How does the Rails to the North change in strategy? Is it good to take the aux action to add those little buildings up top?
Most competitive board game conventions seem to be focused on the in-person experience. I respect that WSBG is trying to supplement that by also providing a broadcast event for spectators and viewers at home. However, I do think there are some improvements that could make for a better experience on this front. A few of the games had the glare issue referenced in this video where it was difficult to see the game pieces. Perhaps camera testing in advance on site would allow for repositioning or changing the lighting to make sure it's very clearly viewable. Additionally, while the commentators were universally charming, sometimes the commentary did get a bit lost in the sauce. Perhaps following the sports commentary model is worth considering, with a paired play-by-play and color commentator. One person would be responsible to clearly state each play as it is happening, and the other would provide background and analysis. Finally, I think streaming all the live final tables at a precise time and on the same channel could lead to a better viewer experience. Announcing last minute what and when streams would occur and splitting them between multiple channels may have depressed viewership from the full potential.
Ooh yeah, that’s a catch phrase
Want to see the Designer put some of these tips in action? Watch Chris VS Asger here - th-cam.com/video/h5GFDCglGmQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=7osqNEcAydOpe0xm
Well, this bums me out. Promo cards are one thing, sure you get 2 extra cards to add to your stack of 100. But an exclusive track? That's huge! I feel so gatekeeped!. I can't go to this event, so I'm locked out of this track unless I buy one from someone flipping it for a ton of money. Not a fan of this.
It is definitely to incentivize people to attend the event, you're right! If things change we'd love to have you attend :)
When selecting your basic or advanced Upgrade cards try to go for cards you can recycle with salvage effect such as Fuel and suspension which lets you put the card back on top of the deck especially if it gives you a cooldown, gas pedals to get a slipstream, slipstream bonus cards, and of course 4 Wheel Drive (3x) +++ and 4 Wheel Drive 4+. Basically extra cards you can use for speed especially if you are gear one and cant fully get to gear 4 after a corner.
4/4 wearing hats. What is that about?
Like all great train conductors do!
Jesus, the first 5th of the video is ads for your own shit? Last time I watch this channel.
This was a good video! Thank you.
I’m not seeing the Saturday open gaming on the website yet - if I have a stay and play pass and if the open gaming and library starts on Saturday, does that pass allow participation? Just planning for flights!
Sorry for taking so long to respond! Yes! Anyone who is there on Saturday can play in open gaming or any other events on Saturday (we might have a few fun things happening for those who arrive early). But the library will be open on Saturday for those who arrive early :)
@@WSBGofficial Great, thank you!!
Indeed we're playing Cascadia and 7 Wonders with them! Let's see by how big of a margin they can win by 😅
You got the Chris power going for you though. Now I don't know WHO to root for!
Really surprised at the start of this game. I feel like I win just about every game of splendor in my group, and I would have locked up that lower right white 3 gem card as P1. That card was passed on for like 6 rounds. While I know many newer players stay on T1 too long, and build an engine too long, how are people passing on that card at the very start? It's almost certain that that card will more than pay for itself.
Seems like you should come and enter the Splendor event! We'll see you at the finals :)
I was here for the Dune Imperium Qual. It was so much fun! Great players, great organization, ready for vegas!
Great to have you there Blake :)
Love these videos! Seriously always find one for any new board game I try to learn, keep it up
52:24 the scoring explanation is a little confusing for me. Is the 4th round scored differently for the green side of the end round goals?
My favorite things to do in this game are Growth and Watering. The 4 common goals and 3 Ecosytem cards, 2 of them also common, are great guides! Composting cards from your hand is a fabulous way to score points. Triggering a bunch of actions when chosing Composting, Watering, or Growth is highly satisfying. Maybe I can get out to Vegas once I have enough money and vacation time in dental assisting. School starts August 26!
Awesome, we look forward to seeing you compete :)
We had a blast in the playin tournament at Geekway. I took second in all 4 games, but was fun to see my brother Brian win in a tie for TFM at the final table. Hope to make Vegas this year. Keep up the great work Chris!
Thanks Michael - I look forward to seeing you in Brass too ;)
Yeah, my game yesterday end the way you describing. I won three battles and in the last move may opponent lacking behind us won 6 point in one turn: two point battle, two alliance track, spice must flow card and intrigue X)
I've gotta say, for a tournament that markets on skill, there seems to be a LOT of randomness and luck in the structure.
The goal of the tournament is to crown the best all around board gamer. To get to the Grand Semi Finals requires you to win a tournament of your choosing and become that champion, only then does your board gaming acumen get put to the test and you have to see how well you do on something you're not a champion of.
5) Save your workers; 4) You will never fill your board (is matematical impossible) 3) Prioritize flexibility 2) don't waste your silver - 1) Don't clog your building queue "With Castles of Burgundy for every one of this tips it could go the other way, depending with specific instances.." Angela (winner 2023 CoB: 1) Study your map 2) Fight for boats 3) Early yellow tiles (look for tile 12, then 2,3,4,8) 4) Pay attention to your oponnents 5) Be ready to pivot strategies
New map, exciting! Can't wait to see it 😄
Even more ways for you to get confused by shapes :)
The Last Spike is a fast fun game. Tournaments for it are very fun. Looking forward to it!
Just to clarify, Capstone may publish this down the line in a map pack (WSBG doesn't have exclusive rights to it), but if you want to secure your limited edition collector's tournament map now, the number one place to do so is at WSBG 2024 :)
Will the map be released before the event? I'm sure contestants will want to practice on the map first
We'll show a picture of it when we get the okay from Capstone so that people can have a chance to play with it/think about strategies. Not sure on the timeline, but will be posted before the event.
Love these videos Chris! Keep them coming. Are most games played 2p at WSBG? I tend to only play TTR at 4p.
It depends on the game, but I believe the optimal count is 4. Some rounds depending on the number of players might have variable player counts leading up to the final, but our finals are usually 4 people.
Video starts at 3:25
U the best
I love this series, Chris. Makes me realise I don’t think about my games at all 😅 but I enjoy hearing how a strategic mind thinks! And as always plenty of notes to consider next time I get the game out
Love Arnak. Thank you for this, Chris
Good tips. I agree with 5/6 and think the last 2 you mentioned are very important. For starting islands, I think it's best to prioritize resources over points, which results in making a stronger engine. It also sets you up for your bonus tip, planting without them being able to follow.
Yeah, agreed. Choosing an island with a higher card draw or soil starts you off on the front foot.
Aggressive TR style is just so hard in our games, when my friends see that im gonna raise too much temperature and oxygen they always stops doing that so i have to do all that myself. So im on my own trying to end on 8 gen and then i have to put all those ocean tiles also. Everyone turns against that player who try to end fast, uses all sabotage cards on him so thats the hardest way to win in our games 😅
World series of board gaming? So a purely US league, then... Who else has the sheer arrogance to call something domestic a "world series"
We actually have 5 Continents and 11 countries represented, and that's just out of the competitors who are currently signed up, with more signing up every day. Perhaps you should sign up and add to that tally :) Our top 4 from last year were from Canada, the US, and Finland. Our top 4 from 2022 hail from Canada, The USA, China, and Italy.
@@WSBGofficialHe wasn’t ready for that 😂😂
With experience, too many bones eventually becomes incredibly easy, so easy that you can no longer lose it. This is actually the only game where I house rule by making it much more difficult. I haven't found a master way yet, but I think it's a shame that such a great game eventually becomes so easy that it becomes boring because you hardly ever lose and are so pumped up at the end
"Don't be sorry to hurt them if necessary" 🔥🔥🔥 love this
It’s pounds, not dollars. ;) and its pronounced „Nun-Eaton“. Also I don’t understand your comment about not being able to do 4 actions back to back but only 3? How so? If I’m last player and then first it’s 4 actions, isnt it? I’m curious, how do those strategies you mentioned work, is there a video for it? you mentioned a cotton strategy. What is it?
Perhaps because it's tricky in some player counts to do 2 decent actions and still have spent less than anyone else (in order to go 1st).
Or maybe just play the game and learn?
🙏
super valuable video - I went from zero to hero. Thanks!
Thanks for helping me improve my game Jeff and Chris. My first year I just winged it and ended up with egg in my face 🐣.
Great puns! :D
Those are amazing tips! Thanks so much. Wish I heard all these tips before jumping into a game earlier today lol
Loovvvveee this game
Can a player use their turn to exchange chips in their hand for different colored chips available?
You can always draw chips into your hand, but if you have more than 10 chips you have to discard back to the supply until you have 10. It's definitely allowable, but potentially loses you a turn of efficiency.
Do you think it's better to begin on a correr or on the center?
I think likely the corner is better, if you're building from the centre out, there's more of a chance to get blocked on both sides. But I think it also depends on how people visual things and what helps. There was an awesome visualization of the H piece in the finals that blew me away with the forward thinking. So exciting to watch.
I love this game so much

1:29:57 did blue not move the wrong color? Seems like he moved yellows instead of his own and shouldve gained a point.
Yup, this is rectified in a few minutes by the players :)
1:33:48 here
I’m still a beginner with this game and love it. I feel like sitting around the 0 mark for income the entire game is a good thing. My example is take loan, drop to minus 3, then sell and go back to zero. Any thoughts from other players. I’m trying to understand maximizing turns and not sure if this thought process makes sense.
That final was incredible, Scott had the line 5 blocked for the entire game
It really was a WILD game! :)
