Posts from what to use against Wingael?
In Tier 3, the defense is low, and you might not even have time to move your hero around before the opponent casts antimagic on your archers. It's worth a try. And what else should you upgrade besides Darkness?
Place 6 (5) hunters and a stack of 6 level girls with invisibility. Have them all go invisible and cast spells for three turns.
Not at all. You can get a good advantage later with magic resistance.

The magic of light and the storm wind will help you – 20% initiative reduction and -2 to the speed of flying creatures.
Invisibility doesn't help as much against players as it does against units. If they have a Crystal of Secrecy or a Wall of Swords, this problem is quickly solved, and there are enough ways to counter it anyway, especially for such a high-initiative race.
In general, it's good if you have Darkness with mass Dispel, Keen Mind, and the Staff of Sar-Iss, then you can quickly eliminate the archers, otherwise, there's a good chance that unicorns with additional magic resistance will save them.
Another option would be a dwarven set – instant mass Stone Skin and mass Dodge.

Choose Orcs; your opponent will have no chance against them. It's impossible to win Wingael with any other race (unless you find the Staff that reduces the enemy's initiative by 20% or the Ring that increases the ally's initiative by 20%, provided that your opponent doesn't have any artifacts that increase initiative).
No race except Orcs can defeat Wingael (if you know how to play as Elves), because they have the resilience to withstand any initial attack, while other races have nothing, and they will be utterly crushed with minimal losses due to luck, the sworn enemy, and dragons with acid breath (two squads at a time), plus archers who ignore 50% of defense.

As for withstanding attacks, Humans and Dwarves are also resilient; you can try them against Wingael. And mages with powerful mini-artifacts can outpace him in initiative.
