[@thomasanderson8446]

I'm glad to help you out Pete. There's one of two thoughts for Scotland cappers: 1) Man, I wish I had territory in Iceland. 2) Man, I'm glad I'm too smart for an Iceland cap.

[@FreePete]

LOLLLLL thanks for clueing me in

[@mhreinhardt]

I always pause at the start of the video to reason out where I'd put your cap and see if that reasoning is the same as yours. Even without the thumbnail, this one would have been easy. Also, wanted to give you another big thanks... I started playing at the end of last season and just made Expert with 12.7k skill points this season. Couldn't have done it without you! Keep it up brother!

[@FreePete]

Yeah this one is such a gimme. How could I not try to lock up that middle! And nice! GM incoming I bet

[@TheThirdMuskateer]

Would be nice if the game included a replay option at the end, so you could see what distant players were up to in the fog of war.

[@m1ar1vin]

That's a great idea!

[@PROGAMING-yu5ef]

I was thinking that as well!

[@pedropicapiedra4532]

So many people fantasize with this but SMG is sleeping

[@agoniaXdunya]

I would love that! Start a petition?

[@lollol35]

Great idea. Civilization had that option since the first version. I really love it :)

[@anoldlady8]

I wish you had noticed the capital count changes, there was a lot of seeing through the fog with it. White took blacks capital at 19:40. Orange took white(reds) cap at 29:55. Assuming black retook his capital from white at 34:15. Great game as always Pete!

[@LithmusEarth]

Useful Insight as I am watching this.

[@justinwkoehn]

Orange wins with a 90 or 120s timer. Can't play this large a map when you move that slow.

[@FreePete]

Mobile players probably shouldn't be playing 60s on big maps

[@askdjmqweqwe]

I would guess Pete still wins, orange closed their caps for little reason too often and didn’t hit off cap troops, they also tried some sort of block when Pete was setting. The skill gap was so large that without the centre cap and 4 other caps I think orange loses

[@UntouchableSSB]

At 50:38 you opened one of the caps and orange did not realize it, he could have attacked through the top part of north Africa which was all blue. Even if he did notice, though, he may have been too slow to reach one of the other capitals.

[@lexxdammit4124]

I like the spicy greed, but i think this time ruined your snowball. Think this way: Turn 2 you get +14, just take a card and cill -> this would probaly not even provoce white to break and you are in a nice lead And on turn 3 you could go for the +8, if white now decides he wants to break you have a nice stack to reciprocate Sometimes greed fires back :p

[@FreePete]

oh yeah! I definitely like to push my luck a bit

[@askdjmqweqwe]

Always better to try and snow ball if you can, otherwise you’re defaulting to grinding out an end game

[@lexxdammit4124]

@@askdjmqweqwe as i said i like also to snowball, the point was that in my mind it just was one turn to early

[@askdjmqweqwe]

@@lexxdammit4124 that’s the beauty of risk, everyone has a different way of playing!

[@cristianandrei5462]

White saw you take that +8 on top of getting 14 the second round, and address you, it was the correct play probably. Braking you the second time with you only holding +4 was probably wrong.

[@FreePete]

When players break some but not all it shows me they understand that these games are a matter of degree. So the total break with follow ups is fine, I can still win despite it. But they couldn't.

[@nabedane]

Also white was getting card blocked behind with the GB cappers which is why they had to out the stack up front early. Slowing down the guy who was at risk of card blocking them was the right play. Totally crippling Pete and then having no choice but addressing the next snowball in black was their doom though. Very bad shortsighted play especially for a master.

[@abrahamklafter9083]

39:00 after you threatened yellow 50 off cap stack, i had the thought that he is guarding his plus 4 Italy with that. Lols

[@owapoet]

White thought he could bully you out of your cap. When you proved to be too savvy, he turned his attention to a weak red cap. His plan would have worked if you were a weaker player. If he would have instead focused on the newb corner he would have had a more successful game.

[@FreePete]

Yeah pretty much this. I was definitely at risk of being card blocked given that he stopped my snowball but we don't see white's perspective so it's likely he didn't really have other options.

[@dmajor9982]

The moment white stacked away from black, I thought collab

[@runningriot6399]

For all the early game hate on white he really saved Pete’s bacon keeping black busy.

[@ethennass5331]

Am I awake when Pete is?! What is up Risk takers!

[@m1ar1vin]

Riiiiiiiiisk taaaaaaakeeeers

[@ma2zak589]

dude, that was a long one but a good one. great job my guy

[@husseinataya1754]

That orange player lucky. Never misses a set.

[@natorade4987]

Welcome to Friday morning television 📺

[@jp27whodey31]

So focking sick of all my opponent setting on 3 while I get dudes trade on 5....GAAAAAAAHHHHHHH

[@joekerr3638]

Send the Dudes

[@Richard-xu7kz]

Yeah, that can make or break your game ;) I've been finding that if you get a lot of one particular card and forced to trade three of the same that your trades end up being 4-5 trades most of the match.

[@LithmusEarth]

Excellent game, lots of dynamic play with that choked mid-point.

[@vobg1257]

8am vod cool

[@001niwrad]

Just watching the cap number changing during player turns it looks like white took reds cap, orange caps, didn’t have enough troops so orange stayed in Iceland took back a cap then reds original cap then took whites cap after you killed white so @35:54 black still has cap most likely based on that

[@nils.philip]

Yep, white had reds and blacks cap. Then orange took the red one. Black just got his cap back right before Pete killed white

[@tommasopistillo6390]

I thought that white took black's cap at some point, and that's why Pete couldn't see white breaking. Also, white messaged "Victory!" during black's turn, which I interpreted as black taking back his cap

[@001niwrad]

9/10 the victory emote is used ironically

[@tommasopistillo6390]

@001niwrad That's how I thought it was being used, lol. Guess we'll never know

[@001niwrad]

@@tommasopistillo6390yeah I realize that now - SMG definitely should consider changing the leader cap so that it highlights whenever the number changes or is reflected in the battle log because it’s so critical to seeing through fog

[@stevep5669]

Hey Pete, where do I find the season schedule. Cannot seem to find when current season ends and new season starts

[@FreePete]

friendsofrisk.com/calendar/

[@markkelso871]

Cap stacking is OP sometimes. You basically got heads up for free by being patient and fast.

[@scottcunning4221]

Trying to understand the logic to get better. When you killed white, why not try to hold the second cap even if only for one turn. No one else had cards to have a set. Couldn’t you hold it and see what Orange did and then decide to give it up the next turn if necessary? Or does it just not matter if you are going to end up giving it up anyway?

[@FreePete]

Two caps aren't necessarily better than one. At this point black is so massive that me pressuring orange means that black probably wins. I needed his help.

[@scottcunning4221]

Thanks for the reply. That makes sense. I often forget to try to force my opponents into each other

[@jamesstevenson3116]

There was an extra word missing on whites rank... It shouldve had bator on there

[@Richard-xu7kz]

Maybe a word infront of it, Stig- ? An association of disgrace or public disapproval with something, such as an action or condition. Fitting, no?

[@etaashdwaraka2455]

Hey Pete there why keeep taking Italy in the 1v1? Just sitting in Africa is an easier card block right? What was your thought process?

[@FreePete]

I'm a true Splitalian at heart

[@MrIhatemylife2]

That white cap hit to kill, was deeply satisfying

[@whitedevil548]

I love how at 34:43 you got double 69 troops😄 Dab Dab Dab

[@pedrodu3626]

With some hindsight, wouldn't say white played well at the start? You were about to snowball like crazy and he stopped you in the egg. He should have attacked black faster but killing you seemed right for the first few turns.

[@FreePete]

It's always a matter of degree. I think breaking some of me was correct but not all of me, because that starts a war.

[@ryanpalyo8181]

we early early at 4am

[@BXCWriting]

Anti-spoiler shieldwall!

[@XSquibX]

Why did you leave White's capital after the kill and why didn't you break black's bonuses again after the white kill? You killed the 1 person who had been breaking black's stuff and then let black just keep blobbing?

[@jamesstevenson3116]

My last game had 3 players doing exactly what white did all game, while red was getting +30 and they all ignored him :( I really don't get what goes through their head

[@compactinfinity]

Idk, I'm 13 mins in, and I understand whites play. I think he capped in top left scandy, had scandy, and was originally wanting 5 saw you with a god turn, and instantly saw you as a threat to his original plan. On the second turn, you take a third bonus and redirect your troops towards Germany for you 4th territory. So white, who placed his cap second, is not only in threat to losing his second bonus of Germany, is now sandwiched between you, and red who had capped 3rd and pinned white down I'n scandy. Here if he did nothing, he probably would have been sandwiched between your massive forces, and a stacking red cap. He woulda been severely card blocked and needed the extra troops to take reds cap and free himself from the trap. However. I still have yet to see what's going to happen with oranges UK cap right around the corner, lol. So yea I would argue that white isn't as bad as initially assumed, and maybe better since he was atleast aware of his position and realized had had no other choice but to attack you. I'm sure he could've possibly claimed Germany on his turn and you coulda been a good neighbor with eachother, but if you weren't a good neighbor his game woulda been finished on the next turn. It was impressive he held a stack out on Germany, given that you had a cap sitting right next to itand also had enough to take the red cap, it was clear that he was stacking his troops aside limiting you troops in order too defend againsr your cap but either red or orange possibly slammed they're troops anyway.

[@compactinfinity]

Oh and then the dude kills.red not byaaaaddd myaaaaannnn.

[@unluckygamer692]

But taking down Pete that much just means he has the same problem but with black, while being significantly weaker

[@compactinfinity]

​​ true, although he may not have realized where black was capped, yet even in thay cas he just merely went to weaken pete for two turns in order to defend agains both pete and red. His main directive was to defend both scandy and Germany and then take the red cap. Once he did that he then addressed black, and actually kept him down. Although his problem with black, was that now orange was coming in from behind with trades on 3. And thats what ultimately took him out.

[@owenjauregui]

I think he could have just denied pete the East Europe bonus. This checks Pete and says “that’s as big as you get” and also provides a trading zone for himself, Black, and Pete. This would also have kept Pete relatively strong to at least contest Black. If Pete goes bad neighbor then White could have played a similar game to what Pete did; “ok then you deal with black. However, it wouk have been more difficult because white is easier to card block.

[@compactinfinity]

@@unluckygamer692 exactly. I think what it really comes down too. White shouldn't have capped there lol.

[@KingGarey]

Well... it is the kill "Pete" strategy. LMOA

C'mon, you have to admit it. That turn 2 Eastern Europe push might be the greediest thing you've ever done on this map XD

Ive learned nithing besides how stupid pointlessly greedy people are between the suicide bombers and the ole double double team or triple team either on only requires 2 alts and usually cam make the other player or 2 bot out or kill each otger

I've learned even less

[@Noah-bi4ll]

Orange was in the corner the entire game. It's possible he had no clue where the cap was

[@tsherman393]

Gg orange

[@ri9tid36]

bro white was being so rudeee XD

[@billybob-cl6im]

Around 36:00 why didn't you ram the player to the east???

[@nils.philip]

Because he didn't knew that Black had no cap 😂

[@TT-Bricks]

Spoiler! I was screaming at the screen, white has 3 caps! Black lost his. But then Orange took the former red one and Pete couldnt see it anymore 🤣
