Why are you so fixated on these 3 templates? Fans of Heroes 3 will never be able to play it anyway, so let's not limit players in every way! Let the hero be chosen from the full list. Besides, there aren't many die-hard supporters of the 3-hero system out of 8, only two are against it, and the rest don't care!

Actually, there are only two staunch supporters of choosing factions and templates from a limited list.
To be fair, the matchups were more interesting when the faction was chosen from a limited list...

No one seems to be arguing about the choice of factions – 7 pairs and a vote for one.
So far, no one has actively expressed a desire to play with 3 templates out of 8 randomly, but at least two people are in favor of the full list! I think Brodyaga is also in favor of the full list. Therefore, I think it makes sense to play with templates from the full list. 3 in favor, no one against, the rest abstained, that's how it is for now!

What map templates will be used in the tournament (huge or huge+large)? I'm in favor of using the full set of templates, but if only huge templates are used (8 of them)...

Large maps haven't been played for a long time – I can't even remember when I last played one, it's been about a year and a half.

Well, now it's 4-3.

Thank you. Does anyone have diagrams for large templates?
