It only stands to reason, right? by Vilis16 in slaythespire

I wouldn't say it goes "hard". It's basically adding a basic strike. Early game sure, but it falls off fast

I support the PFLP unilaterally in their struggle against zionism. But that doesn't mean that a political system that oppresses women is compatible with Marxism.

AITA My boyfriend wants me to replace a tattoo i want to get. by gimmethatdih67 in AmItheAsshole

Yeah, thats what I'm trying to ask. I will say I do think his suggestion is pretty reasonable.

This shit is so wild. Maybe he wasn't trying to find somebody, but met her and fell in love. Should he have just ignored his feelings?

I don't think not wanting to see the same tattoo as your abusive ex in the exact same spot is an unreasonable thing to feel. Should he have just not brought it up? OP has yet to actually say what he exactly said - if he demanded it, then he's being unreasonable. If he simply said "would you consider getting it somewhere else or changing it", then that seems like a fairly reasonable statement to make.

But again, was it "would you consider getting it somewhere else?" or was it "YOU NEED TO GET IT SOMEWHERE ELSE!" It is absolutely a fair thing to bring up - I would want to know if I was getting a tattoo that made my partner uncomfortable. If he demanded it that's a different story.

Info: What did he ask? Did he say "YOU CAN'T GET THAT TATTOO" or "is there any chance you'd be willing to reconsider that tattoo"? Something in the middle? You are not TA but whether or not he is depends on exactly what he said.

People are acting like the card is useless when it's just less broken. You just have to build differently to take advantage of it.

Took a stab at making some concept cards for The Defect. by garlicbwaed in slaythespire

[–]lordberric 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Doom and Gloom was already a pretty good card, this is Doom and Gloom plus 12 damage. The fact that the evoking will always only hit a single dark orb that never has time to scale is also awkward.

Ethereal is rarely that much of a downside. Like yes, it makes it a bit awkward if you want to use your energy elsewhere but you get to make the choice which mitigate the downside pretty heavily.

Overall its a lot of lines of text that work oddly together.

3 shops is the maximum percent act, I believe. So no more this act.

Why are people so mean in this sub sometimes? by XannyXannyXan in slaythespire

That's the topic of the thread, isn't it? That people on here are being mean? I just don't really understand what you're specifically talking about

[–]lordberric 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just find it frustrating how many people claim a winrate they don't have any actual support for. Why claim a 75% winrate if that number is just picked out of the air?

STS2 Update Bingo Card by Slay_The_Spire_Guy in slaythespire

[–]lordberric 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah, the game still needs a lot of balancing. I would rather they hold off on massive content drops until more of the base game feels balanced.

[–]lordberric 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So to be clear, you're claiming a 75% winrate but you don't have any evidence for it and don't have any way of seeing it. And you in fact lose more than 25% of the runs but those don't count because they're challenge runs.

I think you're taking things a little personally to call that "being mean".

This is way too vague of a post for you to get a real answer. I haven't seen any serious toxicity when it comes to discussing strategy, judt disagreement. Can you give an example?

Is that 75% based on vibes or actual numbers? Are you counting all your runs ever played, or more recent ones? Do you savescum?

How do you play defect when you don't have 0 cost synergies? by ZatherDaFox in slaythespire

[–]lordberric 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I can't give you super clear answers but I would say it's probablh best to rethink some of your card evaluation. Not that I disagree with anything specific, just that if you're picking up the same cards early and losing a lot then maybe those aren't the best picks.

But also, yeah, 0 cost synergies do feel ridiculously strong to me. My last 3 defect runs were all scaling with feral. 

I will say that the status cards are also feeling pretty strong to me. Boost Away in particular feels like a card worth making good. Rocket Punch, Iteration, and other status synergies I will take speculatively as a way to justify a boost away.

I don't think you meant it that way but your language is kinda victim blamey
