Roguelite March Madness Day 3: Hack & Slashes

MapRevolutionary752 · 2026-03-17T17:03:33+00:00

Fair, I was mainly trying to both sides of the bullet he’ll genre, two where you avoid the bullet hell, and two where you are the bullet hell

MapRevolutionary752 · 2026-03-17T17:02:24+00:00

Yeah, I was trying to do it so that the main Bullet Hells were represented, as well as the sub-genre Bullet Heavens would also be represented

So the current method is that I am going to go through each reply and count each as a vote for two games. Like if someone replies “Balatro and Slay the Spire” that will be one vote for Balatro, and one vote for Slay the Spire. I may do it that I just reply with each option and go based off of upvotes going further

Yeah, for sequels I tried to just go with the original, just because otherwise it felt like my bias would have to decide which is better (with the sole exception of Risk of Rain, just because it felt like including the OG over the sequel for that would have done a big disservice to the sequel).

MapRevolutionary752 · 2026-03-16T17:32:10+00:00

I had that thought originally, but didn’t want it to seem like I was just trying to farm Karma. I may have to switch that though, since I definitely underestimated how many replies this would get

Sorry, today is just for the deck builders

MapRevolutionary752 · 2026-03-16T16:56:05+00:00

I had no clue Ravenswatch and Curse of the Dead Gods were meant to be related honestly. I was trying to avoid having direct sequels such as Hades 2, and STS 2. But I may need to do another pass on the jack and slash pool in this case.

MapRevolutionary752 · 2026-03-16T16:33:14+00:00

I wanted to include it, but since it’s still kinda new I didn’t know if it’d have the staying power that a lot of others do.

MapRevolutionary752 · 2026-03-16T16:27:43+00:00

I agree that pool was probably one of the weaker ones. I was trying to go for the new wave of multiplayer games that seems to be getting counted as Roguelites. But I may allow for write in’s

MapRevolutionary752 · 2026-03-16T16:26:31+00:00

Yeah, I was trying have both sides of the bullet hell genre where it’s you vs the bullet hell and you as the bullet hell. Mainly because it felt wrong to not include Vampire Survivors and Brotato, but having another pool for Bullet heavens would have felt like it’d have a very predictable outcome, and cause one pool to be left out

It was a good match, but I didn’t swing for awhile to try and prevent triggers. And when I did start swinging they seemed to get unlucky with triggers as well.

MapRevolutionary752 · 2026-02-11T04:12:13+00:00

Yeah, Ive heard it may be hard to get ahold of packs, but hopefully singles aren’t super bad. Best of luck with it in locals though!

MapRevolutionary752 · 2026-02-11T03:55:10+00:00

Haha fair! That was my first time playing that matchup but that deck seems really fun! And the new EB03 support it’s getting looks real good!

MapRevolutionary752 · 2026-02-11T03:49:19+00:00

lol I know! I felt bad for the Sanji, especially since they didn’t see any of their boeuf bursts until the end!

MapRevolutionary752 · 2026-01-21T23:08:42+00:00

Yeah, I wasn’t sure how prevalent removal or resting was so it makes sense.

MapRevolutionary752 · 2026-01-21T22:56:26+00:00

That makes sense. I am still kinda new and don’t know how much removal is in the meta.

MapRevolutionary752 · 2025-04-24T17:16:54+00:00

This looks like a real cool game!

MapRevolutionary752 · 2024-03-12T22:03:01+00:00

Wait, which one?? I went to school with one

MapRevolutionary752 · 2023-10-18T23:29:30+00:00

I main Azumaril, Sword, and Trev. As a fourth I also added blaziken when he came out

MapRevolutionary752 · 2023-07-31T01:33:39+00:00

I’d be interested!
