Considering the constant questions about whether certain heroes are available or not, and whether it is possible or impossible to hire them "manually," I ask all participants in the Blitz to check this possibility for themselves. If you cannot hire Conflux heroes, please note this. Instructions on how to do this are above.

It's too late to dig for Conflux heroes; I've already sent the save file. I spent about 3 hours on the Walkthrough. There wasn't more time. Although I had another 4 hours of free time today, I decided to try to improve my result, and lo and behold, I managed to improve it, but it's too late; the save file has been sent. Never mind, the main thing is that I realized that you can't rush in the offline tournament.

I also strongly urge everyone to practice and run the Hero Digger program. Maps for the next stages are currently being prepared. Without a clear "digging" plan, it will be difficult...

Although in this tournament, I never learned how to use the Hero Digger; I dug manually; apparently, I have "bad_hands.sys".

And after the tournament, I'll tell you about a very interesting feature that I, and especially Yura, encountered during the Walkthrough... it's related to the necessary heroes. Some kind of weird thing... maybe someone will explain what's going on later.

I suspect what it's about; I noticed it in the second Walkthrough and even found an explanation for it. And the "weird thing" is actually quite interesting.
I can even write a mini-article about "my" weird thing (with a description of the problem, ways to solve it, and conclusions) if anyone is interested in reading about the "WEIRD THING" lol.
