Best games for 2 players with veeery low luck, or no luck at all?

Post by Etoclas »

Hi all guys,
I'm looking for 2 players game that involves thinking, strategy, with very low impact from luck and casuality.
Can you give me two or three titles that you think can suit the description?

Thank you,
Etoclas.

Hive - abstract strategy game with no random or hidden elements. It is the best!

I really like Battle of LITS, one of my favourite 2p games here.

Caylus is what popped in my head first. It plays up to 5, but does well at 2 player. Worker placement with zero luck, and just the teensiest bit of randomness in the setup that's hardly worth mentioning.

But the vast majority of abstracts have no luck, or very low luck, so if you filter to 2 player and abstract, it should give you a good place to start. (Just ignore the fact that Yahtzee comes up first in the list cause it's obviously high luck.)

Quarto and Quoridor are among my favorites.
