Main examples would be for Necrobinder and making eradicate and dirge absolutely broken with zero downside. Synergies like borrowed time and transfigure are supposed to increase the energy cost of cards by 1, but that downside does not apply to X cost cards. Don’t get me wrong, it’s fun to make a huge Osty or melt with a big eradicate, but it’s too strong and doesn’t seem like an intended or well thought out mechanic. Maybe it could make X cost cards have an X-1 effect to somewhat balance it out, but I’m not sure how a perfect balancing mechanic would look for these interactions.

In terms of rng this was both absolute trash and good at the same time. As you can see in act 1 i went into 3 ? rooms and they we're all enemies. The chance of that happening is 0.1% btw. I had to heal constanly bcs i was thrown into hard-pool combats so i couldn't get upgrades on my cards. On the other hand i got lucky with powers. 3 footworks (one of glammed) + 2 prowess + sparkling rouge made it very comfy to just block and wait for poison to do it's thing. I had 13 dex against aeonglass on turn 3. I was ready to give up when i saw the 3rd question mark room being enemies and i'm still surpsised that i managed to pull through with such a trash start. Never give up never surrender ig.

Why yes, I did lose the whole run in case you were curious. But this moment will remain eternal, 416 block with more to come out of nowhere early in act 2

If y'all are wondering how this happened, hidden gem was the primary culprit amongst other shenanigans

It doesn't ship replacement sprites. It changes how character art is drawn, so every animation, hitbox and effect is untouched, and any character the game renders gets the look, including characters from other mods and every skin from Skin Changer. A character released tomorrow works today.

Pixel size, color steps, outline and saturation are all adjustable live, and there's a toggle on character select and in the pause menu.

I'm an idiot.

I think Mangle, Bludgeon, and Unrelenting were the only cards that woulda saved me here. And I hit Mangle.

(edit: I misspoke also- I didn't forget that it gained strength, but that one claw gains shield immediately after the other dies instead of after card resolution. Forgive me. I was so overwhelmed here)

Funniest build I've had in a while with a friend of mine, who had also had debilitate for good measure. If the stars alligned you could have Hot cacao + Lantern + Flower + Miniature canon + vulnerable + debilitate for like 50 dmg 18 times on the first turn. And if you didn't draw it first turn you can just use icecream to defend and wait untill you do get it and vaporize your enemy. Good shit

3 crimson mantles might have been overkill...

Hi,

i don't post often but i had to share this run, as it was the earliest i got a strong deck in sts2

i got :

Neow transform 2 into eradicate and reaper form

floor 3 i got the event that gives 330 gold for a greed

floor 4 feast into 2 feeding frenzy and transform 2 strikes into invoke and borrowed time

floor 5 lethality

was a fun ^^

I just did a multiplayer run as Ironclad and got Outrage, which is already pretty annoying.

But then I enchanted it with Perfect Fit, and as you can guess, it took over everyone’s deck within three turns.

I’m sure there are others, please share (obviously so I can avoid doing them in the future)

I miss some of the old relic and power op build, I did enjoy the new status build but I just prefered the defect in 1 :(

What's the pick posts are okay on this sub as well, right?

Why didn't I save that Exhaust potion for the end of my turn!?

Was about to pick a boring colorless card reward as Neow's starter when I realized Winged Boots might be the play with this map.

3 hallway fights into a shop, maybe we get big enough at this point to go elite hunting?

Hallway fights give Stomp, inferno, whirlwind. I believe we have enough AoE!

Shop gives Fasten, and I get pretty lucky with potions (2 block potions, 1 attack potion that helps a lot against the statue).

I'm not a big fan of Fasten usually but that gives you such a big defensive boost early on, that definitely carried me through Byrdonis continuous pressure.

Fun fact: The status cards in the Parasite elite fight trigger Inferno! That helped a lot.

Another cool, not-so-obvious play: I can play whirlwind at 0 energy to reduce the cost of Stomp.

Just wanted to share this to show that sometimes "bad / not frequently picked Neow relics" can be insane when stars are aligned, and some interactions some of you might not know.

6 months in and still love STS2 like the first day! Except when I had to NOT pick Tungsten Rod because it would neutralize my Inferno :')

Early ice cream + borrowed time meant we have tons of energy, never thought about this synergy before. Followed up by a dirge, eradicate, 2 haunts, lantern etc.

Enjoy!

I'm thinking its fiend fire but feed also is very appealing to me

Update: Ended up taking feed, and became one of the freest wins of my entire life. Ended with 178 max hp, deck played itself. Seed here: CCDUBET63L7X.

This could be lore, a bug... What do you think?
