He’s literally like “I don’t like the watcher because she’s actually so op that I end up getting overconfident and losing” but then just plays her so bad that she’s actually just not all that strong for him compared to the other characters lol
@@asmith9554 well of course if there’s anyone that watches NL videos because they think he’s really good at every game he plays they are very delusional, we watch for the egg
Haha, this really makes me wanna pick up Slay the Spire again! It's like a good book you can’t put down. 📚 Plus, that strategy totally had me on the edge of my seat! What's everyone's fave deck to play? 🤔
Yes but playing eruption in hopes of getting indignation and or fear no evil is insane. He maximized his draw by playing inner peace in calm rather than gambling for wrath enabler.
I'm no slay the spire genius, but I feel like NL overrates Vault a bit. Unless you have some serious extra energy, it is often too clunky to play at all, essentially just letting you draw a new hand. Not saying it's useless or doesn't have excellent decks, but he snap picks it a lot
I really love Vault with my lean, wrath-blitz decks as a “break glass” option if I don’t have any Halts in hand. Other than that, it’s a skip - spot on with him overvaluing it. A lot of the time it’s a dead card with his card-dense, stance-dancing decks. Still love the content though.
That turn at 39:40 was crazy man. Exiting wrath immediately to play around using a vault was insane. Why not just do the damage/kill one and then fear no evil at the end? It ended up working out for him after the use of a potion (and a bit of luck) but it was risky and he could do a little bit more thinking with vault synergies before he tries too hard to play around it.
Vault is almost never worse than skipping even in isolation, this deck was a little shy on energy for it but it's still solid if it just lets you mulligan. Also had Meditate to recur it when playing it wasn't feasible.

Hawk tuah on it, would you kindly?
even though you lost, still a great run. word of advice: study is bad and that second fury of blows in a stance dancing deck goes crazy
Haha, that Automaton fight was horrible. He'll learn to end turns in calm instead of wasting it on random shit soon, right?
