if it was up to me, this would be the best lineup:
Core
1. Faun / Satyr male - low-ranged poisoner. Plays flute to confuse enemy creatures.
2. Nymph / Dryad female - tree-looking woman. Supports units especially treants.
3. Pixie / Sprite female - weak melee damager, decent magical damager and flyer
Elite
4. Hunter / Longbow male - strong range unit with double damage.
5. Blade Dancer / Wind Dancer male - can damage multiple units and cannot be retaliated.
6. Druid / Elder Druid male - magical damager and support
Champion
7. Treant / Ancient Treant it - heavy melee tank
8. Green Dragon / Emerald Dragon it - powerful attacker with decent HP and has can damage multiple neighboring creatures (including friendly).

I like the idea in the first post - Treants and Phoenixes as the champion units is the right way to go.

Sorry, this is worse than all of the 3 offered lineups, you just toned down the racial units in favor of animals, that's all. Unicorn & Doe together is redundant and Dragons are missing.

That's a really great lineup. Personalyl I still don't like the idea of Treants in Champion tier, but I could live with it.

Some comments:
-Not flying dragons? I don't wont them at all.
-Elves as a champions? There are the Sylvasn's deer cavalry
(Human can. Why I can't be?)
-Unicorns as a core unit? Yes, big creature for the Hunters protection from melee and magic attacks.
-Dryads - fast flyers for the enemy range attackers blocking.
-Treant as elite unit with high health point for blocking of enemy key stacks with healing support by dryads.
-Blade Dancers - I wont female

Core
Sprite > Dryad
I actually like the idea of merging the Sprite and the Dryad back into one unit, which retains the Sprites general abilities but the Dryads synergy with Treant. It also makes good sense with how the Sprite looks on the picture (and the Dryad image we've seen looks more like a water nymph than a forest spirit imo.).
My suggestion would therefore be:
Core:
Sprite > Dryad
Emerald Warrior > Emerald Knight
Hunter > Master Hunter
Elite:
Druid > Elder Druid
Silver Unicorn > Golden Unicorn
Treant > Ancient Treant
Champion:
Green Dragon > Emerald Dragon
Phoenix > Greater Phoenix
This line-up would be the one that retains the best balance between classical units (Hunter, Druid, Unicorn, Treant) and new units (Emerald Warrior, Dragon) and also takes different unit synergies and relationships into consideration (Dryad/Treant synergy, two radically different champions).

so much unnecesarry love about animal-creatures.
a horse and a deer.
and yet they are somehow very important? i cant understand you guys. im so glad that there is an option excludes BOTH unicorn and deer, i dont want animals cute animals as army in sylvan, and i seee no reason-not a single one to want this. nostalgia? come on dont get stuck with the 90's..
This can shock people but here it comes: H3 was not perfect!!!
unicorns was ridicilious back then, and still it is. and btw, in H3 ranged units are OP as hell.
Fix your minds about nostalgia and keep in mind that just because it is related to "nature" doesnt mean its line-up should be like a cute zoo that you would like to visit when you get bored.
seriously, its so close to see killer-rabbit of monthy phyton as a unit suggestion. you guys need to stop.

Yes, we're nostalgic for those 90's kawaii Sylvan deer units.

It compares favorably against most of the other games.

@galaad
what did i do to offend you? dont get offended please i have no bad intentions. i share my point of view which i think, is found valuable by developers. balance has no unicorn and deers. im pretty sure im not alone what i think...
@avirosb
im not sure you are beign sarcastic abaout kawaii stuff.. but i ll answer anyway. a little example from LoTR: you ride deer, but you dont say to it "go and crush your foes" same goes for unicorn, i like and i understand them as mounts, just like we did seen in H5 and the hobbit movie. but i think without a rider, unicorns or deers makes no sense.

Yeah, remember how cute they were? Almost as cute as puppies in 90's Haven  Anyway, unicorns are iconic to Sylvan. 'Nuff said
