Anachrony...what a great death-match finale! I still want to pick this one up some day. I really enjoyed seeing the matches from start to finish and explore some games I would not have otherwise. And now I know how to get in on the voting next time. Well done! EDIT: I can't seem to get access to the Discord even though I'm a patreon.
Anachrony is so fantastic. It's my top pick out of these with Grand Austria Hotel pretty close behind. And Brass...can go back to the Industrial age from whence it came.
I always enjoy these but this category had me super invested. I can't believe Teotihuacan got knocked out! Also I love Caylus!! It's definitely not my favorite but I don't hate the provost until I'm the target of course LOL I have Praga Caput Regni but haven't played it yet. Hopefully soon but since the pandemic my chances for play have been majorly limited.
Ooh you'll have to let me know about Praga, I feel like it doesn't have much of the flash of a lot of these other ones, and the fact it's still so high up on BGG says something interesting is going on
@@RoomandBoardReviews yeah! I definitely get the lack of flash. It has the historical theme which has gone out of style a bit of late, but it has some fun gameplay mechanics from what I've seen. Plus it has the Vladimír Suchy pedigree. I'll definitely let you know what I think when I finally play it.
Damn them's some good games. My final four picks would be Keyflower v GWT on the left, and Hallertau v Brass: Birmingham on the right. That might change once you reveal what is replacing Bounce Off, and I'm surprised to not see Tzolk'in, Rococo, Castles of Mad King Ludwig, or _any_ of the games in the Garphill trilogies by Shem Phillips.
3:25 Wait… How is Bounce Off are 5 complexity - greater than all the other games? It is obviously not part of the crunchy Euro category - therefore, it would be funny if people had voted for it just because they could - and to throw your bracket off into chaos! :-
Some of your voters are not to be trusted. The True top three is Trickerion. Brass Birmingham, and Lisboa. Oh I forgot my extra vote, Pax Pamir gets in making it a top four! The most overrated funny enough is Anachrony. Most confusing entry is Disc World. And clearly 7th continent wins the competition.

The fact that you gave a full two minutes on Bounce Off is true commitment!
You're right, it did probably deserve more XD
So happy to see mindclash in the finals, I am new to the hobby, but loved trickerion and hoping to pick up anachrony soon. Great video as always!
16:36 The “mini-game”, btw, is called Mancala. I am surprised that you do not seem to have heard of it!
40:52 I’m surprised that Energy Empire wasn’t assigned to go up against Power Grid!
Trajan seems to be a game that I might enjoy.
Very proud of Anachrony!
Thanks for he highly entertaining video.
Maybe I need to try Discworld and Vinhos now.
57:35 From what I hear, I think Anachrony is definitely worthy of the title. I think Pipeline got snubbed, though!

Send me a message on Patreon and we'll get it sorted out, happy to help make it happen.
No Puerto Rico in the bracket? This is outrageous!
Anachrony is so fantastic. It's my top pick out of these with Grand Austria Hotel pretty close behind.
And Brass...can go back to the Industrial age from whence it came.
That was a great retelling of the voting it kept me watching instead of skipping, well done! Wish trickerion won but very happy brass didn't :)
52:25 But with Anachrony, you can just go back in time and change the result! :-
7:09 Shocks! I thought Caverna was going to go up against Agricola!
Fun video. That's a pretty great list of games, and Anachrony totally deserves the win 🏆
Dude spoilers
@@shortydancer Ha ha! I know!! I didn't even think of that until I saw my comment posted. 😳
I love these videos. Even knowing the outcome they are a fun hour’ish of my day
The commentary helps! Thanks for doing these!
37:48 And here I go onto BGG, as you tell me NOT to… Checking it anyway…
Sh! You were completely right on!
19:54 Ah… So sad 😞
39:14 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just lost a bunch of money. Why did…? How dare you!
Wow, a little shocking results. For a long time I thought Anachrony was kinda under-appreciated niche game, but I'm happy to see it thrive.
Chris,
So when is the next deathmatch recap show? I am missing them already!
Tomorrow!
@@RoomandBoardReviews Cool, thank you! 😊
Well this is either not my genre at all or maybe a new frontier I need to explore, I haven't played a single game in this deathmatch lol.
Same! It was interesting to hear more about some of these but as a relative newcomer to this hobby I don’t feel ready to play these games yet.
9:22 I am guessing that Lisboa beat the heck out of Clans of Caledonia - which I have heard is an under-rated gem!
10:53 Ha! I knew it… Too late to play it now :-(
I always enjoy these but this category had me super invested.
I can't believe Teotihuacan got knocked out!
Also I love Caylus!! It's definitely not my favorite but I don't hate the provost until I'm the target of course LOL

I love it. The cat that is. We have a golden glitter and Snow SPL. Bengals are the best.
Oh cuuute
13:17 But I thought Barrage would be going up against Pipeline!
And that Prêt-a-Porter would be going up against Rococo! :-)
I need to play Anachrony.
Oh I'm so happy my game didn't burn! (watch to find out which)
10:09 …And have already been burned… so they couldn’t possibly be here to be burned again…
What is the minimum weight, maximum weight, median weight, average weight and standard deviation of the games in the dataset of the bracket? Thanks.
I might try to play this bracket if I can get the games organized :) and see if we get to the same conclusion
That'd be awesome! Definitely let me know when you do :)
4:04 Bounce Off!!! I think Bounce Off is going to win!!! :-
Diskworld owners around the world are crying over the char of their previously valuable games. I wanted to get my hands on a copy. Now it's too late.
Damn them's some good games. My final four picks would be Keyflower v GWT on the left, and Hallertau v Brass: Birmingham on the right. That might change once you reveal what is replacing Bounce Off, and I'm surprised to not see Tzolk'in, Rococo, Castles of Mad King Ludwig, or _any_ of the games in the Garphill trilogies by Shem Phillips.
Great picks! I would love a Keyflower GWT battle for that side, they're both so great
Castles seems pretty light for this crunchy euro game deathmatch
@@shortydancer Fair point. Rococo is on the lighter side too. I just think Castles is hard because I suck at it (but love it so so much).
3:25 Wait… How is Bounce Off are 5 complexity - greater than all the other games? It is obviously not part of the crunchy Euro category - therefore, it would be funny if people had voted for it just because they could - and to throw your bracket off into chaos! :-
15:18 …Against Viticulture!
That is, Vinhos vs. Viticulture! :-)
Kanban EV for the win
Constructive comment: KITTY!11
33:51 It’s BIR-MIN-UM, not BIR-MING-HAM…
37:39 Oh, please… PLEASE don’t pull Bounce Off from the competition! I have my money on Bounce Off winning!…
13:14 Oh no :(
Uhhh I think it’s pronounced “crouwnchy”

Troyes should have been be on there, otherwise cool
Please don't be mad - I went ahead and decided not to purchase the Lorenzo big box!
Definitely play it, pretty good game
Ahahaha
