Human Knights, Undead Abominations, Night Elf Bears, or Orc Taurens.īuild: Death Coil-Unholy Aura-Death Coil-Unholy Aura-Death Coil-Animate Dead-Unholy Aura-Death Pact-Death Pact-Death Pactĭreadlord are sometimes used against Undead players. Animate Dead is more of a situational move, you should only use this when there are corpses of powerful units on the ground, e.g. Death Pact is OK, but is shadowed by the uberity of Death Coil and Unholy Aura.
The Death Knight is generally used as the first hero because a) Death Coil heals your troops, (but unlike the Human Paladin's Holy Light, it can be used against most enemies as a nuke spell) b) Unholy Aura is often considered the best aura overall because it boosts rushing speed and healing speed, and also stacks with other Heal Over Time, and c) he rides a goat.
