What next, a dice mode without luck?

Even dice always

Risk doesn't work without luck, but you can try to balance it. That's why we have Balanced Blitz dice. We also need some form of balanced cards.

Having options like these to create the most competitive settings possible would be great!

I've suggested something like this not too long ago.

I can see that working out great with the right settings. What's new in this suggestion is the "removing cards entirely" part, which I find interesting. I'm upvoting this idea because I think having options like these doesn't hurt. Quite the opposite, I believe we would absolutely profit it.

Which is exactly what OP is saying.

I think the more settings / options there are, the better

What's interesting is that even though this suggestion is identical to mine back then, a few people who voted in favor of my suggestion didn't vote in favor of this one.

Which means voting can not really be objective. It's about phrasing and who is posting it too.

And I believe people are very much afraid of change, thinking: "This person wants to take away my Risk as I know it?" -> downvote, skipping past the "optional" clause.

Definitely not and I am very aware that a higher level these small luck factors is what breaks a stalemate, but I don't see why this shouldn't be an option, as you also quoted, the more settings the better
