THE FLYING OORAYOORI

[@georgefundulea5286]

Ive made a build where the squirrel would give me an ant everytime I play one and it was an infinite army of ants

[@personhuman2239]

You had to have been fucking with us man

[@ahoy5808]

The immortal bee combo is the funniest thing I've seen in this game

[@crashcoptr]

I mnaged to win my first run with totems by lucking into the immortal squirrel totem. Infinite sacrifices, and you are only capped by the board space.

[@Xraypod]

The best one I ever got was something I nicknamed the “fecundi-bee”, a bee which managed to get 3 sigils of fecundity at the same time. Place the bee and ya’ get 3 more bees. Got this via fucudity totem + fecundity already on beehive. 0 clue how I got a 3rd one tho…

[@hexkirn]

@@Xraypod did it inherit the totem and normal sigil from the beehive and gain another from the totem directly? I'm not entirely sure how the hive passes on the sigils.

[@sif3398]

It's really busted too because you basically don't need to draw squirrels

[@Xraypod]

@@hexkirn It got one from the hive directly. What I think happened is because the hive has fecundity and the totem was bug fecundity (meaning 2 fecundity on the hive, but acted as 1 for some reason), the bees were given 2 fecundity from the hive and 1 from the totem, meaning 3 fecundity that actually just gave 3 copies of the card when played.

[@jsmallzee1590]

Big oof on the flying cat. But hey, its those moments you'll remember when you reflect on how amazing a game Inscryption is. It's a game of learning from your mistakes, I loved it so much!

[@LycanFerret]

Does the Water sign(hides during opponent attacks) work on the Cat? Making it immortal to both sacrifice and damage, without rendering its sacrifice useless? Or does it hide during card draws too?

[@Ozyrox14]

@@LycanFerret It does work, but you've made a tile vulnerable to attack. In the case of unkillable via direct attack (which is the first thing I use on the cat lol) you're blocking from direct dmg while having infinite sacrifice. Its best to use on a made up card though because you can set the cost to 0 (from a pelt or if you get lucky from a squirrel or geck)

it seems to be a common trait where people learn stuff, get good at it (debateable - many backseaters were actually giving completely wrong info), then forgot they were ever not good at it and that they had to learn it too. humans be weird

[@BlossoMz_-]

@@doggosuki exactly my thoughts, every person who told him that he did something wrong or whatnot was literally in his same position when they first played the game lol. of course Otz will be ignorant to some strategy or good card because he literally is playing for the first time!! allow the man to learn as he goes. failure is the best way to learn and is so applicable to a game like this!

to the people watching these streams, ask yourself these two simple questions before writing a message in chat: 1) Am I telling otz to do something, without being asked to? 2) Am I revealing information that otz does not yet know, without being asked to? number 1 is called backseating number 2 is called giving spoilers in just two easy steps, you can become a good boy in twitch chat TODAY!

@@mobilegamesonly3170 if he wants advice, then sure, but giving advice for stuff that he would figure out anyway through playing the game can be just as annoying. i think advice is fine as long as otz asks for it, or if he has misunderstood something and to correct him (like, "hey otz you can sacrifice the smoke" when its clear he didn't know that and was skipping over it every time), but other than that, i think its better to just let him figure it out for himself

[@bamboozled614]

I can't believe you're actually playing this game that's great!

[@Left4Sharkbait]

I think it's important to let him learn, and I understand everyone learns at a different pace, but I have absolutely no idea how Otz did not come to grasp that the red numbers with the dial behind it on the Mighty Leap Sigil page in the rulebook was for the safe, and then he decides to ignore it when chat tells him it's for the safe, even though the numbers were revealed to him on purpose behind the game, meaning he was fully intended to discover the passcode after his first death, with or without the Stoat telling him about it. Other than that, I have to keep in mind that other people operate differently. EDIT: Okay it's really only a bit rough for the first hour, he starts to get the hang of everything after that.
