Dungeon seems the most powerful. They have no bad units, and their tier 2 and 3 alone can carry you through the game. Their faction ability is probably the weakest, but still alright.
Schism is definitely #2. A lot of powerful shooters and some really good faction laws. I haven't really used the summoning they've got much, but their faction ability is incredibly good. Having bonus units on each stack minimalizes your losses over the course of the entire game, and lets you snowball nicely.
Necropolis and Temple are both ok, but didn't feel as good.

Is it just me or is Daylight magic just way better than the others? Bless, Riposte, Arina's Touch and Radiant Armour are all fantastic, and it even has the strongest damaging spell for some reason - Judgement.

Ascension should be replaced by something that is relevant more often. It's too early to say if anything is too good or bad, but ascension sure is boring.

The stacking meta turns the PVE into the easiest shit to get figured out to a point I got bored and uninstalled the demo, it's in a dire need for a rebalance . I played on hard, then apocalypitic and all I had to do was to give all units to a single hero while the other ones were just there to scrape resources around the map. You get a guaranteed town portal, flight and dimension door spells, to not mention that ridiculous skill that allow you to transfer ALL UNITS garrisoned in town to your hero so it's not even a challenge anymore.
If you are playing necro, you also have the converter building to transform units from other faction into more undead, so by half of every game I was pressing auto on every battle without losing a single stack to even the strongest AI heroes and they don't have a chance of capturing a single town, since all you need to do is to portal then dimension door on their asses.
The PVP mode is going to be 100% esports garbage.
I did enjoyed the playeable heroes, but the whole game is braindead easy.

Fug... How did CPU even get this fat? I don't think I even fought too badly (although still pretty bad) in this fight. He just came here with double my forces. If not my tactic, is my strategy wrong? Should I adopt a different build order? Expand more aggressively through tougher neutrals stacks? Or, the opposite, play safer so I wouldn't lose too many units?

Thaumaturgy feels like a must have on every hero. Double casting and 10% spell point recovery per day are just too good to miss.
The Schism law that also gives 10% spell point recovery per day also feels a bit unfair.

I had a lot of fun with Schizos having 3 stacks of Fat bastards and 4 stacks of Chain mistresses. Sniping everything with web shenanigans and bopping everything that came even close. Absurdly broken.

UBISOFT IS GUILTY OF A NUMBER OF CRIMES:
1. Unfrozen discord child groomer and Russian draft dodger Denis Fedorov gets his hentai OCs "canonized" before Ubisoft sells this shit to Hooded Horse for a kickback, so Hooded Horse cuck CEO Tim Bender and his CCP bug hotwife can fully pivot to CCP funded gacha data farming the Asian market. I hope you like all your Heroes to be anime school girls. Sorry Slavs your time is done. Ubisoft was bailed out by Tencent. Heroes of Might and Magic? More like Heroes of Data Mining and Kompromat (hi Timmy Bender blackmailed by bugwife)
2. Hooded Horse is running a shitty gaslight (aka lying) campaign to get discord troons to buy this shit. See: the cat thing with the dildo on its forehead. Kittendildo, soon to be a Funko Pop exclusive Q1 2026!
3. They are begging you to call them faggots so they can blame this controlled demolition of the Might and Magic IP all on TOXIC COMMUNITY, in fact they already have. They are also literally shit eating faggots.
4. Unfrozen is not a studio, it's an agglomeration of disposable temps. Unfrozen CEO Denis Federov should be dying in Ukraine for Russia instead of commissioning tentacle rape porn OCs in troon color schemes.
5. Ubisoft never changes even if their fist is up Hooded Horse's ass for now. If you aren't old enough to understand how awful Ubisoft is, then you were probably molested by their employees on various discord servers. If you find yourself defending Ubisoft without financial compensation, please seek professional help immediately.
6. Ubisoft is now a Tencent/CCP subsidiary.

It seems to me that whether a faction is strong or not is almost entirely dependent on whether they have good T1/T2/T3 units for breezing through the early game with minimal loss. If we look alone at the T1/T2/T3 early game situation the ranking is Dungeon > Schism > Necro > Temple and coincidentally it's their ranking overall. The Dungeon situation is particularly broken, all you have to do is upgrade one unit (T2) and then all three can deal damage without retaliation.

Heroes of Rape and Sodomy: AIDS Erahttps://www.gamesindustry.biz/three-ubisoft-former-execs-found-guilty-of-sexual-and-psychological-harassment-given-suspended-sentencesFormer Ubisoft execs Thomas François, Serge Hascoët, and Guillaume Patrux have been given suspended prison sentences for sexual and psychological harassment.As reported by The Guardian, the trial – which began in June – saw an "overwhelming" amount of evidence of harassment against Ubisoft employees from the three former executives.During the trial, employees described the company's offices in Montreuil, Paris as being run "with a toxic culture of bullying and sexism".François, former vice president of editorial and creative services, received a three-year suspended sentence and fined €30,000 for sexual harassment, psychological harassment, and "an attempted sexual assault". He left Ubisoft in August 2020 following allegations of sexual misconduct.Former CCO Hascoët was found guilty of psychological harassment and "complicity in sexual harassment". He was given an 18-month suspended sentence and fined €45,000. Hascoët, who oversaw Ubisoft's editorial team, resigned in July 2020 following a number of accusations.Former game designer Patrux received a 12-month suspended sentence and fined €10,000 for psychological harassment.As reported by France24, lawyer for the civil parties affected Maude Beckers described the ruling as "a very good decision today, and for the future"."For all companies, it means that when there is toxic management, managers must be held accountable and employers can no longer let it slide."François, Hascoët, and Patrux were arrested by French police in 2023 – along with two other employees – following a year-long investigation. All three former executives denied the charges.
