How to Stalemate Easy CPUs Fast (From a Stalemate% World Record Holder)

This guide is simply here if you want to attempt Stalemate% on easier CPUs, but don't want to watch world records (like me)

The basic idea of Stalemate% is to well, make sure all cards are used by the end of the game. The most simplest approach that I would recommend for such CPUs is to sell any cards that you can (besides property cards of course).

There is no real significance to using any of the cards that you pick up, including Pass Go cards. While they put one card on the pile in exchange for two, quickly selling and placing all your cards will result in you picking up 5 new cards. While it is tedious on the first hand, every subsequent hand only requires three turns to get a new hand, which is overall a greater investment, in terms of both quickly thinning out the card pile, as well as less time for the animations.

Also, just generally knowing what is in your hand is important. You don't want to spend time accidentally clicking the wrong button, and trying to sell a property, or use a card. You also want to make sure not to accidentally put cards in such a way that results in an early win.

Besides that however, it kinda comes down to luck, as CPUs sometimes take a long time to put things to put in the discard pile, or just play one card on their turn. At the end of the day, this run is partially skill, and partially luck.

So, happy speedrunning, or something 😊.
