    One of the problems I see you having with the Witch is having too much low-value equipment. You're at your best when you can combo damage, but when you have four utility spells and two damage spells you just can't do that. You need to invert that number - drop vice grip and fruit bowl/daffodil for damage. That way you don't constantly need to push for specific dice to deal damage and instead can get a steady 10-20 damage a turn and 20-40 with crystal ball.

    @swudurshchurf2386 4 ปีที่แล้ว +23

    By floor 5 of every Spire run, he's asking himself, "what's our win condition in this deck? What do our turns look like?" While this is certainly distilled down a lot from the complexity of Spire, there's as much objectivity in regards to how you play your turns here, and what you build your runs on. He just seems to get a bit too stuck on one thing here, and ends up running with it for the whole game.
    That said, these upper episodes do get a bit complicated. Not too bad, though.

    After much consideration I think that Dicey Dungeons is not a good game for NL. "Completing" the game is his way of ending the series, he does not like 2 of the characters, the witch being the one that requires most consideration for possible actions which is definitely not his strong suit. It's absolutely contrary to his usual "just play quick so the video doesn't go on for too long" mentality.
