![]() I tend to gravitate toward birds that have powers that defy these designations. As we know, the green habitat is known for generating food, the yellow is known for producing eggs, and the blue is known for drawing cards. Perhaps one of the most potent Wingspan strategies I feel beginners could benefit from is what I call the "mix it up" strategy. Securing a way to generate food for your birds must be your first priority (how you accomplish this may change as the game progresses, however). Obviously, the opening food you choose should provide you with what you need to play one or more of your birds (preferably a green habitat bird, or resource generator) on your first turn. I never take a full hand of birds without opening food unless I am confident that the turns I spend gaining food early on will pay off big. That's not a hard rule, but you generally want options and food to give you a jump start in the first round. If you have birds that can provide you food early on without relying on the green habitat, then maybe you will be OK, but usually it is a good idea to have access to 2 food from the bird feeder as soon as possible.Īs a rule of thumb, I usually choose 2 food, and the rest birds for my opening hand. Drawing 1 resource at a time, in my opinion, slows you down too much early on, so it is handy to have at least one bird in the green habitat to enable you to draw 2 food (as the cost of one card in your hand). Also, I tend to ensure that I can bring a green habitat bird out early, hopefully turn 1. It goes without saying that you should stack your opening hand with cards that work together where possible. This is not to suggest that you can't modify your strategy as you go, but it does make for a slow start if you make mistakes early on. The birds (and resources) you choose for your opening hand, and the order that you play them in the first round will set the tone for the rest of the game. ![]() ![]() Playing your opening hand poorly can result in several wasted turns, which can be disastrous for your tempo.
