    • @cookiedragon8234
      @cookiedragon8234 6 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      blahthebiste That's a fair point for sure. I just think that a lot of people underrate the upgraded strikes and defends. 9 damage and 8 block are WAY better than 6 and 5, so if you have a decent amount of strikes and defends left in the deck, it's definitely not an easy choice.

    • @blahthebiste7924

    • @zorkan111
      @zorkan111 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Why is Juggernaut a good pick with Metallicize? Metallizice gives you block every turn, which means 3 damage every turn. Juggernaut costs 2 energy, which means It will take 5 turns for Juggernaut+Metallicize to do as much damage as a basic, non-buffed Heavy Strike. That's garbage. Waste of 2 energy.
      You take Juggernaut if you're going for a body slam type of build, i.e. if you've got rage, if you've got iron wave, if you're doing lots of armaments, if you're shrugging off. Metallicize alone and a basic defend here or there doesn't do much for Juggernaut.

  • @RtisticXplosion
    @RtisticXplosion 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey NL, on the second elite you miscalculated the vulnerable damage, it's 50% more not 33% more which would make each 18 damage rampage deal 27 instead, not 24. Minor difference, but might impact in future. For example, that turn you missed 3 damage on that turn plus and extra turn of vulnerability, even though you didn't end up needing it.

  • @iami3rian394
    @iami3rian394 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    The learning is working a bit, now that Austin told him what we've been saying for weeks now.
    If he gets this "slowplay" shit out of his mind, gets some decent valuations (cleave and dagger cards are so overrated for example), and learns that defending isn't just _not_ embarrassing but necessary, he might actually start winning runs.

  • @lecram86
    @lecram86 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    One piece of advice for expensive cards. Imo there are two situations (considering late game mostly) you want to play them or you don't so since they are expensive you either upgrade them asap or you remove them so you don't have a dead card. Why did I said late game? Because Bash I would not remove it initially but I would not upgrade it unless I need it for combos so once you start having a decent deck, bye bye Bash (as an example). And why upgrade them asap? Because since you are paying high you want for it to be the best thing ever otherwise you will end not using them and then you go to option B) it is a dead card.

  • @yaksher
    @yaksher 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @15:50 Huh? Bludgeon might have literally the worst synergy with a strength deck. It only hits once and it costs a lot, so you get 1 application of your strength to your enemy for 3 energy, which is completely terrible for a strength deck compared to even a basic strike. It might be okay anyway, but it synergies with a strength deck ridiculously badly. It would work well in a Snecko Eye deck though.

    • @CinGale2
      @CinGale2 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The Time boss gets stronger every 12 cards you play. It also ends your turn when you play card #12. He wanted to be able to have a bigger range of options on his next turn since he'd already played 6 cards. And if he played the Pommel and the additional 2 cards he drew he would have only been able to play 3 cards before his turn was forced to end.

    • @sanchobanana3507
      @sanchobanana3507 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    • @ChibiRuah
      @ChibiRuah 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yea he over thought it. Thinking that the extra plays would let him go off. IMHO you should play the cards that do something if you have the energy inless they basically do nothing. NL left 4 energy that could have been used. Yes the next turn is weaker but making this turn weaker only make the chance of the next turn to be better.
      That said I don't think that mistake turn the boss fight from winnable to a lost (though in IMHO its a serious misplay).

Who wants an attack that hits for 8 x X damage to all enemies when you have a deck of zero cost cards and ton of card draw anyway?

    I know you still get a lot of comments saying you're misplaying (which you still are, but not so bad anymore) but I think you can try archetypes you haven't done before. I would have liked it if you picked up the immolate at the start and tried to do a wound/curse/exhaust deck, because even though trying to force an archetype right off the start can be dangerous, if you don't like any of your options, might as well try out something new and interesting, and maybe when you're done you'll learn to like one of them.

    NL, please, please, please, when you make choices in this game, stop to think about the math involved. You talk a lot about Magic: the Gathering when you get on the subject of deckbuilders. MtG is all about statistics, because every deckbuilder is. Case in point: upgrade 9 cards, or remove 1 card? Which is better, 9 or 1? There really isn't anything more complicated about it: there's no way that making your deck 1 card thinner will be as good as improving 9 cards, even if you don't use those 9 cards as much, you're guaranteed to have to play them in any fight that lasts longer than a few turns.

      Adriel 'adrftw' Hojberg it's almost like blocking some damage would've helped. Almost like that anyway.
