The latter, we want to see blood! And phoenix will take care of the other matchup if he agrees.

Edit: Seems not, I suppose we'll wait and see how the matchups play out and worry about that later.

after 3 crazy games with lepastur what can i say
i was lucky since i am the luckiest player around

1st game
academy (me) vs sylvan (lepastur)
really long good game we both went dark and light, and since neither had cleansing nor immunity and he had shield of dwarven whatever (frenzy immunity),my shooting power was 0 after his confusion,also he had good resistance so his arcanes were confused after 3 attempts,both were hard to kill at the end i had more mana and won

2nd game
dwarves(lepastur) vs dungeon(me)
again pretty good battle ,this time i had too low mana pool(didn't get offered enlightment) and no luck to trigger Erratic Mana on my 2 weak attempts on meteor,at the end light and destructive proved to be too strong after good battle

3d game
orc(me) vs lepastur(sylvan)
i got expert shatter dark just in case ,little protection ,resistance, lepastur had his dark light sylvan again and got both confusion and slow ,however lacked mass light spells so relied on ressurection at the end fear my roar and orc power decided the battle


at the end i won 2-1

Very impressive games with the academy-sylvan one being a must see There were a few mistakes from either side but enjoyable duels as expected. Dungeon game needed more mana and I also believe blackies would have a bigger impact, of course it was a gamble based on what the opponent had. It was close either way. With orcs it's just impressive what untamed can do and how orcs can prevail even against dark when they are prepared for it. I would have avoided hasting paokai, they rarely survive long and there were pristines in the field. Also there was a time when centaurs could have finished those druids but even one extra powerful double resurrection could not turn the tide.

The academy game was easily the most interesting and it was a great victory for academy. First off sylvan's stats were outrageous. Secondly their resistance was pretty damn good and triggered in the right moments on the right units. Larry made a smart use of minies and having anticipated a long endurance match he made sure to use defense reducing tactics - speaking of which you may have noticed that battlemages' ranged attack does not weaken all targets. I could have sworn I recently saw it work in more that one units at a time yet when I had tried in the past only the initial target was affected. I also liked was the way stacks were used, sometimes less is more On sylvan's side it would have been better if druids used channeling earlier and they made sure arcanes stay protected. Those golems were a major setback.

Wolfsburg beat me 2:0. During Dungeon vs Inferno it was obvious I had no idea what I was doing, but I had hoped I had a chance with Sylvan (vs Academy). First I had a few misclicks LOL, then his Luck started kicking in, but he also proved to be a better player with a few great moves, such as summoning Crystal just in time to prevent me from resurrecting my Arcanes. Again, congrats and good luck!

In the first game playing Dungeon, Eruina was scary. After checking out all possibilities, I decided for Ice mastery only. After getting swift mind, I bought myself a nevermelting icicle and a couple other SP boosting arties and went for it. Vlaad, playing inferno had the poor luck of having almost all of his creatures fire aligned, further increasing my ice damage.

Check it out here:

Second duel was a bit longer
Playing academy my mage guild had both phoenixes and elemmentals, plus regeneration, ressurection, haste and righteous might. Not resisting the temptation I tried an alternative build based on light and summon magic, with an extra on luck and defense. Vlaad playing Sylvan with light and destructive magic didnīt manage to hold back the phoenixes and fire-ellies that kept popping.

You can check it out here:

Once and again, thanks for the game Vlaad, and sorry about me taking so long to finally play with you.

The winner of the fight is determind on your pwning level. You can raise your pwning level by winning fights. At the start of the game your pwing level is zero so it is impossible to win a fight.

Zamfir! Some evil voodoo spell has shinked your avatar's head to a microscopic old beggars head with an improvised pan-made viking helm!

You poor guy!

First game required a fast and furious approach, dark won't protect you from destructive, basic warmachines suck and gating only slows you down and gives casting time to the warlock. Also no luck/morale. Not that it's easy to deal with dungeon as inferno..

In second there were a few mistakes from either side but it was fun Wolfie forgot minies but was lucky enough to get defense, also decay on arcanes first turn..? On Vlaad's side he should have aimed that freeze on rakshasas that were about to play - or even better use a rain of meteors. Now that would be awesome Unfortunately he kept the druids in the front so they fell prey to the phoenixes soon. Rakshasas would be better off staying in the back just like treants would be better off moving ahead. Finally I saw no mass spells from either side, it's a pretty good investment for half a turn.

That all reminds me that I have not played the map in a while. Wonder how rusty I have become since



After a game with typhys I spotted one bug with inferno, the seer's hut gave shatter dark instead of cloak of sylanna I had chosen the artifact from the list but the objective had remained the same as orcs..

Update.

I will also see what I can do about the dwarven script, it's annoying.

Just a reminder, deadline ends on Wednesday. I expect those who have not finished their games by then to give me a good reason if they wish to remain in the tournament.



Vokial and Attila are disqualified.  Wolfsburg will play veco and Larry will fight Azagal, as for lucky dwarf.. See if you can contact someone from those listed in the tournament, maybe Vlaad wants to take his blood back?

Meanwhile Asheera has fixed the dwarven script so as to activate when you pass through your garrison, no more rune issues Also tweaked a bit starting gold.

Get it here.

Sure, but shouldn't lucky_dwarf fight veco? The winner would fight Wolfsburg. If I got it right, there would be four semi-finalists that way.

Elegant solution Vlaad. I should have been more careful, that's what happens when you post dead tired.

Edit: All people but veco can go on, Attila will try to have that game finished within a few days. Lucky dwarf should find an opponent by then if vokial doesn't show up.

It is a bit but you've got a deal. Return strong



With the finals just around the corner I dug up my replay archive. Many things have changed since including the map's balance, the way we used to play, available spells, army strength.. The criteria for selecting the replays were of course funny, weird strategies or tactical skill

Part 1 (156 replays)

There is one more to come when the small final is over. Part 2 is consisted of the top replays under the map's final form - including a small part of chaos and order games.
