I understand white wanting to separate black queen/pillbug but the placement choice of blacks pillbug by white felt like a mistake to me when i saw it on the livestream (gate advantage vs proximity pillbug disadvantage). Maybe this one would be worth a commentary...
yes, I think he went for the same idea as in the first game where it worked; however, this time it's extended C so it didn't
@@stepanopalev it was a fun match to watch... thanks for the response!
I don't understand the moves...
Some moves are evident, like pins and blocks. Other moves become obvious after they're made, like filling in an elbow to release a piece. But yeah, there's a lot of subtlety to these games as well that's not easy to identify. I watch to hopefully learn something.
Crazy how Quad offered the draw...had it declined...and won the drawn out battle for position.
Is there a record for longest end game in a tournament? 😂 gg
How did color assignments work for the tournament? I assumed it was alternating but csigeee was white for game 2 also.
WBBW
Isn't the match now tied 2.0-2.0?
I prefer 48 bA3 wS1/ to trap the white ant in a kill spot and release the other black ant. The white beetle on top of the pillbug as well as the grasshopper blocking the white queen's flight square make this possible (not having the grasshopper the turn before made this a bad move).
Ahhh, but 64 bA3 -wQ would have taken advantage of the pillbug being overloaded...
What an entertaining slugfest! And a win as black puts him in good shape for the rest of the series :D
Great game
1) Something supernatural, or 2) You're a better Hive-player than putting up pictures securely on the wall 🙈
I’m not sure I understand happykiwi bringing out those beetles. Interesting game
Felt like white made a huge mistake forming that ring.
WFF17 suicides?
The position is completely winning for white
Stepanzo always seems to me like he's one move away from disaster, and then he pulls off some elegant move I didn't see and I realize he knew what he was doing all along. So much fun to watch!
As the games get played, will you be posting replays without commentary like you did last year? Those were great to help casual observers follow along.
Agree. They were very educational
What's the software to play Hive online like this?
Hope you have a blast. 🚀
Good luck Randy!! And share some videos :)
Can you analyze a game where somebody leads with Queen and then plays 2-3 ants? Thanks.
Will it be streamed anywhere?
Thanks. Just started playing on BGA and ordered a copy for home.
How 1:34 pillbug move is possible?
Anyone can explain how beetle could take that move at 1:49?
There is only one sheriff in town :-)
There is only one sheriff in town 🙂
Neato magnetic set. Hopefully it might become more widely available someday.
thank you
Do it!
That reference would be great to entice new players to give it a try. I've met quite a few folks who see the game being played and are intrigued, but a bit intimidated. So I think I'll create a similar handout to bring to my Hive club meetings at the game stores. I bet they'll help turn the curious into triers.
you got this!! even if i don't know this area well or wtv you do, but i hope you achieve your goal!! never give up
It's so great that this is happening! I have no doubt it's partly due to your contribution to the game and its community. Thanks for your books and videos! I can't make it to GenCon this year, but I wish you and all others who attend a great time.
That’s a cool way to play solo! Thanks!
On one hand, these high level games are amazing to learn from...but on the other, they're rather demoralizing! I can only dream of ever playing a game like this.
This is great! What do you call this?
man, Hive its just a game, enjoy it, dont overthink it. Dont need any theory or method, just live the moment and accept its good either to win or lose, the experience is everything 😊 Dont be pretentious like the chess players
where do i get one?
csigee has one of the most unique gameplays I've ever seen. The way he usually uses pillbugs as an attacking piece (either his own or his opponent's) is really something different other good players do it too, but he usually does it in an interesting different manner, and the way he often groups many pieces together to allow mobility is also different.
Death-group is A or H?
Both of those groups will be tough, but there are no easy groups this year!
I think I only came across a beetle gate once ever, as uncommon as it is I still feel like its an important thing to understand, if utilized it can greatly increase one's odds of winning.
Identifying and using a Beetle Gate helps one to Play Hive Like a Champion!
I've taken these axioms to heart when I first came across this video months back, honestly without you I wouldn't be able to win Hive.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
is your book available digitally?
Not that I've seen. Guess it's understandable given his books likely have a lot of images. But I just can't manage full-sized books at the moment. My Kindle Scribe would display them well digitally, I wager.
great game, and great analysis as always!
HOLLYYYY FUUCCCKK
I'd have to couple this with an AI to tell me if a solution was possible. It would bug me not knowing whether I could have won or not.
Same tool I use for my Scleral Lenses. 😊
yes, it is designed for lens pickup :)
great tool :D
I love using spiders because my opponent rarely pays attention to them.
There are very few things better in a game of Hive then winning with a Spider!
cool but what about fingers
Is moving the bee just not possible in these games?
It’s possible, but when was there a useful opportunity to move a bee in this game?
@@benharris3285 Could Black bee have been moved at 11:30, instead of the grasshopper? I'm sorry if it's a dumb question, I'm still learning all the intricacies of the game.
The last chance that White had to move the Queen was turn 13. Black's last chance to move the Queen was turn 18.
@@princeofcats548 The 'Gate' between the Beetle stack and the White Ant is too small to allow the Black Queen to slide through it. This is the 'Freedom to Move' rule.
I always trust that in all my games my opponents could lose these type of opportunities. 😆
i hope that my opponent will make a mistake and miss something, but most of the top players don't. that is what makes them top players!
Yes much needed)
