Been playing a lot of Slay the Spire--for fun, sure, but also to get better at designing certain dynamics and mechanics. Anyway, love to have reached A20 on (arguably) the most unforgiving class.
Let's see if I can get a win. Eventually.

in reply to @axel's post:
Silent was definitely the most painful. It's so easy to spec into a deck that one of the two Act 3 bosses demolishes.
That's exactly the pain I'm feeling right now. I breeze through Act 1 by assembling cards that demolish elites then inevitably end up speccing into something that won't survive that double Act 3 showdown. Or I don't make it out of Act 1 at all. Act 2's generally a fine if scary time.
At this point it feels like I need to luck into Dead Branch and a low-cost exhaust deck, or a Shuriken/Kunai shiv deck with poison on top. It's rough.
(I feel like I need to stop largely ignoring Concentrate and go for maximum cycling--at least for some builds.)
