A lot has been changed since this video came out: 1) Now the player who picks the territories first - will always go first, doesn't matter how many territories the map has, and the player who picks the territories second - will always go 2nd now. 2) Now you can win by capturing all of the capitals ONLY after the 3rd turn from the beginning of the game has passed.
Has this trick been changed? I started playing simple world, Manual placement, capital conquest, and although the first player places there capital second, they still attack first. Am I doing something wrong?
Many thanks for the excellent advice. I have had 100% success so far using this strategy - the only downside is that it takes ages to get an opponent willing to enter my spider's web, no doubt a factor of the specialisation of the board and being master ranked.
Hey ! did you make another video with the same topic recently? I want to improve my ranking but the original map has been changed. Another question, what is your biggest record of units in a territory?
I didn't make any newer video on it recently but there is a classic map version of it: ua-cam.com/video/6qCDI30zN9E/v-deo.html The biggest units on a territory probably were these which I did for fun: ua-cam.com/users/shortsJFM4hVonu28?feature=share
My Friend, you made my day again. Every time i think i have seen it all, you come up with another fascinating aspect of the game. You are truly the best. High5 mate.
Thank you so much risk 4 ever you are amazing! I was a novice and i raised to intermediate in one day. The best part is when they take all of my territory and then taunt me, And then i win 3 seconds into my turn lol.
It’s clear to me that it was later removed which might take days, months or even years to get back if there is no update. So technically, it’s a strategy for a map that’s clearly unavailable right now.
Your tips are extremely helpful. Perhaps you can help me with a problem. How can I get the view of the map you have in your video? The only view I can see has a larger map that is overlapped by the various icons around the edges.
ChampionEver, 0:27 How can you have lost more troops than you defeated but still win a majority of your games? Trying to wrap my head around that metric. The only reason I can think of is that it indicates you let others do the fighting for you and you just clean up at the end when necessary. LOL :)
I'm afraid it doesn't 😅 Classic map has a lot of territories, so the player who starts attacking first will get an advantage since he will be getting bigger territory troop bonus. Well, maybe you could still get easy wins playing against novice and beginner rank players 🤔 I'd recommend setting some unranked games and see how it goes for you 👍
Has this been changed? I started playing simple world, Manual placement, capital conquest, and although the first player places there capital second, they still attack first. Am I doing something wrong?
I haven't played with capitals yet, so I cannot comment on that, but what I have noticed is that balanced blitz was quite strengthened, now you lose quite less troops it seems, sometimes even way too less, and I'm not sure if I like it... I wish the balanced blitz would be weakened, but not as much as in the last update... I wish it would be the same as it was before 2 bigger updates, before 2.3.0 update which was on Dec 17, 2019 to be exactly clear. As that one quite weakened balanced blitz that I didn't like at all, but with the newest update the balanced blitz is quite overpowered it seems that isn't too good as well I guess...
Or actually, I'm not too sure about the balanced blitz tbh, in the first game I played after I updated the game, the balanced blitz seemed kinda overpowered (just uploaded that game to the channel). But today after responding to your comment I played some more games, and it seemed that I and other players lose the same amount of troops as usual, so that's weird 🤔

It has been changed: now the player who picks the territories first - will always go 1st, doesn't matter how many territories the map has, and the player who picks the territories second - will always go 2nd now. Also another rule has been added: now you can win by capturing all of the capitals only after the 3rd turn from the beginning of the game has passed.
uhh, i have a doubt, and that is that i don't know how ranks go.... on my account it says that i'm a novice, and my rank is 323.785, and my friend - he's way worst than me - is a novice but with a 600.000 saw saw rank. how does that work? i have played and wined much more games than him.
@@Risk4Ever ohhhhh thak you, i just coulden't live with out u!!! i love your channel, and i'm becoming soo goodat risk, that one friend of mine, when i win, once he told his parents: "I ALREADY KNOW HOW TO WIN MANTIS!!!" he sure was angry... hon hon hon
Love your videos Champ!! However this strategy seems cheap and should be fixed.. I don't see how this improves anyone's skill in risk. Anyhow just my thoughts.
Watched this video but don't have simple map. Played it in classic map and won 15 in a row. I place all 20 troops at Slam with at. least one troop in Australia. If opponent places his capital and 20 troops in Australia i have them blocked in.
Nice! 15 wins streak is very impressive! 🔥 And wow, congrats on reaching top 1000 so fast 😎 I used to play on Classic map with manual setup placing my capital either on Siam or Indonesia, but without fog and with 4 bots. But the thing is, that my opponents usually go for Australia by themselves as well, as obviously it's the easiest continent to hold. And same opponents joining over and over again eventually realise your strategy and then the game becomes on luck on who goes first getting the opportunity to pick "the right territory" first. Well, I was mostly playing with grandmasters and masters. It might have went better if I had played with low rank players (and additionally with fog of war and without bots) 🤔 Actually your comment gave me an another great video idea on how to reach Grandmaster rank fast, gonna create a new account and I will see how it goes for me. Thank you! 😎
This fucker attacked my 110+ army with his 100+ but somehow won and we even had an alliance. Ruined my plans and destroyed the balance. Wasted more than half an hour on the match for some psycho to suicide on me late game
Not possible as far as I know (unless the developers have such data which are not public). But even if it was the way, I don't think it would be valuable in order to determine the best players. Mostly high win streaks have the players who play 1v1's, even higher wins streaks have the players who play 1v1's with novices/beginners only (if you pressed on the profiles of top leaderboard players, you would see that a lot of them have win streaks of over 100 or even 200 games), and finally the players, who only play single player games with dumb AI, have the highest win streaks which could contain over thousands of games.
So amazing. I reached grandmaster relatively quickly. Especially since I do not need to depend on absence of cheaters to win games... Just pure strategy. Great video 👍
You don't need premium, but you need to have New World Views map pack, but yeah it costs, but on the other hand it's so cheap, one payment of $3 or so, but if it it still too much, then you can get it even cheaper if you wait for the sales
Do beginners and novices know the strategy too? You could try kicking from the lobby any other rank players and playing only with beginners/novices if you see that a lot of high ranked players know this strategy

ChampionEver, now hundreds of players are going to start employing that strategy and it will be tougher to make the climb....

Another very informative video. Thanks Champion!😄😎
Thank you! 😎 I'm glad you like it! 😁
The highest I've ever been was top 700 because people end up killing themselves on me 😭 . So I stopped going up
Feels bad 😢 I hope you will start having a better luck 🙏
@@Risk4Ever I hope have good luck too. So far I'm at intermediate I'm try to get to masters today

Within twenty minutes of me watching this video, I gained over 18 thousand in ranking! I’m still well within the Expert ranking!
Wow, well done!! 😁
It’s clear to me that it was later removed which might take days, months or even years to get back if there is no update. So technically, it’s a strategy for a map that’s clearly unavailable right now.
Thank I’ll try it
Awesome! 😎 Let me know how it goes for you 😃
At 0:31 may I ask how you had a game where you made 2000 turns?
I have no idea myself as well 😂 Maybe I had a bug in that game or idk what even happened 🤔
Your tips are extremely helpful. Perhaps you can help me with a problem. How can I get the view of the map you have in your video? The only view I can see has a larger map that is overlapped by the various icons around the edges.
It was the old version of the app. The view has been changed since then
@@Risk4Ever I was afraid that would be the answer, but thanks for the quick response. Please keep the videos coming. They are great.
Champion I saw someone do the same thing with u so I beat him
Wow. I've never seen these two things before: Capital conquest, and 'simple map'.....interesting......
Those two combined work perfectly for an easy rank boost 😃
Nice 👌 and it's time to start grinding rank points
Thanks! I hope this strategy will help you to reach Grandmaster rank very soon 😎
@@Risk4Ever thankd

Does it also work on classic map? If it does. Where to put capital and your biggest army? 😁
Because i dont have premium account.... 😭

I have been gm in 3 hours. Thanks..
Impressive!! 💪
Has this been changed? I started playing simple world, Manual placement, capital conquest, and although the first player places there capital second, they still attack first. Am I doing something wrong?
With this strategy do you need to put in a minimum rank? Or will this work regardless of the rank of your opponent?
You could play with any ranked players
They have it so that there's a period of three rounds before capitals activate though, right?? This strategy is effectively useless.
The latest update has radically changed the dynamics of this game. Please share your views on how your think it changes your approach.

The lower number is, the higher ranked you are, so you are ranked higher than your friend. The best rank in the game is 1.

strategy is good but if u play only with this strategy when u go other maps probably u cant win against players same as ur elo

the strategy is to op 👍

If you play single player in France with capital conquest against one easy bot,
you can win in 6 sec
Nice! 😎
So simple world capcon fixed wasnt a bad idea after all?! Good job AI! Lol

My win streak is 30, without using any of these cheats. Is there a way to see top win steaks?
Not possible as far as I know (unless the developers have such data which are not public). But even if it was the way, I don't think it would be valuable in order to determine the best players.

How'd you win a game in 1 turn (0:28)
Like at 5:27, simply by blitzing your opponent's capital in your first turn :) I even saw some people sharing screenshots of like 9 or 7 seconds win
Hey there Champion, not accusing you of anything but I couldn't find your name on the leaderboard.
I'm 44th, check out the leaderboard again 👍
