How To Play The Silent 

Honestly I find tough runs like these better for these how to videos as frost does a really good job of showing what to do when the cards are against you

My words can't possibly describe how much I love the time eater. Every time my deck gets an infinite, or plays billion cards a turn. The act boss is time-eater. Everytime I'm not doing that, it's not time eater.

Holy shit, the roller coaster of getting potion seller right before burning elite, then getting a really scary strength slavers, having a flex potion, drawing dagger spray in the opening hand, then quick slash coming in and drawing the blade dance. Absolutely banger content right there.

Frost caught me at the end seeing how much time was left XD

how to play the silent: Die to time eater

When I saw time eater, I legit looked at the progress bar, then frost called me out dang

Frost's explanation of how Tools of the trade works was actually pretty eye-opening

the moment you screamed i died laughing xD that was a fantastic run tho. the amount of skill used to escape such seemingly hopeless fights so often was amazing to watch

Love this style of video! the overexplain runs can be quite dense at times, this was the perfect balance between explanation and not taking 6 hours

I love these types of StS videos, especially with your relaxed personality. Please make more!

This is exactly the right kind of Overexplained video for me. It's still fun and interesting, but it has better pacing and a more relaxed feel than a full tutorial. More please!

I think I’m weird and can say that the silent is by far my weakest character, I’m ok on the iron clad, solid on defect, and a divinity wizard on the watcher, the things I’ve learned here will definitely help me climb ascensions, thank you for being so smart frost :)

Great run! Silent is the only character I can do A20 pretty consistently with, and it’s always great to learn how to further improve with her.

Just wanted to say I really appreciate the educational StS content. Keep it up frost! :) I personally still struggle with the game... I know what I should look for on each act, but I don't understand how tf you manage to craft such balanced/strong decks consistently. Some kind of "how much dmg/block/utility to pick at what point" guide would be AMAZING (if there is some way to generalize that)

Been waiting on this one! Love the content my dude!

I WAS THERE FOR THE SHIRT THING!!!

Just sitting down for lunch time and seeing “new video uploaded 11mins ago” what a dream

16:12 to expand on this idea, there’s another way to describe it. After the second turn of playing it, you end up equivalently playing one prepared. After the third turn, you’ve basically played a prepared+. After the fourth turn, your rare card is finally digging deeper than an upgraded common is, for more energy (unless you upgrade it). Now, there is one time it is really good, and that’s when you use it as a guaranteed enabler for the unplayable cards like Reflex and Tactician as opposed to raw card draw.

This was maybe the tightest run you've ever done. You came out of every fight by the skin of your teeth. Amazing content, king. 👑

Love teaching vids they are super helpful!!!

I was lawfull, i didnt look at the time until the 50 damage atack was clearly unblockable, that said, cool video and nive to take notes

I made it to A20 on silent a few days ago but already before you even started the 1st fight i learned more than a few things. Going for ironclad next.

lmfao right before he said "if you're on youtube dont move your mouse" i had just done it. my bad frosty boi

As a newer player on ascension 5 on a couple of characters I love the helpful content ❤

I feel like I was caught red handed there at that part with the thing with that one guy who does that one thing. Absolutely perfect timing

Love the vids where you brain dump your thought process as the focus!

So sad I couldn't catch the stream, but I'm glad my favorite RU-vidr, Andrew, is doing a run explaining

Holyyy that outro song caught me offguard. Made me feel so old now hearing that song again 😂

love the educational stuff helps me feel less bad lol

I really enjoyed this.

Nice video :3 We need another over-explained video about the Silent just as the one about the Defect, please. You wear your formal outfit and your glasses. You spend 20 minutes talking at the beginning and each choice is like voting a law. The video will be two or three hours long. You do a beautiful and epic run with the Silent in a very traditional way (shiv, poison, skill...) You beat the Heart and we are all happy. I love you !

Great work!

Counter tutorial: this is how to make a pinache deck

PeePeePooPoo

Smart boi hours oooo

You're the first person to have a code leoko thing of any kind that I've seen

Runs like this are nice cos it reminds me that Frost is actually good

Kinda late to the party but there was a shop near the end of the run that had the relic that makes a card innate. Not sure if it works on all card types but wouldn't having panache in every opening hand be really good for consistency?

Yes, more educational runs!

Hey frost, how would you go about creating an entirely new character? I got an idea for a character that’s all about moving enemies and overkill damage.

after the first look at the last boss we knew frost it's ok GG

shout out to the twitch frog show said YOUR POTIONS CANT SAVE YOU NOW!! like an epic villain

Silent Socklin

Glad to see that I'm justified in my madness with the silent

Here's a comment to show I love this content

Hey frost, hace you played the slay the spire game? It is on tabletop simulator and me and my friends had a blast playing it, its also cooperative up to 4 players.

50:04 I've never been called out so fucking hard

YES THIS IS MY VIDEO

Nice deck bro but that end was fucking sad. subscribed.

How come your pc game version has cards the Android doesn't have? Is it expansions or just updated more on pc? I can't play silent and not die without upgrade neutralise 😂 sucks if you lose to much hp and can't upgrade. Thanks for the guide, I've plated like 50 games with silent but I'm still so bad at working into builds and rely on luck on relics to own ascension 20

I’d have duped the panache considering your draw.

As im laying in my bed moving the mouse with my pinky finger to see how much is left, he calls me out XD

Trying to figure out why I can’t get past ascension 2 act 2 on the silent… I guess I’m not aggressive enough, I just see all these defends and I’m like “well I better use them, the game *wants* me to 🤡

i have been wondering something about frost: why does he sqwint sometimes ? for what he does it a lot actually im just curious so yea if enyone knows pls answer me

10/10 would not move my mouse again

Me seeing the Time Eater: OMG Also me, seeing the video length: 🕚👄🕚

Peglin, and also poglin.

35:02 aye yoooo

I find it really funny that I’m the first fight of act 1, you had horrible draw rng but in the boss fight of act 1, you had near perfect draw rng

I now im late, but i panned my finger multiple times, i repent

Obligatory "I was in the chat for this run" comment to feed the algorithm

Peglin poglin

some love

I only buy "Discover" when I see it for colorless cards

Today on "A series of unfortunate events"...

Love ya frost!

Legit had the same thing happen to me two days ago. I had crafted the literal best deck I have ever made. 100% to kill on turn 1. I got a ton of card removal in act one and got the relic that drew a card when you hand is empty and my deck was neutralize, 2 acrobatics, 3 slice, 2 deflect, 2 expertise, 3 concentrate, 1 blade storm and a storm of steel Got to act three a saw the timekeeper and wanted to die 😂

genuine question, what mods do you use?

Ggwp thanks

Top tier Perro Tshirt. Does Hardyboy approve?

You were too late Frost, the second time eater came up I moved my mouse to see the runtime and then you warned me.

Why do you have the Code Lyoko emblem attached to your mic arm?

PERO

fricc

I have 1550 hours in this game so I don't need the educational content but its good for others to see so peglin poglin

Jokes on you frost, i did it before you told me to not check the time left

This video helped me through my vasectomy, so while that might make you feel weird, just know it isnt as weird as it felt for my balls. Thanks frost! (/srs)

I can't even beat Ascension 2 and this guy casually does a tutorial on AC 20........

Too late ,I can't stop as I already checked how long was left

Didn't realize that expertise could actually be good draw, I usually never pick it up but this video might make me try taking in some situations, especially considering how it was your only draw for most of the run

I have never seen kite

The burning elites kill you easily? I mean I take half my hp at most. The dazes are annoying af but I get lucky on my draws enough and just keep lowering their dmg and chipping them. Gbh tho never bothered looking at the elite symbols didn’t know I was going into burning elites lol.

Wow. So my most major problem so far is a poor card collection. One day i will make 3rd stage.

day 149 of asking frost to play chess cool shirt : )

Why is Magnetism bad? I pick it up whenever I can? Is there something wrong with Magnetism?

brown hair version of ed sheeran plays slay the spire?

If you did an overexplained on binding of Isaac I might actually watch that content. What are the big issues for me with that game, and I imagine some others might feel like this, is that I have no idea what the fuck is going on, I don't know the stakes, I don't know the bills, I have no idea what pills are cards do, the game is just so much more than it was when I and probably most people played it back when it didn't have any expansions

16:06 I think i realize why i always kinda disagree with Frost arguing that slow draw stuff like tools of the trade and the upgrade of the Silent's starting relic. Weighing both card and relic solely by "positive draw" metric. At the beginning parts of the game (which is coincidentally when Frost explained said metric), Frost and anyone would still have a lot of basic cards not removed yet, and the average draws are mostly basic cards and 0-2 actually useful cards, while having 3 energy. When drawing useful cards, most of the times you will not have enough energy to play the basic cards, so having a tools of the trade replacing a basic card draw is not as devastating, and i would say that leverages the benefit enough to make you consider taking the card. It does however gets worse later in the game where you have a lot more useful cards you need to play, and having one dead draw because of a singular card may cascade into a loss, with the +1 draw from a power may not bail you out of said disaster. But i think that is a bit of uncommon RNG screw ups and the Silent has so mamy cards that can get her out of a dead draw.
