"guaranteed victory" in a game that is so much about luck. Sure mate.
Other than hoarding up the houses, everything is pretty general Monopoly strategy I figured out a long time ago. Basically try to get a monopoly ASAP and then develop it ASAP. I've found that strategy to be good, but it depends a lot on luck. Sometimes despite everything you try, the only monopoly you can get are those horrid green properties and you're pretty much doomed.
I've yet to lose a game by just buying literally everything I land on, mortgaging things if I need the money to do so
You are very likely to win actually. Me and another buddy in highschool learned this trick, and somehow we always had 2 other suckers for friends who would join us.
The only "Luck" involved was if it was gonna be me who won, or if my buddy won. The others stood no chance if they didn't know of this strategy.
But it's not that advanced of a strategy. Everybody I know plays like this. Everything else is straight up trowing the game. And you quickly notice that after loosinga few games to people who actually play it good. And if everybody plays like that it becomes pure luck
Most people think it's best to upgrade 4 houses to a hotel
If you trade and have good charisma, it is definitely more than just luck.
