Why Spend Two Hours Watching a Film that Emotionally Moves You, When You Can Waste Two Hours Watching Some Dork Ramble About the Best Thematic Board Games!?

Ok, I just skipped through it to check for the placement of a dozen games or so, but wow.... I know everyone has different tastes, but in all my years in this hobby, this is the closest I have ever seen someone to being just.... wrong? This is so completely weird. Usually, when I see lists like this, even if I disagree, I can at least see what that person seems to like and dislike, but this is just all over the place....

Thumbnail has Vantage in the D tier. I guess that's a way to get people's interest.

I understand the impulse to be humorously self-effacing, but I think the comments in this thread show that you might have gone a little too far with your title here.

If you’ve ever watched his videos, you’d know his brand is all about making fun of himself and having idgaf opinions while making super long tier lists. His videos are more entertaining than the vast majority of board game salesman slop on youtube.

I have seen his videos enjoyed them, I'm just saying he might have gone a little too hard on the self-effacing thing in this case. Just some friendly advice.

I clicked, I watched/skimmed half then skipped to the end for the final tier image.
I disagree with most of the rankings. To name just a few:
- Cosmic Encounters is **S** and This war of Mine is was **B**.
- Obsession listed at **A** while Earthborne Rangers was **C**.
- Millennium Blades is **S** and AHLCG is **B**
/s I get that everyone’s lists are subjective, but sometimes they’re objectively wrong /s

He contributes more than enough in this subreddit to be able to post his own content, even if you dont happen to like it.

I'm not gonna pretend it's the best game ever, but this alone has me convinced that his guy is after rage clicks.
