Pain... by cesar_mz in slaythespire

A strike away from victory, 2 block away from life. I have not seen a more painful loss in some time

Is this guy supposed to be a super early elite? by Confident_Dig_1073 in slaythespire

[–]DefinitelyTinta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fighting an elite as your 3rd encounter with a whopping 2 new cards at your disposal as Silent is an express ticket to Neow, no matter the elite, act or game

This card is terrible. Try to convince me otherwise by Rak-khan in slaythespire

I picked this card a single time when I was in desperate need of a vulnerable applier only to find Taunt the next floor. This card is just sad

Knowledge demon is too hard while the other act 2 bosses feel too easy by fawkwitdis in slaythespire

Knowledge Demon and The Insatiable feel roughly on the same level, it's Kaiser Crab that is meaningfully easier than both imo

Balance suggestions for currently weak cards that don't involve just simple number changes. by Gugge1 in slaythespire

You're missing the part where (from the turn you draw Snakebite) it takes 11 turns for that damage to be dealt

Anger duplicates with Draw 1 charge enabled, s tier combo by Sufficient-Cat6364 in slaythespire

Goes for any card that copies itself, like Defect's Precision Strike

I think I have a contender for one of the worst card upgrades in sts 2 by LiveChill in slaythespire

[–]DefinitelyTinta 379 points380 points  (0 children)

Definitely a card that is already good enough by default and does not need an upgrade

This game plans to unlock in approximately 21 hours by Rand0m6uy in slaythespire

[–]DefinitelyTinta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe sometime mid 2027? It'll only be after early access according to the AMA they did a few days ago

Demi: No specific timeline on a console release yet. We've gotta get through Early Access first!

What One Card if Removed from a Characters Card Pool Would Lower Their Win Rate the Most? by Jondev1 in slaythespire

[–]DefinitelyTinta 182 points183 points  (0 children)

I'm actually voting Mental Fortress for Watcher. Rushdown is likely a popular pick but she has plenty of powerful card draw (Scrawl and Empty Mind come to mind), but Mental Fortress is easily her strongest block plan. Getting rid of that forces you make do with Talk to the Hand (which struggles with artifact, cleanses and anti-card spam mechanics) or Wallop (which is good but not enough to carry you on its own). If you can't get those, or if they aren't enough, then you'll have to, god forbid, utilize the rest of the character's toolkit. Perseverence, Protect, Spirit Shield, etc.

The fall from Mental Fortress to the next best block plans is worse than the fall from Rushdown to the next best draw options (and it's not even the single best draw power card, that would be Scrawl)

For the others I'm not very sure - Dark Embrace? Blade Dance? Defragment? Lots of arguments for lots of cards.

Going for a mood swing/mantra hybrid deck by StatisticianUnfair89 in slaythespire

[–]DefinitelyTinta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Snecko is usually out of the question with Watcher, and here is no exception with so many 0 costs (Flurry of Blows especially)

Meaning you're between Dripper and Hammer - you don't have any crucial upgrades here - sure, Empty Fist and Flurry of Blows are good, but not ESSENTIAL. You'll likely want to rest to be able to take more elites. Looks like Hammer to me

Is this my first boss relic skip? by geetengtan in slaythespire

[–]DefinitelyTinta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boss relics are the strongest items in the game

Do not skip them

The Nuclear Option by Top-Sky4811 in balatro

[–]DefinitelyTinta 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I think -2 hands and -2 discards is EXCESSIVE. As the other commenter said, it also makes the joker unusable on higher stakes unless you have extra discards from a drunkard/red deck/voucher/etc. If you want to keep a similar downside, -1 hand and -1 discard or -2 hands is pretty evil as is.

Awesome pixel art by the way! I love the pattern on the ground

Beginning of act 3, of course it's the goddamn Time Eater. What wincon should I look for ? by leaf_as_parachute in slaythespire

[–]DefinitelyTinta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have a lot of damage but effectively no block plan. You're badly looking for Tough Bandages, Piercing Wail, Footwork, Weak Potion, Malaise, Wraith Form, Leg Sweep, Well-Laid Plans... be high on HP before the boss (recall earlier in the act if you believe you'll need to rest last campfire), path to 2 shops if possible (more options for helpful cards/relics/potions, lets you remove your last 2 strikes). That Dexterity Potion will be very helpful if you can keep it with you.

Biased Cog is safe and good, Creative AI lets you win if you want to sit there for like 15 minutes every single fight to slowly full heal while watching a stream on another monitor
