A long time ago, there was a player here named vuzzza; if I don't have the nickname wrong, he played by roughly the same rules – the main thing was to make a move within 1 minute.

Sure, that's great! To make a move on the 1st minute and finish the game in about 40 minutes... The entire Heroes world is simply dreaming of such a luxury! But apparently, with such statements, there's nothing to do in our sandbox. :smile49:

By the way, for your information, even with such a time limit, he plays excellently!!! ;) In the early days of online play on HW, he was one of the strongest. The top three at that time were Uran and his brother Dudje, and Alex_R (of course, in different combinations). After them came Vuzza, BotiNki, Lopetos (I think that's how it was)... So, there's no need to make fun of him and so on. Especially since the first tournament on HW had a fixed time limit. ;)
It's like you're saying that players immediately started playing with 4-8 minutes per turn and beating everyone.
It's not funny at all if that's the case... It's annoying!

If someone organizes a blitz tournament with a time limit of 1-2 minutes, I would sign up:smile13: I think it would be fun to build a Capitol:D

Reper, don't bother! I know just as well as you do where and how he played! And no one was making fun of him, and certainly no one was calling themselves pro players. And Vuzza, not so long ago, was writing in the "let's agree to play 3v3" thread and was talking about any template, but about a 1-minute limit.

Added after 2 minutes
By the way, if I remember correctly, there was never a 1-minute limit in SoY, but I'm not sure.

That's right, Tyomich, 2 minutes is the standard.)))
I started playing that way, and almost everyone does.

I don't know what SoY is, but there is definitely one minute in SoD. I wouldn't play on a own minute even with a lighter, it wouldn't be any fun for me; I'd rather play CS or StarCraft instead...

Why write if you don't know? IMHO, sometimes it's better not to write anything at all than to write something like that. SoY (SoY) is a tournament, probably the very first tournament on Hv, the rules at that time were raw and completely ridiculous by today's standards... BUT that was then. Now, fixes don't matter at all.

P.S.: By the way, I think we should open SoY in the fall. Make it only for LoM. How does that sound? ;)

I think the fix is currently being considered almost as an offline update, and that's why there's traditionally less interest in it. But that's a mistake! The idea is interesting, but why this particular map?

A collection of tips from masters in the "Gameplay Tips" thread in one place:

XXX: Don't use the Meteor Shower spell (Heroes 3) if you are attacking, as the spell is defensive and your army will take more damage from it.

YYY: Hmm... Maybe you meant Armageddon?

XXX: No, I didn't mean Armageddon; that spell affects everyone. But Meteor Shower hits to the left.

:D

That's true.

But it's a shame!

The idea is interesting, but why this map in particular?

Considering that they are hardly played at all, it would be better to choose just one, which would make it easier to learn. Rather than having ten to choose from, and then 95% of the participants in this tournament giving up on nine of them.

Yes. I've noticed this trend; organizers deliberately include more maps so that players don't overplay them. And in response, players ignore fixed-map tournaments precisely because they don't want to learn too many maps.

It's better to have one map per tournament, but a good and well-designed one: LoM, Guardians, 7 Lakes, and 2-3 others, so there's still a choice. And let those who want to overplay it do so; it's even interesting to see what will happen.
This is better than when people don't play fixed-map tournaments at all; it's better for players to become familiar with the golden fund of mapmaking.
