Troglodytes are among the weakest creatures in the game, even being upgraded. Moreover, they have low speed and slow down a hero on the adventure map. However, their immunity to Blind is a significant advantage which makes harder for an enemy hero to resurrect or animate their entire army, as other Dungeon units are not that weak and slow (therefore you have to kill Troglodytes before someone else, then blinding the last standing enemy).
