hi - first, I really enjoy your videos & I subscribed about a month ago! Second, regarding your game, I understand you said you were tired, but you missed a better move when it was your turn at about 25:30 (video time). Instead of building to the 6 Sheep/3 for 1 Port, you should have built to the 6 Sheep/3 Sheep with a Settlement. You would have added the 3 Sheep & still doubled up on the 6 Sheep hex. Also it would have cut off Purple who built there right after. It would also offer you a better chance to build Longest Road, and the 3/6 Sheep would add a much better spot for a future City than the 6 Sheep with 3/1 Port. Oh, and it also would block the nearby 3/1 Port (by 8/3) from Red possibly eyeing to build to it for a 3rd Port - for Harbor Master. I'd love to hear your response. And again, terrific job creating these videos!
When you counter offered during the trades, I don’t think you noticed it kept their original trade so you were requesting like 4-5 cards for 2 sometimes.
I recently discovered this game and am obsessed. New sub here, looking forward to improving watching your content! Hoping to reach grandmaster some day!
Noticed I missed your comment but I love to hear this. I try to make content that is 'easy' to get into but still provides some in depth strategy. Really happy to hear new players are watching my content! :D
It's really hard to watch your trades. i.e. asking for a 3:1 (including brick) instead of offering a 2:1 (2 of your cards for a brick) or asking for a 5th wood so you can 4:1 the wood and still have one left for the settlement. Instead you just constantly lose your cards to the robber. It's really painful to watch and I had to stop
Just found this channel and I love it!
Welcome aboard!

Ye I noticed later :( The biggest way I can improve my game is on these small things that I forget or don't notice.
you really should have built that city on the port to lock harbourmaster, big mistake
dude has nothing but ore and wheat, of course he's gonna city up on the port

I think you should always go for a pull if you are on 9 points and have resources to get a dev card

Early on getting more dev cards seems to be best....Increase chance of good dev cards.You might have gotten the monopoly card instead?????????
the 4,9,11 would have been a better second placement for yourself. I think you missed out on that better brick tile and the vital ore tile early game
