Just like in dota, none of them is easy to start... It really REALLY depends on each person... Before DotA, I used to play all the time... Just try them out, play a few games with each one, and then just choose the one you like the most...
I personally like the Undead, but ALL of them are good... You just need to figure out how to play them...
As for strategies, it's easy... If getting a hero and a few troops takes you too long, you're dead... Simple as that, so make that your priority... The hard part is balancing out troops, city and resources, and the advancements you can get (like extra armor, unit abilities, etc.)
You'll get good with time and practice, and try to look at how other people play... What to go for, etc.
Good luck

I play with the undead and i have 2 strats:
1.Crypt Fiends
In this strat you rush for 2 Crypt Fiends,The tomb (the place where you can buy items),and the DK
1'st build an graveyard,an crypt,make 2 more workers to get gold,make an ziggurat,train 1 more goul to harvest lumber (NOTE you will keep 2 gouls to get lumber for now)
2'nd build an Altar and an Tomb of Relics (or whatever the name is),recruit DK and 2 crypt fiends
3'rd by the time the Tomb is done you should have the 2 fiends and the DK,buy an Rod of Necromancery (the item that makes skeletons from corpses),make 2 skeletons from the graveyard and start killing neurals using the skeletons as tanks
4'th keep training fiends until you have 5-6,after upgrade the necropolis
5'ft get the burrow and the web upgrades,build an Necromancery (the place where you train necromancers i forgot the name),get 2-3 necromancers and start ataking the enemy.

NOTE when you begin the attak on the enemy focus fire on weaker units so that the necromancers will summon skeletons

2.Goul-mania
1'st make an crypt,an ziggurat and then get 2 more workers,after that make an altar and train the Dreadlord (again use only 2 gouls to harvest lumber)
2'nd train loads of gouls,when you have 4 (without the 2 that harvest lumber) and the Dreadlord go killing neurals (IMPORTANT!! use Vampiric aura on the Dreadlord)
3'rd make an graveyard,put 4 gouls on lumer and upgrade the necropolis
4'th make 2-3 fiends and make the web upgrade so that you can deal with air units,make an Necromancery (or wtf it's called) and train 2 necromancers
5'ft go for the Black Citadel and make the final goul upgrade
6'th get loads of gouls,2 necromancers and 3-4 fiends and attack the enemy

NOTE this strategy it's not as efective as the first as i found out,but it's more fun

IMPORTANT!! when i say recruis 3-4 fiends i mean have all the time 3-4 fiends,i mean if you get 3 fiends and they die MAKE an other 3,get it?

I hope this helps you...

i usually go for dk right off and if u have a partner get him to rush second lvl necroplis and such and get the pit lord get the rod of necromancy and 3-4 ghouls and heal them whenever they go weak so with the pit lord as help the firestorm thingy will kill workers and will be summoned and then kill everything that goes out this should happen in the first 10 min and most people leave when rushed

Uuuhhh...guys?I think your posts won't help him.He doensn't really look like he understands what are you talking about.I always play random, it's the best. As for how to start, play the campaigns. Everything is carefully explained in them. Maybe you will want to skip the reign of chaos campaigns cuz they are a bit different, but I like them more...When you finish them, try playing against a computer, learn tactics for some time, and when you are ready, then try real games.

The campains are NOT where you learn to play w3
Online is much harder
In the campain you learn what all buildings do...

If he doesn't know what a barrack or a necropolis is, I think he should play campaign.
Play campaign, dont listen to Vakma or others, except if you can already beat a computer(normal) easily. You actually learn a lot about units in campaigns and that's what he needs.I mean if you are not already expirienced in w3...

human is the easiest and best for newbie, why?
orc-very expensive basic warrior(grunt) and no healer except if u have rokhan
night elf-u dont have a tanker at first because all are range
undead-it is very complicated because u dont know wether you are going to harvest lumber by your ghoul or use them as your primary warrior
human-well balance and proportional
get an altar of kings,barracks and a farm as your first build
