I thought the final wasn't played. Didn't you bother to write a report?
And Besha sang in the song, "the tournament didn't take place... it seems they forgot about our Stinger and Samurai."
There's no denying that it's more enjoyable to play on the Test of Elements map.
SOD, in my opinion, is for those with stronger spirits and who are ready for 10 Goblins at the start (and, of course, for some losses because of that).

I just thought that since you're reading the thread and writing here, you might be interested in playing on SOD. And to show that masters of the game (which you undoubtedly are) can also excel on SOD.

The final was played, and I suffered a heavy defeat, but Stinger, due to some personal reasons, didn't want to acknowledge the victory. We agreed to play again later, but we couldn't find a suitable time. Then, Artem started playing very rarely and generally appeared online less often. So, based on this, I believe I still lost the final.
I'm not particularly against playing on SOD, but only in a serious tournament, let's say in an inter-portal tournament. For fun, I'd rather spend my time playing on the Test of Elements map. But my offer still stands: if the vice-champion of this tournament is interested, I would be happy to play a friendly match with him!:)

And there are no enhanced respawn points (goodbye to crypts on Barbarian lands :D ) :)

I've never played and I don't plan to play Tyraxor with averaged respawn points!:p
