Pit is the champion, a convincing and well-deserved victory, Vitalik took 3rd place. The game for 2nd place is currently underway between Matrosov and Favio.

there are prizes here too! Many thanks to Nagan for the New Year's tournament.
There's one match left for 2nd and 4th place, they're playing black. The audience support has increased with the experienced player MegaPs... it makes you think that Eric and House with Bishop might drop by!
Good luck to everyone.

Pita, congratulations on the victory! It was a fun finale :) Thanks to Lebron and Dirty for the restream!

A question for Vitalik. Wasn't it too early to give up? Couldn't he have taken the golden bow and the Consul? Maybe he could have held out a bit longer.
And also, why is the handwriting so terrible?

Pit for LM (blue, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def vitalic (red, Tower, Neela, Neela), 2sm4d(3), 131.
I took no restarts, opponent - one on the first day. There was also an early encounter.
111 - see the Griffin Conservatory, two normal roads to secondary heroes, free LeBron from prison - now have fairies for speed boost. Also have a Cloak of Velocity +2. The respawn is very small, poor, but there's a dwarf dwelling on the snow. Troglodytes are decent - 3 stacks, but with Lorelei.
112 - captured the Griffin Conservatory. Level 2-4, too early. Too bad, if it were level 1 I would have rushed on 114-115. Painted the tower.
113 - entered the dwarf dwelling. Maximum level. Well, I think I'll get wiped - I'll take a restart. Lost only about five Troglodytes, fine. Running to the second secondary hero.
114 - break through the guards, open the scout view. Poor Inferno. And on the road there are unpleasant blockers - ice elementals and lizardmen.
115 - break through the shooters, -20 Troglodytes. Take the town, run for the Boots of Speed.
116 - for some reason a horde of griffins (about 75) beat me, and I got wiped to zero. Fine, take an external dwelling of demons, recruit Shakti.
117 - with 12 demons I finish off the griffins, now have the boots. Building is bad - level 1-4 in the fort + portal in the capital and levels 1,2,4 in Inferno. Shakti - level 8 with expert basic skills and Earth magic.
121 - attack the demon dwelling, 40 there with Pit Lords, minus 2 demons. Very bad. Upgrade the remaining 23. Buy Dimer to rush the Griffin Conservatory, it's level 3, but the griffins get morale twice and I can't cast Meteor Shower in time.
122 - not sure what to do - besides demons, I have 50 Troglodytes. Run for the Cloak of +2+2 for magic and the dwarf dwelling.
123 - lucky, the dwarf dwelling is max again, but lost a demon. Teleport home, double my mana.
124 - here a cunning plan emerges. Mass Slow is available, you can smash the Griffin Conservatory with Lightning Bolt! Build the Mage Guild - Lightning Bolt is there. Take +1 Spell Power, run for the second stat boost.
125 - Shakti (4,4,7,6 (120)) with 22 demons, 50 Troglodytes, 11 Evil Eyes, and singles of Harpies enters the level-3 Griffin Conservatory. The plan worked perfectly, lost 4 Evil Eyes to morale and 2 demons from retaliation.
126 - thought about going into the treasure zone, but on the way to the opponent I see a Well. Plan changes. Capture +2 Speed, replenish mana.
127 - trade in case of need for buyout, gather army, emerge onto the adjacent grass.
131 - the opponent's situation was very bad, so upon seeing Shakti with Angels, he surrenders.
Thank you for the game.

Well, there were no problems after all,
With Petya... well, the one who plays LM...(aka Meganec)

Friends, let me announce a match between the CIS-2012 champion Stinger and the winner of the Moscow tournament Piton, with mandatory game broadcasts and reports.
Perhaps one of the most interesting confrontations in the heroes' world between two of the most talented SoD players. In March. I will definitely be present myself; place your bets and predictions. Game is best of 3 wins.

That's awesome! Will these be commercial matches? :D

2 Leader1

I don't know yet. I just attended the match discussion. Both are available in March, and both have agreed to the match. Wow, it's going to be a tough one:)))

Excellent. We look forward to it!

It seems I'm the only photographer here, and I even failed to capture the winner.
Well, I'll take what I can get (in the last photo, Vitalik is intensely battling Stiky, and behind him, Vik assists Matrosov):

Once, a similar match was held in Warcraft 3, between Moon and Grubby. In general, both promised that we would see such a match, so we're waiting. http://www.lki.ru/text.php?id=642

Well, we have what we have, and we should be grateful for it.

Oksana, thank you very much for the photos.
