Speaking of probabilities, I got to 95% on the scrap ooze event. Didn't even get to see if I got the relic because it would have killed me, and it was the first event on a Neows Lament start
Ngl, I much prefer A19 over A20. On A20 you're incentivized to "generalize" your deck more to handle the unknown second Act 3 boss, so you're less able to lean into an OP synergy.
@SkilledTadpole Almost there bud. 273 hrs and counts and I've gotten this far. I'm hoping I don't take long getting and betting it. Wanna do sub 300 hrs. Will update soon.
@@SkilledTadpole you still can - it just has to be more OP so that it can scale faster than the boss punishes you. Defect powers if done correctly can quickly overpower awakened one w frost orbs + buffers Silent shivs can survive time eater with some sort of strength buff to make each shiv deal at least 10 damage - accuracies, phantasmal, terror, and perhaps other stuff i'm forgetting. Also would need a damage mitigation plan to counter the strength buffs and status debuffs
@@cameronschyuder9034 I'm get that "the more OP deck can beat the harder challenge", I just dislike the prospect of "you lost with your fun shiv spam deck because your second boss was Time Eater" or the "you lost your self-healing Ironclad run because you got a surprise Awakened One and couldn't afford to scale your strength". It's less about managing to overcome the second boss at this point and more that getting that hard counter can take away what otherwise could have been, and I'd rather not build around an unknown force that I 50/50 won't even face.
I feel like I have a pretty decent understanding of Act 1 survivability, but honestly I thought he was toast there. A lesser player (such as myself) surely would’ve found a way to die on that path, especially given that Laga fight.
Thank you for the VOD! Winstreaking is so cool to watch
P.S. This silent run is ridiculous - honestly feels like the run of the year
When you called chat fools for their lack of faith was just savage in the best way

you have much greater restraint than i do. if i get to 95% then i definite would click till the end :,)
bush trimming would have been more eloquent but its still better than the no joke i can make up on the spot.
I gotta say thanks for the education via your vids, kind sir. Finally hit A19 with Ironclad. Will join your Twitch Stream soon enough. ❤
