Finally a pro player acknowledging the 100% downside of runic dome, that goes beyond player skill. Too many people saying that you can predict all the moves in this game after all these hundreds of hours was starting to annoy me. Its definitely a situational energy relic that I only think of taking if the other options are abysmal and I'm hungry for that energy, and when my deck can really support it by playing the same way no matter what enemies do. Which is a rare thing to happen. Thanks for that needed to hear it. To be honest I quickly discovered in this game how high a winrate I can have by simply not doing these true high risk "gambles". No runic dome, and no boss swap either, for the most part. Especially on Silent which happens to be my favorite. Consistency is the best way to learn how to play this game.

[@brennanharris6739]

I had a setup run recently with tons of card draw where i was using setup on 2 cost Leg Sweep and Riddle with Holes and on 3 cost Wraith Form. Probably the only kinds of decks where setup is good are ones where you have tons of card draw or draw manupulation (eg pyramid or well laid plans) but also expensive cards to play while being short on energy to play them. So its super conditional but i think it can be a one card solution for certain niche situations. The only reason i was running that deck was because of a very weird pandoras box!

[@cameronschyuder9034]

Boot is based

[@TobeyFairre7861]

What about different variations of a glove item for each character? For example, for Iron Clad, it could, like you said, make him immune to spike damage. For The Silent, make it retain one card per turn, but specifically say retain for synergies with the primatic shard. For The Defect, 0 cost cards that include Claw, Go for the Eyes, or Beam Cell do 6 more damage. Idk if that one eould need to be reworded so that it includes the upgraded versions of the cards, but i meant it to be like Claw support for The Defect specifically. The Watcher could be something like the first time you play an attack each turn, gain 1 energy/mana, and upgraded it boosts it to 2 allowing for even more aggro tomfoolery, I'd imagine lmao.

46:50 I found the Forgotten Altar without the Golden Idol in a run yesterday too. And the damage would have killed me, so I had to take the curse. I still beat Act IV (A8), but it feels bad, man.

Any reason why Quick Slash isn't valued as highly on Silent as Pommel Strike for Clad? Is it because there are better draw/damage options available for Silent?

[@DelightedCore]

Quick slash upgrade is way worse than pommel strike upgrade, doesn't draw another card

[@boonsaplenty3924]

Also there's just rarely a time in the game I'm happy to take Quick Slash comfortably. Pommel Strike is a nice damage option early game but its upgraded form makes it decent late game by drawing you into your synergy pieces. Quick Slash is alright damage early game but is outpaced by commons like Blade Dance, and mid-to-late game you're taking things that let you set-up your scaling options faster

[@Raphael_246]

pommel draws two. Also, in late game as Silent you want to control your draw more than Clad which makes quick slash often unplayable

[@Plepsfoko]

Quick slash is just a worse dagger throw (draw AND discard) and discard is one of the big silent strategies

[@carbonsiren]

Also it is easier to scale Pommel Strike with Strength.

[@d1rachir]

It's a mod called Bestiary. You can find an overview of all of Baalors mods here: baalorlord.tv/mods

[@jamesbaker5614]

for the conversation about the boot. i see it as 2 things. an average damage increase, as in it increases your average damage. the other way i see it is as a "scaling buffer". if you're using we're cards, mostly talking about silent which i guess technically doesn't really have strength scaling. but regardless, it keeps your weaker cards stronger until your scaling passes it. which is i guess a long winded way of explaining point one, as again that just increases your minimum damage, which increases your average damage. but whatever

Are these titles and captions randomly generated?

[@rezuredragon]

They're kinda formulaic but I think it's still down to the editor/whoever's handling the channel. There was a brief period where Baalor's "speech" at the beginning of videos was AI/TTS but I think those stopped. The description is a template that sometimes gets forgotten to be edited.

[@codegeek98]

I, for one, am in the "scared of Time Eater" population. What's the general approach for him?

[@ogolthorp]

You need some way to scale so your cards can become efficient. Basically want to be getting a big effect from a small number of cards. This could mean burst catalyst, high strength gain, malaise. And some sort of way to manipulate your draws for the turns where you get -1 draw is really helpful.

[@SheyD78]

Don't forget to save a strength down card like dark shackles or piercing wail for his debuff clear turn if you can manage it, since he'll 'forget' his buffed strength and be reset to 0 (assuming you can get it to a negative number)
