Posts from Favorites in battle! - 5 The Battle of Favorites! - 5

They were playing with the same starting conditions, and the heroes were also the same from the beginning, that's how it was designed.

yes, you're right, I forgot about the template.

Where is the report on the Fortress and Swamp game? The deadline was March 18...

We have save 126 on CM. We will try to finish it today.

KobRa (blue, Rampart, Kyrre, Tynar, Ivor) lost to Twaryna (red, Fortress, Tazar, Tazar) on smd3 at 142

Words cannot express my disappointment with this game. I played like a complete noob, not in my style, making only a couple of moves and engaging in a few battles on the first day. I played the wrong map, possibly the wrong build, and removed my favorite Jebus against the Swamp. In short, I was again one step away from winning, and I won't be able to settle the score with Jawdet this time. ( )
Regarding the game: there was absolutely no tempo. I lost my main hero on the seventh day – there was a terrible shortage of money, and I didn't have a couple of hundred coins for a ransom. I traded a weak hero with 11,000 gold for fifty horned demons guarding a dragon lair, leaving almost everything there; it was a stupid decision. On the second day, I was gathering money to place dragons in the castle. On the third day, I finally started breaking the enemy's defenses with my new main hero, Ivor, who arrived on day 131, but, of course, time had already run out. In short, it was more of a frustrating experience than a game. My opponent did everything at the right time, because even with such a "game" from me, 11 gold and the Book of Air would have looked threatening.
Thank you for the game!

21.3.2013: twaryna (red, swamp, Tazar, Tazar) def KobRa (blue, Rampart, Kyrre, Ivor) 2SM4d(3) 142

I took 1 restart and off we went.

111. Slow long roads, but in sufficient numbers - 3 directions revealed, all as needed. Lizardmen standing around, lots of gold revealed, a Dwarf Cottage, a Kurta +5, Gloves for horses (never picked them up till the end of the game). 5 heroes.
112. Roads are very long... I reveal the exit to a portal beyond 50+ archers, GO - giants and wizards, the entrance to the underground is off-road behind the crap. 7 heroes.
113. Tazar gets Logistics, I position to break through to the grass exit behind basilisks. Scouting, collecting freebies, 8 heroes.
114. I bring up a secondary hero, break through to a secondary town, run along the long road.. Tazar got Logistics upgraded.
115. I take a secondary town - Rampart. Deep in the respawn I find an external dwelling of lizardmen. There's also an external dwelling of gnolls on the other side. The respawn is large, lots of freebies, gold, Dwarf Cottages. But no Griffins Conservatories, no Hives, no decent external dwellings.
116. I mess around on the adjacent zone, Tazar got Air Magic.
117. I capture a Ring +1 HP. I find a Griffins Conservatory on the adjacent zone (turns out to be minimal strength), I recall Tazar home and run towards the portal behind the archers - there are 2 more Dwarf Cottages there. At home, basilisks and ducks in the citadel + a thousand, in the secondary town a thousand.
121. I upgrade flies, bring the meat.
122. Upgrade basilisks. Tazar takes 2 Dwarf Cottages.
123. I enter the grass secondary town. Along the way I pick up a clue for 6 wyverns. From an observation tower I spot Boots behind trolls. There's also a stable, but very far. The native treasure zone is also visible. Tazar got Offense.
124. I take the secondary town - Conflux, the Boots and the Arena.
125. I sit in Conflux to replenish mana, build the University and buy Earth Magic. The meat left to take the Griffins Conservatory, along the way I capture an Armor +5 SP.
126. I set up the chain awkwardly and the meat doesn't reach. With a hydra from home, Tazar captures +1 Knowledge and a Tree +1 Level.
127. I enter the treasure zone, beat 19 Champion creatures for a Sword +3 and an external dwelling of hydras. Tazar gets Tactics. At home, hydras in the castle.
131. Minor clue, I capture the gold mine, bring reinforcements.
132. Major clue, I free Grechka from prison, level 20.
133. I capture a Sword +2+2, a Dragon Utopia, check - triple. I decide not to attack, but to clear the treasure zone fully and make a delivery from Rampart (mistake not attacking, it was easily taken with the meat that was there in the end), I take a minor clue and a Pandora's Box with 10k gold.
134. I take another external dwelling of hydras, capture a Ring +1 morale and luck, a Rib Cage, a Cloak +2 Speed.
135. I take the Dragon Utopia. It gives a Sword +5 All, Orb of Vulnerability, Boots of Levitation, Pendant of Total Recall. I recall Tazar to Rampart to replenish mana. Tazar got Archery.
136. I recall home, bring the meat, upgrade wyverns, break the GO, kill an enemy hero.
137. I kill 2 enemy heroes, take an observation tower (I see 2 Griffins Conservatories, an external dwelling of horses and dragons), take the enemy main, kill another enemy hero.
141. I take hydras for upgrade, Tazar goes into the underground, kills an enemy hero and ultimately falls 1 step short of the enemy Inferno.
142. I take the Inferno, recall Grechka there, kill an enemy hero, reveal an untaken Dragon Utopia, take Dragon Utopia-2 with Tazar. It gives a beautiful set: Tome of Air Magic, Sentinel's Shield, and Golden Bow. On her turn, Cobra surrenders.

Thanks for the game!

Will only elves remain in the finals, or will the Swamp slightly "dilute" things, creep in, and consume them?

The first item on the plan – “dilution” – has been fulfilled by the Swamp.
As everyone has already guessed, we have a match to 2 wins: Javdet (Fortress) vs twaryna (Rampart). The loser will take third place in the tournament.
The players are active, so I hope there won't be any delays. The deadline for the first game is April 8th. Please submit reports immediately after each game, don't accumulate them.

I bounced back in the last one; although the odds were higher, anything can happen.
I played the first two in a VT style, pushing the tempo hard. In the 1st I was unlucky, in the 2nd on the contrary it was lucky that the mobs didn't kill me, and in the end we had to play a deciding game.

Unfortunately, Smka turned out to be the only compromise. After a good 1st week, an error on 121 decided everything—a lapse in concentration and I lose 22 cents and 3 grands for no reason. They weren't enough in the next battle in the medusa; they took a horse and another 3 grands. These grands weren't enough for the battle with gr hydras and the opponent. In the treasure zone, I saw the opponent's Crag with 1=1=1=20+ ducks. There was no reason to give them up to be torn apart by the ducklings, but I only had 5 angels, 8 horses, and 13 grands myself. I hoped for a lack of mana and that there weren't many ducks—but the opponent was doing great with that. 34 vivs for 124 is certainly a lot, plus everything lay compactly + boots under the city.

I played the 2nd one cleanly; perhaps I took an unjustified risk going into the thong Griffin Conservatory, but it was lucky it wasn't maxed. For a long time, there was info from the tavern that the opponent had no cities; I decided to take the boots in the treasure zone and pay a visit via ГО. An uninvited guest is indeed worse than a Tatar) and on 126 we are visiting the capital, and on 127 at the opponent's country villa. The opponent surrenders.

Well, the 3rd one was something else—we fought almost until 7 in the morning, my brain was working only reflexively, and the highlight was the 3 finals.
The 1st happened back on 131 when Tazik showed up in the treasure zone. An equal exchange, but they gave me money for buybacks and I run to the conservatory under the city. I was glad I didn't risk taking it on the 2nd week, +4 angels and go to the treasure zone. The same-olds quickly gave control, I buy earth in the last slot and see movement in the treasure zone. The meat advantage was great; the opponent buys back with 7 lizards but doesn't surrender. And here is the action—he comes out at the same spot with some slag like dwarves, and Javdet has no clue what this is for. A surviving battle-dwarf after the initial onslaught could have easily resisted Armageddon, but I got lucky and both heroes die. Fucking SOD lottery with digging folders:mad: :mad: :mad: But there are 4 minutes and 90k money. We dig. Nothing. And in the last seconds Tazzar appears in the tavern; I don't have time to buy him back, and it's turn 147:(
But Twaryna had fewer chances to dig something up—6k money and a few resources, but then again, anything can happen.
And tomorrow I see my dear Kyrryushka in the tavern:) A few vague moves, but then chains are built to repel cities and I get the long-awaited capitulation.

Thanks for the games.

Well, since you included TELEviewers in the report, why not add GoDa as well? Or does this only work one way?

Javdet, congrats! Unfortunately, yes, against the Swamp, this is the only compromise according to these rules in the mode.
I only saw part of the third game, I stayed up until 3 am, in the first battle Twaryna would have won if he hadn't rushed forward with everyone, but by waiting and killing the tent with an arrow and then attacking the elves with angels... But it turned out pretty well too, because he ran into the muddy area where he got EVERYTHING... and then he just stopped playing.

Since you included TELEviewers in the report, then include GoDa as well, or does it only work one way?

Sir, who exactly are you?
And please, take another look at the moment with the fail in the 1st game. I think GoDa was uncomfortable when I mentioned him)))

Since you included TELEviewers in the report, then also include GoDa, or does it only work one way?

It's better to beg the auto-moderator, almost crying:D

Mudik, you shouldn't judge about the auto-ban. I have my own understanding of the code of honor, and if I ask for an auto-ban, I don't have the right to refuse a similar request. Apparently, Tvarina doesn't think the same way, which, by the way, helped both you and us save time.

Sir, who exactly are you?

The same question might be asked of you by 600+ viewers of "Twaryna."

You played well; instead of an automatic loss, you achieved a decent compromise, and you essentially won the series.
I simply don't understand why such a sarcastic report was left.

I don't think we switched to a more informal tone.
Regarding the viewers:
I have nothing against the TV audience. But I still drew some conclusions for myself. In the future, I will only give out game hints to popular streamers individually; you can thank that idiot who decided to leak information during the game for this, and it doesn't matter that it didn't work out. The fact itself is important.
And viewers at 7 a.m. (when, for example, in Siberia, a person has slept, had breakfast, and after a cup of coffee, posted their insight in the chat) can, in principle, make decisions, when the brain is working at 20-30%. Although, again, this is purely individual; for example, Tvaryna can filter information. On the contrary, it is difficult for me to concentrate, which is confirmed by the moment I already mentioned. We are all different, and I repeat once again, I have nothing against your audience, as long as they don't interfere with the game.

P.S., it was funny to see the messages from these same viewers in the stream after the 2nd game, like "well, he got rekt").

P.S., it was funny to see the comments from these viewers after the second game during the stream, like "yeah, what's up, he got wrecked").

Well, they're just dumb, low-class viewers, what else can you expect from them? They would probably ask for even more pity if they were in your shoes.

Army of Tvarina restores order on HeroesWorld : omg :
