3 hours trying hard to get Hellraisers to auto clear battle at A9 Ironclad and lost everytime but I picked up the randomest shit cards possible and cleared it stacking shields with Barricade and Body Slam. This fucking game man
>>736577431One day maybe, here's the result for the curious

>just learned I can climb ascensions with custom sealed deck gamesGoodbye boring base game and fuck your strikes and defends
I don't care if people say stars are the only way to play Regent, Forge is fucking fun
I am so fucking retarded at card games holy shit why did I buy this game it just makes me mad at how incredibly retarded I am
This was a very funny runDo people sleep on the prismatic gem? Cards from other classes doesn't seem like that big a downside
>>736577818>True grit and demon form are drawn in my starting hand>The boss is the doorman so he doesn't attack first turn>Vakuu inmediately exhausts the demon formMany such cases
>>736578504Prismatic gem is a good choice to make as Ironclad whenever you have ashen strike or evil eye, because shivs will give you insane protection/scaling.

>>736578319Stars isnt the only way to play regent, but you should always find some use for stars beyond fallingstar/meteor shower.All his gimmicks have stronger cards that require stars, or star cards that fix the flawsFor example, alignment or cloak in forge so you have the energy to spam sword.
>>736578685My star synergy is I click on reflect when I see it
>>736578504if something was good enough in the first game that it had to be made a boss relic in the second, it's probably very strong
colorless cards are always better
>>736578759prismatic gem is buffed this time around though, it gives extra energy.
>>736578504No it's probably the best energy relicIt just drives slowplayers crazy because it fucktuples the amount of potential variables you have to "optimally" consider

>>736576421>35 cards>insane decklmao when will you scrubs learn
Pael's Tooth seems like the best, no? Especially if I still have strike and defends in my deck
>>736579442Because it's fun why do you exist?
How hard is to beat A10 without skipping card rewards?
>>736584175I prefer the energy relic, but I'm always energy starved so...
How about a new location other than the spire?How about "The Pit"?
>>736584175What, to remove those Strikes and Defends? No, not really. There's no point in trying to make those better. But overall, hard to say without seeing your deck. If you're not aware, Pael's Legion is 2 turns inclusive of the turn you trigger it so it's actually every other turn.
>>736580643>15 damage and can save you 10-30 hp>combos with other cardsIt's not the worst, and certainly has situations where it can shine.
>>736584339I have the sudden urge to make a "Made in Abyss" mod
>>736584342That seems very strong
>>736584175My preferred use for Pael's Tooth is if you have cards that need some other combo piece to reach their full potential. That way you can look for synergies while they aren't stuck in your deck in the meantime; hopefully you'll find one and by then you'll have the combo piece back and upgraded.
>>736584175>goes to sleepThey couldn't just say "goes on cooldown", or "can only be activated once every other turn"?
>>736584554NopeGood day sir.
>>736583704Skill issue
>>736584554It's a pet so they wanted to play into that. Maybe they plan to add more pets and it'll be a keyword people will be more familiar with at that point. But yeah, until then, they're just being stupid with that wording.
>have fun in a runthis game pretty good>get dogshit rng and shitty cards/relics offeredfuck the retards that made this shitty ass game
I kinda want more floors3 is very short, 5 would feel more appropriate, although I can guess how broken it could get once you have two dozens of relics and either an extremely polished small deck or a 50 card monstrosity
What's funny to me is that the vast majority of enemies get infinite scaling, which makes them canonically more powerful than the characters you play as if you give them enough time. As a matter of fact, if you wait long enough, they should be able to destroy planet busters like fucking Goku.Shit's fucking retarded. REMOVE THE FUCKING SCALING ON EVERY ENEMY YOU FUCKING IDIOTS

is it me or is Clad not as fun to play in StS2some cards feel good but i'm not really feeling a lot of his shit right now
How do I pick good cards
>>736586324clad has a very similar problem to Regend. Most of his pool is dogtrash so when you get runs where you have only the shitpile of trash offered you end up having a terrible time.
>>736586364First couple floors of Act 1 go for damage. Most Act 1 elites and hard pool fights will rape you if you don't have enough damage.Check to see what boss you're up against. If it's Vantom you want cheap and/or multi-hit attacks. If Soul Fysh anything that lets you exhaust, transform, or discard cards mid-battle is strong. You get the idea. Pick stuff that counters the upcoming boss.When you're getting closer to Act 2 start looking for good block cards. Act 2 enemies have a habit of shitting out huge damage right from turn 1.From there you look for stuff that synergizes with the stuff you already have. You're not trying to preplan the "perfect build", you're picking what you need to win the next fight and then working to improve the strength of what you've already got. You also want to pick up some card draw when you get the chance--being able to cycle through your deck faster never hurts.
>>736586364You click on them when the game prompts you to pick it
>>736586324He has no identity, the only thing he has is exhaust and current exhaust is like sly but way shittierThey also took his weak cards away so he just takes a fuckload of damage and can't cover it with just his relic
Early kifuda is so good. Especially if you have some source of dex. Getting 3 extra block for playing other cards is huge early. You can really spam it on some stuff like defects 0 costs.
>>736587027Unironic trvke. Late it falls of a good bit, but if you get some important shit early and get to stick free Block on it? Goddamn.
>>736584056If anything enemies don't scale fast enoughIt's incredibly easy to put together a block engine that wins the game at current
>>736584386It fits the themeKinda...
>>736587301with ironclad it's actually really hard
>imbue reflect with electric shrymp>oh boy this will be such a big help >reflect is gained and then instantly wears off for no reasonindeed I pressed F2 right away and sent a scathing bug report for this. at least the block stayed.

>>736587301post A10 Ironclad winstreak
At current, I would say that in terms of health, the characters are currently ranked:>Defect>Regent>Necrobinder >Ironclad>SilentDefect is at a sweet spot where he has a lot of strong cards, his themes all work with a myriad of synergies, and he has multiple viable block engines. Regent on Beta branch is in a very strong and fun state. He has both very strong block and very good damage engines, and his draw is decent. His early game is very interesting and it's possible to get Regent decks that play completely differently with only a few different cards. People also really tend to overstate how bad Forge is, Forge is actually in a pretty decent state all things considered and can be relied on as a scaling solution. The main problem with Regent at current is that card creation is a bit of a dead endNecrobinder is in a decent state right now but she has two major problems. 1: Her start deck is too strong. Unleash simply shouldn't be a basic card. 2. Contrary to what some in this thread would tell you, doom is really fucking strong, perhaps too much so. It's super easy for any Necrobinded deck to just add a Deathbringer or No Escape and suddenly they outscale every bossIronclad is in a complicated spot. He's stronger than many in these threads will tell you. Having so many exhaust sources will always be strong. Vulnerable has insane pay offs. Self Damage moves extremely fast once you get rupture or inferno. The issue is, Ironclad is typically forced in to feast or famine decks. The only reliable block strategy Ironclad has is just play shrug/blood wal/true grit. His other best defensive cards are locked away as rares that require specific synergies. He also has no life gain cards to balance out the costs of his self damage cards, which compounds on his pre existing block issues. There also the issue that Ironclad's card pool has a lot of chaff at all rarities at this momentSilent is too fucking strong and they made her stronger.
What's best for Defect?
>>736588334Silent has the most consistent cards, I always pick her
>>736588334In a vacuum typically it's silent > clad > necroSilent will usually have the most quality cards on average, Ironclad can have some bricks but also has some decent cards, and necrobinder can give you bricked osty cards
>>736582178Do it again but in multiplayer
>>736588334clad is shit and necro is too situational, silent cards go well with everyonepick necro anyway because the defect needs a friend
>a bunch of good powers+some claw and momentum or whatever that one card is.>soup that makes strikes cost 0>get feral and all for onefinally the game isnt gay and I can have fun.
>>736588674A enchanted strike is worse than literally every defect 0 cost except like upgraded zap

can YOU defeat doormaker in 4 turns?probably not because youre not as good at slay the spire 2 as I am.>>736588782its free 6 damage so you can recall the free 6 damage to do more free 6 damage while you draw 2 to get more free 6 damage cards while you apply vulnerable, for free and get free energy so you can cycle to the start of your deck to get more free damage, for free. Extremely based desu
>>736588907I'm just trying to pick up more exhaust shit on Ironchad man. Starting with Pact's End means I have to
>>736588934You've got this bro. I believe in the dream.I was really torn up between Eradicate and End of Days, but felt like Doom was the safer strat for rn. Driftwood is really helping me find my shit, too.
i said 4 but I meant 10. It felt like 4 turns because im so good at the game but youre not you suck at slay the spire 2
>>736588865rejoin other regent
>>736588961Yeah I got Driftwood too. No good Skill to Imbue this run except maybe Arma+ which might have been nice but a bit risky. Didn't want to get Break either because this isn't a vuln run. So far I did get Burning Pact+ though I do still need to upgrade Havoc, Pommel Strike, maybe Second Wind, and definitely Pact's End too>>736588992He doesn't seem to be coming back?
>>736588926>its free 6 damage so you can recall the free 6 damageOr I could play beam cell and scale my damage or I could play go for the eyes and scale my block or I could play helix drill and deal 30 damage or I could play FTL and draw cards or I could scale my claws or I could play turbo and overclock and go off or I generate block or pop my darkness orbs with dual castThere are many things I would rather do than spend my boss relic on making my strikes cost 0

>>736578815They are better than any card separately but they are worse at synergies which will be your endgame(except golden age I guess)
>>736588926>4 turns>says turn 10
>>736582707Sneko is much worse in slay the spire 2 because defect, silent, and necromancer all love their 0 cost cards
>>736584106It's all cosmetic until a8 where you notice it, then its a spike in a9
>>736584175I usually take paels tooth and then use equally on cards I love that needs upgrading and on non essential cards so I dont die without my best cards, never on strikes and defends, I plan to get rid of them
>>736584106All ascencions are piss easy.From A9 onward every act turns into a goblin rape cave
>>736586324I really struggled on ironclad at first, you have to desperately search for block like you desperately search for damage on silent, then some bullshit will come your way like good exhaust cards, stumpede, free mana+draw, etc.
>>736588334I take silent because she has draw which is really good with defects mana generation
Ascension 9 is such a huge jump up in difficulty. Haven't managed to win a single time since getting every character there
>>736589976
GGs boys.
ggs thank you for the heals and block
GGI'm starting to realize that in multiplayer, Doom is not good because of inflated HP values. You NEED No Escape as your pseudo-Catalyst for Doom or else it'll never get anywhere except like 150 HP maybe. No, in multiplayer Doom is the enabler you need for memes instead. For example, abusing Shroud with Neurosurge and Death's Door. Here in this run? A Doom run I wanted to go for instead became discovering the synergy of double Danse Macabre and Borrowed Time+
GGSpent the whole run waiting to get a big vuln-stacking payoff like Dominate or Bully. Didn't see either a single time, but I did get two copies of Cruelty and an insane block engine that led to an 868 damage Body Slam at the endFunny how that works

>>7365938682/4
>>7365938683/4
>>736593829Duo is way harder since enemy buffs scale 3x so shit like artifact or Vantom can absolutely ruin your day while you struggle to clear damage checks due to hp scaling.3-4 is way easier since there's alot more synergy going on. The enemy is permadebuffed. And there's a high chance that at least one of you gets a stupid strong deck going to carry everyone else. Multiplayer only cards are also way stronger.
Damage Necro is probably the best archetype now, lots of damage, energy, and block. Souls fell off so fucking hard. Doom was also affected by the Souls crash baka.Fiddle is a pretty good boss relic desu
>>736594370is that how it works? I've been playing duo with a friend and a10 is a struggle while both of us best a10 solo already
>>736594492yeah, with most character combinations and playstyles duos a10 is the hardest thing right now.
>play multiplayer with friends>one guy insists on powermaxxing literally every single run, so he's just taking 20+ unblocked damage in regular encounters while doing no damage output for 2+ turnsIt's fine in 3-4 player multiplayer, but in 2 player I want to blow my head off
I picked GUARDS! over blade hits twice despite having some forge cards already, did I brick my deck?
I’d like more people to upload their runs to sts2 fun and breakdown by ascension but even like this Ive noticed a pattern among worst performing duo combinations
>>736594476Ethereal was always my favorite archetype. Second most fun deck for me is sleight+debuffs, including the power that applies doom every turn
>>736595235And having silent or necro in team is mandatory
Necro floats, how does the bridge affect her?
>>736595235Defect applies almost no debuffs so it's not surprising.

All the "when X, gain block" powers of necro are so much better than they look, they're so good.Fiddle is great on decks with high impact cards and poor draw. Necro can get away wiht it more often by abusing graveblast. The reason why it's sometimes iffy on necro is that it completely fucks you over if you picked any souls cards on the way up since they add curses to your deck now. You will most likely always pick spare Grave Wardens on your way up to act 1 because they're generically strong even without souls synergies and they enshittify with fiddle.
shiv build vs spam your deck every attack eliteVery nice, I love getting hard countered and check'd before the fight even starts
>>736596940Next time power up your ships before using them and use your potions, I would just savescum
>>736597059"just wait a few turns" is obviously not something that I can just afford to do against an enemy that deals 28 dmg every turn. It was just a hard counter that I could do nothing against.>savecumminggross
>>736584174You go and beat Doormaker with a small deck>Playing cards on phase 1 can brick your strategy>Phase 2 is heavily RNG reliant>Phase 3 shutdowns any combo outside 0 cost cards
>>736597136Well enjoy skipping your turn then
>>736596940GET COUNTEREDGET COUNTEREDGET COUNTEREDbut really bee guy need to be toned down in anti-attack hate, the fact that he gives card INTO YOUR DECK and that it’s PER HIT and not attack played is retarded
Community stats are very interesting to see.Insane average winrate boost when picking the pollinous core opposed to the gold.
>>736596940Is it always 2 dazed per attack? I feels like its sometime 1, sometimes 2, genuinely cant remember
>>736597303Drawing is one of the best thing you can do
>>736597372NTA. The number of Dazed increases every 2-3 turns iirc, its buff action is strength + buffing the Personal Hive passive
>>736597372his buff tells exactly how many dazes it is at any point in the fight and it scales with time
>>736597372it starts at 1 and after a couple of turns, he buffs himself so you'll get 2 stacks
>>736597372He powers up on 3rd turn to 2 dazes
>>736597301Per attack played still hard counter shiv. It's just a dumb hard counter mechanic>>736597372it's one first then it gets to 2
>>736597303Rejectbros...
>>736597372He gains more the longer the fight lasts, the trick is to try to either built up a massive onehit finisher or burst him down quickly.
>>736596940You have 2 strength potions, he'd probably be dead already if you had used them at the start.
>>736597512You're terrible at math
>>736583483vakuu should make the best possible play just like the real whispering earring
>>736578759it's the opposite, prismatic gen was bad enough that it was made into the downside of an energy relic.
>>736597525Dude is at half life. If you used your potions, you could've doubled your shiv damage and probably could've killed
>>736597512A shiv is 4 damage, an extra 4 damage doubles it.You still have a shiv in hand, also pen nib would deal even more damage from the extra strength.Also even without hindsight, you know this guy will fuck you with your shiv built so you should've used everything at your disposal.
>>736597624It's grade school math anon, 69 health means it would have required 18 attacks with those +4 dmg to kill it and obviously 18 attacks didn't happen in 2 fucking turns
>>736597607Prism wasn't on average a downside but mostly neutral. The issue with the prism on StS1 is that it was a shop relic and spending 168 gold on not moving the needle was not worth your money when you could be buying the smoothstone next to it.Here it has an energy tacked on top on an energy hungry game. Easy click.
This games fanbase is so weird, you people will sexualize literally anything
>>736597696Post your seed and run recap, I want to take a shot at it.
Why the fuck is this game so hard?
>>736597761> This games fanbaseAny game not like this?
>>736597941Farming simulator?
>>736597879lil bro...
>>736596873No Escape kinda wants replay on it imo. It's not very fast at all. I started the run with Severance which becomes useless because of Fiddle but thanks to my x2 Danse it just becomes +8 block +12 damage instead lol. It's pretty amazing to see how much Danse has improved as a card.

>>736599575How did you make your lines so straight?
Wait the copies that clone makes ALSO have clone? I'd been assuming that they didn't all this time because of how fucking stupid that would be and just thought you guys were pulling off some other trick to get 128 Big Bangs or whatever.
>>736599789I needed damage

>>736599789I coloured it in btw
>>736596940Use your potions. This isn't ffvii were you have megalixirs left at the final boss
>get into act 2>take 10+ damage per combat>dieI really need to stop doing that.
>>736597136savescumming is the #1 way of improving since it allows you to examine fights from all angleswhen you start streaking later on you dont do it, of course
>>736600065Holy cope
>>736600083cope for what? you are a1 and complaining about losing with potions left
>>736600065>when you start streaking later on you dont do it, of courseNigga there's people in here using the upgrade bug on all their key cards while leaving strikes and defends un-upgraded to appear legit then bragging about their A10 runs.
>>736600136I'm complaining about the design not about losing, coping cheaterImaging needed to cheat in a solo game this simple. Jesus.
>>736596940What did the map look like? Could you have avoided all elites? Because shiv decks should avoid all elites in act 2 purely because that guy exists. Same reason doom Necro should avoid them too because the millipede somehow becomes even gayer.
>>736600187are you just ragebaiting here? i feel like you are ragebaitinganything before a10 is a learning experience, doesnt matter at all
>>736596940>>736600214Oh and also, beenigga is a good reason why Accuracy is such an important pickup for shiv decks since it means you don't have to hit him as many times.
>>736600238>more copeok lol
We have creative AI at home
>>736600331lets hope you dont abandon the game before the game starts, mr mlghow long have you been on a1 btw?
Never played a deckbuilder roguelite before, but I'm curious since it seems like we get about a dozen of these games released every week. I know that Slay the Spire 1 is considered the genre godfather, but should I start with that or should I just skip it and play Slay the Spire 2?How easy or hard are these games for someone whose only experience in playing cards is playing solitaire during computer classes in school like 20 years ago?
>>736600393AI slop
>>736600083He’s right, replaying a fight to understand what you did wrong is literally how people improve you retarded gorilla
>>736600564There’s no point in play sts 1 since sts 2 is improving upon the formula(besides few absolute retarded decision changes to Ironclad cards)
>>736600578kek, you aren't people if you need to savescum in that game.
Bird eaters are in shambles right now
>>736600564id say start with sts1 since its a fully fleshed out productthe early difficulties are very forgiving and allow you to familiarize yourself with the mechanics
>>736600578There's no way I could have done something wrong. It's the games fault not mine
>>736600645>A1
do you have to git gud before jumping into multiplayer? I still can’t even beat level A5 yet
>>736600690Yeah let me play a10 on my third game real quickCould you possibly more pathetic lmao
>>736600709multiplayer scales to your ascension join any lobby and go nuts
>>736600742it took you more than one try for a1, thats all i need to know
>>736600709You can play as sissy and build your deck around debuffing and giving other players energy or block or double damage
>>736588334green statue looks like george floyd
>>736600761lol ok cheater
>>736600578That would involve thinking and that's impossible
>>736600771I can't greed>>736600819You know back in the day games would include cheat codes

>>736601146I don't think you're fooling anyone after that long post streak of trying to justifying cheating when literally no one asked lol
>>736601153i feel like the triangle is going to end up with book of stabbing tier damage
>>736601153Want to know how to kill Bee Man? Snakebite
>>736601187so you already know the deck sucked, got itmultiple people defended early ascension savescumming, is it some kinda conspiracy against you?
>>736601191I wouldn't be surprised, but every time I'm forced to take an act 2 elite I just roll the dice for my 1/3 chance of a freebie.
>>736601238yikes
>>736601187NTA, but you're ass. Savescumming to figure out how different lines play out is an easy way to improve, makes you think of manipulating draw order more etc

>>736601580>now claims its about a10 and defending the upgrade bugyou do know that the posts are still up, right?just post your deck, it cant be THAT bad
havent played the first one but picked up 2 cause a buddy wants to play co-ophow do i git gud? done a couple runs with ironclad and silent each and keep getting shit on in act 3(elites/end boss) which i assume is mostly a failure at deckbuilding, i'm picking up that i should be wanting to keep my deck on the smaller side
Exhaust is fucking stupid>picked up a copy of ashen strike early because one of my starter cards transformed into havoc>had no other exhaust for all of act 1>picked up corruption+ at the beginning of act 2>instant ggI think this is the fastest I've ever killed queen, especially just ignoring the minion
>>736601672>i should be wanting to keep my deck on the smaller sidedont plan long term too much, keep your eye on the win condition but always look at the next fights up ahead and what you can do to avoid damage on those
>>736601672> i'm picking up that i should be wanting to keep my deck on the smaller sideYou want deck to have coherent game plan with one or more win cons. Bigger deck are not a problem if you pick enough draw
>>736601672>i'm picking up that i should be wanting to keep my deck on the smaller sideYesno. If you've played any game involving a deck of cards before you'll get that smaller decks are more consistent, but having a bigger actually serves as protection against the dud cards that enemies put in your deck so there's no real answer as to whether you should have a small or big deck.
>>736601580I do it all the time and then give bad advice to people struggling on this game
>>736602003No, (you) are still on A1
>>736601672Small decks just help with consistency, but I feel like it's slightly less important in 2. Not that the game is easier just that you come across draw more readily imoSo fat decks are more tolerable. Plus, as the other guy said, so many fuckers drop status now.
>>736600647>Was on a 15+ loss streak trying to A10 Necrobinder>Get a run where I can safely hatch the bird>Smooth ride the rest of the runIt's that easy
>>736601759>>736601772>>736601775gotcha, what would be some good combos/things to aim for with ironclad? i was doing well with thrash/bludgeon but it felt kinda unreliable if i didnt get it started early especially against bigger enemies
>>736602265You can reliably go for exhaust package and Perfected Strike(with hellraiser even for example)
>>736602265just keep on trying out things, its hard to recommend stuff because its easy to fall into the trap of trying to force certain archetypesfor early act 1 a decent single target damage card and some kind of answer to the aoe problem is always good
>>736602265Just pick good cards and something generally pops out. Learn what cards upgrade to because not all upgrades were made equal. Armaments is a personal favourite of mine, and Battle Trance is basically a slam dunk. True Grit is also an exceptional upgrade. When you upgrade cards it's good to increase numbers that aren't damage or block. Your starting Bash for example is a solid upgrade because that extra turn of vulnerable can lead to a lot of extra free damage.https://sts2.untapped.gg/en/tier-list/cards/ironcladThis isn't beta but scroll and compare upgrades to non-upgrades, you'll see that some are waaay better like Body Slam going from 1 energy to 0 energy. That's like having an extra energy on the turn you draw it.
>>736602401you can also just right click a card and check the upgrade option ingame
>>736602265Also Bloodletting, Battle Trance and Offering are always good cards to pick up no matter what you’re doing
>>736602437I mean sure but if he's already on 4chan it's easier to do it through a browser tab.
>>736594476saw this post and decided to try picking Necro unga bunga cards since I got lucky with early Demesne & Lethalityunexpectedly a fun run
>>736602469Demesne my beloved.
>>736602456i see the point, just thought id throw it in in case he didnt know already
>>736602469Lethality is an insane card. I try to get 2 every run.
>>736602528>Bury+>+50% damage enchant>Vulnerable>LethalityYeah, it's gaming time.
>>736602371>>736602378>>736602401>>736602438appreciate the help fellasi saw battle trance a few times but i was feeling i didnt have enough consistent damage so i skipped it, but will give it a trywill keep banging my head against the wall until things make sense
Do I?
>>736602562Forgot Debilitate
>>736602593Do eet, fagget. That's a guaranteed win.
>>736602571>will keep banging my head against the wall until things make sensethats the spirit, sts really is more about the overall knowledge you collect in your mindwhile were at it, its a good rule of thumb to plan your deck for the worst instead of best possible turn

>>736602593If you're GAY you won't do it.
What was the thought process behind Hunter Killer?
>>736602834>"Hmmm elites do like 25 damage a turn so lets make him only do 21 to compensate for his debuff">"But he isn't an elite!">"Larry who the FUCK asked you???"
>>736602834Fuck Silent
>>736602834punish card spam decksthe real questions is why he doesnt have triangle mans elite spot
>>736602834they heard Silent was dodging bees so they put an elite in her normals
I managed to lose to Dog+Queen despite having 100+ HP. Looks like I have no idea how to block on Regent.
>>736602880I don't even know what dorito's niche is supposed to be. Slightly overtuned but you get an extra energy to fight him I guess? Yawn.
>>736602910But at least you got aura and hype moments.
steam://joinlobby/2868840/109775241272543474/76561198230044444
A10 left for Regent. I'm attributing this win to me deciding not to take elite fights (especially on act 2) cause my deck was already good enough to beat the boss and getting more relic wasn't necessarily gonna make my deck much much stronger.
I fucking hate this nigger. Never beat him in A9 or above he just kills me with 30HP left.
>>736602913I think the idea is that it's supposed to be blocking a lot so that you'd have to figure out if you can break through the guard to get the extra energy or not, but its numbers are very undertuned.
>>7366029832/4
>>736602997I don't what they should do about current elites. Everyone's dodging them because the juice isn't worth the squeeze, but does that mean they should nerf some of them? or even if they add say an extra card drop, does that equal the -35 HP + tip?
>>736602913Punish poison/doom spammers by balancing him around attack decks having +1 energy
>>736603050>Added a new potion that always drops from elites:Upgrade Potion - Permanently upgrades a random card in your deck when consumed
Why is Act 1 so fucking hard on A9/10?I feel like as long as I can survive Act 1, my winrate pretty much skyrockets.
>>736603146Yes, act 1 elites are stupid, we know.
>>736603050Card reward guaranteed uncommon having only uncommons and rares with higher chance of being upgraded
>>736603176This would be my approach, yeahgetting commons after an elite is such shit
>>736603173>>736603146even the question mark events are less positive this time aroundand some normal encounters are just insufferableeven the fucking very first shrinking beetle can utterly fuck you as a first encounter
>>736603283I've only been fucked by the beetle as Regent tbhdesu. I usually play Defect so am largely unaffected by him.
>>736603283My favorite is two slugs on the underdock as a floor 1 encounter.A bad draw order and attack startup roll means you can potentially eat 15-16 damage multiple times on the fight.
>mushroom that summons encounter>boat encounter>smoke nigga encounter>constrict encounterLMAOOOOOOO
>>736603446>>smoke nigga encounterMake this cuck an elite already.
>deck based on skills>steamrolling everything>get test subject as act3 boss>cannot do shit without giving him +90 strengthyeah ok, thanks for invalidating 2 acts of deck building
>>736603501Just lower the explosion damage to 6 from 8.
>>736603501anti-power nigga from act 3 should be an elite. Dude's health is unreal.
>take half my HP on the act 3 boss setting up Reaper+ with replay>proceed to burn through the rest of the fight without taking any damageI'm beginning to understand the concept of playing the fight, not the turn
>>736603446>mushroom that summonsTrivially easy>mushroom that hovers behind another enemy>constrict encounterEnd of the line
Man I love Status Defect
>>736603283Fun fact, Hunter killer is closer to act3 elites in damage dealt than act 3 elites are to millipede and bygone effigy
Abrasive is basically an S tier card for the amount of fights it can solve for you and it's literally 0 cost in most Silent decks. Such a huge glow up Caltrops have in this game. Can't wait for the fullart.
>>736603630This won't factor in that Hunter Killer actively makes it harder to block his damage, meaning his effective damage is actually higher than that.
>>736603146It's the opposite for me. Act 1 is manageable with obvious solutions for each boss and elite, Act 2 really, hard, the Act 3 double boss almost impossible. I only survived both of them once
>>736603501>hurr just take literally ANY AOE to solve>card pool is so bloated chances are you won't see half of the commons throughout the entire run
>>736603809I haven't seen Glacier in so long I'd forgotten it was still in the game.
>>736603715It’s average damage taken. Hunter killer is a bit skewed because there are decks with high front load damage that absolutely shit on him with free turn he gives them that pull average damage way down
Playing random only, I’ve gotten all chars to 5-9A, but man now I’m on a 12game loss streak and am starting to feel discouraged. Definitely could’ve won some of those though, if I didn’t make obvious mistakes. Should play slower.
O KEEP RUINING MY RUNS GOING FOR ELITES ARGHHHH I JUST CAN'T HELP IT
turns out 1000 hours of knowledge and muscle memory is hard to overwrite, Im still playing like its sts1 and getting rolled for being a greedy cunt
>>736603628The insidious draw order kills me yet again
>>736604474>Almost dead and the boss is basically full healthUhhh anon? Your campfire?
>>736604535There are two bosses on A10
>>736604578>66% chance of fighting GoatseHow fun.
>>736604040Think about all the upgrading you will be able to do if you avoid the elite
Is the golden path worth it? It better be worth it for me to pass on 5 free upgrades
>5 cards left.Man, new Doormaker is kinda nuts.
>>736604674If you have cards worth upgrading I'd take that instead. I only take path if the other options are complete shit (which happens a lot because that bitch is the worst ancient in the game).
>>736604674largely depends on map
>>736604674Nah, get the upgrades, look up how it looks, its not spectacular
>>736604674It depends, 4 targeted upgrades is really good, but if all your paths suck then I wouldn't hesitate to slam Golden Compass. It gives you one extra free chest, so that's always something to consider
>>736604674If you have 4 cards you need to upgrade it's honestly a complete no-brainer. One of the best upgrades when it's good.
i'm going to confessthe game is way more fun when you abuse the exploit that lets you select multiple cards for neow
>>736604718>>736604724>>736604752>>736604771>>736604804Alright, upgrades it is then
>>736604893>two Sentry ModesDamn, son. Just look for a Squeeze and you win the game.
>>736604892Just play Sealed Deck custom instead if you're going to abuse that glitch
>>736580643In multiplayer you can play it to allow your team to avoid having to block and increase damage output all together.
>waterfall giant has the highest kill rateliterally how? i suck at the game and have never died to this thing. do i just build decks that counter him specifically or something
>>736605146Maybe you are conservative with your health, you are guaranteed to lose a big chunk of health and people often dont take it into account
>>736604951It probably not unlocked since it's my first necro game. But what I really need right now is to get rid of cards
>>736605291i almost never go into a boss with less than around 1/2 to 2/3 hp if i can help it so yeah maybe that's the case
>>736605347find some scaling too
>>736603501>turn 2>28 damage or 11 damage + 21+ effective block
>>736605632What do you mean?
>>736605713you're dealing a max flat damage amount per turn and your output doesn't grow with time as the fight progressesit doesn't look like dealing ~24 damage every turn is going to win the damage race against the knowledge demonsearch for at least 1 vulnerable source and something else that speeds up the boss fight during act 2
>>736602983gg.I'm the ironclad, sorry to not spend the energy, I need Diamond Diadem to survive.Well played though!
Fucking hell, thanks for the carry boysMy deck was so dogshit except towards the end, just couldn't really find anything on act 1 and 2
>>73660583724 damage? my guy it's 2x10 + 12 + 24 almost every turn not counting the damage reflected or the summon stacked
>>736606039np, gg(voltaic seems perfectly balanced now heh)
beta doormaker is too hard i really hope this doesn't make it to the base game
>>736576421I have been massively underrating Tyranny, that's a good card.
>>736606040your double dying star is a big deal bro. it lifted a lot of pressure.
>>736606134Skeleton Key (Relic)Deal 1 DamageDeals 50 Damage to PlayerInstantly kills the Door
>>736602469Damage Necro is insane,I didn't even have Lethality in that run but yeah it's beyond crack rn. Makes Ironclad damage numbers look small by comparison desu.
>>736605146It's probably because regardless of how well prepared your deck is going into the fight, he always 100% of the time asks you to block 40+ on a specific turn. You probably don't have the luxury of picking cards throughout the act that give you options to set that turn up, because it's Act 1, you need to pick up attacks and a couple of good blocks to get your foot off the ground at all. You may be in the fortunate position to delay the killing blow for better odds of drawing your block and that's it. You could have picked a Flame Barrier, Glitter Stream, Leg Sweep, just in preparation for this fight, and not draw them on the turn you need it. In STS1, the fire ghost of Act also hits you for something like 36 at some point, but the idea is that if you haven't killed him by then, you're in big trouble. The waterfall giant always explodes for probably 40+, this huge attack always happens.
>>736606134i dont understand why he's invulnerable in the first phase and why he also removes all debuffs afterwards.
c. beast, queen, and doormaker debuffs are all more annoying than time eater ever was and i'm tired of pretending they're not
>>736606259it really feels like one of those fights that you need to save a potion for, even if you get it early in the act
>>736606271Needed an excuse for him to open a door instead of just immediately murdering you + cope turn to setup
>>736606271So you can't infinite him on the first turn
>>736606378doesnt explain the debuffs
>0/6 on ascension 0 silent runsI just don't get it, no other character has felt this wimpy to me. The attack cards are all ass, the block cards never show up, and the draw cards just refill my hand with basic strikes and defends and I can't keep up with anything by act 2.
why did they kill the clad strength archetype almost entirely? no heavy blade, no limit break, no spot weakness, no flex, etc. it's not even like the thing where they gave self-status to defect (for some reason), it's just gone entirely
>>736606581silent's individual cards are low impact, but she's really good at taking a lot of actions per turn (draw, discard, 0 cost play, etc.)you power up by picking stuff that activates every time you do those thingsyou won't usually be able to play her looking for big "me smash" cards like clad
>>736606639They removed a lot of parts that made it work before, but he still has a lot of multi-striking attacks, Demon Form, Rupture and Fight Me off the top of my head. It still feels like you can build him into Strength fairly easily, just in a different way from before. They also made it harder to build poison on The Silent, so my guess is they just didn't want everyone doing the most popular build from the previous game in the same way again.
>>736606378Is his infinite HP is the same the waterfall bomb boss, he can be killed by infinite deck
>>736606826> Demon Form, Rupture and Fight MeOnly one of those three cards is viable
>>736607025>demon formjust get it act 3 with glam after having drafted void form earlier
does doom disappear at the end of a turn or is it just reduced by one?
>>736606239> Makes Ironclad damage numbers look small by comparison desu.Because every other character damage boost is multiplicative but for some fucking reason Clads only source of damage “multiplier” is fucking linear(cruelty)
>>736607186Neither, it stacks up and then kills the enemy at the start of their turn if doom is higher than HP
>>736607237so it never fades? god damn
>>736607271has the downside of allowing the enemy one more action before proccing though
I've only managed to a10 because of savescumming.....
>>736607516Nope, (you) are firmly placed in A1 where you belong
>>736607781still hoosting
>>736608139>The game no longer exists
>>736608172steam://joinlobby/2868840/109775241286183128/76561198230044444now?
>>736608020for me it's Reaper
>>736579026i got 64 mayhem+ one timewhat a run
>hot cocoa and marshmallows>bread energyKINOOOOOOOOO
>>736608821pure sex desu never gets old
>>736578413You're supposed to blame RNG instead of yourself, anon.
>>736608484Reaper and Limit Break removal are 50% of the reason why ironclad is the worst character in sts2. The other 50% is the gutting of exhaust builds in general with Dark Embrace being rare, corruption being essentially non-existent, and dead branch being gone. He has nothing to match the scaling other people have, with the sole exception of vuln stacking Bully.
>6 power cards in a deck of 18 cardsI wish I could have get rid of at least a couple more cards. I like the idea of the summon but I don't know if it's really viable to go full buffed osty
>>736588921yup yup, that's my king
>go back to A0>have fun againBros...
>>736609576wtf
Regent is easy for me nowNecro fucking filters me so much
Thoughts on this card?
>>736609892Complete ass
>>736609892regent always flexes his big sword on the 9 hp phrogling I'm hunting/10
>>736609892Amazing if you get it from the act 1 boss (or earlier)
I literally drew every single card that doesn't deal damage in my 12 cards deck.Pray for my gold
>>736609892Prayer wheel that works on elite and boss/10
>>736610231R.I.P he stole it
>>736609892crazy card
>>736610231what is that border are you playing on Windows 95?
who /supreme/ here?
>>736609892I got 3 rare rewards at the end of an act once, I don't remember how I multiplied it but it was fun.
>>736602880>punish card spam decks*accelerates in your path* nothing personnel
>Add a random rare card>Bundle of joy>Esc>Give Up
oh hey there's badge for curses
is it unethical to savescum in this game?
>>736611104It's faster to quit to menu and abandon from there.
>>736611104Coward. Play it out. PLAY IT OUT I TELL YOU.
Thoughts?
>>736611257whomst
>>736611098yes which is why its not a bad fight
>>736611148do whatever you want in your own time for your own entertainment. understand that different people are on different levels ounderstanding when talking about the same game and that the standard understanding will be the game as it was intended to be played (and don't be coy about this). someone who uses items in a platinum game understands that the body of the discussion doesn't, someone who just flies over every level in super mario world understands that the body of the discussion doesn't, and someone who rewinds time in a game where every decision you make matters understands that the body of the discussion doesn't.
>dude just add cards that solve your immediate problems lmaoI don’t know what my immediate problems are you fags all the cards look good to me I can’t stop myself from adding them
>>736602834punish cowards who route around elites by making them fight an elite and not even get a relic
>>736609892Feed and hunt are both great, feed a bit easier as Clad can scale damage of it for wider window of it procing
>>736611451your immediate problem from the beginning of act 1 is:-needing one good attack card-needing one good AoE card -needing one good block carddo NOT try and synergize these three cards together, do not skip your first attack card because it's not the deck type you had in mind. after you get these three card types, then grab cards you need for the act 1 boss. it's usually only during act 2 that you now look at what you've wound up with and try to start synergizing things. this is generally how it goes, lucky starts can make it go differently.
>>736611451a general tip is to avoid overextending your deck. don't add "value" cards if they eat up energy you could be spending on your main strategy.
>>736611690Alright fag, I better win this round
>>736611539Silent has an easier time drawing out the fight to proc the hunt at the best time and leaving unscathed compared to clad and feed in my opinion
>>736611312Baalorlordhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfDVMwGV7f4
Vakuu bros? Our response?
>>736611451this game is just one big knowledge gap most of the time. the more you play the better you get.what also helped me get better is looking up win rate on cards here to decide which one to take https://sts2.fun/cards?character=ALLthat being said DO NOT take cards that might be good later with synergy but do nothing for you right now like pic related for example.if you can't exhaust at the moment it just does nothing and you shouldn't gamble on getting synergy in the future.
>>736611846I need to watch the video then.I imagine "All For One" always excellent he means on his own deck since it's useless without 0 costers.Gunk Up has never worked for me as well as barrage usually does (a card you can naturally slot in almost any orb deck in act 1), even on the status deck it's kind of low impact.Besides that, yeah, good cards on top, bad cards on the bottom, looks okay. I understand he slotted scaling pieces on the "combo" category as well. The list probably makes more sense when you listen to the commentary.
>wants to like ironclad cuz fast pace>always get rapedMeanwhile silent is way easier, drawing is too OP NERF NOW
>silent the sneaky assassin type has WAY better block cards than fucking Ironcladwhat were they thinking
>>736612115>drawing is too OPlaughs in necro
>>736611904he got their asssent those freaks flying well done
>>736612115Clad draws a lot too
>>736612289she's mostly evading and dodging things which is represented by block, with 'block' cards such as dodge and roll, escape plan, shadowmeld, after image, etc
>>736608231GG, I think I got hard carried there by the other but yeah, that was fun
>>736612476door tore me to pieces, shouldve waited with playing tankthen again it did prevent some dmg so idkgg
>>736608231>>736612565gg ladstook me a long time to realize i just needed to play the smith and the sword after I got voidform for free in the door's fight
>>736612289She blocks by evading attacksClad tanks them
>>736612289>clad keeping block cost 3 energy and it's a rare card>silent block keeping card cost one and is semi-rareIT MAKES NO SENSE NERF NOW
>>736611803> and leaving unscathedAlmost never an option for Clad
>what are powers
>>7366131473 cost rares are supposed to be good
>entire games strategy is card draw + pot luck Lol
I love tear asunder so much. Chopchopchopchopchop.
Bash is trash lower its cost and save the class
>>736613792>save the class by buffing one specific reward???
>>736613792just pick the 1 cost tremble energy jew
>>736613849He needs more but buffing starter deck would help immensely in act 1
>>736613978sorry for brain damage, my mind went to the evolved bash
>>736613978didn’t he have that exact same starting deck in the previous game?
>>736614156Yes but enemies were less aggressive in first game so he could much easier trade health for health
>>736613792upgrade it and its alright
>>736612289ironclad has to go all out... just this once... sorry master.... so he cant block, only attack
