Magic is better than Might
At least that's my opinion. Of course, at the beginnig of a scenario it's harder to fight with magic say, a pack of zealots, but fighting with level 5 spells against a might hero... he's dead and buried.

Favourite heroes:
Might - Gelu
Magic - Dracon
Yeah, I know they are campaign heroes, but they are so much more powerful than the normal ones. I edited Gelu into some normal single scenario maps and even the impossible difficulty becomes easy, especially if i'm playing castle because I can get archers on the first or second day. Cheers.

1. MIGHT HERO.
No doubt Gelu is the best Might hero, but since he's a campaign hero, I call using him in single scenarios CHEATING (but sometimes it's a great pleasure to see how your weak foes are smashed by a wave of sharpshooters' arrows ).
And without Gelu, I like Bron. He's good because he starts with several Basilisks (ususally something about 7). This is very good in the start of the game. Also, these Basilisks are an important part of the Fortress' army.
2. MAGIC HERO.
Well, I like two magic heroes best: Solmyr and Thant. With Solmyr you will have a good start, his Chain Lightning does a lot of damage even with the initial spell power, and it will be very useful when smashing wandering monsters. Thant is good for his Animate Dead: no loses even with the initial force. I like them both.

I do use magic a lot, but I never choose a magic hero. I chose one in between like Gundula who is essentially a might hero with enough magic skills to cast spells like mass slow, mass haste, or mass cure which will cure my characters of any bad spells that my magic opponent cast. Simple spells that work very well with might-based strategies. This balances out nearly every advantage of a magic-based hero, because often times if you can take away your opponents spells, your creatures will be stronger than their creatures and you will win easily.
