    Timestamps for when Baalor picks up the cards in the thumbnail (Defragment and Capacitor):
    [Updated for the new thumbnail. First thumbnail was Rainbow and Defragment, second thumbnail was Recursion and Aggregate.]
    Capacitor: (1:18:33) (Floor 39 Combat)
    Defragment: (2:00:41) (Act 4 Elite)
    All previous timestamps and original comment:

    Rainbow: (1:10:32) (Act 2 Boss)
    Aggregate: (1:50:10) (Act 4 Shop)

    I know you've said before you don't plan to upload the streak losing run to Baalorlord's main channel, but please reconsider! I never watch on Twitch and the intensity / suspense of the run thinking he might lose at any moment had me on the edge of my seat. Knowing I was watching on RUclips ruined a degree of that suspense because I was confident he would win. But if I genuinely don't know if he succeeds before watching it makes it so much more fun to watch!
    Also the wording of "Current rotating streak (before this video): 17" begs the question, is he going to make it to 18 or not? But if you only upload successful runs, then the answer is always yes :(

      @doandiggy День назад +2

      I agree. Even though you can see the loss on Unedited, I appreciate the suspense of main channel streak-ending runs for streaks longer than 10 or 15 or so. I loved it in the record-setting streak a couple years ago, and I think it would be a good practice to revive.

    Small request for whoever is editing your videos: could you have a little image of what each relic does when Baalor is picking a new one? It's a bit hard to follow because I haven't memorized all of them and often he doesn't even hover over the options because he recognizes them by sight.

  • @Pablo360able
    @Pablo360able День назад +1

    I find it interesting how the game limits Focus - or at least has more limited tools for it. In particular, there's usually a ceiling. Dex can scale infinitely with Kunai, Strength with Shuriken or a number of Ironclad cards, but the only ways to get unlimited Focus are Consume + Inserter or Creative AI. As a commenter pointed out, there isn't even a one-turn major Focus buff potion like the Flex and Speed potions.
    (Now that I think about it, Prismatic Shard + anything to make infinite copies of cards + Alchemize can get you infinite Focus on Defect, but then again, infinite copies of cards can get you infinite anything.)

    What if taking max hp with mark of the bloom was beneficial? You have 45 hp and your max is 89. Taking 2 max hp could set you below the threshold for red skull.

    Is the upgrade on Genetic Algorithm more important if you get it early, so you can take maximum advantage of it, or late, so you can make up for lost time?

    • @mckimsinfire
      @mckimsinfire 18 часов назад

      You can even take a GA and upgrade it immediately mid act 3 to make it relevant for the end game. As for early GA, it's already going to block most of the big attacks in late game so it's not worth the upgrade.

    Would be cool if there was a biased cog potion like flex or speed, focus potion seems so good until you think about having to set up orbs and spend turns with them.
    I mean when am I ever worried about Centurion Mystic or single Chosen in the early act 2 to the point of spending ~50g with orbs at my fingertips?
    "Free defragment" is a honeypot I've fallen into more than I care to admit...

    • @Pablo360able
      @Pablo360able День назад

      Focus Potion is very good if you evoke your orbs consistently. Most of the base numerical values on orbs are so small that +2 is a huge proportional difference. But yeah the lack of a "5 temporary Focus" potion is interesting.

    Huh, did you consider that you had Pantograph when you were deciding whether to take the elite right before act 3 boss? because to me at least that meant if you took most of your HP you could recover it all, lower risk than you seemed to be treating it as. Although I can still understand not going for it just because those elites were SPOOKY AS FUCK
