Warcraft 3 - What's the Best Race?
Although I have been playing Warcraft 3 for a while. I have never gone through all of the campaigns. I also suck really bad too. But here's the question. What do you think is the best race and why? I bet Gorman will be the first to post here.

Yes Gorman will! At least he's tryin to. Overall....I wouldn't say there IS a best race. They're all pretty equal. It really depends on which race you're good with and what your opponent uses.
Oh, I'll make a bet that RealDeal posts here too...probably with an insult directed towards me as usual

I think the undead are the best, but that's just me.

The new playable the Merc Alliance is so cool, it's by far my favorite of the 3 new races.

Simple. Undead. The Undead Scourge is the best, but if dwarves weren't stuck with humans, they'd get first prize.

night elves has good heroes like keeper of the grove if you know how to use it  . And can use it well.
And they have moon wells that can be placed near on the battlefield to heal your warriors
And demonhunter is good once he gets metamorphis.
I like them best.

Ofcourse i'll post here, i'm a fan for crying out loud.
We are currently in patch 1.16. Orc is clearly the best, it CAN'T be debated. It's just the way things are.
I haven't got a clue on patch 1.17 yet, sorry to say so.. But it's the truth.
If anyone STILL wants to debate this, even though i have given the Words of The Wise( ) Then state it in the Guild Of Debaters thread, and i'll gladly discuss patch 1.16's best race with anyone who would want to discuss the matter.
If you wan't to discuss this, have reasons. Good reasons, and plenty of them.

Guild of Debaters? Come on, can't you liven up this forum by keeping it here? What's the point of even having this forum if no one is willing to actually get down and dirty and discuss strategy?

Because i want this done the right way. Anyone who is crazy enough to actually discuss this with me, probably hasn't got the wits for it, and if we move it there it can be done fast. Here the person will keep on defending their side, with no reasons what so ever, and i'm sorry that i haven't got the time for that.
But, if someone actually have wits + reasons, i'll gladly discuss it here, without any insults what so ever. I just don't want a halfassed mindless idiot who happens to have seen a pro replay or has found something to abuse, who happens to think that, that perticular race is overpowered, or just the best. Example: People just frequently mentioned UD as the best race, and oh my god people are wrong. Everything that undead has can be countered every easily(althought! They have some units that fit teamgames pretty well, but that is still no reason for calling it the best race. Yeah undead has some great heroes, but so has everyone else.

There's no reason to argue over how this should be discussed. Even if it would be done in a Guild debate, the thread's subject would mean it goes to "ther Games Exist Too and not Other Side.

The Undead(Scourge/Frozen Throne)
My favorite race is without a doubt the undead. I'll never get tired of their kewl units and heros.
Heros
Deathknight: Fastest hero in the game(very kewl)
Lich: dude he just looks kewl(abilities are kewl too but I love the way he looks)
Crypt Lord: Giant undead ancient beetle(so sweet I feel like I'm playing an insectacon from the old transformers!)
Dread Lord: he looks tight(hella sweet demon fanatic)
special note: there are two other undead heros that can only be bought from the Tavern.
Tavern undead Hero#1--> Pit Lord: He's always saying, "FOOLISH MORTAL!" Haha I love this guy. He reminds me of the Balors from Baldur's Gate.(He can even curse units and turn them into lesser demons!)
Tavern undead Hero#2--> Dark Ranger(Undead Siren): She is always walking around saying she's "damned" and all that. She is just like the live sirens from Baldur's Gate except she's dead and her eyes glow bright red! That's evil!(She can charm almost any opponent units and suck the life from them!)
Units
1. Crypt Fiend: spiders are so kewl(they have web and can burrow underground!)
2. Ghoul: reminds me of Baldurs Gate but these things move way faster!(They eat dead bodies to heal themselves! Eeeeewww)
3. Gargoyle: just like the disney cartoon!(statues and all!)
4. Necromancers: this is why I like the undead(these guys make it all worth playing).....Can you say....Legions!
5. Banshees: D&D type monsters and they sound kewl too!(they possess the souls of other units!)
6. Abomination: LoL so kewl! These guys are like the butcher from diablo#1!(Ok maybe they're a bit more mangled but they both have meat cleavers and smell really bad!)
7. Meat Wagon: LoL only the undead could have a catapult siege weapon that collects all the slain bodies!(Eeewwww but kewl!)
8. Shade: the kewlest scout there is(I love this unit!)
9. Frost Wyrms: These things are awesome!(They look great and remind me of ghost dragons from Heroes3!)
10. Obsidian statues: Whoa they have area affect healing and mana regeneration!(That's not fair!)
11. Destroyers: Two words for spellcasters(Run away)
12. Acolyte: LoL these undead zealots are always saying how they wanna die so just sacrifice them into shades! (Great fun!)

okey i will post.. althou i havent played online (not single player either just local multiplayer)
the thing is im not current with the new patches.....
as far as i see it Orc is a newbie race...Night elves.. no comment but they are too stuck for me.....
Human are good warriors very deadly if u know how to use them..
but my fav .. as here are the undead... no not about how they look..
oki cryptfriends are a formidable unit as long as u know how to use it... the burrow ability is incredible... tell me how many orc units can see inbvisible units ? one fast group of crypt fiends burrowed into yer base is deadly.... when u leave hatch em up destroy ur peasentry ... just my point of view.. maybe im wrong......

What orcish units that can detect invis you ask?
Theres The farseers farsight abil.
Heard of a SHOP? You can buy dust of apperence. Or do as i do, buy a gem of seeing for your hero. Now that doesn't work anymore, now does it?
Newbie race? I'm glad that you admitted your a newb, then i won't have to bash you.
This is what i'm talking about, someone whos trying to say something without actually knowing anything about the real game.

Realdeal, ever tried to lower your arrogance ? It helps people to think you're a nice and interesting person to talk with...
And you forgot Troll Witch Doctor with Sentry Ward.
For me the best race is Naga/Blood elf conglameration...
Althought I do not play game online, or for the best records. I play it for fun...

Now, really, Deal!
I have never played Warcraft 3, just like I never played HoMM4, and still I sometmes read a strategy thread about one of those two games on HC. Dunno why.
And I really don't like the way you treat people who simply disagree. It's like calling someone a moron because their favorite color is yellow.

YELLOW!? NOW I'VE NEVER!!..
Lichking, you didn't tell other people that when i didn't know much about heroes? You just said "they know better, piss off n00b!" or something like that.
And i rarely go Witch docters, wards are to easy to counter, but against n00bs they rock.
Have you noticed how EVERYONE is cheering for UD? It's because that UD has a few things that can be abused greatly.
The next guy in here, who has a statement on his or her favourite race, give reasons, strats.. Everything, unless you like orc, then i agree (btw my favourite race is night elves.. Orc is just the best race)
