    Pro strat for others watching in the future:
    The real advantage of a dash is that it lets you toast enemies chasing you; for instance, while double-dashing you can match the Minotaur's speed, and he will just follow you around the arena eating your dash damage for quite some time. Low risk, high reward.

    For some actual useful advice that he'll never read, The Tier 1 weapon upgrades are the cheapest and most useful (although I think Tier 2 bow is better). The sword especially makes the best use for the upgrades. Both variations are better than base sword right out the gate, and base sword is actually really fun when you invest upgrades in it: the speed boost really helps balance the weapon out and make it feel funner to play.

    I think my biggest complaint with Hades is just how samey a lot of the boons are. I'd have really liked if rarer boons had extra effects, to really differentiate themselves from the lower level versions, and maybe you can just find boons at higher levels. Right now the only time I actually get excited to see a boon is when it's a duo. Plus I'd like to see more interaction between boons. I'd say remove 'boon slots' and make them work together. No more bouncing casts vs festive fog, give me bouncing casts that bounce and make mini fogs. I think the way items interact is what really pushes Isaac to the next level, and it's the reason I found Gungeon so boring. In Gungeon, weapons are the effects. Ya you can get minor changes to how they work, but they're basically always going to act the same.
