Notes

• Baron Rivendare excels at commanding the map by summoning skeletons and producing mages, making him a perfect choice for beginners who seek strong map control and resource security.
  Chill of the Grave is the best talent, transforming the skeletons he periodically summons into mages rather than warriors, making them ranged instead of melee units. Minis must close the gap before dealing damage to these mages, who can attack while the gap is closing, giving them an advantage.
• Bloodmage Thalnos is a potent unit, celebrated for his potent AoE damage and long-range attacks, though his vulnerability in PvP situations makes careful positioning crucial.
  Dominance is the sole worthwhile talent.
• Cairne Bloodhoof 's high health and Horde unit buff offers some survivability but can be costly to deploy and is easily countered, with room for improvement if more powerful Horde units become available in the future.
  Cairne has two excellent talents in Reincarnation and Plainsrunning. The superior choice is usually Resurrection, as it allows for resurrection at 50% health after death, making it a valuable talent.
• Charlga Razorflank is not recommended for beginners due to her complex ability, and while she can have strong starts, her effectiveness diminishes later in the game, potentially leading to challenging situations, particularly given the restrictions and skill required to play her deck effectively.
  Cavernous Mists is the top talent choice, as it reduces the deploy cost by 1, which synergizes well with her ability.
• General Drakkisath is an excellent choice for countering elemental decks and specific elemental stages due to his elemental resistance ability, making him a go-to leader for those situations, but his specialization may not be the best fit for beginners as it can limit deck-building options.
  Chromatic Scales is the best talent choice, as it grants nearby allies the Resistant trait, which is highly effective when facing elemental damage.
• Grommash Hellscream 's Bloodlust Trait enhances the speed of nearby units, while his AoE talents and high health pool establish him as a strong leader, especially for beginners, though he may have some limitations in later stages of the game.
  Savage Strikes is the best talent option, dealing double damage to enemies below 50% health. It's somewhat situational, but the additional damage is worthwhile. Alternatively, you could choose "Bladestorm" for crowd control.
• Hogger 's outstanding attributes, including high attack, health, and the ability to boost his maximum health, establish him as a robust frontline unit, highly favored by players for his versatility and adaptability.
  Ham Hock is the best talent, which boosts his HP by 10% each time he is deployed, which synergizes with his movement and attack speed scaling, making him progressively tankier and more challenging to eliminate as the game advances.
• Jaina Proudmoore 's effectiveness is limited by the need to restrict deck building, her squishiness, and the prevalence of backline killers, making her an okay but not top-tier choice, particularly since her elemental damage isn't always necessary in the current meta, and there are better all-round leaders available.
  Blink is the best talent option, as it periodically teleports Jaina away from attackers, providing her with a form of survivability, which is important due to her squishy nature.
• Maiev Shadowsong 's mastery of stealth and battlefield control, along with her Alliance synergy, makes her a strategic asset, but her non-beginner-friendly playstyle may require skillful timing for optimal results.
  Enveloping Shadows is the best talent choice, casting Smoke Bomb on deploy and stealthing nearby allies, which can be powerful when used and timed correctly, offering strategic advantages. Alternatively, you can opt for "Relentless" for a simpler gameplay experience.
• Old Murk-Eye stands out as a formidable choice, offering ranged AoE damage, Tidehunter support, and high mobility, though his intricate playstyle may pose challenges for beginners, earning him a spot in the B-tier.
  Marathon of the Murlocs is the top talent choice, as it extends the duration of March of the Murlocs by an additional 5 seconds after deploying. This allows you more time to deploy minis, making it somewhat easier to maximize his ability.
• Rend Blackhand 's abilities, cost reduction for flying troops, and proficiency in countering melee units make him an excellent choice for beginners looking to build a strong flying team with the added advantage of being a flying AoE unit.
  Scale and Steel is the best talent choice, granting Resistance while Flying and Armored while dismounted, which enhances Rend's tankiness and durability.
• Sneed 's tankiness, siege potential, and objective-pushing abilities were once top-tier, but a recent nerf, capped levels from Land Grab, and his high cost have lowered his status to the B-tier.
  Mine is Money, Friend! is the best talent choice, granting the Miner trait, which allows Sneed to act like a kobold, efficiently mining resources and opening chests.
• Sylvanas Windrunner offers versatility with various deck options, but her reliance on specific strategies and the need for a protective tank or unique playstyle make her less suitable for beginners, despite her potential for value through spawning a banshee on death, particularly excelling in PvP with a split-lane pushing deck featuring Gargoyle and Necromancer.
  Black Arrow is best talent option, allowing you to pierce through enemies in a line and deal Elemental damage, making it an excellent crowd control talent, particularly valuable on maps with bridges, narrow tunnels, and passages.
• Tirion Fordring stands out as an excellent leader choice for beginners, thanks to his healing abilities, synergy with starter units like the Gryphon Rider and S.A.F.E. Pilot, making him a wise and reliable option.
  Divine Shield is its best talent, adding significant survivability, allowing him to tank a substantial amount of damage for 5 seconds while simultaneously healing.
