@@TheKillPeteStrategy I have searched risk e sports and this video cane along, i was curious how different strategies does community have and ive learned a lot from this video
my first reaction to this was "huh, a risk vid, I like risk, I'll give it a watch" cut to 1 hour later "holy shit this game is intense and this guy is wholesome"
@@TheKillPeteStrategy this video picked by algorithm don’t get me wrong 50 live viewers are pretty decent it is enough activeness to talk chat have a decent income and make new friends but when compare to this videos views it looks small i hope u get bigger loved the vid
40 concurrent viewers is more than you think, I would bet it's easily within the top 1% of twitch streams. People are desensitized to it because they're used to watching streamers with 1000+ viewers.
When I was in college a group of us played Risk almost every night for 2 months. The game soon became boring with cards being drawn to win the game. So we changed the game to create navies to control the water paths. We used the 10 unit markers to indicate naval units. Each continent had an island that took a navy to cross the link (We created Terra del Fuego for South America but had to add Cuba for North America to be viable). The oceans were North Atlantic, Indian, South Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico, Mediterranean (makes Africa viable) and Pacific and South China Sea. You had to own the ocean to attack across the links. You could load troops onto fleets and could move them ocean to ocean as long as you held or captured them in your turn. If you lost your ships the troops were lost too. You could only fight for oceans with fleets and of course the land troops were the little single blocks. This really livened up the game and made strategy more complex. If you had a large navy you could retreat to your island and rise again.
@@agresseur7184 Bro I used to play with capitals. So instead of missions every player would choose where to put their capital and it would always be a 5 stack. Also made it more fun than using missions.
This was randomly recommended to me, and I really enjoyed it! Typically, with VODs, I tend to put them on in the background while doing something else, but for the whole duration I was watching intently and was fully engaged, so I am leaving a comment here to help the stats on this video and hopefully get it recommended to other people! I really liked your commentating, if that's the right word, and this was just very relaxing and entertaining to watch. Well done!
Pete if you get a bigger green screen you can turn your stream into a weather channel🤣 You can stand up and talk about the game. That would the perfect Shirtless Pete Strategy. Good game and I hope to see you on Twitch soon!
What is that man child that doesn't know anything about strategy :S You did not win because you are good, they screwed themselves. The only reason your sitting worked is because they played poorly in it. Black should have chewed on bot when he was small, to gain pressure in europe as he was the strongest at that time, then chew on the next weaker player. From pressure you can force or incite other players to certain moves, he didn't do shit, and he could have even after getting locked in Asia. But instead everybody sat. They were dumb to wait until you had more troops even if they could see your revenue. . . What is that, santa claus strategy? Please make something happen out of nowhere for me? Try games with a larger community, you'll face truly smart players there. Sorry you just happened to stumble under my sight and got feedback from a wider perspective of Reality. Also known as ''bursting your bubble''. I was annoyed by the behavior gotta say.

Honestly I've never even known that Risk had a broad community like this but damn I'm glad that one of my favourite board games does. Glad to see this come across my feed and now a new subscriber. Keep up the good content sir.
The community started growing around 2018 or whenever this particular risk was made. All the other risk games (to include console) failed to build such a community, this ine has seen great success though
@@joebowl8315 You read all of the comments before you watch the video? Life style difference I guess. No sympathy here. It's not like it's an informative video or anything. Have fun bowling mr. Joe.
Watched the whole thing and brought me back to my childhood playing Risk with my Dad and Grandfather as a kid. Very well played my man PATIENCE was key here!
I have no idea why UA-cam recommended this to me, but an hour and a half later I'm so glad they did! I don't think Ive ever watched a whole video like this on my phone without multi tasking, very cool video sir.
I've only really played risk a few dozen times a good year or two ago, and this randomly came onto my timeline and I thoroughly enjoyed the entire thing. Extremely wholesome too!
Normally when random stuff like this comes across the feed i just ignore it. But I'm so glad i checked this out. You did a great job explaining, Informing and entertaining me through the entire thing. Didn't feel anywhere close to an hour and a half. Brought me back to the fun times playing this game with friends. Now time to go watch the rest of the tournament. Ill stop by your twitch chat too!
Not that much to explain. Having sunk a lot of time into this game its basically always the same: guys hoard up troops until 1 guy makes a move that slightly annoys another who then suddenly suicides all his troops allowing the lucky guy to win.
I'm amazed how entertaining this was. I remember the epic Risk games when I was a kid and my dad's stories about playing with his brother. They played world domination games that would literally last for days! Also, love your positive personality and vibes.
No idea how this wound up being recommended, but this was a fun game to watch and the man playing seemed genuinely happy to be entertaining to his audience. It was fun seeing how hyped he was getting for getting over 100 viewers. Have to wonder how he feels with a youtube video with nearly 800k views.
I was so wrapped up the whole time. And when you won at the end I started screaming with joy. It was awesome to watch your patience and strategy pay off in the end. So rewarding to see it. Awesome game man.
I love that like everyone else I found you through the algorithm. I love strategy games, and I appreciate a good strategist that talks through his strategy as he’s playing and executes very good moves. Earned a sub!
All the support possible Pete! I'm so happy that you are managing to pull those numbers and get attention,for the chill streams,top tier gameplay and everything including. Imma just get my "been here before he got famous" card and wish you all the best in life and every aspect of it!
So many kind words. It means a lot. Fame is a tricky notion to fathom. I've been paying attention to the product. I really want to make this video work the best it can possibly be. If more people enjoy it that makes it all the more worthwhile.
You are someone who is so easy to root for to win these events. I usually root for the underdog, and you are one of the best around. Still, your positive attitude and honesty really makes rooting for you a no brainer for me. Keep it going!
Keep streaming you will definitely get a much bigger audience if you keep doing stuff like this. I was just intending to skip through and get an idea of what was going on but ended up watching the full length. Great content and keep it coming!
I felt the same way, “oh Competitive Risk? That's weird.” “Woah this guy is extremely passionate.” “Holy shit this is so wholesome, he put a lot of work into.” “Woah that was a quick hour and a half.”
Baked like a pie and the algorithm blessed me with this. Can't believe i sat and watched an entire pro risk game but what a lovely guy and good vibes, subbed.
Randomly got recommended this by youtube. Super interesting to watch. You're doing a good job of talking through the thought process and still interacting with chat whenever possible. If I may offer some constructive criticism however I'd recommend turning down the sound of your notifications a bit and moving them so they don't cover your face, and as a result your reaction to the notification itself. Looking forward to more of this.
Man, I knew absolutely nothing about Risk before this… now I feel like a professional. Great video, very entertaining. Especially loved how you let black get more points because they helped you earlier in the game 😌
So happy I came across this channel! I started playing risk almost 50 years ago as a small child, & it evolved into a passion in my early teens, when my best, his family & I got into games that lasted weeks & had to be tracked on paper as the army sizes got so big. Unfortunately I moved away from that area & family 44 yrs ago & never found anyone else that appreciated the game & never really played again. Had no idea this was now an online game. I’m so curious about it. I barely remember the game tbh. I can’t wait to watch a master & re-learn what I’ve forgotten! Obviously liked & sub’d!
Wow this video with the commentary and the strategic plays and maneuvering was amazing. Just started risk a month ago and found this so fun too watch. Thank you!
I have never heard of Risk until now, and weirdly i was drawn in by your elaborate commentary and gameplay even though i had no idea what was happening
Had he waited any more turns and let them hit him a bit more he could’ve consolidated his entire positron in south and North America and crushed everyone
@@TheKillPeteStrategy i love how you respond to the comments 6 months after you released the video shows you're humble 🙏🙏 gonna go watch some more of your vids now gn
I must admit that i hate playing Risk with a burning passion. Never would have thought that watching others play (quite competently i might add) is rather enjoyable. Thanks for the entertainment and keep up the good work!
I've played Risk once in my life and the game lasted 8+ hours and ended with us deciding it wasn't worth continuing since it was 6AM and we were tired. Never seen it played other than that, but I can say that the game plays better virtually with a time limit, that's for sure haha. Great video, love your energy.
@@TheKillPeteStrategy I used to play Risk with my housemates everyday after work on the xbox and it was an absolute blast. I downloaded Risk last night and joined the discord, can't wait to get my friends involved. We all live in different countries now so this is perfect for us. thanks Pete
i'm new to risk and when i started this video i didn't think i would watch a lot of it, i ended up watching the whole thing! it was really interesting and fun to watch! :)
Just came here from watching an old Jerma VOD of him and a couple other streamers playing this game and I thought it was super neat + I felt a bunch of nostalgia for the original game. Glad to see that risk is still getting all of the love, support, and dedication from the community it deserves. Thank you to everyone in this community for keeping an old classic alive.
It's so cool to see the creator is still hearting and replying to comments. Risk is something we always made up rules for with my friends so seeing how it's supposed to be played is such a different learning experience. Thanks for the upload, I loved it.
Hey thank you! I spent a long time when I was younger being overconfident or a bit arrogant. As I have come to learn more I am better able to perceive the even greater amount of things that I do not. This is the source of the humility. I'm grateful that you enjoy the show and the opportunity that I have been given to entertain and teach others.
I love this guy! I love his demeanor and his excitement about ~50 people watching the stream! Now I want to learn more about advanced risk strategies because what everyone did goes against what my intuition is and these guys are the best so their strats are probably the ones to look at.
Your passion flows through the screen. I never even played risk before but this was recommended and I downloaded the risk app and started playing! You’re a natural. Keep it up
Haven't played this game before, or even heard about it, however watching this video was so entertaining and interesting. You have very humble and likeable personality!!
This has been wonderful. I love your attitude. This has been a great game, honestly kinda glad I stumbled upon you last night. This is wonderful. Good job man!
Never played a game of risk in my entire life, was super lost watching this. But on the flip side as a big total war player I love seeing the strategic and tactical choices going through your head, something I relate to very much when playing TW. Watched the whole thing, makes me wanna learn more about the game.
It’s 3am and I’ve just finished watching and I wanted to leave a comment just to say how much of a great video this was never seen this game in my life yet I watch an 1h 30min long vid of it?? just shows how entertaining of a content creator you are keep it up and don’t change ! 👏🏻
I have an average iq But I do have a pretty good memory. And I get really into stuff so I work hard. I never expected to see this kind of success with this project so it keeps coming as a fun surprise
I haven't played Risk since I was a kid, but watching high level play for the first time I can't help but think the game should be titled Risk Averse. Congrats on the win though, I never knew it was played like this!
Got into risk one week ago and you're the first UA-camr that got me inspired to play more, your videos are super chill and so is your tone of voice. Never thought I'd ever watch a whole hour and a half of a board game surprisingly this was really fun thanks for the video.
Wow can't believe this video blew up so much! I'm really happy for you Pete and I have to say it's special that it's this video because of the way you fought hard and managed to win even though your game was almost ruined and I remember this at the time was your biggest ever stream on twitch with 100 viewers.
Never thought I'd enjoy watching someone play risk this much. Very calming. Thanks Pete. You're seem to be a very likeable person. Much success to you 💯
As with many others, this randomly came up on my feed. I thoroughly enjoyed watching and was glued to my screen the entrire time. This really makes me want to play the game again. Keep up the good work!
Been a causal fan of risk my whole life, and after watching this I think I’m going to try and get into it and be competitive. Would love to understand the game better and be better! I’m really happy this came across my recommended. UA-cam did something right
Fabulous show. Not sure why the algorithm sent me here, but it was right. Really appreciated the commentary. Actually felt like I learned something about the game!
At first I wasn't sure. But dammit you're just so genuine that I can help but appreciate your love for this game. It's what's its all about. Have a passion and be open and friendly to share that passion so maybe it becomes someone else's.
That's a very nice thing to say. It's strange to me that everyone isn't geniune. After all its more work to be someone else than it is to just be yourself.

If more people enjoy it that makes it all the more worthwhile.
When playing the old school board game, we referred to taking a territory for a card and leaving 1 troop as 'friendly aggression'.
You and this series got me into risk and now I can't stop coming back to these awesome championship videos, cheers!
You are someone who is so easy to root for to win these events. I usually root for the underdog, and you are one of the best around. Still, your positive attitude and honesty really makes rooting for you a no brainer for me. Keep it going!
🙏
I don't think I've ever seen anyone so genuinely happy about their viewers! So happy to see the success!
Keep streaming you will definitely get a much bigger audience if you keep doing stuff like this. I was just intending to skip through and get an idea of what was going on but ended up watching the full length. Great content and keep it coming!
😻
Is that you, Reg?!
I felt the same way, “oh Competitive Risk? That's weird.” “Woah this guy is extremely passionate.” “Holy shit this is so wholesome, he put a lot of work into.” “Woah that was a quick hour and a half.”
Baked like a pie and the algorithm blessed me with this. Can't believe i sat and watched an entire pro risk game but what a lovely guy and good vibes, subbed.
Lol! What kind of pie?
@@TheKillPeteStrategy a big meaty one 🥧
It's amazing to see UA-cam pushing people with such a passion for their craft. Keep it up my man!
Randomly got recommended this by youtube. Super interesting to watch.
You're doing a good job of talking through the thought process and still interacting with chat whenever possible.
If I may offer some constructive criticism however I'd recommend turning down the sound of your notifications a bit and moving them so they don't cover your face, and as a result your reaction to the notification itself.
Looking forward to more of this.
I'll second turning down the notification volume. It's really jarring compared to the generally quiet atmosphere on stream.
Man do I wish there was a way to go back in time eight months and head the 100's of people off with the same request.
I third this.
I like how he was excited to have 40+ viewers during the live stream. Now hes almost at 1 mill on UA-cam.
Thank you for the 1 and 30 minutes at work where I became deeply invested in Competitive Risk for the first time.
Now let's see how deep the rabbit hole goes!
Man, I knew absolutely nothing about Risk before this… now I feel like a professional. Great video, very entertaining. Especially loved how you let black get more points because they helped you earlier in the game 😌
Thanks man! I'm glad you liked it
I had no idea you could play risk online but I'm here for it. I'm gonna sign up asap.
I don’t even fully understand this game and I’m locked in and have watched this entire video just off of this guys energy. Great job by you Pete.
So happy I came across this channel! I started playing risk almost 50 years ago as a small child, & it evolved into a passion in my early teens, when my best, his family & I got into games that lasted weeks & had to be tracked on paper as the army sizes got so big. Unfortunately I moved away from that area & family 44 yrs ago & never found anyone else that appreciated the game & never really played again. Had no idea this was now an online game. I’m so curious about it. I barely remember the game tbh. I can’t wait to watch a master & re-learn what I’ve forgotten! Obviously liked & sub’d!
Join the discord and play some games with us!
Wow this video with the commentary and the strategic plays and maneuvering was amazing. Just started risk a month ago and found this so fun too watch. Thank you!
Ended up watching the whole video! The twists and turns of the game plus your commentary and skill made it very engaging from start to end.
I have never heard of Risk until now, and weirdly i was drawn in by your elaborate commentary and gameplay even though i had no idea what was happening
So glad you liked it. There is lots to learn if you stick around.
Wow. I love playing risk, but seeing the strategy in this was mind boggling. The tiniest moves at the biggest impacts, good job on getting the win
Listening to you in the background while I'm working. Video is a bright spot in the day so far.
Awesome to hear. 🙏 So glad you enjoyed the show.
Black player got the 2nd place straight outta diplomacy! Great game, congrats on the result
Thank you. I'm very happy with it.
Working with me is usually better than working against me ;)
Had he waited any more turns and let them hit him a bit more he could’ve consolidated his entire positron in south and North America and crushed everyone
@@kittenconsumer9960 black had no access to North America due to the blizzards
Was a Risk board game junky as a kid. This brought me back. Thanks for this
🙏
First time ive seen your content, love the emotion and analysis, keen to see more
Thanks Steve.
I'm glad you enjoyed.
@@TheKillPeteStrategy i love how you respond to the comments 6 months after you released the video shows you're humble 🙏🙏 gonna go watch some more of your vids now gn
Your drive to success in this video is what attracted so many viewers ❤🔥
I must admit that i hate playing Risk with a burning passion. Never would have thought that watching others play (quite competently i might add) is rather enjoyable. Thanks for the entertainment and keep up the good work!
100%
I had no idea that there was a competitive Risk scene, but holy cow am I glad that there is. Even knowing this exists makes me feel happy inside.
White got a 30% win rate
I've played Risk once in my life and the game lasted 8+ hours and ended with us deciding it wasn't worth continuing since it was 6AM and we were tired. Never seen it played other than that, but I can say that the game plays better virtually with a time limit, that's for sure haha. Great video, love your energy.
The fact 2 ATTACKED you but still managed to win, WELL PLAYED, SIR.
🙏🙏🙏
22:50 is absolutely hilarious to me. Pete's passion for this game is infectious. Instant Sub, excited to see more
🙏🙏🙏
@@TheKillPeteStrategy I used to play Risk with my housemates everyday after work on the xbox and it was an absolute blast. I downloaded Risk last night and joined the discord, can't wait to get my friends involved. We all live in different countries now so this is perfect for us. thanks Pete
i'm new to risk and when i started this video i didn't think i would watch a lot of it, i ended up watching the whole thing!
it was really interesting and fun to watch! :)
Thanks Nano.
Glad you enjoyed the show!
I know this game a long time ago, but you're the reason that now I want to play it. You're so nice and your playing is amazing, love it
Just came here from watching an old Jerma VOD of him and a couple other streamers playing this game and I thought it was super neat + I felt a bunch of nostalgia for the original game. Glad to see that risk is still getting all of the love, support, and dedication from the community it deserves. Thank you to everyone in this community for keeping an old classic alive.
Its such an honour to be able to help bring risk into its destiny. Happy to help reignite the nostalgia.
It's so cool to see the creator is still hearting and replying to comments. Risk is something we always made up rules for with my friends so seeing how it's supposed to be played is such a different learning experience. Thanks for the upload, I loved it.
I wouldn't presume to tell you how it's supposed to be played 😉 only how it is played.
ey pete, ur way too humble. you make amazing content and you certainly deserve everything you got. Keep up the great content!
Hey thank you!
I spent a long time when I was younger being overconfident or a bit arrogant. As I have come to learn more I am better able to perceive the even greater amount of things that I do not. This is the source of the humility.
I'm grateful that you enjoy the show and the opportunity that I have been given to entertain and teach others.
8 months after posting the video and he is still replying to comments, that’s dedication. Congratulations on your win!
I love connecting with people!
I love this guy! I love his demeanor and his excitement about ~50 people watching the stream! Now I want to learn more about advanced risk strategies because what everyone did goes against what my intuition is and these guys are the best so their strats are probably the ones to look at.
Thanks! There's more to it than meets the eye
Your passion flows through the screen. I never even played risk before but this was recommended and I downloaded the risk app and started playing!
You’re a natural. Keep it up
Thank you!
Really nice, great explaining on your strategy. Didnt mind viewing the whole video. I enjoyed!
Haven't played this game before, or even heard about it, however watching this video was so entertaining and interesting. You have very humble and likeable personality!!
This has been wonderful. I love your attitude. This has been a great game, honestly kinda glad I stumbled upon you last night. This is wonderful. Good job man!
What a great game of Risk! Loved watching
this was great to watch, my dad loved playing risk with me when i was younger so this hits home for me.
I'm happy to tickle the nostalgia note a little bit.
Never played a game of risk in my entire life, was super lost watching this. But on the flip side as a big total war player I love seeing the strategic and tactical choices going through your head, something I relate to very much when playing TW. Watched the whole thing, makes me wanna learn more about the game.
I'm glad!
It’s 3am and I’ve just finished watching and I wanted to leave a comment just to say how much of a great video this was never seen this game in my life yet I watch an 1h 30min long vid of it?? just shows how entertaining of a content creator you are keep it up and don’t change ! 👏🏻
Haha thanks Devon. Hope I didn't keep you from your sleep for too long!
Really like your energy bro. Nice content. You got another fan over here 👍👍
Thanks Bubbs.
I'm having a lot of fun with it for sure.
I really enjoyed this, you seem very smart and seeing you get excited over the viewers made me so happy for you. Keep up the great work!
I have an average iq
But I do have a pretty good memory. And I get really into stuff so I work hard.
I never expected to see this kind of success with this project so it keeps coming as a fun surprise
I haven't played Risk since I was a kid, but watching high level play for the first time I can't help but think the game should be titled Risk Averse.
Congrats on the win though, I never knew it was played like this!
I like the pun Sir!
Got into risk one week ago and you're the first UA-camr that got me inspired to play more, your videos are super chill and so is your tone of voice. Never thought I'd ever watch a whole hour and a half of a board game surprisingly this was really fun thanks for the video.
Wow can't believe this video blew up so much! I'm really happy for you Pete and I have to say it's special that it's this video because of the way you fought hard and managed to win even though your game was almost ruined and I remember this at the time was your biggest ever stream on twitch with 100 viewers.
I can't believe this is happening.
I'm so grateful for you Fin, and all the people who have supported me.
Never thought I'd enjoy watching someone play risk this much. Very calming. Thanks Pete. You're seem to be a very likeable person. Much success to you 💯
🙏🙏🙏
As with many others, this randomly came up on my feed. I thoroughly enjoyed watching and was glued to my screen the entrire time. This really makes me want to play the game again. Keep up the good work!
Never seen this game or you before but stayed for the full game - great commentary and content. Very wholesome! Keep it up man 🙏🏼
🙏🙏🙏
Wow its crazy how this vid blew up compared to some of the other 70-80k views. Congrats man and great video.
And this Ladies and Gentlemen is how you entertain your audience with wholesome content and great commentary! Well Played🤝
Glad you enjoy it!
Been a causal fan of risk my whole life, and after watching this I think I’m going to try and get into it and be competitive. Would love to understand the game better and be better! I’m really happy this came across my recommended. UA-cam did something right
this is the video that introduce me to pete and this great community, god bless the algorithm
Welcome aboard!
Love these risk videos , just downloaded it on steam! Thanks for the gameplay
Thanks Blunt Blaster! Enjoy them and enjoy the game.
What a game, didn’t expect to watch the full hour and a half but it was way more entertaining than I anticipated!
Fabulous show. Not sure why the algorithm sent me here, but it was right. Really appreciated the commentary. Actually felt like I learned something about the game!
At first I wasn't sure. But dammit you're just so genuine that I can help but appreciate your love for this game. It's what's its all about. Have a passion and be open and friendly to share that passion so maybe it becomes someone else's.
That's a very nice thing to say. It's strange to me that everyone isn't geniune. After all its more work to be someone else than it is to just be yourself.
First time watcher. Played this as a board game years ago...loved it. Excellent match and well played.
Came across this by chance. Been playing tabletop games and risk for 25+ years. That was amazing to watch. Instant sub. Keep it up bro!!!
🙏
Pete being so excited by 100 stream views makes me so happy to see this video go over 1m. Congrats! Really enjoyed
I'm very blessed.
I had so many other things to do this morning on the counter but man... Can't skip a risk video of you! Enjoyed every moment! Love from France
I'm so glad you enjoyed the show!
