Will, blue mage, Nur, defeats Executor, Necropolis, Lucretia, 2nd month, sun.
Nychka, level 3, from the very beginning, her magic power increased, so I decided to go to Chaos and also took Light and Storm, Wind against vampires. The final battle took place in Lucretia's field with 200 vampires, who were dealing massive damage with one hit, but I gradually defeated all the undead with ice spells. Thanks for the game.

I confirm.
The geese flew into the city immediately, and then the assassins after the gates fell - I didn't know who to deal with first. Both were unkillable ))
Thanks to you too.

Adv (Necropolis, Zoltan) defeated Sir_moz (Elves, Anven + Talanar) 2-1-3 Letos
Night battles 2 and 7.
Necropolis, even with a log, had a lot of sand, and the pace wasn't great.
In the end of the 3rd game, he only managed to get into the enemy's treasure room. The fourth week featured Elven dragons, which was a bit scary, and I got stuck in a huge sandy area.
Towards the end of the week, Anven emerged from the Global Order and almost reached my castle. I had to split my forces, and Anven ran back home.
At the beginning of the 5th game, in the Elf's castle, Emerald Drakes immediately one-shotted 600+ skeletons, but the staff with -20 attack, Banshee's Cry, and Zoltan eventually prevailed.
Thanks for the game!

Adv (Demons, Alastor, Krag) defeated dmitrik (Gnomes, Karli, Inga, Sinithar) 2-1-1 M3
Nychka 3.
At the beginning, things were going well; by the first week, I reached level 12, had machines with a tent, a log, and defense. However, out of everything I wanted, I only got BDP. The developed machines only appeared on turn 18, and I didn't get any scouts. I wasn't offered a ballista either, and I only took the last base on turn 23 – it was frustrating.
But I was glad that Krag was leveling up well in parallel.
I wandered around the map, not going where I should have. I was in two mini-trails, then in the Golden Trail, but I didn't find any good artifacts except for two pairs of boots and a dragon amulet from the Necropolis.
From the Higher Darkness, I got a Vampire and a Berserker, and in the shop, I also got a Berserker.
I decided to go to my opponent on turn 4, hoping to kill him with an Earthquake spell. It was a long way in a straight line, but the game generated adjacent locations, so I decided to jump over the wall, while sending Krag straight. I gathered all my resources, upgraded everything except the Spectres, jumped to 147, and stood at the Gnome's castle on 211, guessing the portal correctly.
There was a Warlock at the gates, but in the battle, the Pitfiends appeared in front of Sinithar, thanks to the amulet, and the Hit and Run tactic failed. Then came the battle with Karli.
Everything started normally; I gathered all the Gnomes in the castle, and the Pitfiends were there. Then the hero appeared, and I wanted to cast Meteor and Earthquake, but I got distracted by an instant message, and when I switched back to the game, I accidentally clicked the autobattle button. The computer went crazy; the Pitfiends merged, and the hero attacked with his hand :smile20:, an epic misclick. After that, all the Gnomes ran out of the castle, and the battle dragged on. The Gnome's ballista-machine gun did most of the damage, while mine shot at whoever it wanted. Luckily, the Gnome didn't have the Word of Power spell. In the end, I managed to win the battle, with 7 Pitfiends, 1 Spectre, and 40 skeletons remaining. The turn passed to my opponent, and Inga attacked me with 5 Draconians, a Shield of Protection, and Mines. Again, I was lucky that she didn't have Armageddon, and she died.
Thanks to Dima for the game; we settled the minor issues.

Adv (Demons, Alastor, Crag) defeated dmitrik (Dwarves, Carli, Inga, Sinitar) 2-1-1 M3

It happened. Tough for a dwarf without meat and artifacts. I was moving briskly, but searched for the treasure zone for a very long time, scoured both MTs, found all possible entrances to my own adjacent zones, and finally saw the entrance to the treasure zone at the farthest end of the farthest zone) and there were 98 witches with direct arrow, I got trashed back home and the demon hopped over. My development was ideally good, but I didn't get resistance, so against darkness and chaos pits there are no means. Two good support heroes, but Inga didn't learn top-tier runes in 16 levels, Sinitar didn't get OU and as a result the warlock ended up last in the turn order and couldn't even take a turn, and there were 17 SP, boosters, and an enhanced spell. But nonetheless the dwarves fought stubbornly, but this is Adv, if he came to the castle then it's over for me))

Thanks for the game.

Stefan (blue team, Necropolis, Kaspar) won against XREH (red team, Dungeon, Kifra), summer, week 6, random map.
And then he cast the first spell from the Oracle unit with Armageddon's Blade, and 20 undead units were destroyed :smile04:. But 4 remained. I was shocked. I somehow survived by mistake.
Thanks for the game.

Stefan (blue team, dark elves, Kaspar) won against XREH (red team, league, Kifra), summer, week 6, random.
And then, he just unleashed the first Armageddon spell from his Overlord, and 20 undead units were wiped out :smile09:. But 4 remained. I was in shock. I somehow survived by mistake.
Thanks for the game.

I handed over an absolutely clear victory due to sheer stupidity. Kifra was very strong with 36 speed and 285 mana. When the Necromancer emerged from the Gate, I decided to try a trick with Fury and Vampire Lords. I asked the seemingly trustworthy player if I could buy my way out after the Armageddon spell, and I believe I received an affirmative answer. I checked with a Roach for the presence of Amulets and attacked Kifra against Kaspar, without hesitation, I cast Armageddon, after which I didn't find myself in the tavern. I was upset and didn't continue. To win, I only needed to cast Tea and Armageddon, which I would definitely have done if I hadn't been so sure that I would find myself in the tavern... However, I should only blame myself; the victory of the team depended on me. I let the team down, I let Adv down, I broke the mouse, but in the future, I will remember this mistake.

KillAndAction (Humans, Dugal, and Vitia) defeated Zaknafyen1985 (Academy, Hafiz, and Ora) 2-1-4 last summer. Dugal, using a log and a mage with bows, quickly gained experience but couldn't find the treasure. Vitia gathered resources and gold. He trained 3 knights and archers. The opponent, after several unsuccessful attempts to break through, surrendered. Thanks for the game!

ABKSever (yellow, demons, Grog, blue) defeated Noom (green, humans, Iris + Axel, red). 242. Full random, both took one resource each, two dwellings 1-2-4, evenly matched, but the demon has a slight advantage. The game progressed at a moderate pace; defense was given at level 20, and at the end of the third week, he entered the enemy's stronghold – they gave him a tome of light and light, he cast darkness on the mentor, and the stronghold itself was weak (no swamps or temples, and no artifacts for initiative either). He went to the second stronghold, which turned out to be excellent, with two maxed-out temples, a maxed-out swamp, and a mini-swamp. He cleared it out, and at the beginning of the sixth week, he reached the human through a gate, took the castle, and then they ran around for a couple of weeks; the human, passing the meat along the chain, managed to regain his castle, and then I, passing the meat along the chain, managed to catch the vulnerable Iris. Thanks for the game.

(Green team) Noom (Red, Castle, Axel+Iris) lost to (Yellow team) ABKSever (substitute sanches) (Blue, Inferno, Grok), 242, TE 6.1.1, random huge (spider)

We played by full random rules. First I restarted Castle vs Wizards. Then my opponent didn't want to play against my red Dungeon. We played the third map - at the start Axel+Elena with Dougal in the tavern, and a Necromancer in the prison. External dwellings 1-2-4. I immediately captured a camp of mercenaries with two cats, though I lost one right away when I necro'd spirits on centaurs. I decided to level Axel with Shield and Mist. I broke through adjacent zones in the first week, cleared the one leading to the treasure zone in the second, and broke back home. On day 132 I reached the resource zone - sand. I had to take Logistics with Pathfinding. I upgraded archers, cleared the resource zone, but didn't dare fight into the treasure zone in week 4 - I didn't have enough gold to buy growth and not enough mana even for one Shield. I broke back home and went to the center. It was rich enough - I got gold to buy growth and train. On day 211, the Inferno hero broke home, bought all the chaff, and long turns began - I decided he was hitting ГО and sat at home for almost the whole week - ran around leveling Iris with trophies. On day 214, my opponent appeared in the second treasure zone - on day 221 I bought out, moved the chaff, trained monks, and went to finish off centers to level Iris and find a path to the Inferno hero through the center. On day 222, the Inferno hero came out of ГО (I had no option to fight him without vision - he had 80 Archmagi, 20 Angels, and 44 Titans) and captured an empty Castle. Threatening his home Castle on day 227, I lured the Inferno hero out of mine, recaptured it, trained monks, bought growth, and went to further level Iris. The Inferno hero killed all my cockroaches, but Axel and Iris survived and threatened to capture the Inferno and Castle towns respectively (I split the chaff into two parts). Unfortunately, Grok caught Iris with the majority of the chaff, which was standing in bushes one day away from the castle, and after that I had to surrender. Thanks to my opponent for the game.
And thanks to the organizers for the tournament - I think it's a fairly successful formula where everyone played against more or less equal opponents.

KillAndAction (Humans, Dugal, and Vitya) defeated Zaknafyen1985 (Academy, Hafiz, and Ora) 2-1-4 last summer.

Dugal, using a log and a mage with bows, quickly gained experience but couldn't find the treasure. Vitya gathered resources and gold. He trained 3 knights and archers.
The opponent, after several unsuccessful attempts to break through, retreated.
Thanks for the game!

Confirmed.
