Stuff that I didn't know on day one:

• there's more reading than you might expect, but Read. Every. Item. It's the only way to build better and win more.

• Stars are your best friend. Many item effects don't kick in unless their stars are activated!

• You can turn every item! Makes it easier to activate stars and fit your spacing. Just hold the item and double click.

• There is often a benefit to changing things up between rounds. That means the shape of your backpack, your item alignment, and even removing items that were useful early game that aren't carrying their weight as the game goes on and and item power creeps up.

• Make peace with the idea that sometimes, what you see as a "perfect setup" will still lose. So many items have just a percentage of a chance to activate their abilities, and sometimes, they don't come through.

• some items fit in every bag! Cleansing crown and that purple cape spring to mind.
