It's not that OP. Orcs get deathcoil for free and two deathcoils is usually enough to do same damage as polymorph. Spellcasters were OP in general though.

Everyone knows that bloodlusted ogres beat knights hard. What I wanted to see though (since it looked like a script to cast BL automatically) was how Paladins would fare if there was some sort of automatic casting of heal. Would make for a lot more interesting and unpredictable results.

@samuelhakansson6680

@@ragnarok1er840 the way bloodlust is calculated, it doubles both base damage and upgrade damage. Since armour values are flat, you get a huge percentage damage increase when you increase the base damage with bloodlust, up to 3 times as much damage dealt by an ogre compared to the damage done by a knight. Plus its always advantageous to have fewer but stronger units in a large battle, because you will have a higher percentage of the ogres taking part in combat vs the knights who cant use their numerical advantage because there just isnt enough room to fit them all. All in all, ogres outtrade knights tremendously hard, and this is one of the big design flaws of Warcraft 2.

5:35 Back then, Hero units are just ordinary units but with higher stats, unique portraits and quotes (Gul'dan actually has *lower* stats if I remember). It can actually be a liability to send them to battle especially if it's Mission Failed if they die. Mages/Death Knights are the most dangerous because of their spells, especially Polymorph as shown here. I actually had a hard time playing the *first* mission of Beyond the Dark Portal (playing those campaigns for the first time) because the Death Knights keep specifically targeting the heroes.

No, Gul'Dan had identical stats to Death Knights. Cho'Gall I think had 100 health instead of the 90 the Ogre Magi units did, but I could be mistaken. Uther had the same as the Paladins and Lothar had the same as the Knights. They only ever really buffed the heroes in BTDP.

World of Warcraft: Deathwing is an unstoppable force of nature! It’s going to take a massive raid of high ilvl players to even stand a chance! WCII Khadgar: chill out, I got this.

What a pleasant surprise. Its 2022, Warcraft 2, HAIL TO THE OLD BLIZZARD, The game looks magnificent, it plays magnificent, its masterpiece. Id like to watch more army fights. Thank you.

Nice to see a fight club on one of the games from my childhood) For future ideas: heroes duels and comparisons with groups of normal units might be interesting

I saw that Khadgar Deatwing result from miles away. I used the same tactic in final mission of humans base game to kill every dragon coming my way once I got pallys to ward off death knights

I remember as a kid carrying my pc to my friend's house(1km or so) walking on the street total nerd, no other way to get it there did not care what people had to say or think just wanted to warcraft. First multiplayer experience of my life. Amazing memories this was a special game

the voice and sound effects are so brutal, amplifies the horrificness 100 fold

Watching this gave me so much nostalgia. What a cool video idea!

loved watching it just for the sounds, so many memories.

Great idea for a video! I did pretty well, got all of em right except the first one: I underestimated just how strong Blizzard really was, though it was still pretty close. It was surprising how close so many of them were, though with the final battle once I saw that horde I knew there was no chance for the alliance. Great vid!

Nice to see someone is still playing

Hell yeah! I remember have won an epic 4vs1 3.5 hours game. Many good souvenirs. The birth of multiplayer strategy gaming!

The times where Warcraft was actual grim and brutal.

I was today years old when I discovered this glorious channel. Also, pesky pesky death knights.

Another fantastic AI gladiator arena. Bloodlust actually triples Ogre damage. It doubles the normal attack and piercing damage changing ogre max damage from 8 to 24.

@StuGames

Жыл бұрын

You're right! The attack power is doubled, but as you say the actual damage can be tripled (or even more in some cases!), which happens because of the enemy's armor. Say (simplified) ogres do 16 damage and knights have 8 armor. Then they do 16-8 = 8 damage. With bloodlust, they do 32-8 = 24 damage, three times as much!

*holy shy67t* i spent tens of hours map making back in the day... i even had the 'hack-ed' map editor which let you push units past their programmed limit of 9999 int 65355 and build on top of trees. i ultimately quit because redesigning the A.I. was impossible for my limited programming skills and my BGH maps turned into the computer just sitting in the corner licking its wounds, refuse to re-engage me for multiple rounds of blood spilling gore. did you use TAS to make the units cast their spells so fast? man i wish there was an auto feature ! i remember having to lust each individual unit, spending several minutes outside enemy bases before bum rushing the place... wow. this is one of the coolest WCII videos i've ever seen.

Dang I was really looking forward to some CnC Tib-Sun Fight Clubs, but WC2 will do for now lol

gosh I haven't played this game since I was 12 but if I remember right, those arrow towers (static defence) was so strong that in pvp it could easily cause a very long stalemate and even though both factions were identically the same they still made the alliance over powered. Also I was glad Blizzard never repeated naval combat in any other games they made since.

That was like the exact number of orcs those mages could take out

cette envie de nostalgie ... aller une petite campagne vite fait ^^

wow this is a pleasant surprise!

Khadgar vs Deathwing fight was epic.

I think for the bigger battles you need to increase the size of the arena, otherwise the differences in unit numbers don’t make any difference. There’s just a line of twenty units down the screen and everyone is just standing around behind it.

Best video ever, a rug from brazil

The destroyers could have beaten the griffon riders if they had moved quickly to the middle of the griffon riders, so that the area effect damage from the griffon attacks also damaged the griffons. Sometimes the battle micro/tactics are more decisive than the amount and type of units.

Some things never change

I couldn't make a prediction on the final fight, I was just in awe

the ogre knight fight may have played out differently if the knights were allowed to wrap around
