User commentary

[Show user commentary] [Hide 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.
