The Strategies

What do you do versus a good elf player on a map that supports him a lot say for example a Terenas Stand?
Well it usually depends on tavern build or not, but I usually creep 4 militia on the laboratory for level 2, then if he doing tavern ill take expand on the weaker guarded gold mines. If he is DH I like to wait until tier 2 and expand with naga 2nd. Both strats I use sorc priest breaker + mortars. Also it is important to make sure he does not get an expansion himself, I like using the sappers a lot on this map to take out moon wells or expansions, they are very effective.

In your experience what has been the most unique strategy you've seen ever?
I remember some elf going mass ballistas with the zeppelins on TM, it was very annoying to play against him hiding in trees and mass towers @ his base... but I guess I shouldnt talk about mass towers since I'm human. I was very good with tier 3 vs tier 3 because I have good staff micro but the game is evolving.

How do you handle a human opponent?
Lately I've been struggling a lot in this matchup, at the moment I am playing normal stuff with Panda 2nd. I am trying very hard to get level 3 Archmage before I go harass him but it is hard on same maps. At tier 2 getting panda and pushing if he is tier 3 I will go tier 3 as well if he stay tier 2 I like to go expand and just out produce him. But I really do not like mass breaker vs mass breaker.

When playing against Undead what are your aims in a match?
Well vs Undead I'm trying to get level 3 and a fast expansion up with mercs as support. If I can do this successfully I like going tier 3 with 2 barracks 2 workshop for mass knight+gyro or mass tank+knight if he has an expansion. The 3 human heroes are a very nice combination and I like to get them to level 3 to optimize their potential versus Undead. It is important to have enough towers versus Undead and to also make sure they do not get an expansion, I try to stay below 50 population for longer if they get an expansion, that way I can out mass them.

How do you handle a strong Orc opponent?
Orc is tough because grunts are very strong early game so im trying to avoid fighting with him early on if all possible and just creeping. Once tier 2 If he is FS, I'll go BM and try to get 4 sorcs 4 priest and heal scrolls with push and stay under 50 food, this usually kills him if not I mass up again and go for another push... If he is Blade Master, I like MK better. I only get 2 sorc & 2 priest then mass breaker and focusing his heroes all fight until they run away.

How did you select the Human alliance?
Well my ROC box had the Human guy on the front so I decided I'll stick with them and haven't really changed since.

What is the most unique strategy you've ever used?
I remember seeing ToD do dark ranger first with riflemen and Panda 2nd vs orc I tried it and I liked it but i didn't really use that much but it was a lot of fun.
