Favorites, to battle! - 10 - The Battle of Favorites! - 10

A nightmare scenario: no money, no army, no artifacts. The first Utopia was taken on week 4 with a decent army of 16 archers and 10 cavalry (thankfully, there was a student who retrained Alamar's resistance skill to level 3 in the tavern). Throughout the game, I was significantly behind in power, and the supports stubbornly refused to upgrade earth magic. But surprisingly, the timer ran out for my opponent first. No one found any cons throughout the game. A difficult positional battle – I had better combat stats, but a weak army and low spell power. My home castle was captured. Before the finale, I managed to upgrade monarchs in the opponent's fortress and brazenly settled there, equipping a +12 spell power amulet, and provoked Ciel into an attack.
In the end, the stats, shackles, and recanter decided the outcome, which almost buried me in the Utopia earlier. Oh, and the air sphere – Tiraqsor's bolt hit even harder than Ciel's.

Thanks for the game!
