This is kinda funny, the thread should be called "Who plays online, and who doesnt?"

Well I play online and I think that for random maps (mostly what I play) Solly is better than Hack. In randoms there are many spells available (scrolls, boxes, pyramids, etc) that Solly can make a better use of. With no magiic arties (not uncommon until late game on random) Hack is an easy prey.

But I guess this was not the topic of this tread

Well sos, as Rychen is also a random player, I leave that to the 2 of u
but on allmost every TOH-map Crag will beat Soly, mostly too the fact that Crag can destroy most off poor Soly`s troops if he get first move and have mass haste, which he has a pretty good chance off getting. The more rare thing but much more deadly is if Crag gets pendant or recanters. Only sure thing for Soly vs Crag, is if Soly has pendant himself and Crag doesnt have recanters, but that goes for pretty much any hero that have both Pendant and chain, one off the most deadly combos in Heroes, imho anyways.
And I must admit that even on them relic-race maps that is mostly played in TOH, there is still a huge difference between might-heroes and magic-heroes. And as most off the good players Ive played always seem to pick a might hero, I guess thats the way to go

I agree with you that Soly can be great on a random in the first 2 weeks, he gets u off to a great start, then u switch to your main. Thats obviously only my opinion, but the prob with Soly, is that he will get squashed by Crag I would say, 9 times out of 10. I guess you are looking to win on the map, and have a big lead going into the fight, you'll have to, because Crag is mental in those big fights

sorry i cant agree that sol is good vs. a random map, why? cause you need wells, and randoms tend to have none, so soon you might be lost, also chain doesnt win you fights in utopias for example, or vs. fast critters

And this is my opinion

Solmyr IS better than Craig Hack on randoms - (except prolly randoms XL).

Why, because of scrolls, P-Boxes with all earth spells, bla bla bla. Usually, I try to pick a magic hero on randoms cause I had some unpleasnat experiences with might heroes.

Agree with Zsa

Magic heroes are better IMO for random maps (mostly large no under 160% is what I play) because they can give you a quicker start most of the time and most often than not you find usefull spells that can (almost) win you the game - TP, DD, Fly are killers on random. What will Crag do with all earth spells from box, for example, with no earth magic and knowledge of 2? I have had many frustrating games having might heroes as main. Of course later in the game on 1 vs 1 fight might heroe MAY be better provided he has about equal troops and level, but this rarely happens. I remember a game when I had warlock vs ranger with red orb. In the first fight I got my butt kicked good. But I had some good spells from box and black orb and was able to hit 3 utopias before we met second time. Now my stats were way better and I won easily.

In this particular case Crag vs Solly I think Crag's special is way better in general. Only problem is his limited knowledge. Gundula is much better hero for randoms than Crag. Best magic heroes are of course the intelligence specialists.

Good Magics: Adela, Loynis, Intelligence

Worst Town: Castle (Yeah, even beyond Tower)

Isnt Adelas or Loynis fault, that they are native to wrong town.

Don't forget that castle is the best might faction

Except the specialities the main difference is that might heroes have more attack and defence skill, while magic - power and knowlege. It also  depends on the civilization - there are might civs. (Castle, Fortress and Stronghold), which have incrased attack and def. skills, While all others are magic factions. I think that the new towns will be: forge - might and bastion and groove - magic

Why is Castle more "might" than Dungeon?

An overlord is for sure mightier than a knight..
