This road could have been a HUGE MISTAKE.... - Ranked 1v1 Catan

[@dsassignment5009]

Yeah, it's one of those games where the robber never leaves your tiles. No matter how good you are at the game you can't win with the robber on you the whole game.

[@DudeNolann]

Having the 9 blocked most of the game definitely hurt a lot. Can't win them all, but you can improve your chances of winning every game!

Dang DudeNolann. Rare mistake by you! Learn from it and grow as a catan 1v1 pro! Love the content!!!

[@DudeNolann]

This was a tough board to figure out as 1st, and shows how one small mistake can compound and end up costing you the game. Always trying to improve my game, and this match is a good one to anayalze, thanks for the support!

2:57 "I do want to start ahead on knights, but of course I pull the point and the seven rolls." Why "of course"? Had you already predicted that you would pop a victory point? If yes, why did you pop?

[@DudeNolann]

Of course was just used sarcastically there. I was looking for the knight but I didnt get it, and a 7 rolls directly after, of course 🤷‍♂️

​@@DudeNolann ​​​yea, I know. Nevertheless this kind of "post-fact validation of a prophesy that was never made" is absolutely rampant in the world of Catan. I don't know of a single Catan commentator who isn't doing it regularly, or at the minimum hasn't done at least a couple of times. And after being aware of it, I ALWAYS notice it. This innocuous "of course" infiltrates every Catan video, making me question the sanity of people whose sanity shouldn't otherwise been questioned. So I had to speak about it once, to get it off my chest. You were the lucky one to receive the criticism. :-)

Blocking the 9 wheat makes no sense… his 6 brick with brick port gets him free card + brick every roll, that should be the block.
