Afraid not, when I removed those with less than half games played scores were modified accordingly. Behold the sad spectacle of group 2 unfold before your curious eyes, let them feast upon it 
Normally I wouldn't give qps like that except I promised - without of course expecting THAT.
Edit:
Btw Mohikanin's max games should be 13, there was a match where he only played one of the two games.

You could have let us know long beforehand, regardless the clock is ticking and the next phase has already begun.

It is a pity that I could not play the game around Larry. The situation could in order to change. I can see that some aren't coming to spray enough seriously. The thanks for games and successes farther.

I dunno Bliz, I have asked for players to join for a week or two and they didn't bother. If you like I can wait another week but I don't see it happening.
First game with Mohikanin was just concluded and it was nothing short of epic  He threw chain lightning and horde's anger at me from his comfortable turtling spot while I charged him with mass spells, in the end he was overwhelmed. Ring of caution that I had on to help against an orkish onslaught eventually hindered me, also mohi did a good job at taking the right shatter skills and weakening my spellpower considerably - unfortunately for him I had unnaturally high mana reserves. Also kudos for good sky daughter action, not many would attempt the gamble and get it right.
Replay 1
1-0 for now.

Hmm... interesting match. That was some ballsy use of Defile Magic (best moment is where it fails but still only 1 puppet goes down xD). I'm not entirely sure whether I agree with Orcs camping though especially against Necro. I mean in this case it might have been the better option indeed considering Elvin had luck but unless you face Elvin one really can't consider that... I think an early puppet on the gobos might have screwed that plan over hard but Elvin was cautious? Anyways good match, I was totally rooting for the Orcs .

I've seen my share of lucky resists so I figured I'd play it safe since I was confident that I'd pull through. It's been a while since I last skipped sorcery with necro but it wasn't exactly essential in that kind of battle.

The problem with such a build for orcs is that you don't get to build up rage (which you could do reeeeally fast with shout but you'd have to go melee) and that you sit there and the opponent gets to cast for free. I mean you got to cast endurance, slow and weakness before things even got serious. I think that if he had broken formation earlier more could have been achieved. But then again that might simply be bloodcrazed melee babarian in me speaking...

He didn't have shout of rage I think, always a great rage booster. Myself I wasted too much time with -1 speed miscalculation and sending the dragons in, ghosts could have drained the daughters' mana a lot faster. I prefer shout with melee myself but in this match daughters were his key card with rapid slow/haste/lightning casts, had they been neutralized I'd curse everything to death and take him down by might anyway. After all he lacked a bit in might skills and without earth daughters his melee would be even less.

Maybe a 2nd stack of daughters + turtling with paokais instead of sending them to the front would make some effect hmm
Anyway that was fun  Mohik had empathy ?

Not really that close... but it is really hard to win against Necro.
Shout of rage might have made a big difference in this kind of aproach, but I guess that wasn't available. The chosen centaurs and the witches were the right ones for this duel, and more or less all the other creatures, but contrary to public oppinion goblins were not. They hardly block any spell, and they leave you without the slowing traps, not to mention they deal more damage when frenzied
Also, I think placement was not that good, along with the targets chosen for the Anger shout, which could've been taken out by troops easier than the dragons and wraiths. Also the first chain lightning without rage, was a rash decision, and the weird movement of the ducks, instead of going straigth for centaur protection.

Agree with Tower. I know it's from different map and battle conditions but i think it as a small proof for the opinion above...

Hello everybody
It's hard for me last time to write anything about my games, but I'll try to change it.
First of all I'm glad to meet Elvin in quarterfinal - we will see, maybe you'll take revenge
About the first game, this pair is realy hard to win with orcs. I had no empathy 
Thanks for this part and prepare for last two games

Yeah I remember that one, lovely chain action towards the end. Thing is that dark can break the whole combo - just a matter of timing. There was another fun replay with sky daughters vs necro maybe veco remembers which one it was. I should have it somewhere.
