The Ironclad 

I believe he's said before that there aren't really "builds" in this game. There's so much rng that goes into which cards you get that it's better to think for yourself how your cards work together. You'd be surprised how many cards in each class synergize when used properly. Frost did however make a tier list of cards for each class which might be useful for some guidance.

It's more productive to think about how cards help you address your upcoming threats. In act 1 you should prioritize upfront damage over scaling or synergies until you've added and upgraded at least a couple of cards. Basic example: Blade dance is a strong card in act 1, but it's not because you might get a "shiv build" going. It's strong because its damage per energy is much better than a strike (literally twice as good) and upgrading it adds more damage to your deck than upgrading a strike would. Likewise adding a raw Accuracy to your deck in act 1 is almost always a bad idea, because it won't do anything for you right away and it's not guaranteed to ever do anything. Even if you already have a few blade dances, an early accuracy may not be correct unless you need a scaling solution to kill Hexaghost or Lagavulin quickly.

As far as builds and synergies, he's said you can definitely look for things that work well with what you have and it takes some time to recognize those, but you shouldn't go into any run trying to do anything in particular, cuz like if you say "I'm going to make a poison build this game" and you never find any poison cards, then you're screwed.

This is not the way to play slay the spire. Forcing decks will make you lose more.

@@Lamb666Losing is only detrimental to your efficient use of time. You can commit to a particular play style until it eventually gives you a win.

But 200 dmg shield slams though.

@@Gaze73barricade, body slam and entrench are a hilarious combo lmao

Found the hearthstone player​@@Gaze73

Ironclad is billed as the “simplest” character to play, but his method of blocking isn’t straightforward. Ironclad blocks by: - Having a shit ton of max HP - Healing with Reaper & strength scaling - Using exhaust synergies, as shown in this video - Abusing Barricade and Entrench

Ironclad is a nobrainer. Just perfected the heart with like 200 armor. The Silent is the worst, sometimes I die in act 1.

Its the most simplest out of them get flex upgrade duplicate, get jax event choose jaxxed card if you didn't duplicate flex duplicate jaxxed because its op then get demon form get limit break then dominate

Yeah the idea is the less strikes and defenses you have, the better it gets. As long as your cards are high value/you have 4 energy, Snecko is a no-brainer. The innate +2 draws every turn is already super high value.

Yes, the Ironclad.

You got this pal, go get 'em!

I like how there's a translate to English option for this comment

​@@ramacoppolaro1493 The translate to English! It does nothing!

He should play 1. d4
