I am excited to have my understanding of reality itself changed! But first, we must establish parity.

i was looking for graph theory tutorials because i'm in the process of designing a game. finding this series was a happy accident! i hadn't thought about the strategy of connect 4 all that much, but looking at the structure of gameplay this way is really helpful for my design process. thank you very much for making this 🙏

My classmates and I developed this strategy back in elementary school together and we even called them “automatic wins” where we would try to make the “7” shape

This is the strat that I used, I knew it before the vide by myself and I learned that I'm not that bad after all

[carterf]

Amazing vid - are there any other channels/videos that you would recommend for learning more strategy?

[sorin_markov]

Did you make up your terminology or get it from somewhere?

[thermitty_qxr]

In chess, its called a Zugzwang (every move is a losing move) or a double-attack

Edit: :)

[mattjazzml]

This is good. But would be good for more regular updates.
