And by the way, this is personally for Kolbassera... You told me that I was lucky because of Earth Magic... So, here's what I want to say: the map we were playing on gave you almost twice the advantage... So how can we even talk about luck? And besides, what kind of cool player are you, criticizing other players, when your Hydras are level 4 and mine are level 2???...
First of all!!! I sincerely apologize to vuzzza from the bottom of my heart for my attempts to suspect this honest person of cheating. In doing so, I once again damaged his reputation on this forum (fortunately, I figured out what was what).
Secondly. (If anyone is interested in how this happened, read on)
After my defeat in the game against him, I, as usual, started to analyze why I lost, i.e., a standard post-game analysis. So: after my analysis, I finally understood what my loss was due to.
Point 1. On the fifth day, I decided to break through the barrier leading to the second Castle and mines (wood and ore... and they were unguarded at that time)... but I was defeated. 15 evil, upgraded Cerberuses simply "tore" my hero apart (I had 4 Vasili and 4 Centaurs... which I didn't even bother to divide into groups of one, and I was so eager to get to the Castle that I forgot to go to the Castle for magic). And when I looked at the map, I noticed that the blue player had no barrier to the second Castle and mines. And the blue player had 10 unguarded chests, while the red player had 4.
Point 2. Before capturing the second Castle, and even after that, I visited the tavern every day and checked if the opponent had captured the second Castle. And after looking at the map, I saw that the blue player's "Shadow" scouting was working at full capacity. This leads to two conclusions: since he captured the Castle later than me, he should have less money. And if I had the same "Shadow" scouting on my territory, I would have been able to track his progress, but unfortunately, the map didn't give me that chance.
Point 3. I played the whole game according to the parameters, and even on the center, I gathered a bonus, but when I saw the opponent, I retreated for reinforcements. And I decided to attack him after replenishing my army, which I did. But the outcome of the events was largely determined by the fact that my opponent had mass slowing magic. And with so many slow units in my army, they were turned into "turtles" and simply shot down, like traitors at an execution. As it turned out later, the opponent took Earth magic at the University, which was not on my territory for some reason, thus not even giving me a chance to play this game of chance, whether I would be lucky or not.
Point 4. When I attacked, I was very confused by the size of the opponent's army, or rather, not the size, but where he got so much money to buy this army, because the cost of his army, according to my calculations, exceeded the cost of mine by 1.5 times. So, I decided to conduct an investigation after I had done the calculations, and it turned out that on the map, on his territory, it was really possible to collect this amount.
Conclusion: In order not to suspect a person in the future, do your own analysis, and everything will fall into place.
Once again, I want to apologize to vuzzza for my suspicions. Thank you for the valuable lesson and for the game.
Question number two. Regarding my withdrawal from the tournament.
Yes, that's right, I am forced to leave the tournament due to a future lack of time, due to the start of the semester. It is difficult to work and study at the same time and still have free time.
I don't mind if someone else takes my place in the tournament.
