I honestly dont watch Xecnar because i dont have time to watch 1 run that takes 6 hours. I know hes an incredible player but sitting through that is brutal IMO
Timestamps for when Baalor picks up the cards and relic in the thumbnail (Second Wind, Juggernaut, and Runic Pyramid): Second Wind: (20:11) (Floor 31 Shop) Runic Pyramid: (24:43) (Act 2 Boss) Juggernaut: (53:04) (Act 4 Elite) Is this deck functional? Deeply unclear!
Wounds that immediately became second wind or fiend fire fuel. With pyramid that means Firebreathing is doing 0-20 aoe damage per fight. Even without pyramid it would only be like 0-50 weighted more towards the lower end. The only fight firebreathing would do meaningful work in was Donu & Deca and he clearly didn't need help in that fight. No point in effectively adding a curse to your deck for one fight that's already solved.
Pass on Juggernaut 2 times, get it right when it was most important. Baalor shows that luck only applies when you're good enough to stay alive long enough to get lucky! I'd have been dead in Act 2 with this deck.
Cursed key is the biggest reason, it’ll only go positive in act 3 which is eh, especially when the opportunity for cursed key it better. Theres also the rarity aspect because the matryoshka relic can’t be rare.
Yeah, it's because of cursed key and also the rarity chances from a treasure chest. Matryoshka will never give you a rare relic, and the bonus relic will be 75% chance common, 25% chance uncommon. According to the wiki, the rarity chances from a treasure chest are roughly 49% common, 42% uncommon, 9% rare. Also you can never swap the matryoshka bonus relic for the blue key. With Cursed Key you usually don't open more than one chest because you fall behind on card removes, the map can also be bad and not offer you shops after chests, or the paths with shops after chests are awkward. And if you have the blue key in act 1, you even have the option to take the Cursed Key and skip both chests. With that said, if you get Matryoshka, you open one chest with cursed key, and you have to take the blue key anyway because you're skipping the next chest as I said. So Matryoshka replaces itself but it's with a low quality relic. As opposed to keying matryoshka, getting the cursed key, then having a higher quality relic on average. Without cursed key, then it's a matter of "Do I want one potentially rare relic + 2 relics that are never going to be rare, or do I want 2 potentially rare relics?". The two outcomes I would say are roughly similar, so then Matryoshka is not even giving me an upside on average, and it only has the downside of making one boss relic worse. So yeah, this is why it sucks, especially from the act 1 chest
Okay here's the reasoning A. You need to see anothet chest in the future which is not guaranteed especially if you take cursed key as the act 1 boss relic B. It only shows an extra relic of the uncommon and common rarity. No helix, no stop watch. No peace pipe C. You might pickup the said items above and have to get the blue key later in the acts
Seeing the thumbnail and then hearing Baalor say “juggernaut ain’t crap” at his third card reward 😂
Less than an hour vid?? In this economy??
I low-key love the "in the economy?" Joke archetype lul
The unbelieveable power of tiny house
This run truly demonstrates the power of tiny house. It carried this run from the very beginning
He abused a broken combo?! He hasn't ever done that before!
If the worst thing you can say about a channel is that its video titles are midly clickbaity then that's a damn good channel.
He can't keep getting away with this.
"self-forming clay is gonna go hard here."
Generates 9 block total. lol
That joke at the beginning immediately reminded me of Griftlands where one NPC is named Fshh, and she was a human-fish missing an eye.

Real StS fans have a 6-hour Xecnar video going in one window and an 8-hour Lifecoach video in the other.
@ 😂😂😂 I need to step it up bro
@@neillpatterson ropecoach even years after hearthstone
I think Tiny House just needs to give an extra potion slot and it would be decent enough.
or choose the upgrade after the new card

Not taking the fire breath with that many wound gen was painful
Lol true, but the moment he got pyramid it became garbage

3:53 he used liquid memories fighting the gremlin nob, and got a liquid memories and a gremlin horn from the fight.. 😮
well you know what they say
Pass on Juggernaut 2 times, get it right when it was most important. Baalor shows that luck only applies when you're good enough to stay alive long enough to get lucky! I'd have been dead in Act 2 with this deck.
That Collector fight was absolutely hilarious
Still not convinced Baalor plays games other than Slay the Spire.
This is the least I've seen baalor think about a run good shit
Magnetism + Second Wind was actually pretty sick.
Tiny House OP confirmed.
4! Always a good day when a new video drops !
may I ask why you didn't take matryoshka on the first floor? it seems to me that it replaces itself...

Should have taken all the fire breathings he was offered. 60 damage per wound would destroy everything.
Steel mad
This is an angry lookin robot 🥴
Remove feel no pain from the deck and it suddenly is 50% worst.

4:45 In what world is turning down 2 free relics correct?
edit: How is one REAL free relic worse than possible hypothetical, marginal benefits?
Basically turned down one relict. And a later chest might have a better option.
Also allows for a free take of the cursed key boss relic
@@Pliegler A whole relic for a chance that two relics might both be better than the key? If you say so...
@@911meltdown2 Giving up two free relics is "free" now?
Okay here's the reasoning
A. You need to see anothet chest in the future which is not guaranteed especially if you take cursed key as the act 1 boss relic
B. It only shows an extra relic of the uncommon and common rarity. No helix, no stop watch. No peace pipe
C. You might pickup the said items above and have to get the blue key later in the acts
