Me at first :"Nah, definitely not gonna watch a 3hour long game of risk" Me 3 hours later:" So that's how defeat someone with a larger army than yours, interesting"

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

eyy

[@RonaldTungol-j8d]

Top Pete statement right here “And I DONT force trade my joker because THAT would be,,,,,, DUMB” lol

[@CapDanAddams]

😂

[@kingkiwi8888]

2:37:09 omg imagine that 65 percent roll worked 💀 The only time you wish to lose it. Gave me a heart attach! Great game as always peteman

[@happy_labs]

I think in the end white just lost patience more than anything. What an endurance grind in the endgame

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

indeed

[@mohamedmarzouq]

I think this is the most educational game I've ever watched for you on the classic caps map, Pete. I've enjoyed it so much. Thank you for the great content!

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Cheers man!

[@markjust86]

My phone autoplayed this vid and I didn't look at the video length. I just kept thinking, this'll be over in a min!!!

[@bhugh215]

i rage smack after 20 minutes. i got shit to do. respect to pete for grinding for near 3 hours for 750 lol

[@ericbell530]

And of course the final cap roll is positive. 🤣 GG

[@Nellak2011]

This guys is why Pete is #50 in the world. He thinks 100 moves ahead and can beat you even despite overwhelming odds.

[@xaedris]

Not really proud of it but i had a gm basically win till we sat for probably an extra 90 mins taking a card[this stopped too and became just fortifying] and passing (16k troops vs 24k) but despite my 'stalling' i sat on 4 cards the entire time eventually he pulled everything but 1k troops off cap to the only territory i was open too but the point is it just takes one mistake( which i kept trying to get him to make ) eventually i pulled off about 800 troops and got him to lower his only dedending cap to 500 (sets were 900) and won the next turn but hey in hindsight not worth the almost 5 hour caps game e.e

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Hey man as long as you're not waiting your turn it's fine. There's a difference between stalling and stalemate. The former is our fault as players, the latter is not.

[@shallowabyss515]

when pete missed the cardblock by not leaving troops in ukraine when attacking the cap and the game lasts another hour :O I'm not complaining, any excuse for more pete!

[@trousersnake81]

There were a couple spots. But what I know is that in the game, actually playing, I would have missed 10x as many opportunities and lost hours earlier

[@McHorsesCreations]

Beautiful! If it’s a long video, that means there will be an epic 1v1! 🍿😎 Edit: Holy carp! 2:31:40 that was insane!

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

You know it!

[@Shlam26]

Spoiler block

[@khaosarts2089]

You'd think you were fighting against your own clone in this game.

[@Nellak2011]

This is what I imagine 2 almost optimal players playing for a long time looks like.

[@michaelhuntington29]

Off one of the original boxes of risk you have the Madagascar borders protected! 2:21:28

[@TaismoFanBoy]

So, to fight someone a bit bigger than you, you stalemate them until they give up? Yeah, sounds about right for risk. The greater patience wins a majority of the time.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

You gotta card block on these settings

[@josephrion3514]

40:53 is where I'm guessing it stalemates for two hours.

[@jcgoodman-d8b]

Soft dice, fuzzy dice, all the rice in Siam baby let’s go.

[@mattbarmore9318]

Just watched the russia turn one video, i know its difficult to make comments on others caps when you cant see them and much different with blizzards. But was nice to hear you opinions on everyones cap, and where they wore correct/ where they probably should have put their caps on this video

[@paulmccarthy1444]

I think when white put the 115 stack off cap in Africa he was seeing if you would be willing to cardblock red but he should have accepted your alliance

[@TheShizz011]

Amazing Video Pete! Do not listen to the haters, you are amazing and we love you and your videos!

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Thanks! Since when are there haters?

[@SteveFuchs]

Yeah…how can they hate from outside of the club?

[@Lord_Great_Popo]

White had better position for card blocking you from america, it was really painful to see he never tries to cardblock when he got the chance

[@markg1537]

It feels like through much of the game white was insisting on bonuses. I know it is usually said bonuses dont really matter, but in a long game like this isnt it a big part of why white was usually ahead?

[@نادرطعمه-ذ9غ]

انت أسطورة هذه اللعبة لقد استمتعت بكل دقيقة في هذا الفيديو ❤❤

[@ruthlesace]

I'm sorry Pete, I had to go to bed so I skipped to the ending. Epic game from what I saw.

[@NathanPerez-ej4qc]

Got to say "THAT WOULD BE DUMB" every time until they finally get the point.

[@zacharygrouwinkel1534]

Pete, do you think adding a setting into the game that makes your color random when you spawn into the game and hides who the player is would be a good addition? Think it would make tournament games more fun so you don’t know who is who and can’t target a specific player.

[@papleone]

Hey Pete, love your content a lot, but this was painful to watch. Some thoughts on how to improve your endgame: 1. at the start of that 1v1, once red flagged, take his easy cards one by one and create pockets, so that if white wants to hit red aswell, he needs to hit your territories first, so he gives you two cards for every one you take. 2. dont hit caps unnecessarily because that just looses you troops. 3. dont over attack, not even to hit off cap troops (unless that wins you the game) 4. dont trade early unless youre about to die or can guarantee a card block on the other guy 5. dont take the board, that way you actually open yourself up to a card block. 6. dont let your oponent hold bonuses you controll. (Like africa in this case, you could have started your block in egypt a lot sooner) 7. keep especially those caps strong, that are open to your opponent, even if the locked ones are strategically better placed, because that way they wont have a 100% roll. (8. dont reinforce your softblocks when your opponent has 5 cards, because that just loses you more troops than them most likely, even if they stupidly overattack all of them in a row.) There were some other minor mistakes, but thats the main issues i noticed. This game could have been over after like an hour or an hour and a half at max. (it honestly almost felt like you deliberatly stalled it out some times, though i dont think so. ;-D) Also obviously theres exceptions to all of these guidelines, but in generell, they work pretty well. There, had to get this one out of my System. GGs for sticking this one out anyway!

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Thanks but I don't learn this way

[@xaedris]

Ah yes instructing one of the best players in the game, makes sense. Not that we should ever be ignorant to advice but we each play the game our own way. (And pete also plays to entertain)(i think)

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

@@xaedris Often time folks watch the show and they want to help me so they mean well. We are watching me learn in real time with the show. I post that. Warts and all. The mistakes I make are the best teachers for me.

[@davids8345]

nice game, bit of a marathon - but some good takeaways & learnings for everyone... ggs

[@jamespassarelli1062]

What a long video! 🤠 My hat is off to both contestants! 😀

[@xaedris]

Another comment, this time for a question. I imagine youre not too fond of the aus/siam position but when thats the best option i find it personally best to not even take the pocket and hold it for later on, how do you feel about this? Not worth it? Is it better to get others to card block so that they fight? I like having pockets like aus and 1 point SA so that i have the option to card farm with someone later to either block the remaining player(s) or protect myself from a block But thats probably not the entertaining choice as apposed to watching/creating fights amongst the other players?

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

It's nice to save those cards and killguards for later in the game for sure.

[@acid_ibis4214]

Hey pete at the 2:30 min mark he moved 2000 troops right next to your 3000 cap. Why didn't you 0% slider it down to 0 and keep the card block.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

I like what I did better. Forced him to get a bad roll on a cap.

[@2011lafayette]

Wow 2:41.00 min . Of Pete . Its heaven .

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

haha I hope you enjoyed!

[@trousersnake81]

Incredible game

[@watteffer]

Hey Pete, can you do an analysis video of this game? the key moments, what to do, what not to do, especially for that 1v1

[@paulmccarthy1444]

I second this , it's a great idea

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

There will be a few more in this series before I switch to something else.

[@USG_Gaming]

2 hours late to the video and people will still be watching it if they arrived on time 😂 Love the daily uploads. Makes my day/night every day.

[@bartkonings5348]

How is it possible that he losses around 1400 more than you Pete? 😮 2:31:30 Edit: When searching reddit I learned that capital troops get an extra dice while defending. 2:40:23 In the Last battle you almost had a 50/50 loss, while you attacked his last capital. So that is pure luck I guess? (I'm new at Risk, started after comming accros your video's)

[@Daddysnumber3son]

WHAT. IS. UP. RIIIIISKK TAKKKERRSS.

[@Daddysnumber3son]

Yup. That was a game.

[@LithmusEarth]

26:38 how is there so much game left? Oh boy, it's like they say in chess, the perfect game ends in a draw, in risk a high skill stalemates? I guess they say that?. 28:20 what i wasn't watching for was all those card trade ins, okay now it's more stable. 31:13 so they are both new, and are not probably going to make some dynamic plays at all, i should probably find a good spot to stop and just scrub the video for highlights. We are getting close to the setting in part. 35:27 okay time to just scrub away. oh... okay, so pete and white are about to do something so let's wait until 40 minutes in.

[@eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeoeeeeeeeeeee]

40:36 you missed the power of the 69 stack! (ladieeeeees and gentlemen)

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

we can never miss it!

[@BeerfootBandit]

Why do people attack and leave 3 on the territory only to move the 3 back to the cap anyway? Btw at 22:43 you sounded like the joker laughing Pete lmao 🤣🤣

[@runningriot6399]

It’s to prevent a mistake when fortifying. If you move your whole stack out and then mess up the fortification, you can leave all your troops or most of them off cap. It’s very unlikely to happen but it is a possibility over hundreds and thousands of turns.

[@Femaiden]

feels like this isn't worth it, so mich time sunk to come in first for a few hundred more points . if you took the second place, you could have been done and then gone into another game and possibly won that one. . . but good on you having this much patience and tenacity. I guess that's why you're a grandmaster

[@Yengozi]

I’m curious Pete why did you let white constantly keep his Africa bonus? Couldn’t you break it easily no consequence at all? 30:00 ish

[@DreamApostle128]

I'm not Pete but I like to share my opinion here: You don't want to fight 2 players at the same time. Preferably you wanna fight 1 player with the help of another player. Breaking a +3 in progressive cap after 30 minutes of the game going on is only going to damage you more than anything --remember the game is not about fighting other players ,it's about winning the match.

[@DreamApostle128]

Also Red did exactly that.. He broke bonuses and you can see he got 3rd And let me tell you he only got 3rd not because he is good but because orange skipped a +8 card and green and black killing eachother I expected red to get 5th and black 6th based on how they played Red trading too fast and black begging green for a suicide slam

[@DreamApostle128]

Killed eachother* it's so hard to comment on phone in KZbin... No option to edit and the text gets deleted with the slightest missclick

[@valentijnvd00]

Love you Pete!!!

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

I love you too

[@dismuter_yt]

2:29:13 Would it have been possible to keep the card block there by 0% smacking the stack from the capital?

[@dismuter_yt]

2:36:42 You nearly didn't see it again then, but thankfully you did 🎉

[@MrLegrosalo]

nice man

Him grabbing a cub of Coffee?

[@Elra94]

@@owenjauregui why would he shut down cam for getting a Coffee when he does pushups in Others? He clearly has No Problem with us seeing His lower body

[@owenjauregui]

@@Elra94 Well he has turned off his camera before in other videos only to turn it on with a cup in his hand. Even later on in the video, he took a bathroom break and turned off his camera at 2:35:00 and then came back at 2:37:00. My main point being that most likely he turns off his camera to do the things he's claiming to do. The main reason he turns on his camera when he's doing push ups is to motivate us, the viewers, to also take a stretch and break from out computers. That's not to mention that he's usually only gone for a minute or two; barely enough time to do anything.

[@happy_labs]

It kinda sounds like you're making wild assumptions about what he's doing with the camera off for a minute and then trying to police this imaginary behaviour which would be none of your business regardless.
