Not absent anymore
As my group work in school is done I am now ready for some dueling. Everything is downloaded and is working, and it's a very nice map. I've watched some interesting replays here and with all the randomness involved I think that I may actually have a chance.
@Group 3: I've sent you e-mails about when I can play. Hope we can find times that will do for everyone.

Did 2 very enjoyable games with Pera. Came out 1-1.
1st game was my light Fortress vs his destructive Dungeon. I did the standard offense against him, with vitality + protection to soak up damage and opted to cast bloodlust first to slam through those dragons and raiders. His spellpower was quite weak for a warlock. His attack was pretty wicked but his army didn't really survive to use it. It ended up turning into a slaughter so he decided to forfeit prematurely so we could get in the 2nd game.

The 2nd game was my light Sylvan (empathy+tactics+basic sorcery) vs his light/destructive Academy. I was supremely confident I would nail through him, but the old Kojot wasn't about to come away with another lose. Expert defense () with expert light (fire protection), expert destructive (master of fire), and Armageddon to pound through me. I would have cried if it wasn't so awesome to witness. Empathy and sorcery gave me a wicked hero that put up a good struggle but I never quite had the window to get a full stack up and magic immune it (probably wouldn't have saved me anyway).

[quoteNow... meaning no offense to Necro-Mutant but I really really shouldn't have lost that...he went for burning arrows without Warmachines and Destruction Magic with 8 (EIGHT) Spellpower he had the Phoenix cape but that only makes it 12 SP.
to the contrary .. that shows you how mighty Hero i am
showing like this without WarMachines and 8 SP ...
well .. now that i saw i was the only 1 who beated u .. me from al the others ... thats made myself being proud on me (O_o)
about Elvin: He really did great work on his 2 strongest pupils
his Titans were undefeatable
now i have only Mike to duel .. when is he available ?
and btw .. no1 answered my question yet about how many players continue to the next phase (from each group)?
i guess i will not continue but it was so far real fun !
hope for more of that in the future

He beat both Azagal and Elvin with that Flaming Arrow Ballista as if to rub it in their faces how big nubs they are.
Or was that some kind of a lucky charm?
No, it was cold calculation.
Quote: Oh noes, that ballista shoots flaming arrows, how could I miss that he has Warmachines!
Wait, only 1 shot?
AH-HA! He's just a nub and his hero build sucks! Now I can chill on my paved road to victory
This is what was going on in your heads but in reality that bonus 50 fire damage which didn't generate any threat level for you AND the false sensation of superiority lead to you shameful demise.
The point is:
Necro-Mutant totally deserves an unlockable

Hi Necro, I am GMT -5 and can play this weekend (Saturday or Sunday morning are best), but will try to be available tomorrow night (around 7pm). It seems doubtful that I'll be free tonight, but I might be. How about you?

Game 1
Mamga (academy) Vs Nocturnal (Haven)
It was a good game. I had went for dark academy when i saw vampirism and decided that that was my destiny. Going mainly for a physical build with defense minis, defence and an artifact to boost attack.
Game 2
Mamga (dungeon) vs Nocturnal (Sylvan)
I had gone for a summoning dungeon and then cast arcane armor on my hydras. they sat around doing hydra things, like not dieing, while my phoenix went on a rampage.
again, Good games nocturnal, it was a pleasure playing against you.
edit: links not working, try this one

Thanks. It was a pleasure for me too. Low spellpower of mine killed me as my control over Phoenix lost very quickly

Umm guys. Better write scores, it can be confusing from the descriptions sometimes and it may be a while till I check the replays.

Deathy - Locksley 2-0
i finally had my games with Locksley today and able to finish the tournament on my part too.
first game was Inferno vs Academy
i had dark magic Inferno with might skills going after Dark Magic/Light Magic Academy aswell. Locksley's Academy hero had alarming low spellpower, so his puppet master was pretty weak and frenzy got countered by magic resistance so after all was done, it was mainly matter of the fact that my might Inferno simply killed his Academy units too fast despite all the dark magic around. although it was annoying to have my vampirism magic mirrored to others when i tried to save my devils haha.

second game was Stronghold vs Fortress
pure might Stronghold versus Light Fortress, not much to say, Locksley didn't have much luck with spells and after my cyclops pretty much destroyed his luck from all of his units the game was over despite rune of resurrection. also awesome was horde's anger destroying his magma dragons very fast in the game.
http://www.speedyshare.com/files/26937199/TourneyDeathyvsLocksley2.sav
this makes me the first person in our group to finish their games, with my final score being 7/10. although there's a chance i could still go to second phase with that score, veco and albo have good chance to get better one so this might have been it for me. we will see i guess i wish luck to all remaining participants and thank you to all my opponents that i played, this was definetly fun.

Deathy’s recap is spot on. My defensive Academy couldn’t survive and with all those gated stacks there were not too many targets for consume artifact or resurrection. And my efforts to possess the demons failed.
The only good thing in the second game was that I had all the funny runes, but that didn’t help much. My mage guild was weak and while the spell locations were more or less completely Dark I couldn’t learn the skill. Against another faction I would have tried destructive. The artifacts for sale were uninteresting and luck was a wasted skill.
It was sad to lose but fun to play.

Back again to report another duel. This time I had more luck.
Locksley 2 - Carcity 0
In the first game my Academy, this time offensive, defeated Carcity's Haven. A couple of ignited armageddons did much damage, while Fire resistance and Consume artifact allowed me to stay in the game. Carcity had some problems with reaching my side but his crossbowmen were strong.
Our second duel was Dwarves against Orcs. This time I played as Orcs and was able to win. Carcity had rather low stats except for knowledge and my mighty Kujin with Shatter Light (Fire resistance) and Shout-driven Fear my roar was too hard to hit hard with destructive or army.
I forgot to save a replay of the second duel; here is the one we have:
