Name the 3 best summoned units and explain why (based on mana cost or hp otr attack damage or durability...)
Neutral heroes summoned units are also included.

1. Mini Tauren lvl 3
2. Mini Tauren lvl 2
3. Mini Tauren lvl 1

water ele quilbeast lava imba

Infernal, Spirit of Vengance and Phoenix !

quil beast is best imo :P low mana you can summon 3 with frenzy :>

H2O aka Water Tauren

moonfire is right, but not ultimate, hawk lvl 3 is the best

quil beast and feral spirits

pig and hawk :)

Blademaster

just not funny!

Infernal for sure.

There are still some Sleeplord players on Bnet (vs Elf). I always try to beat them before this bastard reaches lvl6. But UD Base + T3 Solo-Hero-Exp-Bonus is a bitch.

Quilbeast lvl 3 - highest dps in game.

your wrong, the highest dps summon(s) is spirit wolf(s)

Edit: @ Teo

Okay, you could be on to something, but here are the facts:

Raging quillbeast:
42 attack / 1.5 sec cooldown = 28 DPS

Shadow wolf:
21.5 attack / 1 sec cooldown = 21,5 DPS

However:
Quill: Frenzy + 40% att speed for 20 sec, 30 sec cooldown: on average: 2/3 of the time it will have +40%:
28 * 1/3 + 28 * 1,4 * 2/3 = 35,466~ DPS

Wolves 20% critical (x2 damage):
0.8 x 21.5 + 0.2 x 43 = 25,8 DPS

But, you have 2 wolves = 51,6 DPS

But, you can have up to 3 quills, with ranged attack and splash!

But, wolves are invisible etc...

The decision is yours of course :)

Water tauren, coz u can cr8 3 of them, and ur mana regenerates in 1 min, coz of uber aura

water tauren lvl3>wolves lvl3>quill lvl3

wolves lvl3 are fucking imba, thank god noone plays farseer anymore! fast attack, much damage, critical strike, invisible while moving and relatively much hp and 2 for 75 mana o_O
but water tauren is still better.

all agree except Inferno...coz i think Doom is much better,usage in battle...you can kill frost wyrm and you got hell of unit DoomGuard ,he can also cast spells & attack air units!

but you can have 12 treants at one time, and it allows you to cut down trees! But yes, they mostly are shit imo, even tho they get +5 armor when upgrading movespeed at buildings.

that little pig that beastmaster summons whats it's name again??? yeah now I remember SPIDER PIG!!!

water elemental is insane :(

the bear is also really nice at level 2/3 but it has a long cd and cost mass mana so bm cant spam them like am can spam WE : (

Quilbeast lvl 3 -,- splash, frenzy, longe range attack (WE's only 300), 75 mana cost and you can have 3.

WE lvl 3 - Although not as much damage output, movespeed and range as the quilbeast and lava spawn it has the healthpoints to make up for it.

Bear 3 - This would be the best summon if you could actually have enough mana to always have 2 bears. The bash and HP are just insane and the blink is an extra bonus to chase units.

Spirit Wolves lvl 3 - Although not the greatest fighters, for 75 mana you have two late game worker-raping, expand stoping fellows to do the dirty deed.

depends on the situation.
For an early rush I'd favor LavaBrute.
For Creeping activities and early battles I'd use Waterelementels.
For later usage when players have quiet big armies. Spiritwolves for some bad harassment and scouting duties.

Minions need a duration nerf at least, they last far too long. Also think it's kinda weird that they have fast speed..

well I once had a game with human vs undead and played pitlord only.. finaly quit some time in the game the gold mines run out.. and the undead had quiet some destroyers left.. Im without a really army, especially not against air.. but hey, Doom works on Destroyer, won me the game ;D since then I love pitlord

Demon Hunter.

water elemental for sure; hawk lvl 3 is usually better than quillspike lvl 3 anyway

I think clockwerk goblins from the goblin factory are the best non ultimate summons, if you can't run away from them. lev 3 goblin factory with lev 3 engingeering upgrade creates a ton of mini-ghouls that explode and deal 80 splash on death. They work great versus buildings aswell, which most of the other summons don't.

ANd oh, to those saying that quilbeasts aren't very good, let's not forget that they actually deal splash damage at level 3, and not just little.

of course quillbeasts deal a lot of damage but spirit hawk is, at least imho, much more useful. it won't be as good as a quill against gargoyles but it can harass and scout and sometimes win attrition wars by itself and in late game you can't really rely on quills alone to beat air

Yes it can be really amazing, the hawk, but it also is very easily killed with dispell or piercing/magic damage. It totally owns non-t3 burrows and so but it's as said so vulnerable, and it has a really long cooldown, so you can only have 1 at the same time, but you can have 3 quilbeasts.

BUt i still stick with saying that goblin factory is the best!

Crypt lord's scarab... LOL

Quil lvl 3

-.-

far seer's wolf!
