If they added Garlic to block vuln, they'd have to make it lock you out of the bites event, or maybe you get the bites but they give you -1 strength on draw
@@mekaloton That's fair comment. Still, I'd like the set to have a sense of being complete. Maybe the mushroom will get an upgrade to immunity to vulnerable? Does that make artifact too weak? I dunno. I couldn't balance these things, I just fell in love with the idea of the garlic relic. How many relics rhyme?!
I feel like your boss swap relics usually work out. I tried one yesterday and I swapped to the Sozu, then all my relics went potion based. I got the potion belt, the white beast statue, the toy ornithopter. The only non potions i got were the bronze scales, the latern, the ornimental fan, and i think the incense burner. I did not survive the act 2 boss.
Keep in mind there's a lot of survivorship bias on the RUclips runs, where wins are more likely to become a video. The Spire is just like that sometimes.
Adding onto what the others have said, I think in one of his videos from earlier this week is that his win rate on each character is somewhere in the range of 50-60%. For every absolutely busted run we see here on youtube, there are probably a dozen failures and unremarkable wins before it.
Just randomly thought of what the highest damage you could deal in one card was (not including searing blow and brilliance because just saying infinity isn't fun) You'd need to start with ironclad with a prismatic shard, Then you need any card or relic that gives strength, limit break+ to reach 999 strength, the divinity stance, pen nib, phantasmal killer, vulnerable with paper phrog, and finally the card that actually deals the damage: heavy blow+. This would deal (14+(999×5))×3×2×2×1.75 for a whopping total of 105189 damage. I spent a good few minutes thinking about this and couldn't find anything further, but I'll be happy to hear if anyone can improve this :)
@@beaub9418 oh shit, you're right as well. Though I'm inclined to ignore wreath of flame because it falls under the same category as searing blow and brilliance where there's no cap to how much you can theoretically stack.
Would you rather have relics with combos or relics stepping on each other's foot? I was thinking what if, when you have dreamcatcher, taking coffee dripper would open a new option like girya in the rest sites that would make you "drink a coffee" instead, so that you would still pick a card with dreamcatcher but wouldn't rest.
So, I did the math and, assuming I didn’t mess up, you must play Claw+ 16 times before it matches the damage output of an equal number of Steamline+ plays Naturally, that says nothing about cClaw’s advantages, namely that it’s free from the beginning and that upgrading it is considered pretty unnecessary. Still, it shows why Streamline is usually a better pick. In essence, you only need one, and the upfront damage makes it extremely useful in Act 1, when you want it most. And then, it remains a solid attack for the rest of the game, sometimes even becoming your core damage plan. Claws, on the other hand, offer little up front value and demand a lot of investment to be successful. Much of that investment is less rewarding up front, too, meaning you have to scale into a Claw deck in other, off brand ways. Basically, it’s much harder and riskier
i think they should make this smokebomb "glitch" within slay the spires 2, like a specific mechanic that you can do with any characters and a very specific item/string of events or something to be able to skip the last boss fight if you get enough of a score or something similar
With the talk on claw during the first floors: how much better/viable would selfsynergistic cards like claw / pressure points / clash be if you got 2 of them in your first pickup?
Checked and confirmed that garlic is, indeed, a root vegetable. Specifically, it is an allium, along with onion, shallot, etc. You’re welcome. However, I’m in favor of Turmeric for anti- vuln. 😂
In my limited experience, Pandora's Box boss-swaps are disastrous and completely kill my runs, every time. It really ruins everything when your deck suddenly has one or two block cards and a bunch of random parts of different archetypes that don't work well together at all.
I don't know if this is a known glitch, but I was playing with mods but nothing that should have affected being able to skip ahead to act 4... I didn't even have all the keys, act 3 started and basically the screen went black and skipped straight to act 4.. I was incredibly confused and I actually wanted to play act 3 because the run was going really well. So I ended up turning the game off turning it back on and I was back to act three. I don't know what I did. The mods I had should not have allowed that to happen. I remember messing around and just clicking on the screen everywhere. I've always been curious if that was a glitch that could be recreated or if it was some weird thing with mods that I had turned on. No idea
If Strawberries and raspberries arent "berries", then the word berry needs a new definition that fits what we consider a berry to be A goddamn banana isnt a berry. you dont peel a berry to eat it
That's a clegally actionable title!
This title is an egregious lie and will be met with the full force of the claw.
He will be hearing from my clawyer
You could say that it's...CLAWFUL!
This is an amazing comment and reply chain!
Edit: He needs to stop in the name of the claw!
It's a matter of climinal justice!
I'm taking that blasphemous title all the way to the Supreme Clawrt!

if you let them bite you and you have garlic you die and the run ends
OK well now I want a garlic relic that blocks vulnerable more than anything I wanted to see in Slay the Spire 2.
This is irrational but it would complete the set so nicely.
odd mushroom in shambles

Watching your videos has made me a big Streamline enjoyer.
It’s good early damage with solid late game potential. You can almost never go wrong with it
1:13:35 what you realize after ten years of zen meditation in the mountains
Streamline really just is the card people pretend claw is lol.

Well, I expect one thing is a better player. Also on this channel every swap works because he only posts winning runs here :D
Can always check his unedited channel. If you're looking to learn sometimes seeing why his losses don't work can be just as valuable as the dubs

15:09 does anyone have the clip of him skipping the heart
Heart skip glitch: www.twitch.tv/baalorlord/clip/TolerantKathishPlumberDerp
Full science run: ruclips.net/video/cpXRUio-tvo/видео.html
If you search baalorlord heart skip there's a youtube short and a twitch clip in the first two results of it. It's pretty dank.
I just googled "baalorlord heart skip" and it came up right away. Unfortunately it's just a short, not as much context as I'd like personally

Akabeko is only thing I can think of
@@FireTrtl wow, I can't believe I didn't think about that, it would add 96 more damage to the total, making it 105285
You forgot it's a prismatic shard run and you also have wreath of flame.
@@beaub9418 oh shit, you're right as well. Though I'm inclined to ignore wreath of flame because it falls under the same category as searing blow and brilliance where there's no cap to how much you can theoretically stack.
@@beaub9418 I guess you're right, but if you include wreath of flame it just turns into infinity again and that's boring.
Blasphemous! Claw is law! Claw is love!
49:34 finally, value from my unceasing top
recursion with nuclear battery was so cool :) especially during the heart fight
I’m always happy to see love for Whose Line

Love whose line is it anyway!! Where the points don’t matter! Always wanted to be Ryan Stiles. One of my favourite comics all time.
"Streamline is end game damage" - Getting focus high enough that 3 lightning orbs are doing 90% of Omega damage is also end game damage.
So, I did the math and, assuming I didn’t mess up, you must play Claw+ 16 times before it matches the damage output of an equal number of Steamline+ plays

52:41 You have to wait for the sequel for garlic!
Starting with the plasma, id be looking to avoid orbs and go for a Reprogram plan.
yes, but bias cog
Recursion becomes an on-the-lookout common for the battery swap.
You would not be doing that while trying tobstreak on A20. It is POSSIBLE to make Reprogram deck work but it's so unlikely you would never go for it.
i think they should make this smokebomb "glitch" within slay the spires 2, like a specific mechanic that you can do with any characters and a very specific item/string of events or something to be able to skip the last boss fight if you get enough of a score or something similar
Damn man you melted the second boss. Nice run bro.
Do you get a new burning elite next act if you don't pick up the green key or is it lost for the rest of the run ?
You get it
One appears every floor until you defeat it
Let's not say Blasphemies in Titles please
Let's not impose your belief system on others please
@@ummyeah1980I think they were joking
@@MosstoadWhoosh
Blasphemies in Titles.
Your move
@@Mosstoad yea, thanks for pointing that out, it seems it wasn’t obvious enough 🤣
What strategy is the best for stalling a defect run?
Ask the robot to look up recursion in the dictionary.
Recursion: See Recursion.
2 hour run and the frozen eye was gained at the very last shop lol
With the talk on claw during the first floors: how much better/viable would selfsynergistic cards like claw / pressure points / clash be if you got 2 of them in your first pickup?
So would you be always happy if Capacitor was sometimes generated or would you be sometimes happy that it was generated?
Wait, is the clip/run of skipping the Heart on RUclips? Can we get a link to the clip on Twitch?

4:16 anybody know what baalor is talking about here? how or why the game would reroll a boss or an act? what is the no-duplication glitch?
I don't know if this is a known glitch, but I was playing with mods but nothing that should have affected being able to skip ahead to act 4...

Claw is law for a reason friend
If you skip a shop without going in, do the relics that would show up get preserved for the run or are they gone no matter what?
1:21:30 had lethal again
never seen a hologram in the run, weird
Sorry, sent the comment just before the spire and the shield
