Hahahaha I’m not as smart as I seem 🤣🤣

Got it. I’ll do my best to keep putting these out as fast as possible!

🤣🤣🤣 I didn’t even realize that

On the turn where you wasted the road, couldn't you have traded for Ore into a City?

I couldn’t have, I didn’t have enough for the win.

Hey, i play catan at home, not professional like you :D What is meant by "Is it game?" I can’t figure it out...

@@chamaleon2184 "Is it game" = "Does it win me the game?", at least in the Bridge world.

Oh shoot it’s you! Thanks for subscribing!

Wait this wasn’t streamed on twitch? It looked like twitch haha

Thank you! Why get robbed unnecessarily when you don’t have to?

That always happens to me lol get to 6 or 8 points then everyone picks on you or doesn't trade 😂

Can you explain in more detail about this? Not sure I understand, and must have missed it in the video

@@jestes7 at the very end of the video

Great job!!! Love the enthusiasm!

Exactly. Also, integrated income over the long run wins. The faster you get cities the more dev cards you can buy over the long run.

Thanks! I’ll need to post more first lol

thank you :)

Thanks for always watching! I’m glad these are helping you improve!

First time I’ve ever heard someone say playing games with strangers is more chill than playing with friends.

Awesome! I’m glad you’re liking this one so much more :)

Thanks for dropping by! Glad to see some twitch viewers here!

Yea I know that, I’m just saying it takes an option away for me to win.

Thanks Treeck!

Watch out tomorrow ;). I'll be posting again.

Precisely! Well done Jake!

😂😂 love ya Ben

Glad you are! Only more to come!

I’ll do my best!

Great thoughts and reasoning! Well done!

Will do! Thank you for encouraging me!

Awesome! Will do!

Thanks Derrick, I’m really trying to work on my upload consistency and frequency. I appreciate your kind words.

Well said! Forgot to say that on stream.

Glad you enjoyed it so much!

Thank YOU for watching!

Hahaha I make a lot of mistakes when I play, especially under time pressure

Well done! Getting to the semis for your first tournament is great man! Thank you for sharing :)

Nicely done! It’s always tough but doable.

Hahah OWS < BWS

It is a flexible strategy! You’re totally right.

Try looking at Colonist.io!

You’ll need to purchase Catan universe to play on different maps ($5 usd) or play on colonist.io

Great thinking! I still disagree for all the reasons I said in the video, but that’s what the comments are for. Thanks for trying the quiz!

I think the city makes you less of a target bc half that table already have city's. Also it becomes very difficult to completely block you if you build a city bc your still producing quite a bit of wheat on the other tiles

you dont need protection from knights though, you have 3 good numbers you city up, you need the production, because the value of your production in a port strat is shit. The wheat is like .5 of a card for you. so the only way to keep up with the others is by more production, so if you get one of your numbers you wanna get the most ressources. Like we can list the most likely values of the cards for this setup. Wheat is 0.5 card Brick is 1 card sheep is roughly 1 card. Wood is 2/4 cards. Ore is 2/4 cards. if you dont use the ore you got for a discount (like 1 brick or something because of another human player) you are throwing away 2 cards you need to get, or even more. you need to get that city so you have enough wheat to counterbalance the value drop because you lack the ore. Also from what do you wanna defend yourself against. From a knight on the 8? while 2 other numbers give you a wood or an ore. like if we translate the cards to rolls you basically need less numbers to roll for you if you get a city, also if your 8 is blocked, you still have 2 other numbers that give you a free ressource, in a way you are pretty much unblockable because you got the city. In a way, with the city you are able to compete with the others because you now have access to all ressources without too many rolls. if a 10 rolls you get a card, if an 8 rolls you get 1.5 cards. the city is just too important and not worth delaying for a useless dev card. You wont be able to buy more of them, or even a city because you wont be able to get enough cards anymore.

Hell yea you had the same strategy in mind :DD

Hahaha thanks Aron!

I typically always stream on weekends and Wednesday - Friday I also stream. You should be able to see a stream schedule on my twitch.

I immediately feel like a fool! lol

Thank you Tomas! I appreciate it ❤️

Yes!!! Great job!

Hopefully I can post again by the end of the week! I’m going for 2 videos in a week.

Haha I just get lucky

The getting the 9 brick which is the best brick in the game allows me to get some very good trades. I didn’t think it would be too hard to get to the wheat port with the 9 brick, so there’s no rush to go get a free road on the 9-10-11. Lastly, the double sheep is pretty good paired with the wheat port for buying dev cards.

To add on what dylon said, with the 5910 it's easier to road settle, in contrast with the 91011 double road settle. Also more production(worst case you can pad some trades with extra sheep).

Exactly! Great reasoning! Thanks for answering the quiz!

@@DyLightedCatan whatever to support my man!

However, he only had the wheat port . So he kinda needed the wheat production first over brick/sheep. They trade at 4:1 whereas wheat at 2:1 Also blocking a spot means nothing cause he has 2 more tiles and he wasn't a threat till later half of the vids.

Haha that's super cool! I Wouldn't be surprised if you knew him but I don't want to say in a public KZfaq comment for privacy reasons. If you're in poker facebook groups like upswing or jonnievibes you've probably seen him around.

Thanks! Every comment helps a bunch!
