The Best Hero Class of HoMM series

Hey people,
in this competition, we will cover one of the most crucial elements of our beloved game series. The hero classes. All the classes from all the 5 games wille show up and try to proove their power.

As in the first round of the "The best faction of HoMM series"-competition, we will first have some groups with, hopefully similar, classes. We have Five groups of 7 classes and 2 groups of 6 classes. From each group, the 2 best groups will go on. Also, if we have only clear victories, the 2 best 3rd places will again continue. A vote works by giving three factions (per group!) in the order whcih you like best. So for example a vote for group 1 could be Knight H2, Cleric H3, Knight H5. Then the H2 Knight would get 3, the Cleric 2, and the Knight 1 point for the judgement of this round.

Note: I did NOT take the advanced classes of H4 in, not to burst the competition...

Here are the groups
Round 1:

Group 1:
Knight H1
Knight H2
Cleric H3
Knight H3
Knight H4
Priest H4

Group 2
1. Barbarian H5
2. Barbarian H3
3. Beastmaster H3

Though mostly, not only. F.e. In H4 the classes were defined by their basic skill. And, msot important, the AMBIENCE of the classes is very important, too, imo. Look, for example at the barbarians in their strange "**** my ***" pose...what a bad styling

Actually that was the decisive factor for choosing the rest of them.

Here is my vote:

Group 1:
Knight H5
Cleric H3
Priest H4

Priest won against H3 Knight VERY close!

Group 2:
Barbarian H2
Barbarian H3
Battle Mage H3

Group 3:
Sorceress H2
Druid H3
Ranger H3

Don't like the H5 ranger, archer and H4 druid weren't SO far away from H3 ranger, though...but far enough^^

Group 4:
Wizard H2
Wizard H3
Alchemist H3

Kinda tough choice... I dislike the H5 wizard look, and, for HoMM, the whole desert styl eis not so much my taste...teh mage of H4 is kinda cool, but looks a bit...ridiculous?! I like the ideas of elementalist/planeswalker, somehow...

Group 5:
Thief H4
Lord H4
Runemage H5

The hardest group by far! Because here we find some innovation in the classes...Though a nice idea, and a great racial, demon lord I didn't find too great, so it#s narrowly out. Also took out heretic and witch, cause the others are more unique in the series. I like rthe concepts of Lord and Thief, bringing other things into the game than army leading. Runemage as dwarven hero was just creative...it was VERY narrow between them and the Demon Lord, though!!!

Group 6:
Warlock H3
Warlock H2
Warlock H5

Was close between Warlock H5, H2 and Overlord...others rather clear...

Group 7:
Necromancer H3
Death Knight H3
Necromancer H5

Necromancer H3 wins quite clear. Had, though, problems with Necromancer from H4&5 and the Death Knight. Decided, though, to cast the H4 necromancer out. I kind of liked the walking skeleton, though



!!!!! also, I announce 48 hours deadline !!!!!

Okay. The deadline's long gone...we had suprisingly few votes here...I suppose it was because of Silvester and such...

So, we have winners for some groups, but others have been quite indifferent:

Group 1:
Knight H5 11
Cleric H3 8

one of the clearest groups we had.


Group 2:
Barbarian H3 8
Beastmaster H3 6
Barbarian H5 6
Barbarian H2 6

A sure winner, but the 2nd place is really split!


Group 3:
Druid H3 9
Sorceress H2 9



2 equal winners.


Group 4:
Wizard H5 10
Wizard H3 9


Group 5:
Thief H4 6
Runemage H5 6

Group 6:
Warlock H3 6
Warlock H2 5
Sorceror H4 5

Group 7:
Necromancer H5 12
Necromancer H3 9

Best third places:
Ranger H5 7
Death Knight H3 6
Alchemist H3 6



Seeing all that, we still have to do some voting.

Round 1.5

We need to find:

-second place for group 2
-second place for group 6
-the second best third place

Just vote who shall continue, this time.

2nd place group 2:
Beastmaster H3
Barbarian H5
Barbarian H2

2nd place group 6:
Warlock H2
Sorceror H4

2nd best third place:
Death Knight H3 6
Alchemist H3 6

Wah, I'm late.

Here are the winners of round 1.5:

2nd place group 2:
Barbarian H5 - 3 votes

2nd place group 6:
Warlock H2 - 3 votes

2nd best third place:
Both contestants here got the same number of votes - 3 - again. So I decided to take both on, though it messes the system up a bit. But one should be flexibel and they seem to be equally liked^^

Death Knight H3 3
Alchemist H3  3

So, now, we proceed to round 2.
Here, we have 3 groups with 4, and one group with 5 contestants, all randomly mixed. But like in the other game, noone shall be grouped with one they were grouped with before.

For voting, please choose the 2 best of a group. The best will get 5, the 2nd 3 points. The overall best of a group will continue. Deadline is 48 hours.

Group 1:
Barbarian H3
Death Knight H3
Druid H3
Wizard H3

Group 2:
Alchemist H3
Barbarian H5
Thief H4
Warlock H2

Group 3:
Cleric H3
Necromancer H3
Runemage H5
Sorceress H2
Wizard H5


Group 4:
Knight H5
Necromancer H5
Ranger H5
Warlock H3

Have fun!
