Sully really showed his true inner board gamer self when he mentioned something about how Sat was handling the cards. Even when it's not my game on the line I tend to wince when I see cards being put down like that, haha.
So Board Game League’s winner is the best at Multiplayer games, while Lord Of The Board is the best in 1v1 games. Simple. Also the last game (Cosmic Encounter) will be played on New Year’s Eve if the schedule remains.
Yogscast crossover?! Oh this is going to be a massacre, the sort where both sides clamber out of their trenches and are then pointlessly mown down before achieving anything and the victor is whoever accidentally remains standing at the end
Sadly it probably will be in January, they're playing 8 games and I doubt they'll do more than one a week (and even if they're recorded ahead of time they won't do it live on jingle jam not to spoil who won)
@@stone5against1 ah, I failed to think of the upload math, hopefully there's some sort of collab for jingle jam anyway, seeing as there seems to be ever greater levels of collaboration between the two groups.
1:53:05 "Name every country on Earth in 60 seconds"? That's impossible! There are about 180 of them! That's 3 in a second! One can never recall them all so fast! It would be a challenge to even physically recite that!
There's 196 exactly (so you were very close!) 196/60 is 3 16/60 = 3 4/15 so rounding up a bit to 5/15, you would have to name 3.33 recurring countries a second. yeah this was basically impossible
"As of August 12, 2023, Nishchal Malhotra from Delhi, India, holds the world record for the fastest time to recite the names of all 197 countries, completing the feat in 1 minute and 7 seconds." Seems so unfair that he had to attempt this - it should have been something like name 50 countries.
You guys are forgetting this is the 2nd place deck. The higher positions have weaker cards or "duds". Giving 5 points to the person who just got 4 points is obviously not the idea there 😄
Loving the little thumbnails. Blair looks like she's in Pokémon, Sat's about to star in Zoolander, Laurie's just remembered where he is, Lorna's doing drunk sexy, Sullivan's the proud dad, and Dom's being Dom.
1:28:24 Sully just almost accidentally dropping the lore of why Teri's been teasing Sat this whole time is kind of funny, because he _has_ been displaying that level of (let's call it) "excitement" to the cards the whole game whether he's doing well or not🤣
Okay, love you guys, but...someone needs to ban Sat from treating cards that way. It made it so hard to watch. I think I gained an eye twitch as a result and have booked in for board game therapy. Nice one for calling it out so passively Sully. And Teri, you have my permission to hit him as well. Lastly, how many of you had played this before this game? I swear I've never seen someone suffer so much in this game as Sat. If it wasn't for the card treatment, I'd feel sorry for you. Instead you get...NO, NAUGHTY SAT!!!!
You are very kind to say so! To me it looked as though he has no idea how to play the game, and he loves to mangle cards. He does know how to look at a camera, though! So I guess he has that going for him. Good job!
You do recognize, if they only get a double draw for the next power card out of this, they: - Play the next game with no advantage - Still end up drawing 2 cards that actually have an effect between the first 2 games - Only get to use one of them, rather than both , right? That's the worst power. They might as well have drawn one of their next cards now, except now they're supposed to have the best power deck and next time, they might win and have the worst, so it not only downgrades the card, not only downgrades and delays the card, but downgrades and delays the card and forces you to pick between it and another. Were they both just unlucky or is Teri's advice about to be a serious hazard?
Maybe that card is more frequent in the higher decks and they were both unlucky to draw it in the 5th and 6th decks? But yeah, that card is terrible. Even if they got to keep both of the cards it would be meh. It seems like Laurie got the most useful one and he was supposed to get the worst one?
100% they should!!! Yogscast has been playing BotC in minecraft lately so they at least understand the basic rules and roles. Maybe there could be some virtual crossover if getting together in person is too difficult?
HILARIOUS! I couldn't stand the pitch car episode. Long stretches where absolutely nothing happens. I'm looking forward to seeing if it pans out the same way this time
I'm at 1:20:00 and totally convinced that the reason Sat is having such a rough time is because he reshuffled again at the beginning of the game! *puts on Yugioh wig* He needs to trust in the heart of the cards!
Dang can’t believe they did a WWE brand split with Lord of the Board being the Board Game Club champ and the champ of this being the Board Game League champ
Eh, I'm not seeing it. Maybe it's just me but he is far too reserved and/or doesn't seem to mesh well with the jokes/energy of the group. But I'm very neurodivergent so it's probably just me.
Lord of the Board should play the Board League Champion for the Board Cup. Akin to the community shield in football. Or you could unify the titles, but what sort of idiot company would do that...
I would love to see Sully win this series just to see Jon's reaction to Sully showing off that he's the league champ AND the lord of the board that he stole from Jon
This brought back flashbacks of trying to teach this fairly simple game to a group of 4 others, where 1 wasn't really a gamer and another was a drunken casual gamer. The whole time, I had to resist screaming, "This isn't that complicated! How are you so bad at this!?" Like I said: flashbacks. Anyway, love the series idea.
The turn has many stages which are not conveniently laid out anywhere. The pics on a player's sheet are not very descriptive, some stages are taken simultaneously while others individually, and AFAICS, it does not list bonus actions and the number of cooldowns.
@@ivan_pozdeev_u Yeah there were a couple silly mistakes people made but there are so many steps to follow and different options to either play or not that it's easy to lose track of how much heat is left in the engine and how far you're actually moving around corners.
@@--Dasha Is it? Your heat is always right in front of you. And it’s not like it’s that high of numbers. Plus intentionally spinning out to move one spot makes no sense regardless of any excuses given.
Dear @NoRollsBarred could you tell plz, how do you set up your light for such amazing let’s plays?! We are trying to make a studio for board games let’s plays (but in our native language), but we don’t know, how to light up multiple persons and table with such views. We are using the same views, front and two close cameras at left and right, and we think, that led panels should be installed on top of the ceiling, not like in the stereotypical scheme of light. How do you set up such amazing light?! Thank you and sorry for bad English, it is not my native language
LAURIE: Hello! We use a Godox SZ200Bi with a lantern soft box attached to the ceiling in front of the table with two ceiling-mounted Godox ML30Bi with softboxes to fill from the left and right, there are also two of these mounted slightly behind the cast to bring them off the backdrop. Hope this helps!
Sat made this incredibly fun to watch. Ty Sat. PS... silly Sulli! "I name all the countries the same: Simon" Done! 5 pts please! (it didn't say give them their actual names... just asked him to name them!)
After League is over, and you're back to playing new games instead of just classics, I would love to see you guys play Clank! I've watched people play the digital version and loved it, and then I raved about it so much that my friend finally went out and bought it 😅 (I swear, I didn't ask him to, I was just so obnoxious talking about it that he caved!) We played it for the first time this past weekend, and it was so fun! Plus, the base game comes with a double-sided board for Easy or Hard mode, so extra content, and there are tons of variants and expansions for the next Replay Month or League! ...alright, I'll stop being obnoxious about it again. But if it made my friend cave and get it... did it work on you, too? 😏

I wonder if Dom will be on time for Pitch Car this time around
I wonder if Sullivan will make it over the jump
But will we get the true ramp?
King Flick! King Flick! King Flick!
I honestly hope not. It would be quite funny if he isn't. I at least hope they continue to make fun of him for the last time.
"Local dictator" is such an apt title for Dom
12:15 "What game is NRB collectively best at?"
Uhm... Communopoly?
At the very least, it has the "collectively" part!
Words cannot describe how ecstatic i was to hear Laurie say COSMIC ENCOUNTER
Yesss!
IT'S HAPPEEEEEENIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!!!
Dom saying hell has a "minimum speed limit" is a great line that went unappreciated
The slight, the absolute slight. Take John's LotB title, and then not even invite him for the League. Imagine his face when Sully has both titles
Alignments by introduction:
Dom -- Lawful Evil
Blair -- Chaotic Good
Sat -- Chaotic Neutral
Laurie -- Lawful Neutral
Lorna -- Neutral Evil
Sullivan -- Chaotic Evil
Blair Neutral Good and Sullivan Chaotic Good. In what world is Sullivan evil?
Laurie: Someone needs to know the rules
Me: Is Teri playing then?
Sully really showed his true inner board gamer self when he mentioned something about how Sat was handling the cards. Even when it's not my game on the line I tend to wince when I see cards being put down like that, haha.
Ya, it was bothering me a bit and I was glad to see someone said something and was able to do it nicer than I would have.
It is a fine line between making good youtube and destroying a game.
So Board Game League’s winner is the best at Multiplayer games, while Lord Of The Board is the best in 1v1 games. Simple.
Also the last game (Cosmic Encounter) will be played on New Year’s Eve if the schedule remains.
Yogscast crossover?! Oh this is going to be a massacre, the sort where both sides clamber out of their trenches and are then pointlessly mown down before achieving anything and the victor is whoever accidentally remains standing at the end
presumably for Jingle Jam in december I would imagine, so at least the massacre will be for a charitable cause.
Sadly it probably will be in January, they're playing 8 games and I doubt they'll do more than one a week (and even if they're recorded ahead of time they won't do it live on jingle jam not to spoil who won)
@@stone5against1 ah, I failed to think of the upload math, hopefully there's some sort of collab for jingle jam anyway, seeing as there seems to be ever greater levels of collaboration between the two groups.
@spike9653 yeah it would be neat if they did some board game or another live on stream, even if it's not for the league
I'll go all in for Space Boat King Ben, hope he is playing!
Sat's sad looks to the camera when disaster is the only possible outcome. 🤣
I see mister Beau Brown has changed his full name to Sullivan Brown CHELSEEEEAAA
1:53:05 "Name every country on Earth in 60 seconds"?
That's impossible! There are about 180 of them! That's 3 in a second! One can never recall them all so fast! It would be a challenge to even physically recite that!
He did surprisingly well, all things considered. Way better than I could've done, though I wouldn't of forgotten Honduras.
There's 196 exactly (so you were very close!)
196/60 is 3 16/60 = 3 4/15
so rounding up a bit to 5/15, you would have to name 3.33 recurring countries a second.
yeah this was basically impossible
@@crimson-cloud Depends on who you ask, but around 200, yes.
"As of August 12, 2023, Nishchal Malhotra from Delhi, India, holds the world record for the fastest time to recite the names of all 197 countries, completing the feat in 1 minute and 7 seconds." Seems so unfair that he had to attempt this - it should have been something like name 50 countries.

Sullivan is always so much fun to watch. I find his laugh so infectious.
They say the best promos come from the heart, and Laurie's was definitely 100% sincere.
doms irish accent is almost spot on albeit stereotypical but it is very funny…i mean what a wonderfully french accent. lol (im irish and i approve)
I think the only reason Lorna joined the competition was to torment Laurie and see how long it'll take for him to crack :p
And we love her for that!
So boardgame league is just a much better replay month!!! Can't wait for more skull, feed the kraken and cosmic encounter
One rule minor correction for Laurie: Stress cards are resolved in the 3. Reveal & Move step, before the 4. Adrenaline step.
Thanks for playing Heat! It's a great game, and you guys are the best, excited for the league!
I am so excited for this league! Great players and some of the best games! Love it!
As an Auto Racing fan, finish of this game was so exciting. Back and forth and it really came down to that last hand. I love it!
Loving the little thumbnails. Blair looks like she's in Pokémon, Sat's about to star in Zoolander, Laurie's just remembered where he is, Lorna's doing drunk sexy, Sullivan's the proud dad, and Dom's being Dom.
What an impressive line up of games!! Definitely excited for WAVELENGTH
Because it was so long ago, I really hope Laurie gets away with his tactic again…. Skull, skull 💀 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
The finale is going to be great too. Cosmic Encounter is so fun to watch.
So is pitch car
I love Wavelength! I wonder if the 1st place reward of getting to pick his team will treat Laurie well there. :D
1:28:24 Sully just almost accidentally dropping the lore of why Teri's been teasing Sat this whole time is kind of funny, because he _has_ been displaying that level of (let's call it) "excitement" to the cards the whole game whether he's doing well or not🤣
This lineup is incredible!!! Oh and great choice on cast too😂
We need way more lorry jokes! Love Lorna's humor!
I was cracking up every time she slipped in another one. Lorna is truly hilarious!
Amazing new intro, stellar lineup of games, and a crossover with Yogscast in the future?? Heck yes!! I can't wait!
Okay, love you guys, but...someone needs to ban Sat from treating cards that way. It made it so hard to watch. I think I gained an eye twitch as a result and have booked in for board game therapy. Nice one for calling it out so passively Sully. And Teri, you have my permission to hit him as well. Lastly, how many of you had played this before this game? I swear I've never seen someone suffer so much in this game as Sat. If it wasn't for the card treatment, I'd feel sorry for you. Instead you get...NO, NAUGHTY SAT!!!!
so Lord of the Board is the KotR and the Board Game League is the G1, sounds great!
also omg Cosmic Encounter!!!
Sat truly sacrificed everything for content. We salute you, sir.
You are very kind to say so! To me it looked as though he has no idea how to play the game, and he loves to mangle cards.
He does know how to look at a camera, though! So I guess he has that going for him. Good job!
lol. the dice is so big, it just slides down the stairs...
You do recognize, if they only get a double draw for the next power card out of this, they:
- Play the next game with no advantage
- Still end up drawing 2 cards that actually have an effect between the first 2 games
- Only get to use one of them, rather than both
, right?
That's the worst power. They might as well have drawn one of their next cards now, except now they're supposed to have the best power deck and next time, they might win and have the worst, so it not only downgrades the card, not only downgrades and delays the card, but downgrades and delays the card and forces you to pick between it and another.
Were they both just unlucky or is Teri's advice about to be a serious hazard?
Maybe that card is more frequent in the higher decks and they were both unlucky to draw it in the 5th and 6th decks? But yeah, that card is terrible. Even if they got to keep both of the cards it would be meh. It seems like Laurie got the most useful one and he was supposed to get the worst one?
The only way it makes sense is if there are some "powers" in the top decks that are traps, and this is the only way to avoid them.
@@Tidex123 That's actually very fair. Does say it has to be used next time, though, so it can't be held onto until needed.
@@Tidex123 Lori did say that there were a lot of dud cards in the higher rank decks
Now someone needs to send them an even bigger Tower of Density to handle the Die of Doom!
I am absolutely dying at tower of density, this comment rules. Please do not edit that out hahah
It would be helpful for viewers if you painted the numbers darker on the 'dice of doom'. It's beautiful as is, but it's not viewer friendly.
I am not going to lie, the way Sat abuses those cards makes me shudder.
Oh, that was driving me crazy too!
Agreed, not comfortable to look at.
Lory is so key to these going smoothly he is such a great game runner!
the trumpton reference was greatly appreciated by me and my mother💖💖💖
It took me an hour and a half to realise that Lorna had a duck in her hair 😂
Lorna as a regular? Yes please
I'd love to see her in an episode of BOTC, Seems like she's got the right energy for it.
@@ThePuddleOfDoomhe? Are you talking about Sat?
@@therexsystem4818 oh damn auto correct got me good
This is an awesome line up of games, can't wait to see them again.
I don't know who I'm rooting for to win this, probably Blair or Sully
I'm rooting for sat entirely for the first couple of rounds obliterating my sides
Poor Sat definitely should have been discarding before replenishing to essentially mill his deck for heat cards.
Poor Sat shouldn’t have gone into 4th gear into a 2 move corner
I'm on board with "No Rolls, Baby!" but a little uncomfortable with "No Rolls Babies" 😂
Dont know how it would work but they should compete against yogscast in a game of blood on the clocktower
100% they should!!! Yogscast has been playing BotC in minecraft lately so they at least understand the basic rules and roles. Maybe there could be some virtual crossover if getting together in person is too difficult?
Woa a league featuring some really cool games (excited to see skull again!) and a future Yogs collab! Very hype!!
Last few episodes have been hilarious.
This was a great video! Love the concept of Board Game League! Can’t wait to tune into next week and see how it advances!
Love the special intro!
Love the intro for this!
So excited to see there is going to be more Pitch Car, probably the episode I have rewatched the most
HILARIOUS! I couldn't stand the pitch car episode. Long stretches where absolutely nothing happens. I'm looking forward to seeing if it pans out the same way this time
The Irish accent was fantastic my liege Dom 🐷
You guys would be really good at feet Crokinole! Easy win on that
So this Board League is a musical event right? Expect the songs to keep rolling.
Sat has wisely decided to ally with the French, he will achieve great things in this series
Sullivan: "Brazil"
Me: Hell yeah Brazil!
who do i hope wins? well i can't say that but what i can say is... oink oink
oink oink domrade
I'm at 1:20:00 and totally convinced that the reason Sat is having such a rough time is because he reshuffled again at the beginning of the game! *puts on Yugioh wig* He needs to trust in the heart of the cards!
He just plays poorly. E.g. he never discarded any cards to get some heat into hand for cooldowns.
Ah I was hoping to see Rosie compete in this League. I guess Sat will make up the mad chaos she likes to bring.
Agreed, more Rosie and Holly. MOAR CHAOS.
Dang can’t believe they did a WWE brand split with Lord of the Board being the Board Game Club champ and the champ of this being the Board Game League champ
I’ve been waiting for this game. Excited for the video
The power cards idea is so fun! Also, this cast is elite! (Although the Gracey would have been good too)
Support No Rolls Barred! Give 'em a subscribe and Get on Board!
I wonder if Laurie has changed up his Skull strategy
PitchCar? GGs for Sullivan.
You forgot Honduras 😂😂 got to love Teri
its a pity its not a rally game i'm sure sat would be a great navigator, thats why he's called sat nav
Great stuff from Sister Dominic and Lorna complimenting Laurie's explanation skills
Hell yes! Love this game even though I have yet to win a game of it.
Hell yeah! More Cosmic Encounter!
Too bad it's last so it might not matter with their format :(
"How many did you kill?" Amazing off-screen line from Terri.
Sat lookin at the camera killin me everytime
Where’s the kickstarter to get Sat and Lorna on next season of Blood on the Clocktower?
House rule: if you spin out, you must drive in the opposite direction until you spin out again. first to drive one lap, in either direction win
Sat brings a great new energy to the show. Absolutely cracking episode too.
Eh, I'm not seeing it. Maybe it's just me but he is far too reserved and/or doesn't seem to mesh well with the jokes/energy of the group. But I'm very neurodivergent so it's probably just me.
love the format
Love the Fleetwood Mac song reference! haha, for the old folks that watched F1 :P
did not expect the Trumpton throwback but I'm here for it
im so mixed between wanting dom to win or sully
Lord of the Board should play the Board League Champion for the Board Cup. Akin to the community shield in football.
Or you could unify the titles, but what sort of idiot company would do that...
Finally, can't wait for cosmic encounter
I would love to see Sully win this series just to see Jon's reaction to Sully showing off that he's the league champ AND the lord of the board that he stole from Jon

"will go on to versus Yogscast" hold ya damn horses were in November and the yogs are about to get into jingle jangle is this a stream announcement??
The trinket in the red car is a key chain that is meant to look like a Ferrari key chain, but it is a unicorn instead of a horse.
well that`s Sullivan finishing in last
Yo I been playin this for days recently. Love it
Watching them not doing the discard part of the draw phase was causing me stress.
Sat made this incredibly fun to watch. Ty Sat.

Incredibly excited for the League!
