Opps didn't get control in the Mage Guild and surrendered. GG thanks for the game.

Thanks for the game!

So, when are we going to start the battles? Some pairs haven't played their matches on time, so how can we have new ones? Please update the bracket...

This is a save file of your opponents' game. They will finish it this week. I will update the bracket later.

Against Grindan with 900+ mana, the opponent had nothing.

How did he even get that much mana?
Is it 45+ knowledge and double mana?

I think some intelligence was involved here.

Intelligence + double mana = 4x mana?
I thought double mana depends on knowledge, not on the maximum mana reserve.

Intelligence + double mana = 4x mana?
I thought double mana depended on knowledge, not on the maximum mana pool.

It doubles the current maximum mana pool.

How did you get so much mana?
Is that 45+ knowledge and double mana?

23 knowledge + intelligence + double mana.

Avada Kedavra!

BA/IEHOK (blue, Swamp, Tazar) + Satyr (green, Necropolis, Tant) def Palach_HP (red, Stronghold, Kreg) + Redwhait HP (brown, Dungeon, Shakti) teamwork 117

Reached level 115 with 45 monarchs and 1 angel. In the center, we focused on morale, fire shields, and all sorts of other things I was doing, but we gathered the Orb, Sword +5 all, Bible, and on level 117, we overwhelmed the approaching Kreg. There were 8 angels and some minor units, but they had no chance.
Thanks for the game.

Reached level 115 with 45 Monarchs and 1 Angel. In the center, we bit down on morale, fire shields, and all sorts of other things I was doing, but we gathered the Orb, Sword +5, Tome of All, and at level 117, we overwhelmed the arriving Craig. There were 8 Angels and some minor units there, with no chance for him.
Thanks for the game.

3 consecutive wins and a collection of the Mage's Ring, without which these wins wouldn't have been possible. We built towers as best we could, but the Goblin Outpost was immediately breached. There was nothing left to do in the center after that. We had no answer to 45 Monarchs with the Orb.
Thanks for the game.
P.S. We played 3 games in the tournament, and in all of them, there was an imbalance in one direction or another. I hope there won't be any more tournaments based on this template.

Tournament bracket
I've updated the table and set the deadlines. The lower bracket has a 2-week deadline, starting today, so please keep this in mind and remember that the mandatory time for playing is Saturday!

disbalance on this template is even worse than on Jebus! like 9 cons on respawn against a duel and it happens all the time!

28.05.2014 Pit for LM(Blue,Necropolis,Clavius,Clavius)+ Gomunguls(Green,Rampart,Ivor,Gretchin) def Pyre(Red,Conflux,random,Ignissa,Monere)+ SVAROG(Brown,Stronghold,Crag Hack,Crag Hack) 117

The start was good, we discovered 3 Griffin Conservatories, Pete started building skeletons for the conservatories, I helped however I could, leveling Gretchin for the center + managing things with the army... in the end on 116 I break 21 bone dragons and rush into the center, the gray player had already scouted there and Crag Hack is standing clearly after a Dragon Utopia, I attack but there's a red orb, sad... nothing to do, I attack the enemy GO to level up Tactics... on my turn Monere takes all of Crag Hack's army and attacks Gretchin
FB goes under the red orb:
Gretchin: stats 13 8, 9 angels 495 skeletons, 10 air elementals, single fairies.
Monere: stats 13 18, 34 wyverns 4 angels, 2 phoenixes, 1 magic elemental, 18 firebirds, and single firebirds.
In the end the battle turned out to be a rout (didn't expect it at all, thought it was GG already), we lost almost all of the skeletons, 2 angels... the opponents lost everyone except 1 elemental and 18 firebirds... they retreat and on the next turn we go on the attack...
Thanks for the game!

02.06.2014. Pit for LM (Brown, Rampart, Ivor, Mephala) + Gomunguls (red, Fortress, Tazar, Tazar) def marajan (blue, Castle, Valeska, Grindan) + Iamsamstan (Green, Conflux, random Brissa, Labetha), Teamwork, 121.
The draw was fairly average, but the opponents had little chance.
On 111 we revealed an external dwelling of Wyverns, a Griffin Conservatory, and a Dragon Fly Hive in the swamp. I raised 35 gr. dwarves with the Magogs, and on 112, after the Gnolls, we got another 50 regular ones. We also revealed another Conservatory in the swamp. The center is completely empty for now, but it's native swamp terrain. In another free Pandora's Box, we got 90 Gnolls.
On 113 we take our only Dragon Fly Hive, +6 Wyverns. A bugged passage to the center is discovered (without ГО). Fortunately, there's another one behind the birds, so it's all good.
On 114 I get another 90 Gnolls. A mini-Conservatory is taken.
On 115 a t3 Conservatory falls, and the army goes to me. I break through the ГО, take a Dragon Fly Hive for 6 Wyverns, and spend the whole day running through the gorge, finding not a single object, not even a useless one.
On 116 Korbac bursts through the bugged passage and takes a town. The road in it ends, and scouting reveals a Dragon Utopia. I make my way through my gorge to a block of 50+ gr. Minotaurs guarding a Conservatory, a Pandora's Box, and a Black Market.
On 117 Tazar grabs the Dragon Utopia. Minimum roll with a blue cap. The army moves closer to me. On the move, the blue Grindan destroys the Minotaurs but is one tile short of the Conservatory. I take the Conservatory, +1 Angel. I check Grindan - tons of mana, 30+ Wyverns, 5 Angels, all stats over 10. My combat stats are at 8, and I have no magic at all :). I run away, setting up a chain to capture the second central town via Dimension Door.
On 121 an army is delivered to me. I see that the blue player didn't take the town (Grindan ran towards it but fell just short). Dimension Door, I grab the town. I take the Dragon Utopia next to it, extremely poorly, losing 3 Angels due to a misclick. But at least there's money. An external Dragon dwelling, a Dragon Fly Hive, and Boots of Speed are taken and bought out. I move the entire army to the red chains (Tazar on standby to take two more Dragon Utopias).
The Mage Guild gives the opponents nothing for Flight, and they decide to surrender. Indeed, all the tasty part of the treasure zone ended up with us...
Thank you all for the game!
