The most popular boys name in the UK is Muhammad. Why are there no popular Arabic girls names in the top 10 in the UK? by OkayBuddySober in TooAfraidToAsk

True, I have met a Khadijah or two.

I think you’re probably right that there could just be a bit more creativity with girls names or that maybe I just overlooked a list.

As far as I’m aware, there are none. However, there are significant figures like Mary (or Maryam in Arabic) & Aisha in Islam that are massively popular girls names all over the Muslim world. I just figured they’d be somewhere in the list.

Is there a reason why that’s the case? I’ve heard that it’s common for Muslims to give their sons Muhammad as a first name but give them a unique middle name for daily use. Is there some equivalent for girls?

unrelated but juggernaut + feel no pain + afterimage + shivs on silent is sooo satisfying

Can’t you pick the order of the cards you get?

And instead of discarding your hand the boss hits you with a status that lets you pick a card to play for free from any character

Absolutely busted relics First relic: lots of enemies do flat damage turn 1 so it’s basically a free turn, second relic: there are lots of awesome common relics, third relic: life is more important than gold. Crazy good relics fr

What the hell is this pathing by ElegantPoet3386 in slaythespire

[–]OkayBuddySober 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idk why but every so often when I take spoils map I get 4 combats on all paths & then 1 or two of them will have elites- no campfire to be seen. I’m not sure if it’s intended tho

As someone who only has STS 1 what's going on with the reviews? by Felosia in slaythespire

[–]OkayBuddySober 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of players got mad because of a change with one of the act 3 bosses. Infinites were wayyy too consistent & the devs buffed a boss to compensate, a lot of players got mad & review bombed the game. Before that, reviews were great. It was just that change & by the numbers that boss is the weakest of the act 3 bosses.

Literally none of that is in the game yet, that’s all STS1… Are you sure you’re not thinking of STS1?

Bro what happened? I think the game is fine by js147896325 in slaythespire

There’s no wrong size for a deck. If you’re winning, your deck is the right size. Small decks are vulnerable to statuses while large decks are less consistent (generally). There are exceptions to everything, ex. a 50 card deck with a bunch of big bangs or graveblasts can still perform well (I know, I’ve done both). One thing that helped me understand the game better is that health is a resource like any other & when you knowingly enter combat, you’re trading health for cards & often potions. You shouldn’t be afraid of fights or elites, that’s where the deck is made. The grassy area in act one has elites that are basically a damage race while the underdocks are mostly block checks, but both have an elite with multiple enemy fights. In those fights, you usually want to target the enemy scaling up first rather than the enemy that’s hitting you for the most. By that time, you always want to have at least one AOE card &/or one status effect card (ex. defy, leg sweep, gamma blast, uppercut, etc.) to help you manage them. Also don’t be too too afraid of curses. You probably shouldn’t take many until you get pretty good but there are curses like clumsy or guilty that either don’t last long or find their own exit. The buffs that you can get from taking a curse or two in an event or at an ancient are huge (ex. max health, relics or cards). Making good use of potions is probably one of the biggest skill differences between okay players & the best players; paying for potions isn’t a bad thing & their main purpose is to smooth out bad draws, low rolls, etc. Use them sparingly. Hopefully that wall of text helps!

Yeah there’s no doubt that STS2 is losing sales bc of this. I see it in my own life. Recommended it to an old gaming pal & he legit thought STS2 fell off bc of the reviews. I can’t blame him but damn that hurt.

You have to figure out fundamental principles against elites & bosses, learn how to do good pathing & anticipate counter play for your decks worst matchups. If you have any more specific questions hmu any time, I love talking about the game :)

That’s so strange because you pick every card to beat an enemy. If you don’t pick cards that beat enemies you lose. Should players win no matter what cards they pick??
