Regarding the Alchemist-Yar match, the judges were guided by the rule on red-rushing:
3.1. Red-rushing is prohibited, meaning that the player playing as red is not allowed to attack on the first day of the week with reinforcements purchased on that day:
a) against the blue Castle (even if the Castle is not guarded);
b) against blue heroes or guarded mines, if the presence of reinforcements can affect the outcome of the battle or losses in the battle for either player.
The difference in losses was, if I remember correctly, as much as one imp!!!
In September, the AC will try to prepare and publish a new version of the rules, and after that, the topic of the controversial red-rush (and not only it) will be closed once and for all.
Did it affect the losses? Yes, it did. The rules do not state how significant the difference in losses should be. It's not quite a "tech-por," but a replay could have been ordered. I don't want to engage in nitpicking, but such precedents encourage players to commit minor violations in the hope that they will not be noticed or ignored.
