      @@art-cs6us I did the math. Sorry your comment made me curious.
      So if Streamline were instead Claw in this deck, not considering the 3 energy altogether per fight. Both upgraded. Claw is 5+2 per play.
      The total damage from claw per cast:
      5,12,21,32,45,60,77,96,117,141,167,196,227,260,295,332.
      Total damage from Streamline per cast:
      20,40,60,80,100,120,140,160,180,200,220,240,260,280,300,320.
      There are 16 Numbers there, because it takes that long for Claw to be better than streamline in the total damage. In the Donu Deca fight (which is immediately after he got his combo to be able to semi-infinate), Baalor played Streamline 13 times. That would be 227 damage for Claw and 260 damage for Streamline.
      So you could say... Baalor in that fight spent 3 energy (over 2 turns) to deal an extra 33 points of damage. That was the difference between claw and streamline in that particular fight. But there are a lot more nuances at work here. I'm just swapping one card for another, which is not how one would play Claw.
      I am not saying Claw is bad, but i am saying Streamline can be just as good as Claw.

    Timestamps for when Baalor picks up the cards and relic in the thumbnail (Recycle, Charge Battery, and Unceasing Top):
    Charge Battery: (43:03)
    Unceasing Top: (1:03:40)
    Recycle: (1:19:50)
    The Defect has no time to focus on orbs in this run, they're too busy giving Unceasing Top some value!

    Opening question: Hyper Beam, Reprogram, Claw (is law), and a lot of similar things can make such a deck tick, especially given the presence of structure cards like Seek, Self Repair, Echo Form, etc

    i think there wasn't an infinite, since with streamline-turbo-void-recycle-block it would require 16 block in a 1cost card to be positive. so something like an upgraded turbo or lots of dexterity would possibly enable it.

    Hear me out: 20:00, buy Impatience, remove strike, upgrade Zap next floor.
    With the Strike removal, you'd have 6/15 cards in the deck that are attacks. But Beam Cell doesn't count because its 0 energy, and Core Surge barely counts because it exhausts. Effectively 4 attacks, all 1 energy. Then you also have Zap, Beam Cell and eventually Dual Cast as zero mana cards that want tons of draw.
    Maybe even take Turbo to get more energy to go with the extra draw from Impatience and double Sweeping Beam.
    Could be the start of very, very strong shenanigans.
    Edit: In hindsight, seems i was right. The early Turbo would let you upgrade it, zero mana Zap is a fair amount of damage in the midgame, and you sorely needed the block. However, not buying Bronze Scales would've hurt on the birds fight and maybe one or two more.
