Orange was a homie all game, you should have communicated to them to attack green. Instead you went psyho slamming into him when he might have wanted second, I think green was communicating to orange to give them second too.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

I think so too

[@gothia1715]

In hindsight that really makes sense and would ve been the winning move, no doubt. However, in the heat of the moment you gotta make a decision. And a straight decision is often better than doing half baken stuff. Thats why i understand Petes move.

[@clutchcure6821]

agreed just turns on him at the end and ends up getting 3rd which is the place he deserves for doing that to him.

Turned his back on his game long homie … bit him, well deserved 3rd for that move

With your 34 stack in Southern Europe, orange was probably thinking you might smash through his back door and break South America. Leaving 15-20 in Southern Europe might have given him a better clue and more confidence in your alliance.

Nice game pete and nice 69 stack and unusual editing style this video

[@leightonp8496]

Reminded me of how hotbunz edits her videos

[@davidholland4713]

52:00 There is a way to communicate you want orange stack in middle east. You attack there and leave your stack for some seconds, tell orange attack my territory, leave it a few seconds, and then fortify back. On orange's turn, you wait until they hit middle east, give them well played, and if they bring back their stack you give crying emote, so orange knows which part you liked and which you didn't. There may be other ways. Just a thought.

[@WrightyFPL]

Interesting.. I hadn't thought of that. Would be intrigued to see if it works in practice. The counter point is often players that tell you what to do with lots of talking & emotes can be annoying + off-putting. In this scenario, as an intermediate, maybe orange will have got the message, a beginner may just clart into you for telling them what to do

[@davidholland4713]

@@WrightyFPL Yes. Probably not worth actually trying. In any case, I don't think it was in Pete's interest to set up the trap for black, but not clear on the alternative play.

[@jonnywenttowar]

Hey pete, what is ur reasoning for attacking orangen first in the endgame? since u where good with orange the whole game and determent already, that green is the better player, wouldnt it have made more sence to team on green (if orange would have been down)?

[@CrypticCobra]

His reason- to avoid an extended 3 player end game where he is the target. As you saw in the round before it was clear both orange and green were gearing up to take on pete as he was now the threat that needed to be dealt with. Orange was weak while pete had a large troop advantage (In a 3 player end game the 2 weaker players if they are good will always team together to get rid of their shared threat. If they don't and fight each other, the top player is guaranteed to win. There are times when you might want to fight for second... but that's usually when you can't communicate and work with the other guy, or the top player is just to strong that you both can't take them.). The hope was to equalize the board with green and have an even 1v1 with green. Ultimately the math was not quite there, and that final 30 stack orange ran into him sealed his fate.

[@CN86443]

I really like the editing in the intro it’s cool imagining what ur videos may start looking look since ur still improving on what’s normally a simple stream clip

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Must always keep improving.

Hey Pete! Just wanna say, while I haven’t loved many of the editing styles you’ve experimented with over the past few months (though I totally get why you’re trying new things), I really liked this little preview thing you put at the front of the vid! That’s one person’s feedback, for as much or as little as it means to you. Keep it up!

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

[@WrightyFPL]

You and orange homies all game and then you don't work with him to give him 2nd!? Green was the Risk police and duly punished you!

[@dracula3811]

Plus green was more dangerous than orange. Green should have been attacked first

[@WrightyFPL]

@@dracula3811 Orange's obvious play was to suicide into someone in hope the other gave them second. The Peteman was so close to a truly glorious game here, but I get that you wait for ages for action and then only have seconds to make the pivotal play to win you the game. Pete is obviously good enough to figure that out, just did a whoopsie on this one occasion!

[@steelhammer103]

That was some good editing for the first 30secs!

[@davidholland4713]

This 4 player version of deadliest trap on black is most favourable to orange and green since they go on the turns following black. Whichever doesn't eat the main suicide can first strike you and get first before you act. Not sure how or if you can use this information to your advantage when you go before black. Maybe it's not in your interest to set up the trap?

[@danielkanewske8473]

That intro is genius! Must have taken hours to edit

[@ad8d8diejnwvqxzfayuejn3n3]

So just out of curiosity, the round you take Africa and South America from orange, why not just keep green 42 trapped in north, by not fully capturing South America? Gives you another turn and possibly avoids him hitting you while his second biggest army is trapped.

[@STR4nG3boy]

I see you have a new editing style for intros haha I like it

[@HellaSmokinGMA]

These videos got me to playing a LOT better at risk. Just recently had a game where I had Europe but Africa was controlled by a bot because someone left before the game began. The bot kept attacking me and it wasn't going anywhere so I did the right thing and suicided into the bot so it didn't ruin everyone else's game, and so my ally in SA could have my cards. Worst game of ranked Risk I've ever played.

[@Scitch87]

47:00 I don't think you all would be growing at the same rate. Depending on the cards you get your lead could significantly decrease, increase or be lost.

[@colin2utube]

Liked the rationale at 15:45, orange didn't want to remove black from Asia because removing black there increased risk for orange, wheras you DID want to remove black from Asia because you wanted to increase risk for orange ! To remove someone from Asia, or not to remove them from Asia, THAT is the question ! (very Shakespearian !)

[@Kylted]

That's a really awesome intro to the game

Risk seems like a game about patience more than anything else. All this tension all game long and it ends with everyone just suicide attacking each other knowing that they're going to lose in the process.

[@swaggyjimmy]

You're right, especially for high level games. Because of that, the "meta" rules use progressive card bonuses rather than fixed ones like you see here.

[@llovvorn1]

Great ending for learning humility

[@honebeadsmith5937]

First time viewer. :) Good stuff. I'm 53 but remember the long drawn out risk games we used to play at my Uncle Ed's house in Shipshewana IN. (good ol Amish country) My uncle, cousin Scott, and my dad and older brother used to battle till the wee hours. I was only 12 or so I'm guessing. When we first started we must not have read the rules adequately as we didnt know about chain fortification and when you conquered a country we only could move 3 troops in. Talk about SLOW games. I didnt realize how Polish my family was until we actually learned the correct rules. :) Anyway thanks for some good strategy and making me think of some pleasant memories.

[@Abandoned_One]

this feels like every game i play, opponents are always playing by the rule of "i get to hold while you dont", throw some random hits in there for good measures and on top of that godly dice but when i watch pete in most cases hes like "this is another great example of the friendly neighbour" - i think hes got like some aura to persuade his enemys to play more decent

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Oh no I get those games too all the time.

[@unluckygamer692]

Always keep in mind that there is a huge survivorship bias to what you see on KZbin. KZbinrs will generally only upload the most fun, interesting, and high level games from all the games they play. I wouldn't be shocked if Pete played for 5 hours and only gets 1 game that is worth uploading.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Welcome!

[@andrewcollins2060]

You made the first alliance break move. You honestly forced his hand. I would have given orange second as well.

[@Anon97123]

Alliances don't last forever. When thr black player suicided into Orange it became pretty clear orange would finish third. It wasn't in Pete or Green's interest to let orange get back to their level so there shouldn't be any surprise/bad blood if one of them decides to start attacking orange. If you didn't capitalise during moments where there's a troop imbalance the game would go on forever/always become a stalemate. Basically as the Green player I would've expected Pete to attack Orange after Black suicided into him. So when it came down to killing one of Pete or Orange I would've killed Orange first because they were naturally going to finish 3rd anyway. When Black suicided into Orange that's partly due to the way Orange played, locking his troops inside his borders and making it easy for Black to break him. Eventhough he got suicided into he did deserve to finish 3rd so as the Green player I would've given second to Pete.

[@WomackKP]

It's funny that if people don't team up with you to block and only attack one player at a time, whilst not guarding your own borders, those people suck. In my opinion, RISK is exactly that and is meant to be that. RISK Double and triple teaming the weaker player isn't much of a risk. You may as well just play two accounts so the double team is guaranteed. This is probably what caused the no-guard double team to become a learned strategy to begin with. I've been playing risk for 30+ years and 20 years of real-life gameboard play. Irl Asia and Europe are the hardest continents to hold. Europe is incredibly hard, if not impossible. Irl rarely does a player randomly decide not to break continents that are unguarded. That always sets you as a target by the legit players.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

If you're playing in a bad neighbour meta on the tabletop then I can see why thats what the game looks like to you.

[@charlieday6425]

I've tried searching for the thread Pete mentioned at the end about improvements to troop slider etc, but can't find it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

[@skinnylove1018]

34:08 the evil laugh is 100% deserved. These are absolutely Amateurs 😂

[@alexanderelsen9397]

I mean orange suicided into you to give green 1st place it's only fair that green gives orange second to reciprocate since his victory was enabled by oranges sacrifice. Makes sense that orange would side with green over you, more likely to get given second place which is what happened. Though a little lame orange disconnected early I don't play this game much, but to me that's a little rude.

[@Zenox499]

my logic and strategy was literally exactly the same as yours in this match Pete , yet i am still only winning approximately 1 in 7 games i would say and stuck in expert for most of the season , what am i missing ? I seemed to get slammed early quite often even though i do try my best not to appear too threatening early game

[@colinfagan539]

I think if someone only plays fixed, they are probably a rank or two below where an equivalently skilled prog player is (aka why bird blintz is expert/master instead of GM). There is just so much variance in fixed games between the awful play from others and frequent collaboration, that even if you are good, your rank gets depressed. (It's also more difficult to punish bad plays since the cards don't get high enough to steamroll). If green is a regular fixed player, even though his rank was intermediate, he probably is more like the level of high expert or master.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Yeah classic fixed GM's are a higher level

[@chutchut442]

Definitely overextended on attacking Orange. Green was the bigger threat and you should've stayed allied with Orange to potentially get 1st and 2nd rather then 2nd and 3rd.

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

[@nureddinz]

I don't know if it was logical, but I think orange didn't stack at middle east bc they wanted you to take Asia or/and Australia(black) and wanted to attack north America(green) after black was gone. I'm total noob at risk btw, so this might not make any sense.

[@MatthewBouyack]

[@kevysrandomstuff5835]

So many have no idea how to win a game, why players get up set when they attack me while a bigger player has the dom, so i go all out to make sure they cant win, i cannot understand why lower players not work together to knock down the stronger player,so at some point anyone can be your friend then they also be you enemy, these games do happen but very rare.

If Black had stayed in ME would they have finished something other than 3rd? By card blocking Orange, Black would upset the balance of power which might create a war.

[@AdamsAGD]

i think black and yellow were kinda smart, yellow obv suicided but when one person makes a move it causes others to do the same, plus those games are so much funner to watch than see card farming for 30 turns and slowly let the person with more income get 40 troops over the other and then just win by default. black should have stayed on greenland in hopes green took australia and asia and also hope for alliances to break as he took 40 orange off the board for you.

"It's so frustrating to me when people play dumb" Well... if everyone did what you expect, you wouldn't have much of a game...

You don't have to do dumb stuff to be unexpected. Pete isn't a superhuman that has calculated every viable play and as such can in fact be surprised even with smart plays.

[@ELXLNL]

You assume the way other players think too much, you don’t leave room for the second, third or fourth irrational moves that could be made, not saying you can defend against everything, especially irrational moves, but you can’t rely on the logical play, and what’s this about you don’t want Australia or SA, I’m a grandmaster level for years now, and I didn’t get there by ignoring the strengths of Australia and SA

[@TheKillPeteStrategy]

Interesting notion. How would you suggest predicting or playing around irrational moves?

[@ELXLNL]

@@TheKillPeteStrategy defense defense defense, irrational moves are mostly triggered by attacks or (imaginary) threats, the defending party in a quiet corner is much less likely to be prone to irrational players, with your logic you will win 25% of the 4 player games, but you will lose 95% of the 4 player games against inexperienced players
