Let's return to the beginning of the discussion.

You go to just kill your opponent. No mana, but there's a well in the movement cell. And you know the opponent has no mana. He attacks with a scout hero on the serpent expecting to cast something not particularly important — and surprise — he sees a saving opening on the terrain. Naturally, he hides. No money for ransom — GG. Ridiculous?
I very much want to see an answer specifically to this question.

Well, you're just spamming, right? :smile05:
He attacks with a scout hero on the serpent, lands on a saving cell.
Both under the old rules and the new ones — he is obliged to retreat. Why write this example?
And any other example, since this one immediately started transforming. No need to assume something abstract. Write a specific example — and describe specifically how the rules work, and what conclusion can be drawn from it..

The essence of the game is to defeat your opponent. A competitive game can have no other essence. Everything else is starting conditions, restrictions on gameplay, and victory criteria.

And how have the examples you provided long since strayed far from that essence? :confused:

Now let's look at your own formulation — you propose allowing an exception in the case of storming a castle. Like, legions of skeletons have breached the walls, entered the castle, destroying everything and killing, and around them flies a lonely sprite, which a skeleton could kill with one blow, and ... the legion of skeletons is forced to retreat (!). I see a gross violation of the spirit of the game :)
Well now, you're very likely right here. I don't like it either.
I'm thinking the rule should be supplemented with a clarification that the gate is not broken.

There is an ignore button, but it's useless if the account is not activated.
Exactly. Thanks for reminding me. )
I hope my account is activated, and anyone who wants to can ignore me?
