Siberian Championship in Heroes of Might and Magic III. Auto-translated

Congratulations to Hellight on the victory!

"This is perfect for us."

Dear viewers and supporters, please be patient, we will try our best to recreate all the events, at least through photographs, but for now, my camera is a mystery to me; it probably stayed there along with both of my laptops)))

For now, I will be brief and say only two things:

1 - There was a lot of positivity; I laughed like crazy for days, until my head hurt! A ton of memorable phrases were born, which will continue to haunt me for a long time. I have enough energy to get to Minsk))) Thank you, friends, for that!

2 - I was very surprised by the game of Anton, aka HellLighT, who is now the Siberian Champion 2013. I didn't even think that we had such players in Siberia. He is simply amazing! He not only crushed everyone in the tactical competition - he was the only one who won all the battles, and quite quickly, but also showed A-game in all his tournament matches.
A WELL-DESERVED VICTORY FOR A SIBERIAN - THIS SUITS US PERFECTLY!!! (c) HOORAY!!!

If you find any errors, please let me know, and I'll correct them.

A few words about the streams.
Unfortunately, there were fewer streams than I expected. There were many technical issues, which meant that only two recordings were made by me, and one by Lebron (I don't know if he saves the recordings on Twitch). I couldn't comment on the semi-final myself because Merlin's charisma is unbeatable :D. I was just handling the technical issues (OBS settings, etc.). Also, during the match, my friend, who is also the driver of the "papal" (championship) UAZ, Ivan aka Vinnivan :D, joined the stream. He doesn't play Heroes, but I'll keep encouraging him to join us ;), and he was better than me in the tactical contest :D:D

I'll gradually share my thoughts; I won't be able to describe so many emotions and impressions in one go.

P.S. They say that Lizard is good at poker :D

And they also say that 1 guy came from Novokuznetsk, specifically to play poker! :D

Flying home, I sincerely hoped that my plane would crash. At least one of the two, since I was flying with a layover in Moscow. Such mega bad luck, both in Heroes and in poker, and in total – it shouldn't exist in nature. Only two things bring me joy: I don't have to comb my hair, and I have no desire to play these stupid games. Big respect and gratitude to the organizers; I doubt I could pull this off in Minsk. I can't do anything anyway. My stupid bald head doesn't even know how to take a Crypt with a Castle. I took a flask of cognac to work and am just getting drunk, looking at the rain outside the window and not talking to anyone. Maybe I'll kill someone soon. I have the perfect hairstyle for it.

Kostyan, cheer up! Your hair will grow back by the next Chump tournament! And we need you alive; we still have to go to Minsk in May!!! ;)
Don't get old! I've already played these games for at least 5 years! But you sing and play the guitar amazingly – we can't do without you! :-)

I shouldn't have sat down at this computer to play! Dirty brought a camera, and I see there are only a few photos. I should have been doing something useful, properly covering the tournament online, taking pictures, and preparing food! It's become difficult to play; I have to remember a lot, strain myself, and by the end of the 2nd game, I simply hated these heroes. At that moment, I should have been doing other things. Well, never mind, let's forget the blues, I'm posting what I have, I hope others will have better quality/quantity of photos...

In the hall


Nighttime fun


Dust is cooking.


"They saw a Yeti here, and even LeBron!!! (c)


Solyanka (a type of soup) in Dust's style.


A small feast.


At home, the final.


There were no saunas, no fun, I didn't even take many pictures. Post what you have, don't be shy!

Basically, on the way home. The UAZ made it safely, gave us a chance to rest, and then refused to start again. XD I had to disassemble the starter, but that's a completely different story.


-_- Anton shoved his viruses into my lovely machine.

Now, the archive is being uploaded, and there will be a link to all the photos I took, without any selection, and the final video. I'll compress the video to make it smaller.

The disk says there are viruses there... Possibly... Clean it yourself. I'm taking the laptop to the doctor for an examination... Oh, those gay parties. :P

I'm uploading and processing the photos; almost everything will be available tomorrow. Thanks to everyone; you're all awesome!

I hope Vinnivan won't mind if I post a few photos from his archive, because not everyone will want to download 600 MB (by the way, Kaspersky didn't detect any viruses).

-_- Antosha stuffed his viruses into my beauty.

Hehe, well, this is another masterpiece!!! :D

P.S. I feel very sorry for you guys who don't understand what all these catchphrases are about – it's just funny.

Everything was great, I don't have time to explain, but the event was definitely a success! Now I just need to find some time to sleep.)))

Everything is great, I don't have time to explain, but this is perfect for us! Now I just need to find some time to sleep.)))

I'll make a small correction, I couldn't resist ;)
