if he had lost a brick instead he could have just: - 2 for 1 the wood for a wheat - build settlement on 3 for 1 - 3 for 1 brick twice (once for wood once for wheat) - build other settlement if he lost the sheep it would be the same just with a sheep instead of a wood on the second exchange crazy how many people like this comment without fact checking
Chopping wood or slaughtering sheep is a very effective way to play catan. There is a bit of a power trip that happens when you have a strong 2:1 port that is COOKING!
At 6:35 red commits a road and your 6 clay gets rolled on your turn. My thought is to trade your ore generously to blue for their clay. This gives you the opportunity to double road up to the 8 wheat with the added benefit of securing your wood port spot.
Great game! I was just looking for a catan video too! Could you try a C&K video for fun? No one is really making content for modes outside of the base game.
Is this game also available with cities & knights? I always felt the base game seems really basic when one experienced that expansion. Do you play that as well or do you stick to basic catan?
Why would blue point the first road at the 3:1 port on the 10 and not the 3:1 port on the 9/12? That's just dumb. Very unlikely to have competition for that 9/12 spot, and it's obviously superior.
I haven’t had the time to grind out 100-200 games to immediately run to the top. It takes time and I am trying to show as many games as I can through the levels. A new run needs time to build a bank of games. In the meantime, you can still appreciate the play optimization, commentary, and insights on how to play specific strategies. Eventually, I will have to throw some games away to show the higher level games. Be patient and enjoy the journey.
@@ordinarilyirresistible6907 how does it sound awful? I think it's decently balanced. It gives massive production so it's really strong but also very expensive to build. You also need to have built a settlement and a city first before being able to build it. So it's a late game option.
@@brosaus Basically impossible to build. Probably not balanced, as in it would suck because there's no reason to waste that many resources building that tall.
How do you get this version of Catan to play? I bought Catan Universe and the UI is so fucking bad, I was expecting this but it's a different version or something?
@@BlueSheep777 Thanks, I mistakenly downloaded and "bought" Catan Universe which scumbags people by buying the game as a microtransaction so you can't refund it. That had a terrible UI
I am trying to catch up on gameplays and build a backlog. Most of the people are 150-200 games in on the leaderboard and I have A LOT going on in my life right now. I am going to try my best to get the games in but it’s not an absolute priority for me to dominate the leaderboard season at this point. I want to focus on quality of gameplay, insights, and getting a content schedule that makes sense to make sure I can consistent deliver on this channel. We will also be experimenting as we grow!
@@dandydrew dandy, I encourage you to take a harder look at him through a more critical lens sometime. he is widely known to peddle misinformation and recycled pseudo-intellectualist takes that, though sometimes attractive at first glance, are pretty nonsensical upon closer inspection (e.g., the notion of "postmodern neo-marxism," which doesn't make an iota of sense). would be happy to talk about it in greater depth if you are interested
@@FS-qg3kuI don’t follow any one individual or ideology blindly. I do my best to look at the ideas presented and consider their individual merit and usefulness. Funny you mentioned the postmodern neo-marxism point, which was a highlight discussion in the Zizek and Peterson debate. Many don’t agree with Peterson from a ideological standpoint but there’s no denying his influence. At the end of the day, you take the good with the bad and build a life philosophy that resonates with your goals and values.
Wow those players were absolutely terrible. Robbing green so consistently, it's embarrassing! No communication the whole game until it's certainly over 😂 gg anyways
4th placements picks a most skill based picks in game...cuz be a 1st and 2nd there is no skill. 3rd is kinda a lil tricky sometimes but not so often but 4th pick...this is shows a REAL skill. most often i saw bad picks from players on 4th spot.
Not only is that false, it is the exact opposite of what is true: 4h is least skill while going first requires the most skill. When you go 4th, you need to see exactly zero moves ahead. You do not need to anticipate where anyone else is going to go. If you go first, you need to be able to predict what will still be available at the end. Figuring out what kinds of picks will still be available for your second choice when you go first is by far the hardest thing you can possibly try to do in picking your settlement spots.
@@dandydrew What im saying is that a lot of multiplayer online games suffer from lack of players and then try to solve it by putting bots instead of players. I love Catan and it would break my heart if that were to be the case.
people are so bad at this beatifull games. most of the time they dont know with whom is trading someone or how much card is offering to someone with better numbers :S

Who would have guessed that losing the wood over one of the bricks was acutally the way to victory :D
What a cosmic coincidence! The perfect steal into the perfect roll.
if he had lost a brick instead he could have just:
- 2 for 1 the wood for a wheat
- build settlement on 3 for 1
- 3 for 1 brick twice (once for wood once for wheat)
- build other settlement
if he lost the sheep it would be the same just with a sheep instead of a wood on the second exchange
crazy how many people like this comment without fact checking
Fact checking is so last century dude. Its 2024, wake up .@@Konstamonsta
that was one of the smoothest games I've ever seen! I'm very impressed w ur strategizing and board-analysis skill
What a beautiful wood port game.
I loved the set up. That's something I like to look for and just play. As long as the dice are rolling, I like mashing stuff.

Spoiler 🛡️
192 likes and no comments, that’s crazy
After 9 months you get it. Thank you.
Bless you, kind soul
Nice. Love games that are not all about ore-wheat-sheep.
the 11s at the beginning changed the game. gave you so much more production
Also the lobster man for 200IQ lmao
Jordan Peterson says bear your cross and yours seems to be Wood
broo that game was so sick but also i enjoyed a lot how you had a calm fun demeanor :D
At 6:35 red commits a road and your 6 clay gets rolled on your turn. My thought is to trade your ore generously to blue for their clay. This gives you the opportunity to double road up to the 8 wheat with the added benefit of securing your wood port spot.
Is this a Catan Browser? I was feeling that the one in Steam was lacking, but this gives me the good tingle!
how do i get acess to this version of online catan
Search colonist on google :)
Discord Games (titled Colonist)
no idea what i am watching but i’m team sheep
6:08 at this point. If no weed trades. It might be usefull to add an extra road to secure the port.
Hate when I get no weed trades
Idk if it was just me but the zoom out made it hard to follow ):
Why is there a picture of Jorden Peterson in the thumbnail?!?!
He's supposedly a "genius" 🤦♂🙄
The zoomed out board was triggering me too much
9:48 I love when lesser players feel the need to inform the table of what another player plans on utilizing for their production.
I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay
I sleep all night and I work all day!
Just saw your video in recommended (coming from DyLighted).
You just earned yourself a subscriber! Love your voice, smooth like honey!
Great game! I was just looking for a catan video too!
Could you try a C&K video for fun? No one is really making content for modes outside of the base game.
I agree, would love to see Drew play some Whacky game modes like the volcano or c&k
I disagree I don't think any of the expansions add much to the base game
love this game over the board might have to start playing this
I just love the 3 9/11 strat, with the wheat and ore
Is this game also available with cities & knights? I always felt the base game seems really basic when one experienced that expansion. Do you play that as well or do you stick to basic catan?
Yes it is but you have to pay
At 8:00~ why don't you block The 10Tree ? like it's denying 2 Players wood and you still could snag from Green?
Don't know if it's just me, but please can you keep the map zoomed in so it fits the screen?
Why would blue point the first road at the 3:1 port on the 10 and not the 3:1 port on the 9/12? That's just dumb. Very unlikely to have competition for that 9/12 spot, and it's obviously superior.
Masterclass by Dandy
Masterclass by Ohitsteto on how to be AWESOME
@dandydrew are you streaming this weekend? Is there any social media where you announce when you are streaming?
@@ohitsteto I will be live sometime this weekend. I need to get better about having a more formal schedule.
feels like accepting the 3 for 1 early was a major throw
how do i play this game online.?
Colonist.io
Very well played but games from the rankings placement phase Dandy? We need some high level stuff...

if you could add one building to the game what would it be? and wich card would you need
Capitol city. upgrade a city with 2 of every resource (10 total) gives you 3 of every resource connected to it. can only have one in the game.
@@brosaus don’t even play the game, but that sounds awful
@@ordinarilyirresistible6907 how does it sound awful? I think it's decently balanced. It gives massive production so it's really strong but also very expensive to build. You also need to have built a settlement and a city first before being able to build it. So it's a late game option.

What game is this 😮 Ik it’s catan but where exactly do I play this ranked mode on this game
So you were referencing yourself in the title?
I know the game is Catan but is it online or ?
What an absolute blowout
How do you get this version of Catan to play? I bought Catan Universe and the UI is so fucking bad, I was expecting this but it's a different version or something?
it's colonist. Catan filled with microtransactions.
@@BlueSheep777 Thanks, I mistakenly downloaded and "bought" Catan Universe which scumbags people by buying the game as a microtransaction so you can't refund it. That had a terrible UI
@@Tricksterboom no problem, happy that i've helped.
How does one make enough money playing catan, is there gambling among online players?! Are tournaments corporately sponsored?
What app is this?
Why would your opponents trade wheat with you at the start? Even a 3:1 trade isn't worth it giving you a wood port with 3 wood tiles.
Kind of hard to complain about a 3 for 1 when I can 4 for 1 on my own
What version of cantan is this? I’ve downloaded like 4 versions and they all play terrible
Why not catan unverse?
Idk how you think it was close… you were so far ahead
Which catan game is this?
I played a game where the bot had an accidental strategy like this and beat the human players 😅
Love it! Wood port is THE port.
could someone tell me the name of the game and the platform please?
colonist is the app and the board game is catan
What version of the game is this? What do you play it on?
The game is called colonist.io !
Where can I play Catan online aswell?
Where can I download this game?
Colonist on Google play. There are some more Catan apps and places. For example Steam and browser versions
never played this in my life but looks really fun.
Are you pursuing rank 1 again this season?

Isnt it weird that all the other players have bot names and they never comment or interact?
Not sure exactly what you are insinuating but if it has anything to do with me secretly playing bots then you are mistaken.
