Ngl, this actually makes crooked penny a lot more valuable, it almost feels intentional how easy it seems to perform.

[@SlayXc2]

The 4 frame window makes it way easier to use than the bomb cancel. However, I would still suggest trying it a few times to get the hang of it :P

[@LoraLoibu]

time to rig harder than albino

[@Rain1]

This changes my perspective on crooked penny completely. This is the poor man's reusable diplopia.

[@rewqff]

Or is diplopia now the poor man’s 1 use crooked penny just with a 100% success rate

[@Rain1]

@@rewqff step aside diplopia, because crooked penny is one of the items ever made

[@MrQstieRc]

After this vid I will call this item 'Crooked diplopia'.

[@nothingman126]

now i see crooked penny slightly different, from 50-chance-run-ruined to a potential run breaker because ngl this trick looks pretty easy to use and its very very useful

[@somebodytotallynottelling4584]

It's decently useful without tricks to snag Shop or Devil Room items you'd otherwise not be able to get. However, that role's been somewhat usurped by later items like Coupon or Mr. Me, and a lot of people just go exclusively for Angel Rooms these days. I'll definitely be using it more with this trick, though.

[@no_mnom]

@@somebodytotallynottelling4584 it makes going for early alt floor good cause you can get 2 items per floor

[@TwentySeventhLetter]

@@somebodytotallynottelling4584 This item works all the better than those other ones for Angel rooms anyway, since it has this interaction with choice pedestals

[@inertia179]

Basically 50% damoceles

Edmund just added a new bullet point to his update list lol

[@averagexijinpingenjoyer2417]

Crooked penny has won 5+ runs even without knowing this trick, and it's probably gonna win me several more now that I know this

[@lukasmuller1274]

crooked penny has lost me every run i had it so far, always lose the 50/50

[@averagexijinpingenjoyer2417]

@@lukasmuller1274 Sounds like a skill issue to me

[@gabrieldogilev1549]

even before i knew of this i thought crooked penny was a great item, especially on things like greed mode. theres quite a bit of situation where crooked penny has no risk attached to it, if you cant buy the devil deal you can just gamble it, and if you lose it you wouldnt have been able to buy it anyways, this can also apply to shop or those rare item pedestals behind rocks which you can find early with no bombs. it can be especially powerful in the greed shop using the same logic as the aformentioned deal, always thought it was underrated

[@ieToastie]

If I have crooked penny in greed mode, I always use it in the shop once I’m done with a floor. You either walk away with an extra penny, or an entire shop filled with goodies!

[@costy7106]

@@ieToastie I also do the same,however,when the shop has a reroll box,I always try the crooked penny whenever it's charged and when the shop items aren't that great to be worth the 15 pennies each

[@DinMamma002]

Should be pretty safe in Greed mode with the reroll machine.

[@johnclark926]

Huh. I never knew the hitboxes still stayed there even without the regular disappearing poof animation

[@SlayXc2]

I used it to show that I am not talking out of my a** with the 4 frames 😅

[@EnemyAC130Aboveu]

I hate crooked penny as I ALWAYS loose my items I want to dupe, this will give me the reason to give it a try again, thanks

[@smore9831]

Skill....ah, luck issue?, thats new, weird

[@enzoqueijao]

​@@smore9831 No, it's always a skill issue. Isaac is a perfectly balanced game and does not rely on any luck whatsoever.

[@Knit0706]

Crooked penny was already my favorite active item in the game. I may use this from time to time while gambling my entire run.

[@GustavRex]

You're actually a life saver, damn, nice! Thank you so much! You have so many great tips, it's insane haha. I would have probably never learned these if you didn't post them! :)

i saw the cool beggers and liked and followed great content!

[@ignacioconcha8927]

I found a really specific break In the void if you somehow manage to get a sacrifice room (in my case i did it with the red key) you will clear all the bosses of the void (you can take the items) and then tp to the dark room with the sacrifice room, in the dark room if you are lucky to get a void to get back to the void the floor is gona have exactly the same layout, the only difference its the bosses spawn new items

[@user-ds6ct5uu9b]

Yooo I waited for you to talk about this feature... It was mentioned in one of Magicaleye's vid not so long ago, but I hadn't got an idea it works with options

Crooked Penny is my favourite item, I APPROVE THIS. Hopefully more people will appreciate it now with this trick!

[@kontobiol3020]

Nice video, BIG LIKE

[@hydroneeon119]

now this video makes this item more valueable

[@metauseesports7708]

There is another cool trick with the glowing hour glass. You can go to a room and use crooked penny. If the items disappear, then turn back the time and use the crooked penny anywhere else

[@NyctalopeDiurne]

I have to try that. Danke schön!

[@Konata_Kon]

SlayXc always shows me that there are no "bad" items in isaac, some have bigger minuses, some lesser, and every item has a way to use

[@eltiolavara9]

very true ...aside from shard of glass

[@Konata_Kon]

@@eltiolavara9 I understand TMTrainer, but shard of glass is good actually.

[@eltiolavara9]

​@@Konata_Kon yeah it can still be good in specific situations but not often also i actually like tmtrainer

[@gigaspin6595]

Random comparison that might help someone in case you have difficulty with the timing. 4 frames is also the window you have to wall kick in Mario 64. So theoretically if you can wall kick in that game you can do these tricks in Isaac. Granted it's still different but sometimes just making a comparison to something you already know can help. (Just a note in case anyone's confused, I'm specifically talking about original SM64, not DS.)

[@Tlanesi]

Can't walljump but this is an easier visual stimuli.

[@angel_of_rust]

what's a wall kick

[@orangoru4061]

He killed them… all of them (I knew this trick from a lavencas video)

So basically you turn crooked penny into counterfit penny for all types of things not just coins

[@lol1013]

kilburn will fix it in the patch now :P probably by nerfing duplicated choice pedestals

Could you potentially use this in the Death Certificate area to nab one or maybe more items before leaving?

[@mateistegarescu8351]

Well depends on the room If there is a big room that has sacred heart at the bottom and magic mush at the bottom you may need some speed plus i think it also deasapear if you pick any other item
