During the end game with pete and red with red just taking forever I was hoping the Green Bot would just wake up and kill everyone
Green had more troops towards the end and right when red was nearly done with blue, Green could have stream rolled most of the map and honestly pulled out a victory.
Those bots are neutral they can't wake up 😂.
Pete - I started watching you to improve my Risk skills. Your unapologetic, respectful comments on other topics keep me engaged. The whole world would benefit from unapologetic, respectful conversations. I do not always agree with you but I find I always respect your perspective. Peace man!
It's so hard to speak honestly in the world. I really wonder why?
@@TheKillPeteStrategyI know, if only people did as your channel rules say everywhere and challenge the argument instead of the person. I remember being taught that while I was in school and has stuck with me to this day. Also great vid and cool channel.
@thekillpetestrategy
I assume most people can't handle an opinion that contradicts their own perspective. I don't want to say they can't handle the "truth", since that is indeed dependent on ones morale and inner value system, however, being told what others truly think of one could potentially fire all sets of emotions in them, and most of them never learned to handle their own emotions pretty well. They feel devastated, attacked, miserable, caught, insulted and that makes them angry and perhaps even resentful.
They, on the other hand, could also say "thank you for your opinion" and move on by evaluating if the critique was legitimate or not. That would open the possibility to learn and eventually grow. Admitting own deficits by looking in that kind of mirrow is hard work and sometimes a tough pill to swallow. But necessary.
My two cents on that.
Love how you expressed the importance of human interaction, connection making ect. Spot on brother
Yellow made a big mistake by not taking Alberta when they had the chance. The game could've played out quite differently if they had.
Alberta the only part of canada that matters
Red's persistence to take over Asia paid off. He must have sensed that Cold War brewing between you and Yellow, and your and your itch to attack.
Intuition
great video - i appreciate the "losing" games as much as the wining games :)
this game perfectly demonstrates three things:
1. player skill doesn't necessarily equate to victory
2. anyone can lose to lower ranked players EVEN when they aren't collaborating (as was the case here) (imagine when players do collab how much at a disadvantage you are)
3. even placing second you would have lost rank points - and this is why the ranking system needs adjustment
4. (bonus) great players, such as yourself, still retain their cool as much as it must be unfairly frustrating - something i personally need to work on :)
thanks for the content pete!
Oh yeah man I lose a lot. The hope is that we learn something along the way.
With that green five I would have rolled it earlier and just said to myself what a great man has said many times. "Better lucky than good" but this is why I'm not a GM and you are 😂😂
Yolo strat
That intro never gets old! Another great one Pete!
Cheers Loe!
That definition of the social interaction of cardboard MTG was well stated and articulate. I as well love the social interaction of Commander. I choose commanders that bring some sort of politics into the game. My favorite commander is Edric, Spymaster of Trest. As it encourages people to literally do the same thing as in Risk, take cards from each other.
I play casual games of mtg with 3-6 players and we play solo and teams. I agree. The strategy of recognizing other decks mechanics, state of the battlefield and life all play into the politics of mtg similar to risk. Makes the game much more interesting and also makes us into better players.
Yeah. The apparent acceptance of cedh into edh is the worst mistake they could have made for the format. Literally every other magic format is competitive.
Doing so in edh misses the point. The political psychological game is what makes it one of the best games ever.
@@TheKillPeteStrategy I feel there is a place for cedh alongside commander. There is always the low to the ground style that just tempos out every game(usually decided by drawing that Sol Ring). You know the decks that don't have multiplayer elements to it, just built for the 1vs1. However, I feel the majority of multiplayer Commander games are still just battlecruiser magic. Casting those cards that just sit in a binder for years/decades. Almost every group I play with has their own ban list. If someone tried to bust out their cedh deck at our table, they would be hated out of the game. Not all groups are like that though, but I play with friends and usually not at a local game store. My fastest decks are only played when the power level of my friends deck require it.
Classic fixed is such a mind game. It’s a great test of your mental gymnastics and self restraint. I’ve grown to love it, tbh! I just played a game using RiskFil’s game planning that somehow got me first after getting suicided into. (This is Chad Carter btw, I switched my name for UA-cam channel purposes)
I like it a lot more now than I used to
That was fun watching Risk online. It was my first strategy game as a kid--I really liked those marathon games with my childhood friends. Good stuff.
Hey Pete, I bought risk a week or two ago and just wanted to let you know I've been loving your videos! They've taught me so much and and really helped me excel within my gameplay. Keep up the great work and vids!
Let's go!
So glad you're enjoying the game Cameron
I had a similar game recently with beginners unable to see the advantage of trust alliances and constantly breaking for no reason, negative reason infact ... some of the best games happen, I found though, when you resign yourself to losing through lack of better options and make a risky kill, the other players don't take their chance when you're weak and you go on to win... you can't really plan that kind of game, but when they happen they're a lot of fun.
Yeah I've won a few of those I think.
I just started to watch you a few weeks ago, but I love that you also play MTG! It's been one of my favorite games since I started at the beginning of Covid, and I've gotten super into it.
31:21 I never thought about the human interaction aspect like that. Well said, brother.
This is the value of perspective I have I suppose from living a while and seeing things slowly change.
Had a game today where I was in SA, with a stack in Asia for cards. Early in the game the Red Australian player removed my Asia position completely (half of my troop total!) so I was forced to card skip the entire game. Thankfully I got the kill on Red in the end and took second
👍👍👍
Just ended my 10 game skid by beating 3 beginners and an intermediate. But as they say in hockey, "a garbage goal is still a goal." Hopefully I can do better against better players.
I'll take the wins as they come.
LED light strips for each shelf would be fire. Specifically, 12V WS2811 strips with a meanwell power supply and QuinLED Dig Quad controller. Allows for individually addressable RGB. Must know/learn how to solder. Use solder sleeves where you can.
I’ve noticed that my games are always filled up with new players since the update and oh boy, do they love the Australia position lol
Haha it was like that before.
Thanks for the share, its nice to see other people play pnce in ahwile
Man you really did it. The asian turtle is very proud. What a legend
🐢🐢🐢 he won too
I had a tough match the other day, S.A. was blocked off from N.A. due to the frozen wastes, and Africa could only be gotten into through Europe. But i started in S.A. and for the first 4 rounds every time I took it one of the players who I kicked out kept whiffing his biggest stack just so I couldn't hold the continent. Eventually he got beaten back by others and I got to hold 2 continents for a few turns. After that though the same player broke my line again and I decided to trade places with him, I took his continents and he took mine. If he hadn't done that I never would have gotten enough troops to win, which I eventually did. Word to the wise, don't let grudges hide your hand in this game, you'll cause your own downfall.
14:00 I tried coming up with a game mode like true random progressive where orange’s play makes sense but not even that works because he is all in one spot
Haha
Such a class act. Videos are educational and enjoyable to watch.
🙏🙏🙏
I don't know why I am watching Risk, but I am sure Pete is the main reason. Likeable guy and good vibes
Trying to put out the best vibes I can
Fixed Friday is the most enjoyable game mode that Pete stream
🙏🙏🙏
I literally watched like 70% of the vid before i realized I watched this on stream. I blame you…
That's fair.
😂😂😂 your reaction to orange botting out is priceless 😂😂😂
It's so pathetic to reward a single break by quitting.
Today Yellow, Red, Orange and Green are 1-Circle, 2-Triangle, 4-Hexagon, 6-Cloud.
Colourblind mode made this watchable 😂
Just wish they'd put the correlating symbol with the character profiles...
So I just watched 1 hour to hype myself up and went on to win an intense capital conquest 👑
Well done!
Beating him cos the game is broken? I didn't understand your explanation tbh
This game is very simple once you get it but just because it is simple doesn’t mean the mind games arnt complex.
That's it right there. Once we understand the strategies; your opponents psychology is the real game
You look and sound so good in this video. Keep up the good work dude!!
🙏🙏🙏
Man, I like the way you think about life and whats important.. subscribed 👍
What. Is. Up. Risk. Taakkeeeeerrrrsss!
Audio is so much better, good stuff! Lot more enjoyable, can hear you better and not the background stuff.
eyy
Poor asia, always taking a beating. Time to have pete support asia to strike back.
There may be a fixed Friday where I take Asia but it's definitely rare.
Absolutely right about not wanting to wear a mask because you lose the connection of expression when you and someone else wears a mask. I know this is a months old video but all the research now shows how badly it screwed up young kids because they couldn't interact with other kids in the way you described
One of the big lessons I've learned in my life is the importance of connecting with my friends and family. It's the most important thing I can be doing
Well family yes, friends ehh
Been gone for a while. Crazy you're at 60k now. I'm happy to see you aren't trying to put the strain on yourself of replying to every comment anymore XD
Haha it's a blessing 🙏
I like talking to people.
Love love love fixed Friday
❤️❤️❤️
Just wanted to throw it out here that the audio sounds MUCH better in this video compared to the last one I commented on. Granted I didn't have earbuds in while listening so that may have some affect on my experience this time around but it doesn't sound like you're peaking in regards to your gain and your B's/P's aren't popping when you're close to the mic.
Excellent.
❤❤
"at least I get third"
my sarcastic ass: hmm yes third of 3 nice 🤣
Hey!
I love you man! I also appreciate how you read every comment, shows you care about the community!❤
Not saying it would have worked, however I'd have allowed yellow to hold Europe and Africa, Red to hold Aus and Asia for a turn or two and see if they attack each other, my (maybe incorrect and we will never know) assumption is that they would have focused on each other. Love me a Fixed Friday! GG's.
Yeah I wasn't feeling it. Then I get third instead of second.
Fixed Friday is bomb AF 🔥
💣💣💣
@@TheKillPeteStrategy also some very touching and thought provoking subject matter in this one. I always have to pause your videos at least twice before I finish them. Once to reflect and once to comment then go play a game myself lol.
Great stuff
It baffles me that they don't have an option to simply add a QUESTION MARK to the "Attack {Player}" Emote...
An obvious beginner, Red prioritized breaking your positions over stabilizing their own.
Very nice mask (or no mask) description you made in there. Very balanced in meaning and presentation. Also, wanna play MTG Arena? A little late but always down.
I feel like a batter way to defend Asia (and Oceania) than at 25:15 is to deny Europe on top of that so it’s the same-point hold as North America or Both Americas, at the expense of any players getting this you don’t have to guard an extra point to hold Asia. Red could have done better because of that, as no one is going for europe by the looks of things, I don’t really play risk so maybe I’m wrong.
In heinsight, slamming red when they had 20 troops and just got their bonus could be argued as to be the correct play but idk if that changes the outcome
Yeah for sure!
If you love Game of Thrones, Pete -- CK2 has the best mod for it.
Getting red and yellow to fight was definitely a good strategy. Too bad they only attacked the aggressive player.
Downloaded this recently. I love risk. Real life dice love me I’m risk. Online dice, not so much. 😂
Play long enough and you'll get all your luck back.
The psychology is where you win or loose.
100%
Couldn’t agree more with you on mask opinion
Well if anyone had any doubts that Red was a new player it became obvious in a 1vs1. I wonder how long will it take him to learn how to properly wrap up the 1vs1 with huge advantage.
Also no communication :D. Oh and the confirmation at the end also :D.
The 1vs1vs1 was crazy though with shifting positions all the time. No one wanted to take 2nd then the yellow decided to take the 3rd? :D.
Sooooo.. how do you break stalemates in a 3 player situation? Do you just patiently wait until somebody loses it and grabs the 2nd while you hope you are not the one being eaten?
I guess I should watch one of those videos i did not watch yet..
Cheers!
You need to position yourself in the place where hopefully the other two people hit eachother.
@@TheKillPeteStrategy Thnx! :).
Pete i’m never gonna say this enough… you hair and beard is groomed so perfectly in each video. I’m still searching for a video of you lacking on hair grooming, and I find none😂
Haha thanks Dany.
It wasn't always this way, but I've figured out a look that I'm happy with and is easy to maintain.
aaaaaaaaa fun close game!
kinda wish you gave red asia and yellow sa and africa and let them fight while poking green to look meek or back to europe. always a tough call, they were decent players. ggwp
not breaking people unless you must is >usually< a good vibe to hold in fixed imo
I played MTG for a while, but the avid chess player in me quickly got sick of the randomness. Another issue is the pay-to-win nature of the game. Warhammer is a bit the range as you're required to have the actual model, giving the highest spender an edge.
I guess I'm lucky enough with magic that I got into the game when it was new so the cost barrier to entry wasn't insanely massive like it is now. It's still very expensive.
@@TheKillPeteStrategy to be fair, it isn't WotC that jacks up the price like Games Workshop. The thing I like about chess is that I can bring my hand carved ebony black pieces and lose to the guy with the cheap plastic pieces. I can't beat a guy with a $1,000 deck with a starter set.
So I really don’t understand how intermediates can be so stubborn. You move through 2 ranks to get intermediate and should be getting tons of experience in the meantime but from experience I can tell having a intermediate lobby is just the most frustrating thing on earth. Ally requests will be ignored across the board and these guys literally start beef on all fronts and call it a day. How?
I think part of getting past that intermediate level is giving up on being stubborn somewhat
Wait until this guys plays civ 😭
GGs Pete! Unfortunate you got third, better luck next time!
👍
Good game. I fidn't know green was a bot and I kept watching them stack each turn and wondering, at points, why they didnt make a play at all. Lol 😂
I'm trying to play this game w/ diplomacy like you do, Pete. It just never seems to work out. Maybe its because I'm still ranked lower and playing against others the same way?
Alliances?
@@TheKillPeteStrategy First - Thank you for responding! I've been watching your videos and it renewed my love of Risk. Second, I prefer non-alliance games, but you seem to be able to form "informal" alliances w/ neighbors w/ good will gestures and emotes. It just never seems to work for me.
hi Pete love the fixed friday posts, i have a question about fixd classic what to do in stale mate? i have got stuck in a few recently and end up 3 rd or 2nd any advice would be most appreciated.
I have a lot of classic fixed games up now in my playlist. They will go over all sorts of scenarios in this regard.
@@TheKillPeteStrategy Thanks for the reply, watched nearly all ur vids i will go back and check them out again. Oh and thanks Pete, i found u because my mate just used to anialate me at this game but on a old playstaion version after watching a cpl of ur vids.... well it was lesson time for him 🤣🤣🤣 and i now have this version and play everyday
Have you ever played the game diplomacy from you discussion of why you enjoy risk I think you would greatly enjoy diplomacy
Yeah I think I would too
Can someone explain why red didn’t immediately take Pete out after he killed yellow? Red had way more troops and the bot is inactive. Why keep going back and forth?
Just turned of camera animation and it’s twice as fast on my phone thank you
Youre welcome!
Do you intentionally attack territories slowly sometimes because i know you can attack a lot faster if so why ?
I don't want to spoil the surprise to my opponents until it's too late.
I wish I knew about the settings thing to attack faster. I've lost several games simply because I couldn't attack as fast as my opponent
Click enter enter. Turn off camera animations in settings.
@@TheKillPeteStrategy helped a bunch already. Thanks
Saludos desde México, me gustan mucho tus videos 🤝🏼🇲🇽
YESSSS GET INTO SC2
Only playing eve online for a year isn't enough to learn the game that well and be good
For sure. It was long enough to know that it wasn't for me
Learning alot from your gameplay. My record is 30 wins and 54 losses all on classic 6 man fixed. But I'm at the point in the game where I am at expert level and I keep getting matched up with new players wich is frustrating. I am only playing classic 6 man games at the moment on classic and I keep getting bad games. People botting out and I litterally just finished a game where all 5 players went for Australia and I cleaned up the win and it just isnt fun, their is no grind, but their are other games when people will let someone take a +5 and a +2 territory but for no reason hit me. Do you have any ideas for me to get into games with players who have more skill ? And is it a possibility for you to run a game with your viewers one day because I would love to get in on a UA-cam viewer matchplay with kill-pete 🙂
I do viewer games on Twitch.
You can set the filter in game to expert +
At 44:44 I couldn’t help but watch the argument over Drew’s *third leg* go over in the chat…. It was funny, but kinda weird…
the biggest mistake i saw was expecting another player to deny red Asia.
👍
Do you ever play zombie mode or a game called world empire. It's very similar to this. I used to own world empire 3 on floppy disk when I was a kid. Very fun
Greek yoghurt with honey for me 👍🏻
I'm interested...
I think masks should only be mandatory in hospital settings+large crowds since it is only these 2places that really causes spread of infections. But, at schools+universities, I feel is excessive. Maybe if the teacher is old and is scared of her well-being then she could "force us" to wear masks for her protection. It would be a mutual benefit since if the doctor remains non-infected because of our masks then we would be learning from that teacher.
I think those who are at risk should bear the responsibility to protect themselves and everyone else should be free to weigh the costs vs the benefits for themselves. Like a free responsible society would behave.
at 18:00 how would orange moving to let your 3 out help? You would have to move through 2 territories and then the 3 would just be spread over 3 territories instead of grouped into 1
Earlier in the game
41:50 😂😂😂😂
I would prefer the suspense: meaning no hints of almost final result in title or in thumbnail. Thanks.
When you said it was a "noobish" move to break you in Africa towards the end, I disagree. That was retaliation for the two times you broke him, and with the soft guard it cost him literally nothing to hit you.
Yeah that makes sense I was trying to keep him small
@@TheKillPeteStrategy you definitely did the right thing, but yellow refusing to help in any meaningful way sealed both of your fates.
You potentially could've left red alone once you repositioned yourself and out flanked yellow, but in the end the outcome is probably the same, so 🤷♂️
I expected a game where you won holding Asia from the getgo... Is that even possible?
It's super rare. Champ has a video with the Asian turtle strategy but it really depends on the spawn you get too.
I’ve never really played the F1 games… worth getting? I get free access to 21 and 22 with my PSN account, should I just jump in one of those?
F1?
@@TheKillPeteStrategy lol sorry, my UA-cam app was connected to the tv and put this comment on the wrong video 😂
Pete, when you say balanced blitz is broken in relation to the slider, what exactly do you mean? How is it broken?
The way BB rounds numbers can lead to unreasonable losses when large stacks hit small ones. Top players dial the slider down to the minimum 100% roll to mitigate lossess. I don't feel that should be the players responsibility but rather something that can be addressed with a design solution.
@@TheKillPeteStrategy I didn't know this, thanks for explaining!
@TheKillPeteStratso thats why i kept losing 9 against a 2
Oh my lord I go to comment and when I come back you've already taken Europe while still having africa lol
Im a greedy fellow
hi pete! why do you not defend all entry points of a continent? I get that if an opponent enters the continent you can retaliate, but then you both lose. Does this not put you in a position to lose due to an opponent's lack of skill?
Think about it this way if you defend your bonus with threats and you get broken you lose the potential additional troops but you don't lose a guard stack. If you defend your bonus with guard stacks you lose both.
So you mentioned cards when discussing the mask thing! And I very much share your view on the emotional aspect of covering up your face. I play poker, so I guess I was curious if you played poker. Or just referring to cards games in general or the social aspect of cards in general? Or both? Haha
I played magic as my main hobby from 2011~ until covid. Being unable to continue with something that I spent so much of my life working on was very challenging emotionally.
@@TheKillPeteStrategy ah...yes. I played when I was way younger, never got serious with it. But still loved the game. Don't play at all these days. I do recall you talking about Magic:The Gatering now that you say it. Awesome!
Ahah, I see the effect of neutral bots comes into play once more.
Mic sounds much better to ears man!
I’m surprised you didn’t kill magenta when they had 12 troops and 4 cards!
I thought it was better to use my set to keep a good guard in Africa
After rewatching I noticed it was actually 15 troops at the start of your turn and you wouldn’t have been able to set after the kill so definitely makes more sense.
I have no clue how to play this game. Ive inly won once. What is the strategy? I usually just try to get an area and keep the boarder built up. And keep attacking 1 country a turn to get a card
I'm pretty new and trying to learn to play the game, so I'm asking this as a 100% trying to understand type of situation... I understand the concept of leaving a route for troops to get out. but at 17:40 what does Pete mean by getting his 3 out? it looks to me like if they merged those two 4 stacks he would only be able to kill 2 countries with 1 and leave nothing to move out. Can somebody please help explain
So orange is trying to take Europe and I'm trying to take Africa if they want to take Europe they have to hit a three if they let my three out it's easier for both of us
I used to play Eve online. I’m stilled subbed actually 😂 total Eve and Risk nerd here. Sly Deathwalker is my Eve character. #Bestshipisfriendship
Always be skilling.
Hi Pete, I'm new to your channel, so catching up with some of your old vids. You should have blocked and locked red, by holding Ukraine and middle east, instead of invade through Alaska. Just my thoughts to prevent retaliation and troop bonus loss by red busting into Europe.
Stelleris is up your ally but some games can be 40+ hours
Can you take breaks?
@@TheKillPeteStrategy yes it has a pause option
how do i attack fast on mobile? like nearing your speed instead of wasting 1s/atak
Turn off camera animations in settings. Click enter enter.
How is corn not your first guess for Iowa crops. The US grows an absolutely insane amount of corn. And Iowa grow more than any other state. Look up the "corn belt".
How did I not know this specific fact? How is it even possible?
@@TheKillPeteStrategy Notice no question mark, it was rhetorical. Just a sarcastically offensive comment in good faith.
