NightElf Strat talk

cyclone or just faerie fire and then focusing on the mortars would take them out in 2-3 waves, or cyclone to just disable the heavier units until you get alock on the battle situation

 

[Mahucharn]

well thats true... when in doubt use cyclone

Hense Spell brakers.

Also, nothing can be more devistating than a steam tank army! I got totally wiped after a steam tank rush. Only problem is the lack of melee damage.

 

[Mahucharn]

siege engines are over armored, only noobs use them because if you use them, you pretty much win.

 

[risen_jihad]

nothing beats sorcerer/arch mage /mortar tech of death!...except...any real strategy or trusight...
I thought that cyclone made unit invulnerable and couldn't be dispelled?

 

[beedy]

erm yes it can be dispelled.

Not true at all. Mostj nubs can't beat them, but they aren't THAT bad.

raiders, for example, can completely devastate a steam tank force.

omfg LOL GO CHANNEL CLAN EVE AND ASK U.... ARGH-,- hate ladder noobs-,-

 

[Lord_Phoenix]

I must be super noob if I don't know what Clan Eve is...

What's everyones win/loss record, anyways?
My total is like 49.6% or around there. However, I had my account since it came out,basically, so I have alot of dumb losses on there.

 

[Mahucharn]

well I guess thats true, every unit has their strengths and weaknesses.

Against computers. Look at it hero to hero, however. If another hero comes after you in a harass game, the DH will win because it'll drain all the spell mana, and has plenty of hp.

I can't play otherwise . That's why my tactics are good against computers .

this is for b.net solo. :-/

k lets talk about countering Undead for NE. i usually have no problem but 1 day while having bears,dryads a Dark Ranger and a Panda, my undead enemy totally smeared my army to the ground with Mass Wagons, Aboms, Ghouls DK and Lich. The wagons totally destroyed my dryads, i think i had too little bears cause they all died before they even go near the enemy heroes. So, basically, my bears got nuked by coil and novas, thus i end up being defeated.

I forgot the very good quote: " When in doubt, use cyclone" lol.

anyway how do you htink i can counter that kind of undead army i stated above?

 

[Mahucharn]

try using human rifle men, knights, and footmen, human units = usually good against undead.

I think this topic was about NE StratS? Not about HumaN?

However, I think some Mountain Giants might do well, and some Talons for Cyclon and Faerie Fire, and as they don't have anti-air, you might get some air too...

Just my opinion...

 

[beedy]

hmmm well that might work. anyway yea, this is about NIghtelves, not humans.

 

[risen_jihad]

I've never really liiked mountain giants, the cost of them is just so high, that if you can't expand, they really are a pain sometimes to get. And in 1v1, if they rush or aggro at all you might not have the time to get them. Plus bears can turn back to druid form and use regeneration, while mountain giants are best when u fully get all the upgrades, and you are looking at alot of rsources spent

 

[Monovertex]

I don't see this in your original post .

 

[risen_jihad]

yeah, playing night elf is totally different in a FFA as opposed to 1v1 or even 3v3. They play slightly similar, but massing archers will not cut it in 3v3 and maybe one in 12 games youll win in 1v1

 

[beedy]

er.. massing archers could win a game if you got super micro (like Moon ) for 1v1s.

 

[Lord_Phoenix]

*sigh* Even then, not really. If you can find a way to get close enough to them, you'll win.
