Go through the games of the top players at boardgamearena.com move by move.
I wouldn't recommend this. The games there might have a few good players, but it would be like asking a Chess player with 10 games for advice instead of the Grandmaster at Snellman.
Eh, many of the top players at boardgamearena are snellman regulars and know what they are doing. I haven't logged in in a few days but last I checked I was in the top 50 and some of the players in the top 10 include people like sprockitz and firexed. I'd loosely expect anyone in the top 50 or so to be at or around 1200+ on snellman with the top 10 probably equivalent to at least a D4 player.
The bigger issue with that advice in my opinion is that there's no Temple round bonus, no Bon10, and no extra town tiles. Also I think most games there use variable VP's, at least that's been my experienced. If you're practicing for the tournament you may as well just review games in tournament settings to maximize what you're learning. Still plenty of good things to learn from the boardgamearena suggestions but it would be a bit more suited to conditions played over there and a bit less to tournament conditions. I just disagree with the idea that there's a big difference in the quality of the top BGA players and top snellman players.
