'''Undead''' are a fast/medium speed race that is more or less the same as [[Spirit]]. The major difference is that Spirit belongs to the Good alignment and Undead to the Evil alignment. These two races always seem to have the most people playing them round after round, probably because SPUD is one of the most unique races in dominion. All of their troops are immortal (in most circumstances) and when they attack they can convert the enemy's casualties into more of their own units. The basic idea of attacking with SPUD is to hit in the proper range as often as possible using elite OP in order to generate free elite DP units for your dominion. Because they are a fast/medium speed race, it is recommended to have started building Guard Towers by mid-round.  
'''Undead''' are a fast speed race with a rare trait: potentially immortal OP. This is contingent on matching elite O with spec D, while going for Zombies and Crypt Lords for attacking is more total stats but also comes with increased casualties and no turtle.  
 
On the exploring side, Undead is very strong outside of not having real access to spec D. Like [[Demon]] they make for strong Ops Dominions, this time by having higher mana production and a rare population bonus on an efficient exploring race.
