Temple Official Tourney
This season has been relatively slow with a few mishaps along the way. For that reason I decided to organize a serious tournament for the temple and give people the chance for a fresh start.
Here is the basic idea.
Those interested in participating should make a post here. The contestants will be divided into small equally strong groups where they will have to play 2 games with each player from their group. A month will be given until all games are completed with a week delay tops.
The top duelists will be awarded a qp and proceed in the play-offs where we will hopefully get some sweet replays
ORDER DUEL 1.01
Map Features
The map we will use is an order variation whose goal is to provide enjoyable games and improved balance without being bland.
- Army strength is that of week 7, sphinx gives lvl 21.
- You may choose one of the three artifact areas, 2 major and 3 minor arties in each.
- A number of the artifacts has been removed for balance purposes.
- Academy and dungeon keep their town merchant.
- Armageddon, word of light, cotn, divine vengeance, earthquake and rune of charge banned.
- Sorrow is given by default but will not appear in guild/shrines.
- No restrictions in arcane library.
- 2 witch huts help with skill building.
- There are no specialties hence campaign heroes are enabled.
- Warmachine hp increased(ballista 1600, tent 100, cart 500) and tent now has 5 healing shots.
- The map features some of Zenithale's special arenas.
Also a few upgrades have been tweaked.
- Pristines get free light spells at advanced than expert mastery.
- Torpor factor 2.5 instead of 3.
- Foul wyvern venom 10 instead of 5 dmg.
- Call storm does 15 dmg instead of 10.
- Death wail does 15 dmg instead of 10.
- Ride by attack does 0.5 dmg instead of 0.25.
- Liquid breath does 15 dmg instead of 10.
- Assault factor 1.2 instead of 1.
Rules
- In the first phase each plays 2 games with everyone in their group.
- The Deadline is April 22.
- Should a person withdraw and not play at least half of his games then his games are deleted.
- In the case of draw for the last play-offs position it will be decided in the best of three.
- Factions are chosen randomly.
- You have the right for restart if you get mirror.
- Using mentor to gain above maximum mana is not permitted.
- You must pick a native hero.
- You may not fight on native ground.
- We use hamachi version 1.0.1.5
TOURNAMENT FORMAT
In First Phase everyone plays against everyone in his group. That will be 2 duels per opponent and the top four of each group advance to play-offs.
In the Quarter Finals
- 1st player from 1st group meets 4th player from 2nd group (match-up A)
- 2nd player from 1st group meets 3rd player from 2nd group (match-up B)
- 3rd player from 1st group meets 2nd player from 2nd group (match-up C)
- 4th player from 1st group meets 1st player from 2nd group (match-up D)
Decided in the best of 3 so 2 wins required.
In the Semi-Finals:
- winner of match-up A plays against winner of match-up C
- winner of match-up B plays against winner of match-up D
Again best of 3.
Top 2 players will clash in the finals, best of 5.

would never have guessed that assault was weak but unfortunately the alternative is usually much more attractive so never gets tried

Just curious: would you please be specific about
a) banned artifacts
b) What exactly about gaining more than maximum mana with mentors not allowed? If you spell it out exactly than people have no excuse of doing it.
c) Ban sorrow, WoL and CoTN? How powerful are those spells?

First of all there are no relics. From the others there are no artifacts that give over +3 to a stat, that grant extra speed/immunities or elemental artifacts - both those that give +50% and those that reduce elemental dmg by half.
By extra mana I mean learning intelligence, visiting well to get maximum mana and then removing intelligence for another skill.
Sorrow is hardly powerful, in fact nobody ever uses it. Usually it just deprives you from a lvl 1 mass dark spell which really hurts when the only mass spell you have is confusion. Wol and cotn CAN be ok but if you get too much spellpower they can win the game easily.
As you ahve probably deduced I want to avoid such lucky cases, after all they don't offer fun games. It's just spamming the same spell, no creativity.

You can count me in this time. But I'm rusty. 
What is the Hamachi network? I will try to be free for a training this evening.

Two things. It will often deprive you of a lvl 1 mass spell that hurts a lot dark casters, especially if the only mass spell you get is confusion. Secondly it's not like anyone ever uses it. I may add it through a preset shrine so as not to miss it altogether.
Btw if anyone wants a practice game I'll be here for a few hours.

You missed out arcane excellence/dark ritual combo. But anyway, what if I was forced to get that skill and I really don't want it? More specifically, would it be possible to script the map so that when you pass the "gate", your mana pool is emptied except for the 100 temporary mana if you have that skill?

Yeah you get the basic idea. If you don't like your skills you simply delete them with the mentor before you refill your mana. Don't see why you'd want to script that, it works just fine as it is.
