Solo NE.. what heros?

Im wondering what are the common or preferred heros vs each of the other races.. including a mirror... I know what units to get and so forth, but I can never decide on what heroes to ge tvs what enemies. I usually try to get two heroes.. so i was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to post the two best or most common heroes for NE and why vs which opponents.. thansk in advance

Edit: you can include tavern heroes too|||Demon Hunter and Keeper of the Grove are solid choices. With the exception of the mediocre Thorns Aura, every one of their abilities is very solid and very useful in pretty much any given situation.

Priestess, eh. Searing Arrows and the owl scout are good, but starfall is a pretty gimpy ultimate. I mean it's potentially good, but nine times out of ten she's going to get focus fired or stunned somehow in the middle of it, and the cooldown is ridiculously unforgiving. Even Tranquility has a very nice 60 second cooldown, especially considering its 30 second duration. I don't have a lot of experience playing with or against the Warden, so I couldn't say how to use her effectively or if she's worth taking over a DH or KotG. My gut says no.|||it just seems like a lot of people only get DH some of the time, like against human to shut down the int heroes.. or cases like that... and why is the naga sea sitch always chosen 2nd for arrows.. when entangle> arrows?|||entangle is dispellabe, DH/Naga is a really strong combo, especially if you buy boots for the DH. DH/Panda is a strong combo too, especially against Undead (the Naga is too fragile for this matchup). In elf-mirror you could try solo Potm, DH/Naga, DH/DR, Potm/dr etc.|||Quote:

PotM is used for Trueshot Aura in NE mirror. -_-|||Seconded. And Tranq's cooldown is roflshort.|||so would you guys mind listing like...

Ne: two heros

Ud: two heros

Orc: two heros

hu: two heros

I would really appreciate thanks in advance|||vs NE: PotM Naga or DH Naga

vs UD: DH Panda or Warden Panda

vs Orc: DH BeastM or DH KotG

vs HU: DH Naga or DH Panda|||thx.. anyone else mind posting their favorites for certain matchups?.. thanks|||DH/kotg or solo Kotg or Kotg/warden or just solo warden pwns the sh|t out of orc realy bad :( especially kotg early game. The only way you can win vs solo kotg is if you survive t1, which is practically impossible with entangle + hunts around. screw burrows, they < ballista.|||If you do use KotG first, you a) need to pressure really hard at t1 coz entanglefocus owns grunts, and b) get lvl 3 entangle as fast as possible, then keep running up to the orc, entangling something and running away (use invuln pots if he's massed raiders or something). Lvl 3 entangle does 900 damage I think.. at any rate enough to kill a grunt or raider without any help. And 99% of all Orcs don't get dispell. In other words, you kill off his whole army, and once only his heroes are left, you get your own army and pwn him. :)

Edit: Snypar, wolves or windwalk >>> listas though...|||yeah but entangle >> windwalk. and of course theres dust from their shop. :/|||Quote:

i always taught windwalk removed the entangle :p lolz

like mirror image does.|||I've seen Dark Ranger first vs. Undead since she can't be nuked with the death coil. Second hero I think is circumstantial.

I personally like to have Tinker first, since at my level, people don't really know what he's capable of, and don't know how to reacte to him. Aside from that, he's a really powerful hero.

Experiment with the tavern heroes. Firelord, Tinker, and Dark ranger are all useful, and then there is of course Panda and Naga Witch who are all common and useful.|||having like 3 secs of entagle isn't that good...

anyways, all except the potm. or solo potm.|||PotM is useful, as a second or third hero.

And entangle is useful.|||agaisnt heroes I mean. you'll have the bm for 3 secs, so what?

[but I do suck with ne]|||Quote:

thats more then enough time for faerie fire :-)|||Everyone seems to go the stuff they see in pro replays all the time. Which is fine, just seems a little boring to me.

Usually, if your army is pretty strong, has no problems and can do some decent damage by itself it doesn't matter what hero you get in any situation.

For example, if you have say 4-6 Bears for melee, some good amount of dryads and dotts, maybe a few fairy dragons, you could pretty much get any hero you pleased, because in some way its going to help you. One of my favorites is the Tinker actually. His rockets are a nice small AOE stun, in which you can stun the enemy's melee and take that down somewhat fast, his pocket factory provide some little exposives that do decent damage for their size, not to mention something else that is going to direct fire away from your army for a second. Giving you more time to inflict damage on his. Not to mention is ulitmate is pretty good.

You might want to try the alchemist as well too. If you put some boots of speed on him, and chemical rage often you should find hes not that bad of a hero. He has the highest damage output in the game, his downfall is he attacks slow. So if you can creep something real fast and find gloves of haste it would definatly be in your benifit.

Any hero works really, it just depends on if your army is stable enough, and how you play with your hero.|||Quote:
