I retried everything and it turned out terribly. On respawn, there was an external dwelling of efreeti and a Griffin Conservatory—that's it. No gold, no treasure chests, nothing. I went through a portal and ran into a blockade of snipers (guarding an artifact) and 50+ storm elementals. As a result, I did nothing in the first week. On day 121, I broke through the storms (lost my Infinite...), killed the Castle player (lost all my fodder), and picked up the Necromancer's Cloak. At the end of the second week, the opponent showed up with 10-19 Vivi, birds, and fodder; my secondary hero got wrecked. There was a clear advantage in stats, units, and artifacts. On day 131, I decided to storm the 3rd Griffin Conservatory with a weak hero—big mistake. I lost almost all my fodder in the first round due to morale effects. A loss. GG
