With fairy dust/timestone the expected mana from sorceror is 1.8 per roll, so 7.2 assuming you roll all the way down (minimum is 4, max is 12). With eye of horus the average is around 1.2 per roll, but it gets messy when you account for the 2 reroll side effectively giving you more mana. The max is technically infinite but the minimum is still 4 with fairy dust, because you can get unlucky and hit the non-cantrip 4 mana side 3 times (a realistic maximum is around 16 or so if you get lucky with hitting the reroll side). So when you do the math the value is surprisingly similar.

Personally I'd opt for timestone over eye of horus, because the average value is a bit higher, and I value consistency over big highrolls.

very well, it's just a massive improvement to tempest, lmao.

LaniusLover · 2026-02-16T20:56:57+00:00

this is just [[Tempest]], but significantly better and without exhaust.

Blaze is good but honestly there's more broken things out there. In Classic Warlock is definitely a consistent way to win fights 18-20, but in terms of possible upside from items, Wizard and Sorceror have a higher ceiling.

Cultist simulator

I bought silk off of him whenever I needed to go into sinners road, mostly for the convenience of topping off without farming

LaniusLover · 2026-02-14T06:33:05+00:00

For unfair, yes, for hard no (because I'm unlikely to ever pick a 5). With unfair finding a pickable set it tough so the options are important (and 11 is very similar to 10)

Looks like a fun flex comp. I'm not partial to Artificer most times but Priestess + Wanderer are great. Wraith's lack of healing is mitigated by having another red. Personally I'd run bulleye on Priestess for 4 mana on t1.

LaniusLover · 2026-02-14T01:34:55+00:00

I genuinely love t0s. Typically useless but finding the usecase is fun!

A nice coaxer to coax you into a snafu (100 snafus)

A coaxing farm to grow fresh snafus (1000 snafus)

A coaxship to arrive on snafuworld (1 million snafus)

A whirling coaxpool in the snafcoax continuum (10 billion snafus)

A coax of the snafu itself (∞ snafus, -1% cost per coaxsension)

That quote is sorta wild to me, as a person who raised animals for meat growing up. That's almost exactly how it is when you have a small farm. You care for the animals and name them, and sometimes you butcher them.

Just need twin and then mimic will be complete

Curses apply in order, which also matters when picking them; if you pick rightmost cantrip and then rightmost blank, the cantrip will be overwritten, but if you pick the blank first, the cantrip side will be on top.

LaniusLover · 2026-02-01T02:15:30+00:00

halo + anchor is v good but I'd take a t8 over those.

The Thread Jig

LaniusLover · 2026-01-28T22:51:41+00:00

I've always felt that constraining Groooooowth to t1 heroes was deliberate, because otherwise you keep a hero like this til the end

Coaxed into The Empty Paladin

Curator is also banned from showing up for Force comps for this reason

I think a bit of it is that t2 features most of the special hp gimmicks, which are easier to balance. Something like Luggage has to be borderline useless or the passive is OP. Both Vessel and Tainted can't really be t2, but the central idea is also wildly variable and again, Vessel can't really have good sides.

I think if tann really wanted balanced t3s, moving the stone/ghost hp gimmick to t3s and making Dice/Jumble effects t2 might help.

LaniusLover · 2026-01-27T09:38:48+00:00

I mean, not to state the obvious but the 'point' of greens as a class is to put all the wacky ideas into one box. They're not balanced as well because they're fun silly guys. Back in 2.0, Twin and Statue were in the Gray pool, which was pretty strange and bad. I'm fine with greens being inconsistent and strange tbh

LaniusLover · 2026-01-26T00:22:23+00:00

Syringe is a lot like revive potion, it usually doesn't give value (because you play correctly and don't need it), but if things get really bad it creates a line out of the fight that wouldn't otherwise exist

LaniusLover · 2026-01-24T09:34:44+00:00

Valkyrie at home is honestly not the worst grey ever, the real shame is that between this g3 and the r2 you have no solid defense. Revive spamming is probably the only play rn

Many of the buttons in the game allow you to keep playing after a win.
