14.10.12. crzq (blue, Necro, Clavius, Clavius) def Piterius (red, Castle, Valeska, Dess) 8mm6a 222.
Started without restarts, my native comp was also Necro, the opponent's native was Inferno, but the map also spawned two Castles. In the first week, I had a decent start, not over-crabbing or feeding too much to neutrals; by the end of the week, I took my native Necro comp, which also had two external dwellings of skeletons. By the end of the week, I had ~180.
In the second week, I took three Griffin Conservatories (2+1+3), positioned quite conveniently but still stretched out (plus it took about 3 days to run to my native comp), and three Dragon Fly Hives (all min). Around ~123, contact began in the center, where I grabbed a dungeon with an already built Mage Guild 4. At 127-131, I went to defend it, take a nearby Dragon Utopia, and pressure the opponent (when we met, he didn't have much army - 46 Marksmen, some of which died, plus about 14 Angels, 35 Pikemen, 1 Cavalier, and a few Griffin Conservatory griffins). My main was leveling up excellently - Expert Logistics was already in place.
In the 3rd week, I took a Dragon Utopia(3) (Gladius, Titanium Shield, Crown +4+4). There were also many trades of secondary heroes (which IMO was more beneficial for me, plus I was fighting decently). At 132, I was 1 tile short of catching the opponent's sped-up main, whom I would have killed in the first round(
Then a lot of dumb play started on my side - I didn't see any Dragon Utopias, didn't know what to do - playing tag with a Logist didn't seem appealing. In the end, I gradually took away the opponent's main, then other castles, and generally controlled the center. Then, at the start of the 2nd month, I finally decided to check what was in the native corner treasure zone - and there I immediately saw 2 Dragon Utopias and 2 Griffin Conservatories (4+4). Both Dragon Utopias were level 3; a bit later, I took another level 3, which gave me armor +4+4, a Chupa Chups, and Wings. Along the way, I maxed out Wisdom for my main and built up castles - Town Portal dropped in my native comp's Mage Guild 4.
The opponent didn't find any Dragon Utopias and, after building a bunch of Mage Guilds, didn't find control, after which he surrendered. As the post-mortem showed, there was no Dimension Door or Fly on the map at all, and Town Portal was only with my Necro.
Thanks for the game.
