Leolopus (Dungeon, Lethos) lose Primus (Dungeon, Wyshan) - Dragon Pass, 1-4-7
For the second time in a row, a mirror match Dungeon vs Dungeon, again Wyshan, and again my progression was worse than my opponent's. Clearing was going fine, but I just couldn't get any starting education, while my opponent had everything in order. In the first two weeks, Lethos was far ahead of me in stats and levels. On the third week, I broke through to an area with a utopia, got some good artifacts. I calmed down a bit about the progression luck and continued rushing. On the first day of the fourth week, I built the artifact shop and found Shackles, which I was very happy about. I decided to buy them for 20,000 and try to catch my opponent. The plan worked 100%! Thanks for the game.

My starting hero was Dirael, which immediately stressed me out, but after checking the tavern I calmed down, Ossir and Gilraen were waiting for me there, in short - chocolate. Then everything went like clockwork, I cleared everything around, but at one of the portals I lost 130 Dancers and 150 Fairies badly, but I didn't despair and ran on, and then the opponent appeared in sight. I took with me Forest Archers, Dryads, Ancient Ents, High Druids and ran to catch Ibba, caught up after three turns and a battle ensued. The opponent tried to cast Berserker on my shooters twice, and both times the spell was resisted. On the third time, he cast Berserker on the Ents, but that was probably agony already, since he only had 8 Arcant Dragons left. In short, the battle was fought to the end, and thanks to the opponent for that, and thanks overall for an interesting, albeit long, game!
