Although the in-game description of the specialty states, ''"based on hero level compared to the level of the target unit"'', the hero's level has no effect on the specialty.

{{user commentary|
Haste is very useful spell for offense oriented factions like stronghold. Units with low health and defense are much more effective, because they can strike first and at much greater distance. This is great for fragile units like wolf raiders. Haste is also useful for slow units, because they can be in the middle of the map (or close to enemy casters and archers) much faster.

'''Changed turn order for Terek:'''
* Now: [[Wolf Raider]]s will go right after the [[Thunderbird]]s, and then it is the [[Hobgoblin]]s turn.
* Before: [[Ancient Behemoth]]s go second followed by the [[Cyclops King]]s (Need to place the Cyclops Kings above the Wolf Raiders for this to work).
This is somewhat less good if you need to strike immediately:
* Wolf Raiders are fragile (but deal a tremendous amount of damage), so they should never attack first if there will be retaliation.
* Hobgoblins can also deal out a lot of damage but are fragile as well.
* Only the Thunderbirds go before Wolf Raiders and Hobgoblins, so at least one of the two "fragile" stacks will get a retaliation if there is one.
* This may protect your Behemoths, but leads probably to more losses on your side.
* Without Terek, you can always strike first with your Ancient Behemoths to protect the Wolf Raiders and the Cyclops Kings can weaken a stack for the Hobgoblins.
If you wait with all your creatures in the first round, then this new order is a lot better:
* Wolf Raiders and Hobgoblins now go second and third-last.
* Without Terek they would go before your Behemoths.
