[Tournaments-HotA] Blitz Jebus Cross - 2

I think the final showed that the imbalance in castle strength in HotA remained. The rollbacks in all games were 3500-6000+ (from blue to red, of course), i.e., quite significant, but blue still had an advantage. We never negotiated for the color. Overall, out of 9+8+...+1 possible castle pairs, only about 20-25% of them involve negotiation for the color.

Thanks for the tournament!

Balancing castles on Jebb is a difficult thing to achieve, and it's also not very compatible with balancing on other maps.

And specifically on Jebb, imbalances in balance are not well regulated by rollbacks - you can give away 7-8K and run away with 111 in 8 heroes.

And there's also the blitz factor - the more money you have, the harder it is to use it effectively. In theory, you can use a 5K rollback to buy additional heroes in chains, but you don't have time to plan these chains on a short timer.

So I'm not worried about it.
