The show tournament by twaryna is still ongoing, and it's already clear that the version has turned out to be quite playable. Some minor edits are still possible, but overall, the gameplay will not change in the foreseeable future.

Therefore, we are starting an open HotA tournament.

Game information and download links are here - http://vk.com/h3hota.

Game version: HotA 1.3.8 + HDmode.

Template: chosen by lot from Jebus, Mini-Nostalgia, Diamond, 8mm6a, 6lm10a.

Castles: all games are played in the Wharf vs Wharf format; one player chooses the color, and the other player chooses the starting hero first.

Timer - standard for ХВ rules, but battle time is 2 minutes (with unfamiliar troops, more thinking is required during combat).
Jebus - 24+8:30+2
Diamond - 19+8+2
Mini-Nostalgia - 19+8+2
8mm6a - 21+8+2
6lm10a - 21+8+2

Roads - fast for Jebus and medium for other templates.

Restarts - 3 days in total (+objective restarts due to blocks, bugs, or encounters).

Red-rush is allowed.

Other rules correspond to the HotA show tournament rules

Tournament format - Swiss system with elimination after 2 losses. Each round is played as a best-of-one (bo1). Time per round - 3 weeks.

Rules may be clarified later, as some nuances might have been missed the first time. In case of a disputed or doubtful situation, it is recommended to contact the judge immediately. That is, do not abuse discovered bugs.

Players have the right to agree on any changes in the rules except for the game version.

Each participant must pass qualification - play at least one full online game in HotA. This is to ensure that you have installed the software correctly and understand the game rules. Players who participated in the show tournament or have game reports for HotA in the season are exempt from qualification.

Register here, specifying ICQ/Skype. Start as soon as a quorum is reached.

UPDATE

Regarding the tournament start dates - 3 weeks are given for registration and qualification, meaning the draw for the 1st round will be on 24.04.2015

Players may independently agree on tournament games ahead of the bracket. For this, players must have an equal number of wins/losses. The fact of agreement should be reported to me before the start of the game via a forum post or ICQ message. Independent games that were not reported before the draw of the corresponding round are considered null and void.

Anyone who wants to start already can find an opponent for the 1st round themselves and play against them. Early games may be counted as qualification if bo3 (best-of-3) is played.

Final:

Maretti vs YaR

To win the tournament, Maretti only needs to win once, while YaR must win twice.

UPDATE

Since the starting confusion has ended, we will play more orderly from the 2nd round onwards.

1) Players who do not meet the round deadline (regardless of whose fault), will play in the next round with a debuff - their opponent may choose both the color and the hero.

Exceptions are possible at the discretion of the organizer. For example, if players reported difficulties in advance (within one week from the start of the round).

Therefore, I recommend not waiting until the last day, but agreeing and starting to play immediately.

2) Private messages from the organizer should be answered within 3 days. The same applies to public messages with any requests. Lack of reaction is interpreted against the player.

For example, if in response to a private message "How is the round 2 game going?", one of the players replied (regardless of what), and the second remained silent, then in the absence of a result, a technical victory will be awarded to the first.

3) If a player withdraws from the tournament or is disqualified, their slot is passed in order of queue to players who have already been eliminated from the tournament. Priority is given to those who progressed further, and if they reached the same distance - to whoever played earlier.

Therefore, I recommend agreeing and playing subsequent rounds before their official start.

Interesting game it turned out to be, didn't expect I'd pull it off, but luck was on my side. I didn't take a restart because of the library under the fortresses right in front of home, and Jeremy started leveling Loga. On day 117, Nagas in the Citadel, Jeremy with Air and Earth, Artillery, and Loga as expert, didn't reach the opponent - he was sitting far away, but I slipped into the central treasure zone on the sand. There, under a horde of Dendroids, lay a Sword +6 and a Refugee Camp. I took the sword and went to break the fortresses, buy a book, and hit the Griffin Conservatory. Stats very impressive for day 123 (something like 17 9 4 5). Same day I checked the Refugee Camp - ARCHANGEL :smile03: I wasn't against it)) I broke a few conservatories, leveled up a bit, and on day 131 dove into a Dragon Utopia (took it without much trouble, only the Firebird suffered - gave stats - Dragonbone Hat and Sword +12 -3) and revealed a Control scroll under the Aspids. On day 133 I claimed Control (turned out to be Fly). And then the opponent exposed himself. I attacked, killed his Angels, made a stack of Cyclopes combat-ineffective (2 left), and killed the Serpents, while I lost my Archangel and a few Cyclopes. The opponent bought himself out, we continued. Stats were good, but army power was a bit low; I feared I couldn't break his castle, so I decided to power up further. Everything was quite far away, but Fly helped. I killed another Dragon Utopia (there I got exactly what I was looking for - the Red Orb), found Shackles of War, and assembled the Bow of the Sharpshooter (Archery didn't kick in, but everything was fine anyway). I rushed to day 147 to take back the opponent's main, knowing I had a decent power advantage (by then the tavern was showing serious stats, perhaps even more serious than mine). I arrived in time, reclaimed the main, and then caught the opponent with his entire army.

Thanks for the game)

Well, everything here was much more brutal for me....
we took a few restarts, of course, as soon as the map was okay, the opponent took a restart.
on this map I had day 111 even, but in the first week: Corkes, Tazar, Mephala
I decide to play....on day 112 I regret it...the roads are twisted into the a** :confused:
2 weeks running around for nothing.
on the first I see a neutral stack of level 7 hitched with Enchanters...them in the Stronghold.
day 127 I take the neutral stack and set up Serpents.
I see insane stats on the opponent.

on day 134 total chaos starts...
I pop out at some respawn, reinforcements arrive on day 135, don't know where to go, choose to go right... without a solid army +4 Serpents +4 Nagas + 21 Pirates, well, in short, almost half the army...the opponent catches me.

I buy myself out, went for 3 Naga banks as I have absolutely no gold.
141/142 I have 5 Serpents, 14 Nagas, 6 Cyclopes, 30 Pirates, 6 Mages, I dive into a Dragon Utopia...difficult, but 5 Serpents and Nagas survive. +6 ALL + KВ + feathers + 3 Attack.

just super. No mana, nearby dungeon MG+dbl mana. I spend money on Inferno with Mephala, full demoning.
on day 147 I have 93 Demons, 14 Cyclopes, 12 Wyverns, 5 Serpents

last round I defend 2 scrolls, one Dragon Utopia, I get Town Portal but I don't know that I could not build MG...so I lose the main.
day 211 the opponent reaches me, I have exp fire magic, exp earth, fire book, air book, stats: 28 20 14 11 (208) +3 morale + 3 luck exp archery, opponent 27 9 14 13 (100+) I thought Berserk+Chain Lightning+Armageddon

yes yes....the opponent has a cloak for Berserk...hahaha.. Red Orb :eek: Bow of the Sharpshooter...oh man...and the Ring of Speed...
morale didn't kick in, luck didn't work,
the shooter chops 3 Angels...Cyclopes die from the opponent's Cyclopes...Simply everything that could go wrong went wrong. My army dies very painfully and quickly...
TP -> at home in the castle it would have been unclear, or 2 Armageddons and GG. eh...

thanks for the game

Very hard struggle. Start was good, I had big army and spread well around the map, used Vido to get some meat, but I lacked TP. Built 4 guilds, visited scrines, took 3 topes etc, but didnt get it.

As usual we were both out of time and had been for a long time. I saw opponent with full control, so I set up to attack his town at 221. He was in it, so I decided to attack with new troops. Stats were pretty equal and we both lacked armor. I had sharpshooters bow, health combo and red orb. Powerstack of 23 arch angels, but not that much else. Opponnet had some heavy shooters, golden bow and 3 to speed, so it was a very close battle. In the end I managed to win it with 8 aas left and opponent ran with 85 sea dogs. Next day he attacked me in town with some stronghold troops added, but it wasnt enough. TFP.

was trying my best.
w1 took barb ai. jeremy took earth early, but no slow. no banks for gold, except naga bank at 121.
w2 took box for 90 nymphs, and went to con w/o checking. was planning to take any con, so prepared some barb meet too. was for 3 angels. scouted one more con on the way to t-zone. so decided to go there and with ressurect take tope.
w3 had 5 angels, 6 cyclops, 8 nixas + some meat. compared to opponent 10+ angels and other troops.
took 4 topes overall with earth book, wings, +5 all. also found golden bow and +12 cyclops. built cyclops in barb.
had more stats at this moment, but army was like 4 angels, 8 nixas and 20 cyclops. so decided to go for my corner t-zone. and checked ai corner t-zone. found 2 more topes where got dd at least. alamar had exp air. but w/o loga and stables even with 2 dd was hard to reach other towns.

final battle was pretty close, but didnt have enough army to take down 20+ AA under elixir.

thanks for game!

The 5th round is coming to an end...

No information received from the following pairs:

WiZarDX_576 - Maretti
Pit for LM - wowa
KobRa_RR - skd

Please report on the status of the matches here or in a private message.

After the draw, I tried to arrange a match, but I didn't seem to get a response. Then I was away for 2 weeks, and in the last few days, I needed to finish playing against Red.
I'll try to contact my opponent again and arrange a match, hopefully we can play soon.

I started well, didn't get greedy like in the last games, skipped tactics and defense, and quickly experted Earth and Archery. I saw 3 Zealots and took the Griffin Conservatory with Mass Slow at the start of second week. At the Castle town's respawn, I grabbed the Boots. I was ahead of Kobra in army size, and he took a risk by picking pink Conflux and left himself open to Jeremy on a speed roll in the middle of second week. I changed plans, hired from an external tavern — knocked his Gloves off, but couldn't reach the town with the army (73 movement points on medium roads diagonally wasn't enough), I misplayed that turn and could have finished him if I moved correctly. But I gave him a chance; Kobra ran away with the treasury, 2 days of chasing, and Cassiopeia, after picking up Gladius, accepted battle. I also made a mistake in the fight by not killing the cannon with Sea Wolves and took a big hit with 22 attack, then made another mistake and let Kobra retreat with 1 Cyclops. Chasing further was pointless, so I decided to take 2 out of 3 Angel stashes in the treasure zone and place the Angels in the computer's Castle. Kobra was left with 1 village and surrendered after 2 turns.
Thanks for the game.

Got a good start, wasn't greedy like in the last games, gave up tactics and defense and quickly expertised earth and archery. Saw 3 zephyrs and a Griffin Conservatory with Mass Slow at the start of week 2, I take it. At the Castle opponent's respawn I got the boots. Was ahead of Cobra in army size and he takes a risk, picks up pink Conflux, and opens himself up to Jeremy on the rush in the middle of week 2. I change plans, get him through the external tavern — knock the gloves off him, but can't reach the town with the army (73 moves on average roads diagonally is not enough), I made a mistake that turn and could have caught him if I moved correctly. But I gave him a chance, Cobra took the treasury away, 2 days of chase and Cassiopeia, having picked up Gladius, accepts the fight. I also made a mistake in the fight by not killing the cannon with sea wolves and with 22 attack took a good hit, then made another mistake and let Cobra retreat with 1 cyclops. Further chasing made no sense, I decided to take 2 out of 3 angel caches in the treasure zone and place the angels in the opponent's Castle. Cobra was left with 1 town and surrenders after 2 turns.
Thanks for the game.

I myself made enough mistakes for two games ahead, saw the opponent, but for some reason decided to scout Conflux :confused: Was afraid of an attack from there through external taverns, and that's exactly what happened)) Then I fought back a Town Portal scroll with runners and imposed a fight, dug up the killed Jeremy. Took the sword +12 with him but then time ran out. Didn't replenish mana, no money for ransom. Lost the FB. But what finished me off was the computer)) Everything could have gone differently. If not for the block against my two computers from 20+ Efreet Sultans :mad:
Thanks for the game! Well done, Skadi, you're improving! Good luck going forward

We took almost all the restarts (I had 1 left), and played out relatively average spawns. Mine was perhaps a bit better and more convenient.
On 111 I scouted 2 Dragon Fly Hives, a Dragon Utopia, and a library — seemed great. However, that was essentially the extent of my respawn.
On 113 I scouted ГО — Griffins, behind them — Black Dragons. The dragons are gettable, but very inconvenient. I took a Castle village. Jeremy leveled up to 7th level on chests — Pathfinding, Attack. Found an external dwelling of serpents!
Took the external dwelling on 115, having scouted a couple more Zealots by then, but not very conveniently placed. And I couldn't take the Cyclopes and Wyverns at the same time due to morale...
On 116 I break back home to the Dragon Fly Hives. I find the Necklace of Speed.
On 117 I get Earth Magic. This turns the spawn from mediocre to quite good :). Built serpent dwellings in the Stronghold.
At the start of the second week I was leveling Earth Magic, so my exit was somewhat delayed. The Dragon Fly Hives near home turned out to be 8+4, a bit further in I found another with 8, took it on the way to ГО.
I exited into the center on 124, and there I immediately grabbed another Dragon Fly Hive with 4 Wyverns.
On 125 I took the Tome of Air from the Devils. Already great. I ran to the opponent's exit, everything is still there, I grab the Shield +5.
On 126 — Shackles of War, Sword +2+2, a couple of libraries, Dimension Door — and I refill mana in the dungeon. Nearby, a couple of Dragon Utopias, but it's still hard to take them. Need growth or more army.
However, the opponent pops out on their turn into the center. I want to close in, but there are no troops there at all :) Repeated losses prevented the opponent from gaining a foothold in the game.
Thank you for the game!

On day 111, he spread out across the middle lanes. On the next turn, he scouted with a hero, revealing part of the opponent's territory, including his town and Guardian. On day 113, he defeated the computer with a Citadel. After that, he chased after a tower and then captured a castle. The opponent had an Inferno, a Dungeon, and a Rampart. On day 125, he went to the castle, dug underground, and noticed that his own troops had +1 speed, without any artifacts. It turned out that the opponent had placed a Grail in his main town. Lol, what?! He had to work hard, but luckily, he had something to work with. On day 143, he captured a Maxutopus with a Colossus. He gained air control. There was no teleportation. On the same day, he took advantage of the opponent's confusion near his main town. The army and artifacts were not in the main town (Anabelle) but in Ilore, which was well-developed but without any decent weapons, standing near the gates. He killed Anabelle in the town and drove Ilore away. Ilore had 26 Nix warriors, 40 Cyclops, and some other units. The stats were roughly equal, but he had 6 more defense. They both had a little mana. In general, 11 Archons easily dealt with everything (7 remained after the battle), except for the Nix. After that, it was just a matter of not letting the opponent take the main town before the start of the new week and making plans for the future, as there were still places to expand. On day 213, seeing his army and stats, the opponent surrendered. Thank you for the game!

On turn 111, I discovered a hidden Nix camp near the accessible paths. I scouted and found that the Grail was buried in the underground lava (Inferno was indeed underground, according to reconnaissance). In the first week, I took the Nix camp and fought against the creatures, who put up fierce resistance. Eventually, I managed to kill 2 creatures only on turn 121. I decided not to attack the Rampart for some time – it was time to focus on resource gathering. Overall, the first week was quite disappointing, as I even had to place Nix in the fort. I moved towards the Treasury under the Dungeon because the Treasury under the Inferno was blocked by 20-49 Skorpians. On turn 123, I determined the location of the Grail and, on the first attempt on turn 124, I dug it up (there were only 3 possible locations). As a result, on turn 127, I cleared the unblocked part of the Treasury from the Dungeon – there were Zephyrs, a Pandora with 15k health, and a Colossus under Red Dragons. Everything seemed great, but none of my heroes wanted to take the land. Not bad. On the third week, I broke through the block in this Treasury, took the Utopian, and cleared everything near the castle. I then moved to the Sand Treasury – I should have gone to the first one instead, as the Sand Treasury was not worth it. As a result, my achievements in the third week were not significant. I was doing very poorly with the lost time and made many small mistakes, which, in total, significantly slowed down the pace. On the fourth week, I broke through to the last Treasury – it was small and insignificant, just like the Sand Treasury. I destroyed the Gate of the Underworld and went to the central Gate of the Underworld. On turn 143, I noticed that the opponent was far from his main city, based on aerial scouting, and decided to attack, but while I was thinking about how to do it, the timer ran out. All I managed to do was quickly move all the troops and artifacts from the Ilore stronghold. The opponent caught me on this mistake. After that, I tried to stay close to the main city, slowly gathering resources in the large Dungeon Treasury, but aerial control didn't work, and wings are not the most useful thing in the underground. I couldn't take the main city. After the opponent bought some units, he revealed part of his Treasury in the underground and dove there (there were wings, Consorts, and a Utopian there). Basically, all I had to do was wait for him to come. I still tried to reach another Utopian in the Dungeon Treasury – it was huge and terribly uneven – but it was too far. It would take about 5-6 days to get there. I realized that with the lost time, I definitely couldn't get out (I was making mistakes at every step), and the opponent still had many places to gather resources. I decided to surrender. Goodbye, Degustatsiya! It was fun! P.S.: The Grail in the Port was a surprise for me too! I didn't know that it makes the land native for all units of the Port on the ENTIRE MAP (i.e., for both the opponent and the neutrals). Thank you for the game!
