What happens in Egg's brain when an episode starts: "I would like to see myself as sane and rational individual" What happens in Egg's brain after a few loses: "booba booba boobalee"
*buys polydactily* *wants to buy pay to play* while already having a key and only needing another 3 so its basically paying 18 cents for 3 keys *buys starter deck for double card holding power, completely disregarding poly*
ironically enough, keeper must be the easiest character to do greedier , once you have swallowed penny, you can exploit it to give you nickels and dime and buy every item ever, and if you get the habit it's even faster.
It isn't Because it's hard to get trinkets on greedier, and you need a specific of them above all of the pool But yes, with the swallowed penny and a fuck ton of patience, the break is possible Doesn't even make close to be easier just to add a rare possibility of break for the all downsides of beeing the keeper
NL FFS. there was a half redheart IN THE SHOP for free. and you walked by it and then it cost you. WTF dude. and then you forgot p2p an then also bought starter deck after polydactyl. ALSO NL: Blood of the martyr gives Book of Belial a BIG BONUS to damage. don't pass on it like that. okay NL get some rest bud.
I'm thinking your logic with no key meta assumes that the one 15 cent item you do get to choose is guaranteed to be amazing like polyphemus or something, when it's more likely to be something basic but necessary like a small two-stat up. That knowledge balances the scales far more towards 5 random items I think.
you know, concluding that something is a "meta" after one success due to random chance is kind of dumb. "OHHH damage ups are not actually useful!" *has unicorn stump and a billion sacrificial daggers* (also why is 'meta' replacing 'strategy' as a word)
You know, I tried actually playing Isaac again, and I was going through the game acting like I knew everything from watching NL. But, apparently, there are _brimstone turrets_ in Sheol. It cost me my Brimstone + Tammy's Head run because I didn't know what the hell to do.
37:39 like or copy paste so egg can see. Those shots were coming from euthanasia,whenever a needle shot kills something,it bursts into more needle shots
'Weirdo dudes just walking around, annoying the Christ out of me' is now the canonical name for Gapers. And 'Large Man' is the canonical name for Mega Fatty.
"Let's do Judas Greedier Mode." *Enters the Curse Room Repeatedly* "Fuck you game, I'm holding down R." *Dies repeatedly* "Let's get Pay-to-Play, it's great in Greedier Mode." *Re-rolls Pay-to-Play before buying it* "Let's look for an HP upgrade blowing up a Polyps." *Gets hit by the Polyps tear effect* "2 of Diamonds!" *Has Tarot Cloth and 88 Cents, pops the card anyway before buying anything*
Pay to play is bad because you still spend 19cents to open 4 rooms rather than 20 and there's a chance to randomly get keys anyway. Egg also had a key so pay to play would have been a bad pickup.
I truly envy NLs ability to have encyclopedic knowledge. It would be terrific if my brain worked the same. To those that evidently don't understand, I'm not talking about the game, I'm referring to his encyclopedic knowledge of many things, including songs, and in this case movies and their dates of release. You know, like he demonstrates in almost every video.. ever.
Secret rooms on greed mode will always be super secret rooms. They never border 2 rooms, and can be found inside the curse room, as well as the last room you enter to get to a new floor.
Item idea- Isaacs hairball ( It's really heavy/ throw it!) Range (-10 range Down ?) and tears down ( 10 tears down/10 tear delay up?). Damage up.(+5 damage up?) Tears replaced with a charge attack that throws a hairball that will protrude a rock wave outward ( infinite bombs basically ) Knock back effect on the hairball .
21:48 Optimal play was to store Book of Belial in the item room and move Anarchist's Cookbook to the shop, then reroll with D6 to get 2 item rerolls and a shop reroll.
It is actually better to play 2 demon judgements once each. They have a 1 in 4 chance of paying out each play of them, but if they pay out, they can pay out with anything, not just the item. The item is as far as I know, a small probability likely around 20%. When they pay out, you can only play them once. That means that if one of them pays out with something you don't actively want to gather like a penny or something, you can play both of them and guarantee two plays, vs a possible 1 play. Euthenasia is the item that caused the Tammy's head shots to shoot like that. It causes you to randomly shoot a needle that deals 3x your damage and if it kills an enemy, like a Greed Head, it shoots out 10 needles like itself. In other words, Homing Polyphemus tears would mean you shoot 1 shot per room and win against anything that's not supertanky or invincible.
Eye of Belial is the best pierce shot item in the game. After it pierces an enemy, the next target getting hit will take double the damage. Rubber Cement works wonders with it, but Brimstone, Mom's Knife, and Ipecac override it. Dr. Fetus gets the piercing but not double damage. Ludo doesn't get the double damage input when hitting a target multiple times, but the size does increase.
Good run, my dude. I know it doesn't matter since you didn't stick with it, but Blood of the Martyr gives Book of Belial a 50% damage increase. It's pretty good.
Speech mistakes in this run: 11:55 "Deal with the angel statue is still preserved" 16:51 "We could have gotten a cube of meat per floor from prayer card" 18:03 "I owe that all to uh... torn photo" (Doesn't have torn photo) 23:13 "Or you know, getting the blue candle" (Item is black candle) :)
28:30 Stuck in a loop could have been good with the card meta, but yeah, penny might still be better 33:35 Doesn't the devil room usually appear where the locked room appears, so that means that the secret room have to be there this time.
Also think about this, you can already buy like one third of the items you see in the shop(exluding rerolls) so the currated item will be only slightly above average because everything far above average you buy with the rest of you money
I watch these videos for entertainment, and they always entertain. And then there are people who actually get salty, when he dies and dislike the video because of it. Idiots.
I can't wait for this guy to finish every greedier unlock. Not because I don't like the mode but because I don't think I can't take any more of this endless cycle of stupid decisions.
Beating Greedier with the Keeper actually isn't too bad. Make sure you have a stockpile of cash when you get into the fight, and every time you get hit and drop coins you can heal.
Can someone tell NL that pay to play isn't usually a good item for greed mode. At most it will save you 5 cents over the course of the run compared to just buying keys and that it's actually worse to pick it up any later than the caves unless it's on sale. Also Nl missed out on the book of belial blood of the martyr 1.5x multiplier
If it makes you feel any better NL, giving good commentary while also trying to dodge enemies and make good decisions on item pick ups that may cascade to something amazing in the future, takes a lot of brain power. Since the human brain is a mono-processor you're switching between those task rapidly
Last episode, NL tried to get to the second floor. In this episode, NL tries to get to the second floor. Next episode, NL tries to get to the second floor.
My volume was a little high after watching another video before moving to this one and I nearly had a heart attack when he yelled after dying the first time
NL you can do Keeper and Lost super easily on Greedier by using the clicker... just go until you have an unbeatable run and then reroll into one of those two and win
->Buys polydacrtyly for extra card room -> Forgets to buy Pay to play -> Buys Started deck for extra card room -> Says he's okay Congrats on the win though
For the last flippin' time: no key meta was only "working" because you still got keys in alternative means. Those item rooms carried you, on average, WAY more than the items you bought in terms of bang for the buck.
good ol' eggman, always picking up polydactyly and starter deck, always missing book of belial + blood of the martyr, always taking bad damage, always calling wire coat hanger "torn photo", always wanting to buy pay to play on the caves even though 3 keys is cheaper than 18 cents
What happens in Egg's brain when an episode starts:
"I would like to see myself as sane and rational individual"
What happens in Egg's brain after a few loses:
"booba booba boobalee"
with a wimpy tentacool
VilivanChto probably more like wubbalubbadubdub
mindflood.midi
VilivanChto *losses :)
buys polydactyl to hold two cards.
*buys starter deck on the next floor so he can hold two cards*
Now he will hold 4 cards
Is it just me or does Ryan get progressively more and more funny the further he drifts into insanity by dying?
*buys polydactily*
*wants to buy pay to play* while already having a key and only needing another 3 so its basically paying 18 cents for 3 keys
*buys starter deck for double card holding power, completely disregarding poly*
Creator of a small world Pay to Play gives you 5 cents when you pick it up
"I will buy a 3 cent key
and use it to get 1 cent and 1 key"
Personoide There is nothing wrong with this.
Justin time He wastes 2 cents.
Erhm? No. Spent: 3 cents, 1 key. Gained: 1 cent, 2 key. So he essentially spent 2 coins for 1 key.
Clearly cannot survive on one heart, visits the curse room right away every time, dies and dies again.
NL are you okay buddy?
"i'm gonna go buy Pay to Play." immediately rerolls it.
[witty egg comment goes here]
Kuso meinu and then he buys starter deck to make up for it, but he already had polydactyl
NL! Blood of the Martyr synergizes with Book of Belial making it 50% more potent
Sam Lasely yup facepalmed when he rerolled it, though this was back in rebirth, maybe he already forgot.
Vilius Rinkevičius
Maybe he never knew
I never knew, thanks!
it's also a good damage up on its own, but with book of belial, rerolling it is especially egregious.
Lol ty for saying this, I was gonna say it myself but you did it for me so thumbs up for that :D
says he shouldnt go to the curse room
does it anyway
xXTheKingEmothXx classic
SAYS HE IS GONNA BUY PAY TO PLAY AND REROLLS IT
MY NIGGA WHAT?
xXTheKingEmothXx you should help him with a gap to get out from there.
Zarchisael Faruhan man I wish I could. but he did redeem himself a little bit with the plays that won him the run.
Also, doesn't pick up the free hearts laying on the ground in shop
ironically enough, keeper must be the easiest character to do greedier , once you have swallowed penny, you can exploit it to give you nickels and dime and buy every item ever, and if you get the habit it's even faster.
It isn't
Because it's hard to get trinkets on greedier, and you need a specific of them above all of the pool
But yes, with the swallowed penny and a fuck ton of patience, the break is possible
Doesn't even make close to be easier just to add a rare possibility of break for the all downsides of beeing the keeper
GDKsan butwhatifhedoesn'tgetswallowedpennis?
hold R and break pots with your bomb until you have it
it's not rare, there's pot everywhere, use your bomb and see the results then R until swallowed penny
Is that your idea of fun?
I guess it's an option if you drift too deep into despair
NL FFS. there was a half redheart IN THE SHOP for free. and you walked by it and then it cost you. WTF dude.
and then you forgot p2p an then also bought starter deck after polydactyl. ALSO NL: Blood of the martyr gives Book of Belial a BIG BONUS to damage. don't pass on it like that.
okay NL get some rest bud.
"We're gonna buy a key to get 1 cent and a key"
Now that's value.
this is one of the most painful videos in awhile
But...But wax
Heh.. Butt wax.
The bad plays on the beginning of the successful run was way more painful than the deaths.
I'm thinking your logic with no key meta assumes that the one 15 cent item you do get to choose is guaranteed to be amazing like polyphemus or something, when it's more likely to be something basic but necessary like a small two-stat up. That knowledge balances the scales far more towards 5 random items I think.
Ye, plus if you don't get the item in your item room it'll just show up in the shop later on.
nl is not okay
"I can't believe we still have Judas left here"
Yeah, you can't say that when you rerolled your winning run into a really bad one.
I congratulate the egg for good play once, then he comes back with sloppy, lazy play. goddamn it.
Dies alot of times
Picks up Polydactyly
Rerolls Pay to Play
Picks up Starter Deck
...are you okay Ryan?
you know, concluding that something is a "meta" after one success due to random chance is kind of dumb. "OHHH damage ups are not actually useful!" *has unicorn stump and a billion sacrificial daggers*
(also why is 'meta' replacing 'strategy' as a word)
Alright let's see how egg fucks up this time
The Fiddler he dosent break the game with the 2 of diamonds
And he just died within two minutes. Bad damage
And he's died twice within 5 minutes. GG EZ
And he just made it three barely before the 8 minute mark
You know, I tried actually playing Isaac again, and I was going through the game acting like I knew everything from watching NL.
But, apparently, there are _brimstone turrets_ in Sheol. It cost me my Brimstone + Tammy's Head run because I didn't know what the hell to do.
lol rekted ez ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)...??
Thank you for not cutting out your failures this time. Every time you do that I feel like I missed out.
37:39 like or copy paste so egg can see. Those shots were coming from euthanasia,whenever a needle shot kills something,it bursts into more needle shots
The beginning was the game's way of paying back for that Judas run you threw by taking Missingno
Brownie's getting a bit over-excited.
'Weirdo dudes just walking around, annoying the Christ out of me' is now the canonical name for Gapers.
And 'Large Man' is the canonical name for Mega Fatty.
That start...I'd give you a hug if I could, bro.
blood of the martyr makes book of belial give +50% damage aswell, on top of the normal bonus
*NL* is playing like i normally do in the first 8 minutes.
"Let's do Judas Greedier Mode."
*Enters the Curse Room Repeatedly*
"Fuck you game, I'm holding down R."
*Dies repeatedly*
"Let's get Pay-to-Play, it's great in Greedier Mode."
*Re-rolls Pay-to-Play before buying it*
"Let's look for an HP upgrade blowing up a Polyps."
*Gets hit by the Polyps tear effect*
"2 of Diamonds!"
*Has Tarot Cloth and 88 Cents, pops the card anyway before buying anything*
"Alright we'll buy a three cent key... To get a key and one cent."
Economics with Northernlion
Pay to play is bad because you still spend 19cents to open 4 rooms rather than 20 and there's a chance to randomly get keys anyway. Egg also had a key so pay to play would have been a bad pickup.
bbo odd 19?
yes. 15 for the item and 1 cent per item room door.
glassen75 the item gives you 4 cents on pickup
I truly envy NLs ability to have encyclopedic knowledge. It would be terrific if my brain worked the same. To those that evidently don't understand, I'm not talking about the game, I'm referring to his encyclopedic knowledge of many things, including songs, and in this case movies and their dates of release. You know, like he demonstrates in almost every video.. ever.
Colechamdiceman to be fair he's played this game like every day for years
I wasn't referring to the game.
Good to know they still haven't fixed Brownie's retractable jet thrusters of death
Secret rooms on greed mode will always be super secret rooms. They never border 2 rooms, and can be found inside the curse room, as well as the last room you enter to get to a new floor.
Mod idea: Boxing glove.
Passive item.
When Isaac gets hit, a rotating boxing glove will hit every enemy in range, giving knock back.
Item idea- Isaacs hairball
( It's really heavy/ throw it!)
Range (-10 range Down ?) and tears down ( 10 tears down/10 tear delay up?).
Damage up.(+5 damage up?)
Tears replaced with a charge attack that throws a hairball that will protrude a rock wave outward ( infinite bombs basically )
Knock back effect on the hairball .
Morty MCDonald's that's like the donkey jawbone item from antibirth really . How about adding knock back and concussion to enemies?
The boxing glove will hit enemies and apply knock back and concussion
Thanks for the suggestion :)
him re rolling pay to play made my insides re roll
21:48 Optimal play was to store Book of Belial in the item room and move Anarchist's Cookbook to the shop, then reroll with D6 to get 2 item rerolls and a shop reroll.
18:33 I'm in tears XD
What the hell egg, Blood of the Martyr is super good with Book of Belial, and you just rerolled it.
The Comedian I was looking for that comment! Thought the same thing. thank you!
It is actually better to play 2 demon judgements once each. They have a 1 in 4 chance of paying out each play of them, but if they pay out, they can pay out with anything, not just the item. The item is as far as I know, a small probability likely around 20%. When they pay out, you can only play them once.

In other words, Homing Polyphemus tears would mean you shoot 1 shot per room and win against anything that's not supertanky or invincible.
That glitch with brownie killed me on a nearly guarenteed Lost Delirium win. ._.
"the red forget me now, I always forget the name of is not that good"
You mean the pill that can insta-kill the 2nd phase of greedier?
TRIGGERED
yeah, but his death animation lasts longer than 3 seconds.
The egg skipping blood of marty when it gives you 1.5x dam multiplier with book of belly hurt me
NL's meta of the week: Value traps, do they offer any value?
Eye of Belial is the best pierce shot item in the game. After it pierces an enemy, the next target getting hit will take double the damage. Rubber Cement works wonders with it, but Brimstone, Mom's Knife, and Ipecac override it. Dr. Fetus gets the piercing but not double damage. Ludo doesn't get the double damage input when hitting a target multiple times, but the size does increase.
ive face palmed so many times in the first 15 mins, best episode yet!
When Eggman doesn't realize that he bought starter deck for an extra card slot, but already has polydactyly
7:56 literally spilled my beer
i hope NL gets 1million subs by the end of this year
Deep pockets right next to polydactyl an item that does half of what deep pockets does
GG NL
That "Real American" cover of the seed, great job Egg!
Good run, my dude. I know it doesn't matter since you didn't stick with it, but Blood of the Martyr gives Book of Belial a 50% damage increase. It's pretty good.
Speech mistakes in this run:
11:55 "Deal with the angel statue is still preserved"
16:51 "We could have gotten a cube of meat per floor from prayer card"
18:03 "I owe that all to uh... torn photo" (Doesn't have torn photo)
23:13 "Or you know, getting the blue candle" (Item is black candle)
:)
I think he meant cube of meat per floor thanks to potato peeler. Which is silly because he can only carry 1 item at a time.
This was one of the most rage worthy runs, so much eggness
this might be the eggest episode from him that i have seen for awhile
he goes to the curse room, ignores the half heart in the shop.
Is nobody gonna point out that fuckin sonic speed brownie
After just watching Edge of Tomorrow, this was a really weird video to watch. there are just references of it within itself.
"Doctor I have a strange lump on my stomach"
"That would be a cancerous tumor formed from reading too many salty comments on Northernlion videos."
28:30 Stuck in a loop could have been good with the card meta, but yeah, penny might still be better
33:35 Doesn't the devil room usually appear where the locked room appears, so that means that the secret room have to be there this time.
Also think about this, you can already buy like one third of the items you see in the shop(exluding rerolls) so the currated item will be only slightly above average because everything far above average you buy with the rest of you money
I watch these videos for entertainment, and they always entertain. And then there are people who actually get salty, when he dies and dislike the video because of it. Idiots.
NL, Blood of the martyr ( don't know if i spelled it right) is one of the better damage upgrades because it gives you +2 Damage.
Spiders back at it again with the clutch kill
I can't wait for this guy to finish every greedier unlock. Not because I don't like the mode but because I don't think I can't take any more of this endless cycle of stupid decisions.
Beating Greedier with the Keeper actually isn't too bad. Make sure you have a stockpile of cash when you get into the fight, and every time you get hit and drop coins you can heal.
NL needs to remind himself that "it ain't how hard you can hit; it's about how hard you can get hit..." I think that would keep him alive longer.
Maybe it's me, maybe it's maybaline made my day thank you for that.
Can someone tell NL that pay to play isn't usually a good item for greed mode. At most it will save you 5 cents over the course of the run compared to just buying keys and that it's actually worse to pick it up any later than the caves unless it's on sale.
Also Nl missed out on the book of belial blood of the martyr 1.5x multiplier
I think that in his heart of hearts, NL still believes in key meta, but everybody hated it so much that he had to give it up.
If it makes you feel any better NL, giving good commentary while also trying to dodge enemies and make good decisions on item pick ups that may cascade to something amazing in the future, takes a lot of brain power. Since the human brain is a mono-processor you're switching between those task rapidly
"I see the void, and Im tempted by the void"
Ryan "The nihilistic" Letourneau (2017)
The plethora of shots at the end was from Euthanasia. Also, the item you just unlocked is amazing (eye of belial).
NL is the only person I know who can lose more hearts than he gains from trying to use Maw Of The Void
Hey, great idea! Buy Polydactily with Greed's Pocket right next to it, it's not like they basically do the same thing, but Greed's Pocket it's better!
That champion spider came out of no where and rekt northernlion.
Also brownie is a wizard
ahahahhaahah i like this first 10 min
Last episode, NL tried to get to the second floor.
In this episode, NL tries to get to the second floor.
Next episode, NL tries to get to the second floor.
Wait.. wasn't book of Belial changed so the effect stacks when used multiple times?
I think that's an Antibirth thing.
did anyone else lose their shit when Brownie spazzed out at like 18:30?
I've been in tears for a few minutes.
My volume was a little high after watching another video before moving to this one and I nearly had a heart attack when he yelled after dying the first time
euthenasia gave you the guppys head effect at ultra greed. when the syringe hits an enemy it does that plus lots more damage
If anyone in the world asks you: "yoo why is Northernlion an egghead?"
Just link them this episode.
20:27 blood of the martyr and book of belial, Holy fk i died there (read the items descriptions)
hey nl there is a new loot drop update on enter the gungeon are you planning on playing it on the channel?
NL you can do Keeper and Lost super easily on Greedier by using the clicker... just go until you have an unbeatable run and then reroll into one of those two and win
Egg Fact #3733899
I was gonna say something witty but it escapes me. Not sure if it was gonna be interesting but oh well
->Buys polydacrtyly for extra card room
-> Forgets to buy Pay to play
-> Buys Started deck for extra card room
-> Says he's okay
Congrats on the win though
For the last flippin' time: no key meta was only "working" because you still got keys in alternative means. Those item rooms carried you, on average, WAY more than the items you bought in terms of bang for the buck.
I think Egg is severely overestimating the power of the Bookworm Transformation
Well buyingthe necronomicon also gave him a reroll pedestal, so the transformation itself was essentially free
NL did you say "She had a baby by Buster?" Lol It's Busta, as in Busta Rhymes my dude
I want to see someone smelt all the worm trinkets together
The deterioration of a man
Or egg
The shot you were talking about at the end is Euthanasia.
good ol' eggman, always picking up polydactyly and starter deck, always missing book of belial + blood of the martyr, always taking bad damage, always calling wire coat hanger "torn photo", always wanting to buy pay to play on the caves even though 3 keys is cheaper than 18 cents
this episode should have been titled "rocket man" because Nl's tilted so hard at the start that he reversed gravity and floated into outer space.
And the NL video of 2017 award goes to....
When brownie spazed out I think it was because the haunt crushed him against the wall and the collision went haywire
