2 archers < 1 alba. Multiply and it'll still be the same. Problem?

I was just asking ^^

-_- No they don't. They have similar range, though archers MAY outrange them a bit, but even so, it's not easy to kill 20 albas with 40 bows. Also, if you want to argue, show me a replay where 2 archers kill one bow. It's possible, but show me. Then I'll accept the point. Also, the alba has Blazing Bolt.

You'll have to wait. I can't play.

no need to hurry ^^ we are young, so you can take enought time.... but plz dont take to long ^^

yes in 'long' games they easy to beat but at 'short' games they can be deadly mainly because archidons have fast training as well as long range and their ability to kite if u have no ranged units ur doomed so watch out!

Albowtrosses have 2 bars of health, which is twice as many as an archidon, but albowtrosses have armour, so archidon arrows do a little less than half damage (I think) to albowtrosses. Albowtrosses also have constant blazing bolts, which increases their damage. So I think that albowtrosses, would beat the archidons.

HOWEVER, archidonis have range with an extra few feet, so potentially, if the archidon user was good enough, they could consistently keep archidons out of albowtross range, while still firing, allowing them a victory with little to no losses. But if there was no micro involved, the albowtrosses have a large advantage with armour and passive blazing bolts.

Just mass speartons and then get a magikill. Works every time for me, because even if the opponent kites, the speartons will hold out long enough to get to the base and destroy the statue.

EDIT: Oh yeah and once the opponent is trapped and tries to fight, the magikill can CREAM those archidons.

Hehe...you should be surprise now: I made a match against myself and did 40 archidons against 20 albows....with out any upgrades....and you know: THE ARCHIDONS WON!!! There were 10 archidons alive after the masacre... and I didnt target anyone, just clicked at "attack buttom" and watched...and I think, when abilities and micro were allowed, archidons would win anyways...Why? Fire arrows have more range, so use fire arrows, then retreat, wait till fire arrows reload and then use again ^^ the only problem is the map size: On long map, 40 archidons beat 20 albows with upgrades.....on short, albows would win....but I dont think the enemy could get albow faster then archidons on short maps.....

But, practically, you wouldn't get 20 albows to counter the archidons.

Archidon has a 15 second build time. I THINK albowtross has a 30 second build time. So build times are somewhat equivalent, however an albowtross is 450 gold and 200 mana, while an 2 archidonis are 600 gold, which one gets built faster is really dependant on how your miners are set up.

nah albows have a 24 second build time.

the problem is also the mana.... so you could only use albows on mid game I think... whle archidons are also famouse on early games ^^
