    Hey man just wanted to comment, I dont play but I watch HOMM youtubers, thank you for expanding the community and making it more popular, these guides are very interesting for me as I only played this game as a kid and never played it "efficiently" so thank you for every one of these videos and trying to make the game a better place for newcomers :)

    I like much more this type of map than the one with boxes. It's much slower but more fun to me building your town and recruiting your units from your starting faction.

    Lexiav, really looking forward to the tutorials after all the tierlists!
    I was wondering what they actually did to make Tower even remotely playable in HOTA on Jebus:
    1. Magi building no longer blocks your path to get genies, nagas and giants
    2. Added Lamps where you can get speed 11? units on top of the rest of your army
    Okay, this makes sense, interesting changes to improve balance and actually give tempo to Tower.
    Thank you for the great content, keep it up! :)

    Hi Lexiav! I really love the content that you're sharing with us. I've been playing Heroes 3 a lot when I was a kid and I have great memories with my friends playing hotsead mode during the summer break. A match would go the entire summer, as we liked gathering huge armies and then bashing eachother with 300 Archangels/Dragons etc. However, watching you play the game is something else. Also, the ranked matches that you're posting are really confusing to me. Do you actually play versus your opponent on the same map? Is there ever a 'decisive' fight? I think that an in-depth tutorial of the most basic things that you do during a game, as well as an explaination of how the ranked games actually play out would be magnificent! Take care and thank you again for the content

      @khonshxb2255 Před 3 lety +9

      They are real 1v1 matches. You get a biome generated based off of a template. The ones you see are usually Jebus Cross which means you start in the middle town of your biome, with 2 unclaimed sidetowns - and so does your opponent. in order to get into the desert you need to get through a break - an exceptionally strong group of neutrals. You are allowed to scout your biome and reset twice on day 1 or once on day 2 if you don't like it (111 and 112). Decisive fights will generally happen in the desert, but if the player dies vs neutrals losing their army/main hero they usually call gg as to not waste players' time (if they can't reset at that point)

      There is a whole document out on that topic. Like a real academic paper.
      But to sum it up. To get earth magic you need a barbarian, ranger, overlord or beast master. Pick the magic school during lvlups always. Then you are secured earth magic at some point.
      Warlocks death knights and necromancers are alright, but they might just not learn earth. You could be unlucky.

    @colin9837 Před 3 lety

    It seems to me that terrain disproportionately affects tower/cove/fortress, basically forcing you to only use native troops or suffer pretty bad terrain penalties. In your experience, is this actually a problem for factions from rough terrains?

    • @Lexiav
      @Lexiav  Před 3 lety +1

      Yeah, definetly. It is the thing that holds these factions from being top tier. Every faction has its up and weakneses, and for Tower, Fortress and Cove. Less so for Stronghold.

    @coolblade23 Před 3 lety

    why not torosar as a starting hero ? you get ballista to clean up early maps, starts with magic arrow to clear up most of the map early on along with mystic to recharge from fight to fight and you also get tactics , which tower having so many ranged units and even early on can benefit immensely ... he is also an alchemist which means he get a more balanced range of stats making his troops on average better than a wizards one (for example your range unit will do more damage over time)

    • @Lexiav
      @Lexiav  Před 3 lety

      Yeah! Torosar could be your first choice aswell. As stated in the video, i see most tower heroes to be preety bad overall compared to heroes of other factions, so you're very likely to find an actual main in the tavern rather than main your started choice, so it's more like choosing a secondary bonus. If the secondary bonus of your choice is a balista, magic arrow hero and a guy with tactics for some early Black Tower / Ranged fights then that's alright! Nothing wrong with that choice. :)

    • @Lexiav
      @Lexiav  Před 3 lety +2

      Oh, and also mixed stats is a bad thing, you usually want a very mighty guy, or a magic guy. Think about it this way, the more knowledge you have, the more every point of power benefits you. The more power you have the more every point of knowledge benefits you. Simmilar thing for might stats too. The worst primary stat growths for heroes are the ones that don't focus on something and are all over the place. This is why elementalists are the best mages ( 0/0/3/3 ) and Beastmasters/Barbarians ( 0/4/1/1 - 4/0/1/1 ) are the most preferable might heroes. Stacking same type of stats is the strongest.
