Find a niche opening and learn it thoroughly. Hopefully your opponent will make a mistake and you can take advantage of it :P

[@Sam_on_YouTube]

It should be noted that while this game is completely solved by computer analysis, the computer could not detect much in the way of strategy to guaranty a win. There are suggestions, certainly, but nothing to guaranty a win for one side or the other unless you have access to the database of every possible game.

[@NoNameAtAll2]

There was a paper on connect 4 which described tons of tactics (Download link) www.informatik.uni-trier.de/~fernau/DSL0607/Masterthesis-Viergewinnt.pdf

[@Sam_on_YouTube]

NoName Was that based on the recent solving of Connect 4? Last I heard on the state of it (and I haven't read that paper) there were tactics and strategies that are helpful, but no optimum winning strategy like you see in games like Nim and Tic Tac Toe. Rather it is more like chess, except with a small enough space of possible moves that current computers can now check them all to find he best option.

[@NoNameAtAll2]

Sam There was a paper from Massachusetts that just brute forced with supercomputer And this one is with normal PC, by using a lot of strategies to cut early

[@dooe8593]

booooo

[@stayontrack]

Sam Pretty sure they can. If computers can do it in chess they can do it in connect 4 no problem

[@ryanbrown1503]

When playing this game it's always good to create 2 pathways just in case your opponent block you and you can go the other way and win. It's not easy I play against the CPU so I like to be challenged.

[@fergalkidd91]

This literally works about 1% of the time, everybody counters it.

[@MrBubbyG_Official]

@@L_Ph0ng Yeah. I just tried this online and I lose because I try it. I focus on pulling it off so the other dude just farms me. Connect 4 is seriously the dumbest game to try to get good at yet there are people out here who grind connect 4. I don't understand.

[@Loooooooooooool1]

@@MrBubbyG_Official why do you think it’s the dumbest game to try and get good at?

[@visibletoallusersonyoutube5928]

@@Loooooooooooool1 also intrigued. Most games are equally dumb to get good at assuming games are dumb to get good at.

[@chaosorbCRB]

@@MrBubbyG_Official youre just a fool if you seriously think a single trick qualified being good at the game. Grow up and learn from your mistakes instead of concluding that "those grapes were sour anyways."

[@emilormasenvallersnes4016]

How to beat that strategy is not through keep playing the center collumn. It is keeping to the same strategy until the opponent has two in a row: then you dont block, but keep building your own row

[@char8169]

what if when you do the fake diagonal connect 4 he blocks on the very right lane

[@KeithGalli]

If this happens, I would recommend holding off on putting any pieces on the right side. Hopefully the opponent will drop a piece one over from the very right lane giving you the 7 formation. If he doesn't do this and continues to play the very right lane, just make sure to drop one of your pieces in that lane so that you are one away from four in a row three rows up and one column over from the right. If the opponent doesn't play the right side at all, just play smart and try not to give him any opportunities on the left side/middle. You will eventually win on the right side. Hopefully this makes sense! It's kind of hard to type out an explanation, let me know if you have any other questions. :)

Love the video. Have you played connect 4x4? Way more advaned and has lots of strategys, you will definatly be intrested.

[@KrosanBeast315]

if the Board reads 1 - 7 Left to Right 1:10 ... if Yellow goes first: 4, 3, 4, 4, 5, 4, 5, 6 or 7, 5, 5 is game. 1:53 the correct move is Slot 5. 2:44 Slot 7 is the correct move.

[@keyforlock4299]

what site do you use to play against online players?

[@KeithGalli]

Most recently I've been using c4arena.com if I'm on my computer and the app "4 in a row" if I'm on my phone.

What app are you using

[@itzalbee4273]

When u are playing and they go side,diagnose or upwards wait for them to get their 3 in a row so you don’t waste turns

[@Megalovania254]

I'm on a mission to learning how to always win multiple board games so I can dominate my friends and then they'll get mad at me for ruining casual fun games.

[@fakes7270]

it works but with some people they dont start with putting theyre coin over mine in the center and i basically lose

[@keyforlock4299]

just put your coin over their coin, then they will play center and just continue with that (assuming they put it next to the center)

[@Bob_Wade]

best tactic what I've noticed is to always put coins on the second bottom row when possible, eventually few columns will be completely empty. usually no matter what opponent does in the end you'll usually get 4 in a row in the second row by forcing the opponent to put one coin in to the bottom row

[@Jyoshi0]

Then git gud
