deads, they are the most useless unit in the universe, theyre expensive, theyre slow (eliminating the hit-and-run factor that an archidon could use) and do close to no damage (like 1 fifth of a bar), like cmon, whos stupid enough to spawn these scum-lngs of life? they were born to be a melee unit, i rly think they should buff the deads, theyre absolutely horrible, i mean poison woopdefriggindoo, but cmon the cons far outweigh the pros, if there are any pros, any agree?

If they are so useless, how'd WyzDm beat my entire Eclipsor spam with them? How come Crimshock uses them as him strategy? Gotta be fair man, no unit is useless....

woah, a dead can take an albow in 1v1. Anyone who isn't covering their ranged with tanks is silly, or great at kiting. (which loses a lot of effect in larger battles with diverse units) In later stages of the game, the dead becomes a major part of any Chaos army, poison has the potential to do massive damage over time on the entire oposing force at once. Just take out the merics quick. Combining stuns from juggs/giants will help extend the mathematical advantage of poison, elimimating time they run for heals or fight back.

I don't believe any unit is useless per se, they simply have different playstyles and roles in the army. You can't compare a dead to an archer and say, "hey, you don't do what an archer can so you must be terrible", because the two units are entirely separate entities. If you want speed just get crawlers and bombers, kite all you want with them and they're dirt cheap. Bombers are basically ranged anyways as long as they don't get shot.

You are tempting me to make a thread about pros and cons of units (Chaos). But unfortunately I dont have chaos so I cant do that.

With poison they are scary...

For you, because you are master swordwrath, which makes you afraid to mages.

No unit is useless. But some units rise up to the challenge while others cannot.
Deads are the only cheap ranged unit that can tank

Poison on deads makes them quite possibly the best ranged unit.

yeah but i just hate most units that cant hit and run, plus i recently played krazy using nfrgas acc, and the dead did like no damage to my sword, oh and aiman pls do make a chaos pros and cons, their fun to read

I rarely use deads though, and hardly ever in a serious match. That's to say they ain't useful, but don't defend them because I use them. I don't.

see? i got vouched by the masta of stickempires, thats gotta mean something

Well, dead's aren't known for their damage (although spamming them is op, like archers), it's the poison.

You sure you phrased that sentence right?

well...i think i did, but i got a B in language arts so ya never know

Alright, here's two units from both sides I think are useless.

Chaos: The chaos giant is a sad excuse for a giant, easily kited by fast ranged units, and not only that but I've heard shadowrath can just go behind the giant as its attacking, SURE it is meant to tank in damage to protect the units behind it, but they couldn't just make its attack a little faster so it can at least hit those fast units on time.

Order: The spearton, I believe these guys have become a bit obsolete to the swordwrath and archidon, they too are meant to tank in damage but what good is a tanker if it can't survive three swordwrath with rage.
