Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne/Night Elf strategies

Send the first four wisps in the goldmine.The other one should build an Altar of Elders. The 6th a Moonwell and let the 7th gather lumber.The 8th will get right into the goldmine,while 9th the will build an Ancient of War(AoW).The 10th will gather like the 7th some lumber.When you possess 40 lumber,build another moonwell. Your first hero should be the Demon Hunter(DH). So you should have 20 supply with 13 wisps,your hero and one archer. This is the Build Order (BO) for normal games.

If you want to play Mass Hunts(you create a lot of hunts and attack your opponent early in the match),you should change your build order a little bit: first 6 wisps will do the same,but you should send the next wisps gathering lumber and create wisps along,until you`ll possess 160 lumber.Then start with two wisps the Hunter`s Hall(HH) and the AoW at the same time.After both buildings were finished start creating Hunts as many as you can.And don`t forget to build Moonwells,if you have enough lumber for the next ones (40 pieces are required). At last don`t forget to take the Princess of the Moon (PotM) first,because has an aura,which is better for hunts than other heroes.

Against Human
Build huntresses instead of archers as the backbone of your army, as the Human Footman have Defend, which kills your archers' attacks. Remember to scout well since Humans can expand quickly. Also, later in the game, build 5-6 Faerie Dragons since your enemy will certainly use and rely on lots of spell casters, and your Faerie Dragons will just hover there and damage them repeatedly with Mana Flare as you fight the main battle.

Anti-Rush: Be sure to not leave your main base with your hero and two archers (you did build that to start, right?) for a little while at the start of the game. This is to defend against the tower rush which can kill you if you are not there to cut it off right as it starts. Once you have a total of three archers, you may leave your base, but be sure to keep at least one (two is better) archers back in the base to kill the peasants that may run into your base and start building.

Against Orc
Priestess of the Moon with her Scout ability is the only good counter against that pesky Blademaster and his Wind Walk. Use huntresses in conjunction with the Priestess as a main force, and back up with lots of Dryads and Faerie Dragons, since Orcs are absolutely guaranteed to try to use Bloodlust as their winning strategy, and your Dryads will dispel it from their units, and the Faerie Dragons will kill their shamans, all as you are winning the battle.

Make sure to keep a few Archers and one Dryad in your base at all time, just in case they send in a lone Raider trying to do damage while your main force is gone. The Dryad will be able to poison the Raider and the Archers will dish out the damage. If the Raider starts to attack your Dryad or any of your Archers, run them to a Moon Well.

Against Nightelf
Large amounts of Hippogryph Riders are an excellent and unexpected way to kill Night Elf players. Use hit and run tactics, and be sure to have plenty of Bears on the ground, backed up by lots of siege. You will attack their base from behind with the Riders, and when they respond by moving their whole army in that direction, move in from the other side with Bears and siege, taking out their buildings. As they run towards the bears, pick them off one by one by focusing fire from the Riders. This is highly effective unless they are massing Towers.

Anti-Tower: Build three to four Mountain Giants and be sure to give them Hardened Skin. Back up with Druid of the Claws that can cast Rejuvenation. Go straight for their Towers, and have ONE of the Mountain Giants cast Taunt, and then keep healing him as the others go to town on the Towers.

Against Undead
Always use Mountain Giants, because they are excellent against both massed Ghouls and Crypt Fiends. Use the Warden hero to Fan of Knives your enemies' units as they group around the Mountain Giant, which casts Taunt repeatedly. Huntresses are the key to success, as are Druids of the Claw casting Cyclone on their Abominations to keep them tied up while you kill their other units. Remember to bring siege along even if you don't usually like to, since Undead have a built-in tower defense which is very powerful.

Always, always, always buy Dust of Appearance to counter buried Crypt Fiends. Many players will rely on burying their Fiends if they are outnumbered, and wait for you to leave. You can use the Dust and easily kill two to three of them before they have a chance to unbury and run away.
