At 6:58, where you said that the rule book states that it's okay to intentionally not charge rent, would you please provide an excerpt from the rule book which specifically says this? The only thing I found in the rule book related to this is _"The owner may not collect the rent if he/she fails to ask for it before the second player following throws the dice"_ but I would not interpret this as the owner doing this intentionally but rather unintentionally for whatever reason, whether they legitimately forgot, was being distracted, etc.

I have found that if there aren’t any cards that attack your hand you can buy only treasure and you are almost guaranteed to win

I won my very first Dominion Match by simply using Library.

im addicted to this game. i get pissed sometimes but i always come back lol

Wouldn't you have been one food short of doing that enlist at about 2:00? The mill and one worker make 2 food right?

But you could bribe the next player after you to immediately roll the dice after your turn

Ah! I was listening to a podcast a couple weeks ago and the hosts were talking about going to PAX and they talked about your game, and I was like "I KNOW THAT GAME! I'VE PLAYED IT!" I playtested it like... years ago, lol. It was fun to hear them talk about this game, and also kind of weird at the same time because I've known about it for years, and they were just learning about it. Anyway, that's cool it's on Kickstarter, I'll share it around!

I just started playing and this was just what I needed 🤌🏻

Help! I've been Militia'd and I can't get up!

Hey, just a question here. Did you use Markov chains to calculate the probabilities on the heat map? Did you account for the community and chance cards shifting the chances of being on any given spot at a time. I tried to and I got really different probabilities on the heat map.

have just played with 2 players, but yes i've found that if there are a lot of first and second tier cards of one color and there is a third tier card that needs 7 of that color, good idea to reserve that tier 3 card at the start. as future tier 1 cards emerge of that color that you need 7 of, you can reserve them immediately if you can't afford them right away. don't waste gold on tier 1 or 2 cards. with 3 gold and going for a few tier 1s of the right color, it isn't that hard to get to 7 of one color. now if that is not the case, i wouldn't be iron clad stuck to that strategy. for example, don't reserve a 4 point card that needs 7 ruby if there are 0 ruby tier 1 and 2 cards to start. once you get one 4 or 5 pointer early, best to focus on tier 2 or tier 1 cards that are worth 1 point that heavily require the gem you already have a lot of. or a 4/4 noble that you already have one of the 4. if the nobles have some gem overlap, it can be a good call to just collect almost exclusively tier 1s that contribute to all 3 nobles. once you have 3 nobles, just start taking as many "free" cards with points that you can. however if the nobles are all fairly different, i mostly ignore them. you just can't let the other player get all 3. you can also somewhat block nobles in the right circumstance, for example if all 3 nobles need emerald, and you reserve a 4 point card that needs 7 emerald, even if you don't get the noble yourself, if you hog all the low tier emerald cards, your opponent likely won't afford the nobles either and you'll get the tier 3 card.

Gamemaker and asprite! What game are you making? Do you have anything released? Ooh and thanks for the video, super helpful!

The tips were great, nice video

I just started Dominion and have no idea what I’m doing but I WANT to know… there’s a reason it’s so popular.

Search history: -how to crush everyone in monopoly -how to put a family back together

The tips are fine, but I really disagree with the advice around gold. I would say buy the card you need at 6 which usually isn't a gold.

I played this for the first time yesterday, and its now my favourite card game ever

i just lost 4 times in a row to my younger cousin that im nearly twice as old as which made me feel stupid asf. (it was also his first time play btw). This video really helped me actually win for once.

“Advanced darkness…” Made me laugh.

Thank you, Bro!

Village plus smithy is all you need

Stupid rule 7:18, especially considering how quickly players could get the next person to roll if they’re both working against you. They could plan to roll faster than you can even ask them for rent! We’re bringing physical activity into Monopoly lol!

Thank you. Microsoft Hearts Card Game cheats so much it is unplayable. It deals shit cards and bots game up on you.

Also, keep in mind that different player counts call for different strategies. The more players, the more peaceful you might want to be. The less players, the more aggressive the player tends to win.

As an experienced player this is a really good beginner guide and highlights a lot of mistakes people make, namely having extra buys and using it on coppers! Trashing is a very useful mechanic and whenever you construct a deck rather than randomizing you should always have a way to trash unless you're using gardens or something.

Thanks for tips :3

The best way to win this game is buying silver/gold/platinum then buying the colony’s until there gone 9/10 you will win without having anything else

Is there a reason you stoped uploading

I'm sorry, but the loops aren't only applicable to those who are winning and losing. A positive feedback loop is any benefit the game gives you for doing something in game.

I play against 'easy' bots on the digital and always get pantsed. It's ridiculous.

I can just spam the Ace of Clubs from the very first trick. As I will be the lead suit from the second trick and win the first trick as Ace is highest. And if I have 2 of Clubs, I can pass it off. And I can shoot the moon AND the sun with it. Pretty big loophole, if ya ask me.

This is just a sad game, last time i tried it after not playing it since i was a kid, we were 4 players, player 1 got a hot streak of high dice right out of the gate, and bought every property he landed on, game was won in round 2. What could fix it is either players start with less cash or make property more expensive.

Thx

It's interesting to note on the "heat map" (2:30) that the light blues spaces are nearly as likely to be landed on as the "hottest" ones despite being on the "cold" part of the board. I already saw them being touted as top-notch spots in other guides but that just reinforces it for me.

My Husband and I just started playing this, we are addicted lol

Basic and trivial tips, nothing new. Turn down the music, it is too loud and annoying

you are soooooooo hot :)

nice

An important concept you haven't touched is the draw pile size, sometimes is not worth drawing more cards since the cards you played this turn will go to the discard pile, and if you already shuffled your discard pile, you'll loose them in a rotation

Very concise, I love it, earned my sub just because of it, great content!

Can’t figure out how to play Ways profitably , any examples out there?

3:38 Those are actually called Streets, Colored groups also known as Streets are just 1 type of property, Utilities and Railroads are also properties as well. But still, buy every Street you land on.

3:24 Or, you can auction the Utility and try to get it for cheaper.

Dark ages has the best synergies!

I agree normally coppers you need to get rid of them, however if you have one of the best cards in a copper strategy. Then keeping them is amazing! Every time there’s a good copper strategy I win every single time! I’ve never lost a single game when there’s a really good kingdom card that works with coppers. Apothecary from alchemy being the best! However my beggar and rats strategy is epic, I’ve made a lot of enemies with my copper strategies! I’m probably the best and only copper strategist! That said I rarely lose. And my duplicate duchy run is OP!

This helped a lot! I have played various deck builders including Ascension, Star Realms, Hero Realms, and Cthulhu Realms. Yet for some reason, getting into Dominion always felt harder. The pointers provided were spot on and they did help me improve the early game. felt

When are you supposed to buy silvers? Do I do it as soon as I get 3 coppers?

ok.... get a camera that stays focused. Please.... lol!

Rugwart the robber is banned by my girlfriend for life... swapped hands with her taking 8 cards (3 of which I could close for) and gave her 1 single ruins. She actually cried real tears.

I WON WITH BLUE 🎉
