Some of my failed runs are just me transforming a card at the beginning, getting something fucking terrible, and then just quitting.

Do you still get crap starting options on your next run if you end without killing a boss?

From what I can tell the starting choices are always the same in this one, which is a nice improvement

This channel is awesome. For each character - general guidelines, specific builds, best cards for each build, then a card tier list.

Man that’s the fun of these games is figuring that shit out. Why would you do that to yourself.

Easiest and most consistent necro build is getting cards that generate Souls, then cards that benefit from using souls. I think another issue people might have is they start a run with a build in mind, and try to force it to work. But if RNG gives you mostly doom cards, then certainly a soul/pet build is no longer going to materialize.

I'll check these out after I've done grinding through all the difficulties to see if theres anything interesting I missed or to explain "Why in the world would anyone pick this card"

I think that’s the problem a lot of people have. They go in thinking “I’m gonna make this work” but rng says fuck you and gives you other stuff. Gotta just roll with what you are offered.

Necro seems harder to make work then the others I've found. I think it's problem is that is has too many things it's trying to do so getting the right things you need in a run to make it work is a smaller chance. Im still very new and could be wrong.

When I go Silent I go into it just planning to grab card draw blocks, free blocks, and Shivblock since it plays into multiple synergies, then see what my first Yellow card offer has. Something like Infinite Blades helps push me into shivs but if that doesn't work out it's still a free extra attack/card-play/discard fodder for other synergies. I'll generally check the end boss for first floor and prioritize grabbing one big attack if it's the dude who keeps handing out -2str/dex since that wrecks all the low.damage free or multi attacks

Game is definitely most difficult with the default starting decks. I have yet to lose anytime I do a "random" or "draft" deck.

Uhh for games like this the learning curve is many hours of losing on each character.

To each their own obviously, but cannot imagine not checking basic guides for super deep strategy games. 🤔

Ok. The Regent has the worst feast/famine cards ever. You can get absolute SHIT cards and there is nothing you can do. They are just trash. Then again, you get god-like cards, and you're up to the 3rd boss in no time. (Still haven't beaten last boss with Regent).

The mid tier cards, again are mostly garbage with a couple exceptions where once upgraded, they are pretty good.

ANOTHER build that that I'm having issues with, is that Sovereign Blade absolutely needs the card that lets it hit everything. I swear I have seen it twice in like 10 runs. I get it? RIGHT to the boss.

Tips on The Regent? I refuse to move on to the next character until I win with this dude!!
