Board Game Arena

I'm trying to play more turned-based games. While not a top player and only like playing at max 5 at a time, here are my answers: 1. How do you keep track of the game? I personally keep detailed notes. Usually if there is something I need to sequence / claim. I write every card passed, discarded (ou...

Yea, I'm a known hater of point luna. Still shouldnt mean you should play some houserule.

All game settings are either official rules / settings or were approved by the game publisher.

You can filter by league in arena, but can only do it from the play now screen (not the game home page). There are still 100 elos in elite by the end of the season, but still. You won't get griefed as much.

Anyway to get a source for that?

It might be against the rules to create a second account to play as an expert with 0 Elo. But I'm not sure. And if it is against the rules, it's likely difficult to enforce. It's against the rules to play ranked games with more than one account, no matter if you do it with 0 elo or 1000 elo. Really...

Population this season feels normal. Did you go from premium to non-premium? That will cause it to take longer since you can't host games. As for a stats page, there is one: https://boardgamearena.com/halloffame?game=1924&season=24 Current season has 86k games played. Last season had 113k. Still...

Tough hand. On the start, I picked mining guild, donation, and IO research outpost. IO gives and extra card and mineral production for engine, biofuels I feels weaker to me. For cards I picked decomposers, inventors guild, power plant, building industries and methan. Cartel I usually dont keep if I ...

Different map / milestones / awards definitely changes the game and value of certain cards. I think hellas fits my strategy better because Im not the best at rush and am scared to go full engine at times. I also find myself over buying in draft on this map (more than usually for my bad habit), but I...

The most efficient way is to join the discord channel, I'd also advise you to just forget everything you learned on BGG, relying on stuff like "card values" will only hamper your progress. Btw. I am probably not qualified enough but if there is an audience willing to listen to a mediocre ...

Hey Dessp7, I was in a similar boat you were about a year back. Felt like I wasn't improving and not sure how to get better. I would recommend studying and for me that takes a few forms. Watching others play, watching your own replays, and understanding the value of cards, corporations, and preludes...
