I can safely say Russia doesn't often get picked.

The main areas that are picked in 3v3 games are The Islands the Center and possibly Portugal and Bulgaria Greece that area.. Excluding Turkey of course..

Anyone that wishes to improve at Europe 3v3 should read Dead piggys guide it pretty much hits the nail on the head.. https://www.warlight.net/Forum/100499-3v3-europe-nc Feel free to invite me.

I think more players need to be brought into thsi guide when playing as people knowing this and learning this has pretty much won the game which is a problem for me atm..

Good template possibly need more information to younger players..

all the pink region you see on those maps is where dead piggy was before surrendering :P

That's a huge different level in calibre of players obviously the chances of getting a bonus alone without being contested is 0.5 and alone :( I see your point tho but still theres a difference between your level and the open games level.. Which is what I'm talking about.

Russia is not good really. WCR yes, but not the rest. Any good team should have a counter there. I can't recall a single clan league game won with Russia being dominant

The first game was won because Mo wner for spain, and you had bulgaria and pressure from iceland to eliminate gnuff

The 2nd game was won controlling the middle

The 2nd game against piggy and gnuff was won by islands and norway, not russia

I am on my phone so i do not feel like checking the rest, but it looks like you won by controlling the actual good areas and that allowed you to take poor areas

I do agree.. In this template you need fast quick income. WCR*? The bonus with 3 in Russia.. Would be a bonus contested.. So you do need 1/2 picks there 1 atleast.. But it's a template where contact is quick and fast so you won't be having the turns to get the bonuses becasue by the time you get the bonuses in russia you will lose contact in the islands/center.. So for the early game where the game is really determined russia isn't good.. Latter in the game it's possibly a crucial element to the game :)

yeah sure
but the thing is,there are some players who always want first 4 picks in islands + norway + denmmark
and there are others who always want first 6 picks in islands + center + norway + denmark,and then they pick wither benelux+swiz or benelux->WCR->swiz or WCR->counter of WCR->benelux+swiz

there lies an opportunity for their opponents to pick all 3 russian picks and nearby counter
those picks are far away from islands and center so it becomes very hard in late game to beat that strategy,that is if you could make it to the late game without major errors in the center & islands

3v3.

Team A/Team B.

Are you saying one member from the team should go for the 3 picks in russia? 1 nearby counter?

You got to remember WCR Will be contested tbh I would almsot cluster pick in it just to sure I get no precence in Russia I find it risky.. You will have a precence there in russia no doubt it's just the question can you get rid of it without extincting in Islands/Center or whatever..

I don't think so tbh..

But yet again not experianced enough in this template to make huge claims.

But every game i looked at you won pocking islands and mid. You got russia because you got income from the good spots. IF you can truple and get lucky to have no counters, sure. But you had counters to russia in every game i saw. They just lost them to fast income

i disagree.

actually:
game #1: moo and piggy get bad picks and was over after picks.
game#2: triple pick Benelux was horrible
game #3: uncommon game, with better gameplay we could have won
game #4: it's won by norwy and Island of darkpie
game #5: i take Gb and both wazz and sephi waste their income to fight me. Plus wazz give up russia was a mistake.
