    Special Thanks to Northernlion for making this vid. Being a Slayer myself, I like hearing opinions on cards, so this was a pleasant surprise. As my favorite internet personality, I hope you continue to provide us with such quality entertainment. You maintain a genuine sense of humility and self-awareness with humor, wit and honesty; All the while keeping fluid, engaging conversation that very few have managed to accomplish to the extent I expect from having listened to your ramblings over the years. I guess the bottom line is: Thanks Northernlion, you've made a difference in my life, kept me sane through hard times... I can't even quantify how much I appreciate the loyalty you show towards the community that has amassed, even through the many unique (and unorthodox) methods of showing their acknowledgement. As far as I'm concerned, you're an invaluable asset to your respective communities, and you stand as the purest example I have found of a person with the proverbial "Gift of gab". Truly, the only egg of his kind. The Egglord.
    Cheers, mate.

    Decided to break this up into sections. Common, Uncommon and Rare, that way it will post in the TH-cam Comments. I had over 10,000 Characters all together, which isn't postable.
    Uncommon Cards
    Battle Trance- 26:52
    Rating- 5/5
    NL Summary- "Best used after playing your other draw cards. Will kill an Artifact. Gets exponentially worse when you have more than 1."
    Blood for Blood- 28:29
    Rating- 4/5
    NL Summary- "Garbage if drawn on first turn. Offering, Blue Candle, Rupture, Hemokinesis makes the card amazing. Awesome damage dealer on long fights."
    Bloodletting- 30:12
    Rating- 2/5
    NL Summary- "Dicey. Doesn't like using cards that cause you to lose HP and don't exhaust. Prefers Seeing Red.
    Burning Pact- 31:08
    Rating- 1/5
    NL Summary- "The previous exhaust cards are better. Underates draw."
    Carnage- 31:41
    Rating- 3/5 bordering 4/5
    NL Summary- "Likes the card. Amazing early game, great at taking out Lagavulin, obelisks, and good on bosses.
    Combust- 32:32
    Rating- 1/5 without Rupture, 2/5 with Rupture.
    NL Summary- "Situational. Rupture makes it better. Good for the Obelisks, and birds on the second floor."
    Corruption- 33:14
    Rating- 2/5 or 5/5
    NL Summary- Upside much of your deck will cost 0. If you can get benefit for exhausting even better. Downside it takes up a whole turn to play it. With Dead Branch obvious take. Rarely takes Corruption without Dead Branch."
    Disarm- 34:50
    Rating- 4/5
    NL Summary- "Bodies Guardian and Hexaghost. As well as the Book of Stabbing.
    Dropkick- 36:01

    Dual Wield- 36:28
    Rating- 2/5, or 4/5 if you have 0 cost attacks or a staggering amount of energy.
    NL Summary- "Situational. Is a 2 most of the time."
    Entrench- 38:04
    Rating- 1/5, or 5/5 if you are rolling barricade, or good blocks and calipers.
    NL Summary- "Early, since it costs 2 it is horrible. At 1 energy it is good enough.
    Evolve- 39:40
    Rating- 4/5
    NL Summary- "Great on 1st Floor, makes Obelisks a joke. Works great against the Hexaghost. Great with Immolate.
    Feel No Pain- 40:48
    Rating- 3/5
    NL Summary- "Free win against the Obelisk. Likes it a little worse than Evolve. Works well with Corruption, and Juggernaut."
    Fire Breathing- 41:36
    Rating- 0/5
    NL Summary- "Never takes it. Complete Trash." :LUL:
    Flame Barrier- 43:09
    Rating- 4/5, might even be a 5/5
    NL Summary- "Takes it every time it pops up, especially early. Upgraded it is insanely great. Block of 2 Shrugs, and the damage of 2x basic Caltrops or Bronze Scales. Bodies the birds."
    Ghostly Armor- 43:50
    Rating- 4/5
    NL Summary- "Reliable source of cheap block. Good early."
    Hemokinesis- 44:20
    Rating- 2/5 without Rupture, 3/5 with Rupture possible 4/5
    NL Summary- "Wouldn't be his first choice, but it isn't bad."
    Infernal Blade- 45:07
    Rating- 4/5
    NL Summary- "Takes it often times. Ability to get an attack for 0 is good. Upgraded insanely good. Bad if you draw, Drop Kick, or Wild Strike. Great if you draw Immolate, Bludgeon, Perfected Strike, or Heavy Blade. Can make your deck better for the rest of the fight."
    Inflame- 46:17
    Rating- 2/5
    NL Summary- "Maybe a little better if you building a strength focused deck."
    Intimidate- 46:38
    Rating- 3/5
    NL Summary- "Worst case scenario you purge all artifacts from enemies, would rather have a trip."
    Metallicize- 47:14
    Rating- 2/5
    NL Summary- "Doesn't really like it. Tends to not have good success with Metallicize. Better with Juggernaut."
    Power Through- 48:38
    Rating- 2/5
    NL Summary- "A little better with Evolve. Fiend Fire or Sever Soul will help remove the wounds. Sometimes the block is needed."
    Pummel- 49:15
    Rating- 3/5, 4/5 with Strength, 5/5 with Demon Form
    NL Summary- "Not really taken early, however if it is take a Flex or Inflame or something. More of a late game enabler."
    Rage- 50:12
    Rating- 5/5, possible 6/5 if you have 0 cost attacks
    NL Summary- "With Juggernaut it is perfect. Disgustingly good. Only downside is if you draw it when the enemy is not attacking. It costs 0 regardless though."
    Rampage- 51:14
    Rating- 2/5
    NL Summary- "Can't really make his deck thin enough, and draw enough to make it work. Would prefer to take another option."
    Reckless Charge- 51:57
    Rating- 1/5
    NL Summary- "Better with Feel No Pain or Evolve. Never takes it."
    Rupture- 52:10
    Rating- 3/5
    NL Summary- "Enables Offering, JAX, Hemokinesis, some Curses like Pain. Try to get something that gives you HP back. (Reaper)"
    Searing Blow- 53:05
    Rating- 2/5, sometimes a 1/5, sometimes a 3/5
    NL Summary- "Requires too many upgrades on high ascensions to make it viable. Searing Blow on Nonascensions is fun."
    Second Wind- 54:06
    Rating- 2/5
    NL Summary- "Confused about it. Doesn't take it often."
    Seeing Red- 54:48
    Rating- 5/5
    NL Summary- "Downside takes up a spot in your hand. Helps getting high cost Powers out."
    Sentinel- 55:37

    Sever Soul- 56:09
    Rating- 3/5
    NL Summary- "Early on reliable damage source."
    Shockwave- 56:28
    Rating- 3/5
    NL Summary- "Blown out by 2 or more artifact enemies. Buys a lot of time on elites. Valuable AoE."
    Spot Weakness- 57:51
    Rating- 2/5
    NL Summary- "If you can reuse it with Headbutt and draw, but usually a bit too slow."
    Uppercut- 58:26
    Rating- 4/5 Unupgraded, 5/5 Upgraded
    NL Summary- "Gets better with Necronomicon, damage a little underwhelming. Better Bash. Takes it almost every time it shows up."
    Whirlwind- 59:24
    Rating- 4/5
    NL Summary- "AoE is very important, would at least take one everytime it shows up. Downside it is an X card, which can be good and bad. Good against weak first floor enemies and birds, not so great at bosses."
    Rare Cards
    Barricade- 1:00:07

    Fiend Fire- 1:04:44

    Immolate- 1:05:06
    Rating- 5/5 or even 6/5
    NL Summary- "Favorite card to see early game. You will probably cruise through the first floor. Bodies most of the first floor. You won't see the downside unless it becomes a long fight, even then the burns are not too bad to deal with. Immolate + Headbutt = Beaten 1st Floor."
    Impervious- 1:06:06
    Rating- 3/5, 5/5 with Barricade
    NL Summary- "Good enough."
    Juggernaut- 1:06:34
    Rating- 2/5 or 3/5

    NL Summary- "Getting it as a reward when you start your run, it is a dead card.
    Offering- 1:08:08

    Reaper- 1:08:46
    Rating- 3/5, sometimes 4/5, sometimes 5/5

I also really don't mind the length of the video - the opposite even: I enjoy the more more deeper look into the combinations and uses of these cards and when or when not to take them. I am looking forward to see this kind of video for the other classes/ cards as well and really hope you don't get turned down due to the time it takes to make these.

    Headbutt is a 5/5 because it can be used to get Entrench or Limit Break every turn, driving your defense and strength up to absurd levels. And even without that combo it retains a stunning level of versatility, with the damage just being a bonus. In particular its good witg Barricade/Entrench at which point it makes you basically invincible.

    I think NL rates the majority of cards pretty accurately, but he does seem to underrate some cards such as Pommel Strike, Thunderclap, Metallicize and Offering. I don't think he overrates that many cards although Clash comes to mind, any enemies that gives you a status card, or any curse, or even some of the Ironclads own cards can severely impact cleave and at best make it inconsistent. Clash is only really good in very specific decks that build around it and have a good way to deal with status effects.

    @CrymsynMoon 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    All in all most of the rating weren't too bad. Most cards weren't far off, and the ones that were I can sort of attribute to preference (either NL's or mine).
    Havoc got a bit shafted. More so than the exhaust synergies, the value comes from being able to play your expensive cards for free. The Ironclad has so many high cost powers and attacks, and cards like Headbutt and Warcry give you the means to select your target. Nothing makes Bludgeon or Demon Form pop quite like being played for 0.
    This falls under a matter of preference, but it still irks me he rates Hemokinesis higher than Wild Strike. Having to maybe deal with a Wound later on is so preferable to outright losing hp.
