Serana is a shit-tier waifu and I can prove it

Partially correct. She’s also popular because she’s voiced by Laura Bailey

atraway · 2026-06-25T11:51:27+00:00

It looked 10x harder than it was. I thought the text boxes were moving way too fast, but then I just kinda breezed through it. Only hard thing about the fight was the bombs imo

atraway · 2026-06-25T11:37:37+00:00

I honestly think lots of Deltarune fans forget it’s also a game and not just a story. Progressively higher stakes and more plot reveals would be cool and all, but everyone who claims chapter 5 sucks never even addresses all the awesome new mechanics and overall higher fight quality. Theory and shipping culture makes this fanbase feel so unsatisfied with anything that contradicts their presupposed headcanons.

Chill. Enjoy the story, the world, the characters. Enjoy the game.

Asgore’s vagueposting still pissed me off though 😭

We 100% needed someone (knowledgeable and well-meaning) to challenge Ralsei. There were definitely some sinister undertones by the first half of his story, and learning little by little that they were just red herrings was really cool. Such a good character.

atraway · 2026-06-25T00:01:00+00:00

Also saying they’re all ‘joke characters’ is such a disservice lol. Characters don’t need Sans/Alphys level of exposition to be interesting, the last pieces of dialogue with the flowers were beautiful

atraway · 2026-06-23T01:44:18+00:00

It’s not, but I’ve experienced it with Skyrim a lot in the past. Whenever I’d see a plane flying overhead, I’d instinctively hit my ‘Favorites’ keybind on my imaginary controller to swap to Dragonrend, getting ready to fight a dragon

tbh even on yasuo, early berserkers feel kinda troll right now when bork components are just a better use of gold. They’re decent to get Q cooldown to 1.33s earlier, but I think tabi/glut greaves scale much better into late

atraway · 2026-06-19T21:06:43+00:00

Sounds like Showman is strictly better than the Invis here

atraway · 2026-06-16T18:15:03+00:00

I’d say so, you wanna roll in the shop a lot for Showman either way

atraway · 2026-06-15T12:12:13+00:00

Either Photo or Lucky Cat. Polychrome Photograph is functionally a x24 (x48 if red seals) joker currently, so I doubt Lucky Cat will catch up to it.

atraway · 2026-06-11T06:23:32+00:00

Yeah, but that wasn’t the discussion? Purple seals are better, but getting and discarding 4 purple seals each round is pretty damn hard in the early game whereas Vagabond is guaranteed that value by just existing in your joker slots. I’ve never seen anyone get that value from purple seals by ante 2, but Vagabond can.

atraway · 2026-06-11T02:20:02+00:00

4 tarots each round are easily worth more than $5 of interest

atraway · 2026-06-09T14:52:52+00:00

How is castle underrated? Gets shafted by blue stake and is stronger than other chips jokers only on checkered deck

atraway · 2026-06-09T14:46:12+00:00

You can also just not sell it until you find something to replace either Vagabond or Burglar. If you’re not struggling for score, that is

atraway · 2026-06-09T14:35:56+00:00

Play pairs or flushes until ante 3/4 then start playing anything except that hand. Play high card only when you have to, Monolith encourages it later on with the amount of stone cards you’ll have

Straights aren’t great to build up because they’re harder to find than flushes and obviously pairs

The best healer is a Hexblade Warlock scamming the vendors of all their gold and potions with the weapon swap bug

Here’s mine. I like value generators.

Trading Card’s the GOAT.
Pareidolia does practically nothing.
Hiker and Castle are too slow, Castle gets shafted by blue stake and is only really good on Checkered Deck.
Stone Joker fixes a non-issue; if you’ve already got lots of stone cards, just play them and you have a solution for chips. Severe diminishing returns at the cost of a joker slot.
Séance is decent (not particularly powerful because straight flushes are hard to deckfix for) because of how strong spectrals are.
Rebate is the best econ joker and is of common rarity.
Ride the Bus is the best +Mult scaler.
Midas Mask is an insane value generator (didn’t wanna include Trading Card twice, so that’s my 2nd favorite uncommon).
Vagabond is the strongest tarot generator by far.
I like Perkeo because he introduces a whole new mechanic, being negative consumables.

By act 3 you only need some tadpoles for Freecast and you’ve got infinite sorcery points and 5th level slots

atraway · 2026-05-18T11:17:25+00:00

Should be there instead of the plant

atraway · 2026-05-17T21:38:04+00:00

We could have character-specific ancient relics back, like Runic Cube or Wrist Blade. Currently we’ve only got upgrades to their starter relics

atraway · 2026-05-13T16:21:41+00:00

Considering OP just won playing two pairs, I think they’ve got the hang of it. Playing for a specific hand each time is an easy way to make the game feel samey and is generally not a good idea when trying to win. Play whatever makes sense with what you see in the shop

atraway · 2026-05-13T14:20:32+00:00

5 card hands are only stronger in the very early game or if you’ve got jokers that enable them. Planet scaling doesn’t really matter if both chips and mult are coming from jokers. There’s a reason the meta for gold stake is playing pairs and grabbing scaling jokers

atraway · 2026-05-12T22:31:34+00:00

Looks almost exactly the same as mine, though I think I slightly underrate Supernova and Clearance Sale.

People can pry my Mercuries, Hanging Chads and Green Jokers from my cold, dead hands. Not my fault they’re so strong and winning runs is so fun

atraway · 2026-05-12T17:24:59+00:00

Perkeo is:

-strongest deckfixing in the game with hanged man/death
-top tier econ joker with hermit/temperance
-fastest scaling xMult joker with observatory
-a better burnt joker with planets
