But vs air elf army, mass bat the chims + snipe/purge the injured ones with imbalanced BM critting. Elf doesn't rely as much on their hero abilities either compared to other races. Plus a few dryads stop silence easily, or you can outsilence with your own DR, lol.
Oh ya of course in early game rushing out an orc before they are established will just kill them, especially before their heroes are too high and UD is very strong mid-game before an orc upgrades to 3/3 and has a stable economy, I was mostly referring to end-game tactics.
P.S. That map Seski really sucks for orc, such narrow passages, but you played extremely well regardless, I got a good ass beating.
And humstar, this is 100% true vs human, IMO DR dominates that matchup. BM is better vs elf (chim masser). Orc v Orc Mirror is questionable but I lean towards DR unless the enemy BM has insane items and knows how to snipe properly. But vs UD I always get mixed results on that question so I was just curious.
Incorporate gargs into your army, force the orc to invest in bats, have them be 3/3 and use prot scroll and good timing of stone form. Always use sleep on TC, spam that shit, keep a mana potion on DL and never let him wake up. Stomp = You are dead. Inspect items of all heroes before battle, if TC is low HP/level and has no invul, focus him, he dies fast. Always use shades, kill all wards, an orc who can jump you will almost always win battles. Focus on caster as best you can and use devour often, an orc not buffed will be 50% less effective.
It will still be an uphill battle but these are some good pointers to help you deal with it. I mostly see Maga pulling this off very effectively against me. Also, don't hit n run an orc, you will set yourself up for many lost units thanks to hex and purge orb. If you losing a battle, just TP, do NOT run away.
Now for you UD players I wonder - do you fear DR more or BM?
I just can't guarantee them unless you guys can handle ~12 hour notice on a free weeknight to be honest, and it would be mean 2 AM+ for the Russians anyways.
That proposed time should be ok, but I won't know for certain until the date approaches, probably Wed the 16th at the latest
