Thanks so much for this playlist. I couldn’t sleep last night and ended up binging almost all of the episodes. I’ve played the game physically and on TTS a half dozen times but watching these videos gives me much more of an understanding of broader strategy. Maybe I can move on from Difficulty 0 soon 😅
Glad to be of help! Good luck with the game, and with moving on to higher difficulties! Definitely don't worry too much about rushing it, though, as long as you're having fun.
Keeper is my favorite so far, including thematically. Just building up a wall of wilds and smashing anything that comes close. Close contenders for theme are Lure and Ocean of course
I'm definitely going to try to do more strategy videos! I have a few more ideas for right now, and will be doing strategies for more spirits as they come out on the app.
Man these videos are amazing. You should continue onto over the board and not wait for them to come out on app because who knows how long thatll take lol. Also make some tier lists, either how good they are true solo or even your favorite spirits to play. Great content!
Thank you so much! I am definitely considering some options for expanding to Horizons/JE before they come out on the app, but one of the problems is I'm much, much less experienced with all those spirits. As such, I want to get more practice in and/or pick the brains of people who have played a lot more of the newer content, and I just haven't managed to do that yet. Similarly on the tier list point, I have ideas of how strong are/how much I like all the app spirits, but I don't know that I can realistically expand it too much to Horizons/JE at this time. So any tier list from me (at least in the near future) is just going to be the first 12 spirits.
Probably not, I think I'm going to try and make strategy videos focused on other aspects of the game for a little while. I've got a lot of games left for my level 6 matchup series still as well! When Horizons (and eventually JE) comes out on the app, I'll definitely try to cover those spirits, though!
Thank you! I believe it was in the Jagged Earth rules, but there's an errata that you don't resolve an event turn 1 (discarding the top card of the event deck instead). This is how it's implemented in the app version.
What an op spirit, thanks for the guide! I wonder how Keeper would do paired with Wildfire considering the blight restrictions - would they each have their own lands ridiculously under control or would Wildfire’s blight placement mess with Keeper’s plans?
I think those two would actually combo well! They both like to set up areas that they control while letting Dahan handle other lands (with defense, of course). Giving Wildfire more powers to extend their reclaim cycle is awesome as well, and Keeper can benefit from +1 damage easily. The biggest issue I can imagine is lands that are already blighted, as neither of them can easily grow into those.

I'll comment on every one of these videos. I love them. You make us understand the game so easily. I won most of my games after watching your videos.
Really enjoy your basic strategy videos. Would love to see you do more

@@kalennoreth I would love to see basic solo videos for Snake and Green, if you’re looking for ideas.
One of my favorite spirits! wilds are so nice.
They can really take control of the game in a way few others can!
Wow ! The guy can place a lot of wilds. Looking forward to try this spirit. Thank you for the video ! 🌱🌳
Indeed! All the wilds can really be a lot of fun to lock out the invaders. Hope you enjoy playing them!
Your tutorials are fantastic! A really great understanding of the game. I love these!

I love enticing! Great for interrupting builds with the fast gather.
Such amazing guide videos for Spirits!
I wanted to ask what program you are using to play Spirit Island as you do in your videos?
Thank you! Sorry for the slow answer, it's the Handelabra digital adaptation through Steam. There's also a mobile/tablet version.
@@kalennoreth no worries! thanks for replying!
Will you continue this series on TTS now that you're out of spirits on the app?
Probably not, I think I'm going to try and make strategy videos focused on other aspects of the game for a little while. I've got a lot of games left for my level 6 matchup series still as well!

@@kalennoreth Looking forward to those videos!
Outstanding as always, Kalen. Question: Why wasn’t there any event on turn 1? Did I miss it? Thanks!

@@kalennoreth ahh, Ok! I have the base game plus Branch and Claw, so I wasn’t aware. Thanks!

I just works
