Is it really that important? ;) I've changed it to PowerSpot, is that better? :D

But on the PS, it's more important that the angels aren't on day 5, but you know what I mean. :D
Although, of course, I'm just being picky.

It's not about angels on the 5th day on PS, but something else entirely. :D

Don't complain too much about PS, there's an offline game going on right now, and they might give you a hard time for revealing it. :D :D

Just remembered how you and STRANNiK used to team up and play her.

What will the teleport skill be like? It seems to be the same...

Arandor, in 3.0, the teleport skill is powerful; it doesn't require a line of sight. You can quickly teleport an enemy tactician from their rear, shred them to pieces, and then finish them off with acid. It's simply wonderful :)

What are these secrets, esteemed masters? Please share – you've piqued my interest. As I understand it, the tournament mentioned by oxygen has already ended. :o

I’m not a grandmaster, but if my opinion is helpful, then on day 5, it’s most important to get the Grandmaster Patch, Grandmaster Diplomacy, gloves, and enough meat so that in a couple of days you’re ready to go to the center.

Death, in my opinion. It's difficult to choose on all levels, especially on the third. Both the demons and the vampires are very strong! For Nature and Might, the choice is difficult on the 4th level.

It's hard to single out any particular faction. But the main dilemma, in my opinion, is the Monks and the Knights. And I don't think I'm the only one who thinks so.

Death, in my opinion. It's difficult to choose at all levels, especially at the third. Both the offspring and the vampires are very strong! With Nature and Might, the choice is difficult at the 4th level.

in a game against a human player, the choice is clear, because movement speed on the map is always important, in my opinion:

with Death - 3rd level - vampires are definitely the best, and the 4th level - depending on the circumstances - both skeletons and devils are good.

with Nature - phoenixes are definitely the best - against a human player, they are almost always superior, and they are also faster and more resilient;)

with Might - you can think about it - if you need defense, choose hippogryphs, and for long journeys, to minimize time spent, choose thunderbirds.

It's difficult to single out any particular race. But the main dilemma, in my opinion, is monks and crusaders. And I'm not the only one who thinks so, apparently.

Well, this is hardly a dilemma - crusaders are definitely the best, and only if the 3rd level unit isn't going to be used in the final army (which is often the case) can you choose monks - they cost less, and it's easier to clear the map with them. You can also take them if you have an order mage with accuracy - but again, it's only a less troublesome option for clearing neutral creatures. And if you can't get accuracy, then monks are useless, in my opinion.

poisonous creatures are also sometimes useful, especially when you need to quickly build a 3rd or 4th level creature. And in the endgame, they are twice as useful.

Poison units are sometimes useful, especially when you need to quickly get to level 3 and 4. And in the endgame, they are twice as useful.

I agree, if you have the time to take them to the endgame, or if you don't need to go too far...
Also, if a level 3 unit won't be in the endgame, it's easier to get Venom units - you often don't have enough crystals for Vampires.

Venoms are also useful when you need to quickly upgrade a Castle to level 4! In that case, they are preferable to Vampires. If I'm not mistaken, in Equilibris, Venoms became much faster, not by a lot, but still. And you don't necessarily have to move them around; it's enough to move them yourself to the location of the expected events and only then join them to the main army, thus saving moves, days, and time. And the fact that Vampires were "nerfed" in Equilibris is already well known. Therefore, in my opinion, Venoms are preferable in most cases.

Therefore, in my opinion, Venom units are preferable in most cases.

I would say in 99.9% of cases! The remaining tenth of a percent applies to the case when a Vampire Lair is already built in the town initially. In that case, you don't have a choice. But I don't know of any maps like that yet. :D

Well, 99.9% of that is wrong. Vampires are faster, and they are only less effective than Poisonous units when dealing with a large number of undead or in battles against golden golems. Otherwise, vampires are much more reliable because you don't need a large number of them, and battles can be fought far from the heroes. The strength of Poisonous units in close combat is extremely low, so sometimes you can sacrifice 1 day for the sake of vampires.

Against Haven, who is better: Fire Dragons or Phoenixes?
