@@JJ-on3yv I like that with the Silent runs we’ve been getting fewer OP act 1 decks. The broken clad decks are great, but can only watch so many sneko strength exhaust runs
At 33:38 indeed there was lethal if we full-sent to the Leader: 4 shivs would deal 56 physical damage, 4 poison damage and 28 Sadistic Nature damage (total 88) 2 strikes would deal 12 physical damage, 2 poison damage and 14 SN damage (total 116)
Yep, -18 HP into Act 2 boss. Very poor RNG with getting both Sadistic Nature and Envenom stolen by the minions. At 38:52 if he doesn't draw leg sweep, he's dead. Pretty close! :]
Yeah, i recently also discovered sadistic nature. My first silent heart kill on A20. It was also my first ever deck with sadistic nature. That is why i love this game. You can have 500 hours, and still find something new in every run.
Timestamps for when Baalor picks up the cards in the thumbnail (Sadistic Nature and Master of Strategy): Sadistic Nature: (3:10) Master of Strategy: (46:55) And here we see the Silent, strategizing on how to be as sadistic toward the Spire as possible!
despite the deck in this run being much weaker, it was really gimmicky, and seeing you pull off amazing comebacks and limp around but make it was wayy more satisfying than a run where you get nightmare + upgraded catalyst and destroy everything
I think "mind blowingly good" isn't how I'd describe this run haha. It was mainly running on the skin of its teeth the whole time, thank gosh for that kunai you bought that you weren't going to buy! Maybe mind blowingly good content, I prefer the runs where you snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.
Mind-blowingly good run with a mind-blowingly mediocre deck. I really liked it. Thik it highlighted Baalorlord's mastery of the game, winning with a struggling deck like that. I am a big fan of "low budget spire" as well.
Literally just had my first Silent plus Sadistic run. I used the mirror to copy an upgrades Sadistic. Poison blade landed in my hands as my first few card options so I took them and replaced strikes. Turning Neutralize into a 17 damage plus weak card at zero cost is so fun. oh, and 3 copies of piecing wail was pretty great addition.
idk if this gets addressed later in the video, but at 33:41 i do believe you have a kill on gremlin leader - unless im missing something Each shiv hits for 14 base + 7 sadistic + 1 envenom = 22 x 4 shivs = 88 you have 2 energy left and 2 strikes 2 spend them on: 6 base + 7 sadistic + 1 envenom = 14 x 2 strikes = 28 28 + 88 = 116 takeaway is that sadi + envenom + shivs hits like an artillery shell, apparently edit: im seeing some comments farther down to similar effect
It would have been expensive with only 3 energy, but at around minutes you could have had an upgraded Riddle With Holes to go with your Envenom and Sadistic Nature. That's a killer combo
I have been taking distraction more as it was early floors and the other card picks were bad.... It actually ended up saving me the run during the champ fight with a catalyst AND the heart fight by giving me malaise. It was wonderful
loved this run, i would not have run this run and would have retried several fights several times before just sayings its not gunna work and play irnclad again
1:15:02 Not sure why Baalor is underestimating his own damage. He could have killed spear here without using the potion, playing the same cards and blocking the same amount of: 2 shivs, each dealing 15 damage + 7 sadistic + 1 poison, would be 46 damage Plus the dagger throw’s 19 damage (11 + 7 + 1) is 65. It was way more than enough
@@elim9054i was referring to a second later when, after having played two shivs, Baalor deliberated on the need for the Fear potion. You could also note how with just two shivs the spear’s health dropped all the way to 57 HP, and he still has a cloak and dagger and dagger throw left
This run definitely did a lot of damage once all the powers got down, so much so that Baalor made quite a bit of uncharacteristic mistakes counting damage. Missing lethals that could have reduced damage or putting extra damage into things that would already have died. The 1:15:20 moment was a waste of a vuln pot, since it was already dead without it, and it could have shaved a turn or two off the heart,or been used earlier to save damage on the spear/shield fight. Tbf, the damage calculations on this were extremely complicated, with the shiv bonuses, poisons, and sadistic nature.
In general losses tend to get way worse views that wins do as an overall trend, as I understand it. But in his Unedited YT page, he's been posting 'Low-Budget Spire' runs that also include losses.
The short answer is that they don't perform as well in the algorithm. I recommend going to the VODs channel "Baalorlord unedited" if you want to see losses mixed in with wins, as well as a bit of post-run commentary. Video titles note the games played and video chapters mark out runs.
I don't understand that. Do people skip to the end first and if it's a loss they decide not to watch it? I'd gladly watch a loss because it would make an unpredictable outcome out of every other video by extension. If I see a video now, I know it's a win before I even click it. But if losses were uploaded as well you'd never now which is which until the end
I think that innate cards would he actually good for your deck if they drew after your starting 5. It’s really hard to commit 1 of your 5 draws to a specific card every combat…
Literally any more draw. The run might have just ended if MoS wasn't purchasable in that store. Backflip and Calculated Gamble would have gone crazy with Kunai and Bandages respectively, but Acrobatics is pretty much always good on 4+ energy too.
@@92larsko yeah if you don't quite get some drops it can be tougher. It still wins more than it doesn't. This is still a great win path for silent regardless
Look, an Adrenaline's an Adrenaline, but this Distraction+ could be anything! It could even be an Adrenaline!
And man, do we really need one of those! Let's pick Distraction+
"Mind Blowingly Good" but the entire run Baalor keeps mumbling "this deck is not good, not good"
🔥 🗑
Or "hot garbage" comes to mind
That's clickbait for ya.
Yeah terrible title. I was actually glad to see a run that was not perfect.
@@JJ-on3yv I like that with the Silent runs we’ve been getting fewer OP act 1 decks. The broken clad decks are great, but can only watch so many sneko strength exhaust runs

@@ldidok No RNG here with the minions as they always take your rarest cards
more of RNG with the draws not being able to play them before they are stolen
@@creep7876 he didn't get none of those cards in their 1st and 2nd draw, which would have made the fight much easier.

"Mind Blowingly Good!" and spends the act 2 just getting bodied
It was mind blowing, and it was eventually good 😅
It wasn't the deck that was mind-blowingly good. Seriously, I would have died at so many points in this...

That after imige from the power potion at the heart fight... clutch
"no refunds, twitch chat" but can us youtubes?
We don't even have the currency to buy them. What could we even be refunded?
@@ROFLcondaif we have none of a currency we neither want nor need are we rich or poor?

Each shiv hits for 14 base + 7 sadistic + 1 envenom = 22 x 4 shivs = 88
you have 2 energy left and 2 strikes 2 spend them on: 6 base + 7 sadistic + 1 envenom = 14 x 2 strikes = 28
28 + 88 = 116
takeaway is that sadi + envenom + shivs hits like an artillery shell, apparently
edit: im seeing some comments farther down to similar effect
that gremlin cursing moment after the curse key lol
"Mind Blowingly Good!" is accurate - it simply does not refer to the deck, but to Baalorlord's ability to eke a W here.
10:19
Baalor: See ya later
Me: Nice...
It would have been expensive with only 3 energy, but at around minutes you could have had an upgraded Riddle With Holes to go with your Envenom and Sadistic Nature. That's a killer combo

Those blocks at the Bronze Automaton were so clutch
The only thing greater than the swings in this run were your mood swings in this run.
Unlucky that you didn't choose the panache, but salvaged
46:26 2 gold short of mummified hand hurts... that said, a remove might have still been better.
Nice lice giving a slice!😊
loved this run, i would not have run this run and would have retried several fights several times before just sayings its not gunna work and play irnclad again

What a wild run!
Would love to hear his opinion on how better or worse Panache would be
46:30 That hurts so much.
loving all the silent runs lately
That deck had a lot more problems then I would have thought...
“Mind blowingly good”
*looks inside*
“I think this deck is bad.”
Has baalor ever answered why he doesn't post losses? For the streaks specifically I'd love not knowing whether he wins or loses.
In general losses tend to get way worse views that wins do as an overall trend, as I understand it. But in his Unedited YT page, he's been posting 'Low-Budget Spire' runs that also include losses.
The short answer is that they don't perform as well in the algorithm. I recommend going to the VODs channel "Baalorlord unedited" if you want to see losses mixed in with wins, as well as a bit of post-run commentary. Video titles note the games played and video chapters mark out runs.
Often times the "loss" isn't that interesting. A lort of losses are down to low rolls on low rolls with bad draws on an already struggling deck.
He's done it before and the views are abysmal by comparison
I don't understand that. Do people skip to the end first and if it's a loss they decide not to watch it?
I'd gladly watch a loss because it would make an unpredictable outcome out of every other video by extension. If I see a video now, I know it's a win before I even click it. But if losses were uploaded as well you'd never now which is which until the end
Kunai saved the run act 2. That was suuuuuuper close.
I think that innate cards would he actually good for your deck if they drew after your starting 5. It’s really hard to commit 1 of your 5 draws to a specific card every combat…
Currently, im at late act 3, and i dont think the escape plan has drawn a skill a single time 😅😢
I did its job from the act 3 bosses forward 🎉
It did a couple of times, but not often enough lol
What cards if any would have made this deck better?
Literally any more draw. The run might have just ended if MoS wasn't purchasable in that store. Backflip and Calculated Gamble would have gone crazy with Kunai and Bandages respectively, but Acrobatics is pretty much always good on 4+ energy too.
I think the main things to take away from this run are that kunai is broken and piercing wail is also broken
I’m most definitely copying this seed and picking Panache :)
Is this foreshadowing him having 3 blade dance?
Sadistic nature, envenom, and a shiv deck is auto win. I always go for it now and it's kind of consistent if you get the nature
This was anything but an automatic win, tho. He really had to work for it
@@92larsko yeah if you don't quite get some drops it can be tougher. It still wins more than it doesn't. This is still a great win path for silent regardless
This run dies miserably without the kunai lol
What build it is?
Silent
This deck on pancakes would be insane
For a skillful player, a not so good deck is just good enough to win! GG!
Is the “Mind Blowingly Good!” In the room with us?
because Jürgen Würgen is another term for Mastubate in German
Kunai hard carried most this run
Tight run although you weren't always tight. RNG was really not too friendly to you though. Bandage up then laughed at your face.
Not exactly “Mind blowingly good” when you’re hanging on for dear life the entire time
