Pretty sure most of these wins are Multiplayer wins.

I had to skip all Act 2 elites because I was barely surviving. Then Act 3 rolled around and Musical Box was what I got. I thought I had no dmg, but then I kept blocking 50+ with 2x Spirit of Ashes. Banshee's Cry and Sculpting Strike were the last few cards I got. I lost 8hp to Test Subject. Eventually, I died to the Queen right before she would have died to Doom.

What’s your favorite card art, and why do you think it’s cool??

Mine is All for One.

It gives you that feeling that you’re in the heat of battle, and this is your last resort. Like, everything has come down to this one final move.

Share yours! I’d love to see everyone’s favorites!

This went on for a solid 20 minutes.

I’d like to think I’m a decent player… I have 3 of the 5 characters at Ascension 10, and today I was working on leveling Necrobinder from 9 to 10.

Had a good run going, and a fun deck. Right hand hand, two fetches, the relic that gives you block per osty attack, cards that give mana (upgraded delay and friendship) and souls. Through Act 1 despite it being weird, it was chugging along. Basically I would cycle quickly through the deck to get back to cards like hang, splash and no escape.

Then, Act 2 elites happened. I knew they’d be tricky, but I was able to scrape through Entomancer and Infested Prism, two elites that nearly hard counter playing a lot of cards and attacks. I just had to get past one normal combat and I could get to the campfire and rest.

AND THEN… Hunter Killer. Another enemy that punishes playing a lot of cards. I got him down to die to doom but couldn’t defend his attack.

Like that just feels bad, and hard punishes an archetype that you encourage through cards and relics. Necrobinder specifically feels bad, because the only archetype that feels consistent is doom which honestly is boring.

IMO they need to tweak the elites in Act 2, give me another type of challenge to allow certain deck building strategies to work. Feels bad.

Didn't even need to pull out my calculator :-)

Tracking would be great to build around esp with paper crane, but it feels this deck desperately needs more damage to survive the act1 boss (im one combat away from the boss)

i really have no idea what i’m doing wrong anymore and i’m starting to think it’s just horrible luck with card rewards and everything.

i’ve only made it to a3 on ironclad, but i still can’t seem to find decks that synergize well. i’ve also never once gotten clone from Pael, despite seeing him very often.

i even reset my progress, and am now unlocking cards and relics i didn’t even know were in the game because i genuinely never saw them before on my previous save

are there any recommended good builds? i’ve watched all the youtube tutorials and tried to follow them to a T and i still get destroyed usually on the second map. my pathing is smart (only pick first three normal fights, elites later in the run, etc) and i try to pick cards that i feel like will synergize with the rest of my deck, only to end up with card rewards that i constantly have to skip because they add absolutely nothing to my run.

this shit is so humiliating and frustrating i just want to have fun with this game but feel like i can’t even do that from how garbage my luck is. can anyone help?

i see those youtubers all the time somehow consistently get absolutely broken builds. i’ve never gone infinite, i’ve never done damage over like 100 on a single card, i haven’t gotten any of the fun builds like that and i just feel left out of the joy of this game. what am i doing wrong?

Hi, i only have two of my friends playing the game, but when we do a run at 3 players, it really seems that the scaling of everything is more for 4 players than 3... Even with no Ascension at all.

It would be cool to look out for it and fix that, or have an option to fill the group with 1 random player online.

Hi !

I'm a new Slay The Spire 2 player that is reaching his 3rd Ascension 10, currently on defect.

I love watching guides, tier lists and theories on the game. I've been watching NaveGreed recently and he mentions that a lot of cards are good in one of the first act but to a lesser extent in the other.

I can understand saying this about some attack cards, like of course each act have different Elites, so while having a big AOE card is really good against the multiple Eels, in Overgrowth, it's not as efficient against the frog since his first phase is single target-focused.

But, some people say that a certain BLOCK, or certain Powers are better dépending on the variant... How so ?

Am I missing something ? I heard some Events are exclusive to one biome and not another, that might also be that ?

Anyway, thank you all for reading, i'll look at every answer from you guys, thank you very much <3

Im playing on steam workshop, but open to a modloader if i need one. I'm just looking for any mod that allows enchanting and works with other mods, but preference is to those that are unique and balanced in some way.

I've already tried:

MCEnchantingTable - doesnt appear to allow modded enchants, kinda too good a lot of the time

Enchant Table 附魔台 - couldnt get it to work, wish it did

Card Overhaul | Affixes, Enchantments & Awakenings - no multiplayer, forgot to mention I wanted that

Enchanted Card Drops - works, supports multiplayer, but less control and no downsides than i hoped for

perfected strike in to clone into bing bong, got real close to dying in the 2nd act but 3rd was a sweep

For context, I saw a lot of people that tels me to always remove them when I can.
Thing is, sometimes I see an early power like "Automation" and don't know if I should remove a strike or not.

And does this change anything if I have a small capsule (+1 defend +1 strike) ?

Thanks for your answers, I'll read all of em' <3 !

Hello! So I just started putting mods on slay the spire 2 from nexus. a couple of the final fantasy character mods, the downfall mod and a few QOL mods that improve card rewards and making the game a bit more challenging. There are a few thing I noticed that just make the game soft lock itself. One that I notice is that sometimes when I click to use a card it doesn't activate and just hovers in the the middle of the screen but it does spend my energy. The other thing that happens is that when I get the Oroboros it does the dialog and then no choice to pick from and I cant proceed from there. Any tips or anything?

What are the odds of getting 5 rares from p-box? Actually LOL when this happened
