>>737233663Chinas are weirdDon't get me wrong, it's how reviews should be used, but they get assraped buttblasted by the most fucking random shit
>>737233787funny how they don't react like this when their government fucks them in the ass
>>737233663what happened?
>>737233826If Valve could send them into reeducation camps or take away their passports they probably would react differently
>>737233787Funny how /v/ was pro review bombing when Helldivers 2 was nerfing the fun out of the game though.
>>737233787what caused the mixed reviews?
>>737233663Fuck off bugperson.
>>737233853I guess they nerfed some infinite so the chinks can't get an easy win every time anymore

>>737233928hurting the feelings of the chinese people. who are apparently so bitchmade they would rather reviewbomb than gitgud
>>737233960StS2 is a bugpeople game and the majority of reviews are in chinese, not just the majority of the negative reviews
>>737234419Lmao, I think the reviews were sucking the game off too hard from the start, it should sit somewhere around 70-80% with what the game is offering right now, which is just a multiplayer mode, a graphical update, 2 new characters and balance changes. It's a good game but a disappointing sequel that they could have just made as DLC for the first game instead.
>>737234518Bro seriously be using AI as a source
>>737233787Elden Ring and SOTE were also hated by chinks and japs and yet still hace a good scoreMaybe make a game for white people if you want white reviews??

>>737233928The game had a number of infinites, that is to say combinations of cards you could play in a loop and win every fight in the game, the is explicitly an early access to find issues like infinites and fix then so they arent infinite. Patch comes out adjusting several cards responsible for facilitating infinites so they can no longer go infinite. They arent patching all the infinites, they actually left a few in, ones created by a very rare combination of rare cards and rare relics, but they fixed nearly all the infinites resulting from common and uncommon tier cards.China is very unhappy about this, Chinese gamers love going infinite, they like going infinite after the first couple encounters using common cards, chinese gamers are upset with this direction the game is taking because they explicitly want infinites.
wow japanese fans are vocal about the new update and they are not happy. They're discontented with the way the update nerfed infinites and made doormaker strong. I guess they were holding out hope for a fun chilly game route. There's even a petition that's garnered thousands of signatures to have the upfate changed. Obviously that wont happen but it shows how unhappy they are.
>>737233663China needs to be nuked.
>>737234143Yes? What's the problem?
>>737233663I have rogueslop fatigue
>>737233663Based.New Doormaker is the most retarded shit i've ever seen.

Imagine being filtered by the babymode post nerf doorman
>>737235808welcome to the chinese lol
>>737241231Doorman is objectively the hardest boss in the game. I already knew he was gonna cause seethe considering livekeks were fighting the nothingburger door + useless puppy and Queen who does nothing.
>>737233663I beat A10 prior to the update and doormaker pissed me off, seriously it's like every STP1 endboss turned into 1 fuck-you. Completely filtered my strenght stacking build and there was nothing I could do
>>737241617I felt this way but then kept fighting him and now he seems easy. People are just having the same rage reaction they have vs time eater. It's a sign he's well designed.
>>737233826They need an outlet and doing so to games or random celebrities is allowed.
>>737233663I've finished A10 before patch. Skill issue :^)

>>737242823Test Subject was also buffed
What is this incredibly balanced card?
>>737234672games shouldn't be made for a group of peoplegames should be made for the vision of the gamemaker
>>737234692unironically a skill issue, he was way worse a few beta patches
>>737241482You're objectively retarded and bad at the game. Doorman doesn't even do anything.

>>737242312looks like people are still asleep. lets try again later
>>737243548we could give it a couple more minutes then send a 2 man expedition
so mad cuz bad
>>737244812Is there a version of this except the opposite? I feel like my wins don't count when I fight Test Subject and Queen.
This run sucked complete donkey balls and it is a miracle I won. I did like the deck visually though, all the cards in it were very nice and colorful.
>>737243603fuck bro. i think i made a huge mistake taking the left route.
>>737243548gg ntbad bullfrog fight into bad mites fight did us inI think mites are worse than hunter killer desu
>>737245221we were both at 1 if right was a fight it was just over
>>737245221I think clone neurosurge is a big "lose in Act 2 play" the more I think about.I just imagined playing 16 neurosurges and winning every fight on turn 1
>>737233663They removed the silliest exploit ever.
>>737245946nice, saved
Based ChinaGODS
>>737234915>chinese gamersjust say "chiniggers", its what they are
are people (i guess i should say """"people"""") really upset that the highest ascension is difficult
>>737245946Nice, what's the smith?
>>737235808They're fine to have in game but should be a high roll, not something you can feasibly fish for
why are the chinamen angry at this game. I have it but haven't played it yet
>>737233928They changed one of the 3 endbosses you can encounter to instantly end your run if you didn't follow the meta decklist. So any fun build you can think of would be killed at a 33% chance (66% on ascension 10)
>>737244812holy based i'm installing that right away
>>737245946Is this balanced at 2 cost? Seems a little OP
>>737246751I just beat A10, doormaker and the slave duo. My only tip is not being afraid to sack your important cards early on if it helps preserve your HP. Once you're fully scaled it dies.
>>737246949Only works if you have a thick deck. If you have a thin deck of ~15 cards or less you essentially just lose. Especially if you rely on card draw or 0costs
>>737233663Those cunts are just mad a balance patch in an early access game broke their instant win combos.The game does suck but this is just plebbit being babies.
>starting relic is "Obtain a Rare Card">pick it>Hyperbeam
>>737247221Great card, sucks on defect. At least for longer fights.
Am I supposed to kill the little lantern freak or is it better to just focus the queen?
>>737234915sounds like good changes. gamers just dont know what makes a game good. its like that thing matthewmatosis said about botw where gamers think they want to be able to fly over a cliff with their hangglider, but what they actually want is to be forced to walk over and chop down a tree to be able to cross a gap. things feel harder and more inconvenient, but games are ultimately about overcoming challenges and struggle, thats what makes them interesting.
when are we getting relic/cards to gain artifact or remove debuffs?
>>737247458Never, it's clearly a fundamental design decision to remove them as a concept (for the player)Game is balanced around you having to deal with debuffs.
act 1 is so fucking ass if you want to take any elites at all you have to rest at every fire and can never upgrade unless you get some god tier relic or card
>>737233663These subhumans dont deserve anything.Crybully casual shitters that soil themselves if they lose access to braindead infinites.
>>737247420>gamers just dont know what makes a game good.Are you Edmund McMillen? Take your steak and shove it up your ass
>>737233663why would i play this when Chaos Zero Nightmare exists? it has hot sluts and better gameplay.
>>737234138>>737234692OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR
>>737247556Most Act 1 upgrades are unnecessary imo unless you high roll a key rare card for a build.Only very few act 1 upgrades save you hp or allows you to beat the act boss quickly and in that case you should path accordingly.
>>737247652It has nicer graphics, but the gameplay is not better.It being a Gacha is also a -7 point penalty on its own.
>>737247931well besides chrono ark no rougelite deck builder has graphics i like. so Chaos Zero Nightmare is the winner for me personally.
The only way to play is to reroll the start of act one until you have a strong start. Its fucking annoying to do and they really should just make the enemies do way less damage in act so you can get going without rolling for 2 god transforms from meow.
I pirate the games on steamrip.
>>737247556I hate act 1 too. Mostly for the normal fights being too strong.
>>737241231I beat him on my second run as Ironclad before the patch, he was very easy.I also beat him on my second run with Silent but, he was significantly harder since this was the new version of him, and I won by the skin of my teeth despite my Grand Finale/Shiv deck mauling the rest of the game.
>>737247636the sentiment is correct but edmund is shit at balancing his games. matthewmatosis' point in regards to botw was spot on though. the game would have been better if you had to actually engage with the landscape instead of fly over everything. maybe you could unlock the glider late game instead of after the tutorial.
this cocksucking motherfucker can burn in hell
>>737233663Fuck Hunter KillerFUCK Decimillipede and FUCK DOORMAKER
>>737248306Act 1 is fair, you only get shit like this >>737248520 halfway through it. Meanwhile Act 2 opens up with the mole or the grasshopper where even if you defend 3 times you take like 12 damage every turn.
>>737246485
>enemy buffs turn one letting you setup>draw ascenders bane, tactician, 3 defends, survivor and a strike
>>737248940This is the exact reason why I pick Pael's Eye almost all the time.
>>737247312Target queen first if your deck is bursty and you can kill her in a few turns. If you need more ramp up and turns to scale target the minion instead before he scales too much. When the minion dies the queen always starts multihitting for a big chunk of damage. But if you let the minion live too many turns he ends up doing more damage than the queen.
Nu-Doormaker just feels designed to specifically ruin any kind of momentum any kind of deck might have. It is specifically anti-player in a way none of the other bosses are. The only consistent way to win is to have a deck so broken that it doesn't matter if your shit gets exhausted and you don't care about drawing or high card costs. Otherwise it's entirely down to luck. If Hidden Gem didn't happen to target my Time's Up I would've lost my last attempt.
what if doormaker had a 4th turn where he does nothing every cycle, buff his hp a tiny bit because of itwould china still seethe?
>>737249351Make him start of asleep for 3 turns like matriarch with 60 or so armor. Then when he wakes up he first self buffs with his rotation shit. Gives you a solid 3+ turns of setup for his bullshit
>>737249351then he would just be an easy win
>>737249351Just remove the infinite HP on turn 1, it's so faggy.
>>737249351I think he would be fine if they made the scrutiny turn the third one in the cycle and instead of attacking he would be preparing to buff himself.
>>737248703Grasshopper turn 1 is almost dishonest
>>737248829it's bizarre how americans think normal chinese care about this copypasta
>>737247512I would accept that if queen didn't debuff you up the ass on turn 2Artifact should make a comeback or they need to add a cleanse mechanism
>>737247290it wrecks small encounters which means less HP lost which means more card upgrades
just spent 2 hours savescumming to find the only winning line in a fight to save a deck I liked then immediately let the next fight go to loss because I forgot a basic mechanic
>>737247221Act 1 hyperbeam is honestly insanely strong since it's just free act1 meaning you can freely build for lategame deck immediately.And hell you can just pivot away from orbs entirely and have an extremely well-statted AoE card for the rest of the run
>>737249351I personally agree with this Anon >>737249591The issue with Doormaker is how opressive he is. There is no breathing room during his fight except for the Hunger phase. What even is the first turn for? Hoping to fish for your powers?
Redditors don't want to admit this game is like 90% luck on A10
>>737247221I took double transform at the cost of max health and got capacitor and signal boost just now. Might abandon this one!
>>737245130too based
>>737246746The first release of the game, which just got patched, had a lot of broken cards and easy infinites. Dirge on Necro didn't exhaust, all of Silent's exhaust kit was much stronger, Clad could generate infinite energy and infinite card draw, and Regent sucked major ass.An Act 3 boss got turned from a punching bag into pure cancer, but his previous iterations were worse.Megacrit did do a bunch of questionable shit during the previous patches, like the changes to prepared, the second iteration of Skulking Colony, and other stuff. It's only natural they'll go back and forth with the changes, but now that the game's considerably harder, the chinks are angry that they can't just get a 90% winrate with Clad or Silent.Still, the only changes I really weep for are Defy losing it's Weak 2 upgrade and the new Doormaker, which has ruined my fun plenty of times.
>>737233826Does it matter? Burgers react like it all the time but nothing ever happens
>>737251507People said the same of StS1 and yet the tryhards at the top still managed to get 25+ winstreaks on A20 heart runs.Really, the only two things I find glaring about the game are probably A7 and a few of the Act 3 encounters. A7 robs you of the silly fun you get on previous ascencions, and some of the hard pool fights from Act 3 can easily curbstomp you with a couple of bad draws.
>>737250365It's a meme you dip
>>737252216we wuz jus playin
doormaker is the only memorable act 3 boss
>>737252036i find act 2 to have worse encounters than act 3 desuhunter killer is fucking ass cancer
>>737252760Hunter killer isn't that much of a problem honestly. I have a harder time juggling damage against the mites.
>>737252760he should be an elite>>737252814shut up
door maker would be fixed if you knew he was going to be your act 3 boss in act 1
Oh mama
>>737234419Yes there is such a thing as stupid criticism and no your opinion ismt just as meaningful as anyone elses.
>>737253070holy...
>>737253070THAT'S CHEATING!
>>737253070Thank you nonupeipe
>>737250365The idea is that when the chinese firewall sees it it nukes it off the chinese web. But that happened decades ago so now all the Chinese niggers here are either Wumao or chiggas with VPNs
>>737234419If the restaurant has fantastic food but the Chinese people reviewbombed it because the owner changed the color of the curtain to yellow, the problem isn't the restaurant
>>737245946This doesn't offend Chinese a tiny bit. You gotta pay attention to the growing amount of incels due to them selectively aborting female fetuses and the crushing depression from unemployment and high competition in their job market these days
>>737251792Yea. As a necro main i could give a fuck about dirge. I always ended up in a loop of endless souls and summon that wasn't that fun. But defy hurts
>>737250365It was fun back when you could get the Chinese booted off of your multi-player games. But I dont think it works anymore
>>737254549That's why the review system is good. If you can go read through both positive and negative reviews, and decide which ones have merit. Then you can make an educated decision.
>>737233787Didn’t China go crazy over women in some gacha game reading books about freedom or shit?These "people" shouldn't be allowed to interact with western people. They aren't human. I refuse to believe that.
>>737251507Explain the people with a 95% winrate on A10.
>has retain>combos with transfigure and borrowed timeshe's perfect bros...
>>737233826If they do, they get their human rights revoked
>>737256043The entire reason fortnite took over pubg was because pubg's players were completely fed up with the lack of region lock allowing chink cheaters to run rampant on their games, and they instantly jumped ship the second fortnite offered them exactly that, giving them a meteoric rise that further served as a claim for investors and sponsors
>>737234915Lmao, you are getting buttfucked by the retards who think Silksong is acceptable and the only people who have your best interests in mind are getting called insects. If you really enjoy the challenge so much just crush a finger every time you win a battle or something, that should fulfill your fetish. I'm playing shit to have fun and having shit get nerfed every patch is a disease that needs to be stopped.
>>737256043it was very polite of them to make their own internetnow they just need to stay on it
>>737233891>Funny how /v/ was pro review bombing when Helldivers 2 was nerfing the fun out of the game though.??? helldivers 2 got review bombed because they were gonna force people to use a playstation account
>>737256651>people who have your best interests in mindNo thanks, I'm not your mindless gacha waifu who needs you to decide what's good for me
>>737256824They were doing both thingsPeople were actively telling in threads to not talk about their strategies to kill anything because devs were actively nerfing everything into nothingnessHell, I even got a refund because I cited how they made the game ridiculous and miserable to play and they were taking the power out of the fantasy of space grunt with big weapons
>>737257221The devs treat you like a gacha player where everything gets scaled just so you need to suffer constantly..
>>737233663What did they nerf this time?
>>737257265Helldivers 2 review bombing is absolutely justfied since those Swiggers simply don't learn.Best example is the first invasion of Super Earth where there 7 cities to defend, with the devs actively fucking with the odds that every other city would fall eventually, so they could get their epic showdown in Super Stockholm. Chinks were actually based for once and rallied to defend Super Shanghai, and against all odds (and an additional malus), they pulled through and actually fucking 100% the city, just to find out the devs haven't accounted for that and there is not end. Chinks went mad and review bombed the game until devs caved in and changed the outcome that Super Stockholm wasn't the mandatory epic showdown city anymore.
Its mostly Chinese because they apparently despise balance patches in games. And when you check the reviews its nearly all "WHY DID YOU MAKE THIS FINAL BOSS NO LONGER BE A PUNCHING BAG THAT DOES NOTHING?"
>>737233853Shills and faggots will try and convince you that super niche infinite combos being nerfed is the problem. In reality one of the act 3 bosses got uber-buffed and is incredibly unfun to fight, and the devs refuse to revert it to its previous state.
Why did they remove "Not Yet" from the Stoke and skill potions pool?Too OP? Card isnt even that good
>>737258625>not yet
How the fuck do you play this game without constantly resetting?
>>737258625They generally do not want you to generate healing. Been this way since 1
>>737258795And yet they make cards that actively cost HP. Curious!
>>737258795sounds retarded>here have any random Clad card>BESIDES THIS ONE BECAUSE...FUCK YOU
>>737258783By learning to think a bit before clicking.Think a bit about paths, rewards, and what you need for the boss. Checking your future draws and doing some math every turn is paramount
>>737258746>Ironclad, go to the bathroom!!>No....Not...yet!
>>737258625So you can't generate a bunch of them per fight to heal to full and trivialize the risk factor of the game, same reason you couldn't generate self repair in sts1 off creative AI. Of course this logic would also mean removing tent but that hasn't been done yet for some reason.
>>737258827On the character that restores 6hp at the end of combat, yes.
>>737258886YOU ARE SHIELDING YOURSELF
>>737258928and not yet is also his card
>>737259069It's a considerably worse Reaper.
>>737233663>Add a boss that slightly challenges you>Leave a bad reviewGoddamn! STS2 players are worse than the PoE 2 community. Game needs to be piss easy or you'll just make everyone mad.
>>737253070how
>>737258625That's just how they handle instant heal cards in slay the spire. Really they just need to make Not Yet a power that heals at the end of combat like Self Repair did.
https://www.nexusmods.com/slaythespire2/mods/37Thoughts?
>>737247556path into early shop, don't force yourself into elites, learn the minimum you need to actually fight them allyou really don't need that much to beat act 1 elites, but if you don't know what it is you need before you can fight them yeah you're gonna lose a lot.
>>737246746chinese culturally hate when someone raises the bar instead of lowering itits why they feel no shame when it comes to savescumming or flat out cheating and beyond games they are scammers and make everything cheap
>>737254890It's not about offending their sensibilities, political keywords like that can potentially get them in trouble so it's basically like posting CP to Chinks. They gtfo so their government's Eye of Sauron doesn't land on them.
>>737233928Like most Asiatic peoples, chinks are natural scammers who seek to succeed by trickery and exploiting loopholes instead of building legitimate skills. They just mindlessly spammed game-breaking infinite combos to beat STS2 and are now fuming and seething that those combos are being patched out
>>737246751it was changed ages ago, betachads are already trained to conquer the doornigger. Also at a10 you already have to have a good deck to win, and at a0 you can beat any boss with anything if you're not a retard, so what are you complaining about?
wtf is going on here
>>737260510Chinese are less inclined to eat shit than docile niggercattle westoids
>>737260510the chinese believe every video game should be really easy. Not just include an easy mode like sts does, but have the hardest most be easy so they can feel good about winning.
>>737233928Balance changes, the majority of which were positively received by everyone who isn't Chinese

>>737246314A lot of people have been getting banned / warned for racism in these threads
>>737243095Like most grey cards, it's good. But consider the fact you have 5 base draw and you're drawing a card that does nothing on its own.
>>737260724>>737257104Waiting for necro, don't let us dooooown
>>737260724my bad on that, one day this game will become fully stable i (don't) promise.
>>737260917Disconnecting is one thing, not rejoining is punishable by death
>Clutched itMultiplayer lobby where?
>>737256390Isn't snecko good because you draw two extra cards each turn? The confusion could mess you up by making cards cost 3, yeah, but there's also an equal chance the cards ends up costing 0.
getting both snecko eyes and snecko skull should have some sort of combo/set effect.
>>737260846Final boss, disconnect, and the necro won't rejoin because he has to shove eggs up his ass or something. I'm never going to recover from this
>>737261264Precisely why snecko was so good for Clad and Defect in StS1. You could click on every card that said two and you only had a 25% chance of it turning out worse every time you drew it.Haven't gotten to try it with Regent. Does it randomize star costs as well?
>>737261376You get one of those post run achievements for it. I've gotten it two times now!
Doormaker is a skill check. He doesnt do much damage, but he requires you to play your cards correctly and plan for future turns. Chinks just vaaku their hands and get mad when they lose.
>>737261264The extra draw is why its good. Hell even fake snecko eye can be good if most of your deck already costs 2+
>>737260510Westoids are more inclined to cope about how the game being shit means they aren't good enough.>I built Sly Silent because I got good cards for it, a perfectly logical decision>Oh no the act 3 boss is Doormaker and his anti-draw phase killed me>Guess I'm bad at the gameChinks are smart enough to understand that no, the game is just retarded. Doormaker is retarded. He dominates all discussion of the game right now. Nobody gives a fuck about a random attack getting +1 or -1 damage, it's literally all just Doormaker.
>>737260724It doesn't look like he's coming back, so I'm taking off to get something to eat. The fight would've gone smoother than test subject either way. GG anons.
>>737261531ehhhh i feel like it's too much from the get go, having your entire hand be debuffed with exhaust the moment he goes into the real fight is genuinely a bit much, it should probably get harder the longer he is left alive instead
>>737261531this. i watched my friend savescum doormaker like 7 times back-to-back and it was a disaster. he just didn't get what his win condition was or how to achieve it. pretty much the>you have to play the fight, not the turnboss
>>737261640>having your entire hand be debuffed with exhaust the moment he goes into the real fight is genuinely a bit much,turn it around and realize that you now have a turn where you can exhaust all your subpar cards for free while gaining block and doing damage.exhausts being all bad is such an entry level take.
>>737261584yeah sadly, it was fun though while it lasted gg
>>737233663Shit, they also removed the exploit where you can use arrow keys to select as many cards as you want for transformation/upgrade/removal.
>>737261547>have a whole act to find answer>subhumanoid cant do shitJust play A0 brainlet bug
>>737261767this is going off the notion that you willingly picked bad cards and have never cut cards from your deck throughout the entirety of the run. if i have "subpar" cards by the time i make it to the act 3 boss i'm going to assume i've made some really bad choices getting there
>>737233663A game being disliked by the Chinese is a requirement for it being good. Any game China loves is garbage.
>>737261889Average A10 save scummers calling others shit on /v/ be like:
>>737261824>>737261584GG's I hate ants now
>>737260510the Chinese are the only major nation on earth that haven't been completely buckbroken by fandom worship
>>737261915There's still the assumption that you have some core cards that do the bulk of the work in your deck, and you're playing other cards to get to them faster.
>>737261915you can boil every deck down to the essentials and make it twice as good
>>737261767If strikes and defends were in the common card pool would you take them on the chance you find pandora's box?Saying just keep deadweight in your deck is stupid when the entire point of the game is to make decks with high synergy cards.
poorfag here. I haven't played StS2 yet.>doormakerQRD?
>>737258783You don't it's a gambling "game" like all "roguelites". This genre is glorified slots for retarded zoomers.
>>737261889>Shit, they also removed the exploit where you can use arrow keys to select as many cards as you want for transformation/upgrade/removal.
la puerta...
>>737261913you should be trying to answer door from floor 1. you have a 66.6% chance of fighting door in each run.
>>737262024>beforeDoormaker basically did damage to you, and not much else>nowDoormaker rotates through different things it does. Can punish specific decks
>>737262048All games are gambling if you think about it. Crazy how this shit was ever made legal.
>>737262048If its gambling how come the best players can basically win 25 times in a row at the highest difficulty?
>>737262017do you have a voltaic deck? surely you have a ton of cards that generate lightning to beef it up. now, do you really need these cards once you get the voltaic going? once voltaic starts scaling itself to the heavens, all your other damage cards are going to act like curses, so exhausting them and being able to play voltanic every single turn will instantly win you the fight.
>>737258783Do people really reset willingly?Just save & quit an encounter if you are in that much of a pinch.How do you even get to a10 with that little patience?
>>737262109Doormaker punishes all types of decks, that's the problem.
>>737262121They’re cheating. Cope, no one can actually win 25x in a row.
>>737262193Don't be a one trick pony
The funniest part is that the chinese playerbase outright embraces savescumming, all the pros just savescum like crazy every single turn to the point they use specialized mods to savescum more efficiently.
>>737261915>I only pick top cards without regards to how the run is doing>adapting? fuck that
Designing a boss in a deckbuilder to fuck over as many decks as possible was never gonna be a popular choice, not sure what they were expecting. Launch Doormaker wasn't so easy that this rework was justified. Feels a little too aggressive for me, especially considering the other bosses didn't receive similar changes. You either get a boss you can play around or you get Doormaker and you're more than likely fucked regardless of whatever you're cooking.
>>737262204They literally stream their runs
>>737262096whats that third badge?Never seen it
First time playing it, does the runs get harder as you play more? I cleared it on my first try as a warrior and a rogue, but now i feel like its gotten way harder where i cant even get through act 2, or was it some dumb begginers luck.
>>737262024Boss that cycles thru 3 phases, each turn is a different phase.Phase 1 all cards exhaust when you play them, phase 2 you can't draw new cards, phase 3 you lose 1 energy per card played. If you have 30ish cards and can draw a lot, you'll be fine.
>>737262249if adapting means picking up a bunch of bad cards that will be an active detriment throughout act 3 so i can use them as exhaust fodder for doormaker then i would rather just call it a bad boss.
>>737262298Streaming is an easy cheating method. You just get someone to feed you answers you started a run on your seed.
>>737262298There are tons of ways to cheat on stream.
>>737262290at some point you have to get tired of putting so much effort into your baits all thread
>>737262121>after 1000 hours for 0.001% of the player base it stops being gamblingYou were hooked on this because of the gambling mechanics, you keep playing this game because getting that one decisive random card/event/relic and being lucky feels extremely good, not because there exists a flowchart of decisions with which you can always win. If you strip the game of the gambling aspects luterally noone would play it.
>>737262302
>>737262109ah, so it filters deck-types. brutal.
>>737256651>you are getting buttfucked by the retards who think Silksong is acceptabletf does that even mean
>>737261915You will have some "bad" cards in your deck on an average run because you need something to survive act1 even if it doesn't work with your end game engine.If you get to the act3 bosses without having any bad cards every sinlge time, it's likely that you have lost some winnable runs because you refuse to take something that let you survive.
my hot cocoa? the warmestmy upgrades? the strongestmy food? the tastiestmy pillow? the softest
>>737257848That one seems fair to me
>>737262340thanks
It's funny how people freak the fuck out over Doormaker yet yellow dog is borderline completely impossible in multiplayer without taking severe amounts of dmg. I guess it's just friendless losers complaining lol.
>>737262318Yes, in typical rogueslop fashion, the more you play the more useless crap bloats the pools so you can't find what you want as easily.
>exhaust my win condition on turn 2>WHY IS DOORMAKER SO BROKEN THIS IS DISRESPECTFUL TO CHINESE CULTURE YOU WHITE PIG DEVELOPER
>>737262024If you brought a small deck you're cooked.If you brought a deck that relies on drawing cards to function you're cooked.If you brought a deck that relies on playing a whole bunch of cards per turn, you're cooked, on several levels.This encompasses about two thirds of what could be called "good decks".
>>737262485Why the fuck would I want friends if they act like you?
>>737262485dog is easy in multiplayer if you just tell your friends not to spam skills turn one
>>737262342>pick only good cards on act 1>fill deck with powers and card draw>get fucked before even reaching the first chest
Fellas I'm an extreme retard that needs HELP with Defect.I seriously can't do A10 (6 failed attempts) with Defect. I feel like I'm constantly being out-scaled, what should I be doing differently? I never feel like I'm doing enough damage, EVER.
>>737262116Not really, there are plenty of games where luck and probabilities aren't central, I'd say most of them even. However the most popular ones like compshit FPSs, mobas and obviously roguelites all do incorporate gambling aspects as primary or secondary mechanics.
>>737262497Yeah, but im talking stats wise, it feels like enemies have more hp and hit harder than in my first run, or does this stay the same?
>>737262580you have a very binary way of thinking about what is a good card, it's obviously relative depending on what you are doing in the run. a bad card in one run can be a good card in another.
>>737262485Doorman affects singleplayer and multiplayer.Experiment mostly affects multiplayer, and even then is limited to that first phase.
how are the shitters and chink niggas going to handle spire 2's version of this if the goatse lord is causing them this must angst and self hatred?
>>737262340>If you have 30ish cards and can draw a lot, you'll be finei think the biggest problem is that the rest of the game punishes you for doing this
>>737262665enemies have more stats at ascension 8 and 9.if you're not there yet, it's the same as A0
>>737262318Only the ascensions setting makes things harder
>>737233663Hidden marathon shill thread
>>737262515save this message and look back at it in a month once you've learned how to play the boss. i was like you when they first changed it for the beta branch, but now he's hardly a problem.
>>737262556He's pretty bad if you're playing slow deck cycle builds. Hell, in 2p he scales brutally fast even if the only thing you do is play block. In solo his hp is low enough that you can get away with bursting down phase 1.I don't think I've ever made it through the phase 1 without taking at least 40 dmg and his third turn is usually unsurvivable.He's unironically a bigger filter than Door in multi.
>>737262707nobody played that shit so who cares?>self hatredprojection kek
>>737262412silksong continues to cause meltdowns for some reason
Reminder that the Chinaman's sin is simply being too numerous. Their average IQ is roughly 100 (regardless of the lies their gov loves to propagate), so you still have half a billion mouthbreathers at or south of that line shitting up the world
How do you play act 2 right?
>>737262768Not true.Epoch unlocks also make things harder.
>>737262670Thats my entire fucking pointAnon said he doesnt pick cards that are good on act 1 that will hinder him on act 3So how are you supposed to get past act 1 in the first place?I will take a Perfect Strike on floor 2Yes it will be shit against doorman but at least I got there
>>737260510>English dropped from 'overwhelmingly' to 'very'oh no spirebros...
>>737262912draw + energy generation, also make sure you have an aoe solution. knowing the fights also helps.
>>737262897>average iq is at 100>therefore the median iq is 500 millionRetard-kun, I...
>>737262929Not really. Underdocks is easier than Overgrowth and you get access to more broken Ancients and card synergies.
thought I was completely fucked walking into the second boss with 6 hp with no significant dex boosts but there was upgraded serpent form waiting for me to use my duplicate potion on it.
>>737262967>I will take a Perfect Strike on floor 2and you are 100% correct in doing so.
>>737262318No it actually gets easier since more options unlock that let you break the game easily.
>>737262707>get tungsten rod>wow heart is trivial now
>>737262017>entire point of the game is to make decks with high synergy cards.Do that and keep losing in act 1 on a10 then. You need some "this will help me get by" cards.
>>737262618I can’t think of a single game that doesn’t involve gambling.
>>737261919You used this cope against me despite my a10 winstreak being on the patch where that shit was fixed. You're just a faggot.
>>737233663It's just another soulless, uninspired roguelike deckbuilder, why does it even get any level of attention at all?
God dangit mangle does it again.
Playing above a1 is for retards and tryhards
>>737262017It's really obvious you're not at A9 lol
>struggle with a boss>know that other people do not struggle with that boss>blame the game anywaysWhy is it so unbelievable to some "people" that there is room for them to improve?
>>737262024to add to all that, you can't hurt him on turn one, which is before the phases start
>>737263228anon slay the spire is the reason all the other deck builders are uninspired, it's basically the progenitor of the sub genre
>>737263279lmao
>>737261915Have you never played an ironclad deck where you exhaust most of your deck using fiend fire and only keep playing the same 2-3 cards every single turn until the boss dies because they are the best way to expend energy?A few strong cards is what kill bosses, the rest of the deck is just there to support them and letting your survive long enough until the boss dies.
>>737263349Yeah it's tragic but battle trance is battle trance, you know?
>>737262602if you're pathing into advance pool of enemies you might as well go into elites for the relic, extra gold and better card rewards
>>737263313it's easier to blame the game when you lose than it is to admit to yourself you did something wrong.
>>737256651>I'm playing shit to have funIf you have fun going through the motions in a shitty power fantasy that does nothing to challenge you, I think you should go read shonen and watch tom cruise action movies instead of shitting up my hobby you retarded nigger tourist
>>737262602>2 elites totalHoly retard. Wtf are you doing?
>>737263313Because a lot of them used to games that have low skill ceiling where every players can perform really close to the best with some playtime investment.They don't truly believe that a thousands hours of StS is not enough to make everyone a good player.
>>737261915>hmm no i cant take sword boomerang because it's a c-tier card, even though the upcoming boss is that black slime one with a ton of buffersyou're never gonna make it
>>737263360Ironclad is the only character that would exhaust regular cards like that and his non-exhaust options are usually better anyway.
>>737263313American MC mindset. Chinks unironically also have begun falling into this way of thinking.
>>737256651>the only people who have your best interests in mindwhat are my best interests, faggot? I like a10 even though I lose most of my runs because it's challenging and I get to see how far I can take a questionable deck. If I want less challenge and a higher winrate I have 9 easier ascensions and custom games available to me. You're looking out for your own pathetic ego - you want the satisfaction beating the hardest game mode, but because you can't do that, you want it made easier. If you're>playing shit to have funand the game is too hard for you to have fun, then play an easier mode you dumb FAGGOT.
>>737262412silksong was relatively hard as video games go, the existence of a difficult video game sends game journalists and other subhumans into a frothing meltdown.
>>737263542>act 1 is actually act 3have you ever noticed there's a skip option on card rewards?
>>737263579It's not about exhaust cards being good or bad, it's about how a deck with only your 5 best cards is better than a deck with 20 strong cards.
>>737263159Any kind of rng makes a game gambling to you? Like SMB1 is gambling because bowser's fire patterns are picked randomly from finite pool?
>>737263510I'll never get that. I played thousands of hours to dota and got to immortal, meaning I was in the top 1% of players. But I knew that my MMR was closest to the worst player in the game than the best player in the game and that I was only king of the shitters. I never blamed the devs for balancing around the pros - why would I?
>>737263313I think one of the biggest factors is that it's really difficult to point out what your mistakes are in any given run, so learning from them is hard and only comes with a lot of experience.
>>737263606a0 is the lowest it goes and doorman with all the same complaints is there too.a0 should be as easy as people want because as you said you can go play with ascension modifiers if you want a challenge.
>>737261915This is the mind of someone who "thinks" about the game a lot but doesn't actually play it. This "person" does not win a10 runs but wants to talk about game balance.>I read that a thin deck is good, so if you have any "bad" cards by the end you must be a shitter.This "person" has had maybe a dozen thoughts in his entire life.
>>737263836If you lose to doorman in A0 you're a subhuman with double digit IQ whose opinions don't matter anyway.
>>737263836If you're losing consistently at a0 then you're so stupid that it should be illegal for you to share your "thoughts" with others. Do a custom run with all the positive modifiers if you (fucking somehow) need the game to be easier than a0. I'd recommend that you kill yourself but you'd probably fail at that, too.
>>737263861>actually I am an intellectual for taking a card I don't really need because I am gambling that the final boss will graciously remove that card in exchange for my draw and energy that turnCool.
>>737256651A10 is too easy and all the enemies outside of Act 1 need to be buffed significantly. Just compare the Queen to Awakened One or literally any Act 3 elite to Repto...
>>737233826daily reminder to post the tiananmen square copypasta to keep the chinks away

hostingsteam://joinlobby/2868840/109775242470285334/76561197998025205
The best way to fix the doorman situation : make him easier at A8 and lower. let him stay the same at A9+hate this nigga because the game is too hard? there you go.(some people gonna still complains anyway because it hurt their ego, but the true and geenuine casuals will be happy)
>NOOO I CANT EXHAUST GLACIER >NOOO I CANT EXHAUST TWIN STRIKE>NOOO I CANT EXHAUST ULTIMATE STRIKE>NOOO I CANT EXHAUST CLOAK OF STARS>NOOO I CANT EXHAUST DYING STAR>NOOO I CANT EXHAUST ENFEEBLING TOUCH
>>737263932>>737263954you really cant imagine people wanting a casual experience in the lowest difficulty setting in the game? how do you even manage to imagine what the cards you are picking might do?
>>737264105>custom runs no longer grant progress
>>737264124enfeebling touch is good at every stage of the game though. at worst it is still better than a defend and at best it is better value than some 2 and 3 cost skills.
>>737263423>>737263492I'm fuckin dying. How am I supposed to deal damage with this fuckin character?
>>737264105If you can't beat a0 then you don't need to progress.>>737264125a0 is a casual experience. And custom runs are the lowest difficulty setting in the game. If you don't like being told where you belong then improve until you no longer belong there, whiny faggot.
>>737263753Yeah, that shit is manipulative to children. Look how far nintendo has gone now to prove it.
>>7372641083/4
>>737264185all those cards are good
Other bosses should be brought up to doorman's level imo
newfag herei found a bug with picrel on my own and wanted to ask if it's already common knowledge before wasting my time writing a bug report for something they are already aware of
>>737260607Unless that shit is guano right?
how exactly does the doormaker ruin loops?
>>737264252how the fuck would anyone know what you're talking about?
>>737264193Defect already has decent dmg built into his kit with dual cast and zap. He's pretty good at taking early elites especially in Act 1. You should be taking minimum 2 elites, preferably 3 in Act 1.
>>737264252what bug
>>737264381>>737264397it exhausts a card, exhausting cards is terrible i dont think the gamedevs meant to have us do it on purpose
>>737239767Yes and yes.
>>737264359Exhaust phase let's you loop only once since he eats all your cards.Eye phase can't loop since draw is disabled.Goatse phase can't loop since he eats your energy.
>>737264454holy shit yeah you should report that, makes no sense. i never take that card so i wouldnt know what it did.
>>737260607yeah they only eat piss soaked eggs and bats
>>737264484works on my machine
>>737234672Elden Shit is fucking dogshit and the DLC is worse
>>737264573>40 cardsDoesn't count
>>737264573you're not supposed to have a large deck! you only won because you were cheating
>>737264616Small deck twink cope
door completely counters small decks. Most of the fun builds are small decks
why are trannies are drawn to playing necrobinder and defect?
>>737264657>>737264616i'll fukken do it again
>>737264616>>737264657anyways what's small enough?
>>737264707Small decks are boring AF desu. We all Large here.
>>73726478015 or less
i only take official s-tier cards from jorbs official tier list youtube video.
>>737260510The drawback of selling your game to the chinese is having to deal with the chinese.
wtf this guy counters my shiv deck? they should change this boss so that it doesnt counter the deck anymore and lets me win by mindlessly spamming shivs.
>>737264831>my deck has no D tier cards, Kaiba!>it only has cards approved by Jorbs my favorite stre-ACK!
>>737234419Chinaman detected
>>737262024He's the easiest of the A3 bosses once you stop being scared of him. People are mad because it's the one boss that kinda forces you to think ahead.
>>737251792I hate the glow nerf
>>737264984Queen is the easiest and it's not close. She needs a buff or rework desu.
I get that Doorman is harder but holy shit so many people are ousting themselves getting skill gapped in this thread lmao.Also, if you're complaining about multiplayer you are actually shit at the game because it is objectively easier the more people you have.
>>737264685wanna let me play with your big deck while you play with my small deck?
>>737251792Defy needed nerf desu. Having permanent weak on a block card on a character with built in barricade/bodyslam was extremely OP.
>>737264381cause i found it pretty easy to replicate and doesn't seem hard to find on your own through regular gameplay but you are right, it was pretty silly of me to assume a post that vague would be understandable>>737264397i suck at recording so forgive me if it looks terrible but this is the bug. Basically you can skip the exhaust requirement if you click on the eye icon cause the game will pop up the check mark to proceed with the card draw effect
>>737264917Wait a moment, that's the degenerate capitalist Bugsy Bunny masquerading as Hideki Tojo, leader of the japanese pigs.
>>737265136Send them a bug report in game. Supposedly they read all of them.
>>737263542except doorman in act 3 is basically telling you>you have to pick up fodder cards that will be an active detriment to the entirety of act 3 because he said so. picking up sword boomerang in act 1 isn't going to cuck your decks consistency because act 1 doesn't ask you for much to get through it
>>737265136>mfw they nerf the burning pact bug
>>737234915>>737241294>Indian Scammers>Chinese Cheaters>Nigerian ThugsThese three demographics will dictate future discourse btw
>>737258625>>737258795If you have some means of generating random cards, and they could heal you, it would be objectively correct to stall infinitely wherever possible until you leave the encounter with max hp. That would be fucking gay, so they make it impossible instead.
>>737263861this has nothing to do with whether you have a thin or thick deck and the fact you see it that way means you are vastly more meta brained.
>>737265253>you have to pick up fodder cards that will be an active detriment to the entirety of act 3 because he said soif you built your deck in a way that you need "fodder cards that will be an active detriment to the entirety of act 3" then you should consider it.
>China prioritizes fun over flexing your 'git gud' bonerwtf i love china now
>>737265331>actually if the player did what they wanted that would be fucking gayPar for the course with these devs. They are retarded.
what a good thing Slay the Spire 2 has mod support so that you can mod it to be as easy as you want, because you clearly dont care about the developers vision
>>737265424>going infinite every single run>fun
>>737265331>actually if the player did what they wanted that would be fucking gayExtremely based devs. They are geniuses.

>>737262469hang yourself
>>737265331idk man just make it more rare, outright removing it is so gay
>>737265608good thing it doesn't matter what is fun for them because the devs don't agree with them and would rather make the game more fun for me
>>737262897asians always had higher iq on the average, you imbecile
>>737256651what's bad about silksong

>>737265729Too hard for him lol
>>737265684dev opinions literally dont matter.hence the negative reviews and poorer reception.
>>737264389>>737262602Whats wrong with my card choices? I feel like I keep being out-scaled damage wise and can never end fights fast enough.
>>737265726they save scum the iq tests
>>737234419Thank you for quoting me verbatim. And yes, I stand by my statement!
Orobas's upgrade for Bash is really fucking stupid. I didn't realise it lowered the cost at first.
>>737265507No, I need to play yon the highest difficulty and win every game. If I have to change something myself my victories don't feel earned.
>>737265507I just like Brown Regent even if she's too small, but now that I beat A1 I have to go back to losing on Silent/Defect
>>737266510It was buffed in patch
>>737233787>it's how reviews should be usedactually no, you should leave a review because you think a game is bad and people won't like playing it, not because you want extra negotiating power.In other words, if you would leave a negative review even if it would have no effect on the devs' actions.
>developer's visionBecause they've historically had good opinions regarding enemy balance, right anon? They clearly know how their game should be balanced better than the players.
>>737266815Yes, for the most part.
>>737266815yes sts1 is incredibly balanced and the reason it outshines every other deck builder that has come after it.
>>737266510I think that's how more of the orobas card upgrades should be. quadcast and suppress are cool but they are kinda shit compared to most ancient options.
>>737260736Well that just speaks to the reddit transition continuing, it should be impossible to ban for that anywhere on this site because it would mean banning everyone
>>737266815It's early access, shit will change all the time, for better or worse.

>>737267717it don't go down
>>737266815Yeah, they made an amazing game that I kept replaying despite there not being any changes for the last couple of years.
>>737267706>>737267774GG was close

>>737256043Cringe feminist detected
>>737267851You mean a skill-infused tryhard
I AM SPEED
If I enchant this card with Instinct, is it 12 damage + additional, or total damage x 2?
I love how you can alway tell in these threads who never got eternal one/won on a20 with each character multiple times in sts1.

>>737265136>I play pot of greed! This allows me to draw 2 cards from my deck!
>>7372686493/4
>>737233826But they do. They cry about it on anonymous imageboards making up power fantasies.Thats all they do.
Finally got my revenge on this guy
steam://joinlobby/2868840/109775242476503827/76561197997192985come play and pick the good cards, not the bad cards
>Is my deck and card playing ability so bad? No, it's the devs who are wrong
>>737267063KEK true. Funny racism is a lost art desu. Now it's just racism for the sake of it. I don't think I've laughed at single chink or jeet racismpost in /v/ for years.
>>7372691962/4
>>737266960suppress+ is broken it completely solves weak for your deck and is innate, 17 damage and doesn't exhaust
>>737256651Tiananmen square
feels nice having a god run once in a while
fuk i cavedstable or beta branch for starting out?
>>737258591I'd rather fight Doormaker than the Queen half the timeHis debuffs aren't as gay as "lol you can't use 3/5 of your hand every turn, hope your deck has 20 draw cards"
>>737267002what's in the box?
>>737268612Instinct is really goodI had a run where I got it on two copies of Meteor and it was the freest Act 3 I've ever had
>>737269626I ended up losing to Queen but yeah the rest of the act was pretty free
>>737267851you had a month to give feedback about him why are you just now getting mad
>>737269491beta
>>737261380sorry just got back from shoving eggs up my ass.I didnt realize the game started up again :(
>>737262373I know you don't actually understand the game's mechanics and just want to complain about rougelites, but it does have many strategic components which can lead to high winrates just like the best players. You can downplay that fact all you want for the sake of making your shitty retarded argument, but it's true and anyone can do it.You're also misrepresenting the many risk/reward plays it has as mere gambling, as if there's nothing you can do to influence the result of your actions when it's mostly the opposite. You would know, again, if you actually knew anything about this game beyond it being part of a genre you don't like.
>>737269475I had 2x Sealed Throne + Particle Wall + Black Hole the other day and I wish I had 10 unlocked on Regent already cause it would have been literally free
>>737269532bound isn't even an issue. You can still pick one of the bound cards to use so you still can use any card in your hand to draw more.
>>737269532Queen is the easiest Act 3 boss
>hit seven events in act 3>no corruption to burst down doorman>walk into door man>only draw one of my five powers across turn 1 and 2, energy relics go to waste>die two turns laterincredible
>>737269436>bird swoop+neutralizewow thats totally worth an ancient relic
>>737270104Tell that to all the runs that refuse to give me more than 1 draw cardAnd bad shufflesJust let me break out the crystal ball that tells me that using my draw card to unfuck my hand on turn 3 will get me killed on turn 5
>>737267634I always ate the egg. Free and immediate max HP > wasting a bonfire for a basic damage card.
>>737270160scratch that, one turn laterliterally just base cards and defends turn 1, then base cards and my two core cards to loop turn 2. all my powers and weakness got bottom decked and i took 40 in two turns.
>>737266960Suppress can be better than his other optionsNecro's upgrade blows unless you just picked up Reanimate on the boss reward or something
>>737270278me too
>>737270169Yes
as much as i hate that son a bitch, knowledge demon is probably the best designed slay the spire boss everthe whole "choose your poison" gimmick means he never truly hard counters any one deck type because you can always choose the debuff that hurts you less, but it still makes the fight harder no matter which one you pick
>>737262193It only punishes>thin decks every third turn by exhausting cards>decks that rely a lot on draw by not allowing draw every third turn>badly balanced energy requirements by adding costs every third turnPower decks are fine. Passive draw is fine. Card generation is super useful for this boss. Even if you have a perfect 14 card deck, you SEE he's coming up an entire act in advance, just add some filler or farm relics or go for powers that generate passive value.
>>737270339he's a pushover and thats why you like him
>>737270365idk why you faggots act like act 3 alone is enough to prepare for door makeryou're gonna fix a 14 card deck with 5 card rewards and a shop?
>>737255823you can even go to underwater basketweaving forums and discuss the reviews, imagine that.
>>737270385he literally has the highest death% per encounter of any boss
finally made it to a8 as ironclad, could only win by abusing demonform and the colourless card that gives you a free attack from any class
>>737270449for a0 retardbabies maybe
doormaker needs a nerf
>>737269789danke
>>737270191I just think doormaker causes the same problems as bound but more. At least bound still lets you go off if your deck is built right.
>>737270430why do you only have 14 cards by the end of act 2? Stop trying to avoid taking cards in a deck builder.
>>737270586Bruh
>>737270586Queen and Test Subject need to be buffed to be on par with Doormaker
megacrit wants to have thier cake and eat it too, designing a bunch of encounters that assfuck you for having inconsistent draw (which encourages having a smaller more consistent deck) and then also making encounters that assfuck you for having a small deck
I have a feeling he doesn't like this card...
what is the equivalent of the faustian spirit in sts2
>>737271005How does this fucker ALWAYS take my best card? He never takes a strike or defend
>>737271057He looks into your run history and picks out the cards you like the most.
>megacrit wants to have thier cake and eat it too, designing a bunch of encounters that assfuck you for having inconsistent draw (which encourages having a smaller more consistent deck) and then also making encounters that assfuck you for having a small deck
>>737271004>nooo i have to skip/remove all the cards in my deck builder!!!!The obvious answer is a big deck with lots of draw. Are you just being retarded on purpose?
>>737271057He goes for uncommons first.
>>737271114>China needs to be carpetbombed with napalm so lets ignore the obvious issues with the game
>>737271020Prismatic Gem
>>737271057Apparently he has some preference for what he takes. I think it goes uncommon > common > rare> basic > curse. If you can manipulate your deck enough on turn 1 then you can influence what he takes.
>>737262602>>737266089Claw is generally the best way for Defect to scale. If you see any in A1, take it, then keep picking them.
lel, sorry you guys had to watch that. ggs
gg, timely reminder to not spam skills on the test subject until you an kill him
damngg
>>737268649I had 32 stars, 16 vigor, stardust and a dream that stayed a fucking meme because this fucker went intangible when all stars aligned
gg, I had something going with radiance, but said fuck it in act 3 and went all in on heirloom hammering the sword.
gg, hand bricked too hard at the start there
>>737262730>i think the biggest problem is that the rest of the game punishes you for doing thishow so? this isn't sts1
>MEGACRII YOU MAKE ME ROSE MY RAN >DOORMAKAH DISGRACE TO GREAT CHINESE POPURATION>MY GRORIOUS 15 CARD DECK, ARR EXHAUSTED
>English reviews still at 94% positiveLiteral nothingburger
i still havent won a nonsavescummed a10 run and now i have to figure out how to beat door too...

How does multiplayer with mods work? Does everyone need the same mods installed or can you just invite your friend to join your modded game and it just works?
i want to play with a big deck and get destroyed by it
>>737265424>wants to play a10>doesn't want to git gud>wants to ruin it for people who enjoy the challengestop being selfish and accept your place lil bro, a1-5 will be plenty fun for you.
>>737267478it's literally impossible to get the curse on accident if you use small divination
>>737273794A0-8 is free. 9 is the massive difficulty spike that pretty much requires you to completely rewire your brain. Kinda weird how it's designed desu.
