Arena mode - 2 player

Post by JonTX »

I do not like this game H2H. It is all stealing and luck with a lot less strategy. Please make Arena 3 or 4 player in the future. I will not play this game 2 player. It is boring.

Arena settings are decided by the Guru's. you can become a guru by playing the game a lot. even outside of arena.

Good to know I'm not shouting into the void. I would hope the "gurus" read these comments. I don't see anyone telling me my opinion is off base. This game is immensely more enjoyable at 3 or 4.

I kinda agree, most games i prefer at 3+.

you can be a guru for arena voting, just play the game a LOT. even non-arena.

However, Arena is not meant to be enjoyable :D

I'm interrested about why do you think the game is only stealing and luck with two players.

I'm not very experienced with 3+ players, but the few games I played in this mode were really more related to luck than 2 players. Because when someone is leading the game, it's the target for everyone, and then the leader has high probability to change each round. It leads to have very close points until the last round. So the game is more often about the last round.

The 2 players game is very fun and complete in my opinion. Luck is involved, yes, but not that much.

SSP is one of the few games where it's the most enjoyable with 2 players. Way more options to go strategic, while 3+ feels just like a random luck game to me.
Also over 72% of players in BGG think it's best for 2 players: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/367 ... -and-paper
