Playing with orcs seems like a basic strategy in itself, as many people who begin simply focus on using classic grunts and tauren for melee, and windriders for anti-air. While windriders are a very versatile unit which really make the orc worth playing, the usefulness of raiders is time and time again overlooked.

Raiders were created for fast, effective strikes and immobilizing air units with their net ability. Combating an army straight out with raiders and heroes will get you killed though, so we must find a way to balance out the damage done against them, this is where spirit walkers come into play. Spirit walkers start out on tier 1 with a spell called 'spirit link'. This spell will connect four units together; these four units will share the damage that is given to all of them, so if you have four raiders joined together and one of these raiders gets attacked for 12 damage, the damage will equate to 3 on each of the four spirit-linked units. This spirit link strategy is useful with any unit.
