    id still love to see all elite infantry have an extra 30% magic resist or even more instead of trying to balance magic. I think it would make the decision between bringing direct damage magic and buff magic a tougher decision too. it'll never happen tho

    Huzzah! Thanks for this glorious new year's present. I know you're not the biggest H.E. fan, but I think you really get what makes them cool - it's not the bows and magic, it's elite infantry and heavy cav. Question: How do you think the build would've held up if Yumi had brought any of the big vortex spells? Searing Doom took its toll over time, but seemed a lot more manageable.

    Hey Turin! Long time watcher/lurker on streams! You and Legendoftotalwar are the reason I even got into total war, and even with 2600 hours of playtime I've yet to even touch multiplayer.
    On that note, have you considered making videos on the subject of beginners to multiplayer? Something like armies for people who are bad at micro, or builds for generic use? It could make for good videos (knowing you) and there's a lot of content to cover with that!

    Try fire caster with the flaming sword spell, can cast it anywhere in the battle to make any of your units win their engagement. Makes the norsca matchup so free. Don’t even need elite troops. Get some lions with their good phys and missile resist they ignore horse skirmish and troll punch while being affordable, fast, AP, and good in every stat

    The frostheart bird is finally good, after so many years of suffering. The changes to the ward save, getting frostbite and looks like some MA (I distinctly recall 35 MA, lower than even an Eagle), have given the blue bird a place. Now if only they can make the blue (moon) dragon slightly more cost effective, but Im not sure I want HE to be a monster faction. I like where they stand right now

    Nice to see an elite army work. I like the frostheart aswell. It's worth it most of the time. To me the real mvp's of the high elves are the lothern seaguard, Never a waste. Just so hard to get rid of effectively. The only good way to deal with them is somehow getting infantry on top of them.

      Unit diversity, which increases the role of strategy (knowing matchups, technical picks).
      Low tier / chaff infantry having a role (soaking up charges, ammo, capture weight) means people don't just spam the same elite stuff like campaign doomstacks
      I don't super understand the rest of your question - gold caps? Turin did a high-goldcap tournament once a while back, was cool but there's a sweet spot for diversity vs having too much gold
