“Two Seasons: Winter-Spring 2015” Tournament. Online games for rating (reports, discussions).

It started out well, with 3 heroes on 111))) But there were 2 Conservatories at respawn, and I didn't lose heart. On 112 I gathered some gold and picked up the max skeleton transformer, already having 7 heroes. On 113 I take a low-level Griffon Conservatory with Grindan, losing a few Centaurs and 3 trees(((. Then I send Crag Hack on an Angel towards the center for scouting, while Kyrre handles domestic affairs with 10 Grand Elves and 40 Centaurs, since the second Conservatory turned out to be tough (2-4). I kill the computer player quickly, scout the passage to my opponent, as well as the passages to the other center and corner. At the start of the second week, I take a level 3 Conservatory with Kyrre using Mass Slow, then a couple of Dragon Fly Hives for 12 Dragon Flies, then another level 3 Conservatory. I also pick up some average stat-boosting artifacts. The moment of truth arrives on 131. In the center shared with my opponent, there is a Dragon Utopia, and since I am the red player, I take it with the growth on 131. It's a level 1 Dragon Utopia. But it gives a Pendant of Total Recall (+6 all stats) and a Mace (+4 Attack). Then I head towards my opponent but don't reach him. He attacks me with a scout hero carrying a decent amount of troops (but noticeably worse stats). By the way, respect to my opponent for the expert play — 7 Angels and 42 Dragon Flies on 131 impressed me. I cut down all 7 of his Angels and all 3 Cavaliers, while he kills 2 of my Angels. Then I buy back my heroes and reach him with my full army using Grindan with Expert Earth Magic. He surrenders after the battle. GG! Thanks to my opponent for the game!
