    My theory: You capped next to his 4, which he wanted to cap on and he had a gamer tantrum. Most likely it was a kid or teen or an adult with anger issues. Either way, they're probably baby-brained.

      Yeah I think Pete is trying to apply logic to an illogical situation here. If I’ve learned anything from Risk it’s that even the tiniest thing will piss off players and cause them to sue out. Yellow probably left that game feeling proud of himself for “making pete lose” for some tiny perceived slight.

    • @rockstermaniac
      @rockstermaniac 6 дней назад +8

      Also possible that he literally didn't have any good caps since the maj of his troops were orient (I mean we can see most of the rest of the board) and he decided that if he let Pete have anything he'd ultimately not be able to fight his way out of the Orient since it is a pocket behind Pete so he hoped he could claim Italy and keep Pete off bonus simultaneously long enough to set and roll Pete's cap.
      A stupid plan... but at least it's a plan...

      It's a little sad that your mercy lost you the game. Taking Pete's cap was probably the win. Putting yourself in the cucaracha position just made you look very threatening even though you were being super nice. Eating that suicidal pink stack didn't help either.

  • @AjConnell
    @AjConnell 5 дней назад +4

    I see what yellow was doing and I’ve done similar strats in the past. He saw how good your cap was, so he wanted to steal it. He had a lot of material behind you, so his goal was to destabilize you and force you to use your cap troops to stop him. Then he’d cucaracha you with his cap stealing the pocket. Works on low skilled players who don’t keep troops on cap, unfortunately he ran into a gm. My guess is from there based on his skill level he got mad you weren’t doing what he wanted so he noob slammed you

  • @generalleon2038

    First turn after yellow broke you with no hesitation, it was a major hint that he is behind you. Second turn when we learned that he isn't in Italy, it was revealed that he is behind you and he wants to fight you for the pocket. So he cannot let you have a bonus. I think you should have really targeted removing yellow from outside, guaranteed you would hold deneric turn 4 or even turn 3.

It was a fun game where my highest ranked opponent played like how I used to in prog, survive until an opportunity arose to make some kills by keeping multiple different positions alive for as long as possible. It did not work when neither he nor I had a set on 4 but I went before him and no one killed me so he was my first kill the game! Btw, now I am way more aggressive in games and have a much higher win rate.

    @FreePete, at 3:41, yellow fortified from the 4 directly next to your capital to the territory that ended up being its capital, I thought right away that it is was the capital and I think you were just looking away and missed that because it wasn't until 11 minute mark when you went exploring that you confirmed it was the capital location. I am a novice, but was the fortify at 3:40 a clear indication that he was fortifying his capital? I thought so because he had previously broke you from Italy and it seemed clear that he was then fortifying his capital.

      The fortify doesn’t really mean anything. His cap could have been anywhere in orient or not, you never know lol. it’s probably obvious to you cuz you saw it from the thumbnail. If not then I apologize for assuming but it’s not a great indicator of a cap. Yellow could have fortified the four in to try to set up to take orient or to defend it or to start to group his troops. Even so finding his cap there didn’t really mean too much since pete had a feeling it was interior. I think he just wanted to confirm

What he did was saw that the most attractive area of the map would be hotly contested by you should he choose to cap on one of two good caps he was presented with. So he decided on turn one that you would be his enemy and he would try to kill you in order to secure the pocket. He wasn't a good player, but I don't think this was a bad play.

    I think he capped where he did intentionally in an attempt to take and hold orient. He would then use those extra troops to take your capital.

I don't think he planned on purple dumping all those troops in there, though, which then ruined his entire game.

Only thing he forgets is that the game has more players. He does not have to be the one killing you. By getting both strong he could have a better chanse.
    ALSO, he might think you knew him being there and so you would hold him off bonus. So he hits you befor you can hit him.
    But in the end he loses both games. So i think he could not look further that that.

    Yellow had an okay mindset... their cap would easily break pete and defend his own bonus and win... he just failed to account for pete getting a different bonus where he quickly decided to go to war over realizing he would lose immediately if pete grabbed a bonus before he could finish his corner... he lost and threw the game... but the planning was there.
    He also didn't let pete hold the first bonus because he knew where petes cap was and figured pete would work on his bonus his cap was in, see his cap, and break yellows italy.
    So while yellows play didn't work out, he was correctly assuming pete would turn hostile after seeing he capped behind him and banked his entire game on preemptively attacking him since he had the more defensive cap placement.

      ​@FreePete I'm only defending the play had a rationale, not the play itself. He does guard his bonus because you don't have the ability to break him through Africa. Since almost every player takes the bonus their cap is in, he predetermined that's what you would do... and had you done that he would break you each round with his cap and work on his bonus.
      His play got thwarted as you soon as you took an outside bonus because it would take multiple turns for him to take his.
      The rationale was there, he just didn't think of the worst case scenario of you not caring about the bonus your cap was in right away... and that threw off him breaking with his cap and working on his bonus.

    Hi Pete, I've been watching your videos now for around 2 years and I really like the new largest map videos you've been putting out and I'm a big fan of the Europe advanced games.
    I'd like if you could bring this topic up in one of your videos. I think I remember you saying something like this in one of your older videos, but this occurred to me again recently.
    I don't play Europe Advanced much, because I have mobile, and speed issues makes it not a very viable option, even with a 2-minute timer. Also, there are many times when it would be nice to have a shorter timer to speed up the game for standard turns. Imagine a place where there was a 30-second turn timer but each attack added a second. Or a 60-second turn timer or a 90-second turn timer but each attack adds a second. That way you could speed up each standard turn but when it matters you have the time to do what you need to.

      Yellow chose to take himself down and take me with him from him very first move.
      So he's either and idiot, which is the charitable take, or it's targetting.

    The biggest issue is White not capping on the 2 in russia. Russia was a 3 point hold

    Yellow capped behind you so you couldn't take the pocket and then tried to keep you off bonus so you would quit.
    Horrible noob play
