I love how he’s complaining about how terrible the deck is while he’s flawlessing the boss

I tried Corruption the other day. Thought it was terrible & was waiting for the run to end for 3 straight acts, then I beat the heart for the first time with Ironclad. Silly game this is

The craziest deck I've ever had traded starting relic for boss relic and got plasma. Took reprogram like floor 2 and went to the moon. Was able to use loops for more energy, had a ton of draw, and used hologram to play reprogram about 3 or more times a turn. Ended the heart fight with 5 echo form effects active, 2 loops, and 92 of strength and dex without infinite. Great time

[@anybinobept9892]

Cool

[@AL1CE_]

Reprogram works very different now

[@acrazydutchman8683]

"from the moment I understood the weakness of my focus.... it disgusted me. I craved the strength and dexterity of reprogram. I aspired to the purity of the blessed snecko. Your kind cling to your biased cognition as if it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude deck you call a build will wither, and you will beg my kind to save you. But I am already saved, for the hologram all for one snecko eye combo is infinite."

[@matthewquirin3081]

Imagine using a single charge of omamori

[@Striner1772]

9:55 got me so hard. Perfectly summarized the neuron active when you see claw.

[@TheQuentinSK8]

Reprogram is a pog card when you get it early and can build around it. Defect doesn't have to go orbs all the time, focusless is just another archetype/way to play them.

[@adamlum4477]

Was able to bare witness to this -abomination- glorious deck on stream. Thank you papa Frost *mmmuah*

[@devgen9158]

wtf, reprogram has always been my favourite Defect card and the one I got to asc20 with

[@devgen9158]

Obviously not good generally, but when i can take it early I always take it))

[@Leopoldshark]

It is called Re Pog ram for a reason

[@ericzhan3454]

I had a run with Tempest, Thunder Strike, and Reprogram. Since str affected T strike many times, it effectively doubled my damage output while the dexterity allowed me to block and generate energy with charge batteries. That’s right, tempest on 0 effect lightning orbs. Beautiful.

[@gabrieldinix]

FINALLY a reprogram deck. I unironically like because it makes you play the defect in a different manner, kinda cringe that frost at the start was complaining so much about it

[@mikentikes11]

Unironically saying cringe is cringe

[@peterduck1204]

I don't think Frost realized he had a winning deck till after he had killed the heart, and even then he was confused lmfao

[@0_Body]

How many times is Frost going to go infinite? Frost: I am the infinite

[@diamondbox4047]

Hey Frost, I got a challenge: Make a Reprogram + Focus Build that actually works.

[@Sorfallo]

Orange Pellets

[@Say_Irish_Wristwatch]

That's actually usually the only time it does work lol.

[@BPRcod]

Awesome run but the constant over reaction about reprogram being bad was pretty annoying. If you get it early it’s insane, the negative doesn’t matter at all when you don’t pick orb cards, and frost said the class doesn’t scale when reprogram is literal scaling and makes EVERY card good in his deck. Even basic strikes and defends. Love frost but this tale is just straight ass

[@pavitanekwiang7860]

He forgot that in this game every card have its place... except clash

[@tommiigun]

I've tried so many times to get reprogram to work and this guy does it by accident. Bastard. I love him.

[@joelhaggis5054]

I don't know what game you're playing but it's not slay the spire

[@sanderdewulf3809]

Oh wait, this is the one where I joined the stream when Frost was going infinite against the heart, pog

[@loganwolford5242]

Ironically, I just finished a run where i had 5 sweeping beams, 5 charged batteries, and 3 reprograms and everything was upgraded with 5 energy. I felt like a god

[@normanbayona4636]

I watched this run on stream, and I loved it so much, I'm here to watch it again. Reprogram too strong.

The editing at 9:53 is one of one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Bravo Andrew.

ahh yes the ADHD defect. Hmm? No focus?

[@Seargent_Scraps]

Insane deck. Never really thought this was possible. Reprogram always seemed like a bad card but apparently not with the right build

[@tropicarls]

[@neilvye3701]

I lowkey have not been able to win a run with defect unless I’m using a reprogram deck

[@jamesmontgomery3818]

I know that negative focus is a big deterrent to going anything orb related. But why not a few coolheaded for draw and barrage to scale off the strength? That just seems like a strong core for a reprogram build. Lots of draw and damage. It's true I'm not the best sts player so maybe I don't see the obvious weakness. To much mana cost to cycle effectively?

[@Sightss_]

I think it's just a weird synergy. Cause to make that really good you have to invest into orb mechanics with both draw and energy, while gaining little. Like more orb slots and wasting the frost orbs. As well as having to actually block to live. I think it could work but it would be pretty bad untill all the pieces are in play if that makes sense.

[@Eipiczumby]

just skip and hope for Skim

[@jamesmontgomery3818]

@@Sightss_ That does make a lot of sense, thanks for taking the time to explain it. After reading your reply I can see how the first and second acts would be really hard when you've only got a couple pieces of this deck idea and no synergies.

[@birthdayzrock1426]

If a card has a circular outline it's a power.

[@nxtboy96]

@@birthdayzrock1426 If a card says "power" in the middle it's a power

[@mistborn5097]

@@birthdayzrock1426 I know how the game works, I just hardly ever look at reprogram long enough to read the name, let alone look at the border. Also, yes, the part of the card that says "Power" is a much better indication of if a card is a power or not. From what the card does I assumed it was a power in a similar vein to Fasting, like I said the first time.

[@birthdayzrock1426]

@@nxtboy96 No way what!?

[@optic_docka2747]

23:37, since you was recycling the hologram/all for one combo why not use that reprogramme at the same time to make the fight finish faster with the infinite scaling? (i know this is 2 years later but i couldn't understand why you'd want to drag it out)
