GenyaArikado clearly hates mytho-monsters because he doesn't understand them and is just plain stupid.
Troglodytes and Beholders arent mythical monsters, they are from DnD. I dont like manticores, yes. You tried
Troglodytes are cave men, they don't look like the lizards from D&D. They are creations of HOMM in this case.
Lurkers aren't from D&D, they aren't D&D based. Isitoq, Hyakume, Argus and Butatch-All-Illgs are all eyeball monsters, so mythology also has them in the plenties.
I was talking about your big hate for Manticores.

The delusion levels you reach to try to be right make me a sad sad man.

One eye monster inside a big head, it s called Beholders. Unlike you notice to many differences from Heroes 3, they are based on.

Yes, Faces gained a percent! I'm really curious about what the results will look like after the fake votes have been removed.

Faces starting to seem hopeless (again like the Sylvan vote) because of the vote-changers (again like the Sylvan vote) who just want to be on a winning-side. And now with the latest news, please, return to your original Faces votes.
I cannot believe Blade is winning. It is so visibily horrible that it is funny.

Argus and Hyakume are both may-eyed giants. So please stop using them as examples of beholders. Some games in last 20 years have shown them as beholders because beholders.
About Beholders: Beholder
We can safely assume that at least 90% of today,s eye monsters are influenced by beholders.
Isitoq is sadly a barely known Inuit deity or spirit. From mythology dictionary: In the lore of the Inuit, a tornaq. This spirit, who seeks out those who have broken taboos, is envisaged as having eyes which have a mouth in the middle. In some accounts, called Isitoq, Giant Eye or Giant Eye.
This creature is so unknown that he can't be considered a basis for beholder or many other "eye monsters." In fact we dont know how much body most of it's descriptions had. It also seems to have no special eye powers, something which all beholder-like creatures have.

Although I am supporting shield, I don't think blade winning is so visibly horrible.
In fact they don't have that horrible strider on the line up.
I see face as the most obvious worst witg that horrible strider and two very similar elf units. Yes, one is melee and the other one is shooter...but seriously weren't they the same unit in H5, just a result of different upgraded units?
I seriously don't know why they dont have lurkers instead. Two similar dark elves is just too lame. Again, lets not forget about that horrible construct strider.
Medusa alone is just not enough to vote for face considering all the drawbacks mentioned above.

Well they are still working on the whole cheating thing, so there is a lot of hope for faces yet.
Anyway, im not getting the whole strider hate. I actually like the idea of non-academy constructs also existing (heck i wouldn't have any problem with non-necropolis undead). The lore makes them different, something similar to dark protoss Stalkers. I actually like the idea of a faceless controlling some constructs from the shadows. And i can see this "dark magic" construct as part of the dungeon faction.
Although as a disclaimer, if i would have to choose between medusa and strider i would pick medusa. Same with medusa vs shadowhorn.
Edit: After posting i came to a realisation that i have one great problem with strider and it being the fact that it replaces one of old classics (or even some other creatures who i would want to see again) who could be returning.
Still, a better dungeon creature than shadowhorn.

And so the voting has come to an end,
It's closed, no more votes to be spent,
But we won't know what, till tomorrow comes.
A clash of Heroes, of Blades and Shield,
Which is the choice of arms to wield?
But we won't know that, till tomorrow comes.
In Darkness lurks uncertainty, with many Faces,
Inspiring fear, in your vein the blood races,
It won't quiet down, till tomorrow comes.
Of the five one falls, reducing to four,
Hidden in the shadows, they are at the Core,
We'll see the quartet, when tomorrow comes.
Above them despair and anguish come in speed,
Of the six, at most five can now be the Elite,
We'll know who's who, when tomorrow comes.
Two that remain, their position beyond any price,
Multi-headed, or on obsidian wings it flies,
We already know them, when tomorrow comes.
And so, left for dead are at least two, tears to cry,
Parting is such sweet sorrow, we have to say goodbye,
Because for them, tomorrow never comes.

I disagree
Of course it's a shame that they are unicorns corrupted by darkness instead of just dark unicorns, but I like the idea of a nightmare in dungeon much better than it in inferno. It will still be a charger that will spread fear into the hearts of the enemy, which I like better than some melee walker that curses the enemy. We already have the minotaur as melee walker. Unfortunately blade is too heavy on the teleport and strike-and-return abilities for my liking, so I didn't want to vote for the inclusion of the nightmare. However, if it would have been in the faces line-up instead of the strider I would probably have voted faces, despite the medusa.

Don't give D&D so much credits please. They are cheap stealers and create stuff based on unknown stuff to get money.
