Another thing to keep in mind is that good players don't need too much luck to make their luck

Indeed... in my game with Jorko... 460 Haggash Centuars move 1st.. then His Chieftans punch centuars.. he loses 4 centuars.. and immediately 456 Haggash centuars get to go.. lol... and all game went like that.
Thats like saying... Ossirs Arcane Archers get to move first then Arcane Archers get to go immediately again..
Anyone can win a game under them circumstances.

Strider HL (haven, Rutger) won Valentin (stronghold, Garuna) - RR Tournament Edition, Week 3, day 4
Series score: 2-0 (till 3 victories)
Description:
Val insisted on full random and it brought us haven vs orcs. I felt a bit uneasy about this setup. I continued with the starting hero Rutger and Val managed to chain bloodthirsty Garuna. Moreover, path to lvl7 dwelling was blocked by lots of achmages and the only surrounding walkers were bloodwitches guarding the garrison. Even trading post was occupied by master hunters.
It got easier when the fast-legged knight descended underground. Yet the creeping was still risky. I got w/m only at lvl 14 and ballista at lvl 19. Two relatively easy relic guards in the caves were balanced out by blackies and emeralds near garrison to the center. Luckily, Rutger collected all quests first but as later we found out then Val had gotten at least the bonus for lvl6 dwelling as well. Strange...
Anyway, I attacked the controlled garrison on day 1, week 3. Grabbed the staff in one corner, cleared the island and then Val broke as well. Though he had exp w/m and flaming but Garuna lacked the ballista perk. I was concerned that the daring orc might suicide and had to help a bit to have a proper final. However, Val was left with only 5 blood-eyed cyclops against my full army. Also, boosters and arts had their formidable contribution as Rutger's combined attack/defense were 2x higher.
Replay: didn't make one for apparent reasons
In conclusion, thank you, Val, for another charged game. Sadly, he had creeping problems with Garuna that played the major role in the outcome. See you in next game

Strider HL (necro, Vladimir) won Valentin (inferno, Marbas) - RR Tournament Edition (player controlled garrisons), Week 3, day 2
Final score: 3-0 (till 3 victories)
Description:
Game was hard for Val and that is the main description of it. I creeped ahead fast though i almost did have spells. Vladimir broke to the middle flawlessly on day 6, week 2. Three days later Marbas followed but with heavy losses. Final was formality.
Replay: didn't make one for apparent reasons
Thx for the interesting games, Val! I hope to see you on TOH charts more often  This time i was luckier and the small size of RR in last two games took its toll as there are little room to recover if the start is average.
Finally next round of the Caesars can start! GL to remaining contenders

We started the 1st game of The Caesars Finals with Fire yesterday.
His Yrwanna vs. my Deleb on Dark Realm 1.1.
We played yesterday and this morning yet the game is advancing very slowly due to immense amount of fighting done by inferno creepers (without magic/wm).
Later i'll post some more details.

Indeed, we stroke from the following pairs:
Fire Strider
1. Yrwanna - Jhora
2. Alastor - Rutgher
3. Sylvan - Nur
4. Yrwanna - Deleb
5. Lethos - Kragh
I was the first to strike and later to choose color. My disliking fell on 3rd and 5th pair while Fire eliminated 1st and 2nd. I picked the yellow side.
Turns are immense even by my standards due to Dark Realm specifics of multiple simultaneous combat action. As one might imagine then inferno secondaries with army of imps alone are very, very slow creepers.
We saved on day 5. I'm doing averagely good and Fire seems to roll well also. As I understand then his training camp of 7 games on the map with DrOwnage has made Fire into real Dark Real native hehe Will see how it turns out 
Also we already had 2 d/c. One was on the first turn due to my inet and was real letdown as i was lucky to recruit Kaspar with tent. 2nd d/c was at the end of very long turn when Fire experienced "fatal error". Naturally, reloads didn't contribute to the fast game development
I'll keep you informed of the coming news

The first game of the Caesars final is at the climax. It's week5, day 1 and fire has landed on the island near my mainland. He passed the water garrison flawlessly as Yrwanna surprised with defence, light, staff of the netherworld and 6 piece Dragon combo. No replay as the garrison troops were completely incapable in face of the perfectly developed warlock.
We plan to finish the game on Saturday. Should be interesting

The first game of The Caesars Final has finished.
Strider HL (Deleb, Inferno) wins fire-dragon008 (Yrwanna, Dungeon)
The battle took place on day 4, week 5. Yrwanna's armageddon was impressive but Deleb had rallied a great deal more troops. I got lucky morale on devils but my movement calculations were imprecise and this gift was wasted. Luckily, it didn't decide outcome of the game.
To sum up, in The Caesar Final till 3 victories:
Strider HL 1 - 0 firedragon-008
Thx for the game. See you soon in round 2!

This is a quote taken from the Chaos discussion thread.. where I was told that I didnt understand my acadamy strategy since everyone knows that Warmachines can be destroyed with Destructive spells... please watch the Replay of ceasars final.. Notice that Warmachines are NOT affected... just as I thought. So goes back to my previous argument that Mirrored Destructive spells should not be allowed to land on warmachines if they cannot normally be targeted

Pathetic. We this kind of play, only way he could win is if strider suicides. And we all know, strider doesn't suicide  All in all, not worth a Caesar's final.

Yes they are, destroyed them with destructive countless times. Even with armageddon, however empowered armageddon is bugged. You may remember that it doesn't also work with ignite while the regular one does.
Trust me, Albo has done his homework
