A Trendy Tournament

Ejett (Mages, Nura) defeated Leolopus (Humans, Laslo), spider template, somewhere around the middle of the 3rd month

Everything started off well enough, I got Nura right away, but my leveling was somehow unlucky; I decided to go Light for mass spells, without machines or a tent. Due to regeneration, I was constantly taking losses, and very often I had to fight shooters with nowhere else to turn—the second week turned out to be a week of festivals. As a result, I couldn't build up a proper army; I didn't build Rakshasas and Giants until the 4th week. I hoped for Darkness, but first, I needed to build the guild and library. My hopes were justified, and at level 5 I had Subjugation, although I got Darkness itself late—I "managed" to fully upgrade it by the finale. I had already started breaking through ГО (broke through two guards on my side with losses; Titans stood on Leo's side, and I was too afraid to attack them for now), when Laslo arrived at level 28 with a huge army with attack and defense of 20 (Nura was level 23). I decided to defend in the Castle because it would be very difficult in the field, and I feared there would be anti-magic. In short, right at the start of the battle, I broke the catapult; Leo didn't expect such audacity from me :D, so he had to pay his way out. Although I received a substantial sum of money, I suffered heavy losses since I didn't have time to resurrect anyone, and my entire army had been bought for the battle except for 3 Rakshasas. It's unclear how everything would have turned out further in this game (I bought the book of darkness and wanted to explore the treasury a bit), but Leo decided to save time and gift me the victory, for which I thank him :smile20:
I confirm, that is exactly how it was. My Laslo turned out to be level 28 and the army was quite decent; I decided not to drag things out and visit my opponent, who was waiting for me in the castle. In terms of numbers, my troops exceeded Ejett's forces very modestly [sic], but he made the most logical move: he destroyed my catapult. I had to fight with only Archangels and Royal Griffins; essentially, I beat up the opponent's manpower heartily, but lost almost all the archs and griffins, and since the walls became an insurmountable obstacle, I decided to pay my way out, spending 63 thousand (I think it's clear that I still had Very many troops left):D In the morning, I found out it was Ejett's birthday and decided to give him a gift—not to continue the struggle. Thanks for the game!;)

I lost, I confirm, but I think after pity Dragon Utopia I would have become a monster
even though my level was higher, the artifacts still did a dirty deed

Igrok_v_geroev (Elves, Osir) won against Leolopus (Necromancer Vlad), smile template without underground
he says that nothing happened to the phoenixes and there was no magic, but I think they should have developed their free magic then they wouldn't have lost and my development would have gone much faster so I don't know if he could have beaten me or not
thanks for the game!
I confirm, although I don't understand my opponent's logic; fine, it's a tournament game, there it doesn't matter how you win as long as you get that coveted point, but in a regular game, even if it's for rating, what's the point of such a victory:confused: Regarding the phenos, true, I ran into them not because I decided to try, but simply because while hovering the cursor over them to check the number, I accidentally clicked the left mouse button. Of course, I killed the phenos—there turned out to be 22x2 of them—but with 18 units of mana, I lost a lot of troops. At that moment, Igrok was ahead of me in GG leveling by 4 levels and as the game progressed, I was almost sure that I wouldn't have many chances in the finale, but he reacted inadequately to my suggestion to start an autosave....
P.S. Knowing how to win beautifully is not enough; you also need to know how to lose beautifully. I think you'll understand me, Sanya;)
