I've been away from this game for a bit (about 10 years). Back then, TMBR was the best strat to finish top100. Granted, there were a few others that could get there, but TMBR was the majority.

What is the best now?

Thank you for stating the obvious here. Now, if you are playing every strat possible, all during the same exact set and you never take a hit (all things are completely equal between all your countries, ie. same landgrab gains, same random events, same market) which of your strats would finish with the best NW?

Why does trading favor Theo?

tmbr requires both turns and cash to build/convert. there is a sweet spot for conversion to tmbr or dmbr.

going straight theo destock is better for land traders given their size.

if you're asking which destock strat has the lowest cost per networth, tmbr is the answer

Trading means huge land size. Huge land size means tmbr makes no sense because you're talking 20-30b+ to rebuild and convert.

Growing/Stocking and Destocking are not the same.

If you want to learn the ins and outs, join Evo :P

Forgive my ignorance, but isn't TMBR an jump strategy that can be used with multiple strategies?
