Alex_nv (Necropolis, Naadir) def. Igor916 (Warlock, Kifrah) 2-3-1, Sun Template, "To Each Their Own"

Well, what can I say? :) I was lucky in everything! With the hero Naadir, right next to the Castle, there was an artifact shop and a guild (Subjugation, Phantom, and Phoenix). My opponent was having a harder time – he wrote that he didn't get anything interesting. I cleared the starting area – defeating 26 Earth Elementals on day 4, I took the Abandoned Mine (Gold). On the 3rd week, I took the area with the Mercury Mine, and on the 4th-5th week, the area with the Gold Mine – 2 Groves + 2 Elemental Shrines + 2 Witch Huts (almost all maxed out!). I leveled up to 20 and decided to return to the Castle for spells. Then Igor with Kifrah appeared! He hung out in the area with the Mercury Mine and then returned to his own area, I guess. I spent some time in the Main Town and cleared the path to the Silver and Emerald Mines. After buying artifacts from the 2nd month and troops, I went to the Battle Town (it was the end of the 6th week), and Igor appeared again with a decent army led by 5 Black Dragons. He approached me closely. I bought the remaining troops from the 2-3-1 for 6 weeks, except for Dragons and Spectres (I didn't take the 7th-week increase!), and attacked with an army of approximately 700+ Alt. Skeletons / 140 Nightwraith Zombies / 20+20 Alt. Spectres / 43 Grade Vampires / 31 Grade Liches / 17 Messengers! In the final battle, I used Phoenix + Resurrection, and once used Phantom Skeletons, but it failed – the opponent killed it with Meteor. That's all!
