The unit/building you use the least

I think playing with humans, I use almost everything except 2 :

-unit: flying machines. I never build workshop just for flying machines. I can hardly use it for true sight. Only if i have workshop for mortars or tanks. There's no need to comment this unit.
-building: Canon Tower. I havent used cannon tower for 1 year. It has splash dmg but can be destroyed and costs a lot of money. Never use it.

I agree^^...But it is a pretty good idea to build one flying machine just for NE...ofcourse if you already have a workshop.

I actually make kodos quite often, their aura is like trueshot for everything you have, chimeras doing 88-125+55 is quite fun in 2v2 games. They're worth getting everytime you have a beastiary and a fortress. Devour kinda sucks it misses so often..

no mgs? hmmm...




I dont know, when Im NE.. I use pretty much all buildings, I guess I use Ancient of Wind and War the least (I only use AoW in tier 1, I like lore farm/animal farm)

And as for units... chimes.. they cost so ****ing much... just too much resources.. I dont have enough to make them anyways...

Well actually if your a skilled player you would use pretty much every unit. Except the flying machine ( thats the only exception). For buildings that a bit different. If you dont need it then dont build it.

I'm a human playe, but I use almost every unit. Never use the Flying Machine, only for scouting if I don't know where the enemy is yet, and they're relatively cheap and build fast, so it's a good scout.

I usually get mortars w/flares anyways, so its's kind of pointless, especially in solo.

The building I never get is the Cannon Tower.Same reason as you, too much gold for too weak of a bulding.

Well the Flying Machine was given to humans basically not to be used but for scouting only because they lacked that and they added the mechanical critter. Thus is being 1 food so it wont disrupt anything like the shade just worse. (In wc2 they couldn't even attack)

Unit: probably the headhunter, most of my orc strategies dont use this unit.

Building: Most buildings are required for most good strategies. but if i had to pic one poor building, ill pick the...crap i cant remember the name...the place where amboms and meatwagons a produced. i rarely build that.

Actually Kodos>MG....

Probablly the worst feeling in a game is spending 400+ resources on a unit just to watch it being digested in the back of a orc base.

If were talking about solo as NE I would agree with theroy. Probablly the crows, and ryderz.

building would be the ancient protector. I hate towers.

Oh yes, Spirit Walkers.
I saw it in one UD vs UD game,both got lich, ghouls, the one made some destroyers and the other jus 1-2, then he made some frosties and they owned the ghouls. It's for FFA but once you suprise your opponent with them, they are very useful.
