    Humans are boring...

    Personally i think naga should've been developed as a fully playable (multiplayer and all) race, i'm sure they wouldn't screwed the balance too bad...

    Erm, the focus in the frozen throne was on just about every race BUT the humans... Their storyline was kinda crappy imo. And rojo, you forgot those turtles. They were basically just kodo beasts in another skin, but they could swim man. Awesome.

    Avatar ability isn't nearly as cool as methamorphosis of the demon hunter or the vengeance thingy of the warden. :D

    Mountain Kings are FANTASTIC.

    I always get them, unless it's against Undead. I get a Paladin for obvious reasons.

    Hell, this is my preferred...

    Human - Mountain King, Paladin, Archmage, Blood Mage
    Night Elf - Keeper of the Grove, Warden, Demon Hunter, Priestess of the Moon
    Undead - Crypt Lord, Death Knight, Lich, Dreadlord
    Orc - Far Seer, Tauren Chieftain, Blademaster, Shadow Hunter

    Of course it isn't always like that, it's just my favorites.

    It'll change easily with whoever I'm playing against.

    Edit: Oh yeah, and Goblin Tinker or Panderan Brewmaster if I get a hero from the tavern.

    Pandarens kick ass. But why priestress of the moon last? Starfall in the middle of an enemy base is devastating... Demon hunter is cooler, but I find it much less usefull.

    It's devastating, but she's so fragile and unable to fend for herself I find.

    I know shame on you if you don't protect her, or send her in alone...

    But in the time it takes for Starfall to kill everything, all the enemy units can just target her, and her alone.

    I Play Undead Like I Play Zerg

    Being true to my love of the Zerg race in Starcraft I can only play Undead in WC3.

    Why:rolleyes:? Simply because Ghouls reminds me of Zerglings. They both have enhanced attack and movement speed upgrade. Crypt Fiends remind me of Hydralisks because they are both ranged attackers and are perfect anti-air units. Also, they both can burrow. With the new addition of the Crypt Lord, it being a bug akin to that of the zerg, in The Frozen Throne the Undead race is the perfect Zerg-like race there is. :cool:

    Many orc players do HH vs elf because they can't micro grunts effectively, which means they are slower turning out their first units. With that assumption, POM is good with mass archers because of the aura. It's an effective combination vs orc if you rush them with mass archers + POM, take out a couple of their units, portal back, heal from wells, then attack wave two, and keep putting in more archers.

    I play as orc.
    In WOW and War3 Orc is so fun.

    Bloodlust and Farseer are a nice combo when you summon x2 giant wolves! Undead are a toss up for me, but any other race goes down when the destroyers get to their expos!
    I don't know how anybody can play human, that takes way too much skill for me!

    taking over strategic parts of the map with watchtowers and voodoo lounges is key!!

    Human isn't much skill as it is a good unit combination for countering what the other player(s) is(are) cooking up.

    Like how Orcs can't dispel anything so you can abuse Sorceresses.

    I played melee so rarely, I don't even remember. Probably nightelves though.
    Spent most of my time playing custom games (no not DotA), so...

    I used to be an avid Battle.Net Ladder player ; with Undead being my favourite race to play as, and Human a close second. Eventually, I just got bored of certain gameplay aspects of WC3, so I`ve turned to playing CoH now.

    Preferred Hero picks

    1. Human - Paladin, Archmage, Mountain King, Blood Mage
    2. Orc - Farseer, Blademaster, Troll Witch Doctor, Tauren Chieftain
    3. Undead - Death Knight, Lich, Dread Lord, Crypt Lord
    4. Night Elf - Warden, Demon Hunter, Keeper of the Grove, Priestess of the Moon
