EPTWhat flash was to Brood War. It was always a shock to see him lose.
Not only that, but he innovated so much crap; aow golem dot vs tanks especially stands out
And, he and infi had some of the epicest expansion matches.

He makes good use of spamming sentry wards + stasis traps around the map plus healing wards. I don't think NE players have an answer to this new style of play. | ||

I just watched the three games of TheLordo casted by SirPurebe. Looks like he camps in his base with very little til he has master WD and Spirit Walkers... It takes a long time... The Night Elf can freely tech, creep, and expand in the meantime. The game he lost, five Faerie Dragons crushed him. The other two games, there weren't many Faerie Dragons or wisp bombs and he was able to hold a line he could freely place healing wards and stun traps behind. It looks a bit cheesy, that can be beaten easy by faerie dragons and dryads, or maybe just good positioning. | ||

He's managed to easily defeat well known players like Nicker with his mass witch doc + spirit walker + BM/TC/SS.

But i think Dots and archers would do well; Demon neutralizes the TC. Dots the BM. (SS is ...) Archers > casters. It's typically a NE vs NE build but in this way i think it would work quite well. | ||

It's typically a NE vs NE build but in this way i think it would work quite well. Thats not actually how he plays it from the two games I've seen (nicker being one of them). For starters it is BM/SS/TC and aura first for TC so there is no neutralization to be had. SS is good because he prioritizes wards after lvl3 (with hex) and it deals good dmg to whatever his composition is weak against, namely dryads. And ofc orbing up that BM and hoping for that imba crit item drop which also will destroy archers. It is fun to watch but I agree, it would be beaten by any top player if anyone actually cared about this game anymore. This isn't even completely new I have even seen grubby play around with 2x spirit lodges and t3 witch doctors years and years ago. | ||

Decided to play it again instead of SC2 a while ago. Managed to play like 300 games of 1v1 in September before WoW:MoP came out. It's fairly addictive. Even on West there were constant 1v1s. Was NE in 2004, played Human instead when I came back. I find HU vs Orc's my easiest MU, whereas I struggled with UD till I found out about the Paladin abuse and that you had to not use casters :s. Militia creeping's fun, but I hate footmen - they die to everything soo easily! Great to see a community on TL repping the game. EU's pretty bad for me (I already play with 200 ms on US), and I'm not sure if I'm gonna play it again, but if I do I might check this out. That Moon vs Sky video was painful to watch as a Human player. Sheesh at the Zeppelin micro. http://classic.battle.net/war3/ladder/W3XP-player-profile.aspx?Gateway=Lordaeron&PlayerName=xG.Kx-K.nG-. Man I wish the stat report pages still worked. Amazing that SC2 doesn't have those (as far as I know?) and WC3 was released in 2003? | ||

I've never played before, but I think that I would like to play NE race. Could anyone link to me good places to find vods, build orders, and general strats for NE? Not so sure about build orders, but I used to learn a lot from watching audio commentaries. WCReplays is still somewhat active I think. I'd check that out. http://www.youtube.com/user/wcreplaysvideo Good luck! I hate DH and Bears  While I'm mentioning it huge shoutout to Cecil whose audios helped me a lot during my noob days :D. Pretty sure he streams SC2 now on TL, Cecil TV I believe. edit: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=118606 yep | ||

Lucifer's heavy BM harass -> wind riders + mass expansion. Sounds stupid but works wonders, you're forcing nelf to hide his wisps all over the map right off the bat which slows him down big time. 2. Suho's FS tower rush. Kills early-teching nelfs right off the bat, especially if they don't spot you building towers outside of their main on first night. As a bonus, there's this gay strat for orc vs UD: Level up FS to 3, buy invis potion and tp staff, go into UD base and rape all acos with chain lightning + wolves. Repeat. As an UD, it's just horrible to lose all your acos mid-tech to t3. | ||
