"King of the Hill-2" Tournament

King of the Hill is an ongoing tournament based on the "play until you are defeated" principle, where only two players can participate at a time – the loser gives up their place to the next contender, and the winner continues playing until they lose themselves. In other words, players must try to defeat the current King of the Hill and end his winning streak; the player who defeats him takes his place. The winner of the previous tournament is HellLight.

6. If any controversial issues arise, please discuss them outside the forum. To resolve them, contact one of the organizers or the tournament judge via ICQ and provide daily save files, ICQ logs, and other necessary information.
7. Any unjustified delays in the game, squabbles, and disrespectful behavior towards opponents will be strictly punished, up to a permanent ban from the tournament.

Paid 1000 for the castle and 1000 for the color, 500 to Vitaly for the re-roll of a pair (seemed like barb-dungeon). So I started at -3500. I took 1 rest, my opponent took all 3, then there were a couple more techs, and finally we started playing. Goshi came in as the 3rd hero with 2 stacks. Despite total lack of money and underworld, my conscience wouldn’t allow me to rest Goshi. On the first week, I went to necro and grab resources in the depth of the spawn, while leveling up the pope. By 121 I had 100+ skeletons, the external dwelling gives arch! I thought it was a cakewalk and went straight on the attack while necroing on the side. However, on the large territory I found only 1 mini-Griffin Conservatory and an entrance to a super-treasure zone, which I couldn’t enter yet. I arrive at the opponent’s in the middle of the second week and was stunned. He has wings on the ground and more skeletons than I do. Plus a stack of vives. And by the end of the week, his stats were twice as high as mine. Sad. However, I split my troops in parallel, grabbed all possible resources, and built/rebuild the Mage Guild. Dimension Door on the 2nd try, Town Portal on the 3rd – an excellent result! Went into the lategame. Vitaly roamed treasures (turns out, not very successfully), while I mostly leveled up losers to have more heroes with mana/TP/DD. As they say, I spread the "tentacles of FTS" across the map. I wanted to go for a 211 standard REdrash but didn’t make it in time because I got distracted by a loser for the Golden Bow. And not in vain. On 212, the FB at the barbarian’s castle actually happened, and the Golden Bow performed quite well against the eyes and the ballista. The fight took place under Vitaly’s cloak, and he, of course, immediately destroyed my catapult. It turned into an exchange of bolts. I had more mana and power. Thanks for the interesting game!

Thanks for an interesting game!
Yes, the game turned out to be interesting; I liked the match even though the result wasn't in my favor).
On the first [day] I grabbed 3 towns (2 villages and a green AI). There are 3 Necros, and right from the first days, the strategy was Necro + Kiryu tempo. I did very good scouting and found 3 utopias, 2 near my villages.
on 125 I beat the wings, built up nearly 400 skeletons, and on 126 broke the first utopia; it was a good mini one. Then the opponent arrived; on 127 I cleared another utopia, running half the map with wings to my other treasure spot. The 2nd utopia let me down; on 132 I grabbed another one, then based on views, I ran to the zone where more utopias could be. This was the largest underground zone. I arrived there and found 2 more utopias, grabbed some 3s, but again nothing for magic; in total from 5 utopias (three 3s, one 2, and a mini) I got nothing for control, though the stats were decent). I rebuilt my magic about 5 times — 4th level and about 3 times 5th; a bunch of scrolls turned out to be useless. In the end, my tempo dropped and I had a smaller army... and I spent several days on that treasure spot which turned out to be empty. 2 days before FB I finally put up a portal, but it was already of little use; I never found DD. I thought I'd carry it in the castle with parameters, but there was a crowd of Archs and Vivs gr.
Thanks for an interesting game!

Got wrecked, produced nothing but junk. The only plus was Tazar, but even he leveled up like garbage. Artillery, water. Hives/Conservatories deep in the snow, not a single hero with Pathfinding. On 113 I took a Giant from an external dwelling and immediately got wiped to zero in a Hive on 6. Had to wait for 116 and the Naga build. In short, with terrible difficulty, having gathered 5 Angels and 28 Wyverns and taken a Dragon Utopia mostly for gold, I made it to the center on 126 and claimed the central swamp. Thankfully, the center was weak, and there was an entrance to a snowy adjacent zone nearby. Turn 131 turned out to be pivotal. A boosted Tazar reached a prison on his last moves, from which Dragon, in turn, reached the tower on his last step. I build a lookout tower, see many Hives, a Conservatory, Pandora's Boxes, a Dragon Utopia, all convenient... No one had control yet, and I thought I could keep playing and playing, but the tournament deadlines were pressing hard, and Egor preferred to finish the game with Hellight in another tournament, conceding the victory to me. Thanks for the game!

I retreated; the map was trash. The only plus was Tazar, but even he leveled up like garbage. Artillery, water. Hives/cons in deep snows, not a single hero with search. On 113 I took a giant from an external dwelling and immediately wiped out to zero in a hive on 6. Had to wait until 116 and the nag buildings. In general, with a terrible struggle, gathering 5 angels and 28 same-days and taking the Dragon Utopia mainly for money, I moved to the center on 126 and took the central swamp. Luckily the center turned out to be weak and there was an entrance to the snowy border nearby. Turn 131 became the turning point. An accelerated Tazar reached the prison on the last moves, from which the Dragon, in turn, reached the tower on the last step. I build a lookout, see many hives, a con, pandoras, the utopia, everything is convenient... No one had control yet, and I think it was possible to play on and on, but tournament deadlines were pressing hard, and Egor preferred to finish the game with Helllight in another tournament, giving me the victory. Thanks for the game!

The map was trash too; on 115 I wanted to surrender, but on 116 I scouted 4 hives and a con. On 123 I came out with a small army, creg without logi but with oil. On 134 we saved, there are 2 adjacent Tower respawns, I have the necro respawn and center, would need to play at least a couple more weeks, but deadlines are pressing.
Thanks for the game.

Rollback +1100 for everything. After all the resets, I got a decent deal, to the point where Galtran wasn't particularly frightening. By the end of the week, I placed Bulls in a Citadel with an external dwelling, and bought Gunnar towards the end. By the end of the week, I took a minimal Griffin Conservatory, claimed the native computer on Angel on 122, then took Conflux village with Gunnar, started building a tower, and went into the treasure zone with Pit Lords and slow, but then Alkin chain-finds Kostya's 6k village, where a bunch of Loaches swarm in response. On my turn, I recaptured the village and catch up to Gosha with Gunnar and the Moshnaya.
The autopsy showed it was a one-sided giveaway. Dunno why I wrote all this out)

Rollback +1100 for everything. After all the rests, I was given a decent change, so much so that Galtran wasn't particularly scary. By the end of the week, I placed behemoths in the Citadel with an external dwelling, and also bought Gunnar towards the end. By the end of the week, I took the minimal Griffin Conservatory, on an angel at 122 I captured the native computer, then with Gunney I took a Conflux village, started building a tower and went with peasants with earth and slow into the treasure zone, but here Alkin with chains finds Kostya's 6k village, where a bunch of heroes rush in response. On my turn, I recapture the village and catch up to Gosha with power using Gunnar.
Autopsy showed that the distribution was one-sided. Dunno why I wrote all this)
Thank you for the game!

With perfect play on my part, I would have lost this map around 134-136. But a bad decision and the main hero's betrayal with power ended the game sooner:). True kings respect the time of other kings;). Thanks for the game!

On turn 117, I took the Consulate level 2, having 200 bones. On turn 122, Galtran arrived, and I took the Key Zone behind the wood with him, having 400+ bones. After that, everything is clear: a couple of undead with a lot of stats, then wings behind the trolls, and I went to look for slaves. Tazar peacefully laid down his weapons and surrendered.

On turn 117, I captured the Consulate 2 with 200 skeletons. On turn 122, Galtran arrived and captured the Castle behind the lumber mill with over 400 skeletons. After that, everything was clear: a couple of undead units with a lot of stats, then wings behind the trolls, and I started looking for slaves. Tazar peacefully laid down his weapons and surrendered.

The King surrendered like a true king :(
