It seems Inferno is more popular than we thought. Still, it's gonna take a snowload of luck to actually win this. I don't think we will, but we can give them a hell of a fight.
Isn't that the Demon's way of doing things?

If my hypothesis is correct, all the factions will have baseline ranged troops as their default unit.
Answer me honestly, folks: which would you rather have hundreds of in your army?
A bunch of cloak-and-dagger crossbow-wielding dark elf Assassins?
OR
A bunch of sexy, fireball-throwing Succubi?

If the ice naga/medusa doesn't work out could we still get the H3 basilk please! Elite basilk with stone gaze would be awesome ESPECIALLY if the stonegaze was a ranged attack like for the H4 medusa.

Well, athough I must admit, I like the Succubus art as a representation of Inferno but sorry, I prefer Dark Elves.

Well i still think these votes were poorly picked. It should have been Dungeon vs Sylvan and Inferno vs Fortress.
That way Dwarves would have had some chances and Dungeon vs Sylvan would be pretty much tied up.
Fortress vs Sylvan was really unfair of ubisoft. I dont know what they were thinking.
why choose between two kinds of elves when you can have BOTH 
and if Medusas were in the dungeon lineup *.* just put an ugly dark elf chick covered in feathers with strike and return too and I'd have my two favorite units from H3

I really like both factions. I played Inferno a lot in H5 and a lot of Dungeon too. It would be fun to play a "chaotic" faction, so if they make Inferno like that I'd love it. No we don't need another "rush-in-your-face" faction any more. But one race, Inferno notable, could have randomized effects. I'd love to summon some Demons by sacrificing an Imp for example, and the Demon might come with 2 abilities taken randomly. Or have spells randomly (rarely) cost more with more powerful effects. Those would make memorable fights, that is the kind of faction I want.
As for Dungeon I really like the creature line-up. If we have Hydras, Witches, Black Dragons.. All those that make you "WOW" at the battlefield. Hopefully that is. And I have always loved the Dark Elves in Warhammer and in Forgotten Realms. A society that is pretty messed up
So I really need more info before I vote, but to be honest I want them both!

race to replace the sanctuary and as a fraction of 6 instead of 2 bidders
6 fraction must be predators (sanctuary) then only the dungeon and demons, and all you can do as a race for which you can not play.
that's my opinion! fraction of predators should look like this: lizardmen, kappa, jellyfish, basilisk, Naga, Nix (Triton) and hydra, coatl (snake bird)
if there is an error then I'm sorry I'm using my program translator

you didn't understand again?
The vote is there just to give the community the feelings that they can choose.... to please the fans.
And i shall stake my life on it... Ubi had already chosen the 2 factions that we are voting.
Illusion's vote that's MAGIC!

Could work, but it could also be another pokemon metronome.. where the majority of the possible random picks are bad choices. I guess it requires careful handling.

It was 44% yesterday, now it's 43%
Sigh... This voting is even worse cause it feels close yet you know somehow Inferno wont win anyway in the end.
It's Black Dragon's and nostalgia's fault.

i'm going to wear my tin-foil cap once again and I'm just gonna do the conspiracy talk.
As, I think that, fury was pushed (awesome new detailed artwork for blade dancer,bland and used artowrk for others) the same way dungeon will be pushed. For now the votes favor it, but even if the percents were reversed I guarantee you that dungeon would still win.
not in the face, it's my moneymaker. punch anywhere else you want.

Well I was agreeing with you when you said hate was wrong.
I hope you will understand nostalgia when the game you love so much changes in drastic ways again.
As for Black Dragons, I see some problem here, they are very iconic, no need to argue on that.
Reading most of your posts, it looks like you dislike a lot of core aspects of the franchise so, I've been wondering, what is it that you like regarding HoMM ?

To me it's that I like Pit Lord more than Black Dragons. I don't think I have creatures that I dislike, but when comparing them I sure have my preferences.

There wasn't a consensus even within Ubi. I wanted Strength, some of my colleagues were for Balance or Fury...
We just happened to have an unused Blade Dancer concept art from a past project that wouldn't actually led to be sued by Games Workshop, so we used it. I don't think one single artwork can have that much of an impact anyway. Especially considering the big label indicating H7 Bade Dancer might not even look like that. (Of course, that would imply people actually read the texts...)
I think it's more likely most fans just liked the H5 Sylvan and wanted something similar. That's life.
Now don't get me wrong, I can live with Fury. I think the Stags will be pretty cool. The only line-up I didn't really like was Balance.

i hate but i don't vote against it. i vote FOR my preference which is inferno. If i didn't care about inferno that much,but i was voting it for the dungeon to fail, that would be the other kind of hate(sabotage).
i understand nostalgia,thank you very much, i am a "veteran" player too.
And because i understand it, i want to reminisce on more stuff when i'm forty, than ONE black dragon, as dungeon goes.
The beholders,minotaurs and manticores came back. I'd rather see the dragon as a boss now, and have a powerful faceless angel as a champion.
if the previous creatures didn't return i would go for the black dragon too.(like in H5).
The fact that it is iconic doesn't mean i have to see it in the line up, and it's not the only iconic creature ever created on this galaxy for this partcular game.
Neither it will be the worst thing ever happened in this word if the black dragon sits this one out. for once...

LOL. So even you didn't like Balance. Was it really that bad?
Just out of curiosity, which one do you like best from these two now, Dungeon or Inferno?

How so ? I really loved this lineup, its major drama was missing Unicorns, imo.
