You have no idea how much this helped my mom. We like to play Villainous a lot (it’s a game we can get really competitive in) and King Candy is quite possibly her favorite Disney villain, but she was having a lot of trouble with how more complicated he was given his new board. Thank you so much and god bless!
I’m super excited to finally play him , it’s so close to my birthday. Next Saturday is coming up so fast, it will be here before I know it. I so excited to finally try him out. Thanks so much for all the helpful tips, he definitely seems so interesting and a different way to play a evil villain.
My poor poor wife: last night we did our 1st battle with Mom Gothel (Tangled) and I was KC. She pulled the VVS card and thought it was a MUST play ( a la Peter Pan) so she played her rather than the other (TBF I thought it was a must play too). Started the Big Race decently early. Into TBR 16:11 she pulled this one and the card at top of my pile was "can't be allowed to race" which got ger 1 away from finish. KC was 3 away so I won. I kept telling her to NOT go one offensive bc what VVS does FOR KC but she still did. At least now we know discard her and its totally fine to attack KC, even moreso now
@@theabsentfriend4002 Honestly I remind her we are playing to learn these characters so we can clean house against other couples we invite over! 😂 we bought the 6 villain box to start and immediately loved it and been adding one since. Bigger and Badder arrives Monday and so we only dont have Evil Comes Prepared. We've now played all from the ones we have except Gaston and Pete. We started 1-1 (I won with Hook, she won w Queen of Hearts) but since then I have won each time. She plays too defensively so Ive encouraged her to do fate actions much more frequently but some Villains (appear) OP, like Shere Khan and Horned King. Glad I found your channel as you interpret these each so well. I 100% am honest with her on tactics bc I would rather win or lose on a totally fair/competitive game than run up the score, ESPECIALLY with my wife! sorry to go on but this game-type setp is so up my alley that I want her to enjoy it as I do. When we play Catan or Raccoon Tycoon she wins a LOT so she has it in her. I think helping her to know what hurts her opponent and to understand the path to achieve her characters victory will really help her and so far your breakdowns really help! Great production quality too, underrated
Played him last night. Went in blind for the fun of a new villain to play, and was searching frantically for a way to bring out Vanellope. I never drew the medal before my opponents won, but had a great time slowing down around the fate actions to really annoy my family. Looking forward to playing him again!
Yeah, I feel like he's too limited on his options to get his win condition started; he literally only has one card in his deck to do it. There's also no reason for your opponents to ever play Venelope if she's drawn from his fate deck. It's one of those instances where it should specify that if she's drawn, she has to be played.
@@SpookGod Yeah, you gotta cycle that deck to get that medal quick. Several other villains are the same way. Captain Hook you can’t win with him until you play Neverland Map. Jafar can’t win without the magic lamp, etc etc
@theabsentfriend4002 Definitely, I'm not crazy about characters who have a win condition that difficult to obtain. Horned King has multiple avenues to get the Black Cauldron, Scar has multiple options to get heroes out of his Fate deck; its a better design philosophy than "lol there's 1 card in your entire deck you *must* have, good luck, nerd."
Excellent review, as always. Looking forward to your solo play (hopefully soon). I guess Frozen Prince Han's reveal was probably the unexpected twist; Toy story 2 had two - Stinky Pet being the villain and Zurg turning out to be actually nice guy after all (and there was Lightyear' take on who Zurg actually was but the less said about that movie the better). But I think King Candy being the unexpected villain was probably the best twist reveal that Disney/Pixar has done so far.
See, I knew he was gonna be the villain, I just didn’t know he was that Turbo character, lol. But yes, Hans being the surprise villain, that was good!!!
I would say Stinky Pete from Toy Story 2 was quite a shocker, he initially seemed like such a sweet old man so kid me was shocked when I saw him heel turn to a grouch who hates kids, yet it was still well telegraphed and motivated looking back. I really hope he gets added to villainous in the future.
@@alexwadman even then that could be hard to represent in a board game without feeling uncomfortable. Though I’m sure they could figure something out. Perhaps instead you are just trying to find Esmerelda like how Yzma needs to find Kuzco. Not sure how to make it different from Yzma but that could be an option.
@@janehuskmann1914 I never saw Coco, so I’ll take your word on that one. What was the big twist with Lotso? I knew he was the villain from the start, lol
Question. Playing last night. My son had 1 glitch attached during race and I drew the fate card where I remove a glitch. Does the race end and have to be started over after new glitch is attached??
Yes it does. I’m not sure if the racer token stays on the track or not, but when a new glitch is attached, the race starts all over again as it the did the first round!! Good job getting rid of the glitch!
Great video thank you so much for making this! I have a question that I cannot find the answer to anywhere. You have a lot of knowledge on this so I thought I would ask you if you know! I am I’m confused with the big race. It says that the racing token moves each turn but it doesn’t say how many space it moves. Do you know home many spaces that token moves each turn? Or does it only move when a card tells it to? Please let me know if you know! 😊
@@CarterFritze Sure thing! Once the big race begins … before King Candy moves on his turn, he will reveal the top of his deck. Whatever the cost of the card, the racer token will move forward that many spaces plus TWO. So if he reveals “Candy Cy-bug,” he will move the racer token 4 spaces. If the card revealed has no power cost then the racer still moves ahead 2. I hope that helps!
@@theabsentfriend4002 Yes that helps a ton!! Thank you so much! It has been driving me and my friends crazy and we wanted ti make sure we were playing correctly. Thanks again! 😊
@@asf3378 When you glitch Vanellope, the race begins and her racer token and King Candy go to the starting spot and then before king Candy moves on his turn, he must reveal the top card of his deck and then move the racer token forward equal to the amount of that cards cost PLUS two! Hopefully that helps
@@theabsentfriend4002 No, but they make game guides that are clear, concise, and to the point about how to play the game. And from what I've seen in this video, that's not really the case. Sorry if that's abrasive, it's just something that I felt like needed to be said.
@@denversan4205 That’s fine. Not everyone is gonna like my style. I just try to make guides easy to understand but also fun with the occasional joke or running gag. It’s okay if you don’t like it. Have you ever played Disney Villainous?

@@mattydins Thank you!! I’m glad I could help!! Now that’s she an expert on king Candy, you gotta learn how to play AGAINST KC! 😜

@@andrewlowden322 Awww, thank you so much. This game captured me on my first play as well. I’ve become obsessed with it.

I dunno, since they’ve done Lotso, they might not to another Toy Story, we shall see
I really think Randall and Frolo from hunchback need to be the next two!
@@alexwadman For sure. My only worry is that they may be afraid to do Frollo because his goal is pretty… icky.
@@ktoon4725 absolutely icky I like the substitute word. Maybe they change it to getting rid of Gypsys and keep it at that 🤣
@@alexwadman even then that could be hard to represent in a board game without feeling uncomfortable. Though I’m sure they could figure something out. Perhaps instead you are just trying to find Esmerelda like how Yzma needs to find Kuzco. Not sure how to make it different from Yzma but that could be an option.
Do underestimate his ability to fate fairly consistently. Use this to hold other villains back so you have time to get to what you need to win.
@@theblindjedi41 Very true! Good idea!
King Candy and Ernesto de la Cruz were the more Turbo-tastic twist villains of the modern age, but Lotso's also wasn't bad.
@@janehuskmann1914 I never saw Coco, so I’ll take your word on that one. What was the big twist with Lotso? I knew he was the villain from the start, lol

CORRECTION: You do remove the racer token if all the glitches are removed.
@@theabsentfriend4002 how would the racer token come back into play then to start the race over?
@@asylumchild3317 a new glitch is added to vanelope!
Imo bellwether from zootopia had the best twist. Had no idea she would be the villain
lol, she would make a good Villainous villain
Zootopia would be awesome!
@@davetomasheski9509 For sure!
Im confused on the turbo tastic card, can i just play it at anytime or do you have to be near a play a card to use this card to play another action?
@@specialk3116 you can use it anytime during your turn … it requires no play action! Hope that helps!

@@theabsentfriend4002why is this not in the rules. Drived me crazy too, can’t find this anywhere. So I assume it real
It’s written in the vanellope von Schweetz card
Im so lost on how and when the racer token move.
