It makes more sense to compare without magic. Otherwise, you could even win with a Goblin against a Monster.

That's right. But for the sake of completeness, it should be 10x10. In a 1x1 battle, the speed parameter wins, which isn't very interesting.
So what will you prove with this? Why only 10 vs. 10? Make it 10 vs. 10, 100 vs. 100, and 1000 vs. 1000, and then see who wins in total and draw conclusions based on that... And the turn priority here is irrelevant – all monsters of level 7 have different speeds, except for the Behemoth and Hydra, but who will win between them is not even a question...
Ley, agree that whoever strikes first has a significant impact. I should say that I haven't tested 100 Chimeras against 100 Archons, but I will test it today... But for some reason, it seems that whoever strikes first will win.
In a battle of 100 vs. 100, speed is even more important than in a 1 vs. 1 fight. Whoever strikes first will immediately kill a certain number of monsters, meaning the counterattack will be with fewer than a hundred units. In a 100 vs. 100 archmage battle, they will tear through everyone, except for phoenixes, if you take 200 of them (because their growth rate is twice as high :).
You have quite the way with words... If we reason as you do, then monsters would always win, but they don't have turn priority, so monsters can only attack first in one single case - with Hydras, and even then, only when they are attacking.
To draw a meaningful conclusion, you need to reason based on the unit's speed, not on who attacks first - that's silly, IMHO.
That's exactly what I'm saying: an objective assessment of any creature shouldn't be based on who attacks first, because there's no point in that. If a unit has turn priority, why should it attack second?
