Literally as addictive as crack

Post deck. You might have too many attacks, not enough relics, etc.

I've tried the three first classes, got my shit pushed in every time.
I also don't understand how you are supposed to build a decent deck with those random cards you have to choose from.
It always ends up being an unpleasant mess to play.

Literally play Monster Train instead. It BTFO slay the spire.

Don't pick cards that you don't want. Pick good relics.

Is there any reason I should invest time in those daily leadership runs?

I like Slay more.

It needs more enemies and bosses. It starts to get repetitive after a few runs. Also the artstyle is very low-effort and atrocious.

Idk but Monster Train has a lot more depth and receives content a lot faster. Slay the spire added 1 more character in like a year.

I just don't like the floor system Monster Train has.

Slay the spire is just garbage. Monster Train deserves the spotlight, not Slay the spire.

Your opinion I guess.

It’s a fact.

During act 1, try picking cards that are good on their own. Make sure you have around the same amount of attacks and blocks, card draw is always good.
Then around act 2, you should be deciding the direction of your deck. Pick cards that work with the ones you already have, skip if there aren't any.
Act 3, almost always skip unless it's something you really need.
Remove strikes and defends from your deck whenever you can, they're bad cards that dilute your deck.
Relics are what helps you scale into the late game, try to get as many as you can.

How? It's so repetitive.

Remove strikes.
Try to fight more elites in Act 1, which typically means picking up strong attacks. Try to fight more in Act 1 in general, to get more card rewards to mold your deck.

At the very least, DO NOT take Iron Wave with Ironclad, that card is fucking shit. This is basically a universally agreed opinion.

A lot of rare cards are ironically not that good on Silent. Doppleganger is garbage.

Reprogram on Defect is also pretty shit, but that's just my opinion.

Boss relics, you often want to grab one of the energy relics.

For fun?

Alright, I might give it another try.

The game wasn't so much of an overtuned mess in the past beta but it grew into this monstrosity over time, sadly.

Iron Wave is the one that attacks and also adds block, right? How is that bad? I always found it pretty useful, especially since it's an attack rather than a skill.

Basically two parts:

The numbers for the card aren't that great.
It takes up a spot in your deck, which means you aren't drawing a better card in its place. And this reason is the main one on why you should remove strikes/not pick a card every time you're offered one.

I hope the other characters get some slight buffs to put them closer to Watcher's bullshit levels.

if he cant even beat it once on any character, thats a problem with him
overtuning doesn't come into play until ascensions
