Tournament "PATH TO OLYMPUS"
EPILOGUE:
Since new tournaments, both online and offline, appear in the Heroes community every day – or rather, they don't appear at all. I decided to organize and run this tournament. The idea of the tournament is as old as the world itself – only those participants whom I personally approve will be able to participate in it, with the exception of cases where AK prohibits someone from participating. Basically, this category includes players with 1700+ rating points, but I repeat that this criterion is not mandatory for everyone.
The prize fund for the tournament will be 10,000 rubles plus sponsorship money from anyone who wants to contribute. The distribution of prizes will be as follows:
1st place – 70%;
2nd place – 30%.
If you like the idea of the tournament, want to support it, and have the means, any material assistance will go towards increasing the prize fund (all my contact information is provided; call, write, etc.).

In the group stage, red indicates the player listed first in the pair (e.g., No. 1 vs. No. 3, meaning No. 1 is red).

Random castle selection and trade:
The host generates a random pair of castles using a special button. Immediately after generation, each player can request a regeneration once for 500 coins as compensation to their opponent. If at least one castle repeats during regeneration, that same player has the right (but is not obligated) to request one free regeneration. Trading begins with the player who is not the host of the game. If identical castles are drawn (so to speak), a free regen is carried out if at least one player expresses a desire. Provided that both agree to play mirror match, players have the right to ban 1 hero each; the host of the game starts banning heroes. In this case, there is also trading for heroes after the ban.
Color trade.
