Re: slay the spire
I beat A20 defect for the first time
neow replaced cracked core with astrolabe, which turned strike strike defend into All For One+, Scrape+, Hello World+
All For One can be absolutely bonkers
Ornamental Fan and Kunai were great and was huge to get Med Kit and Runic Capacitor from a store
pretty lucky!
i feel like Defect can often be "i didn't get good orb cards and lost horribly" or "i got the good orb cards and won easily". this was definitely the latter!

Re: slay the spire
I just now noticed that the word aspire is basically just ass-spire. Given your recent successful run, what are your thoughts on this?

Re: slay the spire
In an impressive case of staircase wit, I'd like to add a snide remark to the previous discussion about whether snecko eye (I) would be stronger sans confusion. That would make it Bag of Preparation + 2x Lantern + 2x Machine Learning+
Don't @ me

wow, [you]. that all sounds terrible. i hope it gets better for you

To pay for the Machine Learnings

Re: slay the spire
but that's worse than what it actually would be, because innate cards still take up a card slot
you could just say that it's bag of prep + 2 pre-installed machine learnings
or maybe just 2 ring of the serpents

Re: slay the spire
Oh I think it's actually a lot better than snecko would be, you don't have to play the machine learnings turn 1, plus there's interactions with other cards/relics when you play a power
Oh yeah I forgot about ring of the serpent. I don't play silent

Re: slay the spire
clearing A11 with reprogram can be fun and clearing A20 with reprogram will make me die (not in the game)
is how i imagine this going
but perhaps I'll orb it up, we'll see
Re: slay the spire
I'm really excited to mod the crap out of this game but I want to feel like I have mastered the base game before I do so

the reprogram deck is basically the 0 cost card deck taken to its logical extremeJuri wrote: ↑Sun Mar 14, 2021 3:05 pmclearing A11 with reprogram can be fun and clearing A20 with reprogram will make me die (not in the game)

cards to keep in mind for the archetype outside the obvious 0 cost card synergy stuff:
-fusion+
-hologram+
-hyperbeam
-skim
-rebound
one upside is that the fusion core boss relic is basically just no-downside energy
i try to force the deck every time and get rid of the two defect starting cards right off the bat.
Re: slay the spire
Find yourself someone who thinks of you the way Juri thinks of hologram+
Re: slay the spire
i like how every relic is pulling huge weight here (except for Darkstone Pereprieaipt; such a bad relic)
(also i should note that's the +1 card/turn relic that replaces silent's starting relic; they look very similar

Re: slay the spire
if youre going to have only 13 relics thats a real solid set of 13 relics to have

yeah. i like that you get 1 strength basically automatically so it doesn't feel like a waste if you don't commit to itJuri wrote: ↑Tue Mar 16, 2021 5:26 pmduvu doll is such a better feeling curse relicBracketbot wrote: ↑Tue Mar 16, 2021 3:08 pmthe universe is trying to tell him something
