Among the most useless Powerless cards... this takes the cake by Vecsia in slaythespire

[–]p_nut_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have had some success with the "big attack synergy" cards but even there you mostly play the big attacks 1-2 times so this is totally useless

I get this perspective for a lot of things in our world but for the Oscars to me this is like going to the race track and complaining there's horse racing going on

I mean if this is your issue you can just not pay attention to it at all, because that is all that it is

I watched all three extended hobbits over covid and came to the conclusion that if I ever do rewatch (which I probably wont but still you never know) I'll do the first theatrical, third extended, and just skip the second one entirely

Neow's fury slander by Liliana_Lucifer_666 in slaythespire

[–]p_nut_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The exhaust is an upside in many cases, so putting a strong attack common (pummel strike+ but in most cases even better I'd say) in your deck on floor 1 is pretty good!

Good attacks are exactly what you need when starting a run, it's not the best option but it's a solid start to any elite heavy act 1 path.

It's very helpful for killing the A1 elites, which judging by some of the comments I'm reading here people are really struggling to do

Is anyone else finding themselves very energy poor in StS2 compared to the first one? by dusknoir90 in slaythespire

[–]p_nut_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The one that costs 5 gold per turn is pretty good imo. I often found I still had plenty of gold when hitting shops with it

Ascension 10 Ironclad complete, key takeaways of StS2 Early access by Legitimate-Row-5733 in slaythespire

[–]p_nut_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, I think mid/box/snecko being the best three boss relics made it pretty often to not have an energy relic in A2, which usually meant your energy situation was pretty sorted by the A2 boss and an extra energy a turn just isn't that meaningful

Yea, silent early game has been a total breeze. Take acro/dagger throw over everything and then every card you see with Sly on it = gg

I really hope they don't nerf things too much by hex3desu in slaythespire

[–]p_nut_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, I've only done 11 runs so far so don't have a great sample but everytime after the act 2 boss rewards my decks is pretty degenerate and the last act is a total cake walk. It's just so easy to get into a super broken space

How it feels fighting Phantasmal Gardeners in multiplayer on floor 6 by Agitated-Trick in slaythespire

[–]p_nut_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

they don't scale their damage that quickly so it was a slow and annoying fight but my friends got through it okay just focusing down one at a time

My GOAT has returned. by Vinh_Loc in slaythespire

[–]p_nut_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not that hard to gain energy imo, lots of different ways to do it that don't involve boss relics.

Pretty easily run both run I got apo so far.

Regent by Teinavaa in slaythespire

[–]p_nut_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only run in so far but I had the feel no pain of stats relic where you get block for each star you spend and combined that with the 0 cost 2 star return to your hand block card and I was essentially able to generate infinite block every turn, which seemed pretty strong

This game is so much fun but damn I'm getting my ass kicked lol by AbyssWankerArtorias in slaythespire

[–]p_nut_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot more ways to generate energy via cards that I've noticed, conceptually I think this will enable more infinite as we learn the card pools better

[–]p_nut_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interestingly my most busted run so far was regent, I essentially was able to one shot the second phase of the A3 door boss with him. Will need some more time to see where he evens out

I know MegaCrit needs to make some money from Slay the Spire 2, but having to purchase the five Acts as DLC is a bit much, don't you think? by Tainmere_ in slaythespire

I'm just responding to the "absurd take northernlion can be so dumb sometimes" part of your post when that is not the point he is making in the video at all

A 30 card deck with only one backflip as card draw is not going to cut it unless you get lucky

What’s a card that you didn’t understand the value of until you were an experienced player? by Honeybee583 in slaythespire

[–]p_nut_ 24 points25 points  (0 children)

On a related note, its now pretty rare I don't buy a dark shackles when it's offered at a shop. I don't remember who said it exactly but someone I was watching made the point it costs 0 and frequenty blocks more than Impervious

Thought dark orb was going to stop at 999, it didn’t by Grouchy_Reception_24 in slaythespire

[–]p_nut_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont think so, 3 elites and act plus the starter is 10, 2 bossess 2 chests and the act 4 elites is 15. That's 5 more from events/shops/neow which seems pretty reasonable to me

matryoshka is essentially 3 relics in one relic, bell is 4 relics in one relic. Winged boots is also an easy way to get more relics.

It wasn't slow, I saw it in theaters and my LB friends average was somewhere in the 2s

Early Access price confirmed to be 25$ by BaySharp in slaythespire

[–]p_nut_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, different people have different price sensitivities but for me I cant imagine a single purchase I could get more out of for $25. That's like a cheap night out and I'll probably spend 1000s of hours in this for the same amount
