What’s the most damage you’ve got with Pressure Points?

[@trevorlebert1929]

8

[@WCIIIReiniger]

@@trevorlebert1929 I guess we have a winner!

[@Questioningbasics]

I've played Spire for 2 years and didn't know some relics make noises until now. Need a loop of the Damaru drum sound.

[@zamplify]

Tingsha is my fave

[@Ryusuta]

Even though it goes against basically all of the Watcher's normal mechanics, Pressure Points runs are consistently BY FAR the most fun I've had with the character. It's just such a hoot.

[@fiddlefox]

Really informative run. I rarely take Dome because I'm not that familiar with attack patterns, but I feel like I learned a lot from this run.

[@hamstergod402]

On my first watcher run, I added 2 pressure points by floor 8, then I got Pandora’s box after the boss. Pandora’s box had 3 pressure points in it, and let’s just say it got into silly ville. I managed to kill the act 3 boss on turn one. I actually thought this card was top teir..... till I realized it was only good with itself.

[@jakestavinsky3480]

Thats not true- it has plenty of synergy with Scry and Draw. It just doesn't synergize with Wrath, which lets Watcher do nuttier things

[@thomasneal9291]

Good card with any infinite that generates energy

[@brianserafino8717]

28:20 Love the reference! “Weeoowee!” Love the videos 👍

[@hamyncheese]

I'm so excited. Nobody ever plays Pressure Points on Watcher...at least nobody I've been watching. I lost track of your channel months ago. Glad it popped up again for me! Subscribed now!

[@qazzaqstan]

9:56 Lagavullins might just be narcoleptic ambush you and then immediately fall asleep. Also I love pressure points being mostly useless until heart fight. Or rather I kind of hate how bad it was despite there being so many copies, but it was fun to see it eventually do something. Also I'm never picking it again after seeing this, I was already kind of leaning that way but oof.

[@matthesseling7168]

I had a run the other day where I ended up turning down 4 pressure points in Act 1 alone. Wished I had gone in on it from the beginning.

[@Ghorda9]

it's not really a bad pick for act one even if you don't find another one, just keep the deck small, remove strikes and avoid gremlin nob.

[@TravisWasntAvailable]

This run has it all! What a thing of beauty :D Crazy what you can get away with when you bottle Scrawl.

[@AvangionQ]

38:08 I'm looking forward to your Downfall runs ... please run every Downfall character twice, the second time with ascension 1 going elite hunting and all the way to defeat Neow

[@Questioningbasics]

Didn't know about base mod giving you an orb slot with Foreign Influence either! Notably this means Meteor Strike created via Foreign Influence+ is much better on PC than on console/mobile. 4 extra energy instead of nothing.

[@duanefouche378]

Have you ever considered using mods? Would love to see you playing Downfall. Downfall if used by itself is pretty in line with the base game and feels more like a DLC or alternate game mode than a fan mod, it's fairly balanced too as they keep improving on it even to this day. Except for Neow... he belongs in Elden Ring.

[@fuduzlp]

Baalor uses multiple mods, and he recently played downfall on stream, I recommend watching the VOD's on twitch although he said they might come to youtube as well

[@Baalorlord]

Stay tuned 👀

[@gradybolte8077]

I'm a little late to the party here, but just wanted to say very cool run! One of my most favorite runs was a pressure points infinite I was able to craft. It used meditate, establishment and 2 sanctuaries. Required a little setup, but after meditating the pp and sanctuaries and making them 0 cost with establishment, it was smooth sailing. Super fun run.

[@RaichuWizDom]

"How would you get ambushed by something that's asleep?" Actually happened on Doom Patrol, turns out. Supervillain who gets insane strength when she's sleepwalking. Takes out Sunburst, one of Japan's 'regular' superheroes, even.

[@nickbarlow4270]

I love pressure points. One of my favourite cards 👍

[@isak6202]

I also love the concept of it. But sadly I feel it is sorta weak since you dant hav any other cards that plays into the mechanic so it gets outmatched by the other archtypebuilds for the watcher. The the main archtypes being like stancepivot, mantra, retain and wrathsetup

[@stompingpeak2043]

@@isak6202 it's still fun to use if you get multiple copies and have another way to deal damage

[@SomberScream]

28:20 "I'm coming!"

[@1TieDye1]

Would multiple stacks of master reality create searing blow with multiple upgrades?

[@lazthegreat10]

"actually it only does 102 DMG" -baalor about brilliance. Lol

[@911meltdown2]

I'm going to be getting a PC by the end of January and I am so looking forward to being able to finally use mods. So many new game mechanics and characters to learn with mods. I cant wait

[@mrinfinity5557]

You could make a whole Character around pressure points. Or at least a poison tier gimmick. What pressure points should say is "1-cost, remove all artifact, exhaust" and it upgrades to 0 cost

[@sun-does-shine]

Wouldnt that card be pretty unplayable? It feels like it would be an ascenders bane in most fights

[@mrinfinity5557]

@@sun-does-shine well then make it "1-cost, apply 1 vulnerable 1 weak one poison, exhaust" and it does the same thing but with added benefit. But i still think removing all artifact would be better, its useful in many late game fights which watcher struggles with (donu deca, the act 4 elites, the heart).

[@nicholasfriesen5227]

I am now very curious about what happened on the previous run as I did not catch the stream but it sounds like it was interesting

[@justteathankyou.3642]

Exuse me, Baalorlord, Which mod do you use to highlight map icons? Thanks for the videos, they're great!

[@davidkamps9879]

You got a like for the counter dad joke

[@jzoobs]

Damn that was an awesome deck extremely quickly

[@soulreaver6300]

This is my first time watching. I'm very confused at some of the choices made...

[@soulreaver6300]

Well, having watched the whole video I can say that I've learned a ton. You approach things way differently than I do and at first I couldn't see the method in the madness but now I can honestly say I've learned much about the character having watched this.

[@chromelambo3938]

What mods did you play with? If you can remember

[@blue_thingys8813]

I feel like I'd be more inclined to take pressure points if it went through artifact. Is that OP? Relative to everything else watcher can do, no lol

[@1TieDye1]

Any plans to play downfall for stream and youtube? Edit: nvm lol please bring some to youtubes though

[@STOKEDOS]

I guess these videos are probably just taken from streams, but I would love a little shorter videos to watch the content a little quicker. i know it's tough to condense but all these vids are movie length. idk how you'd apply that but its an idea

[@enigmaticheart666]

That would be an absolutely horrific idea, both from an analytics and content perspective; i would advise against watching StS if you need constant stimulation and jump cuts

[@Tejayes042383]

Omae wa mou shindeiru

[@Ddboyz465]

runs like these are seeded? maybe
