Warlords tournament

I would play.

It’s good that Vistrit is gone. There’s a chance to win now.

Don't even say it, Heroes fan. It's like it ended up in the section for the third game, haha.

The section about the trio has long left its viral mark in the neighboring thread. The quarantine was breached a long time ago.

That's precisely why those sturdy, low-tier units become even less relevant later on.

The key with the Lizardmen is that this very sturdiness allows you to amass a larger number of them by the late game. Archers suffer much more from retaliatory attacks due to their lower health and defense.

If you're fighting other archers, then you
1) either rely on speed, so your crossbowmen go first. And ideally, other units too. Then there won't be much resistance.
2) or you don't take crossbowmen. The Castle has griffins and knights for such battles, and angels from the conservatories. Plus, monks shoot well and don't have defense problems.
In my opinion, that's how it is... Also, it should be noted that there are fewer ranged units in the game.

There are different types of ranged defenses. And skirmishes with other players shouldn't be disregarded either.

duel Swamp vs. Castle

In short, you need to resolve your dispute on the battlefield.

As far as I remember, we had something similar before. I think I won or was close to winning that time. But when we played Fortress vs. Inferno, you won. Because instead of artifacts, I kept getting scrolls.

But yes, I'm for the tournament. But it's better to play with random factions. So that I, like Aretz in Vesnot, can always attribute a loss to a weak new faction. Although, Aretz picked the Caliphate in Vesnot himself, and didn't randomize it.

Vesnot

Heh, after my impressive results in the last three (?) "random Vesnot" tournaments, it feels like playing chess.

Believe me, I understand you. In Spring, I at least made it to the finals. And I didn't lose too badly.

We need to conduct a poll regarding the tournament and organize it if there are enough participants. I don't even know which game would attract fewer players – Heroes or Warlords.

About the Warlock heroes.

Pirates don't really have overpowered creatures; rather, they have powerful heroes (at least, they used to): Cassiopeia with a bunch of fairies (similar to Shakti, but with higher speed) and Jeremy with an overpowered cannon. But it seems this duo has been nerfed (I might be wrong, I haven't been following the news lately).
And yes, the swamp in Haven suffers a bit because instead of the beloved snails, all sorts of "zephyrs" (for cyclops) and other phoenix-like creatures drop. On the other hand, there are three stacks at the start, and fans can pick Bron (although his number seems to have been reduced).
And yes, you can play as heroes. Personally, I haven't played online in a while. Although, when I remember how long the matches lasted, and that this was the main reason I stopped playing...
