Im not orc, but they usually use it against my humans and it screws me up pretty good, but then i come back with longer ranged rifles.

ensnare is a great spell, but it can slow down the orcarmy, mainly because it requires an upgrade and it isnt to costly to only use one or two untis with just that upgrade. truely the spell is really powerful, with like 3 seconds on heros. only thing is raiders do crap damage to everythign but casters andbuildings. andtruely, all u have to do to beat it is focus on the raiders and they die cause they are generaly really weak.

but otherwise, ensnare is a really good spell especialy for running units

divine shiled> ensnare.
Ensnare is still a physical spell however, so it cana be used on magic immune untis to bad not invincible units

pally is such an overpwoered, underused hero and no one realizes it. everyone realizes DK is overpowered, but pally is the same but everyone screams nerf for dk casue it is overused.

yah I agree pally is overused, but i guess people would want either AOE or bril aura over devotion or heal. i personally like mk

This post was about ensnare not Pally's lol
ne ways i usally get radiers and use ensnare to get down those dang gryphons down. caz ne time i use berserkers they get owned as soon as the battle starts. ensnare also good for traping units then letting ur demolersers attack and burn the units that always fun. but ya ensnaring Hero's always good but i mean u can almost get same results now from purging the heros and not only does purge stun units for a sec or two but also slows units speed. overall i like ensnare even though raiders health and damge suck, blizzard need to fix them but that besides the point lol

sorry but I must say this, but 15 games is a lot, I see almost an AM every HU game I play or an MK. Maybe in 15 games I'll see a pally but i'm yet to see one.

Ensnare is a much better spell than purge, because it isnt really a spell, it is a physical effect. so unlike purge, ensnare can be used on magic immune units while purge cannot. aand ensnare drops a unit dead in its tracks, purge just slows it down. only advantage is shamans which have purge can caset lust also.
still, ensnare>purge

hu players gat AM+MK and usually pally thirdbut hardly it gets there.
ud players get DK + lich or CL + DK agaisnt other players
orc gets FS + TC or FS + SH

i usally take 4-6 radiers w/ me in my army to trap those DEVIL GRYPHONS(I really hate gryphons) and other air units. and because of the simple fact that radiers cant kill nothing, they die so quickly that y it good 2 jst hold them in rear while meat sheilds take place then send them in
but the whole point of this discussion is taht Ensnare is a good ability like it or not(even though radiers HP is an insult)

Here is what I figure a good combo that I use. Get about 12 raiders. Get a BM with level 3 windwalk. Get 2 healing pots and a few scrolls of speed. What you do is keep harrassing, and when they come, you use the scroll of speed and run out and heal, and keep doing that.

sounds like an interesting plan i will try it sometime, but wont u lose quite a few radiers in this pocess? even with the speed scroll if u dont get them out quick enough a mk or someone else can stun ur radier then he like dead. or like sleep and other abilities wat would u do about that?

I think them loosing half their buildings can make up for you loosing a couple of raiders. What is also good, is to have a invis potion on a Tauren Chieften for the aura.
