Subject: Breaktrough Team Ratings

Hi, people!


I've noticed there are 11 breaktrough Teams in Brainking. Although, only 5 are rated. It seems we're not playing too much! ;)


Besides the team tournaments that are running, are any other teams interested in making some games? Tugas team is (I'm it's captain, so... I think I can talk for them). I suggest matches of 4 players. Who's in?

Mousetrap: Oh no, in iyt are some good players too... my team is also very "young" in this game, but we have been practicing in a few "internal tourneys" (that was our strategy: practicing with "comented games" in order to learn with each others some tricks of the game).

Gabriel Almeida: I have never played Breakthrough on here but I have on iyt. So our team probably will not be very good but will sure as hell give you a good run for your money! (I hope) You can always blame it on me if not!

Mousetrap: Yes, I hope we have a lot of teams in this tournament... and please, no "artificial ery strong teams" as in the other one, with Josualitko's team... this is not good for noone. I think we need a lot of competitive and equilibrated teams...

This was the first team tournament of breaktrough (and the only one until now). I was absolutelly against the "spirit" that was under the "construction" of this team. Nevermind, it looks that I was the onlyone thinking that way. Here we have the results.


I wish we could have a more fair competition (and more stimulating). Is there someone else interested in a team tournament of breaktrough?

Hi. Pysso have created a big tournament, I think it will be very hard to get 64 players for it, but it would be a really nice goal for breaktrough in Brainking. Please, subscribe it and tell your friends to...!

ruby2shoes: Hi, Ruby. I have my own strategies, I can share with you.
- Your first line must not be moved until the game is close to finish;
- Columns A and H are the easiest to atack, because each piece (in other columns) may be defended for both (left and right) sides. Playing and atacking in Columns A and H, You will notice you can "break trough" with only 2 pieces (against the entire defensive line), and in the "middle" columns you need, at least, 3 atacking pieces;
- "Line positions" (Ex.: D3, D4, D5, or D3, E3, F3) are strongest to defend, but "diagonal positions" (Ex.: E3, F4, G5) are strongest to atack;
- You must not forget the main goal of the game, wich is very diferent from checkers games. It's important to get a solid game until the 20th move (depending on both players style, it can be slower or faster), but than, you must get ONE piece to the end. Not all of them!!! ;) It means that, with both defenses openned, you must not be stronger or more "closed", but simply... faster!
I hope you enjoy that amazing game (it's my favourite one, such as Gothik Checkers).

ruby2shoes: Well I'm not sure how much help I can be, but one of the things I try to do is not move pieces from my back row until I need to. It's like your last line of defence, so to start moving pieces from your back row is in my opinion just giving your opponent someplace to attack.

Then on the flip side, if you start to see your opponent move pieces from their back row, I will try to "attack" in that area.

Try to give & take - that is if you are going to move your piece so it can be captured, make sure you can capture back. (And if they are able to capture again, make sure you can at least keep it even and not lose more pieces then your opponent.)

Those are a couple of things that come to mind quickly.

Hrqls: If someone wins both games in a two games match it will it be accounted as a victory for white or for black then?

Marfitalu: *nod* 2 game matches will be shown as a simple game in the statistics though

Marfitalu: another way to get a draw would be a 2 games match with both players win 1 game

Marfitalu: I don't think if you play the game out, it will not be a draw, but sometimes players agree to a draw for one reason or another.

Like backgammon, which should always have a winner, but has 227 draws (of course that is out of over 400,000 games - so not that many)
