@@Olagfigh Is it random? I thought it doubled both your normal and piercing damage. Since Ogres have, iirc, 8 normal and 8 piercing damage, and have 8 armour which only reduces normal damage, it meant ogres would do 4-8 damage against other ogres/knights, but when that's doubled to 16/16, still with only 8 normal damage reduced, they are now doing 12-24 damage, effectively triple damage even though the spell on paper is only supposed to double it. I believe this was unintended, resulting in bloodlust being by far the most broken spell in the game, ridiculously more powerful than the paladin's healing ability which only recovered 1 hp per 6 mana iirc, meaning even a full 255 mana paladin can't even fully heal their 90 hp, while a bloodlusted ogre goes from needing on average 15 hits to kill an equal knight/ogre to just 5. Or 9, if a full mana perfectly timed heal goes off. Meanwhile paladin still needs 15 hits to kill that ogre. IOW even if you trained openAI to play War2 perfectly with infinite APM and start every fight with full mana, Paladins would still get massacred by any decent player just using bloodlust on their ogres before a fight. RIP humans.

On fastest game speed orcs were borderline unbeatable due to those ogre mages. On slow or normal speed though humans can react with mages and slow spell. On fastest a human player is forced to try to draw out bloodlusts to waste mana and run..or kill the orc player before they can get to ogre magi.

Wow, people still discussing the mechanics of WC2.... Combat mechanic is not explained correct on the internet. You have basic and piercing damage. Basic can be reduced by the enemies armor, even to 0. The left over is added to the piercing and divided by 2. Rounded upwards. This is the minimum damage. Double this for the maximum damage. The game takes a random number in between with a lot of numbers behind the decimal. Either way, it is rounded again for the actual damage in 1 hit. This means that the minimal AND maximum damage happens 0.5 times. While the rest weights 1. The average damage is 1.5 times that of the rounded minimal damage. Example: Grunt does 6 basic and 3 piercing damage according to the game. Against a knight with 4 armor, this gives 2+3=5 5/2=2.5, rounded upwards gives 3. The damage goes from 3 to 6. The die that you roll actually looks like: 344556. On average, this grunt does 4.5 damage against a knight. And needs 20 hits. Troll does 6 piercing and 3 basic. And results in the exact same damage against the knight. Upgrades?? Melee gets +2 basic damage per upgrade. Ranged gets +1 piercing damage per upgrade. The archer also can get another +3 piercing damage. Bloodlust doubles all damages. Then you still need to subtract armor. Haste increases movement speed to 13. Haste only increases the attack speed for the dragon/gryphon. And chopping wood.

I used to do Kali tournaments in War2. There was a competitive scene way back in the day, I'm glad to see one still exists!! I've always favored Warcraft RTS over Starcraft...but that's because I'm not as good at the macro game. Early SC2 was a blast for me because I was just rushing nonstop microing the cheese units like reapers, void rays, roaches etc. as random. In the Warcraft RTS the macro is a lot smaller, less workers less bases.

So what happened was that indeed the first player lost most ogre fight exchanges, and the other player got an ogre deathball up. But as you might've noticed, the first player repeatedly did hefty eco damage while the other barely touched the first's income. So the moment the first player managed to kill the deathball, it was over. He was incredibly ahead in income.

I have the firm believe that ideas that sounded good but turned out to be horrible (like tasteless using sappers to try to kill goldmines) teach you more about the game then things that worked out. A success just confirms what you already knew, but a horrible idea can teach you a better understanding of why some ideas won´t work and a deeper understanding of the units you used and failed with and how not to use them and why.

Used to use Kali95 back in the day to play WC2 since it was an IPX and not TCP/IP game. Games back then were very competitive. Lots of custom & well balanced maps (map editor). Farms we’re generally used as walls. One of the Kali95 user created maps had two chunks of land, separated by water, with a narrow causeway joining them. Seemed to be a very popular map.

While orcs are the stronger of two races competitively humans aren't so far behind that they're unplayable, they tend to focus more on abusing mages since paladins can't really stand toe to toe with bloodlusted ogres directly. u8 has a lot of replays on his channel where he plays humans and has success with them in ladder matches so it can be pretty entertaining just to see some asymmetrical gameplay going on if you want to show more Warcraft 2 content.

At the top level, Humans are unplayable if you actually want to win. They don't have Lust, and the Pali heal spell doesn't heal enough. Their cats have a big delay on their shot and can even misfire. The only benefit of playing Humans is that Blizzard does slightly more damage than DnD. That's literally it. If you go watch u8's stream, he will only play Orc when he's playing against people that are about as good as he is. He just plays random for fun.

@@itranscendencei7964 the issue is playing it on fastest speed. With slower game speed humans can win vs orcs using mages and slow. But you aren't gonna be able to cast slow on all the ogre mages in time on fastest game speed..it's part of why they introduced autocast in Warcraft3 and slowed down the gameplay on fastest. A big part of fastest being popular for War2 was that whole starting with 1 worker thing. That was also fixed by the time SC1 came around let alone War3. Ideally you kill the orc player with a rush as humans before they can get ogre mages out but against an equally skilled opponent that's probably not gonna happen..especially on a huge map like GoW.

@@Ziegfried82 People don't play on Fastest speed unless they play chop. The game in this video was played on Even Faster, which is the next step down. That's the slowest speed anyone would ever play on, and Humans are not going to win against someone who knows what they are doing and playing Orc. Again, if you go actually watch the streams of top level players, not a single one of them plays Humans when they are actually trying. Even if you do rush them, the Orc player can easily hold with cats because Human cats have a delay with their shots. People only really play Humans when they are just playing for fun. As far as War3, I couldn't care less about that game. They had it right with War2, and then completely ruined it.

Warcraft 2 came out when I was in middle school. I started out playing war craft 1 competitively with a friend from school over our modem connections. When wc2 came out, there was still no battle net, but I talked my mom into getting something called Kali for me. It was $10/month. You could connect to it, and it was a chatroom where you could connect with people all over and play wc2 over the internet. Low resources was what "good" people played on. I still remember the build order: farm, farm, farm, barracks, farm, Smith, farm, barracks. Then you sent your grunts out to kick the other guys ass. Smith upgrades were super fast. They'd finish in close to the same amount of time it took to make a grunt, so you had to get those upgrades going. Expanding, especially more than once, was some super advanced stuff. Workers are just so vulnerable in that game. You can stick like 30 peons in a goldmine, and they'll all mine efficiently, but one catapult shot, death and decay, or even a bloodlusted ogre near your gold mine, and you'd be screwed in a couple seconds.

The micro is super difficult and punishing. It's truly a game for gamers.. There's a great "custom gamemode", where everyone starts with one peon like normal, but everyone is trapped by trees.

Hi Tasteless! I'm happy to see War2 videos! I was heavily into War2BNE until everyone jumped ship (naturally) when War3 came out. A couple of things: -I THINK food cap is 200 but it takes a long while to get there! -Blood Lust is OP on the fastest and 2nd fastest game speeds I personally like going Random in any RTS and actually like Humans and their spells a little bit better (IE: Heal and Blizzard) but if you're not Orc on those speeds then you're at a disadvantage! That didn't stop me from trying though! Hell, I even got called a hacker 'cause I got pretty good at healing with my Paladins! I also, WON against a hacker (Orc vs. Orc) and I'll never forget that! Level 1 DK casting Death and Decay with just a Great Hall? C'mon man... Ladder and Iron Man Ladder speeds slowed it down to make it fair and that's where they shined! I would LOVE to see WarCraft 2 get a remaster but no one else talks about it except me it seems haha. I don't know how to fix the Blood Lust vs. Heal problem but it definitely needs to be addressed. Maybe a splash heal? I donno. Auto-casting would just be lazy and dumb and too close to War3.

I'll be honest I've never even opened this game or owned it so this was brand new and interesting, thanks! I had no idea what this even looked like. It would have come right before my introduction to video games and RTS which was Starcraft 64 😅. Loved it and bought it on PC. I was 10. I'm not sure if this is a rabbit hole I want to go down but if Tasteless tries it I will!

There are many games that the competitive goes strong ( red alert 2, lord of rings, Cossack 2, planetary annihilation ( and kingdoms too! ) despite the main producer either abandoned or died. I just hope some games could get similar love and passion, there alot of still great Rts that could revived with our current level of rts understanding.

@@hansonlee5847 ogre mage tech meant 2 options as humans: either you rush hard or you gotta do mage tech with slow. On fastest game speed it's impossible to micro well enough to slow the ogre mages in time...meaning once bloodlust is ready on fastest the human player is dead.

Hey, that's neat. War2ru is a great little server and I appreciate all the work they'd put into it. Sadly, unless you're in EU your ping will be too high to be competitive whatsoever. ** One thing I never see ANYONE mention is AOL Engage. Real OGs remember the WarCraft 2 forums on there. I remember when the Warchief of Splintered Orcs Clan (SoC) first started the clan and he was something like 15 years old. God damn time flies.
