    Some fun list ideas:
    - Piloting difficulty tier list, which gators are easier to pick up and master and which are harder to pilot
    - Each investigators' "second signature". Like Patrice with Cornered, Amanda with Practiced Makes Perfect, Sefina with Double Double, etc

    You should also do a list for the best cycle of investigators and player cards on average. It would help to know the worst cycles that I could skip for now as I collect all the campaigns.

      Not sure, if this would be helpful for you regarding Campaign expansions. Carcosa is considered the best among most players, but ranking the rest is very divisive. Sure, having their opinions is very interesting. (I'd very much like to see such a video from them, too.) But I would not assume, that these necessarily match your taste. Going by theme might be a better approach. Just be aware, that Dream Eaters is better to get, once you have a bigger pool of player cards, because you essentially need twice as many cards to play it the intended way, and Forgotten Age and Circle Undone ramp up the difficulty significantly.

    Hey I couldn't hear it due to audio issues but it sounds like a funny story so I want to know: at around 16:15, what were you referring to with Practiced Makes Perfect hitting?

    Russell, sit!
    Does Russell have thoughts on the strongest investigators?
    Do you have a secret to not having cat hair all over the table? Even without my cats laying on the table, it's like a gigantic hair brush, even without the high contrast of a black surface.

    • @PlayingBoardGames
      @PlayingBoardGames  Před rokem +7

      Russell thinks the strongest investigator is any investigator running Miss Doyle. He thinks Ashcan Pete is the weakest investigator.
      There's definitely hair on the table that the camera doesn't pick up, but I do vacuum it every day before recording.

    I kind of disagree with Bob Jenkins, but it could be my deck building. I'm playing him now, and it feels like it's just highlighting that Survivors don't get their best play from items -- they shine in their events, skill, and perhaps other assets like allies. He is a great healer, and support character, but my partner is playing Roland Banks and he's getting all the clues as well as dealing with the enemies -- even though I was supposed to be the cluever. I just kind of sit around doing other stuff, getting clues occasionally.

    • @PlayingBoardGames
      @PlayingBoardGames  Před rokem +1

      I was also pretty soft on Bob for a while, but then I played a Bob Eon Chart deck with Joey the Rat deck and it was gross what he was capable of.

    "Big Butt Baby" in Carcosa. WUT?! I'm currently playing Carcosa for the first time and we'll be going into scenario 7 later today. Have we seen the Big Butt Baby yet? I'm wondering if I missed some crazy-sounding artwork or if I get to look forward to it soon!

    No Trish? That investigator is nuts. Automatically evading elites and getting bonus clues like Rex is so powerful.
    Edit- Parallel Wendy is extremely powerful, though I’ve only played parallel front. Favor of the sun with Ancient covenant is nuts.

      Trish is very strong. I find Amanda's ceiling is a bit higher than Trish's though, which made her win over Trish in their cycle for me.
