may be DV from the start
From start DV do 0 damage, it's depend on frags (units killed by stack).
Maybe word of light, or mark of the wizard ...
Yes, right...I knew, but cose of not using it at all, i lost the meaning of DV...

Winner writes report, so ill do that now.
In the 2nd battle where i attacked him in town, i wanted to use him as townportal and try to do some damage. I didnt think ahead as you saw because i could townportal, lost everything and could do near no damage ^^.
But i knew that the game was far from over because i had 2 necro zones directly bordering to my starting zone. Infinitus left me a couple of weeks alone, so i could recover and started taking control of the map with main and secondary (Grok), killing about 4-6 (?) of his guys in the process. There was even a 4th necro town, but i wasnt able to include this in my scheme because i took it too late and it was too far away. Also i was able to access 3 merchants, getting nice stuff including boots from them.

Display of imbalanced spells in action (CotN, WoL and Divine Vengeance)
Mh yeah, thats what i was thinking before our last game too, where i played ossir vs his havez. In that game his lvl6 killed tons of my units, more then any unit in the necro-academy battle i think, and still my ossir with sp 31 did only about 900 damage. So i think dv is strong but not actually broken, because other spells were better in that game.
But we had a week of fire and ice and all direct damage in our battle was increased ^^. CotN should have dealt 444 damage but it was 888. One thing i learned  . Other thing: i thought mechanical units are immune to CotN ?!
I went into battle thinking that it would be a massacre, because i knew from last game dv isnt that hard and i had a much bigger army. I was snowing surprised when that fire and ice week h bomb hit my liches ^^. Lesson learned: if you dont plan to use dv, change week before battle.
To sum it up, maybe he could have won if he would have come to me directly after i lost my whole army, but the longer the game went, the more i profited from my ridiculous luck concerning map layout.
Thats one of the things irmg can do better btw: creating balanced maps.

Golems just decrease the dmg a bit due to magic proof though magnetics are actually healed from it

I might be wrong, since I don't use the imba spells very often, but Divine Vengeance doesn't have any Element attached to it ... so week of Fire & Ice had nothing to do with the huge damage, it was the DV's imba nature that did all that.
Can't explain the 900 you saw in another game, but probably it happened because of the lack of frags of that stack, or because of some sort of protection mini-artifacts.

I remember that cotn and wol are tied to water and fire respectively but are not boosted by phoenix cape or evercold icicle. Unsure about week effects though. It's kinda like eldritch arrow, while it is not generally considered a fire spell it can be used to blow a chain against water element.

New game started today. DrOwnage is Havez, me Ylthin. Week 3, Havez just jumped using Instant travel in my start zone. Our start zones are close each other if use Instant travel ... Most probable will be rush... To be continued ...

You could have 80% losses and it could still not mean you are a bad player or the opposite.
Heavy looses are not automatic game loose. Example is Warcraft 3, e-sport game (mean good balance) - you may have twice better economy, your opponent can loose all except main hero and in the end he can make spectacular come back and win the game...
Edit: Game Havez-Ylthin ended as draw. Havez rushed as predicted, but he forget home his most important instruments - war machines Still to stop Havez rush is not easy task. Please take a look at replays, will appreciate tips for stop such rushes. First one is sylvan hnr attempt ... Replay1, Replay 2

Now we have a replay worth posting again. Previous game were either me having crazy luck with map, skills and/or artifacts, winning game. Or I suicided.
Sylvan player had 10 stacks in town and academy player thought he would attack sylvan player in open field because extra stacks were placed in castle.
Lesson learned: only heroes behind hero in castle can put a hero in open field. Academy was embarassed and was sure to lose.

Nice game. For complete picture replays with battles of secondaries missing. Was very intense battle for towns. Unfortunately my Deleb lost battle for second academy town and DrOwnage buy here armor of forgotten hero. This prevented my to use DV in final battle. Also don't understand how my dragons get on my dead unicorns  Before battle played too much with mentor. I got all i need with little money, but i want Wyngaal to be mentor and have last stand. For this i spent tons of money to get, mentor i get in the end, no last stand. I was not expected that DrOwnage will dare to attack me in town ... This was 3nd visit of Havez to my town gates, usually he contemplate town gates and teleport home All in one, gg
