Is it better to have a lot of mana and constantly cast spells and curses, or to have powerful but fewer combat spells?

It primarily depends on the type of magic. Summoning and Chaos are geared towards high-level magic (summoning a phoenix quickly or hitting with a chilling blast to immediately turn the tide of battle, provided the spells are powerful enough). Darkness and Light are focused on knowledge, as the duration of many spells depends on the level of magic, so a large number of spells isn't necessary (5-6 is quite sufficient).

I almost always invest in spellcasting, because by level 20-25, the hero will have 15-20 knowledge points anyway, and having an advantage in spellcasting (which means more damage from direct-effect spells) is more important.

Don't say that. I played an Orc with a focus on learning, and at level 27, he had 8 points in Knowledge. Although, of course, an Orc doesn't really need either, but even for a Tech Tree character, Knowledge grows slowly, and mana is very much needed.

I wouldn't say so. I played an Orc with a good education, and at level 27, with artifacts, his knowledge was 8. Although, of course, neither knowledge nor education is really needed for an Orc, but even for a Tech Elemental, knowledge grows slowly, and mana is very much needed.
P.S.: Usually, people play Tech Elementals on XL maps.

The Town Portal's mana regeneration is slow, but on large maps, it will almost always result in a high mana pool.

Combat effectiveness on any map depends on the speed of development. And if, after capturing each mine, you have to spend a day recharging mana, then there's not much hope.

Until you have a good army, spells will save you. And in many cases, to win a battle with little or no losses, you need to use spells. So, mana will be spent.

Of course, Sorcery is better – it’s better to cast one powerful spell than many weak ones, and you won’t lose your army for long.

IMHO, too much knowledge isn't useful, especially if the hero is Nurah or Irbet. I think magic is better.

Sorcery is better for Chaos and Summoning magic, while knowledge is better for Light and Darkness. But don't overdo it with knowledge, as mages sometimes have hundreds of mana for cheap and weak spells.

As for the mage and his knowledge, you can never have too much, and the more he knows, the better, because it directly affects the level of minor artifacts.

Still, mages often have very little mana, so you can't make a good Chaos or Summoning mage, even though they often get Summoning spells.
P.S. This is not the first time I've encountered an outright underestimation of mages, but in online tournaments, a mage is considered one of the most inconvenient opponents

Yes, that’s right. You need to assess the situation and make decisions accordingly, as many things depend on it.
