Wic (red, Conflux, Monere) def Pit (blue, Castle, Valeska, Tamika) @ Jebus, 124
We played TE-full.
Started without restarts - immediately spawned 2 external dwellings of psychos near the castle, a conservatory, a Pandora's Box for 5K exp (Monere immediately got Earth and Explorer), a Dragon Utopia is visible. Barely any gold given, but decided not to risk it, such luck might not come again. Only 4 heroes on day 1.
Then the usual running around, scouting, building chains. By the end of the week Monere leveled up to 12, also picked up armor. Castle build - psychos in the fort (desperately low on gold), painted and bought 4(!) external dwellings of psychos, 2 of air, 1 of water, 1 of butterflies and 1 of phoenixes. From the Pandora's Box behind green dragons, 30 water elementals were taken, gathered 23 wiverns.
What's bad about Conflux - it's hard to get to the center on 121, you need an upgraded shooter, and psychos would be good too. Plus in this case it was hard on gold for buying, and Mass Word wasn't given under Expert Earth, need tempo for guild rebuilding. So I didn't rush, but decided to clear the respawning hives and take the Dragon Utopia for a proper purchase.
123 - minimal Dragon Utopia broken for cuirass and GB. Papa breaks out from the scout and runs to the center.
124 - I break the horse horde, run out to the center. For the first time in the game, Tamika appears in the tavern with good stats, but lower than mine - apparently, she also just entered the center. Need to hurry to intercept - before she gets fat, I can manage to kill her thanks to Mass Word and GB, well, 23 psychos + 47 wiverns are intimidating.
Monere moves excellently - Expert Log and Expert Explorer, I run 3 screens strictly straight to the center, without being distracted by Pandora's Boxes (no Wisdom anyway) and run into Tamika with archers in a reserve stack. Army is weaker than mine, angels unupgraded, no Mass Haste or Mass Dispel => first turn, Mass Word and shooting.
Thanks for the game!
P.S. Please don't seed me for the next rounds, as I have no motivation to finish the group stage. See you in the playoffs...
