dont worry the whole time he is doing math he is comparing the value of one point and that is totally moot becuase rain of fire is terrible and the actual math that mattters is the reduced damage not the value of the skillpoint
@krzysztofputerko1943Ай бұрын
@@user-vm7bx1bq4s the actual math that matter is the one of the value of the skillpoint actually. Let's say you are playing an Archmage and uou just hit level 4, you already have lvl 2 water elemental and lvl 1 brilliance aura. at level 4 you can only choose between lvl 2 brilliance aura or lvl 1 blizzard. You can't compare the whole value of lvl 2 aura to the value provided by lvl 1 blizzard, because even if you picked blizzard, you still have your lvl 1 aura value. That's why you only compare wether an added lvl 2 value to brilliance aura is better than blizzard or not. not the whole ability. And the same goes for Pit lord, you have lvl 2 cleave and lvl 1 howl, you hit lvl 4 and you need to calculate wether you will get more value from having lvl 1 rain of fire and lvl 1 howl, or just lvl 2 howl. That's why you count relative values and not the avsolute ones in RTS games
@user-vm7bx1bq4sАй бұрын
@@krzysztofputerko1943 rain of fire is a zero skill so NO its exactly like I said. there is no other way to put a fourth skill point except to throw it in the garbage and it wouldnt matter how efficient the gain of level 2 is compared to one becuase it is leagues above the other skill and is actually usefull. the fact u use a other hero as a example proves u cant fking read

Bloodmage next - lots of interesting discussion points around Banish - how to use it to creep, using it on enemy dps hero, using it on your own vulnerable hero, using it as part of a nuke vs UD etc all with 0 cd. Also the mana siphon has lots of uses, Phoenix is one of the coolest ults in the game, and Flamestrike is a firm favourite for the 4v4 worker destruction cheese. Also, he's cool as fuck and has a great BAT.

You know I was thinking to myself. Why does this scratch a particular itch? What have I been missing that these kinds of things fill? And then it hit me. This feeling is what I used to get from reading game manuals. When I was a kid. I had tons of console games from the '90s and I used to always get in a really hot bath with a stack of maybe 15 or 16 game manuals or guides and I would just drink coke and go through all the manuals page by page. This is great.

I have had this idea that hero-applied debuffs such as Howl of Terror should be undispellable (like Acid Bomb and Thunder Clap). Imagine Pit Lord third taken for a support role. Negating the entire spell with dispels feels so cheap, and it's not summons which would do need counterplay. - Adûnâi

interesting to read the turn rate guide, shows once again how polished this engine is. Maybe some of the confusion comes there being two turn rates, an actual and a visual, like you notice sometimes how a unit hits attacks before it actually turned all the way towards its target. The guide talks about the visual in equally important terms, though for our purposes actual turn rate is what matters.

"Lacks fienesse", is somewhat lore accurate, the pit Lord being a reckless destroyer and all. But at the same time, he does posses SOME cunning, such as spilling his blood into the fountain for the orcs to drink and fall under his influence. However, Mannaroth needed Tichondrius for that to happen.

Plus ... You can counter Pit Lord by delaying your upgrades. :) The more attack you have, the more powerful Howl of Terror is. The more armor you have, the more is ignored by Cleave, Rain of Fire and Doom. I'd say the best counter to him as a race is Night Elves. They rarely engage in melee except with tanky units and are also great at kiting. All the other races can counter him, but are forced to play certain strats like having casters or high pop melee units or mass range. This means overall, Pit Lord and almost all casters go really well together. He can make unusual units stand out like Wyverns whete he reduces enemy damage, they prevent enemy from kiting the Pit Lord while kiting themselves.

As a long-time Azgalor-first enjoyer, it's good to see that you're finally highlighting the only true S-tier hero in the game. In all seriousness, I think the pit lord is among the best heroes for low elo play because he's incredibly tanky, which protects you from your own bad micro, and cleave absolutely wrecks a poorly-microed opposing army.

I kinda feel like a trick that you didn't mention is focus firing an enemy thats in an advantageous position alongside casting doom and basically insta spawning a unit with warstomp. With good target selection and timing you can shift the entire battle landscape with a surprise doom guard. Obviously this can be countered with fast reaction healing/zepplins, but if you have like a lich or something and have enough dps to 1 shot an enemy unit it can be very powerful.

Imagine turning like closing a window (I'm using a window as an example to illustrate the point and also to showcase there is a limit to this value, you cannot close a window beyond the frame and also you cannot smash it shut in this scenario). Your turn rate is the vertical height of your window and you close it from top to bottom. A smaller window gets closed relatively faster than a bigger window if we use the same speed everytime we close one. That's it. I guess these rules were designed to avoid having models doing an instant 180 degree rotation and to make them feel "grounded" according to their size/weight
