Battle Sheep - 2 player option?

I often play Battle Sheep and find that the first player has an advantage when both players are experienced in a 2 player game. Is there a way to create an option for a 2 player game so that you play 2 matches back to back, one person starting the first match, and then going 2nd on the next match?

yes yes yes. battle sheep is a game where going first is a huge advantage, having a 2 game option is the simplest way to fix it. they do that with lucky numbers in arena mode and it works well. in that case the amount of the vixtory is considered which is not the case in battle sheep. but yes we need balanacing for whomever goes second

First player advantage can be ameliorated by pie rule, or multiple matches as the thread suggests.

It's best to suggest this with a Battle Sheep table number: https://boardgamearena.com/bugs?game=47

There doesn't seem to be any development going on though.
