SVAROG (red, Swamp, Tazar) & Pyre (brown, Rampart, Ivor) def Alihes (blue, Necro, Thant) & Player_ (green, Stronghold, Crag) teamwork@123

The draft turned out not bad, although I think our opponents had a better one. On my respawn I only had a Griffin Conservatory 1, but 3 elven external dwellings. Zhenya had 2 Dragon Fly Hives 8+6, a Wyvern external dwelling, 1 centaur external dwelling taken (2 total). I got very lucky at the start of the week — I ate 2 chests of 5k experience each. Ivor was given Earth and Logistics. So Ivor spent the whole week purposefully heading towards a Guardian Object of 50-99 unicorns, picking up +4 Knowledge in the general zone along the way, took an empty Pandora's Box without Wisdom, dispelled a Sphere of Vulnerability, which helped a lot in the Dragon Utopia and when breaking through a block of dragons. On day 117, Ivor with 38 elves, ~12 Wyverns, ~100 Centaurs, drones, etc. comes out into the center, takes a Pandora's Box for level 3 magic behind griffin pegasuses. Also built a Mana Vortex.
On day 121, the elves are already 78, not enough timer to take the Dragon Utopia (1500 moves remaining), we thought we'd get crushed now without elves and GG. The opponents' army was shining brighter, although we completely bought out everything.
Day 122, I take a Dragon Fly Hive with a scout hero, Ivor picks up the KV and takes the Dragon Utopia (Titan's Sword and Shield), I try to hop to the second Dragon Utopia, but a couple of moves short. With a scout hero I scout the army of the blue player at Gunnisson (as it turned out, Gunn was a scout hero).
Day 123, on his turn, Zhenya takes the army from Ivor, passes it to Tazar, who picks up a couple more experience chests on the way to Gunn, levels up well, and Gunn has no chance in the FB, despite having a stronger army.
Thanks for the game!
