Lamest Tinker Strat Ever.

Thank you for posting this interesting replay.

Clearly, this human player was trolling throughout the game. He was carrying out an experiment; and unfortunately, you were the guinea pig. I'll have to admit that he almost outwitted and outplayed you.

It appeared as if he only wanted to use dragonhawk riders along with his Tinker hero to destroy your expos and main base. If you noticed, he hired a mercenary unit to rejuvenate his tinker from damage. Also, a sorceress was created to make his Tinker invisible prior to harassing your expos. After his gold mine was drained, he didn't even bother to create an expo because he became too overconfident in his strategy. I guess he wanted to boost his ego even more if he defeated you without even attempting to expo at some point.

Here is my advice for you:
1) Do not ever create hippos against dragonhawk riders. They can move navigate the air just as fast; thus, they generally avoid any damage from them. Plus, aerial shackles is so powerful (30 damage per second).
2) You should take note that in the case where you might have air units that are being shackled by dragonhawks, you can cast the Dark Ranger's silence on them to disrupt the channeling effect of that spell. I noticed that you had the Dark Ranger during this game; however, you did not cast it on the dragonhawks.
3) The best anti-air unit for this situation were archers; as they only take 65% damage from dragonhawks and have much better range. Further, I would upgrade the armor for archers.
4) I would have hired the Alchemist as the third hero instead of the Naga. Use the Alchemist to cast Acid Bomb on the dragonhawks/Tinker and you would have owned them really fast by lowering their armor.
