>’oh sweet, limit break run’ >*looks inside* >dead branch corruption All love, great run!

[@galewind]

Thanks for all of your videos! Thanks to your help, I've now finished my first three heart runs (just finished The Defect today).... Now onto the watcher!!

[@Seeker_of_Truth_and_Beauty]

Here's to a Happy New Year, everyone! 🎉🎉 Looks like we've got a spectacular run to finish the year off.

[@nangsanbhalangblah333]

Happy new Year Everyone !!!!!!!!! :)

[@CardCheckerStS]

Timestamps for when Baalor picks up the cards and relic in the thumbnail (Limit Break, Inflame, and Brimstone): [Updated for the new thumbnail. Original thumbnail was Fiend Fire and Dead Branch.] Limit Break: (7:37) (Floor 10 Elite) Inflame: (9:52) (Floor 12 Combat) Brimstone: (58:39) (Floor 48 Shop) Original timestamp and comment: Dead Branch: (5:09) (Floor 7 Elite) (No copies of Fiend Fire are added to the base deck.) This Branch isn't the only Dead thing this run!

[@Fritzguyes]

Seems like the title card and title has been changed.

[@pstarr9]

"i need this potion for the heart fight" the heart fight:

[@ken_kaniff246]

Dead branch + corruption is always such fun shenanigans 😂

[@Xgya2000]

I remember having a tie against the Heart. Turns out dying to the final boss' final heartbeat does NOT count as having finally escaped the Spire. I did not know. I thought a dead heart stopped beating.

[@DaleMallows]

Jesus Christ that was insane.

[@metsislesfan]

What did the watcher streak end at?

[@lucasmetz5406]

He got to 25 then stopped I believe. Didn’t lose but just moved on since the goal of the challenge was 20 and he exceeded it.

[@orgranau]

​@lucasmetz5406 from video #120 iirc on baalorlord unedited channel, he lost the streak at 25

[@scotthynding6106]

It was lost going for 26

[@BrotherCheng]

@@scotthynding6106 It's also interesting how he lost soon after switching to rotating streak. I think it's a bit harder to have to constantly switch gears in what you are focusing on and types of builds you need to win A20H.

[@BurningM]

​@@lucasmetz5406 saw a video on baalorlord low budget where he lost. Was recently uploaded afaik

[@AnacondaHL]

brutal and inhumane, that heart had a family 😭

[@breadbxsket2]

Adding 1 attack in Act 1 is crazy for ironclad, strength go brrr

[@michaelhofer4548]

To confirm, at 56:44 when the Tomb of Lord Red Mask triggered - If that would have ordinarily been a combat floor that was swapped due to Juzu Bracelet, the Bracelet would have flashed in the relic bar, right? So literally, Juzu did nothing there.

[@icantpronounce]

red mask is a shrine not an event and juzu turns combats to events

[@BobJones-bg4ui]

Awesome accomplishment for the Watcher win streak! I watch your videos everytime I go to bed since the start of 2024.

[@ArmorOfGod7]

That was one of the fastest Time Eater fights I've ever seen...wow!

[@sircyborg]

mr Baalor man. Clad is tricky for me. I like to think I'm good at rolling with the punches in this game, and most of the time I find clad pretty easy, but then you get that clad run where nothing make sense, and hindsight can find a win, but the desicions in hindsight are so convoluted and different that I'm reevaluating my life choices.What I've found is maybe taking common attacks less agressively might be the trick, but then that would make all the normal runs harder. I have no idea what I'm doing, it seems, and it's those few clad runs that just donk my streak. I mean, the defect is probably harder overall for me, never really figured it out there, but for clad it just feels like I know exactly what to do, and then, all of a sudden, I know nothing. It's rare enough to not call it inconsistent, but it feels so polarizing, I guess is the word. Not really seeking advice here, just something that baffle me lately. Before I tried to get win treaks I didn't even notice it, but now the clad has become very interesting to me. Man, if they manage to make spire 2 half as interesting a this I'm gonna be impressed. Edit: Apoligize for lots of spelling/case mistakes. Won't fix 'em though, only point them out to make myself seem smarter without making any real change. Cheers!

[@thermophile1695]

Dead branch AND FNP before Lament is over? This is gonna be good.

[@coolpapabell22]

I swear the game never hits me over the head with a deck type as much as Dead Branch-Feel No Pain from one fight. Or maybe I'm just too dumb to notice when it does :D

[@victorbui6341]

Any time you get a Dead Branch and a consistent exhaust synergy, it’s a great time. My favorite way to play Iron Clad

[@codydewees5825]

17:56, missed 4 heal. 17+7 dmg needed, strike -12, reaper --10 combust -5 reaper heals 5 combust takes 1

[@TheWardroid]

56:57 Juzu is trying its best ok?!?

[@minimina1872]

Yay it's the lad named Ironc💜

[@Hawaiian_Brian]

1:07:07 hey, look ma! Im famous This was cyber bullying to that heart by the way

[@HardxCorpsxKali]

I wonder who’s the strongest in the spire… is it defect power spam or the clad with dead branch corruption? It would be a close fight. Maybe watcher mini deck infinite? The only thing I do know is that the silent is no where in the conversation! 😂😂😂 obviously has a strong synergy with 9999999 damage poison builds but it’s not in the running with the speed of the other ones.. if I had to pick one that was strongest I’d say it’s defect. The power spam run he had last year was silly. Killed everything on turn one.

[@jeren5100]

Why does everyone think Ironclad is cool? because he's the rad guy

[@AdderallXR831]

Happy new years yall! Also....RANDOM BULLSHIT, GO!

[@XdeadsoulXful]

Curious if there is any interest in playing Diceomancer?

[@subtleknife1]

Is True Grit one of the best upgrades in the game? I think so

[@nofall25]

oh yeah back to clad

[@iurirafael]

How and where do i get that mod that counts th cards and highlights the path ??

[@Baalorlord]

The card counting is a setting in the regular game (card quick select keys or something). The path highlighting is github.com/casey-c/mapmarks

[@SwogFrog]

We love red guy

[@pikachu-uk1bg]

Is there any tips for the "You are nothing" achievement. Really trying hard

[@whydoyouaskdude]

Get an infinite turn 1 running against any boss that ain't Time Eater or Awakend one

[@pikachu-uk1bg]

A video from start of the run to finish would always be better

[@Chromatose12]

I'm pretty sure baalorlord already has a video about that

[@pikachu-uk1bg]

It seems he doesn't. Not that I can find at least

[@Streeta756]

The easiest way i found was to spam act 1 watcher runs until i got slime boss and then focus on collecting potions that help as well as high damage cards. Good luck!

[@adamhill7096]

baalor i fucking love you okay you make me feel so comfortable and safe and i really hope that 2025 is your best year yet

[@Ultracity6060]

Not that it mattered, but that was a pretty bad Smiling Mask.

[@iurirafael]

new guy here. why does your game look diferent ??? like, the path highlights, the little flame thig next to the floors, a bunch of diferent relics i dont get. is it mods ? addons ??? or just game progress ??

[@petecroker]

Hallooo! So, absolutely nothing mechanically different in the game here - if there are relics you haven't seen, it's probably that you just haven't seen them yet, which might be because you haven't unlocked them if you're pretty new. The green pathing is a modded feature, as are the stats for each relic on what they've done in the game, and the % chance of getting a potion ... that sort of stuff. Revealing information but not changing the game. Flame thing next to the doors I'm not sure I can answer but I reckon a friendly player will be along soon to address it. Enjoy the game - it's a lot of fun.

[@nickj357]

"Flame thing next to the floors" is the ascension counter. There are 20 levels of ascension that unlock with each victory on the previous level of ascension. You start at ascension "zero" and unlock ascension 1 after your first win with that character. Ascension adds stacking difficulty modifiers, and Baalorlord plays on Ascension 20 (the highest difficulty), which means 20 additional modifiers to make the game harder.

[@erenozeren4969]

12 seconds... damn

[@Jonas-cf4oi]

Is He winning act 2? Just tuned in

[@RandomPerson28337]

The most lucky run

[@zerospaceca3376]

Hey Baalor, no love for floor 14 Reckless Charge? EDIT: Nevermind, answered it 20 seconds later

[@hssal2]

Ironchad is love. Ironchad is life
