I love how this run perfectly shows the both the power and the malicious downside of busted crown. NL was right his deck had almost everything it needed when he picked up the crown. But near the end of the run he was still struggling to use up all his energy. He passed on a single acrobatics but he didnt really see any other card draw enablers. The crown had essentially turned itself into a strict debuff by the end because he wasnt able use up the energy because of the card rewards being worse.

[@laatrommi]

this is one of the coolest synergies i've seen! my misunderstanding of envenom prevented me from ever using something like this. of course everyone in the comments still wants to be a critic despite it being the strongest deck he's had so far!
