What do you know, Zilo's unpredictability fell into a predictable pattern Well played Nat.

Very well played for Nat
And to Zilo for always making his troops so hard and annoying to take down

Quote: First I want to say that Zilo is not stupid. He knows that with destructive he can`t kill me or unless he is very lucky to get 30 sp with booster and lucky spells.
Secondly, every game he plays something different so it is obvious that he will take other hero in tavern. Moreover we played that pair once and he used other hero again. I know his style
Maybe everybody has noticed but everybody understood why I had done so.
In the way you handled things, a simple 20 Sp Empowered Fireball or Meteor Shower with booster would take out half of your titans, mages and really harm the others also from 1 shot. Four of those would leave you with no army.
And secondely, it is not so obvious imo, as it doesn't really make sense to hire orc, demon, wizard, and probably dwarf. And also you can get a third warlock, or you might not get light or dark spells, to fit the hero type you get...
So, I'd say the possibility of facing a real warlock, without any kind of protection, was about 60-70%, but I guess you counted your odds better.

Nothing complicated here i think. You just wait your opponent to level up his hero, buy army etc ... After some time you just look in tavern (in tavern or even more powerful tool ) and see your opponent take Sylvan hero as main hero for dungeon army, after this risks are minimal to pick wrong tactic.

Only problem is that there is no tavern... so you don't know who you are facing until the very last moment, when you meet him

Quote: You play ONLY random map and if you look at save why others should do it??
Are you returning me a favor, Infi? You welcome. But I am not offended. When final is close people enjoy drama.
And to conclude with a risk to repeat myself, If you use more powerful tools , don`t blame others. Especially when you can't prove anything. You only create enemies. It is a friendly advice

I think there should be a new rule in arena since there are so much surprise elements in heroes choosing nowadays. Obviously, the ones who took longer to prepare is at an advantage.
Day 1 end turn for save, Day 2 before battle start,
when both heroes are ready, end again without going to the center.
Day 3 battle, both heroes have 30 secs to reach battle ground.
That will ensure absolute fairness.

When it comes to terrain choosing it's as fair as it gets. Players alternate turns on who picks first.

Played game 9 with Nat, I lost, so the final score is 4-5 for Natalka
Last game continued my series of experiments. This time took Sorgal with Fortress. Unfortunately did some snowups during levelups, so at the end had to spend huge money on mentoring and had almost no army, which turned out to be cruitial, when facing academy with destructive.
Zilo-Natalka game 9
Grats to Nat, well done! Was one of the most intersting arena play-off series I ever had.

I watched all the replays, it was very close and interesting so far.
Congrats to Nat !!! And to Zilo for dishing out such an interesting finals
And it seems fortress are suddenly considered too weak now. I noticed they're almost not striked out lately

Zilo was my best opponent so far. He was like a rock in striking and really very creative. I am glad that I finally managed to beat Zilo in playoffs(till now he eliminated me twice). Ty for the games.
I want to thank a few ppl:
Sq79-most importantly ,for the invaluable practice he gave me and for the sleepless nights we spent together
Elit- who gave me support throughout tournament
Jinxer- who said the infamous sentence "I know how Natalka plays...."and motivated me to win in the end
Towerlord-last but not least for organizing this spectacular tournament
