All is forgiven for the countless poor matches. I just played a game and I can't stop laughing.
It was a standard 3v3 AMM, and all three of us were Orc. I figured this was a bad thing, since our opponents could easily exploit Orcs' primary weakness - bad AA - but one of my teammates had an interesting idea: Ward rushing. That is, all three of us pick up a Shadow Hunter with Serpent Ward, grab a Grunt or three, and run on down to the closest enemy. And the funny thing is, it worked!
We took Orange (Orc) by storm; we all ran in at about the same time (some stupid Creeps notwithstanding), and promptly started pumping Serpent Wards all over the place (which, at 30 Mana and only about an 8-second cooldown, is easy to do), and cackled gleefully as the other team tried to counter this. While they don't have much HP, we pretty much didn't have to worry about that, given the sheer number we had.
If I was able to find a decent FTP, I'd host the replay (among others), but since I don't have access to such a thing, I can't :(
