Alright...I just finished a game against Ginkgo where I seemed destined to lose.

I was pretty behind the whole game, and I got into a position where I was able to mez one of my own knights and one of his pyros, a knight, and his LW. I don't remember how it progressed exactly...but he picked off all but one of my witches, a knight, my LW a assassin and my cleric. All this time he kept moving people near my enchantress and I mezed them, forming a wall of his guys around me. I would keep my enchantress healed with my cleric and try to pick off whatever guys he had left with my wtich and assassin. I managed to kill his Cleric and both my witch and assassin get killed, leaving me with my cleric, a knight, enchant, and LW. Meanwhile he has 2 knights, a scout, a pyro, an assasin, a witch, and an LW.

The only thing that saved me was I had all but his knight Mezed in a wall totally surrounding my enchantress. His fatal mistake was he put his witch into a position where she could've killed my enchantress and damaged a few of his own guys...but instead opted to kill my scout who was in the process of attacking his cleric. I mezed her and finished off the cleric with my assassin before she was killed.

I thought he had won when he moved his knight(his only mobile character) over and killed my cleric...but I guess since I still had a usable character on the field, the enchantress, that i was still in the game.

In the end there was nothing he could do but kill one of his own characters in a desperate bid to get to my enchant...but I mezed him when he did this and won.

Sorry about how long this post is....but it was a damn funny game that I by all rights should've lost, but thanks to my enchant and a few bad moves on his part I won.

PS-the opponent is NOT a newb...I believe his record is 57-15 while mine is 46-17

that's why enchantress is the best unit in the game

I disagree.
the scout is the best character
the enchantress is the second best.

I also disagree. The Witch is the best, followed by the Enchantress, then the Scout.

You're all wrong.

1. Cleric
2. Scout
3. Knight
4. Assassin
5. Enchantress
6. Witch
6. Lightning
7. Pyro

sigh...whatever :P the enchantress sucks when against someone who watches out for it.

I put the lightning on it's own level... it's good for something entirely different than pure damage. It's a deterrent and a damage absorber. Enemies just dont romp through the territory, the damage is just a nice side effect.

I also hold the witch above the enchantress, though i agree, I would take out an enchantress that had a good move option first (unless i had a counter) and the witch second.

I think witches are overated. Sure they do good damage, but they die real fast too. And their special skill is weakened by a cleric. An enchantress helps even when hiding behind other units.
