May he rest in peace. Our community has always lived by the principle of being forever young and forever having fun. Year after year, bellies grew, and families were started, but we still considered ourselves the same guys. And then Yama left. It was sad, we mourned, but he was the oldest among us. And Temka, in general, is still quite young. It's hard.

And yes, a true heroic legend has passed. From the very first St. Petersburg tournaments of the last century to his last days, he was one of the best. Others came and went, appeared from nowhere and disappeared into nowhere, but Cobra was one of the best for two whole decades, making a huge contribution to the competitive scene of Heroes. He even has the honorary title of "Player of the Year." So, for me, Artem is simply the best Heroes of Might and Magic III tournament player since the game was created, by a large margin.
