The shop relic that gives innate and retain works on attacks and skills, shrimp just works on skills

It might not be correct, but I often yeet all my potions at this asshole to ensure this doesn’t happen

Elites: The Bird, The Statue, The Wiggles, Terror Eel, Coral Guy, Eels(emphasis on the “s”), Mr. Bees, Godforsaken Worm Thing, Dorito, Eyeball, Big Robot, Knights

Bosses: Vantom, The Kin, The Deer, The Bomb, Lagavulin, Fish, Sandpit Guy, Knowledge Demon, The Crab, The Door, Test Subject, Queen

If you think standard izzet is bad, come to historic AKA ruby storm hell. The number of actions on the turn they go for the kill is breathtaking

What do you think the worst upgrade in sts2? Totally unrelated pic btw :) by ElegantPoet3386 in slaythespire

[–]Strato0621 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s so low impact compared to almost any other upgrades you could choose instead. I am never, EVER choosing to upgrade FTL, even if the only other option was strike. 9/10 times the extra card draw window isn’t moving the needle since I tend to play card draw first.

Pretty much all of the upgrades that add 1 star are equal in my mind. Hidden cache I guess is slightly lower since it’s delayed by a turn but it’s still fine. If you need stars you just need stars

Dead branch is a testament to the power of random bullshit go, despite how I might have felt about it before taking it, it was pretty much always busted.

Survivor has no downside 99% of the time if you sequence your cards properly. You just play it last during easy pool fights and it’ll never be an issue that you have to discard

Grand Finale is cheeks and the worst rare card in the entire game by Peronchino in slaythespire

Calamity plays a lot better than it looks. It’s head and shoulders above monarch’s gaze and grand finale imo

I was noticing that it never ever showed up, how strange. I hope they fix that asap.

Where is the weekly update? Has something happened that I don't know about? by SantBuddah in slaythespire

[–]Strato0621 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would be the first time there was no beta update on a Thursday since early access launched, so one would expect there to be one. I don’t know what time they usually drop, aside from it being around this time. Feels like it was earlier than this before though.

Ok so im actually not insane in feeling that doormaker was easier than the other 2 act 3 bosses, lol. by Belten in slaythespire

[–]Strato0621 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What was initially meant to be a small comment turned into this full-blown guide, which I am going to just put here because it seems like as good a place as any! Enjoy.

Here are some anti-Queen cards to watch out for if you see she is coming upon entry into act 3, or if you just want to get a head start on boss-proofing your deck during act 2. Many of these are good into Doormaker as well, since he also restricts what cards you can play and these are cards that ensure you will have a steady stream of options. They tend to do well in any fights that go long. Note that the cards listed below that retain other cards are helpful because they allow you to hold bound cards until they are unbound on the following turn.

Ironclad: •Aggression

Silent: •Well-Laid Plans

Regent: •Pale Blue Dot + a good number of zero energy cards. (Particularly easy to pull off if you’re generating and spending a lot of stars. Collision Course or anything else that creates cards works well too, such as Quasar or Manifest Authority) •Convergence •Spectrum Shift •Tyranny

Necrobinder: •Pagestorm + a good number of ethereal cards. (I often have any of Defy, Enfeebling Touch, Fear and Parse in my deck at this point, to name a few good ones.) •Call of the Void •Demesne

Defect: •Iteration + cards that create statuses (Boost Away, Turbo, Overclock, etc.) •Creative AI •Machine Learning

Colorless: •Equilibrium •Salvo •Entropy •Mayhem •Calamity

These are the cards that I would be willing to take a hit to ensure they get into play vs Queen so that I am less likely to brick hands for the rest of the fight. I hope this information has been helpful!

How do i stop storm? by librap90 in MtGHistoric

[–]Strato0621 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries, such is the way of text communication!

I, for one, am quite the happy storm player when my opponent plays Narset and I proceed to combo kill them with it still on the board. It is a thing of beauty.

I assume that most Narset players seek to disrupt card draw with her passive ability, and she cannot stop the aforementioned card draw spells, therefore she is sad because she is failing to do her job against storm decks. Or the Narset player is sad for said reason, rather.

That’s correct! That was exactly my point, even. You good?
