The thing that annoys me the most is that the first lineup is a walker's tankfest dream No flyers, no room for offensive tactics. I also really like the sprite as a swift no retaliation unit in earlygame and it has a beautiful design too.

verriker said: yeah, on second thought, I don't like the logistics of this vote very much
there's a really good faction in there somewhere between the three lineups, but the arrangements they've decided on all have major flaws for the reasons stated, either for reasons of aesthetics, or redundancy, or foreseeable balance, or the imposed Ashan garbage
so the result is we'll have a flawed lineup no matter what, all because of this design by committee, which sucks
Well I agree but then again could we agree what that perfect line-up is? Probably not.

We wouldn't even agree on disagreeing

Is the design anywhere to be seen?

Ubi really hit the nail on the head with this inititative, this whole "Sylvan option x is the best" argue is giving the community so much needed life 
Keep it strong, fellow Phoenix supporters!

I agree, I could be tempted to change my vote for the Fury line-up for that reason, but the Doe gives me trouble, the Blade Dancer doesn't tempt me a lot, and the Treant/Dragon combo doesn't sound like a perfect match for an offensive faction.

I couldn't agree more. This is probably the first time, I have the fire in myself to support something in Heroes (before, I only burnt to scrap/change some features)... however, I am starting to be quite undecided. I really liked the aggressive line-up, until I learnt about both dragon and treant being walkers... now I am starting to shift to the balanced phoenix-tree.

It's gonna be moonix if it happens guys. I don't think they would ever consider a fire creature as a part of Sylvan.

They wouldn't be so unwise to put two blue birds as champions for two factions... right? Nobody would be so... unwise...? Right?

For me, the number one choice would Be Fury but as that has no chance of winning anymore, I will have to go with Balance because, Strength just feels to much like H5 Sylvan, both Fury and Balance feel more fresh, and We seriously don't need another defencive faction, one with no flyers on top fo that.

Unicorns are not creatures of war, battle and bloodshed.
Earth's Perfect Balance all the way. best line up for cool sylvan.
also i think phoenix is a symbol or regenaration and reborning, isnt this is the core philosophy of nature? it fits prefectly, and if i call remember, phoenix is a prime energy crature, unlkie people think, they are not "fire bird". i think they will be redesigned with their looks to fit even better with slyvan.

It's actually already semi-confirmed.

Upgraded version at least is very likely to be, yes.

I voted Balance, though what I'd really prefer is to have the Treant (preferably H5 beta-style) and Phoenix be the Champions, and not have the Emerald Dragon.

So it all comes to these:
THE STRENGTH OF THE FOREST = two tank-walkers as champions + unicorn
EARTH’S PERFECT BALANCE = two blue birds as champions
SYLANNA'S FURY = two tank-walkers as champions + doe/deer
Suddenly I don't feel so enthusiastic about the voting anymore

The first line-up is silly: you have two entangling units already - so who would pick Treants over Dragons?
The 3rd is boring.
That leaves the Balance. No Unicorns, but who cares? A tough Champion pick, and with Emerald Knights probably an OP winner.
Plus, I would love to have snakes in.
Took me 5 seconds to decide.
