"I simply must go last to execute the perfect turn" "GUYS STOP ATTACKING I CAN DOUBLE YOUR DAMAGE WITH THIS CARD I'M NOT PLAYING BECAUSE I'M WAITING FOR THE PERFECT TURN"
1:18:29 NL pretending he doesn't have lethal damage just to keep his retain card for later. Then he uses it and lies he drew it from Gremlin horn. What sick mind games is he playing with his friends?
I WAS LOSING IT BY THE END like did he forget what forge was at some point cuz he just stopped playing forge cards then was surprised when sovereign was like, 13 x2 😭 HE PLAYED A STRIKE OVER a forge 6 gain energy next turn WHY
The constant baiting by saying "I can DEFINITELY kill that one next/this turn" then immediately going "I actually don't have the energy" is killing me.😂
1:18:23 "Anyone got 2 damage?" "I'm afraid not" *suspiciously 7 damaged shaped "Beat into Shape+" in hand* 1:18:42 "Did you just attack?!?" "I drew it off of the Gremlin Horn" :tf:
1:37:00 Watching him play the reagent this run made me feel insane. He knows how strong the Sovereign Blade is but just never wants to play forge cards. Kept using GUARDS and exhausting his forge cards. Kept replacing his forge cards. Then in this part he upgraded GAURDS instead of literally anything else and then he got rid of a huge forge card… his friends carried this run hard
I came here to say the same thing. Dude has a great forge run with sovereign blade doing double damage for a turn and attacking twice but absolutely refuses to play any forge cards. Whenever he would play guards and transformed his forge cards I wanted to scream 😂
Damn NL trolling the team. Any given fight ‘anyone got damage?’ NL while playing the card that trades cards for minion block l, and trading out attack cards, when no enemy attacking : “I don’t have any attacks” Also NL with attacks in hand : “this is a block turn for me” 🤣 Also also NL with no enemy attacking: plays 3 defends instead of forging 3 times.
Watching NL grab a second Refine Blade instead of a Cosmic Indifference for a Forge build hurt my soul. Because the latter lets you play SB then put it right back into your hand next turn instead of redrawing, it more or less serves the same purpose as summon forth but as a next turn option. but at least he got one later.
This is great. I tried watching a different co-op video and they were completely determined to not play it co-op they just wanted to go on their own. They were making fun of one of the guys for wanting to use bash before the others attacked.
The type of coop where it's easy for everyone to default to single player mindset and to just click buttons. It will make the game way harder due to all the innefficiencies- killing enemies after people have put up block for their attacks, attacking before vulnerable etc. It's great how willing this group is to communicate to eachother, even stuff you wouldn't think matters.
@itsssfury I love NL, I love STS, I love STS2. Watching this man play any other game I get slightly perturbed when he makes a questionable choice. But this video broke me.. my jaw lay at my feet.
can anyone explain why he would gambling chip away his whole hand every time with seemingly no rhyme or reason to what he was looking for? he just always threw everything away. am i missing something?
[his 3 friends do 1,000 damage over 3 turns while NL does nothing] "Guys, watch this, I'm about to do like 100 damage. Actually I need one more turn I'm out of energy."
Bro this is probably the best co-op ever implemented in a card game like this. Im impressed! Seriously. The fact theres multiplayer only cards and hopefully relics! If they keep improving it this game is going to the moon!
They should add proximity chat, so NL can barely hear malf in the back
Yeah that giant headrest for his chair blocks all the sound
Specifically for that reason and no other.
finally I can watch my friends choose from 3 options
A run where all 4 of them play the silent and nobody talks the entire time
goated
watching nl with no commentary would feel so weird
me when the co-op experience provided by the video game is sublime
He plays multiplayer StS like he plays CS, just waiting in the back while his friends peek
The lion does not entry frag.
Imagine a Sovereign who fights his own battles
Wouldn't that be a sight to see?
Yall need to rewatch this while watching the perspective of the other three to see who’s lying to keep themselves alive lol. Peak shit there.
waiter? a million gazillion episodes of these four fine gentlemen playing co-op Slay the Spire II please!
seconded
I’ll have what he’s having!
slay the spire with my homies, then watching unc slay his spire with his homies. what a time to be alive
I need homies who game
You watch unc doing what?!
its almost as if you slay the spire, and he slays the spire too....
Peak spire
the devs are trying to kill me with dopamine. This is too good
Watching Nl hold up the whole group like he doesn't have 2000 hours in the first game. Welcome back
"I simply must go last to execute the perfect turn"
"GUYS STOP ATTACKING I CAN DOUBLE YOUR DAMAGE WITH THIS CARD I'M NOT PLAYING BECAUSE I'M WAITING FOR THE PERFECT TURN"
Holding a knockdown while his team uses all their attacks while he watches is infuriating.
for 30dmg on avg while malf deals like 300 on avg. each turn
Who got you the 2000 hours?
Make haste
Crazy that they put multiplayer in an early access deck builder…and totally nailed it.
1:18:29 NL pretending he doesn't have lethal damage just to keep his retain card for later. Then he uses it and lies he drew it from Gremlin horn. What sick mind games is he playing with his friends?
scamline changed him...
he didnt have lethal tho bc the enemy cam only take 9 damage per hit max
@lmcdms The enemy that needed to die only had 2 health tho.
7 00 6
1:18:40 He lied as naturally as he breathed.
bald faced lie
@octave38+2
@octave38 in the west so wildly wild they call him.. The Baldest Bald. It's high noon
the insistence on discarding or transforming the cards that make sovereign blade stronger is sending me
I WAS LOSING IT BY THE END like did he forget what forge was at some point cuz he just stopped playing forge cards then was surprised when sovereign was like, 13 x2 😭 HE PLAYED A STRIKE OVER a forge 6 gain energy next turn WHY
making his deck that does nothing do even less. amazing stuff.
That's heart breaking. I'm only 40 minutes in and I was hoping he would see the value of reading the cards.
You have to understand 90% of his brain power is used to hold back his ego after all the +2s he gets from his extensive media knowledge.
NL: sits there for 2 min, playing no cards.
Everyone else: plays their turn
NL (2 minutes later): WAIT! DON'T ATTACK!
I experienced physical pain at 2:03:11
The sts 2 multiplayer is actually AMAZINGLY designed it's UNBELIEVABLE oh my GOD
the "FRAIL" AWOLnation reference was not lost on me even if it was lost on the group
i like to think they all heard it but they hate him and chose to ignore it. if librarian was there he would have laughed.
The constant baiting by saying "I can DEFINITELY kill that one next/this turn" then immediately going "I actually don't have the energy" is killing me.😂
1:18:23
"Anyone got 2 damage?"
"I'm afraid not"
*suspiciously 7 damaged shaped "Beat into Shape+" in hand*
1:18:42
"Did you just attack?!?"
"I drew it off of the Gremlin Horn"
:tf:
Dude I was losing it at this part
With the Innate and Retain seal as well… couldn’t be horn
@nevergold8838 started with the "skip 2 cards for relic" skipping void form as well, tf
This was my favorite part lmao
the scamline mind virus
"There is a rat that never runs out"
"I don't need to smith"
You think I don't see what you're doing?
stunseed bait goes crazy
1:18:30 "i drew it off gremlin horn" he says... like a liar
1:18:54 the face of a man who never lies
"I drew it off of the Gremlin Horn" he says after playing the Innate card.
Yelling NO at my phone every time NL makes a choice I personally wouldnt have made
He just keeps misplaying and it's painful to watch.
1:37:00 Watching him play the reagent this run made me feel insane. He knows how strong the Sovereign Blade is but just never wants to play forge cards.

this vid is making me a Type A Commenter for this exact reason i stg
I came here to say the same thing. Dude has a great forge run with sovereign blade doing double damage for a turn and attacking twice but absolutely refuses to play any forge cards. Whenever he would play guards and transformed his forge cards I wanted to scream 😂
NL sitting on knockdown while everyone else is playing the game is so funny
9:11 me when I have a crush on the leader singer of a band
1:46:44 pov you’re r2d2 and you just escaped a precarious position
vicariously playing co-op
I used to play risk of rain because of your videos (I’m on console so that’s why I stopped…)
I love you man, you're the coolest risk to rain
she werner on my herzog til I die in the rainforest, cold and alone
God I want a billion episodes of this, perfect banter group game
Damn NL trolling the team. Any given fight ‘anyone got damage?’
NL while playing the card that trades cards for minion block l, and trading out attack cards, when no enemy attacking : “I don’t have any attacks”
Also NL with attacks in hand : “this is a block turn for me” 🤣
Also also NL with no enemy attacking: plays 3 defends instead of forging 3 times.
I swear he was playing well at the start and then when I kept watching the next day he just started making the most confusing decisions possible
I wish I had friends with attention spans longer than a call of duty round to play this with
1:18:44 NL had the card in his hand before Gremlin Horn triggered, read the card, and then told Apollo that he drew it after. Classic gaslighting.
I love how much they legit are all liking the new changes/gameplay. Wholesome friendos moment
The Cooler Mario Party
1:01:23 evil overlord lazily looking over at his dancing imp minion
1:18:38 unc caught telling a tall tale
me when the multiplayer co-op experience comes out sizzlin’
If Solo is Career Suicide
Is Co-Op Career Homicide???
co-op career kool-aid drinking
Chiblee if he were a snake:
IM SHEDDIN, SHEDDIN OOOOO
Thank you, Official Northernlion (no chat)
the coop is so absurdly peak
The lack of reaction to the lava chicken parody is insane, that was bars milord
here before Cocaine 2
56:18 Bro this is trapinch +2
Sacrificing void form with a mandatory 3 cost is why nl's my favorite streamer
momma lion and his spirelings
Slay the spire 2, dipped in momma lion's chili oil~
Watching NL sit on his cards for 5 minutes, and after everyone else has played 100 cards, "oh I can give double damage and vulnerable" is just peak
Can't belive there wasnt any fanfare at all for the big Sovereign Blade damage
I can't believe it took me so long to understand the "stun seed" joke, but it only happened because he said Stun Steed during the read out.
He is so visibly happy in this video.
I can relate, I am over the moon with STS2
Watching NL grab a second Refine Blade instead of a Cosmic Indifference for a Forge build hurt my soul. Because the latter lets you play SB then put it right back into your hand next turn instead of redrawing, it more or less serves the same purpose as summon forth but as a next turn option. but at least he got one later.
1:56:09 when its your turn to sound off in the sakuracon promo
26:00 people get excited for choose 3. We are back
This is great. I tried watching a different co-op video and they were completely determined to not play it co-op they just wanted to go on their own. They were making fun of one of the guys for wanting to use bash before the others attacked.

he should have just played the vulnerable, it benefited him more than the other two. roffle is an asshole tho.
2:00:28 we come to barter is hilarious though. Like yeah you're an eldritch god and I wanna trade some cattle.
has all his sacred blade scaling cards in hand, enemys doing minimal damage , plays 3 default blocks... chad
"can anyone else do a little damage?"
NL: i only got blocks (with 5 attacks in hand)
WE'RE SO BACK BABYY
I don’t know how I didn’t realize just how bald he is when the headphones are off holy fuck
1:18:37 tilted me on Apollo's behalf
northern LIAR am i right
i was shamefully type A in that moment
@itsssfury I love NL, I love STS, I love STS2.
Watching this man play any other game I get slightly perturbed when he makes a questionable choice. But this video broke me.. my jaw lay at my feet.
@ploskit this is just me every other sts video and then he goes and does ascension 20 anyway
The debuff stacking in co-op is insane, you can casually deal thousands of damage on turn 1.
@1:26:30 hows he gonna sac void form mannn. his blade costs 3 damn mana
My mouth is agape
Im seething
I actually turned off the video
can anyone explain why he would gambling chip away his whole hand every time with seemingly no rhyme or reason to what he was looking for? he just always threw everything away. am i missing something?
If you thought watching just NL was rage bait, you're in for a treat.
Man can’t build a deck
[his 3 friends do 1,000 damage over 3 turns while NL does nothing]
"Guys, watch this, I'm about to do like 100 damage. Actually I need one more turn I'm out of energy."
This is the best co-op playthrough I've seen posted yet, hope you make more.
Video starts, three people start talking about things I can't see, "Welp, this will be clear and easy to follow."
Bro FIRE POTION YOUR FRIENDS 🗣️
Forget GTA VI, this is my GOTY
1:40 - "takes, takes, takes, takes, uhmm, King to A4, takes, takes.."
MCG must know black magic to make this all work so perfectly.
55:33 Alignment is so free I’m losing it. I’ll jus buy the game lol
This was fun to watch!
fully expected to get goatse’d in a nl video in 2026
ITS PEAAAAAAK
The co op is so good, and what a squad to boot
Bro this is probably the best co-op ever implemented in a card game like this. Im impressed! Seriously. The fact theres multiplayer only cards and hopefully relics! If they keep improving it this game is going to the moon!
This is peak content, more of this thank you!
he HATES posting bespoke youtube content before going on vacation
8:14 my GOATse!
A polygoat
Wait until they get the relic that picks up everything from every shop they will cream
36:45 aura farming
NL's face when he was deciding whether to add void form had me dying. 1:26:01
I foresee another 2000 episodes to this series
Doormaker, I've come to barge-in!
This is fuckin incredible
dude hes playing like elon with these numbers and promises about next turn next turn
why is he discarding his forging cards on turn 1 with no incoming damage
7:40 we might be the best to ever do it moment
Dude, I remember playing the board game and it felt just like this with the amount of targetting we did lol
1:50:06
This is what "Hype" means to me.
I have been feening for this content man
Bro, this is a blast, we crave more slay the spire!!
46:21 the gamer doth protest too much, methinks.
it's insane how quickly everything became so hectic
More of this content would be awesome.
Aguirre letterboxd review goes hard
I remember when Bro and I used to spend time together picking from 3 all day long.
1:26:14 jim carrey in the mask
This was enjoyable!
