I've actually always enjoyed watching PvP's over most matchups.

i can tell that you dont have a top 100 account with any of the races on any of the realms knights and destroyers dont suck. any good hu or ud would know that. they both serve a purpose. | ||

 but they are also weak at the same time because they are only slightly better than a grunt. destroyers are pretty nice but I would never mass them. 3 at most. but what does it matter, BW is a more 'complete' game right now but many ppl play TFT because it is modern and has more attention. | ||

BW is much better than WC3, but most people shrug off WC3 for the wrong reasons: The economic and fundamental balance of the game is VERY different from SC. There are simpler BOs, less units/techs, less economy, but ALL of this is offset by the addition of heroes (in terms of strategy/army) and creeps (economic). Angel (halpmeh) once pointed out correctly that WC3 is truly just about heroes. That's what it comes down to- balancing hero vs unit dynamics per matchup. Because of the consolidation of power into a few units, there seems to be less possiblities, while at the highest levels there still remains enough innovation to keep the game from falling flat on its face. WC3 is not a crappy game JUST because there are no hard counters- units are not the focus- counters have to work together with heroes (which greatly amplify any effect). It's not bad just because of virtually non-existant economy or macro- offset by new addition of RPGish creeping/creepjacking dynamics (creeping/creepjacking is equivalent in some ways to powering/peon dropping). Nevertheless, WC3 is innovative, but at the current state, there exist some weak areas where there just isn't enough room to excercise the potential of the game... | ||

without spirit walkers human could own a 20 tauren army with polymorph (i have done it myself vs orcs that dont know how to use spirit walkers) also spirit link is a viable option  gyrocopters are weak, but they can be used in certain situations they cant be shackled so thats a plus...and they have invisibility detection so they are GREAT scouting units banshees are great.. but seldom used mainly because ud players like to go the route of hero nuking | ||
