Турниры HeroesWorld Cup & World Cup - 2012

The second game against the Chinese player... so I immediately took my two resource nodes because the initial layout and resource distribution weren't ideal. Then we started playing... he didn't take any resource nodes. In general, I was heavily pressured on my starting area, and I saw that I needed to break through three Guard Towers, but it turned out there were four. To get to the center. In two weeks, I squeezed everything I could out of my starting area. I only made one mistake regarding sacrificing a Knight. When I was clearing out the Orcs near the city, it wasn't clear whether the Draconians would attack my own units if the Orcs retaliated. Everything else was fine. On day 131, I broke through four Guard Towers without any Earth magic experience. First, I built four Rusty Swordsmen, then around 80 Knights, then around 30 Ghost Draconians, then 40 Bears, with upgrades. I lost 1 Angel, 4 Ducks, 3 Dryads, and 6 Centaurs. I think that's it. There was nothing left to do in my starting area, and I saw that my opponent had already taken the center. When I moved out on day 131, I was immediately attacked. In the Fortress, he had 45 Lizards, 8 Chaos Hydras, 7 Red Dragons, 6 Hydras, 21 Scorpions, 4 Wyverns, and 12 Medusas... 360 mana points. I had 61 Grand Griffins, 23 Knights, 1 Duck, 1 Duck, 25 Elven Archers, 1 Angel, and 7 Green Dragons. I had around 60 mana points. In the Fortress, I think the Chinese player decided to mock me. Having a strong Implosion spell, he didn't use it for the first four turns. In the first round, I cast Shield on everyone and waited. He used Haste. We fought, then I cast Slow on him, then he cast Shield, and then Haste again. In the battle, my troops held up very well! I don't remember exactly, but it took about 6-8 Chaos Hydras to barely kill one Unicorn! 21 Scorpions killed 20 Elven Archers in one hit. In general, they held their ground and dealt good damage. But when the Chinese player saw that he couldn't win the battle with his army, he started using Implosion. After the battle, he had about 6 Hydras, 1 Dragon, 3-4 Chaos Hydras, and 8 Archers left. The first Implosion killed about 13-15 Knights. Then the Wyverns used Implosion and finished off the Elven Archers and Grand Griffins.
