Still one of the best reviews ever made, and hoping someday Stationfall gets the game.
Wonderful!
Was the final game mentioned at the end of the video ever posted?
It has not been posted 😢
sounds like you enjoy the game?
@@5hrsbefore1998 i do!
Best unboxing video for this game! It's cool to see someone who knows the game well and is so excited about a physical copy. Thank you for sharing
Still reeling from that Oath review over here. Not gonna lie: I am hoping for a similarly creative review of Arcs!
This was very satisfying to watch. Great unboxing video!
Yeah I unboxed base game and leaders and lore pack first and just played with that for a bit to get a hold of it. Then I opened the Campaign box and was like: Well everything is organizing in here now cause it's brilliant storage. lol. I think I'll keep the base game box for travel purposes since I doubt I'll play much of the campaign on a trip. But maybe I will? lol I don't know. I didn't like how the fate pieces organized into the dividers so I organized my four card wells into the following: Top left: Act 1 cards, Top Right: Act 2 & 3 cards, Bottom Left: Action and Court Decks, Starting cards and Scrap, Bottom Right: All the Fate tokens. We'll see how well that system works in the future but for right now that's how might work.
Glad I'm not the only one who didn't realize the big box had organizers 😆
His 5 published games could very easily be my top 5 games. Verdict is still out for me on spectral but the 3 games of it I’ve played have been awesome. I’m surprised you haven’t played Bear Raid! It is very up your alley I think
@@kroomiester I'm super curious to try this once since its a different vein than his others
Ha - nice Oath shirt!
Also, I'd love to see you, Guerric, and friends stream a campaign game. 🙏
Oooh yes!!!
Nice unboxing!
what happen which tournament root 2024?
Life got a bit busy this year, the tournament takes up a lot of time and we just didnt have it 😅
marvelous game, entertainingly unboxed. Thanks, Lily!
thank you so much!!
Trains in spaaaaace! In space, no one can hear you “choo choo”.
Greetings from Austria. A year late but watching😂😂
Hello from Russia!
Lord of the Hundreds came in dead last because everybody gangs up on him, and because his scoring model is so simplistic and easy to predict that it makes it easier for other players to defeat him if they form an alliance. All you need is a unified front line to deny his advancements. The fact that everyone's afraid of his mob tokens' fire 🔥 spreading to their clearing randomly (even if he didn't want it to spread there) makes POLITICING with the Lord of the Hundreds impossible. So they'd rather keep you far, far away from their bases rather than ally with you, and risk the mob token unintentionally spreading to their vital infrastructure. As the The Art Of War states: Appear strong when you are weak. Appear weak when you are strong." The fact that they can never [voluntarily] appear weak is their greatest weakness.
Where can I get them from
I think the game is available at Target or on Amazon
I don't know how you gathered these stats but if you somehow were able to track final scores for each game (or even round by round scores (THATS A LOT OF DATA)) that would be super interesting to see! Great video!
I did track the final scores and did a break down here: makecraftgame.com/2023/09/01/2023-rootcon-tournament/ If you want to see scores round by round, I tracked that for the winter tournament (since all of those games were recorded). Check out each round for the data, I couldn't keep it all in once place but this links to all rounds: makecraftgame.com/2022/12/06/2023-root-winter-tournament/

Blaming failures of the crew on the captain is a great idea to ease struggling players into the game. Stealing that for sure! Great list too!
Glad you liked it! Blaming the captain was really nice because it made the game feel more silly and less stressful
Really cool list! This year I’m hoping to log my plays, but I said that last year and only managed to do it for half of January 😂
I'm always on stealth mode when I track so people rarely realize I'm doing it
Lily! How long are you going to make me wait for your review?
I'm working on it! My life was just thrown into a hurricane this year!
Wish these newest factions were on root digital
Will these tournament balance changes ever come to root digital?
Let's go Eyrie, fav faction is bae
I think a planned turmoil strategy would have to involved charismatic + holding onto your bird cards. Put all suited in for 3-ish rounds, end of round 3-4 turmoil yourself on build and lose two points! Then utilize bird cards you’ve ideally built up and your plethora of warriors on the board to make a powerful steady eyrie.
Loved this video! Would love to see analysis like this of other games too, mostly because I’ve not been playing as much root recently. 1830 would be awesome to see, but there are no structured tournaments at the moment as far as I can tell. Loads of data with .games, but a lot of them could have wildcards that might not be the best examples of play
I would love to that! I just don't keep stats tracking on other games but I will have to going forward O.o
Vp’s?? Euro in train’s clothing!
Thanks for these!!
After seeing these stats, I'm real curious to see how the faction winrates may have changed between rounds. It was my (semi-serious) impression that, while everyone at the con was good at the game, those who progressed furthest were the people with that barbarian lust for blood and victory points.
I can get that to you
What vagabonds were chosen that won?
Unfortunately, we did not track Vagabonds that were played but I know of at least one win with the Ranger.
trains! =D
Games! Trainish games! 🎉
I don't think there are not enought games to think that EYRIE and Lizards are now too strongs. Still, I think Otters might need a small buff to face games were none wants to deal with them.
The lizards strength is their sanctification ability and their ability to recruit anywhere on the board. It makes them unpredictable. You can cause turmoil in birds, have them take out your base and build new bases on he other side of the board in the marquise's area, and start scoring hard from a position of safety
@@dab0331 it's true that sanctification it's quite powerfull against birds. But it's also powerfull against most of the factions. WA, Duchy.... I think root needs one more balance change aiming for otters. Besides I would like to see and advance setup thinking on 3 and 5 players games. It would be fantastic!
@@kaworusergio What they need for Otters is CORPORATISM. They need the ability to negotiate better by giving one faction a lower price for a certain service than others. It's a house rule I came up with, which I want to start implementing. You take the faction tokens the Vagabond uses (I never like games with Vagabonds; not a fan of them its not at least 5 players) and place them on your price board, using them to indicate what the special corporate price is for a faction you want to ally with, while using the blue beads to indicate everyone else's prices. You even have the ability to temporarily (and strategically) lower your prices below your corporate favorite's rate, you just can never charge him higher than others. Example: you give the Eyrie a special discount on riverboats for the price of 2 while everyone else gets charged 4. The Eyrie get too strong, so you intend to help the Marquise by lowering the generic market rate to 1 in order to entice them. Thus angering the birds and helping the cats. The only catch is that you cannot charge the birds more than 1 since the generic price is lower than his corporate rate of 2. You both then have to decide whether or not you drop his corporate price to 1 and raise again the generic price OR you cut off the relationship entirely and you now side with the cats and give them the corporate discount instead. That's really how the East India Company of England used corporatism to divide and conquer India by aiding and pitting kingdoms against one another and then betraying one at a strategic time.
These are the kinds of nerdy stat videos I can get behind. 👏
Thanks for the stats, Lily! Also amazing t-shirt!
Bird nerf when!?
Just focus on them
Yay! Stats!
11:05 Purposefully tanking your game against the lizards to increase their ranking.... a true devotee to the cult of the lizard cult!
Top Half Lizards!!!! POG Edit: TOP 3 LIZARDS?!?!?
Wow, I was wondering why the numbers were so low and then I saw number 1.😆
