Thank you for Heroes of Jin Yong. It's currently day 232, and the struggle on the map is very interesting. I've defeated all the AI players around (Kreg and Dessa are still holding their ground), and I'm waiting for an enemy hero to emerge from the Necropolis in the lower left corner of the map. I probably need to pack up and move further away from him.

I'm also far from being a skilled player; I can't speedrun this type of map, but I'm managing to keep a decent pace. HoJY seems even easier than Way Home so far. But I see that later on, insane AI players will start appearing through portals, and they'll be given flight upon exiting the portals. Let's see how I can handle them.

Harry Potter, by the way, was also recently completed. It's a tricky map, especially the start, but Aeris Quamarine couldn't evenly distribute the difficulty across all stages of the playthrough, so from a certain point (namely, when all the heroes rushing to the starting location are defeated), the game becomes simple and even a bit tedious.

Also, thank you for the suggestion to play Y2K+1; I'll add it to my list of maps to try. But for now, I plan to try Rise of the Sun King after the season maps, although I doubt I'll even be able to handle the first few days :)

Don't you play these types of maps yourself?

I don't particularly like these kinds of maps where you have to understand the author's logic, right down to the last move, to the last unit of mana. And a mistake means replaying, and it takes more than an hour.
But I can say that they are somewhere in the middle for me.
My favorite map is Lord of the Rings 3.0 (not to be confused with the Season map The Lord of Rings).
My least favorite map is the overdone Paragon.
There are also hardcore German maps like Rise of the Sun King and Metataxer's Revenge.
I would also add maps that are, in one way or another, based on a "puzzle" - whether it's battles, RPG elements, or, if that's the case, maps for 1 (!) day. All of them are on our website with the tag Riddle.
I would especially draw attention to Riddle #3, Riddle #1, and Riddle #7
