Honestly i half think the discussion on the value of snecko's eye should be it's own video for a reference for newer players. Frost's explanation was honestly fantastic.
I'd love to see this more and labelled for the deck builds of each character. Knowing the cards to look for and order of play. by watching your runs has made me so much better at this game.
I believe he's said before that there aren't really "builds" in this game. There's so much rng that goes into which cards you get that it's better to think for yourself how your cards work together. You'd be surprised how many cards in each class synergize when used properly. Frost did however make a tier list of cards for each class which might be useful for some guidance.
It's more productive to think about how cards help you address your upcoming threats. In act 1 you should prioritize upfront damage over scaling or synergies until you've added and upgraded at least a couple of cards.
Basic example: Blade dance is a strong card in act 1, but it's not because you might get a "shiv build" going. It's strong because its damage per energy is much better than a strike (literally twice as good) and upgrading it adds more damage to your deck than upgrading a strike would. Likewise adding a raw Accuracy to your deck in act 1 is almost always a bad idea, because it won't do anything for you right away and it's not guaranteed to ever do anything. Even if you already have a few blade dances, an early accuracy may not be correct unless you need a scaling solution to kill Hexaghost or Lagavulin quickly.
As far as builds and synergies, he's said you can definitely look for things that work well with what you have and it takes some time to recognize those, but you shouldn't go into any run trying to do anything in particular, cuz like if you say "I'm going to make a poison build this game" and you never find any poison cards, then you're screwed.
This is not the way to play slay the spire. Forcing decks will make you lose more.
@@Lamb666Losing is only detrimental to your efficient use of time.
You can commit to a particular play style until it eventually gives you a win.
the bit where you went super into detail with the sneko eye was great. i always steer clear of it. but having you explain all that, it makes sense. if your deck has good overall "value" its perfectly fine to take it.
Honestly, watching your runs has really helped me learn about the game.
I think my biggest fault is understanding the minutia of chances, like remembering potion rates and the chance for a monster to do a type of attack and plan accordingly.
Sad that Snecko had to be skipped, but I think the analysis of it was correct. You were too dependent on cards for energy, and your draw was already quite good with centennial+dark embrace+double offering. Corruption would have made it a no-brainer, but it almost always does.
Watching Frost's videos, I've learned that taking Feed and Reaper and out-pacing damage with max HP and healing is superior to taking any block card ever. Barricade? Never met her.
But 200 dmg shield slams though.
@@Gaze73barricade, body slam and entrench are a hilarious combo lmao
Found the hearthstone player@@Gaze73

i have never taken snecko eye until hearing frost's praise for it, and once i tried it i beat the heart with the silent for the first time. i wasn't even trying for heart, i just went for it on a whim once i got a useless relic from a chest. i will be taking snecko eye very often from now on.
Yeah the idea is the less strikes and defenses you have, the better it gets. As long as your cards are high value/you have 4 energy, Snecko is a no-brainer. The innate +2 draws every turn is already super high value.
Ironclad moment
Man, frost really out there not letting that person's boyfriend simp on him. He's really a trouper
Oddly, Ironclad is sort of the one character I'm having the most trouble figuring out. I think I learned some stuff from this vid, thanks!
Ironclad is billed as the “simplest” character to play, but his method of blocking isn’t straightforward. Ironclad blocks by:
- Having a shit ton of max HP
- Healing with Reaper & strength scaling
- Using exhaust synergies, as shown in this video
- Abusing Barricade and Entrench
Ironclad is a nobrainer. Just perfected the heart with like 200 armor. The Silent is the worst, sometimes I die in act 1.
Its the most simplest out of them get flex upgrade duplicate, get jax event choose jaxxed card if you didn't duplicate flex duplicate jaxxed because its op then get demon form get limit break then dominate
You got me to ascension 18 with the ironclad so far (10-ish on the others), with this vid im gonna hit 20 im sure ! Ty for the content
Thank you Professor Frost, great lesson
I think the biggest takeaway new players can get is on card pick priority
The answer is always pick the card that solves your current problem.
Do you not have enough damage? Pick a strike+
Not enough block?
Pick a block+
Too many energy but you can't spend it all?
Get card draw
Can't play barricade without endangering yourself?
Get more energy
Your strikes are dirtying your draw even though you have better strike+ cards?
Remove strike, same goes for block
After you've made a solid deck, then maybe in act 2 you can start leaning into an archetype if you do see any in your cards
ive been watching through your recent vids from last few days. and ive been learning a lot!!!
Loving these educational runs would love to see you do the cycle of characters again to see other seeds and how you handle them
I came for frost. I stayed for starfox music… and frost! X
One of the few sts video makers that doesn’t make want to bash my face against an elite
32:50 this whole section about Snecko was pretty damn helpful
After four hundred hours, I thought I was getting a grip on how to play this game. The infinite combos were insane to me. And I've never beaten the Heart. I naturally fell into an insane deck build right now, with Ironclad, and I can say I've been choosing cards way differently. I just killed the unawoken like in four turns, and I don't know what the fuck is going on. Holy shit, I did not think enough about this. But it's been fun the whole time.
We want more
Loved the in depth, the Snecko explanation section was very fun
After you said bash your face into elites I bashed my face into a pillow thinking it wouldn’t hurt and gave myself a bloody nose
You know what I wish for? An StS mod that when you play Uppercut, plays Shoyruken audio (and shows the Ken chibi GIF doing the move)
If you play two Uppercuts in a row, plays Shoryureppa audio (plus GIF) ... and three Uppercuts in a row, plays Shinryuken audio (last GIF)
Any modders out there that can make this StS wish come true? Yuge thanks in advance. ✊
Really happy that you're doing more of these
More stuff for the algorithm. One of the few RUclipsrs left who can make me smile.
Loving this educational sts! I like to compare what decisions I'd make to yours to see how I can do better 😀
Iron man go brrrrrrr
Oh, this is a tutorial video. Neat! I was wondering why he was going so in-depth on every play.
Did he just. Get choked up in that intro?
please do more, i've recently hit A5 on silent because of your advice /gameplay. thank you
What's the outro song? It feels so familiar and yet I can't remember.
One day if I meet frost in person, I'll say it in his face "Why are you so GOOD?":D
Pegglin poglin
also glasses do mean bigger brains
Someday I am gonna make it to a stream, I swear
You got this pal, go get 'em!
Oddly enough the ironclad is by far the hardest character for me
Hey so, maybe eventually you could do certain modded characters explained? Like a thorton explained, or packmaster, or somethin else!
What’s the song at the beginning intro?
*The Ironchad*
The Ironclad?
Yes, the Ironclad.
Woot woot more like iron CHAD
I personally would love to see status ironclad. Educational or not. Just at all would be sweet.
Thanks for the banger content.
Love educational content. Plz do more.
Where’s the defect over explained
These vids are dope I think you should keep letting them rock when you're down to make them
Love these learnin' vids!
40:15 I actually had a defect run recently, where i took snecko eye specifically becaus i had orange pellets, wich i could consistently play on turn one. havin a few out of 40 cards being worse cost was well worth the +2 draws
Good snecko explanation 👍
I sit in the front row because I'm near sighted and can't afford glasses.
Yes finally ironclad I've been waiting
Pls do more overexplainted but for issac also have your tried dead cells you may enjoy it
Still love some base game StS
Your key pieces are out of order
I was there for that stream! ❤️🧡💛
I personally would like more of these! 22?
The thing I secretly want is a streamer who does the daily climb each day and posts a video of that
In act 3 I was so confused because the path that frost was talking about wasn't being highlighted... I've been watching so much baalorlord that I forgot the highlighter wasn't part of the game lmao
Peglin poglin?
Please give us more educational videos like this!
thank you for u content!!!!!!
This is an amazing explanation of why snecko is good. I kinda understood it before but this put it into actual words
Love these videos! Keep ‘em coming✌🏼
Thank you for your guidance, strange SugarGlider Man.
I've just started STS, and IronChad is the only character I like cause of his damage and healing, but still play terribly.
Maybe I can reach Floor 3 again...
"Hit face on enemy"
POGGERS!!
That is all. ❤
Education poggies!
your hair looks sick today
No need to overly explain iron clad. You just go bingus bongus
Instructions unclear, currently hitting on enemy
You can find the best ironclad player in any given room with a glue-eating contest
The Ironclad!
After watching this I was able to beat the lvl 5 run with ironclad whom I struggle with 👍🏼 cheers
Poggies
I like how there's a translate to English option for this comment
@@ramacoppolaro1493 The translate to English! It does nothing!
Recently got bloodletting with ice cream, very energy build.
day 154 of asking frost to play chess
you have a cool shirt in the intro
He should play 1. d4
I'd honestly love to see another Defect video in this more traditional style. My ADHD brain can barely handle 1 hour let alone 2 lmao
In other words The Ironclad go BONK both to draw and to defend
frost is a massive marvel fan he has a blade tattoo
Do I need to use entrench with 274 block? No. Am I gonna? Absolutely
Right after i watched this video i went in and in my first couple runs i got a corruption at room 4 and i managed to then beat A20
COOL VIDEO
hello silly
Be cool to see the different archetypes of each class
This is Perfect, i am on Ascension 17 with everyone except for the ironclad for him I am on ascension 7 lol
with your knowledge i have beaten the heart twice now, i will report when i defeat it with the other two characters
My decks always get bloated with useless cards and I don't think I respect removal enough. Never seem to end up with a deck below 30 cards despite my best efforts.
love♥
Could you try Replay the Spire again? RTS with Packmaster is my new favorite way to play.
What was the first bgm from?
27:05 and you got 28 block twice lol
fricc
20min lecture is a pain
1hr of slay the spire lessons? Let me get my notepad :D
Why do you have demon form and heavyblade in your thumbnail but you never actually put them in your deck? This was an exhaust deck/necro whirlwind play.
You could teach us downfall characters...
The ironclad
I really like these videos it helps a lot, haven’t played in a bit (be on a skul grind) but when I get back on that ladder I know I’ll climb just a bit better from your wrinkly brain telling me what’s a good idea :)
snecko eye makes all my cards cost 3
Wait Hexghost does what?
want more
Honest question frost, have you slept well? U look tired in the intro. Please take care 🙏
MOREEEEEEEEEEEE
