@@encolumned clearly you just need to get better lmaooo
@@cowbro3011 you need to get better
@@BluExtaByte True. We don’t accept any of such insults so I respect this as justice.
Figuring out patterns by yourself is one of the most satisfying things in the game
Finishes the game playing 420 seconds. Neat
😎
And rn the likes are at 420 lmao

I actually had no idea how to play Minesweeper and just by watching this video I was able to beat an 9x9 board for the first time in like 25 years lol. Now I just need to learn the basic rules of Solitaire...
respect for my dude winning in exactly 420 seconds
Imagine if he was a horrible human being. Still "respect"?
@@IVeryMuchHateRUclipsHandleswhat does that have to do with anything, i wrote this a year ago
Agreeing with OP, but some people do mindlessly say "respect to (insert person) for (insert horrible thing)"
I learned how to play mine sweeper on my own. Trial and error, learning how some of the patterns work on my own. I just randomly figured out how to play in class one day, and when anyone sees me play I have to explain to them. It’s 2023. I didn’t know how mine sweeper worked back then so I understand, but explaining it over and over sucks 😭
THANK YOU... I was playing it randomly and just barely picked up on what to do, but I ended up losing with one square left. I was so devastated that I decided to finally face my childhood hatred of Minesweeper, and now I'm having a blast. :)
Probably my favorite pattern is the new 1-1 that shows up at 13:33. The top 1 says there's one in 2 cells, and the bottom says there's one in 5, so the bottom 3 are free. Often there's another 1, so you get a nice 2x3 behind a wall of pairs.
That and solving an apparent corner 2x2 50-50 with a mine count of 1.
Yeeesss, i also discovered that one
i had no idea chording exists until i see minesweeper speedruns
I am a minesweeper professional. I do not show my scores online. But this totorial got me really good and got my best run at 36 seconds 9x10 board. Corner ones are ez tho. If any of you see this. Keep going you will prefect this classic.
correct me if I’m wrong but wouldn’t profesional have a sub 5 second run as his best on a 9x10 board?
@@pukkss It is a stupid troll
@@pukkss I have a feeling he just means he's decent at the game, anyone with world record potential probably wouldn't be watching a video like that
9x10 is barely bigger than a beginner game
and i have a 5 sec beginer game
This video randomly popped up on my recommendations... Always wanted to learn how to play this, very nice explanation... Now will play this...
thank you man I just beat my first minesweeper game just using your advice and strategies now I can pass the time with minesweeper
Bro I freaking love minesweeper. There was like a whole month in my life where I could literally only think of minesweeper
Woah, using reduction finally makes expert possible, thank you so much
Thank you so much. A game I play is having an event that requires you to play minesweeper and I'm notoriously awful at it, so this has been amazingly helpful!!!
I've been playing this game for years and never knew about chording. You learn something new every day.
Just want to get better at minesweeper recently and stumbled upon your channel. Love your video mate!!
For some reason the minesweeper community is active and nice,
THANK YOU FOR THIS!! I SERIOUSLY COULD NOT UNDERSTAND ANY OTHER TUTORIAL-
Thank you this was the only video of many I went through trying to find a good explanation
Thanks for the patterns at 14:15 !!
I've actually gotten sub 3 mins on Expert, aiming for sub2, and I never knew half of those patterns ;-; kinda insane, will definitely spend more time looking for patterns now
This shit is addicting once you learn how to play it
new queens gambit looks lit
Thank you so much, now I can have fun playing this game!
Dude you are AWESOME for this! Thank you so much!
i really needed this guide, thanks!
wow u r the best, i learned this game very quickly just by this video alone, thanks man :)
only video that helped me learn to play minesweepeer, thank you!
Very helpful video! Thank you
Thank you bro. It is so useful to me.❤❤
Useful video. Great job u did on making us understand.
finishes the gameplay and tutorial in 420 seconds. no smoking!
thank you so much! i got my first win because of you
Learn this helped a lot
INLOVE THE 1-2-2-1 pattern it so funnn
Congrats !
This is the only tutorial I understand
amazing video you just got a sub
1st time playing Expert 10 minutes
Neat
Is there like an offline version of/alternative to World of Minesweeper? The closest I've found is Simon Tatham's version, but there's still luck involved on that sometimes.
From what I know, there should never be luck involved in Simon Tatham's version.
If you're looking for an offline PC alternative, arbiter is the most used original minesweeper clone, from what I know (Although missing some quality of life stuff IMO). If you're looking for no guess, I'm not sure for PC.
There's a couple of mobile apps that you can get to play offline and with no guess, if that interests you
Hey if I’m not mistaken is the background in the video the cover for Vessels 2.0 by Starset?
Yessir
Dude that’s awesome, also props for replying to comments on a 2 year old video lol
ty so much
this man got a 420 on his run and he properly did it
my brain just expanded by 300 percent
i slowly understood but i still gotta learn
Hardly related, but isn't the background your using the album art for Starset's Vessels 2.0?
Yessir
@@DardHong Good taste!
nice vid
Thanks for this, ive won 3 rounds since ive watched this (before i watched i never won)
10:35 perfect time
i got 32s, thank you :D
Hey, Have you tried the game called Demoncrawl..? Its an roguelite minesweeper game.. and I'm addicted to it.
As a minesweeper enjoyer and holder of a 29 second normal run in the google version, I can say that if you want to speed run this game to any capacity, sometimes luck is unavoidable as otherwise you would spend too much time figuring out logic. It’s rough, but that’s just the minesweeper life.
Yay
With your advice I've beaten minesweeper in 45 seconds
How can one minimize the occurance of 50/50s on expert?
The sacred texts!
plot twist: he timed it 10:27 420 :)
my fav pattern is any number in corners, so that there's 1 guaranteed mine.
2:00 Why are the corners better? Is there a statistical reasoning behind it?
You want to find an opening to start the game, which means all of the surrounding cells have to be a non-mine. Clicking in the corner means there's only 3 chances to be a mine, compared to clicking in the middle for example where there would be 8
Just a question, why world of minesweeper changed to minesweeper online?
10:20 420 SECONDS NO WAY
im high as fuck and having the giggles of my life rn
ohk
Me getting distracted by the vessels 2.0 cover in the background
I watched one tutorial
Forgot about it and then out of nothing i realized minesweeper was easy
What do the 2s represent?
1 = 1 mine in any of the squares around it, 2 = 2 mines in any of the squares around it, etc
@@DardHong thanks, its a pretty hard game ngl
Dude, CHORDING IS SO OP, ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO LOSE WITH IT
There is times where I just chord into a bomb I'm not doing this right am I.
Anyone gonna talk about the time on the second game?
thank you so much im a pro? now
I figured how yo play myself.
Imagine getting an 8 on your first game
somewhere, sometime, someone has probably got a 8 in their first game
Brainpower
Chording is much easier if you have a mouse, rather than one of those touch pad things that many laptops have
True
Hi xilef
Watching the first beginner game and cringing at the inefficient moves and wasted clicks but obviously it's not something that a new player should be expected to worry about.
Going over tips for efficiency like that would probably be a good topic for a video aimed at intermediate/advanced players.
I think I just made the world record for minesweeper on expert difficulty on accident I watched your video to help me understand the rules and I’ll beat your record. I’m sorry sincerely sorry😅
What time did you get
if you don't watch this at 144p, you aren't a chad
Huh, this game is supprisingly similar to hexcells
Hexcells is inspired by minesweeper
first easy ever in 111
im surprised that people still play minesweeper
i play a modernized version of minesweeper on android
i finished beginner at 16 sec haha
I managed to lose on the first click
13:00
I’m so confused on what your going at
Same
its really the best learning it yourself. it gets easier the more you play
I did it in 145 seconds huh
Lol i got 2 glitches under 5 minutes in that game)
I always thought it was a guessing game 😢
5 mins into the video, and I cant understand anymore. I don't want to learn this I would simply just learn Sudoku.
Minesweeper is harder than chess
That inefficient chording makes me cringe LOL
today's exercise

me : this is too hard let me just mark EVERY SINGLE TILE
I got a 48 seconds timer thanks to this video. I used google minesweeper tho.
Nevermind, got a 10 second timer btw it was on easy mode
I have score of 50th of minesweeper google version😎 (😭)
