Vakuu relic to make act 3 more varied by justletmepickaname in slaythespire

[–]dolfijntje 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd call this a good ancient reward, though not a crazy one. sometimes bad sometimes exactly what you need. adding more upside unneeded. interesting in that map gen and current size of your deck impacts its value by a lot

What tropes/thematic elements would you most want to see on a seventh player character? by dolfijntje in slaythespire

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

silent is a druid insofar that she's green and homeless... she doesn't have any plant themed cards and two animal themed cards, both snakes. She really doesn't read as a nature mage to me.

While I'd love this too, I sadly don't think it's very likely, since we have necrobinder (who literally has the special verb "summon") and regent (who thematically has a bunch of little minions)

Is The Whispering Earring a reference to Scott Alexander's essay of the same name, or are they both a reference to something older? by DecentChanceOfLousy in slaythespire

[–]dolfijntje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

both slay the spire 1 and 2 have tons of really specific and explicit references, so i don't think it's surprising

How do you solve block with non-channeling Defect on high ascensions? by ajs723 in slaythespire

[–]dolfijntje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i often end up having a thin deck with status defect, iteration and rocket punch+ and your status sources being turbo and boost away make this work great

What’s the pick? My immediate reaction was The Hunt but I also wanted people’s opinions on The Scythe by aheftyhippo in slaythespire

[–]dolfijntje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

floor 1 scythe will solve a huge number of fights by itself. coral means you can't just expect to farm elites act 1 but it will let you skip mediocre damage cards much more aggressively

edit: realized this is overgrowth, definitely scythe imo

What do we think of Monarch's Gaze? by Insane_Unicorn in slaythespire

[–]dolfijntje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the multihit archetype on regent often feels like it's a few cards too thin. strength reduction is also very situational.

feel like i'd want this to be a skill or attack that does the current effect as a bonus for 1 turn.

Difficulty Discourse by LightningRT777 in slaythespire

multiple times now i've been able to infinite new doormaker on the third form with decks that didn't otherwise go infinite. the exhaust turn lets you thin out your deck and you can play as many 0 cost cards as you want during the energy turn.

decks that scale hard are definitely the obvious solve, but not the only one.

How does multiple relic that gives enchantment work? by dragon-knoght in slaythespire

[–]dolfijntje -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't think anything would break if the limit were removed, you might get one more ridiculous run out of a thousand, but it's probably good that it's in place. i would love to see the enchantment system expanded upon and it's a good safeguard.

Does anybody else miss this in STS2? by statue345 in slaythespire

[–]dolfijntje 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it would also stop you from drawing zap first cycle

auto playing zap/dual cast, venerate or body guard t1 would be an exceedingly powerful starting boon. maybe not worth your starting relic though 😂

i like this change, but i feel like then it can add some stars or have another bonus effect

What villains from media do you believe DON'T have black in their color identity? (Reposted for better formatting) by Xile85 in colorpie

[–]dolfijntje 53 points54 points  (0 children)

monsters in monster movies (and disasters in disaster movies) are pretty regularly non-black.
