Knights of Tezoth

I agree that the experience turned out to be a peculiar one, and these alliances were unnecessary in the end. But we play as we play.

No. Alliances here are the very foundation. Because that's the format. We used to call it SSS (Strongest Squad Syndrome)... The thing is, the "squads" here are... "artificial". Let's finish this, and I'll explain everything later.
So how's your "bride" doing? Tarantos is beating her, I presume?

It would have been better to put a cap on the number of players per squad. Or make them regional right away, but with an upper limit. Our players are used to team play.

Apparently, we should have gone with real squads. I don't know... North, South, West, East, Center... 4 players on average each. Then the leader's exit wouldn't have been so... so what it turned out to be. Neither Heroist nor Astral had practically any chance. The leader is candidate #1 for being "taken out", no matter how you look at it. No matter how Heroist twisted and turned, Ferlyuts and Avesom would have gotten him anyway. If not on turn 2, then on turn 3. If not on turn 3, then on turn 4. Not the chocolate bar, damn it, that you were afraid of for some reason, but those two. And not Yashchur, damn it, taking out Heroist, but Ferlyuts and Avesom taking out Alsira. Because that's, damn it, the enemy leader!!!

I have no complaints about Ferlyuts and Avesom's actions, although I did expect that other flyers would be a higher priority for the former. Apparently, he was afraid of kiting under a double turn, which is an extremely unlikely scenario.

Agreed on the squads. Agreed that it would have been far better than what we got. Especially since Alaria would have 100% joined the northerners, despite their lack of flyers. But what we have is what we have. You wanted chaos in the brawl? Chaos is what we got. Just not the kind you expected.
