Add to that the fact that a large share, possibly majority, of the pilots in the battle of Britain were actually Polish expats who escaped when their country fell(when Britain who against their absolute guarantee to protect them abandoned them to their fate,) they deserve at least a little bit of respect.

My friend who hosted the map was so excited the hosted twisted meadows instead of gnoll wood. Lucifer came in and just said "? Wrong map." and left again. When we played, Lucifer randomed and still got his main race UD. I played NE and decided my only way to even remotely have a chance was the element of surprise...so I "surprise" him with chimes, forgetting that back then the normal way to go for UD vs NE was gargs anyway..I felt so embarassed but it was still an awesome experience. The best success for me was stealing one map off of Protois! I lost 1v2 against him.

    Honestly think they should give Wind-riders the berserker-destroyer treatment. Make their current form weaker, less pop dmg & hp, and come out earlier. Give them a T3 upgrade that allows them to morph or "grow" into Wyvern Matriarch riders, like a Destroyer would, that would be a stronger, tougher, and higher pop version than the current values.

Even if u can't heal during battle, having out of battle free healing with Healing Wards plus Visions should be good enough.

    @@tamaslengyel1497 The main reason why Witch Doctor isn't S-tier in competitive play is due to how its god-tier spells aren't available quickly and require quite a while to actually get. Pretty much the exact same reason for Shaman despite it too also having probably the most god-tier buff spell in the game. Basically, because production centers can't produce units while researching upgrades, competitive players prefer units that are immediately useful without research upgrades, which then become super good when they get enough down time to start doing production structure research. Orc spellcasters are kind of the extreme anathema of this, as they start off barely being able to do anything but get researched into giga-casters...aka you have the buy and spend time building a Spirit Lodge then proceed to buy and research 2 upgrades on it just to make the units it produces finally good. Oh, and said researches also require higher tech tiers in your main command structure so that's extra expensive without producing anything yet. So it takes a LONG time that your opponent is using making units and killing you with resources that they spent on things immediately powerful. So if it takes so many hurdles to get an S-tier unit, then you have to survive long enough to get past all of those hurdles while spending resources as the cost of those hurdles, it becomes questionable whether or not it's worth doing that for said S-tier unit.

Pretend it's a giant golf club, and use it to either turn the enemy's front line into their back line, or to send a fellow Tauren airborne to the enemy's back line.

    Half the Blood Elf units are already in the game and the other three are reskins of existing Human and Night Elf units. They're just a shittier Human because they lack several units. Naga aren't even playable outside of a handful of campaign levels anyway and one of their units, the Royal Guard, can't even be trained from any building either. Neither faction has a full melee game tech tree, and being campaign units, they aren't effected by melee game balance patches.

    I thought Blood Elves were just reskinned humans. And Naga would thematically be cool if they were reskinned NightElves, at least I always thought the Tidal Guardian pool thing looked like moonwells. Would be a fun mechanic if the Naga could only build on water which kinda acted as their creep. And they could spread it and it would give them bonus movement speed.

    As usual, very high quality and fun analysis on units and balance with other races! Imho tier 2 for taurens is a good change. I'd give taurens an option to switch between two forms: damage dealing tank/bruiser (faster movespeed and crit chance) - 'enraged form' and tanky, hard hiting, but slow (resist skin + pulverize) - 'tank form'. With this change, I would also decrease cost a bit and pop to 4, but also hp to maybe 1000hp (to lower their power in tier 2). Basically you would choose between the 2 forms based on situation. Tier 3 would unlock maybe the tank form to be researched and enraged as baseline (activation and changing form would have cooldown ofc). These changes would make taurens flat out better than grunts >> no overlaping; versatility >> even if opponent spies out your totem, they don't know what type/form of taurens you have (bruiser high single target+good initiation at tier 2, so you have something other than raiders; you upgraded to tier 3 and you also researched the tanky form). Wyverns also suffer the same design issue as taurens. I think gryphons could be a good template for wyverns for damage, role, stats etc. Plus you need to balance their envenomed spears.

    I used to play on local servers, and it was very early Warcraft. Before the Internet, before the rapid spread of knowledge and new tactics. And I loved playing as Orcs because they were very much about brute force, which fit very well with my strategy-based play style. Many people have tried to imitate the tactics of professional players, but it rarely works. Micro, knitting, hero-based game - you need to be able to do all this very well for it to work. I didn't do anything like that. I played Warcraft as a mass strategy game, I focused on bringing a bigger and better army into battle, and that was it. This worked great against many people who tried to imitate professional players, but ended up wasting a lot of money and attention on unnecessary things. And the taurens were amazing in this sense, they pulvurized everything in their path. Yes, they don't work in high-level battles, but in terms of simple arithmetic, they are op.

    Hi Grubby, I have an interesting idea about pulverise. How about we make a balance change which changes the aoe from a circle around the tauren to a cone originating from the center of the unit and is facing the taurens direction. I think this would benefit them greatly since they are most often wrecking other frontliners, and the cone damage would propagate behind those frontline units to damage the much more vulnerable rest of the army. Not sure about the AoE, but I trust Blizzard 💀 will make the balanced number. 🙏

    Getting to hear all your thoughts about each unit which you've been familiar with for twenty years is great (especially in the case of orcs), however I'd say it's weird that you tiered Peasant/Militia and HH/Berserker separately but didn't do the same with Druids and Bears--and Crows but like who cares. They are even more different, I guess it's understandable because if you're using DotC you're never not using Bears but still. Love the videos as always!

    I know this is Grubbys subjective tier list and he doesn't like Wind Riders, but putting Wind Riders into the same tier as Demolishers is bit wild lol, since Wind Riders atleast get used in high tier pro games for example Lyn vs Happy few weeks ago. Also I think a case could be made for Kodos being S since they are just so universally good in all match ups. Love the content!

    Grubby I am sorry, but every single day theres a top Orc using mass wyvs vs UD as a go to, as I type this it is SoIn vs 120.. Lyn (and FoCus also) has achieved multiple wins v Happy using this mass strat.. Im going to pause here, isnt a unit that you can mass and win Happy automatically better than a D? Think about it ... Token wyvs also see play against mass T1 elf strats. Obv mirror and Hu MU are difficult bcs of flyings and bats, but all I wrote above I think rates Wyvs at least a high C. Looking forward to your response. Dearly your fan from Czech republic! :)

    Ye I have no doubt that Grubby's points are valid, but it is interesting how all the way up to the pro level we still sometimes see mass wyvs. And not just against UD. I think it is kind of like a 4 pool in Broodwar. Not in that it is a rush, but the type of strategy that isn't supposed to be good, but occasionally you can steal a win. The opponent doesn't react quite right, the unit performs better than it should, and the game snowballs into a win.

    Wind riders on bloodlust + endurance + kodo is one of the fastest nuke in game but it starts working once you have a very large army, which is most common in ffa. In 100 food fights it's one of the scariest units. The key is to have right number of them so a single volley of attacks kills a full hp enemy unit or 2 vollies kills a hero. They are also the best answer too 100 food gryphon/frost wyrm that orc has imo

    This is the one I've been waiting for. Orc faction in WC3 is still dear to my heart even 20+ years later. EDIT: 16:43 No, you're not the only one to notice that trend. Much of pan-Asia is exceptionally culturally conservative compared to the west. South Korea and Japan are very forward thinking on matters of technology for sure, but outside of that they tend to focus on an 'evolution over revolution' approach to things. I think it's good to have this exchange of both methods within a competitive scene because it's what keeps the game interesting, but without turning into a flash-in-the-pan novelty. (something that kills most games in the RTS genre these days, or at least, keeps them from becoming viable competition)

    1:00:53 I think the shorter range might also have this visual bias effect, because it's a beautiful graphical circle AoE, where bounds might not be clear and it has to be in range of the center of AoE and not the edge. Purge on the other hand is like a dot and might work on a unit whenever it's in unit's bounds, meaning it can be on the edge, doesn't have to target middle of the unit. So dispelling a chubby Pitlord is way shorter range, than dispelling four Treants. But what do I know, it's just a guess.

    I posted the idea of a Charge for Tauren but you mentioned it about 30 seconds later... Would also be cool if they had a Log Toss ability which would make them toss their main weapon for massive ranged damage. This would leave them dealing damage with their fists instead for a certain amount but would make them able to deal damage (albeit on a CD) versus Ranged or Air units. The Tauren unit is a very bare and mediocre unit at the moment that has a lot of potential to be a great one

Was RoC so caster-focused that the current situation (esp for orc), where casters can be countered so hard by units that are also just good, is preferable?

    Hurts to See Wyvern Tier D as they were my Go to unit against Nightelf, combined with BM and a few Grunts. With the right Timing and commitments (2 Rax) you can get 4-6 Wyvern before the Night Elf has a significant amount of Dryads. If you fail the early Tier 2 Attack, you are normally doomed, but few Night Elfs think of Wyvern and have a counter ready by then. At least that's how I went against Night Elf and it was quite successful as many were surprised to see Wyvern instead of Raiders.

    If you are up against Human and have both Walkers and Shamans, you could get the Breakers to waste their Mana (which doesn't have a very high maximum) stealing Spirit Link, which you keep Disenchanting off the Human army (since Spell Steal is single target and Spirit Link is 4 target and Disenchant is AoE), and THEN fire up the Bloodlust. Gets less good once their Archmage gets to high level and pumps Brilliance Aura, but that was somewhat nerfed in a recent patch.
