Hey! I'm the maker of this game, and it's crazy to see my game being played many years after I quit. It's probably a dead game now, but I will say that a lot of the things you were criticizing about actually do have mechanics built in to address them, they're just not obvious to newer players. Because it was WC3, we had no real way of tutorializing it, so the only way to learn was if a high-level player taught you. So, when you were talking about the ending - the ending is almost 80% of the skill in the game. Normally in high level games 2v2s, one player plays on defense and the other plays on attack. The player on defense buys units (handymen) to simultaneously repair the base, and unit-block players from getting to thee base. The fact that red was dispelling your friend's AM shield was due to the fact that he was using that priest unit (which is also used defensively when players rush the nexus). Offensive players, on the other hand, make use of priests, Superior archers, and the purchaseable "cyclone" spell to remove the defender, the handymen that he's using to block (as well as building towers, of course). So the game functioned like a unit-control micro game with an emphasis on your hero as the kingpin unit. Usually defending was a bit stronger than attacking, if your opponents were any bit ready, you would not have had such a successful attack on their base. Given this, in high level play it would be incredibly rare for a game to end after one rush like that. Usually it took about 10-20~ rushes, where you'd probe for weaknesses in your opponent's defenses, attack their resources, and time a big rush at the nexus. Anyway, thanks for playing my game! I am very glad you enjoyed it, and seemed to comment very favorably on the improvements we made.

The strategies I've used was getting a few towers built up front and upgrading them to buy us time to advance into their territory. then there were the overpowered invisible archers that attack only heroes.

you can keybind 12 handy men and surround incoming enemy heros with them to stop them being able to do dmg to base, its called handy block, also when you build bank on the base its stops handymen from being able to repair base as fast so you should always build it on line, another advnatage to building it on line is you can make a line of defense that heroes cant pass without destroying at least one of them
@phkit4204 жыл бұрын
oh and always have handy men patrolling too ( at base ) especially when you have a full line of defense
@phkit4204 жыл бұрын
last thing, you can use priests to dispell an ams and then use cyclone to give your handymen time to repair your base between attacks
