How do you play if your strategy heavily depends on whether you get the Earth skill at the beginning?
If you get Earth at level 4 and receive the slow effect, you can conquer objectives in the first week that a player without mass slow can only conquer in the second week.

So, how do you play this game? (you can't)

How can you play if your strategy heavily depends on whether you get the Earth element early on?
If you get the Earth element at level 4 and receive the slow effect, you can clear objectives in the first week that a player without mass slow can only clear in the second week.

So, how do you play this game? (You can't)

The physics guide states that a Warrior gets an element every 4 levels. If an element appears earlier, another element will appear in the next 4 levels. If the Earth element doesn't appear, switch to another element or level up a Mage, as Mages get an element every 3 levels. The physics guide explains this.

It has long been a well-known (though niche) fact that the magic system needs further refinement. In World Tree, for example, Town Portal was removed from Earth magic (and moved to Fire). And Slow was on level 2 (I would move it to level 3). But in Shades of Darkness, it's clear that nothing like that will ever happen. And judging by all appearances, Heroes of Might and Magic VII won't see such changes either. At least, the current situation is definitely that. So, we just have to play as it is. There's not much else to play.

Necropolis was severely nerfed in the update, to the point where it's almost useless. The upgrade is good, but there's no time to build it on day 1.

today, they didn't distribute the slow spell again.
It wasn't available in two Castles and about 10 Sanctuaries.
Heroes with the slow spell also didn't show up.

So, instead of taking cons and going for 121, I left the game and uninstalled it.

Post the starting save, and I'll show you how everything falls apart there without the slow effect.

Unfortunately, I deleted all the contents of the folder with Heroes 3.

You don't need to prove anything to me. I've repeatedly seen how Hell suffers on Jebus without slowdown, even though he's one of the best.

No one denies that earth magic is a key skill in the game, especially on Jebus. So, are we just not going to play now? People seem to be managing somehow. :rolleyes:

He struggles. But he doesn't eliminate Heroes; he tries to win without Slow. And often, he succeeds.

So, what now, should we just stop playing?

I choose not to play

People aren't managing
People are writing that the games are decided in a one-sided manner in the finals of tournaments; this is the essence of this terrible game.

It's like a poker game with a hand lasting a couple of hours

They suffer. But they don't delete Heroes; instead, they try to win without using Slow. And often, they succeed.

But where else can they go?
Everyone who is deeply involved in this terrible game is already forced to play in any case.
For less dedicated players, enduring this pain will be unbearable.

By the way, often a bad start in terms of territory leads to surrendering on the first week in games with stakes.
