Posts from [МАТЧ] Wic vs HeroesWorld

Let's continue the discussion here... So, the following event is proposed: I will play against a team from this website. The goal is to create educational materials on the basics (and not only) of gameplay. All games, in addition to daily saves, will also be recorded with screenshots of all more or less significant moments, and a comic strip will be posted as a report, similar to the one made in the article about templates - http://www.cyberfight.ru/site/columns/56/article_56014/. However, if the previous one focused on reading the template, while all other elements of technique/tactics were ignored, here we need to cover this aspect as well. Working on such a report will take a lot of time, and the game itself will likely be faster. In addition to the report itself, we will also need to analyze mistakes. Both my own mistakes and the opponent's. If anyone wants to help with the reports, they are welcome. Match rules: 1) The game is played until 5 points (win - 1 point, draw - 1/2 point, loss - 0 points). The composition and sequence of opponents are determined by the captain of the HW team. There should be no more than 2 games with each opponent, and ideally, each game should be with a new opponent. 2) Game version - TE full 1.03q 3) Rules - we take the RP3 rules as a basis - http://www.forum.heroes.by/viewtopic.php?t=680&start=0. 4) Template - any for XL+-U. It is desirable to play different ones, not just 8mm6. I can provide a choice to the opponent. 5) We play without time control - so that we can have time to take screenshots, and in general, the quality of the game does not suffer. In the game, I recommend taking screenshots of everything, and then you can delete the unnecessary ones. If some important screenshots are missed, they need to be restored from the saves. 6) I am ready to consider alternative options for choosing Castles - in addition to the RP scheme, a randomizer + bets, you can also use full random or a standard draft. 7) The next game of the match starts only when the reports for the previous game from both players are ready (!). This is to prevent debts from accumulating. 8) To increase the entertainment value of the event, you can create a closed (from me) topic or section where the team and fans can follow the progress of unfinished games, discuss, and give advice to the players (but do not post saves). That's the idea. If anyone wants to participate, write. UPDATE. Currently, the following people want to participate: 1) Oelm - Spider 2) Pit - Balance, Jebus, 6lm10 3) KostyaN - Jebus, 8mm6 4) Hermit - Balance 5) LeBron - any template 6) Dreamcatcher - 8mm6 Another UPDATE. Current score: 2-0 Wic (red, Inferno, Marius) def Hermit (blue, Fortress, Broghild) @ Balance, 136 Wic (red, Stronghold, Tyraxor) def KostyaN (blue, Castle, Valeska, Pyre) @ Jebus, 127

I would play as Spider if I have time.

A very interesting offer. I would play balance XL-U, or Jebus, or, at worst, 6lm10. But not before June 18th.

Well, it's clear that this person really stands by their words. Some others (Captain) boast about how well they play Inferno, but when offered to play a match of Inferno against World, they go silent. It's a bit unsettling to play on a less familiar version (TE), but for the experience, I'd really like to try it. Any template of your choice from Wicc would be fine (but I'm particularly interested in Jebus Cross and 8mm6).

Well, you see—the person actually stands by their words, unlike some (Capitan) who first talk about how great they play as Inferno, but then stay silent when offered a match of Inferno against World:) .

It's scary, of course, to play on an unfamiliar version (TE)—but for the sake of experience, I would really like to try. Any map template of Wicc's choice (though Jebus Cross and 8mm6 would be especially interesting).

Well, since my last name was mentioned here—I'll speak up :)
Since then, I've played two games as Inferno—won one, and the second ended at the finale where I had full control (TP and DD against swamp meat).

Kostya, if you have the desire—you are most welcome—I'll teach you the manners of playing as/against Inferno ;)
and everyone else too. There were similar threads on the Heroes Portal, but it was set up interestingly there and they played not one-on-one, but many-on-many (so-called World Wars)—where the best heroes players of the former Union participated :)

The theme of one guy against everyone sounds a bit pretentious, don't you think?
and then they'll say that one guy won (or threw down a gauntlet to the whole portal, where I am also registered, by the way). If you are playing against the portal, imho, then throw your challenge at everything that moves. And what moves here are Heroes 2 and 4 and SoD and 5 :)
well, or change the thread title and go :)

PS. By the way, whoever has a desire to learn how to play 2 or 4—hit me up on ICQ (grandmaster of 2s, and in 4s I played quite well against Satan himself :)

Very interesting proposal. I would play balance XL-U, or Jebus, or, at worst, 6lm10. But not before June 18th.

6lm10 on TE can lead to mass restarts upon encountering an opponent. Because the opponents are very close, and there isn't much strong defense between them.

In the RP rules thread, I posted a modification of 6lm10 where blue and purple are swapped, and the distances are more reasonable there.

I want to try playing with the XL and L+U balance settings.

By the way, if anyone wants to learn how to play 2-player or 4-player games, feel free to contact me on ICQ (I'm a grandmaster in 2-player and I played well against Shaitan in 4-player).

4-player? Do you mean Heroes of Might and Magic IV?:rolleyes: Well, if so, I'll contact you in a few days.

any template of your choice;)

any template you choose ;)

S-U on a 2-zone map with fast roads.

And I call dibs on being the red Torosar :)

S-U on 2 zones with fast roads.

Who is that??:D

I'll play too. Template 8mm6. No master has analyzed my gameplay yet (except for Alex the Great, who was so impressed with my saves that he forgot all the polite words :D), and now there's such an opportunity :)

1:0

Wic (red, Inferno, Marius) def Hermit (blue, Fortress, Broghild) @ Balance, 136

Report with pictures will be posted later.

Thank you for the game.

Thanks for the game.

Confirmed. I didn't read the rules and didn't know that you could freely pass between the shifted guards through the passage.

Thanks for the game.

P. S. I didn't like the RP3 rules very much.
