"only XL-5"

The layout was great for everyone except that not a single hero stubbornly refused to get Earth. Dessa started with Offense and Air, ended up with Water, and then stubbornly wanted to take Fire. The supports were the same—a bunch of mages taking Air, Water, Fire, whatever you want, but not Earth. Meanwhile, in the inf village, a skill TP had been built on the first attempt long ago. Of course, there was no Flux anywhere, and racking my brain over what to do, I ran the timer down to zero and jumped into the prison super-treasure to crack it open. That's where they got me. Aislin cast Implosion on half the angels, but at the same time showed 30 mana and then fought a couple of tough battles. Having Shackles, I decided that I had to attack in hopes of a slight mana advantage. I gathered 90 marks, a few ducks, and 4 angels and entered battle. The opponent didn't spend mana (my 40 vs his 30) and the finale turned out to be very brutal. I had 4 angels, 10 ducks, 90 marks, 18 gogs, and ones. They had 2 angels, 10 ducks, 9 Rampart horses, 25 demons, 280 skeletons. Stats were 7 21 7 8 for me and 4 8 8 10 for them. I decided to cast Mass Bless in the first round; in response, I got an Implosion on the angels and Mass Haste in the second round, and my marks were blocked by Vivas and enemy horses. I had 36 mana, they had 0. Decided on a papal teleport for 3 mana—I cast my Mass Haste, killed the angels with ducks, and in the next round teleported 50 marks to the top right corner, but there was no one really available to close them off. In the end, thanks to single slows and an advantage in combat stats, I managed to pull it off by a thread. Thanks for the game!

Few objects for power, skeletons from one necromancer were getting lost. A TP scroll was found behind the bears, and DD in the Tower after the 2nd upgrade. I saw the opponent near the Dragon Utopia, decided to take it before him, but the guards turned out to be dead. Killed the meat on the same spot, attacked Dessa with an explosion. Stayed in this super-treasure for 1 day with 30 mana (wanted to take another Dragon Utopia) and paid the price. In the finale, I hoped the opp didn't have Shackles, but suspected their presence based on his behavior. Didn't fight very well; it was probably possible to win.
Thanks for the games!
