CRITICAL BUZZSAW RUN! - PEGLIN

[@Legault397]

Tom immediately and completely forgetting about his dagger that makes him automatically crit below half health is killing me haha

Ol Rot Brain Tom.

We pay him to lead not to read or remember...anything...ever usually ^.^ lol

I am now convinced Tom has never put two and two together and realized that red pegs signifies he's getting crit damage.

[@groezy]

@@GuardsmanGary_Ch this echo is doing a lot of damage today!

[@Scoots1994]

Taking lesser shots to get a crit when every shot is a crit, and I'm certain he's going to heal out of crits any moment now. Oop, there it is!

[@skrumbleton3745]

“Ah yes, that %10 echo has given me 115 damage despite doing no damage with the last shot” Completely forgetting the autocrit dagger

I love how Tom hasn't noticed that he's getting crits from being at half health yet lol

An absolute perfect example of Captain Distracto managing to win despite forgetting key strategic details. We love ya, Tom!!

Tom expertly (and accidentally) staying perfectly below 50%hp in the first level really is just such a Tom thing to do.

Tom: "I sure hope we hit a crit" Knifes edge relic: 🤔

[@TheSnob113]

I am so tilted by the immediate forgetting of the auto crit!

[@MindMessed]

I finally bought this game back in July and have been playing it nonstop since. I'm at Cruciball 14 on most classes, and it's hard as nails getting passed it. I've gotten most of the achievements, all of the orbs, and all of the relics. A big ol' thank you to Tom for introducing this game to me.

[@Aeguis]

Cruciball 10 gave a lot of trouble. Haven't tried beyond it.

[@waterierStone]

I'd say the only way to get past cruciball 15 is with the buckler or the decoy. them getting 2 free turns while you reload is insane.

[@L-po8rx]

I've got to Cruciball 13 and 14 and it is so hard!

[@aethernaut1899]

It's a fun contrast to watch Day9 videos where, sometimes to a fault, he'll go out of his way to point out good UI-design elements that guide the players attention, and the come over and watch anyone in the Yogscast. Tom must have played Peggle more than almost anyone, and doesn't know that red orbs = crit.

[@ekong1729]

I love how he goes through the ENTIRE run without realizing Knife's Edge was giving him crits at 50% hp. Never change Tom 😂

[@Phen_LL]

Tom winning the run despite *instantly* forgetting about his relic guaranteeing crits if he's under 50% health is both impressive and aggravating. Also if he hasn't realized that red pegs mean crit is activated, I think Captain Distracto deserves a promotion to Colonel Distracto!

[@odditiescollector4540]

i feel like the buzzsaw ball should run along the floor hitting all enemies that way it makes more use out of it applying it's debuff

And he forgot about crit knife right after he took it. Classic.

The only appropriate name for a buzzsaw build would be "The ravenholm technique"

[@babaloo55555]

Amen! One of my favorite parts of HL2.

[@EDoyl]

This is my favorite build in a long time. Getting the exact 'multiple crits all stack' relic you were looking for, by seeking bosses, was a strategy that paid off so well and the level 1 starting Daggorb got to be really good. As for exploitiball being strong, it depends on whether it gets applied before or after the saw hits which is something I'm not bothered going back to check, but the high crit damage on the saw plus the targeting meant it was still nice regardless.

[@elthir2416]

Tom, you promised a bouldorb run quite a while ago and I still want to see it. Bouldorb is just crying in the corner with you ignoring him T.T

[@abstractlime101]

I dont think I've ever been actually upset at Tom not noticing something before

[@Delaterius]

"Got down into pumpkin town" sounds filthy

[@taylorbrecht8049]

It's crazy how he didn't realize the thing!

[@Alasius]

Could it be that Tom is colourblind? Or how does he not notice the red inking when an attack is being counted as crit?

[@ekong1729]

Huh. I hadn't thought of that. Seems likely, and the crit noise at the beginning could be easily tuned out if you're not paying attention.

[@Whales_]

I have never in my 200 hours noticed that, so I can't in good faith fault him for that. There were other signs that should've made him remember it here tho, but that's not what they pay him for, nor why we are here.

[@zilentis1835]

@@Whales_the whole board changes colour, it’s very noticeable, when I first saw my friend play the game the first crit he got I asked him “why did it change red?” You might be colourblind lol, I’d highly recommend taking a test

[@jamesmccann531]

Thing is, Tom has noticed it changing to red and that meaning a crit in the past

[@Cothfotmeoo]

If Tom isn't biting his nails: worried, then is it even a Peglin build? Well played.

[@waterierStone]

The other classes make it easier to make specific builds by removing other orbs and relics. The roundrel has more crit orbs and poison. The balladin has more musicle and bulwark. The spinventor has slime orbs and their starting relic is kinda busted.

Would love to see some cruciball games.

[@nordicturtle6060]

"Oh we still got the damage because of the echo!"... no tom, it was in fact not the echo, it was the relic you got and completely forgot about. Captain Distracto strikes again!

[@dagansmith5354]

11:02 you what Tom! WHAT? I cant even.

[@aidandixon6028]

You inspired me to buy this game, now I'm cruciball 15 on two of the peglins, so much fun, great on both mobile and PC

[@doughieboy5144]

A good day is a peglin day

[@Derpingmuffin]

I love how Tom keeps aiming for a crit when he knows he already has a crit from being under 50% HP. He needs the extra challenge, otherwise it would just be too easy

[@danielgold9487]

Alien's rock Tom, that resolves your issue Buzzsaw, its the equivalent to prime rod of frost but for targeted moves

[@A_Ereira]

I thought it was insane that Tom seemingly has never made the connection that red pegs means crit mode but then I read the comments and realised there are people with 100+, 200+ hours in this game that apparently never noticed it. Genuinely what the heck, guys? That's bonkers to me. Like, mind boggling even.

[@jamesmccann531]

Not only did Tom forget about the knife edge relic, he is also apparently oblivious to the colour of the orbs changing as soon as he throws...

[@tubasil8786]

The yogscast guarantee with the frustration of Tom forgetting the auto crit perk

[@StrangelyIronic]

The problem with the ball is with crit builds, it's very rare you don't nuke the target, even more rare when you can target anything. Spinesse or however it's spelled makes more sense since it's a player buff over an enemy debuff.

Can we get a crit?! Yes! Because we *always* crit < 50% health! Oh Tom, never change.

Mandatory Algorithmic Comment Because We Love Tom And The Editing xx

[@Lysvsyl]

Could there be like an unedited Tom channel? Uploading the raw footage isn't too difficult and I'd genuinely enjoy it far more.

[@krumpits]

At this point it feels like Tom doesnt know that all the pegs go red when you have a crit lol

[@willsmith7114]

Would really prefer some of the higher cruciball difficulties since on base level there's pretty much no danger, a win is a basically always a foregone conclusion. Some risk of a loss would add some suspense to the videos.

[@orangesilver8]

Tom bringing that unupgraded daggorb to the final boss fight.

[@FrostedCreations]

I noticed that too, do you think he doesn't realise you can upgrade starting orbs? Or does Tom just no read good

i feel like buzzsaw would be INSTANTLY better if they lowered its damage a bit but made it pierce all enemies

[@tallleprechaun1318]

What I got from this at 13:24 is that Tom deserves no healers in any of his MMO or Dnd games (or any of their derivatives)

[@ImmortalAbsol]

Yay we back.

[@Mindflood18]

Bouldorb?

[@christopherg2347]

Tom, a little secret: *Red pegs means you have already crit!* Hoping to hit a crit when the pegs are already telling you that you have critted is...confusing.

[@SheepBeard]

Tom. You have ignored Bouldorb for too long. If you go into the Custom Game menu, there are some special challenge relics. I suggest a run using one of those, and a deck of only Bouldorbs

[@kezmsfilms1300]

Daily reminder that Tom is an amazing person and to thank him for all he has done/will do - Day 1434 Wow, a very good build indeed XD, those Buzzsaws are fun, although with a few issues like Tom says "You guys are just going to be a nightmare aren't you" *Proceeds to obliterate all of them in one fell swoop* Daggorb is a good boy, let him stay Bouldorb our beloved, we miss you

[@Tectonicbg]

I see a tom, I leave a like

[@RuffianTux]

Tom...please. The pegs are red.

[@praetor2997]

The question I'm wondering is if he noticed before posting the video hahaha.

[@vashtarsigilarusdragonis5672]

Ahem, what about that bouldorb run you said we would get very soon Tom?

[@Rob-ob]

Looking through the comment section I think there’s a chance that Tom might’ve missed the guaranteed crits when injured relic he had, but I dunno no one’s really talking about it

[@S4B3R117]

Im convinced that making all the pegs durable is just plain bad

[@EpyonRules]

It's actually REALLY good, imo. Sure, there are a couple scenarios in which it is somewhat of a hindrance, namely having to dig for crits/refreshes (which can be mitigated with other relics and orbs) and (very importantly) how often your orb will glitch out on certain moving stages where the orb is held in place for, like, a second or two, and then just vanishes completely. Other than that, having all pegs have Durable can be *really* strong. I just did a run where I got 450+ Ballwark in a single shot against the dragon. Granted, it was combined with the orb that shields every 3rd orb hit and gives you 1 Ballwark when it does and the kinetic force relic with the crits and refreshes buried in the middle of the treasure mound (so the orb just kept bouncing from the right side to the left side constantly, sloooooowwly digging a path out to the bottom on one side). It's also really good with peg-upgrade strats.

[@cappinjocj9316]

Classic Tom. 50%autocrit. Oblivious.

[@deagle50ae]

I think this might be the most broken build yet! Congrats!

[@rosariocrimson]

When Orbelisk run? Also there have been a lot of relics added since that video way back where you used all the relics from the start, an up-to-date one might be jokes.

[@lleeoo110]

im beginning to think tom might also be color blind, cause my balls hurt every time he doesn't realize all the pegs turn red despite him not hitting a crit

[@DrDarkheart]

Watching tom for minutes meticulously aim for crits while below 50% was painful

[@ryancampbell3020]

Tom is colorblind

[@Impukes]

Is Tom Red/Green colourblind?

[@deaconholmes3426]

New episode of misplay dungeon 😂

[@genericuser984]

neat

[@bobleonheart9600]

Tom already doing crits because he's below 50% HP worrying about hitting a crit. That's just Tom for you.

[@MichaelTE]

I'm kind of thinking the game has reached a point where it needs a pretty serious rebalancing. I remember a time when you weren't doing tens of thousands of damage with every ball you throw. Considering Tom has been winning the last few runs with extreme ease while playing pretty much on autopilot and completely forgetting strategic bonuses seems to suggest the game has become far too easy. Are there difficulty settings? I mean this run was a cakewalk even though Tom forgot about his

[@Coldyham]

"cruciball" is the difficulty setting, with a new debuff every time you win the previous cruciball level. Things like starting with an extra stone, stones do 2/3 instead of 2/4, only one crit peg by default, etc.

[@TheMirksta]

Tom is playing on the easiest difficulty on what (imo) is the strongest character in the game. If you have played Slay the Spire, he is basically playing on A0. I think the game is not super well balanced but mostly in terms of 'some things are not good enough at all', the most game breaking thing is whether you find reliable in fight healing or not. I find myself dying in every act roughly as much as one another on higher Cruciball, and are much less likely to win a run. Do keep in mind that Tom probably won't post runs where he doesn't do something particularly interesting or powerful to win because the video won't be long or fun enough.

[@zilentis1835]

It’s because they added more stages. Back in the demo where there was only 1 stage, you never really got an opportunity to see it go hog wild

[@lleeoo110]

trying so hard to hit those crits when he already has guaranteed crit at 50% health, oh tom..............................

[@lordcthulhu17]

lol

[@cassonian]

Ok this is frustrating to watch. Tom, friend, are you like really high or something?

I love this. You really live like this? Just not a damn clue what or why anything around you is happening? I hope your having fun at least.
