Our game with Valentok on the site, version 2.1.5, I think, we’ll try to finish it tomorrow.

shoock13 receives a technical defeat for not showing up for the mandatory rematch date.

Therefore, congratulations to the "troglodytes in the mist" team on winning this tournament. The official closing and congratulations will be at the end of the week. For now, you can congratulate each other :)

:smile03: Thank you all for the wonderful game!

I want to thank everyone for the games and R55Max for the excellent tournament and its organization!!!:smile20:
The tournament was certainly tough, as I had to worry not only about myself but also about my players:), but I really enjoyed our practice sessions, discussions, lots of transmissions, analysis of game strategies, and much more. The good play of my team's players + analysis of all mistakes and shortcomings and correcting them later gave us good results:smile20: Those are the emotions))
In general, I congratulate both Egors on their first victory in the tournament and the reward:) ! And I wish you good luck in future tournaments!!

P.S. and who knows, if there is ever such a tournament again, I already know where to find a couple of excellent players :smile02:! well, now let's party))) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byY6fGaK8vQ .

We didn't have time to finish the last game with Valenok, ended halfway through my turn on 2.1.5
So about the game, opp took 2 rests I took 1...my Necro was dealt against his Castle on 8mm6a, roads are fast, there will be 100+ skeletons...let's play! started normally, on the first turn I ran into a Conflux computer which turned out to be a builder and hit me for 2000 but died like a warrior:) ...place Faerie Dragons +10 and on the first day I run to the Griffin Conservatory, on day 122 I break a 3-stack conservatory with small losses, then I run to the unicorns and the army goes to another conservatory. on day 123 I broke a 2-stack conservatory, also with 5 angels and the rest of the crowd I break the Griffin Conservatories I don't remember what they gave. in the second Pandora's Box behind the Griffin creatures they gave experience and I leveled up the scout hero, then leveled up Earth...the army goes the other way while the main hero is ready for splitting...reds spotted, they don't attack they run away, I leveled up Earth for the second hero and then I run to his secondary hero...caught him and crashed there...then through viewings I run to the Castle, there I split up again and while I figured out who went where, he ran off, I found a Dragon Utopia on the way...not in a hurry to chase, I run to the Dragon Utopia, broke it, gave a Sword + 12 and Boots of 15% Magic Resistance, build a Merchant in Conflux and there are Boots of Speed...seems not so bad, but the reds ran away, I run after them...ran for half of week 3, at the end of week 3 I grabbed a Dungeon and on the swamp from my spawn a Dragon Utopia is also visible...I grab it, meanwhile opp broke the Dragon Utopia and flew over to the Dungeon and then through DD grabs my capital :eek:. Nothing to be done, total disaster...running back is completely pointless because with Boots and the scout hero I still would have run back who knows when, and there they already started recapturing my towns...I have one idea - I saw 2 computer scout heroes in the underground, I thought they would recapture the reds' Dungeon and I would grab the Naga Bank, trade with the scout heroes and with the Diplomat's Medal I would buy my way right into the Dungeon village where a piece of the Ogre Utopia was spotted, on the next turn 1 computer died at the Dungeon and another ran down, I approach the Dungeon hoping to break it then use the scout hero to send the Naga Bank back to the main hero and buy off the computer, but here the computer attacks the reds' Dungeon and dies:( ...the whole plan collapses but another computer runs out:)...meanwhile I used the scout hero to reveal another Utopia on the sand, I watch the replay, there is a good passage to it, and I know the red player knows about it because there were chains there, I urgently buy another scout hero to go there...and I remember I have Nomads in the secondary town and the scout hero with Nomads runs to the reds to buy a truce...in short, the main hero buys a truce in the village and grabs 1 Utopia, they gave medium rewards but there is money and this scout hero with Nomads buys a truce and the army is transferred to the second hero who gets to the exact cell and breaks a 3-stack Utopia and there they gave КЗ and a Helm + 6 All :smile20:...even had 200 spell points left for Portal and I portal to the Dungeon and the main hero goes there...well, then there was friction...there were attempts to catch up to opp but it turned out he had 2 DDs and I thought at moments I would catch him as he ran to a far distance, I decided to build the Mage Guild since I needed DD to catch him and I already had Flight which I found right near the town and opp didn't take it:) ....then I find a DD scroll also right near the road and I send the scout hero and the main hero through the Cyclops dens to build the tower and I farm skeletons...well then with mega tempo I cleared everything necessary and trapped the reds, I wanted to upgrade the Liches and skeletons, farm about 500 of them and go for opp but we finished:)
Thanks for the game!!!
P. S. in the later stages there were long turns so I didn't manage to record some saves. Good luck everyone!

gratz!:cool:

Thanks to R55Max for the tournament! Thanks to all the participants for the games! Especially to everyone in the flash-off – it was intense (I played almost everyone and had very close and interesting matches). Also, thanks to Vitaly and Yegor for their support and for carrying the team so well! It was a lot of fun! By the way, no one managed to beat Vitaly throughout the tournament – a great teammate!

Congratulations, you played great, you deserved it!

I'll share the last save with a shuk on Jebus Cross. My setup was absolutely fire. On turn 124, I was coming out at full speed through GO with 60 Monks and 3 Angels, with the Book of Earth and Fire.
The opponent got absolutely nothing from the map, 1 external dwelling of Demons + Gogs + 3 Hives and a Griffin Conservatory.

It's time to wrap up the tournament, summarize the results, draw conclusions, and gather stones.

I want to start by saying that the idea for this tournament wasn't just mine. We started developing it with CryptoNight. Later, I had to continue alone because Andrey's interest shifted sharply towards the VT version.

There were undisciplined players who disrupted the tournament with their inaction. In particular, I express my displeasure to player PlayHeroes_HP. He ruined 4 tournaments in a row with his withdrawals. I don't recommend accepting this participant into future tournaments; he has been added to the
ХВ blacklist

- The regular participant in online tournaments, bRitvo4kA, disappointed me. During the second part of the group stage, he didn't respond and was unavailable, which led to his disqualification. Previously, in other tournaments, I also noticed him regularly falling behind. Disqualified

- Kassian greatly let us down. He deceived us twice in our agreements and didn't play a single game in the group. He was disqualified

- Player Marduk was also disqualified from the tournament due to insufficient activity and complete lack of communication.

- During the tournament, AK couldn't stay out of it:

Message from NumOne:
Based on all available data, it was established that in many tournament matches, instead of Vigo, another player - vitalic, the world champion for maphacking - played with Vigo's consent. There are also numerous suspicions of maphacking by Vigo/vitalic.
In this regard, AK decided to disqualify player Vigo from the "Everyone Against Everyone" tournament for unfair play and impose a penalty of 50 points for violating the rules and falsifying tournament results, and will not allow him to participate in future tournaments held on HeroesWorld.

- Several players withdrew from the tournament; I would especially highlight shpilenger and Dimast. There was no valid reason for their withdrawal. One simply lost interest in playing, and the other disappeared from communication.

Now, let's talk about something pleasant.

147 games were played.

There was a lot of competition during the group stage, and we had to calculate additional indicators. The playoffs were interesting, and there were some unexpected results, just like the group stage brought.

Special thanks to the new players who joined the tournament as replacements: MaxGor, Oskolok, 'no1_knows_me', VanjaM, HellLight, Tag, d-neez. You became an integral and important part of the tournament.:smile20:

I must also express my gratitude to two captains - BA/IEHOK and Gomunguls. Guys, despite our disagreements, it was a pleasure dealing with you because you constantly tried to resolve issues for the entire team and guide them. This was truly felt. I can't imagine what your teams would have achieved without your responsible behavior. As cliché as it sounds, you led your teams to the final, and that was well deserved in terms of your attitude towards the task.
Kilgor, Yegor Korobeynikov - just so you know - you are champions :) You showed a high level of play; without you, the captain would be sailing on a leaky boat!

darkello, shoock13 - you did everything you could; I'm sure success awaits you!

Also, I cannot fail to thank our judges: Pit for LM and Gomunguls. It was hard work, no doubt about it. Thank you!:smile02:

My team lost to the finalist - team InTeam. Congratulations to InTeam on reaching the final; it wasn't easy.

I wrote this post from memory; please don't get angry if I forgot to mention someone or something.

And now, the most exciting part:

"Trog lodites in the Mist":smile49:
- Gomunguls :smile49:
- Kilgor :smile49:
- Yegor Korobeynikov :smile49:

Guys, you are the best! Enjoy yourselves because it's not that easy to become better than everyone else, even within a tournament :smile44:

Now we can express emotions, words, blah blah blah and all sorts of nonsense, but as soon as the smoke clears, the moderator will come... and archive the topic

And what about the MVP of the tournament?

I completely forgot! :)
Unfortunately, I couldn't arrange for this award to be displayed under the avatar; still, the 1st prize should be presented officially, but within the tournament, it is certainly necessary to highlight this, and I hope that this award will be added additionally to the information field of the awards exhibition.

It's nice to read the summary))) I want to say that both pros and cons are an integral part of any endeavor, so everything went even well!
I was glad to hear about the MVP. To be honest, I treat it with a smile, because without my players, such a result would not have been possible.
Thanks again to everyone!!! :smile12:

- There were withdrawals from the tournament, and quite a few players were responsible for this. I would particularly highlight shpilenger and Dimast. There was simply no valid reason for their withdrawal. Specifically, one simply decided he no longer wanted to play, and the other simply stopped communicating.

You're writing some nonsense. I played 7 out of 8 games completely. The last one was on a save, I hadn't been around for a week, and that's why it happened. No one withdrew from anywhere else.

You're writing some nonsense. I played 7 out of 8 games completely, and the last one was on a save file. I was away for a week, and that's all. I didn't withdraw from anywhere.

Look more closely at what's written in my message. You didn't respond to your opponent, you didn't contact me, and that's how you distinguished yourself. Even disqualified people contacted me afterward, some even apologized.

...another one just disappeared from communication

You disappeared without a word, and when you came back, you didn't say anything. That's what I meant. Do you think it's good that you didn't play the game that was decisive for the team? It's WORSE than withdrawing because you let everyone down and didn't find a replacement. If you had played and won, you could have still pulled through in the third match.

There was no official withdrawal because your team lost and was eliminated primarily because of you, and I simply didn't write "disqualified" in red letters. That's what stuck in my memory. In any case, it doesn't reflect well on you.
