What bird would win in a 1v1 fight? Crow, or Duck?
The crow would start the fight. I saw a crow start a fight with a cat the other day. The duck would totally win though, they’re bosses
I know hawks are afraid of crows, so I'm going with Crow!!
I have had chickens for ten years, predator birds were always a problem. Got ducks a couple seasons back, finding dead crows in pond.
I don't think a duck has a waepon like a crowbar. The only thing Ducks can do is to duck the crowbar. So, I pick the crow!
I really like those birbs who can switch between habitats. Gives you great options to adjust your gameplay and strategy, especially at the beginning of the game when you want that extra food token and you can save egg costs! You have to plan at least 1-2 moves in advance tho. I also love the Europe expansion with the blueish ability birds for the end of round. Will definitely get the Oceania expansion soon!
I love that strategy too :) those birds rock!
Great video really helpful, that last tip about using birds to perform opposite actions in slots on the board is amazing!
So glad to hear it helped you!
Great video. Tip number 5 is definitely the most important one imo. What I try the most in my games is to put "food powers" birds in my eggs and cards row. This way, I barely ever need to use the food row. Egg row is so important since the eggs are worth points and the cards row is good if you have solid "tuck cards" engine.
Pink powers can be bad or powerful depending of three things : Player number, the action probability and at which stage of the game you play it. Don't use these cards in 2-3 player games, but in 4-5 player games it is really good. Use the one with popular actions like "everytime someone lay eggs" v.s. the ones that are more rare (hunting birds for example). Also, it is good to play these in the first two rounds and less exciting at round 3 and 4.
Good point! I truly love this game. Its so simplistic and yet so depth filled... Great thoughts and I totally agree with you on this.
Great tips! Several things I've never thought of after probably 20 games.
I just got Wingspan but I’ve only played the solo mode and was beat everytime against the Automa. I was heavily focused on End-of-Round Goals and Bonus Cards. But after watching this video I switched up my focus on building my engine (using your tips on card placement) and now I could beat the Automa, while still reaching Goals and fulfilling Bonus cards (and that was super satisfying).
I believe in you :D
Thanks, LOTB!! I really need these tips because I have one friend who ALWAYS beats me at Wingspan and now I’m going to try your tips. Love them.
Yay! hope you enjoy :)))
Just got into wingspan, glad you have a video for it
This was great. I've played about 10 games so far and didn't know about the crows and ravens.
Glad to help you become aware :)
Tip #5 is excellent! Thank you. Now I can win more games.
Love Wingspan, great video.
Thanks for watching!
As usual very good understanding of the games you talk about evidenced by the strategy tips. Keep up the great work! Thank you!
Glad you like them!
This helped me out a lot!! Thank you! I have subbed.
Great tips, great humor and cute to look at. 😀
Thank you, now to put it all into action!
You got this!
Nice video.
I agree with some of your tips but also disagree with others.
E.g. regarding your tip 4 "stay away from pink ability cards": Obviously pink ability cards are way stronger in high player count than in low player count. I would totally agree on not picking them up in a two player game. However if you are playing a 4-5 player game there are some pink ability cards that are just insanely strong. For example "get an egg when someone else takes eggs" is insanely strong in the midgame when you are not planning on taking a lot of eggs yourself.
Also here some tips from my side:
Try to build an actual engine in one row of your board that you can abuse in the lategame. In theory every row can be used for this however in the basegame specifically the egg-laying-row is by far the strongest.
This engine should have brown abilities only that grant you points and you can abuse in the lategame for a ton of free points per turn. Keep in mind that eggs give points but food and cards usually dont. Hence placing the engine in the middle row (eggs) is strong. Engine in top is usually super bad (because there arent a lot of options how to generate points with your food), but an engine in the bottom can be insanely good as well. Last week I cracked my highscore (132pts) with an engine in the wetlands that gave me the option to tuck 8 cards per turn alongside two pink birds in other habitats that gave me free eggs when other players take eggs - average of 9-10 pts per turn for the last 6 turns is just broken.
I totally agree that bonus cards (as well as round end bonus) should not be overrated. In my highscore game I had 4 points in round end bonus and 3 points in bonus cards.
Great thoughts, and I appreciate you commenting them!
Thanks. Very helpful! love the video!
GREAT tips esp the 5th one. Thanks
Thank you so much! I am glad you enjoyed .)
Thank you. These tips will help a lot.
Great video! Loved the tips!
I've been learning some of these strategies through repeated play. I think that the ramping strategy makes a lot of sense but I've noticed that some small cost birds have very different victory points, so make sure you're ramping up the victory points by the end of the game!
Also I can vouch for the Raven/Crow strategy. I put these guys in my prairie and was able to create eggs and food at the same time allowing me to play some great cards that came into my hand. I got almost ninety points that game!
Appreciate all the tips!
Thanks for the tips!
Thanks, very useful. I will try these out in the next game.
Thanks for the bonus tip!
Thanks for the tips! So helpful
Love wingspan on the switch!
Oo me too :)
Thanks, LOTB, for the Wingspan tips for beginners - looking forward to the game-playing success. happy holidays.
Thanks so much! glad it helped!

Awesome! Thanks man!

Very helpful and informative......THANK YOU! My wife and I just started playing Wingspan and I was looking for some ideas on general strategy. The tip about using "opposite actions" is brilliant, and I'll definitely incorporate that into my play.
So glad i could help :)
Just started playing this game and your tips are extremely helpful!
Glad you like them!
Greats tips and strats for the birds
SparkletheBunny thank you! Wingspan is one of those games every time you play you can always learn more!
Thank you for the tips! Great video, right to the point and very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Nice job as usual, Sam!
Thank you! Good to see you guys here!
I love the expansions!!! I love Nectar!!!💓
I also love nectar! I want to cover it in the channel!
Thank you!😀
Great video, interesting to watch, not too long, and really helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
People overlook pink abilities a lot imo. I'm one of those players that used to have a full stack of brown powers to build the most powerful engine for myself.
But I've realized (especially with more players playing, even with only 2 or 3 players playing though some are very useful) that these pink powers CAN be very useful, especially the 'when another player lays eggs' archetypes. Everyone is going to be laying eggs intermittently, as they require them for playing birds and taking other actions, and especially end of game people tend to start activating their grasslands engines more and more.
The great benefit? Passive income of eggs (or others things based on other pink powers). This can really save a lot of actions, especially early game and allow you to spend more time playing birds etc, especially if you're collecting a crucial dice or saving a turn on playing an egg to play more birds, and gets your engine going that much faster. Of course this strategy, like most in wingspan, is situational. It will vary in results every time based on everyone else's boards and cards. But I often overlooked pinks for browns when I first started playing, and think they've gotten more potent with newer expansions as well.
Awesome video, thanks!
Anytime! :)
This was really helpful for me as I’m getting started at thinking more strategically. Thanks so much!!
You're so welcome!
Great video !! Very entertaining and helpful!! 😎
Handy tips, esp putting birds with abilities from a habitat different to where they're placed.
Thanks you! I agree. That is the most important for a reason. So so good
Love your content!
Thank you so much! :)
Bit late to this one, but so glad I watched! Good tips for this game and it’s my wife and I’s favorite game to play together
great video. also quality quarantine haircut, all around impressive stuff
Thank you very much! My wife is a hairstylist. It helps 🔥
Tip 5 was clutch!
Glad to help :)
Thx, great 2 last tips👍🏻
Glad to help!
Good tips, thanks
Thank you Sam for your videos. It is really great to get tips when you haven't played the game yet. Your channel was advised by "Before you play" . They were right !
Wow I am so happy they sent you over :) welcome and thank you so extremely much for the kind words 😊
great tips--thank you for sharing!
Glad I could help!
Got this game for Christmas. My husband beats me every time. Thanks for the tips.
Thanks a lot for this, I seriously need it because I have never yet managed to win Wingspan despite playing, well it must be over 30 games 😭😂 I think I do tend to focus on the bonus cards too much....but you're right, some birds are worth way more alone. We had a crazy game the other week where a friend managed to tuck over 30 cards behind one of their birds - insane! 😲
Holy moly!! 30 wowza, yes theirs bonus cards can help... but definitely don’t make them your whole strategy. I think I just watched your root play through and enjoyed it a lot. You guys do great work.
Thanks for the tips, cheers.
You bet!
good info, thanks
Great video! I played the boardgame for the first time this weekend at a friend's house and immediately got the digital version to practice. I feel like I know the strategies and I have a good grasp of the game but I'm still never scoring above 80. Gives me a great reason to play more though!
Hey! Practice totally makes perfect. I remember my first score was 57 and now my most recent score was 108. It can truly depend on what you see and the opportunities available. Have you always been mixing brown abilities with tracks that are different?
@@LordoftheBoard Yes, I definitely try to do that :)
Such a helpful video! I've been working through why I just can't get the points that others seem to get. Tip #5 makes perfect sense! I can't wait to see my friends' faces when I pull the dub on them! LOL
Great tips!
Great video man!
Thank you Isaac! :)
thank u. helped me a lot!
You're welcome!
Thanks for the tips! I look forward to more tips on Wingspan, perhaps the expansion?
Soon! I don’t own either :( hoping for Christmas!
Thanks for the tips
Of course! Hope some of them helped! :)
I don't agree about the pink cards, foremost the one you showed. Getting an egg extra usually is a good thing. All the time players are laying eggs, so you can get 1 or more of these eggs. Otherwise, some pink cards are really awful. But the pink card thing depends on your strategy. Also, I don't agree about playing "exchanged powers" like a draw-card bird on a Food row. Depends on your strategy. Usually I play egg cards on lay egg row and it works finely, giving extra resources I look for. Usually I play the crow on that row too, when I can immediately change it for food.
I think your first advice is really great! Bonus cards use to hold your development.
One extra thing I would tell is to calculate how many point you would earn in the final bird frames that cost 2 eggs, specially by the final turns, meaning that you will lose 2 points to play a bird, and sometimes you can make more points just activating laying eggs (for me, the most important row at the end of the game).
Pink cards improve with the number of players. Way more activation happening when there's 4 other players compared to a game with only 1 other player
Awesome tips
helpful stuff for sure thanks
Glad it was helpful!
I've heard raven and crow are overpowered. Would it be better to take these out of game to ensure it's a bit more fair and not just dependent on if you're the lucky one to get these cards?
thanks from Estonia!
You're welcome! :)
Good. Thanks.
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Great tips for beginner, me, especially tip #5.
Glad you enjoyed it! Yes number 5 is HUGE
Thanks 'Lord of the Board', this was of some help 👍 I only say 'some' due to myself finding Wingspan through 'steam' as an online game rather than board, which translates differently so please forgive me 😌
Glad I could help
Playing this game on Saturday, thanks for the tips.
Good luck! and glad i could help!
@@LordoftheBoard I won the first game lol
@@Nabashin88 SWEET! Great work :)
Thanks for tip 5
You’re very welcome :)
Thanks for the video! I recently got hooked on this game. Lets see how I do after this :)
Hope you enjoy it!
Thx 4 the tips
You got it!
Wingspan is one of my favorite games to play but I seem to never win so I will try these strategies! Crows huh!
I hope these help!!! 😊
Interesting tips, thanks :)
Of course! Hopefully they helped on some way!
Cool video bro thanks for the tips 👍
Youre welcome! glad they could help out!
@@LordoftheBoard thanks 😊
Yay I love wingspan
kaytie rose thank you :) I’m glad you enjoyed
Thanks man
So fun!
I’ve been playing the Steam version! These tips were very helpful nice vid
Glad to hear!
we watched this today!! great ideas! I always lose. Always. I felt sad I let my husband watch because the strategies were new to us. ;)
Good stuff!
Thank you very much!
Newly subbed here, you do great and most of all very helpful videos
Hey! Welcome. So very happy to have you and I appreciate the kind words! This has turned into such a fun place and it better now that you are here.
Really love the music ;)
Thank you!
I love Woodpeckers, Ravens, and Crows!
I also love woodpeckers :) good choice!
Nice!!!
Thank you so much :$
Great tips! 👍🏻👍🏻 The raven is the most OP card in the game, if it’s in your starting hand it’s almost an automatic win. Another tip I think is good is to set up a good egg drawing engine, so by round 4 you are just racking up tons of points by taking the lay eggs action.
Always a good strategy! I hear they are semi nerfing eggs with the new expansion boards. I’m interested to see that!
Lord of the Board Yes! The European expansion addresses this issue, I'd highly recommend it. It makes the egg strategy not as OP and gives you more options.
Mitch Lopez yes excited to try it out. 😊😊
@@LordoftheBoard The european expansion addressed this issue a little bit, but laying egg remained the usually go to strategy. In the upcoming Ocenia expansion, they are adding a new food ressource, new dices and new and changed boards. They buffed the food and cards rows and nerfed the egg row. They also are adding a new mechanic that you can spend a food token to re-roll the birdfeeder or even re-draw a card (not 100% sure for this one) making the excess food more uselful.
@@BenjaminH_48 In the wetlands there are opportunities to reset the bird tray. So you'll get your choice of a few new birds.. or a blind draw from the top of the deck, of course. It's a nice way to hamper automa if you see they have some nice choices on offer and you need new cards or have a nice engine working in the wetlands.
Great tips 😍🪶🦩
I glad I could help :)
Great tips and yes, the crows and ravens are op.
Yes indeed! I hope i get them at the start of every game. Hehe
Great video, Sam. The 5th tip is key. You definitely want that synergy of gaining two core action benefits from a single habitat, which ties into your bonus tip, those crows/ravens are MONSTERS! The latest expansion nerfs the grasslands (egg) row just a bit, but not enough that I'd discourage those birds or change the meta too radically. Great job, again. I like the artistic shots you peppered throughout too. Keep up the great work.
Very true! Youre the bomb. Thanks for visiting my little community!
