>Be a Stone Guardian>Get tasked with protecting the underdocks>This regal fuck shows up>Fuck him up pretty badly, but have to use your last resort. >"Hmpf, better luck next time, stone brute."Your response?
gee i sure hope I draw the right cards this turn otherwise I fucking lose
>>735037661That's why you don't bloat your deck and you still get draw cards.
Keep an eye on this
Look, okay, I got greedy.
I miss Spot Weakness and Heavy Blade.S-Surely they will make a comback! The Strength and Corruption archetypes are about to make a comeback, r-right?
>>735037850>No relics>One HPWhy the fuck would you go after elites in Act 3.Just what was your plan?
>>735037903Plan?
>>735037903I was stuck in a corridor and drew really badly in the previous fight desu.
>>735037946Oh, sorry. Didn't know I was talking to the actual Regent.
there are probably few cards I will never see because I won't pick garbage like curses
>>735038076You don't always get a choice.
>>735037850depneding of your deck that looks winnable to me
>>735037856>spot weaknessrupture is so much better this time around that i don't really care>heavy blade"sword boomerang but it costs 2 energy"
I will play when the game is on phones. Until then everything is fake about the game.
>>735038141That's because you're a brainlet. I'm dead turn one.
Regent's Exhaust package is actually extremely strong>Begone is a early game all star that's still usable in the late game>Tyranny is in the running for the best "extra draw power", drawing him deeper in to his deck and getting rid of his worst cards>Charge makes his cards that don't do damage do damage in the early game, and gets rid of cards he doesn't need in the late game. Maybe the singular strongest card he has>GUARDS!!! is maybe the singular strongest block card in the game for multiple reasons, it is so ridiculously versatile >Bombardment is Bombardment. You know why it's good The problem is that building around minions/exhausting doesn't really have a win condition. It's great to support stars but that's the only great thing Regent has in the first place When they add more card creation support this shit will go wild
>>735037856Heavy Blade is a legit meme card it doesn't fucking do anything
>>735038265It hits hard when you build strengthPretty easy to understand.
>>735038186no alignment? reflect? bigbang? particle wall? decision decision? anything?if you answer no then you made a shit deck
>>735038332Everything hits hard when you build strength That's the point of strength
>>735038265Except when it does.
That run was dumb.Literally always teetering between shit useless and oneshot anything.
>>735038403You have 676 strength. Every attack in your deck would win you the game
Tear Asunder is really goodI'm not sure if it's broken or just strong because there is a setup time, kind of similar to something like VoltaicIt is better than Voltaic however because it scales by itself in the background while you simply do shit you were going to do anyway, such as playing bloodletting or offering or inferno/crimson mantleOn my last run it was doing 58x22 damage against the act 3 bosses after just a few cycles through my deck, and the deck was kind of shitty and slow due to no offering/battle trance
>>735038350Not only did I see none of those cards, but I HAVE FIDDLE SO CAN'T DRAW THEM FAGGOT.
>>735038403Btw it only does 200 damage max against this boss due to its unique buff, so it is completely unnecessary. you just proved his point.
>>735038451But every other attack would have done 600 something damage. This does 5000.
>>735038484oh i didnt even see notice fiddle, stop making poor choices next time
>>735037527>damage race>if you dont draw enough block on the last turn you just diethis boss feels like shit and dying like that is gay
Why did they make her fat and surrounded by food but only give fashion relics and not food relics? She should be the feeder Ancient.
>>735038554Just play coop
>>735038131when it comes to some unique ones, there is always another option
>>735038551In my hand you see the only cards in my deck that draw. Fiddle was fine here, I just ate shit with bad draws the previous fight.
>>735038554You could just have a lot of health He's not hitting exceptionally hard, you know the boss your about the fight the entire act, he doesn't scale very fast, you have a whole turn before he blows, etc etcI have literally never died to Waterfall Beast
>>735038621forgor pic
Do I pick impervious in a body slam block build or is it just offering every single time?
>>735038621She gives you the cornucopia which gives you 31 health
>>735038484Why would you take this curse relic?
>>735038221Just find Dual wield from the event where you get one of the removed cards
>>735038714How the rest of the deck looking?
>>735038714Neither Impervious or offering are bad so it's more about if you feel you need the block or not
>>735038714The answer is offering either way, if you have barricade it allows you to play it faster, and if you don't have barricade it still cycles through your deck and makes your body slam more consistent
>>73503871499% of cases its "see offering, take offering"impervious is a very good card too.don't bother with body slam
>>735038541*200 damage because it's the heart
>>735038765>>735038798Plus another body slam and strike/defends off screen. I'm leaning offering since drawing a huge hand into armaments+ or bodyslams is probably too good to pass.
>>735038718you mean the fruit? There is no cornucopia on it.
I hate this conditional, temporary bullshit. Not only this card but the prevailing trend. It's like Spire 2 doesn't understand what made Spire 1 great.
>>735039070mandela effect strikes again
>>735039097doesn't this go infinite with turbo? assuming you upgrade it, it draws 2 iirc
>>735039097self status defect is in need of some work but its a nice idea for an archetype
>>735037661Deckbuilding skill issue.
>>735039097Conditional effects are a staple of slay the spire card designs
>>735039021You're already bloatmaxxing with only 1 draw card. Your shit is gonna crash if you don't go lean or heavy on exhaust, buddy. But yeah, offering, no question.
>>735039210you need another card that draws since it can't draw itself, and just turbo would make it draw both the turbo and the void so you need more than just that.
Why is defect so ass? I struggle to beat act 1 on A2 with himEasily the worst starting deck
>ascension 1, draft deck, big game hunteris there any other way to play this game?
Up to ascension 7 on all characters except Defect that is up to ascension 9And im done i think.Will revisit it on some time after some patches but i dont really enjoy having to min max my shit.I understand the people that spend 1k hours on these kind of games is just not me.Carry on anons
>>735038403Thats not in 2 is it? Strength stacking isnt worthless but it feels weaker in this.
Is there any situation in which the "lose all your max HP but upgrade your deck" is worth it?
Is it just not worth it to go for elites anymore?
>>735039372Stop me if you've heard this before, but Defect is one of the strongest characters in the game
>>735039367Yeah. so rocket punch+, turbo and skim, or coolheaded+
Buff Regent('s secondary archetypes)
>>735039540yeah he's in the top 5 for sure
>>735039524Sometimes I wonder how you guys are playing the game if you think Heavy Blade is some significant piece in Ironclad's strength packageLike seriously what the fuck are you doing
>>735039580How are you getting rid of the voids?
>>735037661Either kill it fast or don't enter the fight with 6 health
>>735039529silent was the only one who could really get away with it in the first game so that's probably still true
>>735039531Dodging elites is a viable strategy sometimesIt dependsIn my last few runs I farmed elites and rested at most fires and did fine, it's on a case by case basis
Any tips for early elites like bygone effigy on A10 Necro?
>>735039372Because you didn't find the card that makes you win.
money made me win
This game had like a budget of 1M and made 100M on day one lol.
>>735039648kek you're right, so you need compact too. in that case the skim would be unnecessary since the fuel would keep drawing rocket punch right?
>>735039531On average, it's not worth it. But if your deck's already in a decent spot, have HP to burn or there's a campfire on the way then why not.
show me this card and I'll keep picking it
>>735039684Regent should stop holding back and getting killed by the architect already!
>>735039531Relics feel weaker. Xecnar says that the new relics are good, but in my experience they're not significant enough to be losing so much HP over. Like 9 AOE damage at the start or 6 damage to random enemy when you do X is nice, but it won't win you any boss fights and it's not something you can build your lategame plan around.I feel in the current state of the game it's more valuable to save the HP and upgrade your best cards instead.
>>735039612I like having options. Running sly silent for the 12th time because its almost always a win is nice in a way but also boring.
>>735038403Was the first game always this ugly, god damn
>>735039372Frost stack while playing 0 cost cards.You have to get used to no permanent focus and instead cycle evokes even harderOrb slots are unironically a trap until you're winning hard already
>>735039727 (me)i just realized it still doesn't work because compact would need to be redrawn, i guess infinites are annoying to get on defect compared to other characters huh
>>735037527How good is Spirit Lift compared to Slay the Spire?
>>735039727So yeah, if you have 4 other required cards and like 7 removes, then this card might actually become useful and run winning.
>>735037741You have made her much less attractive
>>735039865Card art was significantly better.
>>735039852There are OP new relicsGame piece (draws 1 whenever you play a power)White star (elites give a free rare card reward on top of everything else)Probably more i'm forgetting. relics are still strong and they removed some garbage compared to sts1 too
>>735039531The Act 1 elites seem a little overtuned, and since Act 1 is the best time to get relics it can feel like a death sentence.
>>735039865YesIt was always the worst part of sts1 for me, the art and music sucked. At least sts2 looks slightly better
>>735040018This. I genuinely think act 1 elites need a slight nerf. Meanwhile act 3s feel the exact same as regular combats.I feel like you need to swerve them act 1 a lot more often. The unavoidable cost is too high.
>>735039881Ok but my problems are concerning act 1 so I get the starter deck plus maybe one frost card and one conditional 0 cost cardAny strategy tips you give me should be concerning default blocks and strikes or double evoking lightning
>>735039683Such an absurdly powerful card that makes itself even more powerful every use. Can never lose with it.
>>735040057Ok, the art being bad, I understand- but the music is iconic.
>>735039683I got 7 runs on defect and I've never seen this card offered.
>>735039683By far the best card in the game.
>>735040101Oh ok, then try this:Frost stack while playing 0 cost cards, brat.
Man Quadcast is insane. I'm loving the orb builds that aren't just spamming lightning.
>>735039337which is just a copy of mtg
>>735040163I disagree, I always play with the music turned off because it gets so annoying and sounds bland at best
>>735040090Some of the act 1 hard pool fights need a bit of a nerf too I think. Floor 5 fog monster or triple rat can easily end your run if you didn't get any good damage cards offered in the first 3 fights.
>>735038676is this fan art or the unfinished art they are gonna use in the final game?
I can't get past Act 3 with Silent
>>735040298Whatever you thought about STS1's music, 2's is significantly worse.
Remember that some of those elites and hallway fights are going to get swapped around. Reptomancer used to be a normal enemy
>>735037850>*record scratch* >*freeze frame* Yep, that's me. You're probably wondering how I ended up in this situation....
>>735040317Haze is basically the "die because you picked silent" enemy since a ton of her good cards are skills, even if you're just looking for damage. Hate that thing
>>735040442It's not in the game yet.
>>735040468Yeah, I'm giving that feedback soon. StS2's music very nearly isn't there. Compared to 1, it is actively bad.
>>735040468I don't know. I like the fact that it's less repetitive and doesn't play while you're looking at the map, and each boss has a different theme too. It still sucks but it's less annoying
>>735037850>Sown Glow+Nah you got this bro. Dunno about the rest of the deck but this is easily winnable turn 1 by using Glow+ to fish for Decisions, Decisions and then choosing Royal Gamble followed by Radiate.
>>735040471I would swap hunter killer and the triangle in act 2. The triangle would take a hit on health and damage of course.
So where do I download the female regent mod?
>>735040558He picked Fiddle, Glow is just worse Venerate for him
>>735040471Skulking colony needs to get relegated with a lower health pool or something. That thing is embarrassing.
I'm 22 hours in and I still haven't won. And yet...I'm having a BLAST.
>>735040734I think he's funny The 20 damage cap makes him surprisingly annoying as an elite
>>735040787I think he's act 1 elite that has killed me the most. It infuriates me that damage potions are just useless against him.
I cant believe this pure ratshit deck actually somehow made it to the finish line.
>>735040787It's cute how his health is right on the line so that the tougher enemies ascension makes him take an extra turn to kill.
CALTROPS? what the fuck bros this is HUGE
>>735040317The trick is to not take hallway fights past the easy pool.
>>735041190Now you can destory the bee man.
>>735039372literally one of the most consistent characters in the game, everything but all in on statuses is good
>>735041190>what if thorns cost energy
>>735041190First time I searched it it gave the the fucking hand drill.
>>735041190What relics are actually in the pool for that event? I got the Drill once, I know das Boot is in and that's the only silhouette I'm missing in my compendium, is it really just these two?
>>735041190Is sundial in there? Sundial my beloved I miss it so much.
I have no idea what I'm doing with Regent.
How do I play orb guy? I keep losing with him.
>>735039531Act 1 elites are worth it if you can tackle them late into the act. Otherwise, don't bother.I hate byrdonis so fucking much.
>>735041662pick 7 stars
>>735041190I don't get this event. So it's cards/relics that didn't carry over? Why did they bother giving it new art?
>>735041676just play cards idiot
>>735041190Really wish there was a relic called time capsule or something that gave you one of the trash relics and old cards.
What do you guys think of this card? It's only +1/+1 unupgraded but it seemed to work pretty well as a scaling solution for a few of my runs when I had the chance to take multiple of them. I've been playing all the characters so I haven't gone past ascension 3 yet. Maybe it will be a horrible pick later. Seems better than footwork to me when upgraded.
>>735040430The devs wouldn't make her sexy.
>>735041878It's good especially earlygame
>>735041878Fantastic card. Most colorless are pretty good, though some of them are more situational than others.
>>735041846I assume because they were used during private playtesting before the game came to Early Access. They gave it some art thinking might eventually make it but now it's in the trash pile.
>>735038554There are so many damage race encounters in this game I really wonder what's up
>>735041863Yeah but I can never evoke the orbs. Maybe I haven't unlocked the card for it or something but I am always lacking a way to evoke them.
>>735041932Are she and the Architect together?
>>735037850>FiddleWhy would you do this to yourself?
>>735037741SEX
>>735042069>I am always lacking a way to evoke themAnon. Just play an orb, it evokes any orb in the way.
I lost my first run after 23 wins. A4 Regent.
>>735042178Wait I thought creating a new orb just rotates out the rightmost orb and you lose it.
>>735040468I like how it sometimes changes dynamically depending on what's going on, very noticeable on the vantom boss fight
>>735041932She already is
>>735042225Another anon filtered by the game's most harcore mechanic: reading.
>>735041932Are you implying that the thick giantess mommy isn't sexy?I know it's 2026 but there's no need to be such a faggot.
Toasty Mitts is maybe the most fun relic in the game
>>735039865The first game looks way better
>>735042445
>>735042437Maybe fun but I think it's terrible
>>735041932I think she's sexy.
>>735040734He does shuffle some dazes in I guess but it really is pathetic compared to the other act 1 elites. Though it is worth noting he's kind of a counter to the ultra offense strategy that's the best way to kill the other elites, so I do think with a bit of tweaking he might skill have a place as an elite.
>>735041932Even with what we got I would pork that slamhog like the piggy she is until she squeals. Oink.
>>735042527Exhausting a card and gaining strength every turn are two EXTREMELY strong effects. If your deck is super reliant on a synergy or a singular card you shouldn't pick it sure, but Mitts will very quickly scale out of controlAlso that problem is a lot less of a problem if you have redundancy in your deck
>>735042445No.
>>735040468Musically speaking, STS2 is infinitely more interesting and more engaging. Love the Act 3 theme, sounds so good... and the variations are also super interesting musically. The first game had a somewhat bland orchestra-based OST, but in this one I really like some of the creative directions he took.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yANTjLTJASU I don't know I just really like this overall
>>735040583>hunter killer getting buffed to have elite statsP-please no he's already such a terrifying enemy.
>>735042536>>735042394>>735042286But she can be sexier
>>735040583>hunter killerI always forget this fucker isn't an elite after fighting itLooks like an elite and feels like an elite except for the health pool
>>735042749gaining 1 strength doesn't impress me that much, and non targeted exhaust is generally awful
>>735042815You just proved your own point. I kneel
Is there really not a single source of artifact in the game? Thats kind of shocking. I was expecting at least a special ancient relic for the defect or something.
>>735042815Cover her eyes with her hair.It makes her look like the cutest semen demon in the world.
>>735037759>bottom deck all my card draw >once I get it, I can’t out-draw the dazed Fucking bees.
>>735041431>Cards:ClashDual WieldEntrenchCaltropsDistractionOutmaneuverHello WorldReboundStack>Relics:Darkstone PeriaptDream CatcherHand DrillMaw BankThe BootIt's actually all junk
>>735042897>Is there really not a single source of artifact in the game?No, there isn't. I genuinely believe it was the right choice.
>>735040583The patch notes mention that the triangle used to be a multi enemy fight of some kind so I wonder what it did then. Explains why it's such a nothing fight.
>>735042990yeah, those are all good losses except Rebound. Argument for Entrench, I guess.
>>735043181I really like dream catcher. It is pretty good at helping you catch up.
>>735042990I must have done this even eight times by now and I've only ever gotten the drill when I dig for a relic. The fuck?
>>735042990Some of those cards are good, but man are those relics shit.
act 3 is supposed to be easy but unless i have god relics or card rewards i always lose in act 3 or maybe act 2 boss. i have no clue what im doing with my deck if the rewards and relics don't just line up.
>>735042990hand drill isn't as bad in this game, feels like there are more enemies who block
Necrobinder's starter deck should be weaker. Unleash should be a uncommon or something, she shouldn't have a scaling solution to start the run Conversely, Venerate should be much stronger. It's by far the worst star generator
>>735042815Fawkkkkk show me her bush
>>735043775unleash has good scaling but if you draw it before the summon card it's basically a strike and the summon card only blocks as much as a defend. Her cards are good but they have low numbers so she can easily get outscaled.
>>735043793Alright.
>>735040468Nah, the music in 2 is much better. The dynamic music makes a huge difference, especially how it changes between levels and between boss phases. I actually want to listen to the music this time around, instead of 1 which was always muted for me.
I really like Ethereal decks.Banshee's cry is insane.
>>735043775Necro has a weak early game though. You can't go for elites on Act 1 unless you pick up some strong damage early on because your only good source of damage relies on Osty not dying instantly.
>>735043775osty isn't that good early game unless you get tons of god block cards to let you scale osty and enough to beat the enemies scaling. i only have half a dozen or so but most of my runs so far i rely a lot on the ethereal cards that do high damage and the osty move that kills him for 9 aoe 9 block is better than trying to scale osty early

>>735040468My annoyance was that the music would cut during boss reward time in the first game, but I like the music in 2; Act 1 reminds me of SMT: Strange Journey in some parts.
>>735044535Yes.
>>735040468act 1 bosses have good themes, everything else is meh. I will reserve judgement until I can hear the act 4 boss theme

>>735044696Last player made it A1 max so that's ok
>>735044149das it mane
>>735044063That's a nice big sword you've been forging there. Would be a real shame if it could only do 20 damage.
>>735044479the first run with ironclad is pre-seeded there's really no excuse for losing it other than really bad decisions. You should have gotten enough draw power through battle trances or pommel strikes to never have a bad turn.
>>735044763thats fine too
>>735038940nta but why Offering? I usually avoid "Lose X HP" cards unless they do stupid shit. Unless I'm reading that right you get a onetime boost of 2 energy and some cards, then lose that card.
You do take the Chosen Cheese without fail, right?
>>7350394322cute
>>735042513>>735042759you need to upgrade your glasses prescription
>>735039824When you're at that level every new experience is worth it. Even dying.
>>735044890no, it's too boring
What the fuck were they thinking with this evil gas enemy? It's way too overtuned. Firstly, it debuffs you so you can't play more than 1 skill per turn, and then proceeds to summon 1+n minions every other turn that deal 8 damage each.It already ended 2 of my Asc 6 Necrobinder runs.
>>735044742at low ascension most of your losses will be skill issue, focus a bit more
>>735044867It does all the best things you can do in the game on its own for the price of hp that you will regain post combat.
>>735044867a lot of the good things you can do in the game require you to play certain cards together. Making a bunch of energy and drawing a bunch of cards for free helps you do that. 6hp is exactly how much your starter relic heals so it isn't even directly damaging you if it lets you win the fight without taking damage.
Unlimited power!
>>735045023trying to force you to take good aoe obviously
>>735045096Do any enemies have reflect? That would be stupid funny.
>>735038676grok just finish it in under 5 sconds.
>>735042815Nipple bumps?
>>735045165there's the 4x scroll of biting and the 6x axebot fight which will fuck you up when you kill 3 of them and then can't play anything unless you get very lucky
>>735045143I didn't even get offered any. I only had the one negative pulse I started with and doom is terrible against this enemy.
>>735045206ask >>735045193 to do it

>>735045334i mean i don't know if you can really complain about dying here after taking 5 combats already with no rests or other regen and getting him in act 1 and walking into it with 16 hp. some fights are just guaranteed damage to you depending on what you have
>>735045023>>735045334just kill it, it has like 80hp and the fartlets don't start exploding until turn 3either aoe or single target burst solves the fight easily

>>735038676>>735041932>>735042815What a bizarre person. Literally all of this is AI generated. Even the pretend "sketch" in some random adobe program with random crap drawn over it is AI generated. Is this really how the internet is going to be like now forever?
is replay completely different from one two punch? this worked but I definitely recall using one two punch and whirlwind wouldn't with the second attack not doing anything cause no energy
I'm getting filtered
>>735045193>ai>esl
>>735045762I'll believe in the 13.1%.
>>735045867If it's in the red, it's 100% AI. The percentage is a lie, really. It just looks for AI artifacts that aren't easily removable
>>735045770replay works on X cost cards. I fucking had replay 5 on my eradicate and it just fucking did 20 x dmg 6 times
>>735045770both should copy X values, I don't remember if I've tried One Two Punch Whirlwind but Double Tap Whirlwind 100% worked in STS1
>>735044890only if I don't need the hp immediately

>>735044742RNG will always be an issue, but you can circumvent it.>Potions before cards>Late ACt 1 elites.>Pick cards that answer a problem you will be immediately facing, don't pick cards that you're "planning" to compliment with cards you don't have. >Can't control the cards you get, but you can control most of the ones that go into your deck.>literally just stop and check if you have lethal.
>>735045762i think the one with the two asses should've given it away
>>735045770Yeah. Replay mimics any energy and resources spent on a card but One Two Punch only reduces energy down to zero for the copied card so it doesn't work on X cards.
>>735045668Dude, don't you see my cards? What the fuck do you mean just kill it?>>735045592I mean, it was either that path or an elite, if I remember correctly it was the only way without a forced elite.
Grave of the forgotten is my favorite event in the game. Just removed exhaust from Stoke right before the final boss. G fuckin G door doorfucker.

You know how in 1 you had to get the shards then you could fight the Heart, is there an equivalent to kill the Architect in 2?

>>735047225>using a controllershameful display
>>735047263there probably will be but there isn't yet since act 4 has been addedthey might change it around though - there's multiplayer now, and each player in multiplayer gets a different choice at fires/chests. so you can either make it so one person getting the keys gives everyone the keys (makes co-op even easier compared to singleplayer), make each person get the keys separately (might be weird flavorwise though gameplay's probably good), or make the party agree to sac a chest/fire (UI would be awkward)

>>735047859It's awesome, but the problem is it requires at least one other card of setup to apply vuln
>>735047707The bird does more damage than the statue since it attacks every turn starting from turn 1
>>735047859I feel it's quite shitty if you do not get the upgraded starter card to apply 7 vuln at once.
>>735047707>>dude 25 damage every turnHe does nothing for the first two turns and has a debuff that makes him take more damage on a percentage level for every card you play. It's very easy to nuke Effigy for over half his health before he even starts attackingI find myself leaving that fight maybe losing like 12 health at most
>>735047707you shouldn't even attempt to fight elites if you can't outpace their damage

In slay the spire uno I could play into the sentries with a shit deck I could tank a hit or two to kill the red guy I could prep on the egg who was the worst but I gotta be strong to kill any elite in 2 the worst being the worms that shield after you hit them
>>735048170Yes 10 damage and effectively draw 2 is a good deal for 1 energy
>>735045762What a dog shit tool
Enjoying the game but it's way, way too difficult to the point of comedy, compared to STS1 at least. I'm at A3/A4 and it feels harder than A20 (minus Heart) which felt wrong ..so I booted up STS1 and did 2 A20 + Heart runs back to back. I haven't won an A4 run in like 25 attempts.
>>735047996>no proofs
>>735048170It's a strike + that can scale in to the late game It's not like crazy or anything but it's ok
>>735048263I'm on A 7 with clad and A3 with all my other characters Might just be a You problem
>>735048263are you plying sovereign perchance? It's easier to get infinites in this game and truly it's the only way to win
>>735048170Biggest thing is it affords you the luxury of picking one les mediocre vanilla damage card that you would otherwise need for the early game, and late game it exhausts itself while putting back in your hand two of the (on average) better cards your deck now has.
>>735048393I rotate every win/loss. The game is just really fucking hard, even just numerically.
>>735047997NOOOOOO I CANT JUST PICK MY PATH BASED ON HOW STRONG I AM!!!!!!! WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO HAVE SKILL?????
>1 lethality>1 squeeze>take every osty attack you seecongrats, you won the run
>>735048263That seems pretty odd to me, my winrate at A20 in StS was like 33% at most and so far all my characters in StS2 are in the A7-8 range with only 4 losses accross all of them (2 on Regent).
>Lethality with Replay 3WEW lad. Necro is so much more fun than Regent.
>>735048607You probably got incredibly good at the game over the course of playing STS1 a lot at A20. I just think it's incredibyl difficult, I have far more losses than wins.
Honestly, if there's any elite that's too much, it's probably fucking Brydonis. There's just no down time in that fight. I take like 20 every time. It gives me fucking Jaw worm flashbacks
>>735048170it's middling early and only really starts doing things late or when you have multiple zero costs.it's probably best on defect due to the multiple zero cost common cards, but it's also decent on regent because of falling star and all the cards that cost stars instead of energy like gamma blast etcit's good if you draw it turn one so you can force a specific card but otherwise it's not very good because you're going to be spending 2 energy dealing 16 damage which isn't really worth it when you could just play the other strikes in your handworst case scenario it's 10 damage exhaust which is extremely middling compared to most commonsyou typically want transform 2 or silver crucible, but remove 2, transform 1, remove 1, random relic, and gold are all decent enough>>735048263howthis game shits out removes and transforms at you constantly and all of the events are strongthe only thing that could be said to be harder is that you don't get a 4th energy as often
>>735048263you probably just aren't good at figuring out whats good and just know what to pick in the first game. i have a friend like that who knows how to do one "build" with clad in sts1 to brute force to like a15 and hes struggling in this game at a0.
I feel like the bosses aren’t very balanced in 2. The difference in difficulty between GIANT ENEMY CRAB and the rest of act 2 bosses, or GAPING boss and the rest of act 3 bosses are comical.
>>735048689>howEncounters are WAY fucking harder to make up for events being stronger. There's also a ton of actual encounter rng because the underdocks is 100x harder in act 1 and if you ever get the doorman as a boss you just got a free win.>>735048708I mean probably till some extent but if I can do 2 A20 + Heart back to back on booting up STS1 for the first time in a year it's probably just STS2 being harder.
Now that I've cleared A10 regent I can confidently say, the game is eh.
>>735048765>or GAPING boss and the rest of act 3 bosses are comicalThe funny thing is that I can't tell if you're saying that in the sense that he's stronger than them or if you're dissing him instead. Happens a lot in StS2 discussions.
>>735047859The problem is that stacking vuln is only good if you've got one of the two payoffs for it, if you don't then you're just wasting energy and building your deck badly because you only need one vuln per turn average, and the payoffs are just kinda mediocre compared to the investment.
enemy balancing is why people have such a difference in opinions on difficulty. its really really bad and just introduces objective variance/rng and needs work before any card gets touched.
>>735048507osty needs too many cards and combo pieces it always scares me off of picking any of them in the first place. like why am i gonna risk picking poke until i have the 2 cost attack that costs 0 in a combo but if i don't have poke or soul gen already why am i gonna pick that either.
>>735048263you're probably just getting knowledge checked, the base difficulty of sts2 may be higher but a20 sts1 even without act 4 is way more difficult than sts2 a10
>>735048810I could see if good events came up.>OOPS IT'S LE BRIDGE EAT HP SO YOU DON'T LOSE YOUR BEST CARDS (Picks cards you don't want to lose 7 times in a row before finally fucking off to a disposable card)>WELCOME TO WONKOS BLAH BLAH BLAH BAD RELIC HERE YA GO>LE CHEESEMeanwhile, on streams>REPLAY THIS>CLONE THAT>BATH OF PAIN BUT BOOSTING HP LIKE FUCKING CRAZY + CHEST HAS A FUCKING PILLOW IN IT RIGHT AFTER TO RECOVER THE DAMAGEaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAADOIHDIOUH@(&DH@#U
I fucked myself with that shop Umbrella. I forgot about all the cards in the shop. Hit 2 of them after getting the relic. My 2 Reaps and Scythe with Replay got buried with garbage. Not even 6 souls could get me them in time.I've been building Necro different each time and I still feel like I don't know the right way to do it. Osty build, Doom Build, Soul Spam, Big Attacks + Energy Generation. I either get killed by the meditating Act 2 boss or mauled by Slime Dog on the 3rd head.
>>735048810you take more damage in encounters, especially act1/2, but you just rest more and skip some elites if you have to.
>>735048974The umbrella is literally a 'Don't pay to lose' relic. There is no, NADA reason to take it.
>>735048840>regentBeat the game, you did not

Which should I pick bros
>>735048920squeeze is borderline broken but it's dependent on you getting thatonce you get squeeze you're not playing an osty deck, you're just playing a squeeze deck
>>735048907>The problem is that stacking vuln is only good if you've got one of the two payoffs for it,Drawing 2 is extremely good. As is Dominate. The only Vulnerable pay off that's 'middling' is Bully, which is a strong 0 cost attack that will play a really big role in the early game And just having Vulnerable will scale your damage and speed the fight up.
How 2 add watcher in slay da spire 2If you end your turn enraged you take the damage you dealt unless you killed the enemy
>>735049053how does anyone consider regent anything but the worst character he needs four cards minimum to combo out
>>735049101usually the free energy, usuallyunless you want the full art kino
Ironclad's vulnerable package has extremely obvious synergy points with every Ironclad archtype and scaling method It's honestly hard to know when to NOT invest in vuln synergy
>>735048765none of the act 3 bosses really push your shit in and test you on specific deckbuilding challenges like time eater and awakened one can do, they don't really punish going too hard into a specific style eitherqueen kind of punishes ultra thin decks and decks without draw but if you're in act 3 with a thin deck that has no manip/retain or a deck that has no draw you're just bad>>735048810underdocks is easier than undergrowth, IMO.coral and terror eel (with a good split, which if you should always be able to do because you have three total turns to go in, the stun turn, the debuff turn, and the turn he actually finally hits you again) are both elites that don't really do anything so you only have to worry about the aoe fight
>>735049101Suppress is so strong
first ascension, barely made it, love this game
>>735048965I don't know, maybe. I'm currently playing another STS1 run and I'm probably going to win. 3 A20 wins with Heart in a single day against like 20 losses in STS2 where I'm not even at A5 with any character yet. It's much harder, I can't even imagine A10.I'll keep trying but the game just seems brutal to the point of cruelty to me.>>735049252>queenThis fight feels like a more punishing Time Eater to me.

Why is Defragment a rare now?
How do I upgrade Reagent's sword in combat?
>>735050000All cards with the Forge keyword upgrade the sword regardless of where it currently is
I feel like if you >Rework Borrowed Time entirely >make Dirge exhaust>Remove HauntNecrobinder is a near perfectly designed character.
>>735050000There's a relic that upgrades attacks and skills after playing them, or you can somehow get ypur hands on an Armement, but there's nothing built in the Regen's kit.
I've been winning my regent runs lately but it's always by the skin of my teeth
>>735049948Why is Consume gone and Biased Cog a boss relic card? We just don't know.
>>735049948They realized stacking focus was extremely degenerate so they made it harder to do
>>735050069But it's literally the only way to make the sword cost less
>>735050064Haunt basically says"what if shivs had draw 2?
>>735041878It's no fasten
>>735050000Nice quads
>>735049948Because you get a bunch of focus on common and uncommon non power cards now which sets you up for some pretty cool turns with hologram.
>>735049436this video as well as the other videos on this guys channel break it down better than i could but it's way easier to pursue breaks in this game than it was in spire 1https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFc8Bh2RYvI>>735050064you need to rework doom to actually be fun and also make summon not temporary hp + change unleash or move it out of the starter deck, IMOalso all cards that make souls can't upgrade to soul+ either

Does double damage to weak enemies affect my friends too or just me
>>735050374Seriously? I've spent so many fights thinking "man if only I could unlock the artifact potions, I could have made this so much easier"
>>735050356there are a couple of sts 2 tracks I like but yea the first game is better in almost every way.
>>735050743it only works for just you
>>735050374another defect nerf so you can't have biased cog with no downside
>>735041285Hell even the status package is good, Ive won a few juicers on the back of just spamming rocket punches endlessly Bulk up helps a lot to scale your 0 cost shit, I had that and rainbow ring + echo form so having 8 str/dex really keeps ip
idk how u can grind sts1 hours get your first a20 heart kill and not tear up at the ost during the fight and after
I had no idea people actually liked the dogshit sts ost
The game is easier than StS1 A20H.Anyone who thinks otherwise didn't grind A20H for consistency enough.
A10anons: How often do you win A10 runs?
>>735051082I have a roughly 50% winrate across all characters (playing random) over the last 10~ runs
>>735051052I have played StS too long to remember anything about its ost.
>>735051148a10? that's very good
>>735051052
>>735051160Yeah it's better than my sts1 winrate already which was below 50% on every character other than ironclad on a good dayThe game is just much easier than the first. I see good players with 5+ winstreaks already, so far my best winstreak is 2
>>735050643mind bloom boss, and the act 3 and 4 boss themes are also good
>>735051313mind bloom is actually the only good track in the game i'll give you that one
>>735050064haunt is the only way i can win so far. im always building for soul gen and so i just insta grab any haunt i find and it makes the game so much easier instantly.
Regent is too combo focused when you get a bad draw you end up taking like 30 damage and your run is fucked
Void Form > Echo Form > Reaper Form > Snake Form > Demon FormVoid Form would be strong in any character but it's uniquely strong for Regent because of it's interaction with stars. Completely fixes his economy makes makes many, many of his cards much better Echo Form is Echo Form. One card scaling solution. You all know how good it is. Reaper Form effectively reads "cut the enemies health in half". That's actually a really strong effect in many decks and opens up a lot of avenues for Necros non-doom and non-etheral strategies to go over the topSnake Form is stronger than it reads. 6 damage per card is a lot. It's competing with Silent's other combo pay off cards, but it is realistic to have a Silent deck that cycles and only has Snake Form as a pay off, and to win with it.Demon Form still has all the same problems Demon Form always had. It simply scales too slow. Even without Limit Break and Spot Weakness, Ironclad has faster, more efficient way to scale strength. It will always be bad but many people are convinced it's gamebreaking. So it'll always stay this way, because it's funny
>>735051246I still haven't lost a game with the silent.Currently sitting a bit below 70%, only beat A10 with ironclad, the rest are on like ascension 8 or something.This game is much more forgiving than 1, there are a lot more power spike opoortunities for the player, and the powerlevel ceiling required is way lower than A20H on its current state. And even if this changes with Act 4 and they introduce a ridiculous boss, the way to the top is also easier.Comparatively speaking (because there are enemies that hit hard on turn 1 on sts2) there's nothing as fucking ballbusting as>act 2>avocado + rat>cultist + chosen one>snake plant>the salvers elite>act 3>repto-fucking-mancer>the tentacle and the spaghetti monsterNo boss design punishes the player for doing anything, barely any greed checks, nothing punishes cardspam, etc. It's just easier.
i am bad at this...
>>735051716In terms of funVoid mogs, Snake is second (if shivs)
>>735051716>Headbutt (Demon Form) -> HavocIs the only way I feel like you can make Demon Form worth it.
idk how there are people with like 20 losses and 0 wins. every few runs you just get god relics and card rewards that just keep adding synergies
>>735048170its good but when you get it its competing with card removal or gold
>>735052151There's people out there that fundamentally do not understand how to play card games and they get filtered.
I want a character that lets me play as mobs
>>735037527Already beat all 5 characters I think necrobinder is the weakest gimmick with doom being poison but infinite worse since it only triggers AFTER the enemy has finished their turn rather than at the start like poison does. I ended up completely ignoring doom and just creating a soul build and drew cards until the boss died
>>735052151Card games aren't learned incrementally you unlock knowledge in chunks. People who can't win have some fundamental misunderstanding and will sky rocket in success rate when they cross that barrier.
This is for all the people who died to beeman - Supercritical Malaise
>>735052151Not everyone played 1000 hours of Sts1, you dork
>>735052259im saying that as someone who's first card game is slay the spire 2 tho
>>735050846I think removing artifact for players was a good decision, but bias cog being a boss reward now with no artifact feels so shit
>>735052424Yeah, sometimes a card game just clicks even if you have no experience. That's the point. Card games aren't a genre you get better at by playing them more. The guys who lose after a hundred hours are missing something important. The guys who win off the bat happened to understand what the game was about immediately. Getting better at any card game is a matter of unlocking each hurdle.
Does this proc Trash to Treasure?
Easiest to hardest characterNecrobinder > Silent > Regent > Ironclad > at this point you have to actually try >>> playing as any defensive focused build > Defect with perfect RNG
>>735039372IDK bro just get cards that channel at the start of your turn an unload on bosses. worked 4 me>>735047859Pillage to draw your whole deck + expect a fight. you dont need to scale vulnerable desu>>735045770Who would use this over radiance + stardust? You can get HUGE amounts of star power with gambit replay and other cards/effects that activate gambit multiple times
>>735052196go play downfall
I wonder why lagavulin matriarch is weaker than the elite version of sts1>takes 4 turns to apply debuff>attack for 10 and 17 instead of 20 nonstopIt doesnt make much sense
>>735052196My personal pet idea is an alchemist that creates and uses potions as his gimmickAnother one could be someone that uses curses somehow. like every time you draw a curse you get 1 strength. you could get a draw engine going and just get tons of strength built up for a big attack.
>>735052895because women are weak and stupid
>>735052636depends on what you get first, if you get convergence and alignment before a star attack you are using what you have
Forge does have big numbers, but this build wasn't as smooth as my previous build that was only star/energy. Pretty fun using Decisions, Decisions on Conqueror though.
>>735037527when is this game supposed to get good?
I'm now halfway through ascension grinding with all the characters, games still feel pretty easy, only really losing to lowroll act 1s or experimenting with stuff>>735037850>>735037946canonical regent
>>735038221Exhaust a lot of cards and generate a lot of stars and you'll be in a position to either go infinite or have a deck that's strong enough that it doesn't need to go infinite
>>735052563It does btw

Oh man, good thing the boss is the doormaker cause my wincon is basically deck cycling and Murder.
>>735038221Exhaust is basically always good to have it doesn't need to be a win con to be good.
>>735053259yeah it seems like strat is cosmic indifference to retrieve blade and then spend that turn blocking up and forging for next turn
>>735053259It doesn't actually make the sword do double damage each Conqueror, just extends the duration of double damage.
>>735039251Compact and Turbo are basically always goodVoid if you have the above or just really need an energy card
Going to host when I get home in half an hour or so. Anybody up for A3 multiplayer then?
>>735044063>Get 1 Bulwark early>Use it a few times in a fight>Slap a boss for 80-100 later to finish the jobNothing flashy but it'll doYou can see Forge cards got super nerfed in the private test patch notes so I wonder what the fuck they had against it when Stardust still would've been far better
Does this card even exist
>>735047530Some events you all have to pick what to do together like that knight you can fight to steal his key
>>735054241yeah ive seen it like 3 times now
>>735054241The full art cards are rewards from ancients
>>735054180I wonder if anybody in these threads posted feedback to MegaCrit about how nerfing Forge in private test was a mistake and it needs buffing more than stars do
>>735054180forge was probably considered too boring because all you would have to do is block all day and forge occasionally until you one shot everything
Can't believe the company makes millions and they still have putrid paint artwork. You are a real mongo if you actually buy the game, quite literally just MTG archetypes copycats but for solo play.
>>735054370starchads stay winning
>>735054410Parry used to Forge when it was first played and I'd still consider it a shit power
Necrobinder needs a nerf. All you need to go infinite and one turn any enemy is remove soul + borrowed time (as long as they're not multiphase). Add any flavor in between, do not pick cards after you have those 2. It's boring how the optimal way to play her is chipping away by spamming infinite souls.>>735054241Yes it's an Ancient upgrade.
>>735054241It's insane that silent is so broken that Wraith Form isn't even missed
>>735037527My response?>Steam clears and I see a giant whale...>Haven't I been here before?
>>735054370I have to assume that every tester was deliberately hiding all the infinites and deflecting away from them because there's no possible way they could've been missed by players with any slight amount of experience
>>735054583That sounds like a good thing to me though?
>>735054478i never get all the cards for an infinite in the same run still. borrowed time and seance are rare, cleanse and capture spirit/dirge are rare. i'll need just one more card and go through all of act 3 and still never get it. i even took an energy card as a boss reward because i couldn't get it from card rewards and i still couldn't get my last card
i cant believe this run so far jesus
>>735054697Soul Draw is busted. welcome to the club
>>735054649Seance might as well just read "you won the run"
>>735054697i wonder if its worth taking things like wisp just on the off chance you get the event that removes exhaust.
surely he is viewbotting
>>735054817friendship is better as long as you aren't damaging enemies yourself
>>735054697Youre gonna lose.
>>735054817Wisp is okay anyways
>>735054863wisp without exhaust would enable the infinites so its better than friendship in that sense but requires getting really lucky
I can't play this one yet because I still haven't beat the first one with Silent.
>>735054817Wisp is good for setting up powers, getting big turns off or using takedown after a fat dirge.
>>735054478cute sadako
everyone says just go infinite every run but then i prioritize the infinite cards and keep my deck small and lose or i skip the infinite cards then never see all the pieces again
>>735055081I just take generic good shit and 3/4ths of the time something broken presents itself anyways
who has the bigger girl dick: ironclad or silent?
>>735055173ironclad is not a girl
>>735055208thankfully my headcanon is superior to the dev opinion
>>735054476>>735054454Did the prenerf Forge even looked strong? Havent checked the notes yet
>>735055280>I am willfully retarded and coping in real-timei gotcha
>>735054843>paying attention to literally whosvacate the premises
>>735055446>I want to stare at a guy's side profile all dayyour gay
So.. does this game uhh... are the ascensions just total cbt simulator or do they like... erm... do funky shit like in Balatro where stakes make eternal card and shit?
>>735055496just say you want to suck my dick and start sucking already fag
>>7350554968 and 9 are the true difficulty spikes, that's about itmaybe 7 too, since you're less likely to high roll and stomp
>>735055496zoomer dogshit pictures are so unfunny
>>7350555727 was rougher for me than 8 through 10. A lot of strategies just become totally unrealistic on 7.
Finally
thank you vakuu you are as always my greatest ally
>>735055479>your gayYou're brown.
That took way too fucking longand I only won because I got lucky with a 0-cost Murder card that did 91 damage
>>7350558035 card remove is nutty
>>735055572I see, kinda boring. I really liked Balatro's stakes because there were some things that enabled more synergies. I guess StS doesn't need that because it already has those things like eternal cards in the base game.And in case some elitist thinks I'm saying they should change it, that's not what I am trying to say. I was just curious for myself. I think I'll probably just (maybe) try to get Regent to A10 because he's my favorite guy instead of getting A10 on all characters unlike getting everything to gold stake in Balatro.

>>735055823uh
>>735055823basedpersistant anon
>>735055893>the game no longer existsit's.... over..........
>>735055803What's the average power level of obtaining everything from a merchant for free? Is it worth the deck clutter?
>>735055823Based.
>>735055893How does Ascension for multiplayer work?
>>735055931>not updatedWhoops! Try this onesteam://joinlobby/2868840/109775242915520184/76561198043831607
>>735055934I like it on necro, what with being able to turn cards into souls or make them ethereal
>>735055963multiplayer has its own ascension and it's shared across all characters
>>735055934Absolutely not. Card removal is the biggest premium in the game.
>>735055963I have no idea! Join us and find out
omg omg omgYou guysI am giddy and shakingI was desperate to try the multiplayer, right?But I have no friends because I mainly play SINGLE PLAYER CARD GAME ROGUELITE DECKBUILDER COCKASS SHITFUCKBut...I approached a guy at work...and he agreed!And we did three runs tonight! With Discord voice chat and everything! And it was great!!!I think I'm in love with him now. This is what love feels like, right /v/? I wasn't gay before tonight but I am now, yeah?
>>735055963We were A3, but after you joined we downgraded to A2. It seems that it is capped to the highest ascension of the lowest player in the team. That's still okay right now
>>735055970gonna wait to hit ready until we're 4 unless you wanna go with just 3
>>735056063Wait nevermind now the Ascension is gone? I have no idea what's going on with this shit man. But we are 3/4 so we need 1 more person here
>>735056101WE GOT THE 4TH, HIT IT LET'S GO
Jesus christ that was close
>>735056054Stop posting
>>735050554So you lose in act 1 every time?
braindead card gamewill pirate it until it gets boring though
Necrobinder is so fucking retarded its actually pissing me off. Early access my dick nigga, they should have known better. Did they add this character so journos can finally win a run or what bros
>>735056140>bro struggling against the carpPraying for your luck to turn around in act 2 bro.
>>735054873>nyooo youre going to lose when you have the most insane deck
>>735056213>Help I can't stop winningWeird problem to have
>>735055823zased lobotomite anon
Surely the Elite dodging meta doesn't stick around on full release.
Badass Regent OP next please.
>>735056217I dont exactly have a win con in my deck just yet
>>735056398>>735056398>>735056398
pulled eradicate as my neow reward. shit is awesome
>>735056261Its not about bragging. My defect and regent winrates are in the gutter for instance. Its just lame how busted necro right from the start too
>>735055934Took it twice. Won both runs handily. it depends if you run a small deck I guess
>>735056258SOVL OVERLOAD
>>735054518Also there aren't many things that hits hard enough that wraith form feels important like in the first game
>>735056176Suck my femboy penis
>>735039531>>735039852They are making relics less impactful because of multiplayer balance considerations.Players can have duplicates of relics so they have to account for possible 4x 9 damage to all enemies at the start of a fight and shit
