I've been watching you since I bought root. And I love your content! I'm so surprised and glad you love musical too! I had the biggest smile when you sing "Maria". great voice.
That's one of the drawbacks of an open hand. You can't stop others from walking into the shop and grabbing a card you would prefer to keep. At most you can hike up the price to make it costly for them. I like getting paid though, and people pay when you got good cards and services to sell. The Riverfolk are a big talking faction, you got to sell your stuff on people. Something you can't really do with the chat system here.
@@SusCalvin I learned to be opportunistic yesterday in my RF game. It was lizard, otter,VB & cats and the cat player immediately started complaining about him being the only player with buildings and was worried about sanctification from lizards. So I offered to help manage the outcast suit by milling the deck. After fulfilling my obligations to cats (2 turns, 2 card purchases for 3) I offered on the next turn to craft a card that would turn outcast to hated for the lizards if they bought a card off of me the following turn for (2). The cats interjected and said they would buy for 3. Those were the only 3 sales I made the whole game (I won)
@@EpicEthra singing and watching! I was a theatre kid but never performed in a musical. Always wanted too tho. I was always told I had a nice voice. Thanks for staying around!!! :)
Hey man! Big fan of your Root strategies. One thing I always asked myself is How the Hell are you supposed to win against the Lizard Cult, using the Mole Duchy?
Maybe try a smol mole strategy? Essentially just don’t build buildings and just sway ministers that build up your action economy - brigadier and such. Then spend your turns recruiting 2 moles per turn. You can pick up points just destroying tokens and swaying. Near the end you can make some buildings and craft some final points to win if you need :)
Great question. I would say earlier in the game just to build trust with certain factions. If you get 2 sales then you have made profit. The most important thing is that if you set it at 2 you get 2 funds if you gained zero that round anyways. Which is why I never set to 1 - you just lose money.
@@LordoftheBoard Ahh better prices to build up a relationship but never going down to 1 makes sense. Thanks! Also, I like how you set your price for cards to 4 at the end of the game to protect a card. As another faction, is it ever a good idea to buy at 4 or should I treat it as the Otters essentially saying 'The shop is closed!' haha
How important are the trade posts? I see that the birds knock one out as soon as its built. What does the otters lose besides having to rebuild the thing? Is it worth keeping little garrisons of trade post guards around to deter people from rolling over defenceless trade posts?
@@LordoftheBoard What do you lose with them? I thought that was a way for others to get at your funds, if you were starting to build up a funds engine.
@@SusCalvin half your funds rounded up. But I never go for a funds strat. I just use all of them - mostly because this strategy you see here is more reliable. And a lot quicker. :)
@@LordoftheBoard Maybe it's easier for people to catch on and conspire against you when they can do table talk diplomacy. They can decide to have a massive boycott of otter products and services. Here people just bought cards unquestioningly. When you have people face to face you can be a more active salesotter and point out where a river ride could put them or learn which hotspots could use some otter mercs. You can negotiate costs, like how much they think a boat ride is worth.
Subscribed! Kudos to references to musicals. I sang Bring him Home and Empty Chairs.... in some concerts recently. Just getting into Root. Purchased all the content.
26:31 I'm not sure why are you thinking of stolen cards, for the second time. You're literally selling your hand for the price of 3 per card. The first time lizards bought a card, and this time it was Eyrie who bought the bird card.
Bruh you're doing my head in asking over and over "who's stealing my cards" when you're the riverfolk trader. People are buying your cards, that's what you do xD. And then you said its because your trading posts are being destroyed, but losing trading posts doesn't strip cards from your hand, just half your funds
I know the rules of the game. The stealing my cards statement was mostly to make people laugh while watching. Trust me I have like over 300 plays in of this game. I’m just having fun
@@LordoftheBoard okay fair enough if that’s what’s going on, just seemed like genuine confusion without the context of the twitch chat. Appreciate the video and the strat though, I’m new to ROOT but the river folk are my favourite faction. This strategy looks good and I’m keen to try it and hopefully improve my success rate with them :) Cheers for the reply
Bro you lost 2 or more cards from hand and keep saying "how did I lose these cards?" They keep buying the cards from you !?!?!? And then you said "eryie keeps buying from me" I'm just confused
Q: Which faction is best? Lizard Cult or Riverfolk Company?
Otters!
@@Jakatarn WRONG haha jk. Thanks for watching! :)
@@LordoftheBoard Thank you! Just got Root a few weeks ago, your videos helped a lot understanding it better.
Lizards are fun to play, hard to win with, I enjoyed getting rekt in this game!
@@mehdibous hey well played! And good to see you here 🔥 thanks for playing
I was the lizards in this game!! I got rekt but I enjoyed playing with lordoftheboard!! Thx for sharing this!!
It was great fun! Is it fun to watch yourself from the outside?
Really loving these root playthroughs, hope you will upload more of them to youtube! (I find the interface far better than twitch)
I want to release more! I really and to do live games! With the physical board and all
River blitzkrieg has been fun, just a mob of otters roaming the river and blowing up everything in a clearing is fun.
Haha big agree :)
I would love to see a lizard cult playthrough. It's hard for me to check out streams but will make the effort.
Hey! That’s what these videos are for! I’ll try to upload more. And I’m going to attempt to get a lizard game up soon! :)
@@LordoftheBoard still waiting on that lizard cult game!! Great content, thank you!
Ok, am I missing something? "Eyrie are buying form me again. Who stole my cards..." You are Riverfolk. The Eyrie literally bought that card, no?
Yes it was an expression. They just bought them.
Yay for more Lord of the Board content🙌🏻
Thank you! 🚀🚀🚀
I've been watching you since I bought root. And I love your content! I'm so surprised and glad you love musical too! I had the biggest smile when you sing "Maria". great voice.
Yay more Content👍
BTW your lost your coins, because the lizards bought them. That's what other Factions do
I lost my mind for a second I didn’t see the sale happen 😂 I ended up finding out which is good. Thank you!

Thanks for putting this on UA-cam!
You’re welcome :)
Great video. You have the BEST Root content! I would also love to see a Lizard Cult win playthrough.
Awh thank you :) I appreciate that so much!
omg! I got "Maria" in my head as well the last couple'o days
Not going, I’m
Way more excited for the duchy and corvid expansion whenever dire wolf adds them
Hope that you upload a lizard game as well. Obviously not the one where everyone left 😂
Haha no won’t be uploading that one... what a terrible game! I’ll be uploading a win :)
I was singing along with your West Side Story. I am also a huge musicals fan.
Yes I like musicals a bit too much
@@LordoftheBoard I just found your channel and now definitely want to stay. Do you act in them at all or just like singing/watching them?
@@EpicEthra singing and watching! I was a theatre kid but never performed in a musical. Always wanted too tho. I was always told I had a nice voice. Thanks for staying around!!! :)

@@LordoftheBoard Good tips! Will def try that.
It would be fun if you did a 3v1 clockwork game with your viewers!
THat would be very fun :)
@@LordoftheBoard If you do, count me in as a Eyrie Dynastie with Commander B)
1:16 lol i just watched westside story i love this version of maria.
What would the appropriate conditions be for you to reduce your Otter prices below 3 warriors? Loved the game!

Thanks for the video
Thinking about buying this but how does the expansion work? Is there a bundle for it all?
Buying on mobile
The expansion should only need to be bought 1 time if you use the same account on mobile and pc :)
Completely new here. Can any of the factions play 1v1? Or do you need to have some main staple factions?
Some factions can! mostly the factions with higher reach. Like Marquise, Duchy, and Eyrie. the new rats and badgers will be too!
"this is a sugar coated coin game"
:+1:
And I love it for that 😅😂
Anyone know about Root the musical he is talking about? I wanna listen!
You convinced me I really want to watch h your card video now!
I hope you enjoyed it!
This is Awesome 👌👏 great video
Thank you friend ❤️❤️
@@LordoftheBoard your welcome 😌
Please make more gameplay videos your videos are so fun
Thank you ! I have another dropping in the monday after this monday!
have you watched the whole playlist of my gameplays?
did they ever make any other skins besides the eyrie skin?
How could u craft the bag at around 14:00? Because you don’t have a post in a fox clear?
When you have a trade post - it doesn’t matter if it has been removed off the board.
How important are the trade posts? I see that the birds knock one out as soon as its built. What does the otters lose besides having to rebuild the thing?
Is it worth keeping little garrisons of trade post guards around to deter people from rolling over defenceless trade posts?
Not usually worth keeping guard of them. But you want to watch for Despot bird leader getting the double points.
@@LordoftheBoard What do you lose with them? I thought that was a way for others to get at your funds, if you were starting to build up a funds engine.
@@SusCalvin half your funds rounded up. But I never go for a funds strat. I just use all of them - mostly because this strategy you see here is more reliable. And a lot quicker. :)

Which movie is about cards and lore?
ua-cam.com/video/dLNFWygk2Cs/v-deo.html this is the video I was discussing :)
Subscribed! Kudos to references to musicals. I sang Bring him Home and Empty Chairs.... in some concerts recently.
Just getting into Root. Purchased all the content.
Let’s goooo! That’s rad 💯 thank you for subbing! Hope you enjoy the live playthrough coming soon :)
26:31 I'm not sure why are you thinking of stolen cards, for the second time. You're literally selling your hand for the price of 3 per card. The first time lizards bought a card, and this time it was Eyrie who bought the bird card.
Haha I’m just having fun :)
@@LordoftheBoard ah that's what went over my head :)
"Noodle Vegetable Salad"
Yes!
WHy is everyone buying your stuff! 3 warriors.... wth!
Otters ftw!!
i think the game bugged out here don't you need 2 bunny trading posts to craft that item? at minute 30:00
The trade posts don’t need to be on the board for you to use them. As long as they have been placed they can be used. :)
Are there any Root discord servers?
Yes! look up Woodland Warriors discord! Its now owned and run by Leder Games! join us :)
@@LordoftheBoard thanks, now I am in business too.
Try intro music on 2x speed
Why discard bird card on T1? Don’t you keep it to sell to Cats?
Didn’t want them to get their t1 opener and there was a lot of good crafts. So I chose those instead. I sell them a little later. 👏🏽
@@LordoftheBoard so AFTER turn 1... makes sense. Btw Lizards bought your coins, which I’m sure you know by now. :)
@@jeremybridges6015 I was sad my coins were taken! 🤪 thanks! I know I just completely missed it while playing.
Why have you stopped creating Root content? :) Come back to your roots asap
Video dropping today! Also join the discord :) I keep everyone posted actively on there! discord.gg/c5R95nKFWF

Also, I work in theatre and also love musicals so keep the musical content coming 😂 subscribed
Bro you lost 2 or more cards from hand and keep saying "how did I lose these cards?" They keep buying the cards from you !?!?!? And then you said "eryie keeps buying from me" I'm just confused
Haha I knew they were being bought. Its just me being goofy.

Haha I always got stream sniped lol
