Oelm (Barbarian, Tower) def. Gynnar (Barbarian, Phoenixes) TS3 SOD
This was already the 4th game, random map, interesting setup. It's easier to rush in SOD, I knew that Gynnar hadn't played much in Throne of the Heroes (even less than me), and I decided that he would most likely prepare for ranged units, while I decided to focus on melee combat instead, and I was right. It wasn't that difficult to defend against berserkers anyway. I took the standard offensive spell, defense spell, and I thought about taking water spell, but the Barbarian has strong stacks, so I decided to focus on air units instead, especially since a light attack on air units would deal 500 damage (Gynnar didn't actually buy any air units, though). On his side, there were also melee units, air units, and something else, probably offensive spells and who knows what else.
I naturally had problems with rushing, so I took two stacks of Djinns, one with a single unit, there's no real tactic there, I just set them up. On his side, he quickly cast mass haste, okay. We hold the line, the psychic units don't reach us, the Titans are blocked, good, the attack is now 20-30% stronger. I use my favorite trick - ray into his creatures, I focus on them, there are 2 left (maybe more, I don't remember), Gynnar used Bird Strike on a single Djinn, which is good for me, the ability isn't important, but I had to put the ogre mages in front. In the next round, I cast mass haste, and then blindness. We fight, I move the Titans so that his ogre mages are cut off, now they can only attack the Nagas or the blinded ogres, and his Phoenixes are also being destroyed, plus a full stack of creatures attacks the psychic (magical) units. Then he blinds the bears, I heal, and so on, until they finally resist. GG. Thank you.
