WORST WEAPON WOES - Chunky Torch - Brotato Danger 5 Random / Random

The torch might be the worst weapon in the game, with no synergy with the character! Can we make it work anyways?
Random class, Random weapons, going for win win rate and win streaks!
Detailed tutorial and gameplay for Brotato 1.0.1.3 on max difficulty, including the unique mechanics, best build, and tips for this class. This run features some difficult decisions!

[@roberthiltz2741]

I’m stoked also! You made a lot of different choices than I would have, but it all worked out

[@KurtKatze4fk]

Woohoo! Thanks to your guides i am finally free :D Managed to beat danger 5 with all the classes. Streamer was the last one and it sucked.... a lot.... slings though, slings are good but you really need a few high income waves to get ahead of the curve. Not necessary to do it as consistently as you, but for a scrub like me aiming to get high income from waves 6/7/8/9 (2 of those at least)really helped.

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Nice, congrats! Feels good to get all of them :D

[@Papyrusliker]

Those torches were certainly chunky!

[@lorendetels4205]

Wow! I wouldn't even try this combo. Well done on the win.

[@azulcrescent715]

That’s actually amazing run. I think the adrenaline could have paid off without the two frogs tho ahaha. I think you found like 7 peaceful bees which is quite wild. GGs!

[@sibah8314]

Really impressive!

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Thanks!

Day 2: Hey man, could you try this: Explorer with cacti clubs, mines, turrets etc and go mostly for elemental damage and scared sausage? Kind of like you are dealing damage over time all over the map :) Also like many comments, endless runs are very much wanted

[@szatuchny]

I really wanted to see you do this run with the wand that increases health, so I was going to refresh the page and try to reroll for that weapon, when I realized what reality I was living in.

[@Cephalopocalypse]

I do this all the time

[@DatShadyGuy]

I've heard from other people that play this game that Luck doesn't always work as intended-crates not dropping like they should, shops not giving high tier items, etc. Maybe there's something else in the RNG that affects it?

[@Cephalopocalypse]

I think it's pretty hard to tell from observation since the numbers are pretty small, but in my experience it definitely has a noticeable effect. The enemy type (different enemies have different crate drop rates) has much more of an impact than luck though, so it might be that that they're seeing?

[@Erlewyn]

Something I never really noticed, and it's hard to check: if you leave off double materials, do they become triple materials the next wave, or are you at this point actually losing money?

[@Cephalopocalypse]

So you don't lose money, but they also don't become triples - they just add two to the bank so you get that many more doubles dropping in the next wave

[@Erlewyn]

@@Cephalopocalypse Oh, I see… Good to know!

[@AdamTrux]

Balatro time did you play it yet?

[@Cephalopocalypse]

I have and it's great! When I get to higher ante levels I'll almost certainly make a guide

[@Jaberelallaoui]

I died at wave 20 with this caracter many times lets see what you do with it

[@aceyirngaut662]

I was looking for a King guide the other day, only found 2 R/R runs with him. Ended up trying for the Fisherman, still can't beat his class even on Danger 0. I am frustrated with the Fisherman and he is quickly becoming my least favourite Class

[@RayleReaper]

Two quick tips are, Spears are great for fisherman, and you really need to be aggressive on your baits. 2+ early, 4-5 sometimes later.

[@Cephalopocalypse]

Fisherman is imo the hardest character, so I don't blame you! You can find my guide to fisherman (and king) if you check the brotato class guides" playlist on my channel - I have a guide for every single class there
