The Fall from Grace

Completed this scenario... No. For the first time since registering on the forum, I am writing that I played a scenario with a Hero and did NOT complete it.

The gameplay of the scenario consists of sequentially winning battles with preset troops and hero skills. I won 7 battles, but stopped at the fight against Zehir. The battles are difficult for me. The most challenging of the seven was indeed the seventh, against Elaiya. Here is how it went: I tried different tactics 10 times and constantly lost, but on the 11th... I played the start of the battle very carelessly, but then luck triggered often and at the right time, so I won, even leaving many troops remaining.

Regarding the battle with Zehir... I had an idea to play using an evasion bug, but they kill too quickly; luck often triggers for the enemy units. I am uploading replays of all the battles I managed to win and a save before the battle with Zehir. I suggest the author try to win this fight specifically from my save—that is, with the same combat RNG that I encountered. If I see a victory, then I will admit that this scenario is indeed an outstanding piece of work, and the battle with Zehir is a tactical puzzle for Heroes 5, the most difficult of all I have encountered, yet very beautiful.
