This is the worst strategy in the game.
You otter not do what I did, playing with forces well beyond my ken.
Deep in the fetid crucible of deliberate strategic degeneracy lies the spark of genuine innovations. One can never plumb these depths and emerge unscathed.
Anyways, here's a game of Root.

    I won a Corvid game against the Duchy and Keepers. I flipped to 22 on my second to last turn. The following turn, I flipped to 31 and won. I think it was because the Keepers were too busy recovering from my bomb the turn before, and the Duchy was too busy stoping to Keepers from winning(they were at 25 with a 2 and a 3 relic token near a waystation). Did I only win because my opponents were too dumb to get rid of the three face up plots I’d had the turn before?

      A little bit, maybe. Moreso, you managed to set up at a time when they had zero bandwidth available to police you, so I'd say you still earned that one.

    These guides are perfect. Humorous and educational. I would just add that Propaganda Bureau is the Riverfolk’s best craftable. It solves their number one weakness which is the most expensive recruit in the game. It turns a commitment into a recruit action that also kills an opponent warrior, softening up cardboard. Just make sure you have Saboteur to protect your Propaganda Bureau investment.

    My second ever otter game I was gifted 9 funds from lizards, 6 from cats and 4 from birds in the same turn, with that I was able to jump from middle of the pack to 27 points with a coin in my hand that the remaining players had to prisoner dilemma buy from my hand at 4, needless to say they did not avert my victory

    Very late to the party but with what I'd call the "sawmill flood" build order you showed around 15:05, you only get 20 points, and you clearly can't be crafting cards since you only play your first workshop on turn 5, do you get the last 10 points only by attacking the rest of the table ?

    • @Nevakanezah_

      You get the other 10vp by rebuilding the sawmills and recruiters that inevitably get destroyed over the course of an average game.

    Is this really patched though? I finished the game two weeks ago (btw it is fantastic) and my build ended up being Rattle'em'off + draw whole deck t1. Once you have 19 cards out of 20 in hand, you can just spam Baptiste's +1 patience card at no cost and therefore gain infinite patience.

    • @Nevakanezah_
      @Nevakanezah_ 21 день тому

      This specific exploit is definitely patched. They nerfed Sid's cards, and specifically prevented them from reducing cost below 0. As for whether you can still achieve the same effect in other ways... Maybe?
