The playoffs of a tournament played using the very popular Double Elimination system are underway. The opponents are busy people, with families, who have found a few days off to play this very interesting, difficult, and long game on the 6LM10A map (for example). And then, a draw! Really? But time is running out, and there won't be time to replay. So what do we do? Long live the coin toss, whoever is lucky wins!
Yes, a coin toss is fairer than awarding victory to someone who doesn't deserve it.
Isn't that obvious?

I just gave an example of a similar situation.

I like games where a player wins against an opponent with a huge army through tactical tricks. Here, the overpowered Brogh was defeated, and his opponent used the only possible chance.

As I understand it, he wasn't defeated through tactical tricks.
He was defeated thanks to a ridiculous rule that contradicts the spirit of the game.
If harpies could attack the entire battlefield from that cell, then yes, he was defeated. If they couldn't, it's just an unworthy victory in a court of law, thanks to legal loopholes.
