Taking a choke and then refusing all the numerous shiv cards
You hate to see it
I can almost understand some of the passes, almost. Infinite blades though... Blade dance... He just doesn't have any idea what's going on around him.
Especially with the kunai 🤷♂️
@@vietrofl he's a fucking dope. That's what it comes down to.
This just asks for a Genius meme:
Takes Choke
Skips all the shiv related and 0 cost cards.
12:42 - Please, my egg... - etc. etc.
Embarrassing.
*has 16 block with 15 damage in coming*
"We might as well take 0"
*plays another defend instead of attacking*
Everytime i see an error in NL's play i check comments and there's always a sperg in the top 3 pointing it out
@@thehubbabubba667 ain't gonna get better if he's not being held accountable to miss-plays. Who's worse, the person who points out the miss-play or the "sperg" who intentionally goes into the comments to get triggered by someone pointing it out?
@@thehubbabubba667 if even YOU see it, there's OBVIOUSLY a problem.
@@iami3rian394 Not gonna lie, my brain just ignores the blue ats on comments these days and my first pass of this comment was basically 'Wait, did @IamI3rian just say that if even Steejo sees the miss-plays it must be obvious?'
That being said, Steejo hits the nail on the head. Comments about the miss-plays are affectionate ribbing from fans who love the egg. These are just people out here trying to make NL see that he's constantly screwing up in the hopes that he actually... y'know... improves.
Speaking of looking up... Just do the math on chokes damage/energy on the average floor one turn. It is NOT perfected strike. Choke need a deck built around it or loads of energy and draw. Otherwise, it's pretty trash...
Yeah, shivs might be the simplest way to make it work. Weird thing, NL usually likes shivs and shoves them in most decks, but this time, with Choke, he actually avoided them...Weird...
@@astrumrocket6556 Yeah...he doesn't seem to really think about what it takes to make Choke work, and just likes it because he can get damage off blocking.
@@Avoncarstien I noticed that, he tends to do things on autopilot, and if he has an idea that he's playing a certain "archetype" he will avoid anything that might fall into another archetype, doesn't matter if it works or not.
@@Avoncarstien he HATES blocking.
@@astrumrocket6556 he doesn't understand the game. YET. He doesn't realize that you ask yourself if it's better to have a card, or not have a card, not if it's "agnostically" good.
Nightmare with a high damage Ritual Dagger is really good Late Game
Curses?
There will be no hecks, fricks, or dangs on this good Christian egg channel.
This fucking killed me
What about dang
@@dudebro3944 Bro.
Bro why :(
WHY BRO!
@@penguindrummer252 Oh no...
I guess dang is actually the least christian word out of all of these so that was a dumb question
Am I nuts for thinking that NL prioritizing removing Clumsy so much was a huge mistake? It cost him Noxious on a poison run.
Nope. The ONLY cards he ever removes are curses, and no matter WHAT he must remove them all.
It’s really fun watching him take choke and then ignoring cards that synergize with it like cloak and dagger
Takes deflects instead of attacks, "We lack damage"...
Loves choke, ignores Blade Dance and Cloak and Dagger...
Don't ever tell him the math.
4:45 YOU COWARD
Sees video length: Oh.
Sees he plays the Silent: God.
See the title "Curses": Why?
A child cries every time NL takes prepared/heel hook. Pls egg
It hurts because we spent three months explaining why prepared is a bad card. He just STILL doesn't understand why it's the biggest n00btrap in the game.
@@iami3rian394 That's why I have been saying he specifically needs coaching with SIlent. The others are simple enough characters that a lucky run will give even him an a20 win. That will never happen with the silent
Isn't the only "full HP relic" Lee's Waffle, and it's shop exclusive?
That apparently depends on who you ask.
4:40 if he doesnt test it im gonna riot
actually so disappointed in NL right now
It totally works too. I hate to be " that guy" but that one hurt
He had nothing to lose by trying it and still....choked.
Curious.. What do ppl think of nl removing the curse in the third run? I don't really think an ethereal curse is worth spending gold on removing. At least not so early, when you can spend it on getting better cards.
26:00 I guess there's no clear way in game to realize that Lee's Waffle is a shop-only relic.
No, you actually have to know what you're doing...
I think you can actually see it in the compendium.
@@joelbennett0629 lol, implying NL has ever read the screen.
Highest Lose streak: 257
Highest Win Streak: 1 (ep. 449/570 Defect) (ep. 568 Ironclad)
Current Streak: 9 losses
Total Losses 281+
Ironclad 94+
Silent 99+
Defect 88+
Total wins
Ironclad 1+
Silent 0+
Defect 2+
wtf is this 2 defect wins? he's only won once on camera on a20 for each and if we're counting off camera wins the ironclad has 2 as well. stop being so inconsistent with your stats.
@@Th3NinjaSnowman "so inconsistent" bruh he has extremely accurate stats. No one asked him to do this, he's just an absolute madman, bless his soul. The "win" on episode 449 is from NL's win as the defect off camera, mentioned at the beginning of the episode. You could argue if it deserves to be in the scoreboard, I personally think only on camera wins should be recorded because who knows how many off camera loses our deviled egg has. But all that aside, my man's doing the lord's work and he deserves respect
Is this gonna be a Doovoo Doll typa run?
Edit: No, it's just gonna suck. A lot
Personal achievement... from the brinks of the low 300's he's pulled it back, up to date with the most recent NL Spire upload. A holiday in Greece Sneko'd my run but I've found extra energy and got up to speed
NL, unceasing top is like the ONLY time you almost autotake flying knee. You FINALLY skip it the single time you shouldn't.
you have no life

That dang old slime boss
Not sure which is more insane NL's goal to beat this or this comments section still trying to help after 500 episodes. Just strap in for the ride. If he needs help he'll ask.
That's fundamentally incorrect.
He BLATANTLY needs help, yet doesn't seek it out or ask for it.
Your statement is a lie, mate.
He's needed help for 500 episodes
Why is Sucker Punch a better upgrade than Neutralize? Unlike Sucker Punch that gives you 1 more damage if upgraded, you can ALWAYS play Neutralize, which means higher efficacy of the upgrade.
Yes but the damage from sucker punch+ is a hundred times better against lagavulin and gremlin nob.
It becomes a different matter if you're smithing in front of the boss but the damage is also nice for those.
And you get one more weak turn as well which is a bigger deal than the 2 damage for either card.
Today's run was indeed very cursed with the draws, gosh how did this happened
my favorite combo with nightmare was Nightmare Backstab and kunai. Turn 2 was always 1dex up, and 33 damage at the very least
Nightmare is one of those cards that I think is really underrated. It's hard to get out there, and the energy base to make good use of it is very high, but if you can make it work it will straight up win runs
Nightmare + upgraded Wraith Form = 12 turns of invincibility
Nightmare + upgraded Noxious Fumes = 12 extra poison every turn completely passively
Just a few examples
@@EvanWantsSoup except literally no one but NL under rates it, so yeah.
It's not under rated like, at all.
@@iami3rian394 I've seen quite a few people in his comments section underrate it, but I dont really browse the subreddit so I wouldnt know I guess
@@EvanWantsSoup I certainly haven't, and I've been reading every comment on every StS video for well over a year now.
@@iami3rian394 .. okay, I just made it up then
This didn't show up in my subscriptions feed and I had to go to NL's channel to find it. :(
I mean, it's literally posted 4 minutes before you commented, the feed could easily have just skipped a refresh cycle.
I'm 7 minutes after it was posted and it was in my feed, but took a few refreshes to see it posted on my phone for example.
TH-cam just can't keep up with our favourite Canadian man.
Also. Usually pick predator over Choker or most 1 cost attacks, if you can upgrade it soonish.
20 + 2 cards next turn is very useful early to be sure you have always 2-3 right cards for the situation. With Well laid Plan it just makes manipulation so good, with big hands to deal with nd lots of options.
Choker is more of a "there's nothing else I need damage", or kinda forced semi-infinite/shivs. Usually poison will bury them all.
Skewer + can be quite ok, especially if you can land the X bottle relic. Works for Doppleganger and Malaise too.
Silent is the only one I can consistently get to act 3 boss. It's really a good character for that With its crazy defense and poison.
Why the hell take choke if you skip every enabler...you literally just treat like two strikes
If it's not obvious by now that he has no idea what he's doing....
Nightmare + Adrenaline

6:29 bless you
Y-yeah the run was cursed and you didn't just misplay
Multiple missplays but he was fucked either way. Doesn't invalidate them but neither does it invalidate the "cursed" thing. There was no winning there.
He's just an egg and this run is a Nightmare
Why does he always try to force an archetype and never follow through...
The game plan: Draw a defend every turn
Get Silent coaching Egg :O
Hey NL, I'm not saying this was the best option, but if i got nightmare before the run started, i wouldhave tried to remove a bunch of cards early, get heel hook or flash of steel and try to go infinite
In fact I'm sure it's the wrong option because there's a 2/3rd chance that you'll fight the time eater on A20, but it could been fun
I don't think he's dabbled in infinte loops yet.
Heck I don't think he's even considered going for one on camera so there's a good chance it's a totally new can of worms for him.
Not judging him for it it's a very different approach to the game and now that the series might be drawing closer to its end I'd say it makes sense for him to stick to his guns.
Though dying to time eater wasn't really a concern in this video because act 3 was but a distant dream
@@penguindrummer252 he's bad, and will never be good. I mean, that's what it all boils down to here, isn't it?
@@iami3rian394 I have to admit that I haven't given infinite decks a shot myself
@@penguindrummer252 really? Even with the Defect?
They're SUPER fun, but it quickly gets boring and you feel like you're just clicking for the sake of clicking. It becomes apparent, that you've already won well before the end of act 2.
I seriously think he's overdoing it going for so many elites on the first floor with the Silent. The Nob is such a pain in the rear given how much of the silent's good damage is skill-based. I think he'd be a bit better off playing it slightly safer and perhaps going for it more on floor 2 elites when he's stronger.
Disagree. Short of a already good deck by luck with basic room fights and "?", you need those elite to even have a consistent shot at the first floor boss. But he needs to value attack cards (non skill cards, really) slightly higher than he is valueing them now in the first few rooms in order to prep for the goblin fight.
Yea i think he pretty much never prepares for goblin. He's aware there's a chance to fight him when he goes for elites, but it feels like he paths as many question marks as possible early so he doesn't get as many card options
@@Berilith yup, and this is why he failed for 550+ episodes with everyone else. He LUCKED into the defect win, he's gonna luck into the silent as well.
Triple catalyst is his only chance. He just CANNOT build a deck.
I like how NL thinks he has done the difficult challenge once he finally wins A20 with all characters. When ya gonna do the A20 heart runs, eggboi?
He's commented on the fact it exists, and he said he's not going to do it :p
He'd never, EVER build a deck to do it, and it's nearly impossible to luck into an A20 heart win.
Especially when the wins were lucky runs on simpler characters
@@OhNoTheFace his ironclad run was anything but lucky.
RNG played a part, for sure, but charging the four elites in act 4 v taking the easy path, AND taking black star were all active choices.
That's not luck, that's how you play a deckbuilder.
16:40 "I dunno why I was so concerned that that turn was gonna be horrible..."
It's because you don't plan, and can't add.
you have no life
@@Biosquid239 I appreciate your work brother.
@@Bannerman1903 thank
@@Biosquid239 no, u.
@@Biosquid239 no u.
I like to see people dying in asc20 so I can understand why and maybe apply some of it to my runs.
But :
- picks prepared, how many Deflect...
"I need damage."
Picking Deflect early isn't useful at all and even later it's not the most exciting card.
Prepared is MUCH worse, so there's that. You draw prepared, then with prepared you remove a card and pick a new one, that's -1 card draw. Useless without some really strong discard run that probably rarely happens in Asc20.
these little misplay are back...
not playing slime, blocking for no reason..... etc
NL come on!
You seem surprised.
@@iami3rian394 Some assumed him finding carry games means he was getting better :P
Oof bad luck all around NL. I think slime boss is your worst first floor boss it seems.
Bad luck had nothing to do with it :P
Watching Dan Gheesling today, I guess.
you have no life
@@Biosquid239 Seriously XD
@@Biosquid239 no, u.
lol
Floor four, Jesus NL, do some fucking math.
runs choke deck, wont retain 0 cost cards on boss battle
Stop taking chokee
"...and I'll accept taking ten damage this turn."
"Whah! Why do I LOSE every game?"
Can't imagine why, NL. It's a brain teaser for sure.
EDIT: "Taking seven damage, [to end the fight one turn sooner] it's not good, but it's not that bad."
You do this EVERY FIGHT NL.
Jesus man, you ACTUALLY RNG'd your way to A20, huh?
EDIT: seconds before losing to the slime boss: "I'm gonna CHOOSE to take 20 damage..."
I just, I mean holy SHIT how is it even possible?
you have no life
Just unsub and fuck off already, this is so pathetic
@@layluubelle +1
Please stop taking Choke ffs
You are overrating choke
First
What the F*** is "smoothing the deck out?"
Jesus, it took 250+ episodes to teach him prepared was a n00btrap, and yet, here we are, back to day one meta.
can you and your billion comments per video chill the fuck down?
@@taham33 Can he not make the same mistakes for 500 episodes?
@@OhNoTheFace that's a fine criticism of NL's play but iambrian's comments are overly aggressive and unnecessarily disparaging; if you aren't enjoying the episodes, which their comments would point to, there is no good reason to keep watching them
@CamTheKitty You can point out mistakes without being a garbage fire of a person
Mi point exactly
didnt know people still watched these :/ time for some new content on this channel
He's not improving, so I'm inclined to agree.
He thinks at the speed of erosion.
