Whats the best spell caster / spell or your favorite spell caster / spell that you have used in an RTS Game?I think the Defiler from BW is one of the best spell casters in RTS Games. Unable to take damage from most attacks with Dark Swarm. Reduce Health down to 1 with Plague. And can recover all that energy with Consume. Shit is broken.
>>1872553Fun fact, the Defiler used to be a Flying unit in early design stages, which is why he is the only ground unit to have a looping "animation" unless you consider the Dragoon's spinning balls.
>>1872553"best" is probably something that's just a strong general unit with spells slapped on top, like the SC2 mothership or a hero from WC3/SoaSE."most fun" I would say cryocopter from RA3, it shrinks units. They get more speed, less damage and range, squeaky helium voices and they can be crushed by tanks.
>>1872553i agree. zerg OP
>>1872553Ghosts have stealth, lockdown and nuke.

>>1872708Indeed they do, and they're the single worst unit in the entire game.
>>1872553>Whats the best spell caster / spell or your favorite spell caster / spell that you have used in an RTS Game?The shaman in Populous:TB.Walking in to the enemy village, raising a volcano and raining down meteors is pretty kino. For extra luls cover their homes in poisons swamps and sink what remains in to the depths of the ocean.
>>1872630It also has everything for a projectile attack in the game files except the animation. Same as queen. High templar also has one but it is complete and disabled. Only Tassadar uses the animation, and the regular high templar's attack strength was supposed to be half of his. And if I'm not misremembering, science vessel has one as well.
>>1874403Personally I loved spamming the bridge spell to completely fuck up the geometry in their base and destroy their building for cheap while preventing any chance at reconstruction.Swamp was close second. Way too fucking overpowered.
>>1874569Science vessel was a ground unit too but we only have screenshots of that, so it is possible it was never finished as such. It had hilarious long legs. I didn't know it had a ranged attack but it'd make sense.

>>1875955I can find nothing about this, did you dream it?
I like the WC3 shaman because his hood is really cool
