After our friendship didn't end from Monopoly we figured it was time to take the next step and play Catan, the ultimate game of variance and trade. Check it out!

This whole game was malf sips and Justin arguing over who should get resources while they all had one boot on the back of Ryan's head pushing him deeper into the dirt.
Ryan won the first episode and from then on the series became "bully Ryan" the game.
Rightfully so, since he still almost wins. Imagine if he was given free rein
Someone: Engages with the mechanics of the game
Everyone: "WHAT THE HECK MAN? EMBARGO'D! YOU'RE GONNA PAY"
I miss Erlin, Fergus, and Chyou, but the new guys are cool too
Glad Snook is still around.
Malf isn't new and sips has been around longer than NL in the UA-cam space. Was pretty big too used to be a part of the Yogg crew.
@@lolmanyeah1 first off this joke clearly went over your head. Second I'm pretty sure NL came about slightly before sips or right around the same time as he was starting his yogscast debut
@@StrelkiShifty why are you mad? I'm right.
@@lolmanyeah1 they were referring to the aliases in the catan ui.
Excited for another episode of the egg getting unfairly oppressed for being a natural born catan player
Malf threatening to take Justin's cat but give him a good life is the same thing as saying you'll kill someone and raise their kids as your own
I can't believe NL got that close to winning when the bandit took so many resources from him that game.
Those 6s didn't quit even if they were blocked half the time
Love the Catan vids. The mild arguing. The frustration, but ultimately fun competition. Keep making them! Thank you NL.
I mean I agree, but ... this episode was so hard to watch, everyone kept the robbers fixed on Ryan, they completely shut him off while their other opponents were going out of hand. There was no strategy behind it too, it must have been an inside joke to dunk on him this game.
MALF's sock idea already exists and it's a great one! Those socks don't wear out the heel or toes as quickly because they aren't put on the exact same way every time. The only drawback is the slight excess of fabric bunching. MALF is a true visionary, a hero of our time...
Throwing away all my old socks and buying all the same type was the best sock related move I've ever made.
So true
Never having to sort socks out is a quality of life improvement.
Also, black socks
Entirely underappreciated line by MALF (about taking Justin's cats): "I'm gonna give them a good life... but I'm gonna be the one that gives it to them."
Whenever MALF starts talking about some kid from his past, I have started to always be suspicious that he is telling a story about NL and just saying it was some dude bragging about his dad's porche
either that, or he's always talking about the same kid
I really like this catan gameplay. Definitely some top tier content
great to see NL hangin with CEO business mogul sips
Huge ups to egg for bringing my favorite series on the channel back. I can't wait to mald for the next hour because these professional entertainers don't know the meta to a game that came out when I was 3.
Lol!
I love how, withing 10 minutes of each game, there's a point where at least one player goes, "....So you have chosen death."
I'm here for every Catan video, loving it
my man ryan trades for sheep and then discards it when someone rolls a 7 instead of discarding from his steady supply of brick and log
This match is pure mobbing, holy robber
You're right - I've never seen someone get so robbed.
Sips refusing to give wheat for sheep, spending four wheat for a brick and then needing more wheat. What a great mind.
These are actually my favorite NL vids at the moment. The banter kills me, surprisingly entertaining for watching a screen that barely moves
NL is ruthless and butthurt and it's hilarious
The more I watch NL, the more I appreciate the older generations.
NL I love the Catan streams and vids, even if you get tired of making them please consider playing and uploading more every few months, the banter is fantastic and I enjoy watching tremendously!
i see hexagons in the thumbnail, and my brain lights up because I've just been gifted something incredible.
A toast to Sir Northernlion for this positively fantastic video.
Justin and Sips playing a whole other game than the others…
I love Canadian (+Justin) tabletop board games
We. Care. A. Lot
when enelle tried to build a settlement in that 5 sheep tile not noticing he's out of setties...i felt that.
I look forward to this upload every week
i fucking love salty NL
40:36 - NL jizzes his pants from perfectly timed 6 roll
I have just binged all of the catan episodes
love how sips being in the group is just normal now. such a lovely dynamic :)
I really enjoyed this episode!
53:39 if you just trade away shit here to get 4 wood and 4 brick, build four roads along the coast (crossing by malf's settlement) you could win
then again, this is just a board game, and checkmates are pretty hard to find.
your roads can't go through someone else's settlement
I thought the same thing!
I get you have an aversion to Cities&knights, but you might consider Seafarers. It's not really a complication to the game, it just gives you a bigger world and diversifies resource values (you can use sheep instead of bricks to build boats, which are essentially roads). Also the wildcard spaces, which are a slight complication, but only about a 5 second explanation worth.
Cities and Knights is amazing, idk what NL is talking about
Love the catan games
I think NL is good at hiding it well generally, but Catan might be one of the most salty games for him.
Love this crew! Y'all are great
I frikkin love this series 👍👍👍👍
Cities and knights is more complex, but really really fun
Imagine if nl went for the wood or brick port first
Then man had the best 2 first settlements I have ever seen imo with both relevant ports nearby. It blew my mind.
@@rqgqr5 and then he played it objectively poorly lol
I waited for a new episode! I'm so excited!
Also, toe socks are the freaking best. They are a step up!
I think there was some dice tampering this game lmao
how was 4 10 8 with road pointed at the wheat port taken last (with road pointed the wrong way) has to be one of the strongest spots you get 2 wheat spots and once you get the port you'll an insane amount of wheat coming in
Almost threw up when he threw away his one sheep, that he has no way of rolling for, instead of the wood and brick which he rolls easily
50:45 that hurts
Instead of hiring a professional baby sitter just keep inviting family members to stay over and when they do wait until your date time and give em the ol "oh hey were going to go to town real fast but the baby is already asleep sooo...." and bam you're free and all it costed was putting up with your family members for half a day
I love catan it’s all I want to watch tbh
End of game Ryan could have taken longest road (4 on the left side to get 13) if he traded some of his wheat or rock for a single tree he would have stolen longest road and won straight up
Can't build roads through someone else's settlement. Malf's got in the way. Even if NL built roads leading up to that spot from either side, it wouldn't have counted as one continuous road.
I have a firm conviction that the 5-9-10 and 9-10-11 were the right placements for NL.
ryan is obvious a total shark in this game. it must've been all that play in college lol
I don't get how NL can maintain his sanity with them clearly targeting him with the robber...
"Who's Andorra?"
NL is highly smooth brained about the expansion. Cities and Knights makes Catan considerably better. Definitely pick it up if your group wants to spice things up after a lot of plays.
Love these vids post these more pls
Nls pov was so frustrating to watch here he actually got screwed at every single opportunity and still nearly clutched it out only one turn away.
sips didn't trade once. who's the brain genius now? lmao
CATAN
The way NL's eyes roll back every time a 6 is rolled makes me thing he is climaxing xD
40:35 i also came
Cities and knights is the best expansion
POGGED
We Request More Catan
This is pure gold, I am laughing so hard! Here's an idea, play Civ, please!
when is the next it takes two episode dropping?
Does anyone know how many times Ryan was robbed? I know he wanted to check but the stats didn’t have that statistic and I’m not gonna go back through and count
re Expansions: I've never ever played vanilla Catan. Watching these videos made me realise, vanilla is almost a different game, especially if you add Seafarers to the mix.
Love these vids
Watching despite knowing nothing about catan and its rules
NL is the guy who would complain about his ice cream tasting too much...
Cities & Knights is great
Sips trades all the time but he does it on other peoples turns which is why the stats say he has 0 trades, it only counts on his turn. Trading on other peoples turns is much more friendly trading than trading on your own turn.
lol how is the 5 9 10 open for blue 😄
No way SIPS?!??!?!?!??
You’ve been gone for quite a while haven’t you, friend?
Umm... Pog E?
the moment you realize NL could have won with longest road at 54 min (just connect the two lines along the coast) Trade for 1 wood or 1 brick from stones & rocks and he's golden
Edit: it doesn't work as i learnt...
you can't connect through another players settlement
@@countvondutchessofwestmoor3974 thanks for telling me, I've been playing Catan wrong over a decade then 😂
I also almost threw up at Hardcore Henry how did enelle know
Sips just constantly putting the robber on NL's best tiles is pissing me off
@@Werevixen bro calm down they’re friends. Look at how close NL was to winning. If Sips didn’t do that he probably would have lost. Honestly, Sips gameplay is super logical and his social gameplay is pretty good too. Don’t be weird.
@@Werevixen bro chill I just want NL to win
Yeah man, that's why I don't have friends lmao
I swear every catan match its always ryan getting kicked in the balls
Initially I enjoyed these videos, but now NL doesn't even get to play the game cause the constant robber being on his shit
Spoilers on the batman movie nooo...
I’m not really that great at catan but couldn’t Ryan have gotten longest road and won the game by connecting on the left side?
No, it doesn’t count if an opponents settlement breaks up your road. It’s a good strategy to cuck someone too if they have the longest road
"I'm learning a lot about geopolitics here. It sucks to be ass."
Many people are saying this
Poggy
it's okay NL i thought the penguin joke was funny
roads ryan
😭
Fool of a took, also no idea what a took is
53:21
Should have traded away the rock and wheat to steal the longest road and win right then and there. 100% justin would have taken the bait
Wouldn’t have been possible for many reasons. Not nearly enough resources. There weren’t enough roads left. There was not enough space for roads either. He needed 8 more roads to overtake it!
Yes came here to say exactly that... NL literally missed lethal here. There 4 road left and he needs to build 4 on the shore line to connect his two parts into a 13 length road. And he had 3 wood and 5 bricks. He just had to trade all the rest for one wood and win the game... Would've been a super move!
@@IlyaInBerlin if i'm not mistaken, malf's settlement would break ryan's coastal longest road
This doesn't work for several reasons. Justin's road was length 12, NL's longest was 5. NL only had 4 roads left in his pool, and even if roads were unlimited, Wh+St for 2Br would only get NL 5 roads, which still isn't enough. Additionally, to take the longest road card, you need to exceed the current player's road length, which NL had no path for even if he had unlimited roads and enough brick and wood to afford them.
@@niceprofile-k6i Ah... Sad. I though it would work this way. My bad.
No way, man. Cities & Knights is by far the best expansion of all the Catan expacs. Baseline Catan is way too basic; there’s not a whole lot of strategy and very little to do.
It *needs* more complexity to be more engaging, otherwise it just devolves into, well, hex-based Monopoly: Essentially the outcome is determined by little more than RNG and positioning and nothing else, with players getting salty at each other because it’s super easy to just get totally shafted by said RNG or getting locked out of a spot, and then you’ll be able to just do nothing because nobody will trade with you.
C&K actually has ways to bypass all those issues, including resource shortages via the Market (and Gold spaces, if you’re using those), and has better interaction between players in terms of attacking their strategies via the expanded development cards and having solid reasons to work together via the Barbarian mechanic. And the city development stuff adds another later of stuff to compete over than just trying to snipe largest army and longest road, too.
The only thing I don't get about NL's game is how he randomly builds roads. He could have at least built another city at 51:28 by trading 2:1 with the bank
How could he have done two for one? He needs to have two of brick or wood to do that and he didn’t have two of either.
@@MetaLemonaide He traded with the bank for a sheep, and then built a road setting up a future turn, and immediately after says "wait im stupid." and then right after was trying to make a gag trade for the resources to build a city.
One of the worst games ever to curse out fair earth. Good video tho
NL is one wood or one brick away from longest road on his last turn, don’t think he realized:(
malf's settlement was in the way so he wouldnt have gotten longest road
Blue gets two best spots somehow. Green and Orange both avoid the 11, 4, 5. Good content but please gitgud
