How can you tell if someone wants the second place?

In this 6 player game , 3 of us survived. And I played very aggressively and was a major threat , but player purple moved his entire troops right to the player white troops, which made white suicide his entire troops into purple and basically making me win the game.

I'm not sure who deserves to be the second, I still feel guilty because I made white the second .

Why does the game let you play against people you’ve already blocked ??

On two separate occasions recently, I’ve played against someone super obnoxious who ruins the game. At the end, when I go to block/report the player, it already says they’re blocked, meaning I have dealt with this annoying person before.

What’s the point of blocking someone if we can still join the same lobby. The game doesn’t even bother to tell me that I’m in a lobby with someone I blocked??

(To call out this bum, General Magar just sat on a stack and passed turns in the middle of the board entire game. You suck! Stay out of my lobbies lol!)

What's the average win rate in Risk?

Mostly I play 4 people but recently more 6 people.

Fixed game balanced blitz. And few with fog on.

A question for Henri

Why were you making angry faces when i was fighting RigTown in South America? Our little dispute over that continent had nothing to do with you.

Congratulations General Bobal for the win, i'm glad you didn't quit when you lost your capital. It would've felt bad to see one of these two on the first or second position.

I should have won this match. This is unfair.

I'm left to play with bots.

Do hosts have the ability to drop people from ranked games?

Twice today I had a win virtually locked and got DCed both times. I was not the host either game and this never happens when I host.

I’m assuming people have a PC command they use to glitch people out. I know it’s not a build in feature.

What sucks is you can’t report b/c I’m out of the game. At least on mobile.

I’m convinced this game is rigged. How is this possible in balanced blitz?

Was do they allow cheating?

Ive seen the same two accounts play together several times!!!!! They always play capitals and use each other's capitals to block for each other. Its allows alliances turned off. I report them every time and nothing happens.

Ranked 1v1

I've been a grandmaster awhile now in FFA playing mostly meta settings and recently started 1v1s for the first time, I soon realized that auto starting position on pretty much any map is effing retarded, but nobody wants the join my manual setup or even semi auto setups, i end up sitting waiting for 5 minutes and I cant wait that long. 1v1s are like the bullet chess of risk, its addictive like crack. I end up getting impatient and joining some psychos game auto setup, true random bs or some stupid 70% domination game on France that you can win first turn, its like flipping a coin and ive lost my sanity playing 600+ games over the last couple weeks, I unistalled the game eff this eff you eff everyone

How do you get people to stop camping and help stop someone steamrolling?

Recently ive moved to expanential capitals.

Often if I'm playing a game, and I see someone steamrolling, I'll make an effort to slow them down. If I'm in last place, I'll consolidate a bit, but then focus on getting in their way, hitting one territory etc.

With this being said, when this happens other people just camp in their corners and not stop it. Sometimes to try get these people to do sometimes I'll give them a "nudge" by hitting one of their territories, but they just go for me instead and hand the game to the steamroller.

Is there any tricks to getting people involved?

Exponential helps, as if you take someone out you're rewarded, but it still makes it difficult when someone gets 33 troops compared to 14.

Is there any point in alliances?

Are alliances completely useless? It seems players just do what they want anyway even to the detriment of themselves.

Banned for a day?? Why?

Why did I get banned? I came out of a game (winning, I must say) and suddenly I’m locked out for no apparent reason? Huh?

I have seen other people say that if you play with the same person repeatedly even if it’s purely coincidental that you get punished for it, is it true? Because that would be some real BS. What kind of an AC system is this? I happen to play 4-8 hours a day (yes I’m currently unemployed lol) so, that I eventually end up playing a few more games with someone on a pure random basis does not seem to be such an incriminating evidence? Is this the best they’ve managed come up with?

How much does slidering still affect gameplay?

When watching old videos from early 2025 or earlier on youtube, I see that players could frequently lose like 5-10 troops when attacking a 1 stack with "Balanced Blitz" dice if they don't slider. They must have patched this as I've never seen this happen since I started playing earlier in 2026.

However, it does seem like slidering still makes a difference in some scenarios, particularly for hitting 2-3 stacks early game or bigger caps? Though it's hard to do a statistically significant experiment to confirm. Have the devs released any notes on exactly how slidering works vs. standard balanced blitz rolls with max troops at stake?
