Warcraft 3 Reforged - War of Races

hello everyone in this video I'm going to be playing war of the races the objective of this game is to take out all three of your enemy's headquarters there's a little bit of a castle fight vibe to it except the races and units that you have are a bit more predetermined in a sense so yeah what we're going to do here at the beginning is try to get a hero unit to get a hero you need to upgrade your ancient of war two times and then that will give you access to the hero to summon but then you also have to upgrade your tree of life one time to fully unlock it let's take a look at our allies here looks we have the undead the V I'm just assuming the Naga and the Night Elves units will automatically spawn so each unit that you can create will automatically be spawned so if you upgrade it and gain access to a new unit and that means whenever your timer goes off you will get that unit in addition to the others so right now the Night Elves appear to have a less frequent spawn rate than the other two races so let's take a look at the unit strength so they have snapdragons which are 600 and do 40 damage whereas I get dry ants which are 520 and 230 damage and archers which has 420 often do 20 damage if I get like 1.8 times the unit and it looks like I have roughly 1.8 times the spawn rate or well slower spawn rate anyway so right now we're just waiting to reach 1,000 gold to upgrade the ancient of war while we wait here if you like at my videos consider your liking and subscribing and that'll also help you be notified of my next saturday livestream for precisely when it begins though so many things to look at on this map are periodically there are five in each lane there are gold mines random structures blacksmiths tower slots and all of these are used to make your team stronger so we just captured a goldmine which means we're getting an additional 30 gold per income cycle and yes so more gold mines you capture the more it'll help you out of course because you'll get a little bit of an income snowball going turn up the sound of it this was fine and so the reason why you prioritize doing the ancient of war first is as I explained you get the superior units upgrading your castle doesn't really provide you any immediate benefits which is why you save that for the end you'll see units whenever you kill enemies so we just got a few kills which is how we went from 990 gold to a thousand looks like I'm against the works the orcs to get a attacked in oh yeah I guess I should also show this off each race aside from having slightly different units get little racial bonuses so the Night Elves get one unit HP regen per second at night tower steel Splash Damage all buildings have two HP regen at night disadvantaged no day time region no 25% less building HP and 22 less building armor so instead of 1,500 HP our towers have 1200 and instead of five armor they have three which means our towers are really about somewhere in the ballpark of like 35 to 35% less durable roughly so if we wanted to we could get some armor right now and I think I'll probably go for that that will slow us down but getting an early armored cycle really just an early of cycle of any upgrade means that your units will be a bit stronger than the enemy's which means you can push get the gold mines and hopefully pay for the upgrade that you're trying to get just an extra income it looks like that's what the orcs did as well they went full range unit damage and armor armor it looks like pink or I guess orange has gotten no upgrades we can do range well since both of my units are ranged I don't know if there's really too much of a difference for which one I go with here I guess strength to the wild does have slightly more units at effects I suppose including the towers maybe I'll get one of each and then focus on getting the nice ancient of war again yes here's one of the building slots you can place a 3,000 range tower which can get multi shot a flame tower which is a low range Tower and then a slash mortar tower looks like it attacks the enemy structures so that's specifically for this spot if you're on the offensive and it looks like it's worthless of a defensive spot it's a thousand gold to go for the next ancient of war oh yeah here's one of the traveling merchants so once we get our hero we can use these to purchase items so let's take a look at what we can get staff of kingdoms we've it said three armor in an AoE which is decent it's probably about a 50% buff mostly the same medallion of kingdoms a small amount of stats glove of kingdoms actually that's pretty decent Warsong axe 20 damage that's not bad war song drums pretty good friend the armor not too big of a fan of temporary buffs but could be good and the last one looked like a shield of some sort also your towers and really any friendly structure can be repaired by using your buildings mana pool yeah so for 5 min I you can restore 250 health and so because we lost this fountain of mana we're no longer getting the bonus mana regen at our Tree of Life which means the enemy currently has I think too many fountains because I think there's one over here as well a little hard to tell so that's a random one but hmm and maybe maybe not there's something here and I'm pretty sure it was a man fountain but well we'll find out later on if orange pushes out so right now we have lost all three gold lines which is why the enemy is getting about 50 percent more income so that means there's a couple ways we could try to push forward we could use our gold to purchase units this isn't ideal because the units are very temporary but they can't give you a minor boost which could swing the tide of battle or you can instead just go for more unit upgrades so now that I have a level of three units summoner we need to start saving up for the Tree of Life and so the level 3 unit summoner gives us a druid and the druid can have spells researched which will give it fairy fire and then there's two more levels of spells that you can get as well not sure what the next two are the fairy fire reduces enemy's armor by 4 mean it's not bad let's let's take a look at their armor currently or yeah so take it from 19% damage reduction to zero which if you look at it that way a buff that does 20% more damage is pretty good fins on the cooldown for how useful it will really be let's get another armor you do want to get a hero sooner rather than later because your heroes can level up and just the sooner you get it the more levels you can get so this is the demon race the demon I believe is the strongest it has the strongest units but it has half the summoning frequency so I think that undead or let's say once a minute and they are once every 2 minutes let's try to see what they're summoning rates are I think oranges with 65 seconds research finish no 75 okay and then we can see what ours are as well in a moment we just need to save for the tree of Ages the hero even once you unlock it still cost an additional one thousand gold so it's pretty costly so I believe mine was sixty sixty five seconds and the undead was a little less than sixty so the ARS ended at roughly the same time so that means yeah this is about 15 seconds faster and in general you want the range unit upgrades first because then that'll end up snowballing while your melee units tank as the Night Elves you don't really get that decision because most of your units arranged if not all of them which is why you actually end up paying a premium on damage upgrades the melee unit upgrades for the works are extremely cheap like right now a level 3 upgrade who probably cost 100 gold whereas for me a level 3 upgrades already think that it was 240 so if we you take a look at our tier three units and compare the Raider has the same amount of damage with the same amount of upgrades but he gets more armor roughly the same amount of health and siege damage which means once he gets to my towers in a moment that could be a bit problematic you can also upgrade the gold mines for 500 gold I'm not sure if okay it looks like it's just gold income for your team permanently okay so that's a investment in the long run pretty obviously 10 gold for 500 permanently yeah we've bought roughly the same amount of upgrades it seems like the orcs are a bit stronger but they do have one more damage upgrade so who knows maybe that's a difference okay so unit wise I prefer ranged heroes because then you can safely take out the enemies without taking damage restoring HP to your hero can only be done at this health fountain and maybe through potions from item shops that have to double check which means that if you're a melee hero you're just always going to be at a bit of a disadvantage which is just kind of one kind of the nature of all melee heroes but yeah so that kind of locks us into Tyrande and so let's take a look at her stats so agility commander someone's night off archers bonus damage to an attack but rains mana true sha Dora and star fall all those sound pretty powerful so I don't think there's anything wrong with going for her we can read through the others while we wait so my Eve is fan of knives blink shadow strike deserve more or less all the campaign abilities and then entangling roots or force of nature yeah now if you're ian could be good as well yeah having the force of nature would of course help you push cuz you'd have little dummy units to tank with but I mean I get a squadron Night Elf are trees the most part seems like priestess is a bit stronger so assuming that my archer upgrades will benefit my hero Night Elves as well then I'm going to start prioritizing the strength of moon and we can just have our hero run this way that's automatic anyway looks like red managed to get his hero up a little bit sooner first few levels are pretty quick though so he probably only got his up about a minute pasture one Archer up to five pretty good alternatively we can do five percent damage or honey so I'll be maxing out the night off Archer squad first and then I think true shot or is probably in the next best just because that's a gradual but solid boost also if you lose your heroes it does cost money to revive so that can set you back quite a bit so from here the only other super unit that we need to consider is the Titan once you have a level 5 barracks on a max level Town Hall you can someone Titan district ending like twice the strength of a hero let's go ahead and I'll wait one more level because then then I'll boost us to two archers instead of one slightly unfortunate scaling I'm assuming that the archers don't get any stronger so really that first the second level is just a very very minor bonus of for less mana therefore less cool then let's get another strength of Moon let me double check what the druid training gives 40 HP hundred mana I'm assuming yeah just the druid detects druid okay yeah might get that soon all right that's a good enough time for the archer squad case three three whereas my real archers are also three three so it looks like it is taking effect archers aren't controllable they don't appear to have a duration so I guess you just want to spam that as much as you can sustain mana wise looks like the they've decided to upgrade a second ancient of war so they're now getting two raiders per round which is actually giving them a pretty significant boost I'll put a level into Starfall but just considering how much HPV units have I don't think that'll be useful until we get to level 2 or 3 where it does more damage yeah my towers taking a little bit of a beating so I'm going to use repair on it you can go ahead and get a level strength through the wild now in our it let's get a second barracks upgrade as well just to keep up okay so instead of so it looks like they get hero damage and stuff Pierce but that's the only difference next level is Hippogriff so that'll be a flying unit doing pretty solid damage to hero it's not expecting a oh no that's actually a melee unit looked range it should be a kill right now and great that caught us 400 exp which is about 10% over Louisville and I don't know how much it cost and I'm assuming it's probably around five hundred to a thousand goal which means that'll set back read quite a bit go ahead and get that druid training now so it looks like he's up to three level two baricza's who unfortunate looks like orange has left the game meaning we are actually going to be falling behind quite a bit however you do he will get his income like normal and we're able to see his resources so if we want to take on the burden of an extra player to try to keep his lane going we can but I guess for right now I'll just put his money into an upgrade just try to keep him going I don't think you ever actually get your allies resources so there's no reason not to spend it we're not to invest it I guess now this gives us an opportunity to see the resurrection cost okay so level eight is actually 11 hundred gold so that's a pretty significant penalty entangling roots is pretty solid yeah all of these Forks just seem to be melting my ranged units and that maxes out Archer squad her wait no there's a seventh level the goddess agrees finally getting pretty making a little bit of progress of course with this hero backup we're going to lose that quickly desync detected by teal okay actually bounces this out again leading the way hopefully these archers can figure out where to go that is basically break their a I might owe the enemy pushes to here I guess they'll acquire the target I am vigilant next barracks upgrade is 2,000 should be a relatively easy kill on red with the help of my archers I have like double the DPS my move speeds too low hopefully the archers don't give money there's no way to know okay looks like I have now maxed out my damage [Music] Oh since these are summoned units that's possible the shamans are actually a little bit specialized against me the shamans did access to purge which goes like two to three hundred damage to summoned units so if that is taking effect then this is a pretty unfortunate mansion okay let's go ahead and upgrade agent trying to get my archers in the back so that the purge will hit the units that it does nothing too yeah is definitely doing 400 damage to each Archer that is some bad rock-paper-scissors there for me of course not quite senses random units just bad luck arete is really not much of a threat just considering how good archers are looks like he got away again but actually if I just pursue him to the manor fountain that's the only place he can heal so there's not much reason for you not to also ferry fire got applied which is giving us a vision for 60 seconds some of my archers okay that should be a kill you know go ahead and fold heal while I'm here trust in my command I'm going to get another ancient of war now that my entangling spell has been unlocked justlet should go around the top yeah we've pretty much you never had the gold mines also they've just forgotten to invest money is there anything else I could buy and then I guess I could quickly get him some extra barracks upgrades it's the easiest way to quickly spend money okay what's that now have two sets of druids and then I'll get my third in a moment well not very quickly but eventually in once again just with all these summoners I have to delay or else we'll just kill my archers immediately took F to run to the health fountain we can just prioritize armor for orange spawning grounds and give another spawning grounds Oh guess I'm cedilla about 5,000 but apparently not we must act as I thought though next up we'll probably gonna be getting the tree of eternity upgraded Purple's Gigi out not much of a shock we're down a player down some barracks down some towers and that just leaves me there's not really a way for me to recover from this but I'll probably still stick it out to the end my guess here is that if the enemies push aggressively you could probably defeat us within about 5-10 minutes so we'll just keep going see what happens till then you go ahead and since I have to manage all three of these and two times okay looks like they were going a bit light on the upgrades but then again you do get money whenever you lose the tower so maybe now I guess they could go help out green if the wave hits all units they can pretty quickly or go half orange they take out all the units pretty quickly they just got an extra druid just like with the additions of hydras that's already starting to push out a little bit 4,000 okay here 2500 meat wagons are not ideal for boosting the strength of purple actually I have to head back to the top the demons just arrived oh that's my dad accidentally just brought them all up to my towers I guess I will keep purple alive so it's not necessarily terrible it looks like my towers is going down hmm I can't even tell if my ultimate did anything that did not look like a single star landed but it's possible that it's so zoomed out it was just unnoticeable okay let's upgrade the tree trust in my command then we need another two thousand to get the next unit a little bit of a unit block think it's you know maybe I could still sneak by that that would all be in direct vision if fives maxed out five is maxed out so group oranges barracks aren't getting any stronger purple still has them upgrades available I'm war kodos assuming those give the 5% passive pay much that's pretty bad oh they also bought a mortar tower not too much I can do about that they have two heroes pushing against me could start to just train units but I don't know if that actually helped much think we'll go ancient of war and then level five and try to give one of the Titans I doubt that it'll actually be enough considering how much extra gold the enemy is getting for mines but I think they'll still be interesting to see looks like they have mortar on the bottom and they're about to have mortar in the middle the goddess agrees think this applies no maybe it does apply to buildings I know there's some attacks that are pretty oh wow okay so if you replace or if you attack the tower it becomes yours so that random structure lot just permanently becomes a mortar tower unless maybe you can sell it if you can sell it tonight gladly take this money okay well you can't sell it but it seems pretty likely that I'll lose this again soon enough so I'm just going to destroy it that just threw a thousand of someone's gold into the trash which is pretty good considering the fact that keeping it is unlikely okay so I think we have access to the Titan now and we do so Titan of nature 3000 gold useless at early levels dominates if trained well yes it could just start summoning hydras is that the true model is that what that is I don't think so up too weak for his next spawn in a few seconds to double-check the name [Music] yeah with this extreme damage boost that is a actually pretty good DPS carry ok back to what I wanted to check the height strangely there are no hydros right now all right yes we'll just summon some dragon Turtles what are we doing upgrade lines 4 to 6 well so despite the fact that I have superior upgrades superior damage and superior Oh at just superior upgrades does not seem to be helping his sea orcs yeah my units shooting theory be about 50% stronger oh not really maybe like 20% stronger lip grade to the black Citadel ah so teal just made it tighten and I'll be making my tighten right now looks like that takes about a minute maybe two to train getting through this guy is going to be quite difficult and I don't really have the mana for it seems like my searing arrows aren't applying probably because he's magic immunity let's go for moon armor I don't know what type of unit Titan is that's just an easy way to get a buff actually he's a hero so never mind and whenever you kill a Titan you actually get gold for your team so we just got 750 gold try training at Titan for orange just small we have time now it looks like I'm I unintentionally aggro'd another wave of demons okay there's my Titan in the wrong spot to help out with this if he actually assisted this would have been easy to take out without losing the tower just barely be able to salvage it okay let's go with the nipple grafts any good and can't really tell but it's good cyclone and then sure will get it everywhere I'd really like to get unit HP Wow my Titan did terrible it took out about one wave of units and then died oh well I mean pretty bad used to 3,000 gold but not too much I can do about it at this point okay well he's not dead yet I'm just assuming that they won't have difficulty taking out the unit with a thousand HP especially since they just sent the Titan as well might be able to get a kill on read one more hit might be able to get a kill on both actually alright we'll take out teal take what we can get spawned some a backup archers it's really nice we took out their Titan without losing mine okay back to upgrades we can pick up another Hippogriff someone a Titan of the Dead gets more units did that oranges Titan spawn it did yeah that's probably mistake his Titan died and accomplished nothing leading the way the goddess agrees if neither of my allies left I think we would have actually had a reasonable shot my elven Archer backup spell is down but it I can't actually escape him since he's faster movement speed okay here we go summon archers okay I'm actually still in the range of the health fountain which is the only reason why I'm alive I just have to keep the attacks up with my searing arrows I'm doing more damage than he is one to go don't think I got it or no I did nice but they took out my base in the process so yeah my army is okay now it looks like even if she still units that those in Canada is anything that's the game I think it's a pretty interesting one it's kind of like castle fight I tell you there's a I know if I'd necessarily say there's more or less strategy in this but it's certainly strategy is quite a bit different and my team was just never quite able to catch up we didn't get the gold month well we got one gold mine lost him pretty quickly and then that just meant the enemy probably got 5,000 Extra Bold over us and then of course orange left purple left and then he left actually teal desync that was just good luck well yeah pretty fun I think could possibly use a little bit of balance changes made just seeing as how the orcs seemed to do better than the elves despite the fact that I had significantly more upgrades I guess we'd have to check the unit frequency but it seemed like they were about the same and then additionally the purge ability just seemed unlucky considering the fact that my hero one of my key abilities was a unit summons and theirs did 400 damage to unit summons whereas if they were against say an undead who couldn't summon anything or perhaps let's just say another orc force don't have any summoning spells then that's just a wasted ability so yeah but so if you like this video consider liking and subscribing and I'll see you guys in the next one
