- stick to medium armour (heavy if you don't cast). Evasion alone isn't very reliable and it's better to take average beating all the time (because you can regenerate that) rather than get beaten heavily once (because you don't have HP to take heavy beating).
- train spellcasting or evocations early. Train fighting early. These additional HPs/MPs seriously help.
- choose god giving defense boosts. It helps a lot with rather crappy VS defense aptitudes. I highly suggest Okawaru for immediate heroism or Ashenzari if you can wait for boosts. Chei in theory should work, in practice didn't for me (and Chei is considered a challenge god by many people).
- check if you have critical consumables before engaging in tough fights. Since you cannot heal, you are particularly looking for scrolls of blinking, fear, strong wands and evocables. Also potions of magic! They are rich man's potions of heal wounds.

Sure, bh doesn't block it, but I wouldn't suggest to anyone to play an hard background which also blocks race's strongest power (making it certainly quite shitty) until mid game

Dragon form is definitely stronger and better in practically any real circumstance than statue form and I would suggest the former for many tm both in 3 and 15 rune game - at least if they want to try something different from bh, because bh can win easily a 15 runes game - while sf is not terrible for like two or thee races\combo.
Hydra form may be worse in end-game/extended but it's still a single school spell which doesn't slow you against a double school which does so if I somehow was forced to use one in late game I'd still probably lean towards the former and not the latter-

2-3 hits in statue form mean Orb of Fire can attack you 4-8 times (provided OoF is already adjacent) and every attack can deal up to 64 damage (fireball does 3d43 ignoring both EV and GDR)
See viewtopic.php?f=12&t=11907&p=166694#p166961 for some unlucky roll examples.

I actually didn't realize it when I was playing said vinestalkers but it looks to me like regen rate should max out at 1hp per 10aut. The regen spell should hit this max no matter what, and otherwise it takes a few items. (Or somewhere in the range of 500max HP according to wiki.)
Edit: you know, maybe I'm wrong about this (and was right before). The actual code is at https://github.com/crawl/crawl/blob/a893f3e28b079ccd03644fba9c6b34bbdfc8e98e/crawl-ref/source/player-reacts.cc#L1233. I don't fully understand how this works but if you can get your regeneration amount over 200 then you will definitely get 2hp per 10aut. It looks like the carryover is preserved to the next turn, too, so you don't lose regen points.
So then: the VS advice is, get as much regen as you can!

I also find it amusing that he dropped his primary weapons before winning so we can't see what he really used to kill most things (based on his stabbing I'm guessing a sblade).
