and who is that? I just didn't account for the presence of an Armageddon, there was no GM4 in the Castles, otherwise things would have been different
Well, and I didn't have any Nagabanks, Dwarf Cottages, or Medusa Lairs on three of the respawns or in the 1st treasure zone... Only Dragon Utopias, but I don't have money to burn + the army is not for a Dragon Utopia and the stats...
who is that? I just didn't take into account the presence of Arcomage; there weren't any in Castle in Heroes of Might and Magic IV, so things would have been different.
It would have been different if you had placed gold dragons, but as it is...
Or at least 1 ulius or 1 Griffin Conservatory in the treasure zone.
Or if the storms hadn't blocked the stone on the respawn...
In short, even though it was chocolate (well, part of the test definitely was sweet), I couldn't solve the problems in time. That's why I played so poorly.
On the 2nd, there was nothing to buy back into. The exits to the secondary zones were guarded by 20-49 storms + a block underground. On the 2nd respawn, there was a block of 90 marks with GS, I killed them, but there was another block leading to the treasure zone. And on the 3rd exit, there was a portal in the corner of a large respawn... But the game dealt me well, if I evaluate it overall...
Played without restarts.
Week 1. I take scouting and see an external dwelling of dragons, many crypts, 2 beehives and a Griffin Conservatory, plus Shakti in the tavern. Secondary hero — Conflux. By the end of the week 123456 at the Citadel.
Week 2. I take the external dragon dwelling. I break all the money structures, but everything, as luck would have it, is almost minimal.
Week 3. Shakti has offense, tactics, earth, pathfinding, defense, and logistics. I take two beehives and a level-2 Griffin Conservatory and run to the treasure zone.
Week 4. The treasure zone is poor, only took a level-1 Griffin Conservatory and a Pandora's Box for experience. I run to another treasure zone, take several beehives, the book of air, and a chalice. Towards the end of the week I return to main, to replenish mana.
Week 5. I ran to the opponent, taking a beehive on the way. In the end, a final battle where a leveled-up Shakti with 9 dragons and a large number of wyverns sealed the deal.
Group B, 23.12.2012. SeniorPomidor (blue, Rampart, Kirr, Shatki) defeated Rockmachine (red, Swamp, Tazar, Tazar), 2sm4d(3), 214
I confirm))) the game turned out well for Senior Pomidor, and not so well for me. In the first week, there are 2 paths from the castle: one to the center of the map, to the entrance to the dungeon, which is guarded by griffins, and the second path to the secondary resource. I didn't dare to attack the griffins in the first week, and I didn't think it was worth it - I didn't want to go into the dungeon, and I wouldn't be able to take the gold mine (which I thought was behind them). So, I sent all my heroes along the second path. As a result, I took the Rampart secondary resource, where I developed well with elves later on, but on the way, I almost lost my entire army from the first week. And then problems with money started. I built buildings and units, hoping that there would be enough money on the map to buy back armies, but in the end, there wasn't enough money, so I practically ran around the map without an army. As a result, I floundered like this for 3 weeks, and it was already clear that I would lose this game))) but I played until the end. In the end, in the 5th week, the opponent came to me with stats twice as high as mine and with an army twice as good as mine and defeated me))) Thanks for the game, Dim=):smile02:

You're giving up too soon. Yes, your opponents are more experienced and have played somewhere before. In this situation, it's better to analyze your mistakes, study the replays, and discuss them with your opponents. Skill is developed through tournaments and analyzing played games.

Both players took three restarts. I had a triple build – two native secondary units + a Naga. It was going well in terms of resources, and Nella got air and ranged units. The chains were building well, but we were already playing at 2 AM (which is very late for me), and I made a mistake on turn 114 and bypassed the guard – because there was snow everywhere. I went to the side and turned, even though it was obviously a different zone. I decided not to continue, and I think it was a technical loss. This was my 4th online game, and I didn't want to start with cheating.
Thank you for the game.
He could have accidentally bypassed a block. You could have returned and broken through it. Technically, you violated the rules, but I think you would have been forgiven...;)

We restarted almost everything that could be restarted; it consistently dealt out some really tough hands, and what we ended up playing was clearly also a sweet deal. With 3 stacks each for both Gurney and Dessa — that's 12 orcs total — from the lookout post plus scouting you can see 3 Griffin Conservatories, 2 beehives, an external dwelling for birds, and 2 external dwellings for ogres. The external dwelling was captured fairly quickly and easily, though not without a bit of butthurt; the nearest Griffin Conservatory turned out to be a level 1 and was taken on 117 — there the butthurt was already massive, because the autoresolve lost merely the entire overeat plus orcs and a few goblins, while I with my own hands could only take out 5 out of 6 birds. Still, an angel in the bag, birds in the citadel, orcs with the Belt of the Legion waiting for growth, and news arrives of a surrender from the other side — troops had been wasted and they couldn't scrape together enough for the birds, plus the opponent wasn't feeling well, so he decided not to continue and refused the auto. Thanks for the game.

We restarted almost everything we could; consistently very tough random drafts were dealt, and what we ended up playing was clearly also a treat. 3 stacks each for Gunnar and Dessa - total 12 orcs, scouting + recon reveals 3 Griffin Conservatories, 2 hives, an external dwelling of birds and 2 external dwellings of ogres. The external dwelling was taken quite quickly and easily, though not without a minor butthurt, the nearest Griffin Conservatory turned out to be a tier 1 and was taken on 117 - there the butthurt was already huge, because the auto-battle lost merely all the Overeaters + orcs and a few goblins, and with my own hands I could only take out 5 out of 6 birds, but nonetheless an angel is in the bag, birds are in the citadel, orcs with the Legion belt are waiting for growth, and news of a forfeit comes from the other side - troops were wasted and they couldn't scrape together enough for the birds + the opponent's state of mind was not at its best, so he decided not to continue, declined the auto. Thanks for the game.

Actually, I looked at the reports, and these aren't newbies at all. I think I jumped into the tournament too early. I'm asking to either replace me or acknowledge my defeat for the other players. I'll keep practicing for fun.
You shouldn't be so discouraged... adjust your mindset for fun... I specifically entered the M-200 tournament, and only XL... I would have even tried 2v2, but I won't fit within the time frame...
I lost in M-200, but I know what it is, and I'll play fun matches according to the M-200 rules, not necessarily on Haven. I'll play with real-life friends. In short, don't give up. Make saves and watch your own games from your perspective and your opponent's perspective, regardless of whether you win or lose. It will be easier to evaluate. Find an experienced streamer whose style you understand and learn by watching his streams until you start winning))) It's just a game, learn to not give up while having fun... it's much harder in real life ;)
