only XL-6

Despite the strength of my army, I had practically lost the game. But my opponent made a mistake by being out of mana and was defeated by a level 1 hero with Shackles.
Thanks for the game!

The playoff pairings (BO3) will be determined as follows:
1) The first-place teams in each group will play against the second-place teams.
2) The quartets of groups will be randomly determined (among 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8). For example, 1-2 play against 7-8, and 3-4 against 5-6.
3) Within each quartet, the pairs of groups are randomly determined. For example, 1 plays against 7, 2 against 8.

Thus, for this example, in the first quarter of the bracket, the pairing will be 1st place in group 1 vs. 2nd place in group 7,
in the second quarter, 2nd place in group 2 vs. 1st place in group 8,
in the third quarter, 2nd place in group 1 vs. 1st place in group 7,
in the fourth quarter, 1st place in group 2 vs. 2nd place in group 8.
This way, the participants who played in the same groups in the first and second stages of the tournament are separated as much as possible.

The bracket will be generated after August 12, when it will no longer be possible to choose a convenient opponent.
