“Two Seasons: Summer-Autumn 2016” Tournament. Online games for rating (reports, discussions).

We played quite a while ago, but the game was memorable because it turned out very unconventional for a Jebus Cross. However, that's about the ending. At first, everything was normal. I started playing, observing 111 Nagas for a package of horses, Giants for a horde of skeletons. On 113, I buy Monere, who immediately gets elected as the father. Found a mini conflux, taken on 117 (didn't get around to it earlier) without losses. As a result, I break out on 123 with 2 Giants, 16 Ducks, 1 Angel, 170 Blue, 10 Nagas, 15 Archmages (from a box with 90 upgraded Magogs), and a single Archmage. I exit through 36 Hydras with a grail stack without losses. I underbought, or rather didn't upgrade due to lack of gold, 10 Golems, and 10 Mages remain unbought. It should also be noted that the Cape for magic limitation was looted at respawn and GB (it came in very handy, there was KO). Right after the GO, I see an already taken hive, which is discouraging, and after moving a bit towards the center, I see Tazik. Monere's stats are 10 12 3 7 (9 mana, Monere has Mass Haste and accordingly has 3 casts, also has simple Slow for 3, Earth is basic). Tazik is something like 9 8 5 6 (11 mana and also, as it turned out later, Mass Haste). He's standing on upgraded Magogs 1+4+1, 17 Beholders, 14 Monks, 12 basic Ducks, 68 basic Lizards. As a result of a devastating Fireball, I retreat with 4 Ducks, leaving 12 Cows there.
Here, luckily for me, my opponent doesn't go to respawn, where, as he later said, there turned out to be 5 more hives (that would have been a definite GG for me), but tries to break through to the center with 12 Cows, after some minor reinforcement from the castle. He immediately hits 19 Nagas for a Shield +6 and resources, they get morale, my opponent breaks out with half of the Cows. He runs further. Monere, already replenished to 70 mana with the Boots, rushes to the center. Cuts the chains with the horses. My opponent finally returns to respawn. On 125, I capture Inferno right after my opponent's GO. And on 126-127, we conduct 2 more Fireballs. On 126, my opponent attacks me; I'm standing with 6 Mages, 3 Ducks (1 Duck is with the horse scouting the roadless area of my opponent's respawn), 8 upgraded Golems (which essentially carried the fight), and Gargoyles. I'm attacked by 18 Flies, 3 Cows, and single Gnolls with magical support. 2 Cows retreat, leaving 8 Golems. After that, I was already sleepy, as it was 5 AM, and I attacked with 8 Golems, 3 Demons, and a Duck against 2 Cows in one stack, a Fly, and single Gnolls in a Citadel. I could have brought reinforcements from the castle which would have solved things. But I didn't, and I retreat with 2 Golems in 1 stack (since 1 was already on Sacrifices), and there's 1 Gnoll there! ))
Well, the epic part is that on his turn, my opponent could have turned the game around, using KO to get an Angel, but he failed.

Thanks for the interesting game!
