"Новичок-2014. Summer"

Greetings to all fans of Heroes of Might and Magic 3, future participants, and supporters of the traditional "Новичок" tournament. And even if you are not a fan of Heroes :eek: , I still welcome you and invite you to the new season. I hope it will bring great games and discoveries of new players.
This is our traditional, already eleventh tournament for Новичок.
We do not have a precise and strict definition of who a "новичок" is. This tournament is for those
- who only recently realized that you can play the favorite old game Heroes online,
- who only recently found out that they are not the only ones who can easily beat computers and that things are not so simple with a real person,
- who recently started playing with more than one or two heroes and building chains...
We do not invite fathers and grandfathers, we do not want to see clones, and would a medal obtained in such a dubious way even have value for a strong player?
The main goal of the tournament is to get to know each other and gain experience in communication and gameplay.

Winners of past tournaments:
"Новичок-2014. Winter" - Aiwe
"Новичок-2013. Summer" - The_
"Новичок-2013. Winter" - высокий
"Новичок-2012. Summer" - twaryna
"Новичок-2012. Winter" - 7z
"Новичок-2011. Summer" - Sky Pioneer
"Новичок-2011. Winter" - Sevensan
"Новичок-2010. Summer" - тенью бездомной
"Новичок-2010. Winter" - Сатир
"Новичок-2009. Summer" - Erdem

Participant Requirements:
1. registration on the HW forum between June 1 2013 and June 6 2014;
2. total experience playing HoMM3 online - no more than 1 year; long breaks in play are discussed individually;
3. absence of strong results in tournaments on HW and other resources (specifically, 1-3 places in previous "Новичок" tournaments or any other tournament, reaching the final stages of major tournaments) - subject to the organizers' opinion;
4. participation prior to this tournament in no more than one "Новичок" tournament;
5. absence of forfeits or withdrawals in other tournaments;
6. availability of time and ability to play 1 game per week (consider the time zone) - priority playing times are considered 19-24 MSK on weekdays and 12-24 MSK on weekends;

Tournament organizers Roger DAltavilla (IСQ 624681987), Iamsamstan (IСQ 435191039) can play with you if you cannot find an opponent;
8. players wishing to participate in the tournament agree to provide any additional information requested by the tournament judges;
9. players agree to the regulations and rules of the tournament;
10. players are required to closely follow all announcements from organizers in the tournament thread.

Organizers reserve the right to deny registration to any player without a public explanation of reasons.

9. The tournament winner will be awarded the "Winner of Tournament 'Новичок'" medal under their avatar:

Regulations.
To be determined later, depending on the number of registered participants. We expect a traditional scheme: group stage + team tournament + play-offs.
So, the number of participants has been determined. Clarifying the regulations:
Stage 1. 24 participants are divided into 4 groups of 6 people. A round-robin tournament is held in each group, where everyone plays everyone else once. 1 point is given for a win, 0.5 points for a draw, and zero for a loss. The 4 people with the best results advance from the group to the next stage. Result criteria by order of importance: 1) points earned, 2) Berger coefficient, 3) result of head-to-head meeting. If these criteria are insufficient, players will be offered a system of tie-breaker games. If that also fails, democratic judicial discretion will be applied.
Stage 2. Tournament of novices against veterans. NP vs LM More details in post №3
Stage 3. Play-off. Starts on August 11 2014. Conducted via an Olympic system with elimination after the second lost match. Each match in the upper bracket is played until two wins, and in the lower bracket until one win. Time limit for 1 game - 1 week. (The loser in the upper bracket moves to the lower bracket and continues playing there. The loser in the lower bracket is eliminated from the competition.)
For templates in the first game, the player listed first in the pair chooses first; their opponent chooses castles first. In the second game, you switch places. For the third game, you may toss a coin or ask the organizer.

Dates.
Registration - June 7 2014 - June 30 2014.
Approval of participant list - July 1-4 2014.
Group stage draw and tournament start - July 5 2014.
Time limit for one game - 1 week.

Rules.
1. Game version. The tournament is held on game version SoD 3.2(4.0) + HD mod + by mutual consent HW_rulez (for correct operation, the patch must be installed for both players).
2. The tournament is conducted according to the rules of online games in Heroes 3.
3. Restarts total 3 days ( 111+111+111 or 111+112 or 113).
4. In the initial stage of the tournament, games are played on template 2sm4d(3). In the final part of the tournament, the template is chosen by drawing from a list of 5 templates: 2sm4d(3), jebus Cross, Panic, 8mm6a (version without one-way paths), mini nostalgia.

Tomorrow is the deadline for the first game in the playoffs. I only know the situation in the pairs Svetogor-Falcone, Cincinat-YaR, and Jewelmask-cbw. Don't delay, I need the results.
Rabe vs Sloth_D, game on a saved map - second week.

We had a decent exchange. On the first day, I spotted the opponent's external dwelling for elves and the Griffin Conservatory on a neighboring Citadel secondary town. A decent amount of gold, a 6-hero spread, but the opponent already had more gold by turn 111. I thought for a long time, since I had little creature growth; Ivor only brought 3 elves, but in the end I committed to the game.
On turn 117, I captured both secondary towns. I missed one day of building construction in my ramp-up and decided to build the Citadel, managing to squeeze in the upgraded creatures by turn 117.
The Citadel's respawn was rich: 3 Griffin Conservatories, double mana, and a box of 45 orcs. Ivor got both earth magic and logistics — everything was fine.
On turn 126, the opponent appeared and managed to take my Citadel with the bears by the end of the week. I decided not to defend but to take the Griffin Conservatories, as the army there didn't look threatening at all. A couple of birds, a few efreet, and some miscellaneous units — no bears.
On turn 127, I took the first Griffin Conservatory out of three — just a single one. On turn 131, I planned to take the other two big ones after leveling up my spell power a bit. My stats were higher, and I thought I could knock him out of my Citadel, where he had settled, by using angels.
Turn 131 started, the opponent attacked my scout hero, and his laptop crashed. Since it was already 3 AM, we decided to save the game.
We couldn't finish the game for a whole week. In the end, we only managed to reconnect today.
There were serious connection issues — we had to reload because the opponent forgot to buy a spell book before a battle, and then he managed to get a redraw despite the HeroesWorld rules :o
I offered auto-battle, but the opponent again forgot to buy a book for his scout hero and decided to surrender. To be fair, I had a significant advantage in creature growth and stats.

We started the second game on a mini-nostalgia map.

Thanks for the time and the game!;)

We had a decent exchange. On the first day, I spotted the elf external dwelling and the Griffin Conservatory on a neighboring secondary Citadel. A decent amount of money, a 6-hero spread, but the opponent already had 111 more. I thought for a long time, as there was little meat; Ivor brought only 3 elves, but in the end I committed to it.
On day 117, I took both secondary towns. I missed one day of building in the ramp and decided to build a Citadel; I managed to stick the creatures in on day 117.
The Citadel respawn was rich: 3 Griffin Conservatories, double mana, a box of 45 orcs. Ivor caught both Earth and Log, everything was fine.
On day 126, the opponent appears and manages to take my Citadel with bears by the end of the week. I decide not to defend but to take the Griffin Conservatories, since the army there inspires no concern at all. A couple of birds and a few efreeti, and some small stuff, no bears.
On day 127, I take the first of three Griffin Conservatories — a single. On day 131, I plan to take two more big ones after leveling up the Oil. The parameters were higher, and I thought I could knock him out of my Citadel, where he had settled, with angels.
Day 131 started; the opponent attacks a scout hero, and his laptop shuts down. Since it was already 3 AM, we decide to save.
We couldn't finish for a whole week; in the end, we only managed to sync up today.
There were serious connection issues; we reloaded because the opponent forgot to buy the book before the fight, and then he managed to redrash despite the HeroesWorld rules :o
I gave auto, but the opponent again forgot to buy the book for the scout hero and decided to surrender. To be fair, I had a serious advantage in meat and stats.

We started the second game on a mininost.

Thanks for the time and the game!;)

In the first game, I took an Inferno secondary and built efreeti there, but, as it turned out, it would have been better to run through no-man's-land to my own native secondary, where the opponent arrived earlier. In the second, I broke through there; on day 127, I sat in the opponent's Citadel; on day 131, I attacked the opponent's scout hero with my scout hero, but mine had troops from growth instead of giving him the troops with the ГГ; in short, even after a warning about a red-rush, I still committed it:( The opponent had everything going well, and his parameters were much higher than mine — so thanks for the game!

Interesting match. Kirr was putting pressure, taking castles. But Moner managed to recover. In the final, he won with Armageddon + Explosion. Thanks for the game!

Everything was fine for me. I got enough gold for Titans in Castle by month 2.
I gathered some nice adjacent zones and was heading into the treasure zone, but suddenly my opponent died.
I loaded the save and couldn't understand why my opponent didn't take a resurrection.
Thanks for the game.

Everything was fine for me. The money gave me enough for Titans in Castle on the second.
I gathered some tasty adjacent zones and was heading to the treasure zone, but suddenly my opponent died.
Loaded a save, couldn't understand why my opponent didn't take a rest.
Thanks for the game.
Well, I myself don't understand why I didn't rest... The only tasty thing was a Griffin Conservatory on day 1 from Castle for 50-99 hogs.
Already on days 4-5 I realized the full fatality of the layout: my respawn in the form of a sickle, where all the goodies (Griffin Conservatory, creature cache, etc.) are a week's travel away! Secondary towns - a swamp with two portals on rough terrain and one crypt (already on the second day, scavengers gathered everything possible) and Conflux, at whose respawn there's nothing except an arena either!
In total, one crypt, 0 beehives, 0 Naga Banks, 0 Dwarf Cottages, 0 Medusa Lairs. In the two-way passage, right at the exit, 100-249 Griffins are guarding a beehive.
Seeing that my opponent already had Titans (+Angels+Wyverns), I decided that at any cost I needed to hit the max Griffin Conservatory and break into the treasure zone.
I attacked the Griffin Conservatory out of desperation.
Gundula with 9 attack and 6 defense (4 bears, 7 Wyverns, 11 Thunderbirds and chaff) against 160+40 Griffins - the latter won :(
Thanks for the game, sorry I didn't put up a fight.

We ate all the respawns. It went very well, but with the typical Conflux problems on Jebus Cross. Namely – there were no troops at all until weeks 1-1-6 or 1-1-7, and I had to purely collect free stuff.
1-1-1 – right under the Castle, an external dwelling of Phoenixes behind Diamond Golems. Nearby – a Dragon Fly Hive. A Pandora's Box behind Ogres a bit further. A Library, a Club +5, an external dwelling of Psychic Elementals. Decent heroes didn't appear, so I decide to level up Labetha for the external dwelling.
1-1-2 – found two more Dragon Fly Hives.
1-1-3 – found a View Air spell. It showed that one of the towns is completely blocked. There's another Dragon Fly Hive by the road, but very far behind a block (the respawn turned out huge, from the very bottom to the very top of the map). An External Marketplace, Gauntlets. On the other side, I discovered a bunch more goodies – a Dragon Fly Hive, a Pandora's Box behind Medusas, a Pandora's Box with an external dwelling of Psychic Elementals behind Gold Golems, and a Library. Freed Serena with Logistica from prison. Almost reached the Tower town.
1-1-4 – I take the Tower. Urgent construction of Griffin's Monument lvl 2 is required… Near the Pandora's Box behind Ogres, I found another Dragon Fly Hive. Also a Cape of Speed there. Another Dragon Fly Hive turned out to be in a completely remote area with no roads, nearby – a second external dwelling of Birds! And a Dragon Utopia, but I won't reach it. Meanwhile, Labetha got Pathfinding, and there's a Tavern with Logistica. The hero from it will be decent.
1-1-5 – ran to the Tavern for Logistica. I'm preparing to break the Ogres for the Pandora's Box.
1-1-6 – first serious fight of the game. Took the Pandora's Box, 10k experience, Expert Logistica, Pathfinding, got Sorcery. I'm standing at the Well, preparing for a double split. I set up a chain to take the second external dwelling of Birds.
1-1-7 – I split, learn Bolt (Immolation?), split again. Break the Iron Golems, take the external dwelling of Birds with single units. Transfer troops, grab a Dragon Fly Hive for 8 Wyverns, Shield +5, behind Greater Basilisks I free Merista at level 10, and she grabs the second external dwelling of Birds for 30 Blue Monks. Everything went perfectly, this time I didn't lose the Birds anywhere, and even the Psychic Elementals are intact. And I have 9 Water Elementals left.
1-2-1 – troops that grabbed the external dwelling move down slightly towards a Dragon Fly Hive. Another one nearby! +6 Wyverns. I buy 4 Birds for Labetha, take the Dragon Fly Hive under the Castle, +4 Wyverns.
1-2-2 – Labetha grabs 12 Wyverns, on the other side the army gets another 14, also a Cape of Speed. Although having Labetha enter the Dragon Fly Hive was probably a mistake, I didn't have 2 movement points the next day to split…
1-2-3 – I get another 8 Wyverns on a completely different side. Labetha visits a Library. The Pandora's Boxes give 10k gold and 30 Frost Elementals (Fishes).
1-2-4 – finish eating the respawn. Gauntlets, a Dragon Fly Hive for 8. Labetha splits to replenish mana. He can take the main opponent (main base?), and then perhaps Mephala, who has picked up decent skills, will go fight.
1-2-5 – gathered the whole army. 14 Birds, 60 Wyverns, 43 Frost Elementals, 8 Psychic Elementals, and a Magma Elemental (Eater). 21 Angels (7 Archangels) fall without losses. At the center, immediately a block of Archangels, the Magma Elemental is already few, but slightly below lies the Cape of 5th level magic behind Battle Unicorns! I break the guards, Mephala grabs the artifact, gives it to Labetha.
1-2-6 – visit the Library, jump over the Archangels. In prison, I free Alamar! I have Resurrection, now everything will fall without losses! But the fights are still simple – Mines for the Tome of Fire Magic and a Boat, which, by the way, gives me an Elixir! A bit further, another Library and a Necklace (+3 to all stats), I stop at the guards. Here come the Blue players too.
1-2-7 – I break the Giants for Armageddon, Alamar takes the Necklace and jumps to the central Castle. Labetha visits the Library and splits into the Castle. I was getting to Galthrana, but he decided not to die, and hastily surrendered.
Thank you for the game!

We ate all the respawns. It went very well, but with the typical problems of Conflux on Jebus Cross. Namely – there were no troops at all until week 1, day 1-6 or 1-7, and I had to just collect free stuff.
Week 1, day 1-1 – right under the Castle there's an external dwelling of Phoenixes behind Diamonds. Nearby – a Dragon Fly Hive. A Pandora's Box behind Ogres a bit further. A Library, Club of +5, external dwelling of Psychos. No decent heroes came up, so I decide to level Labetha into the external dwelling.
Week 1, day 1-2 – found two more Dragon Fly Hives.
Week 1, day 1-3 – found a View Air. It showed that one of the towns is completely blocked. There's another Dragon Fly Hive by the road, but very far behind a block (the respawn turned out huge, from the very bottom to the very top of the map). External Market, Gloves of Speed. In the other direction, a bunch more goodies were found – a Dragon Fly Hive, a Pandora's Box behind Medusas, a Pandora's Box with an external dwelling of Psychos behind Gold, and a Library. Freed Serena with Logistics from a prison. Almost reached the Tower town.
Week 1, day 1-4 – take the Tower. Urgent construction of Mage Guild level 2 is needed... Next to the Pandora's Box behind Ogres, another Dragon Fly Hive was found. Also a Cape of Velocity there. Another Dragon Fly Hive turned out to be in completely impassable terrain, nearby – a second external dwelling of Birds! And a Dragon Utopia, but we won't reach it. Meanwhile, Labetha was given Pathfinding, and there's a hut with Logistics. The hero from it will be decent.
Week 1, day 1-5 – ran to the hut for Logistics. Getting ready to break through the Ogres for the Pandora's Box.
Week 1, day 1-6 – first serious fight of the game. Took the Pandora's Box, 10k experience, Expert Logistics, Pathfinding, was given Sorcery. Standing at a Well, getting ready for a double split. Setting up a chain to take the second external dwelling of Birds.
Week 1, day 1-7 – split, learn Bolt, split. Break Golems, take the external dwelling of Birds with singles. Transfer troops, grab a Dragon Fly Hive for 8 Wyverns, Shield +5, free Merista (level 10) behind Greater Basilisks, and she grabs the second external dwelling of Birds for 30 Blue Monks. Everything went great, this time I didn't lose the Birds anywhere, and even the Psychos are intact. Also 9 Water elementals left.
Week 2, day 1 – troops that grabbed the external dwelling move down slightly towards a Dragon Fly Hive. Another one nearby! +6 Wyverns. Buy 4 Birds for Labetha, take the Dragon Fly Hive under the Castle, +4 Wyverns.
Week 2, day 2 – Labetha grabs 12 Wyverns, on the other side the army gets another 14, plus a Cape of Velocity. Although sending Labetha into the Dragon Fly Hive was probably a mistake – 2 movement points short the next day to split...
Week 2, day 3 – get another 8 Wyverns in a completely different area. Labetha visits a Library. The Pandora's Boxes give 10k gold and 30 Firebirds.
Week 2, day 4 – finish eating the respawn. Gloves of Speed, Dragon Fly Hive for 8. Labetha splits to replenish mana. ГО she will take down, and later, possibly, Mephala will go fight, who picked up decent skills.
Week 2, day 5 – gathered the entire army. 14 Birds, 60 Wyverns, 43 Firebirds, 8 Psychos, and an Earth Elemental. 21 Angels (7 Archangels) fall without losses. Right in the center, a block of Archangels – the Earth Elemental is already few, but slightly lower lies a Cap of 5th level Magic behind Battle Unicorns! I break through the guard, Mephala grabs the artifact, gives it to Labetha.
Week 2, day 6 – visit a Library, jump over the Archangels. In a prison, I free Alamar! I have Resurrection, now everything will fall without losses! But the fights are still simple – Mines for Tome of Fire and a Flask, which, by the way, gives me an Elixir! A bit further, another Library and a Necklace of +3 to all stats, I stop at the guard. Here come the Blue players too.
Week 2, day 7 – break through the Giants to Armageddon, Alamar takes the Necklace and jumps to the central Castle. Labetha visits a Library and splits into the Castle. I was going for Galthran, but he decided not to die and hastily surrendered.
Thank you for the game!


On the respawn, I didn't see a single Pandora's Box or Griffin Conservatory, and there was 1 Dragon Fly Hive that I didn't even touch. I took 1 external dwelling each of horses and dragons (there was a 2nd one, but saw it too late and it was far), lots of gold, made 5 Ghost Dragons (they're total cannon fodder), took 1 Dragon Utopia. They didn't give Earth Magic on the respawn, 2 packs of Titans thinned out the Skeletons by about 2/3 probably. When I saw 60 Wyverns and 14 Birds from the opponent, everything became completely clear, and there wasn't really anywhere to go anyway) The only thing I didn't understand was why the opponent didn't switch to Mephala immediately – she's an imba hero and got excellent leveling from the very bottom, probably giving a head start)
Thanks for the game and its subsequent analysis)

"New Players" vs "Legends and Myths".

Dear SP_SkyLine, cbw, cost, Sloth_D!

We – the team captains, Roger and I – would like to know if you plan to play for your team. The tournament is organized for you, and you are given a rare opportunity to play against the top players on our forum, get to know them, and chat with them.

Please let us know about your plans on the forum. I didn't receive a response to my private messages. Chasing you on ICQ is quite tiring.
