If you see Laborer in the set when choosing your freebie, do you just take him ... or are there other apprentices you would take first. (I know you make this choice before seeing your initial buildings.)
It's an interesting question. It depends a bit both of what I'm into at that moment (trying out something weird or not) but also on what the guys before me, if any, has already taken. If there are something like an acolyte and a squire I'd go for the labourer. If there are debt collectors and other evil guys I'd steer away from him.
@@arthursimsa9005 Hey there! In my opinion the build heavy strategy the labourer leads to works really well when countering fast cathedral players, but it doesn't have enough staying ground nor enough speed to beat dedicated black market players

@@UpUrPlaywhy would you steer away from the labourer when another player has black market oriented characters?
