Timestamps for when Baalor picks up the cards in the thumbnail (Body Slam and Panic Button) and the relic alluded to in the description (Runic Dome): (Updated 7/29/24 for the new thumbnail. Original thumbnail was Body Slam and Barricade.) Runic Dome: (Act 1 Boss - 22:55) Body Slam: (Floor 36 Combat - 42:51) Panic Button: (Floor 45 Shop - 52:14) From original thumbnail: Barricade: (Act 2 Boss - 37:22) Ah, a staple Ironclad deck. Who needs other attacks when you've got block?

Just found your channel and just started my a20 climb on the clad. Finished a4 yesterday with a deck like this, i had the exhaust suite and I held out for a barricade and never got one but I did have 5 impervious and 4 body slam. Turn one double impervious into a couple body slams was *chefs kiss*

Never understood why people think dome ruins content. Dome IS content. If you can't enjoy it because you can't see what the enemy is doing... Are you even paying attention? He explains and comments on every turn within EVERY RUN HE PLAYS. if you don't know enemy patterns, you need to pay more attention and play the game yourself. Get good.

Hey baalor. I wanted to ask does it matter when you take the keys in the spire or is there a reason to take them at specific times
@excellia8340
2 ай бұрын
Hey, I might add my opinion : taking the keys depends on what you can gain if you don't take it. For the Green Key : A super elite can be really tough, fighting one at the beginning of the run can just kill you. You have to think if your deck can handle it, in general it'll be depending on the path you take, but Act 3 or Act 2 might be the easiest to go for it. Blue Key : Depends on the relic you throw away. If you don't think you need a regal pillow, take the blue key. A late fish ? Take the blue key. Just don't throw away a good relic if you don't have to. As for the Red Key : Generally the later the better. Resting can help you survive, upgrading makes your deck stronger. Taking this key means wasting a campfire, so you have to be sure this campfire is not better for another purpose. I hope this helps a bit.
@malcolmfoley7006
2 ай бұрын
Since the benefit for the keys doesn't come until the end of act 3, it's generally best to delay getting them until as late as possible. You might take them earlier if what you're giving up has very little use. E.g. juzu bracelet is often a skippable relic. If your deck is already quite strong going to the burning elite earlier frees up your choice of pathing in later acts

@@excellia8340 there's also that cost benefit of choosing to gamble with what you get. Regenerating giant head? Of course you want that, but metallicize repto would be too much. So do you risk plus strength book of stabbing? Stuff like that. Same idea with relics. Skipping bronze scales now might mean incense burner later, or a useless unceasing top

@mythmakroxymore1670

i almost killed the heart with a similar deck. i had started with a firebreathing deck with 2 flame barriers + and a power through, going to a second and third power through, barricade+, Second Wind, a Bludgeon, headbutt, Juggernaut and Body Slam too. i didn't have as much exhasust so i skipped Feel No Pain but that definitely would have saved the run, as i immediately got the intangible hands event. I kept hitting Flame Barrier against the blood dots, it was so good, and i was blocking most of the time. then i had one turn when i got most of my attacks, and it was over. if i had drawn one of my flame barriers, i would have won, or if i had drawn another Wound or other status. but i consider firebreathing a better scaling version of Rampage, in that it can carry to the first boss without much setup, but past that you need other sources of damage.

I have a question. On the first shop, Baalor talks about probably needing to buy a potion, and seems to consider the Regen Potion. Isn't Fairy in a Bottle always more health (unless you get another Regen, I guess...)? Isn't it easier to use? Why is Regen better?

If I had to guess, fairy just eats a potion slot, you could probably use the Regen pot and grab another potion by the time fairy procs.
