The Fixed Friday Double Header!

[@jordanl4805]

Got a new dog a few months back. Today we took him to the vet to get snipped. A "Fixed Friday", if you will.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Lol! Good one!

[@jdlightsey]

In the second game red was definitely looking for opportunistic kills. You managed to beat him to the punch and salvage your own game after blue bullied you out of Europe for no good reason. Excellent game. Thanks for sharing it.

[@GrubHuncher]

I respect how much he genuinely loves that cat

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Yeah man. He's my baby 😻

[@rogergeyer9851]

Two tiger cats. How great is that? And with the same coloring shade as my former tiger cat. What's greatest about cats, IMO, is how unique their personalities often are, vs. 4 or 5 pretty standard "dog" personalities for something like 80% of dogs, in my experience.

[@ripum853]

I actually love fog settings, even watching it on here; the mystery and extra strategy it brings.

[@seaica3447]

So glad I found this channel. I used to play Risk with my father, I've missed this game! You're so humble and uplifting, can't think of anyone who deserves as much support as you! Also, love your cat!

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Thank you. I try my best to be uplifting. I'm glad I'm somewhat successful.

[@kevingraves8655]

That second game was a grand ol time. It was a lesson in keeping emotions in check with really reckless behavior.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Haha

[@gavinm894]

Well, that's the next hour sorted. Thanks for the awesome videos Pete.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

You're welcome!

[@ArCaNiS23]

Really great, how yu won the second game. So patient with the beginning against blue. and then striking, when the targets presented themselves. Great Game.

[@josephdahdouh2725]

loved the 2nd game, but it was really funny how you misjudged white and blue's war when blue was the aggressor than white retaliated. But, since you were out of camera, you only saw white's attack and thought he was the aggressor

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Ah yes. But coffee.

[@jdklein033]

I don’t and have never played Risk, but love watching you play. The combo of a great player and an authentic person is addicting. You keep making videos and I’ll keep watching.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

I'm glad you enjoy the show!

[@therbeeo5364]

I've always loved fixed, and definitely have noticed improvement since I started watching. My counter attacks are SO much stronger now that I don't invest every single troop I have into guarding borders. P.S. - those cat slaps make my day 😅🤣🤣

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

😻😻😻 Yeah man. It's an entirely different way to guard. And when you finally get broken you only lose future generation. Not troops on the board.

[@iconwolf9044]

Or even the need to hold a continent at all. The other day I simply abandoned Europe after having it broken and floated a single stack around Asia for a while while the other players sniped at each other, and was eventually able to make a comeback and win the game.

[@nuu3085]

[@micahhonig1575]

I don't even play risk but i've found myself a new addiction in this content lol

[@diasimanav7145]

HAHAHA, Gotta love it when your opponents do all the work for you. Blue was clearly in no position to do half the stuff that he did. Love watching you play man. Doing my 1st stream on Tuesday. Hope to check you soon.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Nice!

[@fatercoelho7476]

yeah, as soon as u took troops of iceland i was like "nope, u shouldn't have done that... he's going to break you, he has urges to break someone and it's not easier to break u then to break pink"

[@dangeroustangerine]

I'm new to the game, I started because of you. I haven't got an online win yet, but I'm having a lot of fun. Progressive tends to have more experienced players I think, and they have senses of humour. But in fixed people are a little more volatile. Virtually every other game you get someone who just stack-wipes you for no good reason, or they start a war with you needlessly, leaving others to build themselves up and take you both out. It's much more fun when people know what they're doing and when weaker players work together to balance the board. One thing that stands out is that people don't know how to call a cease-fire in a war, they just keep hitting each other until someone else swoops in and kills them both. It's really baffling why people make game-ruining moves at a point where they can't finish the kill, or even if they get the kill they can't recover with a set. Pyrrhic victories in a lot of games, haha. Not as much fun. In my favourite game so far, pink had been weakened and I had a line so I swept in, but I missed their last territory in Japan that I hadn't seen. Everyone was emoting with laughs and "oooops!" hahaha.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

It's round with fixed sometimes.

[@MacDaddyNumber1]

Hey man huge fan of your videos. I'm happy I get to watch them and that you are in a good place. Keep killing it Pete! Your videos have 100% made me a better player, thank you.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

It's an honour.

I always activate suicide mode when someone bullies me, need to improve that part of my game, in addition to every other aspect as I suck at Risk.

[@iconwolf9044]

That second game highlights the importance of being able to clear territories quickly. Magenta failing to take out White and feed you the kill changed to entire balance of the game. If he clears White, gets a good turn in and breaks NA he's got like a 20ish army in Central America, 25 territories and two continents. Your 11 is trapped. Blues 11 is trapped. With good turn in you'll have 30 troops in Khamchatka on your turn but if I fortify the 28 into Mongolia you're either going to have to punch that or punch through Blues three and my ten in hopes of breaking Australia. Either way you're probably dead next turn, especially if I have another turn in and Blue doesn't have enough sense to break SA with the 9 and not just retake Europe. The moment he hit East Africa I knew he was too slow and you were going to win the game because of your superior speed. The best advice I've ever gotten was turning off the effin camera animation. I'm still not anywhere near as fast as you, but it did speed me up considerably.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

You'll get there with practice.

[@iconwolf9044]

I need to spend more time practicing with the enter key. I'm so used to double clicking the mouse, but when you're playing single player speed isn't an issue. You know, having the option to play single player with a timer might be a useful improvement.

[@Dhemize]

Been a while since I last heard someone mention Alf hahaha thanks for that

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

😻

[@LewisCampbellTech]

I don't know how you weaken yourself so much assassinating players midway through the game but still win these.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Just lucky

[@thescott9245]

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

🙀

[@Moorooten]

Magenta/pink in the first game wanted a continent, hi was being contested for EU by blue (who had more troops) and the road to SA was "open"/only-ones-in-the-way so I could see why he did that move even if it was suicide

[@anrewgeck5000]

Nice exercise= self improvement

[@fatercoelho7476]

is it better to attack then to defend? i've often notice the attacking team tends to lose less troops then the defender, that strikes me as a bit odd

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

There is a slight advantage to the attacker.

[@crackazack510]

wow what a come back in game 2. 👏

luck seems to play a major role in this game. Is 'Fixed Odds" one of the possible options?

No. And you wouldn't want it. It would just make whoever acts first win

[@andresimmons8115]

Nicely done ✔️

[@Maou3]

I disagree with xerokee game 1; pink's move makes sense (maybe only just from a beginner's view) blue has a strong claim to europe, and pink wants out bc confrontation is scary

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

He wants out so he suicides and ruins his game and mine? I don't think he was sniping. I think he was just playing like a new player.

[@johnnyceagles]

If magentas bonehead move constitutes sniping the I get sniped every time I play classic and I dont stream

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Yeah I don't think he was sniping. I just think he was probably a newer player.

hey Pete I emailed smg about trying to get updates on the game but didn't get a response. is risk a dead game? when was the last update? wish they would be more transparent about their game.. really enjoy the content and ur cat lol

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Risk is not a dead game, but it is massively underfunded. SMG told us that there were 12 people working on Risk full time in their last Q and A. For a game that has every potential to be bigger than Chess with a vibrant competitive scene I would hope that Hasbro sees the wisdom in investing in their digital platform. Either with SMG or with a larger studio that could service the demand.
