"and you really cant say ANYTHING about taurens...spellcasters own them...and hard...your never going to have more taurens then your foe has dott"
"First off yummz i SAID TAUREN ARE A BAD CHOOSE vs spellcasters as a general statement did i say anything about you saying that ...no? "
Funny how you conradict yourself, so eager to flame doesn't take the time to read, good job.
"Have you seen shamans cast bloodlust? it puts them OUT of the fight it takes them a relatively long time to cast it...and while the ONLY thing you have on the ground are shamans and witch doctors and the shamans are constantly bloodlusting and rebloodlusting everything the huntresses have already killed them..then your dott finish off the wyverns....and its nice that you keep repeating the effects of bloodlust lol..."
Ok let me put this to you simply, a GOOD orc player will go mass shamans, 3 hero to start and will throw in wyverns/1-2kodo/and witchdoctors soon after. Now this player will have 60-70pop in shaman that means they will should have:
15peons x15
3 heros x15
12shaman x24
1-2 wyvern x8
1 kodo x4
2 doctors x4
total 70
That is 70pop, typically I get a expo and go to around 80-85 pop by increasing the amount of wyverns right before a major battle. Now most ne will attempt to remove the heros from battle first, good move considering the blademaster with bloodlust can absolutely rape dryads if you don't remove him quickly. Now 12 shaman casting bloodlust and 2 doctors throwing down wards will NOT BE OUT OF THE BATTLE for very long whatever you believe. Also the Shaman do 19dmg average +4dmg from the kodo not even including increased speed from Tauren Chieftan. Your dryads do 22dmg avg before poison, so not only do my shaman do better base dmg than your dryads And your hunts first attack they attack 40-70%(depending on TC level) faster. Yes you will get a couple seconds before the battle to attack my shaman while they rebloodlust but it will NOT be a long time and most likely you will be using the time to micro on my heros. There is a good chance you will get 1 before the battle is done, especially if you went demonhunter first. That is where healing potions become your best friend, but that is a different discussion. My point is that your belief that dryads instant cast abolish (which is not instant, they have to raise their spear in the air, so prolly about 1sec cast with no cooldown) will not keep 12 shaman SO BUSY they are not in the battle. Shaman raise into the air, spread their arms and cast bloodlust, this take approx. 3sec max. that gives your dryads a 2sec advantage, which considering they can only keep up with the shaman 2x before they out of mana will not be sufficient for you to win this battle.
And I keep repeating the effects of bloodlust because apparently you do not seem to understand them they are very powerful, 40%attack and 25% speed in unbelievable for a caster that can do 23dmg for 150gold and has 410hp. Say what you will but that is way too beasty in my mind.
This is most likely my last post on this subject take it however you want, I expect a reply with you telling me again how dryads are instant casters and how bloodlust take so long to cast that shaman have no chance, I have not even brought up the range issue, alot of the time your dryads will not even be within range to dispel all my shaman...
