    First off, your videos are fantastic. I can't wait to see you come out with Yzma, Ratigan, Hades, Evil Queen, and Dr. Facilier over the next few months!
    Quick question about your description of how to win the game. You say that if the strength of all your wickets is higher than or equal to the cost of the 5 cards, you win the game. However, the 'Take the Shot' card says: 'If the total Cost is less than the total Strength of all your Wickets, you make the shot and win the game.' I take this to mean that if the Strength and Cost are equal, you do not make the shot. I feel like it would say 'less than or equal' to as the proviso on the card if you were to win the game when they are the same. Do you concur?
    Cheers!

      @@LordoftheBoard Absolutely! I really appreciate all the work it must take to put these videos together!
      I'm definitely interested to see your Yzma video. I generally find her to be a little too easy to win with, so I'm wondering if somehow I'm missing something with how to play her, or how to play against her. I'm also very interested in some Ratigan and Dr. Facilier videos as I feel like those two require and could benefit from some more in-depth tactical analysis!
      Thanks again!

    Good tip about very merry unbirthday! I usually struggle to know which cards to hold and which ones to just play. The queen of hearts seems like a reckless play style. I like that you can talk out a strategy because she’s less long game and those are hard for me to play.

    • @LordoftheBoard
      @LordoftheBoard  5 років тому +1

      SparkletheBunny for the most part. If I don’t mention a card it’s a situational piece and you’ll want to just discard it! But very merry unbirthday is tricky cause it rewards you for waiting to have a lot of allies. But I say Better to just play and cycle through the hand! Thanks for watching and the analysis!

    Actually, my one major problem with card concept is with Queen if Hearts: The White Rabbit should be an ALLY. He's in her court, he's a loyal servant. Dee and Dum are neutral like Hatter and Hare and the others, so if you needed an extra Hero they should have been it, not White Rabbit.
    Also it keeps bugging me that you keep calling Queen of Hearts "The Red Queen" (there are adaptations where that is a correct title for her, but this isn't one). But I still love these guides and you're giving such good info.

      I will say that I was originally confused about why the tweedles were allies, but after some time, I came to think that it made more sense for them to be allies than heroes. I watched the movie recently and they, for whatever reason, seemed a little bit antagonistic towards Alice when they got the idea to tell her the story of the walrus and the carpenter. Of course, the whole movie is pretty much an acid trip, so who knows?

    Beware the ultimate combo that would be used against you QOH users--Alice plus Momeraths. With Alice on the board, you can no longer move Allies or Items. The only way QOH can do so is her Move an Item/Ally Action. When the Momeraths are then used after that while Alice is still in play, you'll feel as if you're on trial and the QOH is presiding over your fate.
    Imagine all 4 wickets lined up, one in each location when this happens. Your opponent moves your lovely wicket from The Courtyard all the way to the White Rabbit's House. Talk about anguish.You have 4 wickets and cannot move any of them. Having the King and some spears on the Tweedles can help prevent this fatality, but please don't get caught in this trap. Trust, it won't be a royal time

  • @gvsuchris
    @gvsuchris 4 роки тому +2

    This is a great video series! We love this game in our household and QoH is my go-to when playing just from the original set/I want a breezy game.
    The only thing I would add though are about spears. I know you mention adding them to the Tweedles, but I really think attaching them to the card guards really secures your ability to use only one Take the Shot to win. That's maybe my biggest strategy tip with her personally.

    • @LordoftheBoard
      @LordoftheBoard  4 роки тому +4

      Hey! Yes sir. Remember she is a very quick villain to win with. But only if her boards open. Fate early, often, and strategically. Cover up the locations with activate actions first to slow them down. Hedgemaze you want to cover as early as possible.
      Best fate cards against her are Cheshire Cat, Alice, March Hare, and Mad Hatter. March hare and mad hatter are best if the other is already in play.

  • @werothegreat
    @werothegreat 5 років тому +2

    I think you're underselling the need to Fate opponents. Yeah, the Hedge Maze is really nice, but if you're never visiting Tulgey Wood or White Rabbit's House, then your opponent can just do whatever they want. You really need to swing by a Fate location to keep them in check.

    Hi, I would like to ask you a question regarding the Cheshire Cat card. On the card it says that when the cat is played two guard cards will be turned from wickets back into guards and if you defeat him you can turn two guards into wickets. The question is once the cat is in play and the opponent turns two of your card guards back into guards can you convert them back to wickets by paying and activating their ability or you have to defeat him first?

    I feel like Queen Of Hearts needs a a redo… I genuinely can’t think of an easier character, at least in the base pack. She has a very weak fate deck which don’t help to stop her once she is winning. It’s also a very easy goal. The Hero cards need to be way better against her. It’s so bad that we’ve actually banned her from our group because she is so unbalanced. I don’t know if I’m playing against her wrong but I feel like she’s really unbalanced

    • @LordoftheBoard
      @LordoftheBoard  3 роки тому

    Great job as always man! I started playing Villainous only recently, find it a lot of fun, but I would like to get an opinion from more experienced players.... Do you think the different villains are balanced enough? I won one with the Queen and one with prince John, then played with Ursula and Maleficent and lost. Especially with Ursula I was Vs Jafar and at the end of the game (maybe because we were playing in 3 and one guy left in the middle and we didn't reset the game) I was overwhelmed with heroes on the board, could move only in 3 locations and my opponent was continuously fishing for Ariel every time I defeated her...

    • @LordoftheBoard
      @LordoftheBoard  4 роки тому +1

      So i think like any Assymetric game there isnt any definitive balance. What i will say to that is that some characters are easier to pick up than others. Ursula is one of the more tough villains to play. QOH is concidered to be one of the easiest to win with. But it all depends on the skill of your opponents too. My wife beats me with Ursula. But i struggle winning with Ursula against her. :)

    • @LordoftheBoard
      @LordoftheBoard  4 роки тому

      Yes! So when card guards become wickets the one thing that has changed is name and direction of the card. But in all cases it’s treated the same as before. It’s still an ally that can be removed :)

    Hey Sam! I am currently playing as the Queen of Hearts, and had a question: when you play the Stopwatch card, it has the Activation symbol, and says to gain 1 Power for each Wicket in your Realm. Since I played the Stopwatch card, do I get to do what the card says, or do I have to wait till I move to a location that has the Activate action? (I'm guessing the latter and have to wait till I move to that location).

    While every other villain wants to win their game by murder, deceptionand various other heinous acts, the Queen of Hearts wants to play a game of croquet. It's hilarious, especially since I expected her goal to be beheading poor Alice. (Humour me, havn't played the games.)
    Makes me wonder if the Queen her is more a victim of circumstances, instead of being the villain here. Bad temper and violent moodswings not withstanding, of course.
    Also, I'm surprised. There's no card based on the King of Hearts either as ally or benefitial effect? Considering he supports his wife's demand to behead everyone in the animated canon, that is weird.
