No one can match Glazopich in cursing! Even with the blessings of the Barbarians, he can remove immortality! :D :cool:

If possible, you should cast Forgetfulness on the Beholder to prevent it from causing too much trouble. And while they're moving, use your hero to dispel any negative spells and finish them off with archers.
This is, of course, the ideal scenario, but it's not always possible... unfortunately. They certainly pack a punch. It's unpleasant to encounter them in an open field. And as a rule, they guard various resources and skill schools.

That’s why, when you have Mindbender in your army, you can even attack with just one unit, the main thing is to protect it! :D And in a battle, the Mindbender will win if it casts Forgetfulness first! :D :cool:

Yes, that's a good idea. And it would be even better if you could hire him. There are some wonderful maps where the dwellings are exotic and not overused.

Yeah, it's all about luck again! :D But generally, the most useful creature in the Nature faction is the Mantis! :cool: Because it's strong in battle and also immobilizes enemies! :D :cool:

You can amass quite a few of them if you want. Especially if you can summon them onto the battlefield. But, in my opinion, that's not the way to go. No, they are certainly strong. I myself enjoy hiring them. But... I think nature units, like water elementals or hives, are more useful. And satyrs and dryads are pretty good too!

But... it seems to me that Nature has more utility in Water or Hive creatures.

They slow down the army when moving, and that's not a benefit, but rather the opposite! :D And the Praying Mantis moves amazingly well on the battlefield, and even outside of it! :cool:

In the voting, the Magic Dragon performed better. It shares second place with the Black Dragon, and that means something. The Mantis is cool, but there are just too few of them:(
During the voting, everything was taken into account, including the increase in the number of monsters.
And if we consider the monsters separately, then the Mantis is a beast (among the 4th-tier monsters).
I will express my opinion, and I think many will agree.
1. Mantises can be bought, they can be summoned.
2. Their advantage is that they can both simply restrain the enemy and deal with him on their own.
3. Even despite their small increase,

Yes, I agree. But they are irreplaceable for defending the castle. When there are many Water Elementals, it's tough. First, they inflict Slow, then you can use Weakness or Fatigue. For the lazy, there's also Ice Arrow, meaning a regular attack from this warrior deals cold damage (ice attack). Plus, it's an elemental (ideal against vampires), and of course, a mage (I've already explained this), and it has resistance to cold (ideal against Haven).
Hives are also good for defense. With Ice Arrow, they inflict Weakness.

Well, agree! After all, many people just like them.

The voting continues! Since you haven't voted yet, you can restore justice and push the two dragons in second place aside by putting a praying mantis there. Just list three monsters in descending order of usefulness. And as the once-respected Pandora said, it is desirable to hear a comment on the chosen units.
I will list useful monsters for an offline tournament:
1. Fairy (Retaliation - can defeat many detachments single-handedly)
2. Minotaur (Blocks attack - even one can wipe out a hundred CDs ;)
3. Diablo (+Ice Demon) (the most mobile warrior in battle, summons Ice Demons who can freeze the enemy detachment a bit :)
In combination with a hero who has certain types of magic it's totally awesome (for example, casting Retaliation on an Ice Demon)

How much does the Minotaur need to CARRY?:eek:
Yes, one Minotaur can take down a hundred Darklings :D, but it dies from a single Haven Mage! :D :cool:

Just how LUCKY does the minotaur have to be?:eek:
Yes, one mino crushes a hundred black nuts :D, but dies from a single Order mage! :D :cool:
This is what combat tactics in any strategy games are based on.

But one Order mage perishes from a hundred BN :) But we were talking about the usefulness and coolness of the monster - so out of these three I would choose the minotaur :) Its usefulness in the Walkthrough of the map is very significant.
