Because the Griffin Conservatory on snow turned out to be max, the one on grass pre-max, and the Dragon Fly Hives under Snipers. I had to keep running Shiva around stat boosts and leveling Earth magic, since there were no meaty guards, and use Solmyr to trim griffins in the Griffin Conservatory. I found a ring of -1 morale, ribs, and a ring of +1/+1 morale/luck — that was all the artifacts. The Dragon Fly Hives could only be taken by 125. I took the first Dragon Fly Hive, aimed for the second, and then my opponent ran out of the portal under the elves and stood opposite the Griffin Conservatory on grass. The only place I could retreat to was the corner. Judging by the army, my opponent was clearly doing better, but his stats were not impressive at all. I decided that running into the corner and leaving him the Griffin Conservatory and the main was a loss, so I grabbed the Dragon Fly Hive and the Griffin Conservatory right under his nose and attacked. To my surprise, my opponent came to me without a spell book. Well, GG.
Thanks for the game)
