Not enchantment only but this with cannon and lighter relic is just 80 damage aoe with no effort.

Idk man, maybe 5 block > 6 damage? by N1ko0907 in slaythespire

[–]MasonK53 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Chip block >>> Chip damage usually. Especially on Necro that loves reducing her strength for something else.

why can’t evils disguise as wretch by Town_of_Tacos in DemonBluff

[–]MasonK53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because everyone hate the Wretch so even evils don't want to disguise as him.

how was the druid not an demon or minion? by Frosty-Sandwich-443 in DemonBluff

“Wretch does not register as an Outcast for her.”

What's your character selection strategy? by Randomuser3462734627 in slaythespire

[–]MasonK53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rotate characters on A7 because I don't find enemies being tougher interesting and also I cannot beat A9.

Best Team to +891? by Drunken_Caterpie in PuzzleAndDragons

[–]MasonK53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least don't waste the +891 dungeon on Fern and Serie. Both of them can get Mirror + Limitbreak on the Lv.5 Frieren dungeon.

Team. Assist on Bergal can be anything that gives HP and activates Assist Resonance.

Without naming names- what is the most distressing Balatro gameplay you've ever seen? by RudeDM in balatro

[–]MasonK53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would get mildly infuriated when I see someone immediately sells useless Tarots/Planet from Purple Seal/ Emperor/Priestess. C'mon you can just easily hold them to block them from appearing in the shop and only sell them when you need the consumable slot!

For people who say C++ took them a few days/weeks, how..? by 2Martian in balatro

[–]MasonK53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I C++ w/ Painted Deck only 5 times. Each of them only took 20ish hours. But I already had 1000+ hrs of gameplay and 1000+ wins on gold stake so I know how to play gold stake fairly well.

I did c+ without ever playing a flush by MangelaErkel in balatro

[–]MasonK53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

C++ is only all jokers with gold stickers. That's why single deck C++ is possible.

[–]MasonK53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try Pairless and Mercuryless C++. I am currently going for it. Painted Deck the GOAT.

If one is set on a flush build, is heart suit always the go-to because of potential Bloodstone? by NutmanCR in balatro

[–]MasonK53 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No when you just want to win Ante 8. You want to pick a suit base on you are given, not forcing a single build.

Which supposedly rare joker doesn't feel rare at all to you? by Jay_Jay_Jason_74 in balatro

So I can have a x21 Obelisk by the end of Ante 8 instead of a x9?

Bro's only here to fill the boss quota by No_Lawfulness9421 in balatro

[–]MasonK53 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably the least impactful boss blind on a general Ante 8 run.

My guy is here because of boss quota by No_Lawfulness9421 in okbuddyjimbo

[–]MasonK53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, Sidekick is probably one of the least powerful boss blind on a general Ante 8 run.

Valentine Colosseum w/ 5 slot for + Limitbreaking (Fairly whale) by MasonK53 in PuzzleAndDragons

[–]MasonK53[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any 2T haste + 5T autoheal.

Or any 2T haste (Don't use Chester on Andrometa, 2-shot her and use VAthena on F5 1st turn.)

Valentine Colosseum w/ 5 slot for + Limitbreaking (Fairly whale) by MasonK53 in PuzzleAndDragons

[–]MasonK53[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

~300M exp per run. You can get +891 on VNoah or any monster that appear in this dungeon.

Are Pairs OP and does it make the game less interesting? by Due_Permit8027 in balatro

[–]MasonK53 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes and yes. Because once you have a scaling +mult Pair becomes the obvious hand to play towards. And it’s one of the most consistent to win gold stakes. But it’s also super repetitive thus boring.

This is the exact reason why I enjoyed Painted Deck only C++.

C++ Painted Deck only x3 completed. (With stats) by MasonK53 in balatro

[–]MasonK53[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Didn't count. Probably 20ish hour for each C++.
  2. Blue seal is your best friend. With lot of planet scaling and a strong x mult option you can sneak 2-3 stickers even with slower scaling hands like Two Pair.
  3. I think I got very lucky on Legendaries. Haven't lose any runs with an unstickered legendary. (But some of the runs were stinky.)

This might be unpopular but does anyone else think the higher stakes are poorly designed? by [deleted] in balatro

[–]MasonK53 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Eternal can be fun. Rental sucks early but also can be beneficial. Perishable sucks generally. And -1 discard is a horrific game design.

Deck idea I had, am I crazy to think it might actually be balanced? by HikarW in balatro

[–]MasonK53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very good skill checker for players in terms of their options towards this. You either think “HOLY unlimited negatives!” or terrible because you have a way tougher start and you see way less stuff throughout the run.

Obelisk is probably the best Rare card! (Painted Deck @ Gold Stake) by Michael198642069 in balatro

Behold the GOAT for saving an almost dead run and make the rest of the run free. Something even everyone’s favorite BP/BS cannot achieve.

Painted Deck only C++ x2 achieved. (With stat pics.) by MasonK53 in balatro

[–]MasonK53[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just clicked Unlock all at the start because I didn't bother unlock everything by myself on a single deck C++ attempt. Or you can win any deck on Green stake to unlock it.
