Then you're not very good at connect 4  Starting at the edge basically does nothing for you. You limit yourself by playing there first. So much in fact it gives player 2 the advantage. | ||

You should never lose, ever, regardless of whether you go first or second. These are children games tbh, paper football is where it's at. | ||
