You want a sage with Elrond backing him up with self heal,
1:toughness
2:rage
3:earthshaker
4:bombard
5:leap
6:improved earthshaker
7:improved leap
8:great rage
9:improved bombard
10: mighty earthshaker
Good all round hero this, can take out other heros if need be and buildings too, but must importantly the leap and earthshaker decimate units.
Elf create a heros are only good when they have that unbelieveably annoying glitch heal, as if they come up against a dwarve or a captain or even a troll they are gunna die plain an simple

"What is that supposed to mean?..."
Exactly what it means, i've only ever faced noobs who use there elven archer honestly, whilst anyone above rank 5 i've faced with an elven hero has glitch heal, which allows them to heal repeatedly without the self heal power recharging making them all but invincible.
If a player with an unglitched elf hero say at level 2 was to face a C o gondor or a dwarve at level 2 there's no contest is there? The sword or hammer is mightier than the bow, granted if the elves level 10 and has superior archer ability then yes your in for a hiding, but it would take a skilled player to rank an elve hero to level 10 against a good player with a captain or dwarve.
The way i see it everyone has to level up the same way, by killing lairs, farms or units at first (unless you rush attack ), elves take ages to kill lairs and farms compared to others which means they are harder to level up, coz there is no way a skilled player would send units to engage an elve (unless your desperate) as youd be giving your opponent free experience points.
Elves are amazing at level 10 as are most heros, but id only ever use them for a comp stomp.

for, so far, my best CaH is a capitain of gondor with
1:shield bash
2:reinforcements
3:shield bash 2
4:Spear throw
5: reinforcements 2
6:spear throw 2
7: spear throw 3
8:train allies
9: dun remember, its either spear throw or shield bash improved
10: reinforcements 3
his spear throw kills sauron (tested), he summons 4 battalions at the end and gives 1 lvl per train allies. I actually already won battles in hard without rushing and without using anything more than him + a lower lvled aragorn or even boromir. (ooh yeah and maaaany summon hobbits- they recharge fast), with and army of the dead to finish the enemy when I need to atk his fortress
