I voted for night elves because i like elves.I am an alf in every other game,if i can,that is.Also it is good that their building can move and attack and Illidan is my favorite charecter.The invisibility at night shouldn`t be underestimated either.

Unfortunately, True sight made it too difficult to use the Shadowmeld ability that well. You cant sit outside a base and wait because most bases have towers and ghouls which can see you.

If it werent for that fact, the nightelves would be first. Unfortunately, they are not, and the orcs won me out with the fact that they do damage, even if its only the buildings left, and you can pillage to get gold. :D

wen i forst played warcraft, well i was a little kid... and little kids like 2 be big kids! so i was orc crazy! but it all got boring as brute force tends 2 get a lil tedious...

now i am 100% elvish! i find the hit and run guerilla tactics (that as an orc player used 2 infuriate me) highly satisfying... like a bubbling brook slowly wearing away the hardest of rocks.. the forces of good- KICK ASS!!!!
Nothing to see here people... Just read the post and begone with you!

I quite like the detail of the undead, it has quite a few nice features in it...
The nightelves are probably too hit and run for me...though I haven't tried them out that much.

Its been a long while since I've touched Warcraft 3 and its expansion pack, the Frozen Throne but in my opinion, I prefer humans since they're pretty balanced and quite lethal too. :)

Got W3 only recently, and it has been so long when I played W2 last time that I was only able to form good opinion now...

I had actually quite hard time to choose between undeads and orcs. Undeads have those awesome spellcasters which are able to summon two skeletons from one corpse. With group of those spellcasters and few melee units which makes the first kill and you have an massacre going there... :D

On the other hand, orcs have better feeling. It somehow brings me back those good memories when I played W2 first time... Also, orcs have few units which I like, and especially the heroes are cool..

Eventually, I ended on choosing undeads, mostly because of their units.

It was a hard choice, I think Blizzard did a great job in making every race very balanced and fun to play. The Nigh Elves ended up being what I voted for, because the invisibility is cool and the Demon Hunter is probably my favourite hero. It was a close one though.

Blood Elves.

Though if we're sticking with the original W3 races, I thought that orcs had the best plot and characters. The demon hunter was the best hero class though...
