the potential skill for armor penetration.
And you didn't account for skills and spells that increase evasion, and a bunch of wasted skill points. It's funny, Menti, I thought you knew more. Besides, Haven doesn't start with a ballista, but with archers. And I'm telling you again that "late game" doesn't mean a bigger map, but a longer game, and therefore, more units, so don't tell me about rushing with Wite. You try yourself to attack someone with your ballista on normal maps, and then show how smart you are.

And I’m telling you again, “late game” doesn’t mean a bigger map, it means a longer game.
Vitya is useless in the late game. Only on small maps.
Besides, Haven’s starting units are not ballistas, but archers.
But you didn’t take into account the skills and spells for evasion, and a bunch of wasted skill points.
Try yourself on normal maps to attack someone with your ballista, and then show how smart you are.
The start for Haven isn't with a ballista, but with archers.
Although Dugald will definitely outperform Vitus in such a situation, yes, but he is the only one who is a record-breaker.

The tent is useful at least because it can remove blindness or confusion, but the ballista...
How will you clear neutral creatures on adjacent territories? With machines?

Отдай свои прошлые сны,
В сомненьях себя обрети,
В бешеном танце душа кружится!
Не думай, что будет потом,
Здесь и сейчас мы живем,
Стань хоть на миг сам собой, слышишь!
Furthermore, if Vitya uses fire arrows that ignore defense, it cuts off the path to retribution, and this cannot be allowed in the late game.
To which I reasonably replied, don't drag it out.
Everything depends on the game conditions. In a tournament, you definitely need to play quickly, but some people like to develop their strategy. Besides, there are maps where there are no astral gates, and you have to break through everyone.

Bison and demons are the best crew members; they focus on attack and knowledge, which directly affects the ballista's damage. Nightmares with messengers are not a good example; instead, provide an example with titans, devils, or lava drakes.
Devils and lava drakes will fall in the same way. It's more difficult with titans.

My friend constantly takes Vitus and doesn't complain. He quickly defeats neutrals, just like I do with mages:smile16:. You say to try with devils; in my opinion, devils are the weakest of the seven-level creatures. Vitus defeats them with a rapid-fire ballista, a decent number, if I'm not mistaken, around seven or more! And if he also gets the "Ring of Kinship with Machines":smile47:
