Pump & Dump Duchy: A case study on why moles are fundamentally broken.
Is this really patched though? I finished the game two weeks ago (btw it is fantastic) and my build ended up being Rattle'em'off + draw whole deck t1. Once you have 19 cards out of 20 in hand, you can just spam Baptiste's +1 patience card at no cost and therefore gain infinite patience.
“Are you bad at Root? Of course you are” Me who has never played..
I thought you had to coalitions with the lowest scorer
It would be a convenient excuse to travel there for the first time, assuming i ever get some (four player) wins for the first time. Oh well.
I have mained Italy in diplomacy for years and vagabond strangly scratches that itch where you have to play everyone against each other and board communication is incredibly important picking a friend to trade with and beef up usely the weakest of the factions and attacking the other people nakes for the most fun i have playing vagabond
Idek how to play yet its so complicated
I hate how all the good and bad cards you mentioned for them are in the exiles and partisans deck lol
Love the wicked references at 7:08
I tried to do early damage againts woodland aliance as birds. Rolling 2x 3 and 0. Emotional damage hasn’t heal yet. 😢 But yeah, i felt that low birds count = sad birds.
otters losing trade posts doesnt matter, so long as they don't keep funds in the bank. The only play against otters is to never buy from them, but as soon as 1 opponent breaks that pact, the other dominoes will fall like a house of cards...checkmate.
Cat-astrophique says the marquise...
We miss you Nevakanezah! I keep humiliating myself playing badgers, pls help
I know you may not have enough time and I respect that but I really love your videos and can’t wait for the next one. You’re like the root prophet and your videos are priceless.
I must be an imposter or something, since I only played one game as the eyrie and lost due to tunneling on domination instead of just getting the victory points. I feel like in the later game they just multiply everywhere and can still overwhelm you with numbers and sheer number of cards since at least when I played, 4 out of 5 times there was a card to retrieve your fallen warriors and put them in the keep. Guess I still have a long way to go to really get the enjoyment of the game down, especially once I get past the base game and into the dlc.
Dunno how experienced your cats player was, but the gap between floor and ceiling is pretty significant. If you're looking to improve your own gameplay though, the best recommendation by far is to talk with your opponents about what you could've done better once the game is over.
now way I'm from Portland and just learning this game 😭

Yes, but slow.

Moles moles moles. This is the bestest thing ever, but my sister needs help with moles... So that i can turmoil on a fair ground in our family games.
"...Then, as if with malevolent satisfaction, the monkey's paw curled another crooked finger."
where did you go?
Wait, it's been 8 months already??
My buddies and I tried the new expansion and my Marquise playthrough got completely squashed in the beginning by the Twilight Council as they used broad starting presence as a spreading vector and proceeded to have 5 debate-offs wiping a vast amount off my map presence, my forge in mouse territory and the league of adventurous mice I was banking on 😭
Bats are undergoing a ton of changes atm, so we can't really take their current state as an indicator of future performance
@@Nevakanezah_ Expected as much. After we paused last nights match I looked up videos on the Twilight Counsil, most of them being a month old and to my surprise the rules were way different.
"Shark faction when", - Says Nev in chat. "Speak no more", - Answers Leder Games and creates "Ahoy"
Not killing anyone, you say? Well... We could maybe suppose that bird was asking for it... But that is probably for Arbiter to decide whether this reasoning is an excuse or not
Just got thru all ur guides and I gotta say they have all been fantastic. When are we getting more for the other factions?

Played Lizards last night and had a real hard time (surprise to no one). Two main challenges/questions: 1) Outside of securing the initial two gardens in the starting clearing, how do you recommend acquiring more? With cats and birds, building slots got taken up fast. Just existing with warriors was not enough of a threat to gain many acolytes via Revenge. 2) How do you deal with Sympathy? Given that the ability to crusade is limited by the outcast suit *and* requires acolytes, it felt like the WA could pretty freely bomb my most valuable clearings without much recourse.
1) Absolutely play with advanced setup if you can. For a slew of reasons, playing on basic setup functionally leaves the lizards an entire turn behind the rest of the table. Other than that, focus recruiting on one specific second clearing ASAP, and hope that no one fights you for it. Myself, I prefer to stick to having only one garden per clearing if i can manage it, because you risk less and clog the board more. 2) You and WA abhor each other. Lizards can't handle sympathy, but they can sanctify bases to invalidate WA's biggest strength. If you can't convince the WA not to start a forever-war, then you can convince the rest of the table to feed you acolytes and hated outcast suits that'll make their lives a living hell.
@Nevakanezah_ Thanks! For me, WA+Liz was a little un-fun because of this sort of mutually assured destruction. It felt like the Lizards couldn't really get online until the WA committed a couple bases so that you could know where is safe to exist. Looking forward to playing them more, either way.
Theres a few matchups that do this forever-war thing. The way around it is convincing the other person that you aren't the only two people playing, and you'll both drown if you fight.
These videos are awesome. How about posting some games with your friends?
I've considered it, but then I'd have to use language that won't get me demonetized
This was super cool as someone unfamiliar with this VB strat! I wonder if its niche because you need to rely on opponents not attacking you as a defenseless target (which players tend to avoid as it scores 0 pts)
Partly yes, but the bigger concern is that you're spending a lot of time setting up a strategy that has a lot of RNG dependence and doesn't score that much faster than everyone else.
@Nevakanezah_ In this case Questing wasn't ever an option for you, but would that be something you pursued in this strat as well? Or does it use too many items to be effective?
It's too damn expensive, and people are always willing to craft coins if they can. I might use it early on to mill the deck a bit, but only if I had extra actions going to waste
@Nevakanezah_ Interesting! So it'd really only be a niche situation of the quest matching your location but the cards not matching for you to even go for it.
Usually mole end game becomes a brain drain. Then theres this final turn hahahaha
Sometimes the drain is more ethical than it is mental.
By not seeing Riverfolk in a burst-to-win outline, I deduce that: - Either they can not burst at all - Or they can do it from less that 10 And I don't know which is scarier. Enjoyed the video a lot. Thank you immensely!
Both are true, and sadly it depends entirely on your opponents.
You can easily balance games of root by giving the player who is struggling more cards per turn. Start by +1 and see how he/she does it. Or, you can give cats +1 point for things that they build. This is also true for all the other factions. Make up a list of what works for a ballanced game. Or just watch this video and git gud! :D
That's a pretty solid idea, actually. I might worry that it increases the cognitive load on people's first few games, but if they're not struggling with the cards too much, it adds the right level of spice.
Consilidqting Might be a good idea in the classic setup, but definetely not in the advanced setup, wich you should totally use! And that “Might” about classic setup, is a BIG MIGHT!
Who would ever allow Cats advanced setup? They already are broken good early game and they got BUFFED? Like it’s so expensive and boring to try and attack their buildings and they have them 4 extra warriors on the base xD
I'll give you credit - you're the only person i've ever met who felt that cats were overpowered.
Otters rock in theory but as you point out, at a serious game (and because the victory condition is too easy to rush) the best strategy is to literally not play the game and idle dividends
I hated export from the tutorial because my game theory training told me “spend an action, a fund, AND a card that could be bought….and convert a warrior that could fight and defend me into 1 fund”… that’s fucking awful as I have to pay to actively convert a useful warrior into a useless fund (also how does turning one of your own company’s warriors into money work in-universe
Hey pleaseeeee can you show us in a short video all clockwork 2 trait cardz pleaseeeee❤
Odds are bad, I'm afraid. I've never touched clockwork, and I'm not sure how much demand there is for strategy info on it.
The despot sucks. Build is the easiest way to turn oil because you don’t have the action economy and clearings get built on VERY fast
If you get to 35:40-36:45 of this video you have reached gold.
Cards don’t work! I can build as many movement cards and don’t get any extra moves. This faction really could use 2 extra warriors so they aren’t horribly passive
Hi, congratulations on the video, really exhaustive. I wanted to ask you where you found the images (I guess png) of the root characters. I also love ROOT and I have an Italian channel, only that to make beautiful videos I'm going mad by dint of "cropping" the png one by one. My goal with ROOT (in my small way), is to grow the Italian community, but at the moment there are not many resources, unlike the community that is very large but still fragmented. If you can help me I would be very grateful; have a good day.
I've assembled my asset list over the last 2 years following much the same agonizing process of cropping images. I started by grabbing some of the community's fanfaction asset packs, and expanded on it by scraping together whatever other images I could get my hands on. I'm not opposed to sharing my collection if you want, but I'll ask that you link me your root YT channel so I can do my due diligence in trying to combat bootlegging.
Update: nvm i found it www.youtube.com/@ludoKarun Send me a friend req on discord and I can hook you up
@ Yes, it's my channel. Now I'll try to send you the friend request on discord; I guess the name is the same as you have on RUclips.

And late next year, we can truly have an ALL-BIRD Root game! Eyries, Corvids, the Adventurer, and the upcoming Goose Vagabond! AND CUTE DUCK HIRELINGS. I originally came here just to write the above, and then discovered the 2nd half of the vid was Wingspan. How convenient, as tomorrow I plan to play it for the "first time" tomorrow (I did play a practice game of 2 rounds yesterday). So this was a nice primer before I actually go find the PDF of the rules. So thanks for the serendipitous help! Even if I don't win tomorrow, as long as I get the Blue Jay, I'll have a good time. But after I saw with my own eyes how BIG the Bird deck is.... pray for me. Only reason I'm even playing Wingspan is because it has been brought to the game board group I go to, so, many, times. Figure I finally try it. I predict I'll only play it once though, as I tend to stick my nose up and snub "multiplayer solitaire" games. I THRIVE on interplay, those are "real" games to me. And messing with my opponents is fun.
Honk, ban the power 4, honk.
@@Nevakanezah_ You mean the crows, right? I won my first ever full game :). The hosts also brought out the expansion that had nectar (and a crapton more birds). No Blue Jay for me, that they placed a little Blue Jay statuette to placate me :P. I played very well. The big point generator for me was a bird that let me tuck birds behind every other bird in the same row. That took awhile to setup for big profits.
The power 4 is all the cards that give you 2 of something from a different biome. iirc it's ravens, killdeer, and one of the gulls.
Best content on RUclips
Also price matters, if otter sets high price you just dont buy, thats it.
All the players I know just reiquire immediate return of funds as the terms of the trade. Tbh if I see otter not return funds I just wont buy from him.
