I would vote for Sanctuary if they remove the boring lady spirits in the lineup and replace them with some new creature or even a naga.
If it's between Dungeon and Inferno then I would go for Dungeon but Hydra has to return, maybe as a champ even.
Inferno was present in every game and I was never a fan of it's play style or overly fiery theme.

And, also, aren't you people tired of Inferno being the evil ones in every HMM game? No offense to anybody, that's my humble opinion
This has been answered before. The 'evil ones' in H7 is Haven (stag duchy)
but still, we need an evil faction(yeah stag duchy and so i know but as a design feel we still need an "evil")
And why would we need an evil faction? While it's boring to have the story going around Haven Empire again, I'm happy it's not the 'Good vs Evil' that gets so repetitive.
Not to mention we don't need an evil faction to have a common enemy. A well executed evil character leading some faction can do the trick (remember Sandro, Kilgor, etc...?)

We don't. A faction is only as evil as the Hero that is leading it.
HOWEVER we DO need evil creatures.
How frigging boring will the game be if all of the enemies you can fight will be holy/blessed/chosen/annointed of [NAMEOFGODHERE].
Necropolis vs 3 good and 2 neutral factions is not gonna cut it.
Either Dungeon has to be really evil, and I mean REALLY evil -I mean Blood to the Blood God levels of evil with barely controllable beast as every second unit- OR we need Inferno.

IMO what we need is more Factions fighting for power and territory, no just "every one vs evil faction"
And make characters gain more importance in the story of course. Dragon Gods can have influence, but they shouldn't be the only ones deciding the fate of the world.

Surely you meant Blood for the Blood god?  Inferno is already like demons from warhammer 40k Xd
Besides, the uncontrollable rage is as well, the Orc faction

Current Infero units are winps compared to Warhammer Fantasy/WH40k. And don't even compare Orcs to them. Im hugely dissapointed in how the Orc faction has been developed.

I loved H5 Orcs. I played H6 only briefly so I have no idea abou their campaign, and most of the units were so-so design wise.
Might elaborate a bit why you don't like them?

It's not that I don't like them in perculiar...It's rather that all the factions can only occupy the Holy to the (bloody)Neutral on the moral scale with occasional episodes at the comically evil.
I on the other hand like my evil with a capital E.

OR, we need Necro to be SUPER EVIL at last, not semi-neutral+ever-just-manipulating everyone else. Anyway, my personal best 2 factions throughout HMM series are 1)Necro 2)Dungeon and maybe that's why I'm so much against Inf getting in and one of the former getting out of the game. I am really orry if I have annoyed anyone

Dungeon, because if Ubisoft stick Inferno in again they'll have everyone gang up on them. As for needing a pure evil faction, bull, ubisoft may like there being a pure evil faction, but it's far from necessary.

Dungeon, of course! Give me my Heroes2 factions! Seriously, though, as I already said in the main discussion thread, I hope Dungeon wins, cause this will mean Heroes7 factions will mirror Heroes2 factions

What if they just think of two entirely new factions and pit them against eachother? Like Pirates VS Ninjas?

I am trying to understand this notion, but I am failing hard at it. Why do people say this? What does it matter if the game has same "factions" that were in 2nd game of the series when 5 games later we don't have same units, nor factions, nor heroes, nor spells, nor graphics, nor universe NOR ANYTHING RELATED?
Yes, we have the same 6 factions as in Heroes 2, except for the fact that 5 out of 6 are quite different.

You probably can't find a guy who loves to play Inferno more than me - but Inferno is no faction in Ashan, but a plague, and I'm sick of playing a mindless insect swarm bent on destruction for destruction's sake, only to disappear again. Since Inferno cannot be more than that in Duke Ivan's time or before, and considering the story around Ivan - how is an Inferno representative to be his advisor? Can only be Kiril or Raelag, and I'm not interested in that either.
Also, I'd like an underground faction - why have it in the first place without an underground faction? - and a real Dragon in the game, too, and not the undead abomination or the elven lizard.
I mean, let's face it - if you see the daft line-ups for Sylvans you should by now know that EVERY Dungeon Elves line-up will be obviously better than the Sylvan ones. That faction deserves to get their asses kicked by their dark cousins, no matter the line-up that will materialize.

Inferno was present in every game and I was never a fan of it's play style or overly fiery theme.
The hydra could also return as champion of swamp sanctuary. This could be an evil naga faction (cult of the destroyer) that wants to turn all land into swamp.
I suggested a possible line-up in the Creatures game thread:

Sanctuary
Core:
1 coral priestess (= medusa)
2 dragonfly
3 kappa
Elite:
1 kensei
2 basilisk
3 water spirit thingy
Champion:
1 kirin
2 hydra

Well spoken by an Inferno lover.
