KostyaN vs Gynnar 1:1
First match.

Me: Tower+Cit (berserk, ball, fire, defense) - titans, nagas, 1 genie, 50+ mages, bears, birds, ogres.

Nikolay: Dungeon+Ramp (fighter variant, can't say for sure on skills) - dragons of 2 types, unicorns, trees, pigs, cats, and minotaurs.

In the 1st round, mass haste and a normal beating of my troops follows, but there was a tiiiny but very important mistake: the dragons were placed next to each other, as if on purpose for berserk:) - that practically decided it, I cast berserk on them + unicorns and trees. Here Kolya came up with how to use my berserk to his advantage, and placed the remaining pegasi between the Black Dragons and the birds - a very beautiful move! But even that and the dispel on the Gold ones didn't help - the trees locked down the Black ones and the opponent decided not to continue. 1:0:smile02: !

Second match (this one was played with full random).

Me: Castle+Cit (+2 speed, Tactics, Earth, Defense) - Archangels, Cavaliers, Crusaders, bears, birds, ogres and 44 wolves (to remove the enemy's retaliation:D ).

Nikolay: Castle+Ramp (roughly the same, but Water instead of Tactics) - Archangels, Gold dragons, unicorns, Cavaliers, 33 trees, 40 phoenixes, Crusaders.

This was very stupid on my part:o . Firstly, why do I even need this Tactics? Secondly, I immediately placed the birds with the cavaliers under a blow (halved the unicorns with them and was happy like an idiot:smile52: ). The opponent's 1st cast also wasn't great (blind on the bears), but me, the fool, read something wrong in the TK reports and decided to use a trick of disabling the archangels for 7 rounds (I saw something like first Blind on them, and in the 2nd round immediately - Anti-Magic:D :D :D, when it turned out that even expert level doesn't work on enemy units - it was already too late:mad: !). Then they dumped Oil on me, and when I saw Water too, I realized what was up: :smile16: :( :( :( . 1:1.

PS. We also played a 3rd one, where due to unprecedented luck (a bunch of morale penalties from my necro dragons, double damage strikes from knights, and the Sands of Time again from my dragons on the titans...) and the inadequate play of sleepy Kolya, I even won, but I won't post it - if anything, we'll replay it;) .
PPS. Here, by the way, is that part from Mizrael's post where I read about Anti-Magic on enemy archangels:
"Mizrael - Javdet 2-0
First battle: Ramp-Inferno vs Tower-Castle. Took fire, offense, and defense, berserk, +4 spell, 40 mana, boots of resistance. After the wait, I expect a cast, they blind my devils - in response, blind on the archangels and the first speed in the next round is mine. Then I fly in with speed from the wait, they don't hit very hard under curse, anti-magic on the archangels." (cit). And I still don't understand what I did wrong - but Anti-Magic, as it was written, can only be cast on your own units:confused: ...

I confirm, Kostya ambushed me at night when I was already tipsy :rolleyes:. But we had a good game... In the first game, I messed up badly, and it was clear that my opponent would either go for Life Support or Berserk. But I forgot about Berserk when he started taking skills, and although I wanted to get Water, I got hung up on whether or not to take Armor (with Attack and Air skills). And when I finally took it, I only remembered about Water... I hoped he would go for Life Support, but that hope was in vain...

The second game was a real bloodbath, and my warriors turned out to be stronger...

Then we had a random game. First, two towers were generated, so we had to restart. Then, a Castle and a Conflux were generated for me, so we decided to generate them again, and that's when it all started... I took Life Support and Earth with Water...
But honestly, it was unbelievable bad luck! We were demoralized every round, and with powerful stacks! (sometimes dragons, definitely a couple of times (and even in the very first round), then Nagas, and not only was the stack good, but also when I needed to move away and attack from the other side so that the Death Knights wouldn't reach me, there were special abilities - the dragons immediately halved the Titans, and then the Death Knights hit several times with double damage). In general, my morale dropped to an all-time low, I went to get more beer, and as a result, I put my troops under the Black Dragon's fire a couple of times. The conclusion is that it's still better not to play Tower of Chaos when you're drunk and sleepy :o

bRitvo4kA (red, Castle, Dungeon) def Javdet (blue, Rampart, Dungeon), TC3
- both had mass haste, but the opponent also had water, which didn't help much.

bRitvo4kA (red, Necropolis, Tower) def Javdet (blue, Stronghold, Inferno), TC3
- managed to win against a Berserk with earth.

bRitvo4kA vs Javdet - 2:0 Victory! Thanks for the games.

Medium and Volodymyr, how are you doing? I don't see you online.

The draw will be tomorrow if I can find an outlet :)
There wasn't one on the train.

Oelm (Castle + Stronghold (melee, defense, ranged, air) def Volodymyr (Rampart + Inferno (melee, defense, ranged, fire))

Oelm (Dungeon, Rampart (melee, offensive, difficult, earth)) def Medium (Castle, Necropolis, (melee, offensive, ball, earth)).

The match went pretty easily. Medium, in my opinion, played poorly.
Thank you.

Final score 2-1.

I played all the group matches.

Zhenya, please share how to conduct the draw using a power outlet.
