DOUBLE COLLECTOR?! | Ascension 20 Defect Run | Slay the Spire 

I did that

That’s the joke lol

I was hoping he was playing the watcher and took 2 copies of collect, but dreams will stay dreams

Mind Bloom+.

Defragment + Storm deck with a mummified hand was my ace run.

Snecko is mostly good because it draws two more cards on top of being an energy relic.

am I the only person who calls this card "BASED cognition"? xd

Jakub Łaba based pognition

idk if you're memeing but the odds of that happening are incredibly low, and it's not necessarily even game losing to get a hand full of three cost cards. you get potions to help on rough turns, some turns you can just pass and be alright, some single cards can mitigate an entire turn (intangible, buffer, piercing wail, impervious, vault) and you may have active powers/relics that bail you out (anchor/cleet/captain's wheel, corruption, barricade/calipers, incense burner, frost orbs, plated armor, etc.) literally all of these examples were off the top of my head. you usually hit a few bad hands throughout a snecko run. it's still one of the best relics in the game in large part because of its consistency.

If a defrag+ makes each frost orb give 2 more block and also gives the awakened one +2 strength, it evens out and often reaches a net positive even against multiattacks. Other powers like biased cog have similar benefits, and loop helps immensely as long as you keep frost in front. It is worth noting that if he had only 3 orb slots, the build would have suffered a fair bit

@@ericwallace1484 it's net positive since he usually has more than one frost orb

i uploaded that video on march 21st of 2018 and am pretty sure nothing relevant has changed since then. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ScSRbp9bfAA.html

@@Jorbs Oh, I could have just looked. Sorry for the ignorance lol, I feel like twitch chat now.

Awesome reply!

Chaotic Revenge At least you admit that you’re wrong.

Even tho I see why under most situations it is a net positive, it just stresses me tf out

@@ImortalZeus13 how is he wrong for stating an opinion... he never said snecko isnt good, just that he doesnt like the randomness..

Not if you're going to play Defragment or Loop. The 2 strength doesn't do as much as gaining 2 block per frost orb or tripling the effect of an orb, so it's perfectly possible (as you saw in this video) to just outscale the Awakened One while still playing powers.

Get rekt nub

...you are aware the heart has a dpt cap, right

@@andrewwang7699 lol debunked. Maybe he just wasn't clear about what he was saying.

I'll be honest, I feel that. I often find that I have no idea how some runs ended because I fall asleep in act 4 and wake up to a new video as he's selecting a starting bonus. That said, I've ended up improving my understanding of the game quite a bit compared to before I started watching.

Nir Peled I think it has less to do with the content but just how we’re watching the vod through youtube and partly of how his personality is. The game isn’t particularly engaging to a passive observer, so it’s up to the streamer-viewer and viewer-viewer interaction to keep things alive. Take away the live chat and you basically lose a chunk of that. Jorbs also doesn’t have an ecstatic personality and personally most of his appeal is from the fact that he is quiet. Imo it’s perfect to just tune to his stream/videos and do your daily work on the foreground lol.

I watch old videos to bed and new videos in the midday and if my body decides its nap time, who am I to say it’s wrong?

Thanks to this I read every StS card in his voice

I love his vids for that, I always watch a run right before bed, jorbs voice is very calming

yeah there is no real "planning ahead" since you just try to play each hand at the best cost, and RNG but it wins, so i guess it's fine?

Disagree

It's probably bcs it is a dead card during the first cycle because shuffling the discard pile is bad when he's looking for the defrags and electrodynamics to quickly clean up mobs or elites. I forgot whether he's gotten the electro or not at this point but jorbs often plans ahead unless pressured by an immediate dire situation. Some examples would be his skipping a lot of charge battery though its a decent act 1 defense card. I might be wrong though but this is what I think of it.

take a look at your discard pile on turn 2/3/4 every now and then, you'll notice it's often a LOT worse than your draw pile. not just missing the strong powers/exhaust cards, but also full of dazes/burns/slimes etc.

@@Jorbs I see, thanks for explaining. Makes sense ^^

especially claw :)

its upside is that you draw +2 cards every turn, the randomized cost is the downside

There's an act 3 event where he got it in exchange for all gold.

@@dearozero3631 OH!!! That makes so much sense! thank you! I didn't actually know that was what it would do, I don't think I've ever taken it, always just skipped!

Because they are bad cards. You need attacks early on in order to deal with Gremlin Nob and to deal with the Act One hallway fights as efficiently as possible

How many hours have you played?

@@Damian12312 at least 150 hour .-.
