  These are some ideas of a great army to beat up your opponent and add to your account profile.(Profile only on B.net)
 
  1. Dyrads and Mountain Giants
This is an under-used strategy, it's mostly the fact that both dyrads and Mountain Giants are not affected by AOF spells such as Blizzard, Rain of Fire, and Fan of Blades. Also, the Dyrads slow the enemy while your tanks,(the Mountain Giants) get close enough to taunt the enemy and make them attack. But, tryto get 3-4 Ancients of Lore. That should make for a quick army. Don't get caught teching as a Night Elf, as, they are weak against rushes for some reason. I've never really found out why.

  2. Chimeras and hippographs
<li> Chimeras and hippographs</li>
 
This is a very common strategey allthough, it is weak against Tanks. Considering the fact that the Chimeras are the highest tech unit, along with Bears, you should have some sort of a defence while teching to the Chimeras. Since the Hippographs are already going to be made and they are only 2nd tier, try getting some Archers and Hippographs than putting the Archers on the Hippographs for a Hippograph Rider. You can reasearch the ability in the Ancient of the Wind. But, if you spot mass Tanks make sure you take the Archers off when they come a little to close for confort.

  3. Dyads and Farrie Dragons
<li> Dyads and Farrie Dragons</li>
This is very effectively the Night Elves' Anti Caster. The Dyrads are immune to magic and also have Abolish Magic to take away any neggitive buffs from allies and possitive buffs from enemies which makes Priest usless. Also, a great counter against that annoying Possesion the Undead uses. The plan mostly used with these is the Farrie Dragons go to the Casters (almost always found in the back of the group)than use Mana Flare over the Casters. This strategy only works well in non-solo games. But, if you are solo and your opponent has massed Casters. Just bring along a few Bears and mabye a Mountain Giant to take all the punishment.

  4. Harrassing
<li> Harrassing</li></ol>
a) Hide Harrassing- This is a very fun strategy that only works early in the game against Undead. Just harrass with a Hero and a few Archers. Set the Arhers behind the gold mine and press the hide button so even if there is enemy near by the hide won't deactivate. Run your hero away when the Archers are hiding behind the gold mine.(If you don't do this at night your screwed) Just unhide and damage an Acolyte. But, make sure it's very quick and the player is busy creeping. So they won't know what happened. Than just keep it up units about 4:00am. Than run your Archers away before they come back. By than you should be almost done with your Tree of Life to a Tree of Ages. Than start what ever unit producion you want. This also works with Huntresses. For an added twist try using Warden too

b) Hero Harrassing- The best hero for harrassing the unsuspecting enemy would probably be the Warden. She can hide, Blink, Fan of Blades, and Shadow Strike. If you use her to harrass, than learn your first move as Fan of Blades. Make sure you set off to your enemy's base at around 9:00pm or 21:00. A good idea is to get a potion of invisibility. Use the potion then get to the workers. If its human or Orc, use Fan of Blades on the miners. If its Night Elf, just attack the ones on the tree not using any spells. If its Undead make sure to watch out for the ghouls and attack the miners. If you encounter any trouble such as a hero. Press the hide button, if you've gained a level, use it on blink. When you hidden, blink away than run for your life! If you see a tower near the target workers don't even try this.
