What Creature in H4 do you hate profusely?
I hate Sprites and Pixies. In www.mmportals.com Sprites got rated the best Level 1 unit. What is up with that? I mean it's a freakin girl in a butterfly suit! It's somehow more powerful than a squire or a bandit? I mean it's ridiculous!
I'm not a sexist. (or male chauvenist pig, I'm a goodpig)
Because if it was a male in a butterfly suit I'd even be more angry!
Anyway do you have a creature that you hate like this?

For me, it has gotta be the zombie, then the mummy. They both suck badly and are slow.

YUP!
The peasants are useless even though they have the taxpayer ability. But I think they are somewhat improved since heroes 3 where they had 1 HP 1 ATTACK 1 DEF. and so on.
I hated the imps most on HMM3, but they have definately improved over the years. Now they're fast (not furious) but their mana leech is super-useful. Especially when facing Angels and others who have just enough spell points to make use of their abilities.
Generally, I think that most SLOW units suck, so the leprechauns and

Well I don't like the Lep's, also don't like the champions from the Haven town.
This might be a bit off topic, but has anyone else noticed that when you put a bunch of those peasents in your garrison that they stop giving you money? Or at least they are no longer counted on the Kingdom overview screen. The same goes with your Lord heroes.

Anyway were there in general any creature that you remembered from H3 or H2 that didn't make it and you wished they had?
Or maybe they were included but were a disapointment?

The creature I hate most is the orc. The short range penalty kills off any usefullness of their ranged ability. Plus, orcs are too slow to be put into any army since they'll reduce movement. Even their number of shots is cut down. Chaos can get medusas quickly, whose speed is pretty good, has infinite shots, and can petrify.
As for creatures who didn't make it... I miss the druids from 1 and 2. They added more ranged to the Sorceress army, and were really powerful... The mighty gorgon, too.
And disappointments, that award goes to the Devils. They just aren't as good, in my opinion. I think they got toned down too much...

slow orcs...
orcs are sure slow, but their inclusion wont slow down the army, because they are just as slow as medusa. and medusi WILL BE IN anyway (because they kill).

Without a doubt, the most hateful creature would be the orcs. The only and ONLY use they have, is when you have that sniper's crossbow or when they're on towers and even then they're only just average.
Even leprechauns are better. They can cast fortune on your troops and a great for a druid. Summon 'em and get 50% extra defense, not to mention a retal-soaker.

Amen to that! Same thing with Cyclops, I hardly never attack them until month 2 or something.
But they rock when they're on your side, though...

Most Despised
I have to disagree with those who throw the orcs in this category. A large stack of orcs (easily assembled) with Precision cast upon them can be deadly and usually aren't targeted by the AI.

Orcs are alright when they are on that tower thing when they defend the castle.
