For whomever cares, blitzing a 2v1 gives 37%; manualling gives the odds of 15/36, which is roughly 42%. Manualling improves odds by about 4.5%

[@noctusfury6918]

Thank you for the stats and calcies. ❣💯👍

[@debott4538]

@@noctusfury6918 So is there a reason why the game doesn't just buff 2v1 to 42%?

[@noctusfury6918]

@@debott4538 I'm not sure. I'm assuming that blitzing gives the attacker greater firepower or increases the speed of his attacks *(which can be favorable with 40s-60s timers)* but decreases the chances of him winning against the defender if it's 2v1. As one might expect, defenders often win in a 2v1 advantage due to the defender always winning tied rolls *(unless you get REALLY LUCKY on the dice rolls).* So I'm guessing that the game debuffs an attacker's chances when they blitz, but they increase their chances when they manually do it, which allows the attackers to regain some of their lost control over the dice rolls *(though they're technically controlled by the game mechanics itself).* However, I wouldn't attack a territory with 2v1 unless I was super confident in my dice rolls. Other than that, I would do 3v1 instead, unless circumstances prevented me. This is regardless of whether it's computer/mobile or the physical board game.

I'm so happy for Pete's success , it makes me have hope knowing ppl are able to do what they love while making a living from it , gives me motivation to do the same . keep being an inspiration to all of us . ❤️

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Appreciate that man! I've worked hard in all sorts of different things in my life and never expected to find myself in this spot. Nor do I think I 'deserve' it in some way. I just take the good as it comes and try to be grateful. ❤️❤️❤️

Dope spoiler block 👍

[@benrund-scott1598]

Joining the spoiler block by thanking Pete for giving me a 50% win rate in my first few games ever. Hoping to keep improving!

[@aranahjohnson9640]

Hey PETE! I found out about Risk from that viral round one classic fixed game of yours, I've been watching your prog speedrun and more and playing from time to time myself! Thanks to you (and Reggie of course), I reached Master today with 64 hours played winning my 5th game in a roll in progressive world dom on Central America!🎉

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Eyy wtg! Gm incoming for sure

[@BaldyTheOnlyOne]

19:12 Subtitles are in "food mode" 🍕 ".. no Australia no win, well not win (when) pizza('s) around" lol. And a few moments later 😉you speak of "eating red". Well played sir, and bon appétit!

[@Ashws_]

lol

[@LandonRoberts-c7f]

I went from a beginner to an expert watching Pete- love the guy

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Nice! GM incoming

[@xeridea]

I would like a semi progressive mode, sets 5-6-7-8-9-10-12-14-16-18-20-22-25-28-31-34-37-40-45-50, then +5. So turn order wouldn't matter as much, and bonuses still semi relevant, but game wouldn't stalemate like fixed.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Different varieties of card progressions would be great options for our competitions.

[@jacksonh3457]

Fixed doesn’t stalemate, progressive capitals-does

[@phillipkvile5040]

Petes intro has begun to repeat itself in my head before i go to bed… What iiisssss up RIIIISK TAKEEEEEEERS

[@timmcclymont3527]

Pete's face should be on a special addition of Risk the board game. I mean, it's the least they can do.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

😻😻😻

[@santhinal7767]

TBF the australia position was kinda a win for green. He placed 2nd by not being a threat but also being just barely strong enough to not be worth killing. There was no reality where a beginner like him won but with his strat it lets him gather a ton of points!

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

And by a win you mean a loss 🤣🤣🤣 Unless we trying to play for second these days

[@santhinal7767]

I mean dont you get points for 2nd place especially if your lower ranked? I am convinced half the 'masters' in risk have only mastered getting 2nd place using this method. Its not even a super hard method to use.@@TheKillPeteStrategy

[@gamers_1]

Great game pete as always 👍🔥❤️❤️

[@tommykahlow5353]

Great video as always! My morning routine is drinking coffee and watching your new daily video.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Love that!

[@MadRad1000]

Love to see a short prog video … it must mean zee sweeeep!

[@mcbrideless2064]

I nearly had a heart attack on that 2v1 blitz!

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Haha I lost a 7 on that 10

[@whitesnake2022]

What a stomp!

[@mug224]

Classic

[@AR0ACE]

Hey, I just randomly got recommended this channel, and it seems really fun! Is there a good video to learn about risk?

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

I have a couple videos for beginners specifically and a beginner playlist

[@-_noble_-2621]

Liked the talk about Cap roles. I put 1450ish into 650ish and lost 1200. Couldnt slider cause it was just a "?" But game was stalemated to max 😂

[@GolemDude]

Would you say green locking their stack and skipping a card were the two defining factors that got them second and not third from your POV/strategy/methodology, green’s POV, and a general/spectator/neutral point of view?

[@jesusfrreak2]

I think this is actually a good point, their passiveness, locked troops and lack of cards made them seem like a less enticing kill which got them second here

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

The most significant thing green did was remove the killguard on blue when I needed it. I don't think they were intentionally playing for second I think that's just how it ended up

[@stans1091]

Dinner time babyyyyy, om nom nom

[@scottcunning4221]

Oh frabjous day! Good game

[@CapnPink28]

Some people playing this game literally have no idea what they’re doing. 😂😂 Talking about personal experience…lol

[@kyetsuGaming]

aye another pete vid :D got here early

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

❤️❤️❤️

[@witch.y]

time for rabokki and risk!!

[@zacharygrouwinkel1534]

Yea cap rolls are broken. I had a guy roll his 150 stack into my 100 cap and he only lost 60 troops. Made it impossible for me to recover with my set because he got insane dice.

[@schongemeldet1]

Algorithm boost 🔥

[@LithmusEarth]

Pete, you need to will yourself to be less sick, no allergies, no colds. we need you for risk. Feel better sir! It was amazing to watch people just fight for all the wrong things, and not realize what they have available to them. Blue both gave himself up to be killed, and no one was willing to take it until you, a whole turn/round went by. At these low levels they just play terrible, it seems just an inevitability. whereas at the high level, it seems like it comes down to sometimes lucky cards/positioning, or sometimes just emotions, people making bold plays or revengeful plays. as we'd say in the magic the gathering space it's much more the Politcking at the table.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

I don't think I'm sick. Maybe it's just the time of year

[@omnirex5184]

OMG Pete, you probably didn't have it!

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Oh I had it baby

[@ruthlesace]

So Pete you've spoken about the ranking system being broken. How do you feel about a seperate ranking system for each game mode? For example you could be a beginner in 1v1 but a grandmaster in ffa prog. And each game node requires the exact same points system to get to those rankings.

[@lukeperkins9013]

Well 1v1s and FFA are already separate, but I see what ur sayin

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

I'm less interested in multiple leaderboards than them coming up with a good was to more objectively measure overall skill in the game but that may not be possible

[@ΧάρηςΠαπαδογιάννης]

Hey Pete and everyone else, I was wondering, do you think classic progressive tends to attract worse players than other modes? I tend to win about 60-70% of the games I play on classic progressive while I am a pretty average player on other modes, however I don’t think I have a large enough sample size and maybe it has been just luck. What do you think?

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Prog wd has fallen out of favour for competitive players trying to rank up since caps is now in ascendancy

[@jaredseegmiller9411]

Hey Pete how do you attack so quickly like at the end of the video here I have lost games or fed kills because I ran out of time

[@joelwillems4081]

He plays on a computer and not a mobile device. So he can mouse click and hit enter twice real fast.

[@dakotamarshburn8123]

Road to hunnid thousand.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

It's coming

[@Stakd_]

i don't necessarily think that reworking how the lobbies are created and booted up would make that much of a difference for how fast they fill. The main problem is the steady decline in the player-base itself. this year alone through steam, the average player count per month is roughly 1950 players. this game is a virtual board game and is more suited as a party game with friends, so id say majority of that player-base is playing private lobbies. i was curious just how this game faired on twitch and from what ive seen there is little to no viewership for risk besides from you and kylted. i just checked it now and there is currently 35 total viewers across 7 streamers. Until a new hype for the game happens, i could see the progression from the devs slow down compared to how they were doing it the last couple years. the viewership along with how ranked is setup where you can play any rank in any game instead of people your own rank, and the "World Championships" have no funding from SMG besides a Risk boards and some gems in their game, is what in my opinion is slowing this game down heavily. And all those will coincide with each other to boost each other. we seen it in the kill pete open. biggest tourney ever. why? because of an actual prize pool. SMG puts some sort of funding into their tourneys with boost the player count, and with a functional ranking system of players ONLY playing people their rank, will make this game actually grow pass a party game. the way the ranking system is setup now is just casual with a number. changing how much you gain/lose isnt the way to fix the ranking system.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

I agree. And I wonder if they understand this and don't care, or don't even understand this.
