no-luck (or however the blue eagle icon is called) still has one major disadventage even in RT

it faveours smaller players which can be felt in FFAs when you ar trying to finish someone off,
you need to make 10+ moves in the time he needs to make 2-3 moves

NLC (no luck cycle) measures the time in the first turn, and bases the move order of that. For any turns after that, it works just like cycle does, where it cycles between players.

So the only difference between NLC and Cycle is how the move order gets decided in the first turn.

I do prefer normal cycle over NLC tho, since it eliminates any tricks you can pull off by being the slowest on picks (which would give you first move in T1). I don't like that its essentially a race to get to the game first on some distributions. And I find the whole timed aspect stressful as well.

NLC is my favourite move order. Right after Cyclic and Random!

if you ignore all other better cyclic methods, NLC is also my favorite

I prefer cyclic because it forces the player to pay attention to the history to find out the move order. I don't like cyclic because it can sometimes be hard to know the move order during early turns.

Why are you nerds still talking?

this thread is too good to let die

Well this is a thread for me to not follow. I don't need to listen to a bunch of walruses debate what makes a template complicated enough.

lol did nono hack your account?

nobody is forcing you to read 21 pages of our opinions, you can just ignore it without posting in this thread about how shit it is

I love nerds. The candy. Get your mind out the gutter. You nerd.

Actually, strategic template should not be complicated. That is the whole point. Simple to understand, simple to learn, hard to master.

I'm not sure if you realise, but nobody cares if you follow this thread or not. Some people will follow it, and contribute - awesome! Some people don't want to, and won't - good for them. There is absolutely zero reason to announce to everyone which choice you're making 🤣

I decided to put socks on today!

@LND I feel that if I put in the effort to read all of the pages. I might as well have something to say about it.

For someone who read all of the pages, you clearly took efforts to understand nothing

My brain was spinning to much. I am not that in depth.

If i may,

I have noted huge similarities between Battle islands V and Strat 1v1
Yet, one is strategic and the other isn't

Did we reach a consensus in this thread? May i know, what is it about strat that makes it... strat..?
What does strat 1v1 have, that Battle islands V doesn't?

EDIT: Oh shit! is it the reccon card? It MUST be the reccon card!
Does having a reccon card makes a map non-strat? Are we so closed-minded? D:

Strategic 1v1 is a template name, your point is invalid.

:O

Was i lied to?

Is strategic 1v1... NOT STRATEGIC?? :'(
