Another good aspect of TOTT that no-one mentions is that it's draw-neutral (doesn't increase the number of cards you have in your hand) each turn.

I disagree, rampage wins 1/3 to about 1/5 of the run mostly by itself, which allows you to skip on other strong early game cards you would not want later but would have needed to take otherwise.

In a vacuum i think pressure points is better than rampage as it bypasses block, scales with copies of itself and you may choose to divide the damage among more targets if you so choose, i believe it would be insane in a silent deck by itself but in a watcher deck it really makes no fucking sense. That said, i also think rampage is really bad and the reasons given here are bullshit as "it scales with strength and vulnerable" would also describe a basic strike, it only gets a pass because ironclad is weak overall and his lack of deckbuilding potential is supplemented by healing every floor.
@haph20873 ай бұрын
I had a run where Talk to the Hand + Tantrum (+ Fear no evil + Rushdown infinite) was my blocking solution, and Pressure Points was an excellent spiker solution for me. However, even with Wave of the Hand to absolutely demolish enemy artifact, Pressure Points still felt weak as an attack. I think the problem is just that the Watcher's primary draw/energy strategy (rushdown + stance dancing) involves better damage cards, and other methods (study/evaluate + deva/deus/collect) are kinda meh. Scrawl sortof works, but Scrawl + Stance powers + Stance dancing is soooo much better.

Judgements I disagree on: Tools of the trade: Good : Extra draw at least 2 turns from now, 0 cost power on upgrade meaning pellets synergy is high, already a very high synergy due to discard cards with the Silent Bad: Draw negative 1 turn, 1 turn draw Neutral, -1 Energy if not upgraded, if run is lucky on removable events it becomes worse I think its still a really good card, just for the fact that the Silent will almost always want to have discard synergy or at least pellets on them. Cards like eviscerate, sneaky strike, Reflex and tactitian as well as kite, tingsha and bandage are all REALLY good with this card because of the innate ability to discard. I think Rarran was done dirty on this one since his explanation was almost flawless. Pressure points: You really robbed him. He gave you every bit of explanation completely right and then ending off with "its leaning towards bad" This is a competition to "good" or "bad" and if he says "leaning bad" then its definitely not falling into the good category. (Also Alpha is worse, your last watcher win with pressure points showed how good it is. Either you take at least one omniscience and more draw +energy with watcher to make up for Alpha OR you take extra pps who are stacking faster than an Alpha will in single target fights and if played smart in AoEs as well) Rampage: Good: Ramp up for Bosses, decent scaling with small decks either by nature of by exhaust Bad: Fucking sucks for elites in A2-4, awful in AoE, NEEDS to attack to scale meaning if you draw this on a bad turn it wont scale at all for a whole rotation Very dependant on deck, if we go by the way you tried to make this consistent of in "will I play this more often than not?" then its still a 50/50. Its a glorified Strike on a character that likes to play aggressively, but has better options available as well as strength scaling most of the time anyway. Either answer is good here Rarran should've won this challenge 8-2

I would say the main consideration not brought up in the video is that Silent has a sick turn 1 so this card can make the rest of ur turns slightly better. That said if you draw it literally any other turn it feels garbage because you might be taking 20 and would rather be doing damage/blocking. However you would much rather be picking better rares/more synergistic cards. If it was a card you just got for free without using a card reward it would be much better, but the fact you mostly see it as a boss reward just makes it so much worse

If you don't get Acrobatics then yes Tools is decent but most of the time you would rather have Acrobatics because of the more immediate effect (and it is usually easier to find or cheaper to buy)

Meanwhile, tools of the trade that was deemed bad, goes positive by second round, if upgraded you start with it, so you gain the benefits as soon as possible and synergies with half the Silent card pool. Also notice that they didn't take cards that are good or bad in any situation. Like, why not judge Adrenaline? Because the answer is straight and you can't bs your way into saying it's bad.

Tools of the Trade beats Acrobatics spam for discard synergy. Acrobatics spam is 1 mana per turn for 1 discard each turn while Tools of the Trade is 1 mana per fight for 1 discard each turn. And it is only 1 card in your deck that removes itself so it doesn't block you from getting cards you want to spend your mana on. it is also only 1 card selection instead of several so it has lower opportunity cost. A 1 mana Power is not bloat, especially upgraded to 0 mana! I'd rank it around 30th percentile of The Silent's Rare cards, I'd only call 15-20th percentile bad... If you are calling everything in the 50th percentile bad then sure it is bad.

I think the problem with rating if a card is good or bad is that you build your deck as you play, and wont always be shown a card you're looking for. Ex:You said thousand cuts was bad because something like eviserate might be better more often, but thousand cuts is a card that can help solve the problem of "how do I do enough damage to kill enemies" and scales well with things silent already wants to do, but you dont need to take it if your deck already has a way to kill the enemies effectively. Once you've added cards that solve "how do I do damage" you dont really want to add more attacks or damage card even if they might be better than cards already in your deck

I got to A20 with the first 3 characters and now I'm climbing with Watcher (A6 rn) and my thoughts on Pressure Points is that it actually does have niche synergies with some Watcher cards. Signature Move, Swivel, Wreath of Flame + Multi-hit Moves like Ragnarok, etc, because it allows you to deal damage while not playing an attack card. Even with those synergies, the frequency of artifact on enemies makes it often a dead card. So I can't disagree with the rating, but it *does* have synergies

ill never forget the first time i chose wraith form. I didnt realize it was taking dex EVERY turn, thought it was just once for some reason. Really messed that run up obviously. Both, alpha and pressure point, i wanted to work so bad (knowing they werent good) that at various high acesions while moving up, i just got stuborn and went for them until they got me a win lol

Another thing that makes Rampage better than Pressure Points is that for Pressure Points the damage increase sticks on the enemy and vanishes when the enemy dies, whereas with Rampage, the damage increase sticks to the card and sticks around for the next enemy (in the same battle)

The only thing that matters in the distinction between Rampage and Pressure Points is that Gremlin Nob and Sentries exist. Rampage works in those fights and Pressure Points doesn't. Act 1 elite fights are crucial for securing relics for the rest of the run. It's the only reason Pressure Points isn't good and Rampage is.

Cool concept, but the execution was done very poorly. Wanting content doesn't mean make up stuff just to deduct points. Game would have ended 8-2 without the bs rules

Claw is really good with Scrape. One of my clears of the heart was with a deck that was mostly tons of 0 cost cards and like 6 Scrapes.

Ill never forget absolutely steamrolling ascension like 7 or 8 with unceasing top and clash and just being flat-out untouchable. I dont care if people consider it bad past ascension 10, it does not deserve the level of disrespect it gets.

I will admit I thought Mark was good until he mentioned no synergies. Like, come on game! It'd of been so easy to build up a couple of cards centered around building up mark. One card to draw all cards that apply mark from the deck, one card that applies 5 mark and gives you energy for every 5 mark on the target. Another card that reduces damage dealt by enemies for the turn by their mark. A power that applies 1~2 mark a turn and triggers damage at the same time. I get its not a main gimmick but it could of totally been great

18:00 Teacher I have the question! The cards description is ambiguous. Does the mana gained last for a turn, a whole fight, or a whole run? If a turn, then it's dogshit. If a fight, then it's mid at best but could go hard. If a whole run, then it's SSS+ tier.

YES. my favorite rarran content is his guest appearances rating other card games.
