6/16/2023 0 Comments The silent slay the spireI say all of this, but you really can't count on being able to build a given deck on a given run - which matters more if you're trying to get consistent than if you're just trying to get a couple wins under your belt. I don't have a Watcher suggestion - she's very strong but a bit tricky to use. As Ironclad, you might try a Body Slam deck, which can deal big damage without sacrificing defense. So pick up most cards offered to you in act 1. At the start of a run, basically anything you pick up is an improvement over your starting deck, and before you have any cards, you don't have anything to synergize with. There are only cards that don't fit your deck. There are no truly terrible cards in Slay the Spire. Have at it, Talking Time, help me kill a building's heart or whatever. How do you salvage a rough start? What are some things that might not be obvious for a new player? What are the mistakes I probably don't know I'm making? I don't care at all about spoilers (I've unlocked all four characters already), if there even are spoilers for a game like this, so whatever you think might be helpful is fair game. I know a lot of this is just being new to the game, but I could really use some help developing more consistency in general. It's so expensive to remove a card from your deck that I don't want to take something mediocre only to have to ditch it later. A lot of the time, the game starts by offering me cards that just don't seem very good, so I end up taking nothing, and by the time I find something worth building around I might already be outclassed by stronger enemies. The hardest part for me is the early game. ![]() While I understand the basics of the deckbuilding genre - find synergies, remove as many non-synergy cards from your deck as possible - I've been having a lot of trouble putting them into practice. Earlier tonight I had an amazing Shiv run with the Silent completely faceplant at the final boss, because it was the Time Eater. I've reached the boss of Act 3 several other times, but that's usually where things fall apart. Both were with strength-heavy builds, one revolving around Heavy Blade (with Snecko Egg, of all things) and the other Perfected Strike. I've done nearly 30 runs so far (mostly with the Ironclad, I branched out into the Silent today), and only had two wins so far. I'd like to be less bad! I know we've got some real masters around here, so I figured it's time to ask for help. Years after everyone else, I finally picked up Slay the Spire and while I'm having a good time, I am very bad at this game.
