I think I just had one of the most annoying games I've ever had.

The map was Plunder Isle, I was elf, he was undead. I start off by trying to hero rush but he somehow upgraded his hall even before I got my hero there, so then it started to shoot mucus at my hero so I had to contain him until I got ballistae. When I got a ballista, I notice he has 3 or so gargoyles, and I've only got 1 dryad. So then I have an enjoyable 10 minutes chasing his gargoyles around. While he's pissing me off he stops making gargoyles and makes mass ghouls which kill most of my archers/drayds(I made too many because it was pissing me off so much) So then after about 5 minutes of that I kill his hero a couple of times using entangle+burn. At this stage I've got an exp and he doesn't, so he starts trying to expand. Then this is the bit I actually started to enjoy, I destroyed his base with ballistae while he was trying to exp( he couldn't tp because I killed his hall by then) Once I finished his base I found what was left of his army. a DK and only about 10 ghouls, Right when I was about to kill his hero the box that says 'waiting for host' came up.
I knew that it was my isp that cut me off I pressed disconnect so I could still save the replay.

That was the most annoying, crappest game I've ever played. All that just to get a d/c when he has only a half built gold mine left.

Undead are a pain, they can do too much things that piss me off and still get away with a win.

12 units is good for Micro managing.

The reason you can only select 12 units is because blizzard added it to make another part of the game harder, requiring the better players to have even better micromanagement.

before i stopped playing i did this.... it was killer. i got a halls so fast, could build 2 heroes almost consecutively. then i'd expand.

it wasn't a well-known strat at the time... :p
