Enjoy! if you like the music there's a link to it in the description. Can we get to 4.20k subs? just...no particular reason why :)
yes sir thank you sir😎
dawggggg i knew this channel was treating this game like chess
I actually legit started using this opening after watching your previous videos. It was a good way for me to start getting more into the theoretical aspect of the game and getting a rough idea of how one might determine the best move when you can't use logic.
As an avid Chess meme shitposter, and an eternal fan of Minesweeper, you've just hit such a specific niche that it feels like there couldn't have been a more perfect video. I'm sure there are others here that agree, and I know you MFers wear glasses too. Big ups to all you fellow nerds.

Ive been enjoying these analysis, i enjoy minesweeper games with gimmicks and this just keeps my love to think about this alive
Great video, I often came across this when playing with the solver. They give a good intuition on how to play similar middlegame positions imo, where the board is giving you absolutely nothing to work with.
I was about to comment on your other video about this opening, and I saw this new vid, nice explanations
Oh my god! I love that opening 🎉
;)
I love your videos. I legit study them.
bong are good for smoking some good shit , sometimes, when you smoke you do the cloud, thus the name bong cloud
amen
Very interesting method for everyone to try :)
Nice video :) Is there a substantial difference between the choice at 5:20 and the bottom 17% chance? I've always picked the bottom choice.
I wouldn't say its substantial. Maybe the bottom one its slightly better because you are closer to the other corner? Idk its probably a stretch to claim that :P
yeah I saw that opening in mscoach, that's what got me to somehow lucking out for #79 on mastery in the world
bel video
I didn't know you could speedrun this game
"You" generic or "you" me?
Can you do 1-3-1 corner next time?
But I think it’s very similar to bongcloud, and it doesn’t have too many lines…
I think it doesnt grant many exlanations, it basically gets you 2 more corners to click
Interestingly, versions of Windows Minesweeper from Vista and above guarantee your first click to be an opening (0), I wonder how this changes opening strategy...
Question: are the probabilities of exploding for each tile 100% exact or are they very good approximations?
Ok I looked at the readme and it is 100% accurate, but I would still love a video showing how the probability calculations are done and whether there is a better method other than generating every single possible board, removing ones that contradict and saying p(mine is in this tile)= #boards with a mine in this tile/# of possible boards
I mean, they are rounded up. There is a better method. I will talk about it eventually :)
You don't need to record voice in stereo, it sounds weird in headphones. Just use a single left or right channel from your mic in mono, it will be better. Don't sum left and right channels, it will sound weird also
Thanks for the suggestion!
Should I not bongcloud on Intermediate?
Yes you should, only if no corner is an opening though :)
Damn
