I invented a free, analog version of Slay the Spire
So first you throw a six sided die. If it lands on 1 or 2 you have to spend almost a FUCKING HOUR DOING JACKSHIT! WHO THE FUCK THOUGHT THAT HAVING A 33% CHANCE FOR A CHARACTER TO INSTANTLY LOSE THE RUN WAS GOOD GAME DESIGN?! AND YOU GET TO KNOW YOUR RUN IS OVER WHEN YOU HAVE COMPLETED 2/3 OF THE RUN! IS THE STRATEGY JUST TO INSANTLY CLICK ABANDON RUN AT THE START OF ACT 3?! SERIOUSLY, IF I LET MY 5 YEAR OLD COUSIN PLAY HE COULD PROPABLY BEAT THE TO OTHER BOSSES EASILY WITH MY INSANE 5 UPGRADED BLADE DANCES AND A FUCKTON OFF ACCURACIES! FUCK THIS GAME IM GOING TO TAKE UP KNITTJNG OR SOME SHIT!!!

Am I missing something?
How in the hell people beat this game at lvl 20? I best the game with every chatacter except the observer (I cant play well with her) the last time yesterday with the silent but I was super lucky. That at lvl 5 ascension so I don’t know maybe I’m really missing something

There is no game with a better learning curve than StS
I’m just so incredibly flabbergasted by how well this game is designed. Not making this post to brag, but just as an example - when I started playing the game I had plenty of trouble with beating the game with the Watcher. Just minutes ago I cleared A10 with the Watcher, with swapping at the start for the Runic Dome and a Dripper at the end of A1… Was very close to abandoning the run instantly at the start, but then it turned out that the game actually taught me how to play this.
Kudos to the creators of this game!

Looked at run history... first runs ever really have the weirdest decks or is it only me?
Prismatic Shard on the first ever run is kinda crazy... half my cards were off-class... i really tend to try doing seriously dumb decisions. Had a run 2 days ago on A10 with 4 times Clash and 4 times Sever Soul, a dark embrace, burning pact etc... just to force a clash run and proving clash is good... i died on floor 41 so nvm that.
Anyways... what do you think about my first ever deck?

The closest I ever came to breaking a heart
In 100 hours of gameplay, that's the closest I've come. I'm sad.17:30 UTC

Was a fun run with some interesting card/relic interplay.

I hadn't played the game in around 3 years, tried the mobile version today and won first try in a new save file, I got really lucky

It has taken me 2k+ hours across multiple years of gameplay to finally, FINALLY, have tough bandages and tingsha in the same run

Mod Recommendations?
I tried Packmaster recently (my first mod ever on StS) and while the mechanics are interesting and fun, I feel like I had every run solved by the beginning of Act 2.
Wondering if there are any mods that feel really balanced the way the original four (maybe not the watcher as much) do.

Violet Lotus is such a champ in my first A20 Heartbreaker run

Voting for the BEST card (Devotion v Wish)
Welcome to the card battle royale!
Every day I will be posting 2 cards from a bracket to face off each other and YOU decide which is the better card. Here's the spreadsheet bracket (unseeded and subject to rigging (future reordering) to invite more interesting comparisons)
Honestly I never expected Echo Form to knock Rushdown out on this sub, oops. I will attempt actual seeding within characters soon. I'm not a fan of the reason for it in the top comment but I'm not entirely sure what a good metric would be because relative strength wrt the character knocks down every Watcher card, absolute strength boosts most Watcher cards.
Day 5
Two cool Watcher rares, none of that garbage Lesson or Vault or Scrawl
a) Devotion (Watcher Rare Power) - 1 Cost - At the start of your turn, gain 2(3) Mantra.
b) Wish (Watcher Rare Skill) - 3 Cost - Choose one: Gain 6(8) Plated Armor, 3(4) Strength, or 25(30) Gold. Exhaust.
Top voted comment will be considered the winner. I like reading every comment people say about cards/their evaluations even if I don't reply, and polls don't seem to invite the same long form comments.
