Can Dan and I Win A Spelunky 2 Co-op Run? (GECS)

Dan and I are checking out Spelunky 2 co-op! The catch? Either we beat Hundun or we take a bite out of a raw eggplant. Check it out!

Dan begging him to exit as the ghost devours his soul while NL goes for three gold bars is the best thing I've seen all week.

There are 13 MTG cards with the word Verdant in the name: - Verdant Automaton, a 1/2 artifact creature that can token up - Verdant Catacombs, a land you can sac to get a swamp or forest and shuffle - Verdant Confluence, a sorcery that applies 3 buffs to your mobs - Verdant Crescendo, a sorcery that allows you to get a land and a planeswalker out of your deck - Verdant Eidolon, a 2/2 spirit you can sac for mana - Verdant Embrace, an enchant that gives +3/+3 and generates token creatures - Verdant Field, enchant a land to tap it and give a creature +1/+1 for a turn - Verdant Force, 7/7 elemental that spawns token creatures - Verdant Haven, enchant a land to gain 2 life once and then make extra mana - Verdant Rebirth, an instant that allows you to return a slain creature to your hand and draw - Verdant Succession, an enchant that allows you to search for a green nontoken creature of the same name when one dies - Verdant Sun's Avatar, 5/5 dinosaur that heals you by the toughness of creatures you summon - Verdant Touch, sorcery that turns a land into a 2/2 land creature Additionally, there are 7 cards that have "verdant" in their flavor text: - Farhaven Elf, green 1/1 elf with land search on summon, "Verdant bloom does exist. It merely hides for its own safety" - Feral Maaka, red 2/2 cat, "Lost are the lush meadows and verdant forests..." - Hour of Reckoning, white sorcery that destroys nontoken creatures, "Ravnica, like a hedge, must be pruned, leaving only leaves of verdant uniformity" - Ixalli's Keeper, 2/2 shaman, absurdly expensive sac to give a creature +5/+5 trample for a turn, "... Ixalli is the verdant sun..." - Jungle Creeper (aw man), 3/3 elemental you can return from graveyard, with a quote by Atiuru, priest of the Verdant Sun - Sanctum of the Fruitful Harvest, mana generating enchant, "Beneath bright blossoms / Verdant with spring's rich bounty, / The soul blooms in song." (that's a nice flavor haiku) - Shizo, Death's Storehouse, a land that can fear target legendary creature for a turn, "Centuries ago, Shizo was a verdant field of wildflowers. After 891 samurai died in a single battle on its grasses, it became a haunted moor." I still have no idea what Dan was referring to but here you go, you are now an expert in everything verdant in MTG.

I think considering the stakes of the hun dun fight, Dan did a pretty good job. The panic coupled with the negativiticity from the egg would’ve made just about any man lose that. He needed the bombs for sure, he did take a little while to do it, but if I were egg I would’ve just sat there in silence hoping for the best. Either way, I have never had such genuine laughter from the bickering and just chaos from this coop. Should definitely do more of these
