I found that the Beastmen one wasn't really a doomstack but more of a cheese stack. I mean sincerely, who the hell will waste so many time trying to recruit that many of shamans to put them all together into one army?! To me the Mammoth doomstack is the actual first one because it isn't made of cheese and a super weird and inflexible way to approach the campaign.

@fourcgames7568

The mammoth stack is impressive not gonna lie. Although it is pretty much hard countered by a legendary hero of the Wood Elves called Legolas. Legolas has "The elven agility" ability, allowing him to essentially hijack a mammoth, turn the mammoth against its allies and then shoot it through the head to get rid of it. So he can basically get rid of multiple mammoths at once with this ability. Unfortunately for him, that still only counts as one, so the game will tell you that he only killed one. And one other op thing about him is that whenever he fights close to any dwarf he will activate his "Overcompetitive Elf Boi" passive, causing him to move 100% faster to get more kills than any dwarf in his close proximity. Truly op hero.. He needs some nerfs to be honest.

A lot of you are disagreeing with his list because you're like "Ay, but a stack of X can beat a stack of Y." This isn't a list of the strongest doomstack in a doomstack versus doomstack situation. This is a list of the strongest doomstacks for steamrolling the campaign map, thats why things like the stegadons are so high--being able to fully heal your army between every battle just lets you lightning strike that friggin 8 full 20 stacks of dwarves thorgrim sends at you every campaign without breaking a sweat and with only a single army, in a single turn. It's not about how well a doomstack does fighting against a particular other doomstack, but how well a doomstack performs at pulling more then it's weight's worth on the campaign map.

For someone looking for a Dark Elf doomstack, Morathi performs and works very similarly to the Beastmen. Shroud is -10 leadership in the province, couple it with a Kharybdiss howl for -8 and the -10 from fear and a a nice Doom and Darkness cast and you will route most armies on contact. Confederate Malus for his -7 in the same province and one of his followers for an additional -10 and now nothing can fight you, with the bonus of you have the Dark Elf economy instead of Beastmen or Lizards.

I have actually found a Dark Paladin Doomstack with Malus quite effective, especially against the dwarfs. I was able to take out Ungrim and Grombrindal at the same time, with their late game armies, in the same battle, on legendary. I would call that effective.

Legend doesn't like dragons in general, they're slow, big hitboxes, breath attacks need micro management and such reasons i heard from him in previous streams. But he did say that they're really strong and will win most fight. Personally, i think it's a fun doomstack for high elves in the late game when you're bored of sister of avelorn.

I remember fighting a doomstack of warmammoths from norsca. It was tough taking them down because they wrecked one of my towns but I managed to get gelt with halbediers and hand gunners into the town in the wasteland. ( this eas before they made the change in the update.) They assaulted the walls, half of the mammoths were weakened from an earlier battle but they managed to get inside. I clogged the whole entry with the halbadiers and kept focus fire with my hand gunners. It was a tough fight but aftwr the enwmy lord was killed and half of the war mammoths were gone or routed the battle was over. That was one of the toughest fights that I remember facing. I just hope I don't have to deal with that again.

Wait, so you mentioned in your video, that a mammoth can easily kill a unit of phoenix guard. Now a while ago I praised phoenix guard, because it was the only unit which managed to fully brace against a mammoth charge and take close to no casualties, whilst fully killing it (Tbf I don't play on Legendary and it was my phoenix guard against the enemy mammoth) Maybe somethings have changed since then, but for me phoenix guard did great against mammoths. Edit: No Sister of Averlorn Doomstack? That was surprising....

One on One is different from stack to stack. A mammoth can't stun lock a unit of phoenix guard but 5-6 of them would stun lock and charge through 5-6 PG units. Once in melee, due to wide area of attack and disruption, the 18 mammoths simply hit and push the guards away most of the time before they have any chance to deal damage.

1 the Ai is dumb 2 when you rool eith a doomstack of mamoths you will never fight a full stack of phoenix guard 3 it's about what performs better for you not agains you, like ye maybe a full stack of phoenix gard could beat a mammoth stack but you would do much better with a mammoth stack youself because mammoths are much better in a siege agains other mele infantry and agains missiles. It'd like you would say criptonite is the best because it beats supermen but in fact criptonite is useless agains anything but supermen.

i think these are pretty poor doom stacks made from one unite. First off all chaos can get a doomstack of heavy infantary way earlier in the game, by turn 15-20 that beats everything it meets... most of these are only available late game, they are also super expensive, and not really much stronger or more versitle. they all have massive weaknesses. At that point in the game you might as well mix in some other units. There is very little value in running these setups.

@@waldemarmarwalde6817 I've played all difficulties. Im not sure how you think that matters? Unless you're saying on easy this is a perfect strategy. Im not saying you can't use these stacks, I'm saying at the point on the game where you can build and afford these stacks you can get better doomstacks by taking more variation, and if you want a 1 unit stack you should go chaos, because that heavy infantry will win any siege or open battle and can be build by turn 15. All these armies have clear weaknesses, or struggle taking forts.
