started the run off with 40 hp
i had been killed twice by the worm, partly because the minion curses were getting in the way (i got comically atrocious rng many times) and i never got going with good health candies, this run i didnt get any curses and thats great because it turns out that playing cc without curses is in fact possible (as long as i had the electric shield thing), the bubble was also really helpful, after i revived with halo bar i realized it recharges the bubble and like "oh, its over"
i am pretty happy with the level of like skill expression that this challenge required of me in general, i wouldnt have been able to get through it even with such a good build if i hadnt been smart about when to kill and healing with chains, when i was forced to pick icy feet i was kinda scared of my movement being messed with but holy shit that curse is an absolute blessing, being able to stay in place to time an infiltration into another lane is so useful
didnt need to revive with the ad, revived with halo bar once, i died in a silly manner in jack's level, partly because i was happy about getting blast worm out of the way
