So what? I'd much rather take One frosty against ground than maybe even 5 gargoyles. Yes gargoyles are possibly the best aa in the game (hippos maybe I haven't tested lol) so of course they'll have better that's what they're designed for.

For Melee, it makes sense to use Ghouls/Fiends/Possessing Banshees, while Air for Gargs.

If you use FWs, I assume it's for both, but hey, I say Ghouls/Fiends/Gargs take care of everything for a FW, and at less cost for it too.

Ya.....that combo is very nice. But Ghouls/Fiends/Gargs/Frost Wyrm is much better. :D

I s'pose you CAN splash in FWs for hitting bases and to back up Gargs, but even then I see little hope in them. I mean, they die easily against AA, despite being one of the high-damagers in WCIII and the highest damager in RoC.

But gotta love freezing buildings. A few negate stuff like the Death Star.

Absolutely not,this is not a "great" duo.if theres several duos.The best duo would be fiends/statues

Just fiends and statues? Any heavy melee will rip the shit out of that. Knights + Inner fire? KK THX GG

True. I don't like using fiends/statues very much. I find that going melee first (ghouls) and then getting up to aboms. Once you have 3-4 aboms then start getting fiends/statues. This really makes a kickass team of units.

Fw magic damage isn't that big of a lose. they are great for targeting heros with the high damage, and slwowing them. they arn't as slow to get as they once were, and with other units to support them, you have urself a good force.

Magic is a disability though. They cannot attack spell immune units and some units have armor types that are practically immune to it. The only reason you might want magic attack is for attacking units with Heavy Armor.

I personally think air is made to take out heavy melee. No heavy melee can attack air (Knights, Tauren, Aboms, Bears, Hunts (kinda), Footies, Grunts, and Ghouls (kinda)) So magic kills them faster so your ground can take out the rest. If heavy melee comes up and starts bashing on your crypt fiends theyll die in no time. But so will the melee if your crypt fiends get on them...

You might be right there.
