Unit Counters
I usually find it hard to counter certain units, specifically goblins and stuff. Can anyone help me out with a list of unit counters?

Cats > Clocks, I think... splash hits most of them, and thats it (maybe)
Air > Shredders...
Shredders > casters, weak melee masses (e.g. arach/druid summons)
Clocks > casters, meatwall (suicide)
Correct me if I'm wrong (hey, havent played for some months, and even before I prefered leaving this stuff to others)

Counter melee with casters
Counter air with a blend of archer and caster
Counter siege with melee
Counter preists/trickers/lost soul with archers
Counter druids with archers or goblin tanks
Counter shadowdancers with most units
Counter gasts with any goblin tower
Counter goblin tanks with seige
While it does seem like a nice counter that seige can't attack air, while air can attack seige, but really it's overrated, it may as well be that neither can attack each other, since Warcraft 3's or I should say Blizzard's attack priority goes to anything that can attack it. Meaning all ranged units must be eliminated for them to even attack their seige. ^_^

Air is not the counter to shredders since they go right over them since they are magic immune if I remember right.
Line 'em up.

Shredders are mechanical, but not magic immune. Some spells hit mechanical, others don't.jamn455 wrote:Air is not the counter to shredders since they go right over them since they are magic immune if I remember right.
I could be remebering wrong, but I think that attack is specificly restricted to buildings.Dont do dragons also have a normal attack?

Actually, all of the air Tower Spawns have normal damage type for their second attack, and same with the basic casters.
Note: I finally entered the Undead mercinaries, also added and entered goblin+murloc spawn tower units. So feel free to use those for debate. ^_^
