Unit Strategy Review: How to use the Swog Rider

[MegaSilver]

Have any of you guys thought of using the Swog Rider as an assassin unit? Due to his high speed, medium attack, and low cost, he would be good at it.

Also, your opponent wouldn't even expect you to use him as such, so he could be under the radar until you are ready to rush him in to kill that last unique squad member or cheap hero.

Isn't that what the whole strategy review was about, using them as assassins?

Anyway, you should create a diversion so you can sneak the swog rider around back and assassinate them. This will be great if you can move a tank up and keep the x on it to keep the opponent worrying. I'm sure they would go for the tank because it would be way more important than a silly 25pt swog rider.

What I meant was using them as assassins without any other orcs on the battlefield.
