The match could have turned the other way if I had good spells, but I was not careful and only managed to get Adv. Destructive. I was able to use mentor, ofc, but there was no way to return to get level 5 spells (and a nice Deep Freeze was waiting in the shop).

On the might part my hero was pretty solid, with Off., Deff. Formations, Retribution and Preparation, but this wasn't enough to take down Elvin buffed units (not to count he had Empathy).

This, and I took a few wrong upg. decisions (like the tier 4, I wasn't given the opportunity to use Berserk, so Battleragers would have been better).

My last moves were more a joke (Rune of Battle Rage with 2 Skirmishers!!!), because the odds were overwhelming. I was just casting a suicidal Meteor Shower when... d/c.

All in all, it was a deserved victory for Elvin. Good luck in the following matches.

Having watched Blizzardboy's dwarf fight I'm not surprised he resigned, I would have done the same. I'm pretty sure he could not have won, Larry's phoenix was stronger and he also had resurrection so he would outlast him. Dwarven units were not as damaging and academy's could hold their own till the birdie slowly turned the tide. With arcane armour it was possible, especially if he had regeneration. Gotta love that combo.

Just finished my 2 games vs Arcax:

1. Haven (me) - Academy (Arcax)
2. Academy (me) - Haven (Arcax)

I lost them both like the biggest noob on the planet... universe!

Both games were not bad, fist time I made common mistake by "forgeting" that Academy can use dark magic too, so all heroes turns were cleaning and cleaning and cleaning... I tried to rush him like crazy with all units and I even killed a lot of his creatures (60-65% LOL), but Arcax is simply better

In the second game I did the wrost academy build that can be make even after ages. At the end I spammed Raise death like noobie, too bad it was late... The second match was just catastrophic... He got me in the way a shark is going to eat a single sprat fish.

Point for Arcax, I hope he is going to win (you have better excuse when a champ beated you)




May I got "Heroes 5 Sprat fish" rank on the first page?

It's way too early for me to post this since my pride would need atleast a few months to heal from how much I humiliated myself...

Towerlord won 2:0 against me. That wouldn't be bad if I hadn't lost in such undignified ways. First was his fortress against my Academy and well... he outthunderclaped and outbuffed me by a mile. My troops were very good gimps taking an awful beating. That match wasn't sooo humiliating he pretty much just crushed me (looking at the setup and my spells my dignity could still find enough reasons to still exist).

Now the second game on the other hand... His Inferno vs. my Necro. I have good experiences with this match up (usually being on the inferno side). So my plan was to go dark for frenzies and puppets and slow. Got slow and frenzy but no puppet. Nothing to worry about yet. And summoning for AA and phoenixes. Got both but no summoning magic -_-. But yeah my first 8 levels were hillarious... choice:
WM or logistics? Neither thank you... I go expert necromancy. Again WM or logistics? Screw you! I pick the necromancy perk. Next level WM or logistics. GAAH! Ok no big deal I'll pick logistics it'll wear off somehow! And yeah to make a long story short I got LEADERSHIP and WM and Luck a lot. Lady luck is such a snow oO. Of all times to give me 2% skills she does it when I'm necro.
But that's not all... aparently Towerlord is one mean sex bomb seeing how she gave light magic and magical immunity. But to top things off I decided to pick my necromancy bonus units later because I wasn't sure what to pick against inferno apart from skelies and vamps. Yeah after upgrading my units I couldn't get one stack as they were all unupgraded DUUUUUH!!!

There is nothing wrong with losing, I can lose, no problem. But for crying out loud atleast let me do it in a dignified way oO. Awwww seriouly Towerlord I'm sorry for not having been worth yor time -_-. Usually I'm more of a challenge.

Now I might even join that Arena tournament just to redeem myself. Then again I might get raped horribly... we'll see but now I'll try to let my pride heal a bit.

EDIT:
If you want replays you can ask Towerlord but there's no way you'll get them out from me!

Dwarfs vs Academy was a hopeless one from the start... On very rare ocasions academy can win if they get better att/def than dwarf, but ...

And also, defeating Inferno with Necro without the bonus army is kinda difficult, especially when Inferno gets lucky to get Light

Finished the last game with Larry as Inferno(Bliz)1 vs Sylvan(Larry)0. He held out surprisingly well considering light Sylvan has such a hard time vs Inferno:

Overall the match was 2(Bliz): 1(Larry)

A good reminder that sylvan is not meant to be a ranged only faction. Then again he didn't use silver unicorns, liked how you forced him to retaliate against all your units activating motd in the process. DIE DIE DIE!!

if i learned something it's that there is no need to experiment when u play final games

had 1 totally useless skill(expert summoning),also bought 2 lvl5 summoning spells ,which i never used in spell shop and therefore couldn't upgrade dragons since marketplace doesn't work
also had 2 favorite units and forgot to go to memory mentor before the battle
anyway i even had pretty good battle ,could have played better ,maybe even win
and yep u're right 'bout other unicorns (with some luck they could win the battle)

Makes sense, summoning is best used for defensive strategies. How come you never summoned a phoenix?

well it was really to risky
pit lords could kill'em in 1 hit also puppet,frenzy
so it would be a gamble with too low chances for good effect (also i would lose 35 mana)
it's not that i couldn't predict that before
however not visiting memory mentor before battle in order map is pretty big mistake,since here is goal to make best hero and u have money to do so
also have i taken destructive,luck ,morale this could be different story

Crystals Dragons would have helped your cause a lot, and yea, visiting the mentor

The biggest mistake I made in that battle was that I forgot to fireball right away with my gated pit lords and finish off the arcanes, I jumped the gun and attacked the unicorns right away. You could have ressed them anyway, but their buffs would be gone. I also accidentally attacked the treants with my succubus for their first shot. Other than that and probably a few more minor mistakes it was a pretty smooth game for me. The biggest problem I had with leveling was master of mind wouldn't pop up (except for when leadership did early on, and I took leadership ), so you were sparred mass confusion, but other than that I liked my build.

It's hard to say how things would have played if you went destructive. I would have been able to draw out and kill your high druids early on with no magic immunity, but you'd probably still have 2 rounds of big damage.
