Azagal 2 - 0 Zenithale
First game: Orcs vs Dwarfs. A close fight between a fear-my-roar orc and a Destru-Summon dwarf. After the slow on my Phoenix... game was lost (no haste and I had fear to fail my dispell (shatter light) for 15 mana).
Second game: Orcs again vs Haven. Well, a slaughter not so exciting. 
Well done Azagal, thanks for the games!

Whoa nice games. Im slowly convinced that Azagal have some orc blood in his veins 
Funny because I feel that the losing of the 1st by dwarfs depended in just three small factors. If Zen would choose Flame Lords and used Firebolt on Centaurs they would be easily killed by Tholgars or Rune Priests Fireballs. The 2nd thing, the only significant role of Priests was killing weakened stack of Butchers. Fireballs or risking laying a Mark of Fire with an ordinary attack centaurs was worth the risk... Maybe...Also phoenix was ineffective  Well done Azagal

GAH bears running scared blocked the battleraged magmas  Summoning is nice but only if you've managed to wear orcs down enough, faster destructive casting would probably be for the better. Orcs kept gaining rage and there wasn't a way to stop them.
In second it was funny to see this massive stack of zealots but I feel it deprived haven from a good first-turn blow. Pallies not only keep orcs on their toes by killing half stacks before they gain rage but act faster and are tougher, their retaliation hurts. Also with chieftains around and opening up the way to the crossbows it was a matter of time till they got blocked. Guess lucky cyclops placement, it added to the pressure and formations were broken.

Wish I could call you a lucky snow but I deserved to lose the way I played Used up many buff stealing runes so I only used 2 resurrections in the game and I moved the bears that would have easily killed the arcanes and finished the game without much trouble. Even in the end I didn't move in with magmas while I could. Last game wasn't much to look at, those pallies flattened the earth under them.
Now I have an announcement to make:
I officially declare my utter n00bishness and will retire to the nearest monastery until my shame washes away. I might even find Pei there, he's probably doing the same.
Well done mate.

Academy was hopeless against a classic Haven, only dark may have stopped the carnage with lots of hero Atb positioning luck. But Sylvan vs. Dwarf was ... I don't even know what  . Mistakes bounced from one side to the other, until Elvin decided he wanted to do the biggest ones, and left the arcanes free ! Low mana on Helmar helped Mohikanin also. Oh yeah, and despite the serious mistakes there was a positive vibe as well... this game showed the power of the white bears, which I mostly neglect, except for some very specific scenarios... Against Sylvan and Inferno, they actually might be the stronger choice.
Congrats Mohi, you seem to posses a big stack of ElvinitE  , and also congrats to Azagal leader of the rebel orcs

Thanks a lot Tower
Probably Elvin's mistakes more than my good game helped me to reach semifinal, but I did my best.

Albolabris : Bania_87 0:2
1st game:
Necropolis : Inferno 0:1
My build with gating, attack, mighty balista, light magic with mass spells and defence. A lot of luck with timing.
2nd game:
Haven : Academy 0:1
I had very powerful stats, defence, attack, summon magic, sorcery and enlightsment. Luckly Albo had small attack so I could just cast spells.

Ouch. Inferno with mass cleansing and always playing second, no escape out of this one. Skelie shield wasn't used much but not much would have changed.
At least in second I can blame albo for attempting a twilight haven at the cost of retribution, defense and apparently some untrained paladins. Too risky should you bump on a might academy.
Well then, seems the quarterfinals are over and the results were not quite expected The following duelists move to the semifinals, good job guys.
Bania
Mohikanin
Azagal
Kispagat - Due to Arcax stepping aside. Cheers mate, you did well.
Bania versus Azagal and Kispagat versus Mohikanin, first to get two wins are in the finals. Deadline is 10 days again, you have till 14 May.

Apparently Arcax is undecided, I'll give it one more day till I get a definite answer. I am in difficult position because on one hand he deserves to play, on the other should he play and win but won't have time to play in the finals it all ends up messy for everyone. The alternative I suppose is everyone finishing his games within a few days but there are no guarantees.
Edit: Whoops sorry zenithale! No idea how I confused you with kispagat, guess I should avoid updates when I'm tired..

Seems that Arcax can arrange his games soon so if Azzie and bania do not delay there won't be any trouble.
And actually you may still have something to play for Zenithale It was not possible to have a losers cup in the first phase but I bet those who got the short end of the stick in quarterfinals might be interested?
That leaves me, you, kispagat and albo. Could look pretty good if you guys are up for it.
