And from my reaction, you can tell how stressful it was getting. Rarran reaction: "Man this is getting stressful" Truly a master of story based cinematography.
I LITERALLY died coughing when at the start of ascension 20 you was like "i was confident ill even do it on my first try" and i was like even if he doesnt i guess the video is almost over. I look at the timer and not even halfway done the video 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Rarran : "After my fantastic win on Ascension 19, I was very confident that I could easily beat Ascension 20 on my very first try." Also Rarran, probably : *Don't look at the runtime. Don't look at the runtime. Don't look at the runtime. Don't look at the runtime. Don't look at the runtime. Don't look at the runtime.*
The hardest challenge is not to pick up Mark of the Bloom/Neow's lament/Golden Idol/give curse to bonfire spirits/click through scrap ooze or read cursed book during "no relic" achievement run
When I was working my way through a20 on all chars, I hit a massive wall with the silent and then an even bigger one on the defect. Defect is such a weird character that they almost seem like they’re from another game lmao. And then I played Watcher and realized that the Watcher is so op that a20 watcher was easier than a10 on other characters lol. StS is super fun, glad you enjoyed the game.
I used to think Watcher was very hard because she required a lot more thinking and maths than other characters. Then I watched Frost Prime. Needless to say, nowadays I agree with you completely, the character's foken OP
@@sallomon2357If you try to play slow and do wacky combos on the Watcher she is in fact super difficult. However if f you just remember that you have lethal and maximise how often you go in and out of wrath she is so strong
Defect is iconsistent in a frustrating way. It's difficult to beat a run without any sort if frost generation, so if you don't get offered any you die in act 2
Thoughts on Ironclad difficulty? I recently started playing and I was initially planning to gradually work my way up ascensions with ALL characters... Then I kinda felt that sticking to just one of them is better to actually learn how to make proper decks for the char
Really enjoyed watching this live, was fun seeing someone else become addicted to this game. I've purchased it 3 times (steam, iOS, and Nintendo switch) and have no regrets.
Dude hell yeah! I just watched frost primes pov of this a20 run just yesterday and I'm so freaking hyped rn. Grats on beating this challenge and I'm so glad you had so much fun doing it
I happened to be free to watch your stream when you got frost to coach you and that was a truly fantastic run, gg ram ranch you got there (also if you haven't watched the VOD the whole run was fantastic commentary between the 2 of them and i genuinely suggest giving it a watch) You're the king of Hearthstone AND the Spire now
I didn’t expect a whole story arc within a video. Definitely cooked with this one, I love seeing more Slay The Spire content on your channel. I didn’t watch the Ascension climb livestream,it was really funny seeing you die to bombs (a.k.a Exploded for 30 dmg) because we’ve all died once to it at some point.
this is SUCH a fantastic fucking video. well-paced, well-edited. the final battle against the heart was nail biting. also your interactions with the other guy were really funny
This definitely makes me respect NL even more then already. This was insane to watch in a condensed video. Good job and yeah I stopped at A17 and haven't picked it back up...until now 😂
I saw frost videos on the weekend. It amazed me how your mistakes and noob traps were almost the same I had. Same with good cards that seem bad (like the importance of "strike pluses" to survive early elites). This, applied to balatro (jokers), hearthstone, gwent, etc is what makes me love card games: Noob traps and cards with disgusting value that is hard to see.
The important thing to remember about the ascension grind is that not every run in slay the spire is possible to beat. I've done all the characters on A20 now and it gets really frustrating on the 11th loss in a row with defect not getting halfway through act 2
I was hoping you'd go on to convert all the knowledge from the assisted run to get a kill all on your own as well but even with the help it's a very impressive feat. Good job!
What's great about the prismatic shard take on the frost run, that shit was a sub goal. Frost had a sub goal to convince him it was good and it actually panned out lmao
Funny thing about Ascension mode is that Ascension level 1 is actually easier because the extra elites give you extra relics. I found Silent to be easiest as you can either go infinite shivs with after image for infinite damage and block or stack infinite amounts of poison.
Reliving STS through you was fun. When I read the title and heard you say, "the hardest challenge", I had literally forgot there were ascention levels before 20, and thought you were going to do a challenge run 😂
I usually just watch hearthstone on your channel , but I thought to myself , If I just click & see the video give it a chance and i'm so glad I did, this game is so cool!
"I'm not even good at the game" - proceeds to absolutely fly through all the ascensions while I legit cannot beat the normal difficulty a single time after 15 hours
Holy moly. I never played Slay the Spire before but you know shit is about to hit the fan when you're already at Ascension 16 and only 16 minutes into the video. Very nice video, now do Darkest Dungeon 2 Grand Slam ^^
So I don't know if it matters too much, but I think that since you hadn't unlocked all cards for all classes, prismatic shard was an even worse relic than you thought, the other classes good cards being unavailable and all.
After playing Slay The Spire myself I can confidently say that Shivs are op and it doesn’t matter if it is time keeper you can still win with a shiv build
I enjoyed the video, but I thought the A20 Heart kill with Frost Prime to be anti-climatic. It's kinda like getting to a final boss in an MMORPG and then having your over-leveled friend beat it for you. Would love to see you beat the heart on your own with a different character.
I kinda agree but Frost explicitly didn’t guide him too much (more just explaining mechanics that you could look up anyway), like he let Rarran fuck up without stopping him and then let him bail himself out. That being said would be cool to see a solo A20 heart kill
my hardest challenge in slay the spire is the archivement of winning with one relic because i always forget and i pick up a relic at some point of the run😭
And from my reaction, you can tell how stressful it was getting.
Rarran reaction: "Man this is getting stressful"
Truly a master of story based cinematography.
"You can't have your characters anounce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!"
Whoa who’s that hot professor teaching you 😳
AYO WHO IS THIS 😳
Balatro be ballin'
Do more content together this is good shit
Is this just your new job description, teaching other streamers how to play the game
Get rarran to teach you to play hearthstone
800 hours, all achievements, all a20 + heart killed on each and i still love this game, thanks for bringing more love to sts, cant wait for sts 2
I thought you were Kripp for a second then 😅
Seeing Raran hit Ascension 20, check the timer, there's still over half the video left… Yeah this is going to be fun.
I LITERALLY died coughing when at the start of ascension 20 you was like "i was confident ill even do it on my first try" and i was like even if he doesnt i guess the video is almost over. I look at the timer and not even halfway done the video 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That got me as well haha
Praying this video will become viral so we see more of this content
Me too dude :)
@@Rarran Saw the Frostprime Video already! Think its great to see two of my fav Content Creators collabing. Now just get Roffle in there :)
@@Rarranyou CAN escape hearthstone prison I believe in you
@@Kevmoeman in my mind he already has. I see him as a card game player
@@lolreadthis saw it live, watched both parts by Frost, and now this. peak content right here
Rarran : "After my fantastic win on Ascension 19, I was very confident that I could easily beat Ascension 20 on my very first try."
Also Rarran, probably : *Don't look at the runtime. Don't look at the runtime. Don't look at the runtime. Don't look at the runtime. Don't look at the runtime. Don't look at the runtime.*
He definitely did A1-19 in 26 hours, that was real impressive.
Did it take longer? And is the timere way off
@@kazboven9744no it was fair .
Him using all those shivs at the end and melting his hp made my heart drop so fast so hard
The hardest challenge is not to pick up Mark of the Bloom/Neow's lament/Golden Idol/give curse to bonfire spirits/click through scrap ooze or read cursed book during "no relic" achievement run
And not transforming cards on "Common sense" achievement run

Still need the android version
@@svgPhoenix there is i have an andriod. The game is just in the premium shop on Google play store
@svgPhoenix ??? Bro I have 100 hours on the android version?? It's been a thing for like, years
Dude hell yeah! I just watched frost primes pov of this a20 run just yesterday and I'm so freaking hyped rn. Grats on beating this challenge and I'm so glad you had so much fun doing it
This is SO much footage to go through and edit so heavily, props to the editor for putting this together!
"How I Beat Slay the Spire's Hardest Challenge" I got the best player to beat it for me, lol
I happened to be free to watch your stream when you got frost to coach you and that was a truly fantastic run, gg ram ranch you got there (also if you haven't watched the VOD the whole run was fantastic commentary between the 2 of them and i genuinely suggest giving it a watch)
You're the king of Hearthstone AND the Spire now
*hits a20*
"I think I can do this on my first try."
*checks time stamp*
*not even half way through the video*
Love seeing you play other card games and doing other forms of content : )
Shivved up to the gills on a Friday night
I didn’t expect a whole story arc within a video.
Definitely cooked with this one, I love seeing more Slay The Spire content on your channel.
I didn’t watch the Ascension climb livestream,it was really funny seeing you die to bombs (a.k.a Exploded for 30 dmg) because we’ve all died once to it at some point.
incredible vid, did not see the time fly by !
Slay the spire is pog, I hope to see more from it !
You guys have such awesome chemistry i was blushing and giggling the whole time. Do more of this!!
Lets go man, started following the streams to watch this develop, very very entertaining, congrats, waiting on the other characters now!
@19:55 That edit was hilarious LOL
this is easily one of the best videos you have made recently
this is SUCH a fantastic fucking video. well-paced, well-edited. the final battle against the heart was nail biting. also your interactions with the other guy were really funny
This definitely makes me respect NL even more then already. This was insane to watch in a condensed video. Good job and yeah I stopped at A17 and haven't picked it back up...until now 😂
Saw this run from both sides. Both videos bangers. And even though I knew how it ended it was a thrill to watch.
Let's GO Rar Man! Would love to see the Gigachad Ironclad A20 push next!!
Awesome video. I watched Frost's streams of teaching you so it was cool to see your A1-19 climb as well
Amazing video. Got to watching some FrostPrime videos after this, some more collabs would be a banger.
Absolute banger video, hoping it pops off so we can get more long video treats in the future!
Great video! I can't wait to see more slay the spire content along the hearthstone stuff. Love your editing and videos Rarran keep it up.
These streams were so fun, the Ironclad grind has been too. I really hope there's more STS content in the future!
My man Rarran, I miss watching your Slay the Spire streams already - do more!!!
really nice video rarran hope you ll make more content like this in the future you gave off such vibes in there .
Great Video! Love to see you branching out into more card games
Watched both of you guy's videos, they're both amazing! Great job
I saw frost videos on the weekend.

Amazing achievement and great video! Frost Prime was a snack also
Oh yeah, it's edging time.
Edge until he uses a discard build
Rarran didnt lie when he said that video would be fire.
I was hoping you'd go on to convert all the knowledge from the assisted run to get a kill all on your own as well but even with the help it's a very impressive feat. Good job!
Had to bring in the expert! Love to see the collab and even cooler to see him coach you through!

Frost and Rarran is an amazing combination.
Big fan of more STS!

Sooo happy you're playing this!!!
FROST IN MY RARRAN VIDEO? I never knew i needed this crossover
Congrats Rarran! Great vid!
Awesome video! Excited to see more of this
Editing on this one is complete fire
I feel like this might be Rarrans new favourite video
"I'm not even good at the game" - proceeds to absolutely fly through all the ascensions while I legit cannot beat the normal difficulty a single time after 15 hours
I constantly save close and rebegin levels in this game to avoid death when I can. God I love this game.
That slaver-nob colosseum fight is always rough. Got to have some good engine start and early damage!
Holy moly. I never played Slay the Spire before but you know shit is about to hit the fan when you're already at Ascension 16 and only 16 minutes into the video.
Very nice video, now do Darkest Dungeon 2 Grand Slam ^^
I've never played this game before but has me intrigued now good video ram ranch
So I don't know if it matters too much, but I think that since you hadn't unlocked all cards for all classes, prismatic shard was an even worse relic than you thought, the other classes good cards being unavailable and all.
Wow BigDeck Rarran branching out from his kids ard game to a teen card game. This is what i call growth, you could really slay my spire!
I would love to see more colabs with frostprime yall have great synergy together.
Great content mr. Rarran! Keep playing STS or expand into more games. Ill make sure click the videos and click the like button xd😂
Rarran: a20 is slay the spires hardest challenge
Lifecoah doing 50 consecutive a20 victories with each character: am I joke to you?
The frost prime collab had me so excited
I wish there was a bit of more time after the video to enjoy what you accomplished, it ends so abruptly ! Anyways, loved the video regardless :)
Came from FrostPrime and not regretting it. Great content.
i have now watched the Frost Prime collab 3 times, worth it
4:00 London build
Ascension:17
Minute:17
But the video length is 53 minutes.
Oh oh I sense trouble...
Nvm rarran is the GOAT
Actual crazy vid, good shit rarran
Love your work, Rarran!
3 hours of the Silent run with Frost wasn't enough. The youtube frogs hunger.
That pass over tungsten rod hurt my insides
Rattan I watch all of the runs on stream and I loved all of it I hope you do some more slay the spire stuff and thanks for making some fun stuff
Oops it auto corrected
The suspence on the heart kill was something else though.
Loved this video. What a great ride
Have you tried Tainted Grail?
It's somewhat similar to STS, I think you would enjoy that too
After playing Slay The Spire myself I can confidently say that Shivs are op and it doesn’t matter if it is time keeper you can still win with a shiv build
Banger video. I enjoyed the streams as well
Good video and hope it does good love you buddy
im so happy i could watch some of this life. love it
14:05 my god that's unlucky lmao!!! soo painful :D
Very good video
Didn’t realize you could go up in ascensions without having battled the heart each time.
Holy moley, congrats on that win!
“Wow, he got to ascention 20. He’s doing pretty well! … wait, why is there half an hour of video left?”
Sts, rarran aaaand frost I can die happy now. Also comment for algo, seen variation of the run(s) now like 3-4 times 😂 also sick freaking editing
Im on the edge of liking
and I'm Hangin' on the play next button
I enjoyed the video, but I thought the A20 Heart kill with Frost Prime to be anti-climatic. It's kinda like getting to a final boss in an MMORPG and then having your over-leveled friend beat it for you. Would love to see you beat the heart on your own with a different character.
I kinda agree but Frost explicitly didn’t guide him too much (more just explaining mechanics that you could look up anyway), like he let Rarran fuck up without stopping him and then let him bail himself out.
That being said would be cool to see a solo A20 heart kill
Great video Mr. Rarran!
The end was phenomenal
Cutting the fact that the prismatic shard was just because Frost had a sub goal is very funny
Bro, I was like "my boy is cruising, this will be done in no time", then check that I'm only on minute 13 of an hour long video 😂
Rename the video “how I let a pro choose everything so I could beat the A20 heart”
my hardest challenge in slay the spire is the archivement of winning with one relic because i always forget and i pick up a relic at some point of the run😭
Amazing stuff, STS is such an awesome game!
