When you passed up the tier 3 stick i lost my mind🤣🤣

[@S1mChunky]

same i was so anoyed he didnt even lock it

[@alanhong99]

Lucky is one of the easiest characters i think. The luck boosting the rng in shop and crates is simply enormous.

[@potato.1232]

Ya I got my first win with him 😂

[@allikin75]

Thank you for all your great content! I have a tip that I don't think I have ever heard any youtuber or streamer talk about. Maybe it's because it's obvious, but personally I didn't notice until about 100 hours of playtime: When you pick up red crates you heal up fully. Maybe something worth mentioning when you get to your elite/boss video. Love your stuff!

[@LordKronsell]

It was mentioned on another video of his, somewhere, theres so many xD

[@JandarLefey]

Slingshot Lucky is one of my favorite “random things to play for stress relief” in this game. Lucky was my second Danger 5 win, and I honestly consider him in the top quarter of character power in this game

[@zocker2586]

how do u even play lucky slingshot im on my 10th run and i cant get past wave 11 on danger THREE wth

[@Plutoniumdrache]

brotato is life, brotato is love

[@onlybails678]

Randomly started playing this on ps5 and I am now addicted 😂

[@JaHoodie]

Man I fucking love this channel. Stumbled upon it while searching a bg3 build and I see that you also play brotato. Love your energy btw!

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Thanks so much! Appreciate the kind words :D

[@mackberry8497]

Any updated guides for new players? Game looks fun and plan to play it when it drops on Game Pass this month.

[@nerdjournal]

Brotato comes to game pass in 2 days. I picked it up in a combo with Death Must Die a last month though. I'm not great at this game. I'm way better at the other horde survivor bullet heaven games.

[@Abjagaydydyd739]

Wait are you playing my favorite game 😮

[@roberthiltz2741]

That was a lot of fun! I was surprised to hear that you were under the impression from comments about the ineffectiveness of lucky, from my experience every run with lucky is a good one. I love the random damage effects

[@Cephalopocalypse]

I've always thought Lucky was very strong, and I think the general consensus has caught up to that a bit, but when I did my guide to Lucky a *lot* of the comments were about how weak they thought the character was

[@gendalfbeast213]

Ironic enough, every my run with Lucky wasn’t lucky

[@EliCarney-q9w]

This will be top comment for no reason.

[@Cephalopocalypse]

I'm rooting for it!

[@OverSizedArt]

Had to scroll for 2 minutes to find it

[@Orangepea774]

It was for me 😭

[@DyIanGaming]

This is my first time ever seeing something brotato related other than the cover art I was so confused but it looks cool it reminds me of flash Isaac’s art style

[@DatShadyGuy]

Lucky isn't the worst character in the game (that title goes to Jack), but it definitely has one of the worst penalties in the game with that XP penalty. The attack speed penalty can be worked around, though I prefer to get it out of negative completely. I think one of the absolute necessities for Lucky is a high speed. That being said, Lucky/Speedy GMO modded character, perhaps?

[@Erlewyn]

Jack is really only awful in danger 5. Characters like Streamer are always bad.

[@yao8]

This build doesnt work.... You get overwhelmed by the first boss elite wave. Just tried 5 times, boxes dont spawn as much as like in your video even tho I have like 200 luck lol.

[@VarjoFilosofi]

Just finished Lucky using Engineering. Turrets and mines kill enemies and you mostly just need to run all around and collect resources and almost everything dies. Had trouble with the first elite, but the end bosses managed to kill.

[@PatBiggyRL]

Would you say loud is good?

[@PatBiggyRL]

Also love the channel I subbed on the first video and I new to brotato I only beat difficulty 0

[@Erlewyn]

23:10 did you mean to skip the stick there?

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Probably not! Though this build doesn't really need to upgrade the sticks (which don't upgrade super well past 2 anyways) so it's not a big deal either way

[@pilotplayer9861]

I love this channel that is all

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Thanks very much!

[@nathanclarke7162]

I really don't understand people thinking lucky is the worst character either. It was 1 of my first d5 wins and I play it a lot for fun. The downside of attack speed can be fixed quickly and 100 free luck is insane. Also the luck damage passive more than makes up for the attack speed deficit. I just don't understand

[@giangargo669]

lucky is one of my favourite channels, i do a engeneer build with him, you want more trees for more crates and you can use the turrets coming from the trees amazing synergy, it got me to wave 38 without breaking a sweat

[@seanmahoney379]

I mean really the characters aren’t random truly you don’t do repeats so we know we’re gonna see each eventually the only random element to that is the order by witch we see them and the weapons used

[@quincentupleyourmoney5650]

I'd love to see a challenge where you either randomize a character or pick whoever you want, then not only randomize weapons, but you then have to take every weapon that comes up in the shop (as long as you can afford it). Keep doing that throughout the run. I sure as shit couldn't win it, but I think you could lol

[@kultrasentertainment945]

Do you consider playing Starship Scramble in Steam Fest? clearly inspired by Brotato but has some unique touch to the game.

[@thedeaderer8791]

Best advice ive ever gotten on brotato." Just find three bags". 😂❤

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Works every time!

[@JMichaelC98]

Buying ritual when you had pocket factory and zero life steal made me sad for the turret buddies

[@lolimmune]

When I see people online say "lucky bad" all I think is, wtf luck is an insane stat.

[@fraiday7292]

The only class I can't beat on D5 is the streamer. I don't know what keeps screwing me over.

[@alanhong99]

+1

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Streamer is imo the hardest character so you are not alone! My guide for it is pretty comprehensive though, that's one of the most detailed ones I've done

[@fraiday7292]

​​@@Cephalopocalypse that's right, I remember seeing your streamer guide. Trust me, I'll be watching that guide again when I can.

[@tbrownz950]

At 3:07 I replayed it super slow like wait was there a cut there or is my brain just making things up. I always forget to just let the video play out a few seconds longer. Cheers to another great run! Love this series.

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Haha yep, I try to mention when I have to make a cut of some sort for that reason but sometimes it's gonna get people anyways :P

[@dandimit8463]

Thx for the help!

[@jameskeiser2575]

U kinda sound like the I’m actually kid

[@thedeaderer8791]

Who TF out here saying lucky is bad......lol any one who says that sucks at brotato

[@Cephalopocalypse]

An awful lot of people! The guide I did to Lucky something like half the comments were about how weak they thought the character was. I don't get it myself, I've always thought it was really powerful

[@Milonpepsi]

Why didn't you get the tier 3 stick to max it💀

[@icthulu]

You got me thinking about luck and item shops. So I counted all the items that showed up in the shop by rarity using the Gladiator run of yours with -26 luck and this Lucky run at +200 luck Gladiator chances of a common item in the shop out of 50 shop rolls (171 items): 58% 99 Commons 31% 53 Uncommons 10% 17 Rares 1% 2 Legendaries Lucky chances of a common item in the shop out of 75 shop rolls (281 items): 48% 135 Commons 34% 96 Uncommons 14% 38 Rares 4% 12 Legendaries You were totally right. But strange that the Dev was of a different opinion... Maybe the coding changed slightly? Thanks for reading and enjoy your content as always.

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Interesting - thanks for doing the work! I wonder if he meant that shop level has *more* of an effect than luck, which is definitely true

[@icthulu]

@@Cephalopocalypse That would make sense. Outside of wave drops, I think that having more money would be a better investment for just a 10% increase on rarer items in shop by buying luck. But this game is nice in allowing players to play your own way.

[@BrandyHoelscher]

Good game

[@PatBiggyRL]

Would you say the guns and weapons that give you stat points each 20 hit are good cause one I got like 95 damage, health, and attack speed?

[@slayerstudios8162]

I've found a interesting one is MultiTasker As many Ethereal Axes as u can nab for a bit till about 125-150% extra DMG, early in the run about 2-4 axes or combine 2 so it's more likely to Get the 1up ghost sep to start getting HP, gradually Increase When you get 125+% dmg Swap to guns and if want keep 2 axe 2 Ghost

[@slayerstudios8162]

Attack speed seems to help as well but yes it's good

[@nicolaspoyet3548]

Thanks for your help

[@lorendetels4205]

wow! Stunning run!

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Thanks! This was a really fun one

[@benjaminshephard6103]

This will be top comment for no reason at all.

[@volikson9495]

Bro it was

[@JakHart]

You over explain waaaay too much.

[@warttan]

Hello

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Hi!

[@FruitFire]

I wish you condensed this into a 10 or 15 minute video. I love your explanations and all, and it's kind of satisfying/stress relieving, but I don't get much time. And I'm sure many people can relate to this.

[@ewanb0100]

No?

[@FruitFire]

@@ewanb0100 ?

[@rb1051]

Yeah I agree. He should upload it into 30 second shorts

[@imrigez3224]

Vampire survivors is better

[@_w1k5]

You talk too much 😒😒
