accountmadeforants: @Juliamon Almost certainly, there are already plenty of duplicate TZ entries in the IANA database (there are lots of fun comments in there, too, about historical dates when DST wasn't observed for whatever reason)
accountmadeforants: Getting it directly from IANA is a bit of a pain, but there's a GitHub repo with all the latest stuff in here. But this is the kind of fun stuff I was talking about: https://github.com/eggert/tz/blob/d63b92876ee6b57061fa8fb30500fcd11dbe9271/northamerica#L1946
accountmadeforants: # From Paul Eggert (2019-07-25): # Shanks says Fort Nelson did not observe DST in 1946, unlike Vancouver. # Alois Treindl confirmed this on 07-22, citing the 1946-04-27 Vancouver Daily # Province. He also cited the 1946-09-28 Victoria Daily Times, which said # that Vancouver, Victoria, etc. "change at midnight Saturday"; for now, # guess they meant 02:00 Sunday since 02:00 was common practice in Vancouver.
Juliamon: ah, a handful of lines below that it's talking about the new change

Brozard: Is the stretching happening on my end?
its_safety_third: that's just the order you drew them in
Days_one: left to right in hand does not matter iirc
korvys: They attack left to right, I think, but you can target whoever
niccus: not really, there is a left-right thing that is only in very specific fights
farley_f: no - you can hit everyone
lamina5432: who you kill can matter, depending on what they do to you
gibbousm: No, but turn order always goes Left to Right
its_safety_third: oh, I was thinking about the cards in hand
Juliamon: Target the one you want gone first
A_Dub888: I heard if you die in Darkest Dungeon, you die in real life
its_safety_third: i can certainly definitely matter, like with "ignore next instance of damage" effects
e_bloc: stack duration not effect
ghyllnox: @Brozard I guess so, stream looks normal to me
Getter404: Does Stomp ever go to 0 or is it a minimum of 1?

DigitalSeahorse: floofy
Getter404: Hes become Wee!
Dunnston: @TehAmelie Steam has both on sale together I believe for cheaper overall
Days_one: @TehAmelie 5 bucks for the first to make sure you'll like it then you'll know if you want the sequel
tdapenguin: @Dunnston if you're avaialbe for BC morning-to-midday, his twitch handle is sergeyager
DigitalSeahorse: sciantPoggers sciantLick a bug and a fungi?
EnglishGrinn: @TehAmelie - So, I have 475 hours in StS 1 and it's great, and mechanically they are very similar. I have 20 hours in Sts2 and it seems the same, but bigger in every way
forshamesir: @TehAmelie For 5 bucks? StS is absolutely worth it just to make sure you like the way it feels to play, plus it gives you time to let 2 get out of early access
DigitalSeahorse: wixelsAlien wixelsAlien
EnglishGrinn: So, 5 bucks are a "try it out and see if this is for me" thing, sounds good
Laserbeaks_Fury: There are a few enemies that punish you for small decks

ArtDecoSunburn: @SmithKurosaki I imagine that being said by the Earl of Sandwich.

Wikt: @Laserbeaks_Fury i think it's like regent bombardment. it's just 16 damage repeating each turn if you can get it exhausted
e_bloc: firestorm count is
Lysander_salamander: I had heard this had multiplayer
xantos69: Once this comes out of early access... I'm going to lose a cool 2000 hours to it.
Juliamon: Lysander_salamander It does, but Alex has never slayed a spire so he's being taught first
Days_one: the basics are generally sub par
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Or you can also cut starter cards
putz12a: It's also good for getting rid of basic strikes and blocks
forshamesir: @xantos69 Same, once it comes to console
Julian_Rogue: I love the new art direction. so much more stuff
Boopity: @Juliamon I've played this game for a significant amount of hours, and I have also never slayed a spire Kappa

MrGibberish: @farley_f Show me your moves!
KaleidoscopeMind: inventory cap definitely incentivizes using the items
Greyah: That's a thing I like about StS. You can only hold 3 potions anyway, so you might as well use them.
Dunnston: The one relic that gives you a potion every combat is the reason I made myself better at using potions in this game

MacbethSeemsSus: whale friend!
Wikt: lots of cute placeholders
Laserbeaks_Fury: I love Silent
Dunnston: @jacqui_lantern234 I don't think I'm the villain...... :3
Days_one: Beta arts my beloved
jacqui_lantern234: i love the placeholder drawings so much
Laserbeaks_Fury: Shiv gaming
farley_f: it might be a pain for the developer but i would like the ability to change between the placeholder and the actual art
DigitalSeahorse: wixelsCute
jpost042: actual placeholder art
jacqui_lantern234: RIGHT?! the MS Paint art is SO CUTE
TheInnsanity: @farley_f I think they did that in 1
Seth_Erickson: @farley_f they have that in the original game Farley
ACluelessBull: @farley_f iirc that *is* an option in sts1, or was at one point
Greyah: @farley_f That was a thing in StS1 with card art and it's great.
KBKarma: And I'm gonna go a bed. Night!
Nightmanflock: @farley_f there's a chance they do keep it that way in the future, Spire 1 had an option to show beta art later on in full release on a case by case basis
Seth_Erickson: you can change between the card's normal art and it's placeholder art so I imagine it's something they'll implement again
jacqui_lantern234: @KBKarma sleep well, nerd
Sorator13: have a good break!
Juliamon: I do expect it'll be an option since there's precedent
farley_f: coolio thanks gang
e_bloc: swapping blood for sour cream

BITs19_: ah heck, I'm hella late. How much spire has been slain so far?
Sorator13: Alex has finished his first run!
DigitalSeahorse: girldmAdsF ninepoNOU
MacbethSeemsSus: If anyone asks Alex slayed the spire first try.
Days_one: @BITs19_ beat act 1 boss and died to Mr bees
jacqui_lantern234: @MacbethSeemsSus 💯
BITs19_: It sounds like Alex slayed the spire on his first try!
Sorator13: The Spire was defeated during Alex's shift
BITs19_: @Days_one man, I hate nicholas Cage
jacqui_lantern234: @Sorator13 lmao
CastleOtranto: @Sorator13 I get that reference!
Sorator13: :D
RAZRBCK08: Alex did run into the 1 elite that was built specifically to counteract the deck we were building
BITs19_: So this is CTS, who's all playing tonight?
Sorator13: Nelly is teaching Alex
BITs19_: ah, I see I see
MacbethSeemsSus: @BITs19_ Alex is learning SlS2 from Nelly
Sorator13: (James said they probably will do a more for realsies go at the multiplayer next month sometime)
e_bloc: Alex the great and lord Nelso n
jacqui_lantern234: so, question for yall, chat. who here has me beat in hours in this game? im at 35
Sorator13: I have not played 2 yet!
e_bloc: I have low score at 0 but that is gonna change this week almost definitely
Sorator13: I may get into it after work season is over
RAZRBCK08: I love the Regent but he's a weird one to balance your deck with
Sorator13: omg welcome back!
DigitalSeahorse: ninepoGUESS ninepoYARNCHICKEN
jacqui_lantern234: Bames Nond Having a Stronk
Days_one: shes very chatty
MacbethSeemsSus: Dont forget to slay and neuter your spires
tehfewl: poison and stab
Cptasparagus: you have to not speak at all while playing the silent
jacqui_lantern234: SILENT MY BELOVED jotyleHeart
BITs19_: So far my favorite character is Necrobinder
Sorator13: remember, spay or neuter your spire to control the pet population!
Juliamon: Neowwww
DigitalSeahorse: big whale
korvys: Left has a shop to spend the gold on
Days_one: elites am gud
Greyah: You can draw on the map with RMB by the way!
niccus: greed! greed! greed! greed!
xVoxtric: The elites - they must be hunted - to death
Going_Medium: Fluids rotated. I have a 28 oz water bottle at work and I have unintentionally trained myself to pee after I drink 28 oz.
jacqui_lantern234: yeah, right mouse click lets you draw on the map
Days_one: she has 1 more strike and defend too.
korvys: Silent notably doesn't heel after each battle
jacqui_lantern234: helps my ADHD ass remember what the hell im doing
xVoxtric: each character has a different set of starting cards - and a color of cards unto themselves
Getter404: So does Eternal mean you can't trim it at a store?
DigitalSeahorse: girldmDakka looks sticky
e_bloc: happy women's day
e_bloc: silent is canonically female
lamina5432: its a figure it out as you play game
KaleidoscopeMind: learn by trying game
Greyah: A lot of information is just there, because the devs really like information clarity.
BITs19_: Several times I have made a pick in this game, saying to myself "For science!"
Sorator13: One day, I shall run out of science. But not today!
Getter404: Are there any archetypes that are fueled by Curses?
A_Dub888: lrrGREED
DigitalSeahorse: wixelsNerd 4 science
Athelgar: can eternals be trasfigured into a curse without eternal?
Days_one: my favorite way is just drawing way more cards every turn
xVoxtric: @Getter404 in STS 1 there was some cards that cared about drawing non-playable cards
Sorator13: and some relics that cared about curses, specifically
Sorator13: though I'm not sure if I'd call that a true /archetype/
BITs19_: @xVoxtric oh, does Ironclad not have the status deck so far?
kusinohki: @getter404 spire 1 had some relics that gave you strength based on curses and increase max health when getting a curse. don't know about spire 2
MacbethSeemsSus: This stream reminds me; has anyone checked that Serge is eat/drink/sleeping?
KaleidoscopeMind: @Getter404 there was a card in the first game that gave you a passive that hit enemies every time you drew a curse
e_bloc: does your laundry basket have a cloaca?
DigitalSeahorse: it's the drier lint monster
Sorator13: @e_bloc look, I didn't want to ask; it felt impolite
xVoxtric: @BITs19_ idk - I have played ironchad the least so far because I win so easily on him, I've been playing more regent / necrobinder
yukiMakingArt: this game is so good
e_bloc: @Sorator13 very respectful of you
Thefluffiestguineapig: @e_bloc If it does then Ian would be the one to find out
Dunnston: Oh no......!
e_bloc: somewhere, James is laying in a ditch where Nelson left him
mweepigeon: like half my friends list is playing spire right now
SnackPak_: I also tried to sell my solitaire loving mom on StS
gualdhar: I tried to get my mom into Balatro and it didn't take
e_bloc: shiv count
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Have you checked out the demo of Vampire Crawlers?
Greyah: Oh, those cards are very knife.
Dunnston: Nelson, how far into Slay the Spire 1 have you gone?
Getter404: A shiv deck sounds like one hell of a way to avoid the Curse
e_bloc: 1 + 1 + 2 + 1
Days_one: our first transforms
matthaus_c: put this tree on r/quiver
korvys: Nelly - If you mom likes solitaire, and also rogue-likes, she should check out Regency Solitaire
korvys: (more solitaire than rogue-like, notably)
A_Dub888: what's more solitare: this or Balatro?
Greyah: Mirage is really cool. And does nothing.
mweepigeon: has she tried the zachtronics solitaire collection? it has some fantastic solitaire variants, fortune's foundation is incredibly crunchy
Getter404: The Regency devs have a pretty good track record, they also made Shadowhand which has a bit more of a character building angle
xVoxtric: here comes the BRRRROCK
xVoxtric: I hope after image feels as much like meth to you as it does to me
DigitalSeahorse: wixelsDrama
DigitalSeahorse: wixelsICANT
Getter404: (They're also the devs working with the Home Support Hotline folks on FORBIDDEN SOLITAIRE, which looks incredible)
HavenDragon: @Getter404 ooh
Sorator13: the puppets control the AC
MacbethSeemsSus: Mmmm, poison build
Sorator13: they demand attention
Dunnston: Embrace the Shivs
korvys: Shivs do rule, yes
BITs19_: The Silent Shiv deck is my favorite deck in STS generally
Sorator13: Shivs + Afterimage is a nice niche, yeah
xVoxtric: with after image especially, shivs rule
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Sorator13 If this isn't about animals about some kind I don't know what it is.
Sorator13: Taking game actions is fun
e_bloc: shanking is fun
DigitalSeahorse: I'm mostly prepped for the heat this year, cause Toronto is unbearable when it's hot now apparently
xVoxtric: banger choices
BITs19_: Shiv deck + Envenom is INSANE
Getter404: Cut would be nice if you have any sort of energy building
korvys: Discarding is also a possibly deck type for the Silent
DigitalSeahorse: sciantCharge
xVoxtric: @korvys it was in STS1 but I haven't encountered too much support for it yet in 2

Dunnston: @xVoxtric It's the new keyword: Sly
korvys: @xVoxtric I guess it's called "Sly", since that's the keyword that lets you play a card when you discard it?
Seth_Erickson: there was only one enemy, but it did stick around
niccus: it always did, this is the first time an enemy just stacks it
Dunnston: Constrict was for the duration of the fight
lamina5432: no every turn
DigitalSeahorse: girldmSpray1 girldmSpray2 girldmRage
Sorator13: Lasted the whole battle
lamina5432: it was an act 3 enemy
Sorator13: and it was for 10 damage per turn, too
kusinohki: while watching serge play, there were a number of cards that say 'sly' which do stuff when you discard them. I thought they were silent cards. guess we haven't seen any yet
Greyah: The enemy in StS1 can stack it, if the fight goes real long.
Seth_Erickson: it was an elite that put a much bigger constrict this one does a smaller one but can stack it
DigitalSeahorse: this vine character is in Deep Rock Galactic!
Seth_Erickson: oh right it can stack it can't it, it's been awhile huh
Dunnston: @DigitalSeahorse Rock and Stone, Brother!
SmithKurosaki: @kusinohki It is a Silent specific mechanic yes
DigitalSeahorse: Rock and Stone, Brah
xVoxtric: @kusinohki the sly mechanic is really neat that's true - I only encountered it on a few cards though, but there's probably a lot of unlocks I still need
SmithKurosaki: I've seen 3 so far myself
DigitalSeahorse: and bearded sisters
e_bloc: s h i v shivs for kids
xVoxtric: STS2 will never fail to activate the dopamine center for me - just watching shivs + after image is so enticing

HadesLeprechaun: they have also just...continyed to keep adding great free stuff to Deep Rock
AugmentingPath: luck issue. I just start with the cards I want in my hand anyway so I don't need the upgrade
DudelidouX: Afterimage innate is one of the best card for the silend

xVoxtric: @Cptasparagus haha good one
JoannaTastic: unfortunately StS seems like a decidedly kiki deckbuilder game
MacbethSeemsSus: That would imply Beej has a need to hide his comment
putz12a: What, new Beejdrop?
Twilight_Spark: Upgrade your shieves? It's not a story the Jedi would tell
kusinohki: upgraded sleeves. they're bigger to fit more shivs

Getter404: No shivs?
niccus: you'll probably need to read your exact status effect
mweepigeon: the ringing is a debuff on you, rather than being an affliction on a card, so no shivs
its_safety_third: any and all cards, including shivs, are restricted

Sorator13: lrrWOW Neow
Greyah: Hi Neow, bye Neow. See you soon.
DigitalSeahorse: ninepoSTARLIGHT ninepoSTARLIGHT ninepoSTARLIGHT stars!
Days_one: retain time
TheWriterAleph: <3 Neow
forshamesir: The Regent, sponsored by Kaladesh
Gekyouryuu: @forshamesir Avishkar
yukiMakingArt: hardest for me as well, I have a good winrate on everyone else
mweepigeon: yeah I think regent has the least forceable archetypes at low ascension, you need to be balancing his resources really carefully
30teracyte: I'm still trying to get my first win on regent, died with the doorkeeper at 2 hp earlier tonight
TheInnsanity: regent archetypes seem to be stars, big sword, or BIG ENERGY
Days_one: their form really changes how they play
BITs19_: my first win with Regent was yesterday's daily run
TheInnsanity: summon forth rules for sword
Greyah: I love Summon Forth. Get me a big Sovereign Blade any day.
Getter404: Oooh, a payoff that doesn't actually COST stars, sounds good
Dergib: The only tip I have for Regeant is stars is the only good strat. Forge and create are fake.
Days_one: BIG BONK build incoming maybe
yukiMakingArt: @Dergib I disagree, forge works well if you have summon forth to get the sword back
TheInnsanity: forge is good if you get summon
mweepigeon: worth noting radiate does count the 3 stars you get off your relic, but yeah
Seth_Erickson: Forge has worked for me
Days_one: I've seen forge do well
Sorator13: Do your stars carry over from one combat to another?
Joecool190: forge can be very good, but you need to hit a lot of the right cards
JDogg2K4: I've done some silly things with forge.
niccus: the best archetype is mono-big-bang (this is impractical)
Sorator13: Or do you just start with 3 stars at the start of combat (or is that one of the relics I see up there)?
lamina5432: My bet is the EA is to balance these things a little more
forshamesir: @Sorator13 Nope, reset between encounters
laikagoat: everybody kept telling me to force stars, but my eventual win was a dope forge deck
Sorator13: ahh, gotcha
Greyah: In my first Regent run I forged a Sovereign Blade that oneshot the final boss. Good stuff.
laikagoat: haven't touched regent since
mweepigeon: @Dergib don't agree. decks that use forge as their scaling solution *do* need a means of getting sword back (either cosmic indifference or summon forth), and they do need a block solution that often utilizes the 0 mana star cost block cards (particle wall)
Cptasparagus: people told me that pressure points were bait in STS1 but that didnt stop me
Sorator13: @Cptasparagus this (playing what you want regardless of viability) is the way
ACluelessBull: forge reminds me of that "can upgrade any number of times" card ironclad had in 1
TheInnsanity: SWORD
forshamesir: @Cptasparagus It was kind of a meme, but man was it fun when it worked
Wrexadecimal: a KNOIFE
DigitalSeahorse: girldmReading big bangs
mweepigeon: the card creation is a lil sus, but there's a very good payoff card at rare and I think quasar might just be like. a fine card
Dog_of_Myth: Big noife
Wrexadecimal: ha ba ba ba baaaa gah.
BITs19_: didn't know you two were fluent in Simlish!
MacbethSeemsSus: Have you considered a bigger knife?
kusinohki: yeah, don't read the steam forums. all of my favorite cards are called newb traps...
HorusFive: mattlrBonk
Greyah: @Cptasparagus The difference between Pressure Points and Forge is that Forge actually has support.
SnackPak_: blat blat
Marvoleath: !findquote knife
LRRbot: Quote #221: "Usually, in my dreams, the ghosts just give me a knife." —Cameron [2015-04-30]
mweepigeon: the first card with a forge rider is also just good, since "put 2 mana retain deal 13 in your hand" is a strong effect you can just save it
DigitalSeahorse: RPGOops RPGEpicSword
ACluelessBull: *all* of the cards are noob traps
Dustmasc: Does this game have farts in it?
Sorator13: we are all noobs, comrade
Getter404: Counterpoint: I main Kohaku in Arkham because I like to ride the roller coaster
MacbethSeemsSus: The game's been out less than week, and in early access.......
JDogg2K4: The card that fills your hand w/ debris with the card that does damage based on # of cards created was fun.
e_bloc: you know what the most powerful strategy is? piercing my depression
mweepigeon: @JDogg2K4 I got that from neow and it was great until I picked vakuu's earring in act 3 then it ruined my life lol
niccus: it *does* push you against the hand size limit, but it's rare that it matters
Sorator13: science!
LRRbot: If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
Sorator13: The vfx on that sword are very cool
mweepigeon: I loooooove guards
e_bloc: any game with complex enough rules will have ambiguous situations
Dog_of_Myth: Cheese!
Getter404: Gather Light sounds simple & effective
its_safety_third: you can apply -strength in addition to weak
Sorator13: I was thinking, Gather Light seems quite good, as does Solar Strike
emmaInProgress: I really love Cosmic Indifference, lets you put your Blade back on top
Seth_Erickson: forge creates tbf
Days_one: splashing some stars stuff tends to be fine
Tiber727: Reducing strength is great because stacking weak only increases duration. Weak and reduced strength synergize.
forshamesir: Cosmic Indifference letting you put your Blade back on top can be real nice sometimes
SmithKurosaki: I think Alex might really like the next char
ACluelessBull: the next char was my initial favorite at least
SmithKurosaki: Beef sword goooood
Greyah: Biggest I've made the sword was like 255 I think. And it hit the final boss for 4,6k
SmithKurosaki: Beeg*
Sorator13: oooh, snecko enchantment is interesting
BloodnBullets: Its very worth keeping your deck size small this time so you draw your sword more often.
JDogg2K4: would love to somehow get slither on the sword.
Getter404: I brought you blue.
korvys: I had a fun deck with Bludgeon enchanted with Slither
kusinohki: "what if we add more power?" - xkcd
SmithKurosaki: Slither is just snecko. Not a fan
bbblehh: what does slither do?
Sorator13: @bbblehh Enchant a card such that its cost is randomized from 1 to 3 energy each time you draw it
SmithKurosaki: @bbblehh If you've played Sts1, it's the Snecko's ability applied to a hand
mweepigeon: yeah. bulwark, it's incredible
Days_one: there be a block and forge
TheInnsanity: there's the power that makes your sword block
Sorator13: Yes, we saw block + forge earlier
SmithKurosaki: Bulwark
DigitalSeahorse: snek-o
kusinohki: praise snecko?
MacbethSeemsSus: You can't use items before the final boss,. That'd be silly
Sorator13: wait, I'm sorry, I was thinking of block + star, my bad!
SmithKurosaki: Yea my partner found some /jank/ for sword on the weekend
SmithKurosaki: @Sorator13 Bulwark is block + sword :)
kusinohki: "don't over think it....well maybe over think it a little"
korvys: This is a game where you need to consider your sequencing
SmithKurosaki: Yea. I'm really bad at rrflec blocking when I could just simply kill the enemy
SmithKurosaki: Reflex*
Sorator13: omg it is
Sorator13: that's fantastic
SmithKurosaki: For which?
MacbethSeemsSus: *awkwardly scooches chair around*
Juliamon: Why would you want to be efficient? You're playing less game that way.
Days_one: just blocking for 40 a turn tends to get to a boss
SnackPak_: an extra round is just more value
SmithKurosaki: Yea. There's times to not do that and I end up artificially inflating my turn cont by accieent
kusinohki: *cough* defect frost orbs *cough*
e_bloc: love
Athelgar: being offered the 2 class relics im not building, and a lizard tail i cant afford, very rude last shop
Sorator13: I would like the random card effects if they exhausted when played
Sorator13: but adding them to the deck for the rest of combat is... rough
SmithKurosaki: Has Alex found. The infestation cards get?
e_bloc: so you wished for all the chicken parm you could eat

Sorator13: who up forging they blade
lamina5432: need more hogs
SmithKurosaki: @Sorator13 If you get Charge, you can do some SILLY things with a thinned down Sword deck
DigitalSeahorse: a good amount if you wanna get rid of bodies but not great if you are in with the bodies

HadesLeprechaun: those kind of MSPaint drawings ensure you don't end up with temp work in your final product!
korvys: I knew Alex would be into the Necro
neisan2112: Favorite character
e_bloc: I mean it only necro-logical
Dergib: Most of the hand drawings are place holder art like in early sts 1
HadesLeprechaun: and are *supposed* to look to glaring and unfinished, so they are sure to be replaced
HadesLeprechaun: like untextured stuff in game dev defaulting to those bright purple and black checkerboard looks like that for a reason

RealGamerCow: Angry Goth
Getter404: Turtle deck! Turtle deck!
SmithKurosaki: I have somewhat figured out a strat for Necro
Cptasparagus: whta does the rmb drawing look like?
RealGamerCow: I love that they add a marker
mweepigeon: yep you can hold RMB
mweepigeon: and hold MMB to erase
mweepigeon: bottom left also has an 'erase all' button if you want
DigitalSeahorse: cwdevaHEHEHE
Getter404: Didn't immediately go for dickbutt. Such restraint.
farley_f: my favourite strats for Necro is "i'll swallow your soul" followed by "check out by big hand"
Dr_fragenstien: I have messed up runs by forgetting where I was planing to go
lamina5432: no its new
teejayrivers: nope, this is new
SmithKurosaki: @mweepigeon Good to know the mouse buttons. I've been clicking
neisan2112: Middle is eraser
farley_f: No you had to use a mod
noSmokeFire: there were mods to do this in 1
Mai_Andra: Can't Draw Spires Club
mweepigeon: bottom left has instructions
its_safety_third: it was in the tutorial...
farley_f: and it's used for Multi
teejayrivers: The controls are on your shirt I think
e_bloc: multiplayer
lamina5432: also give the artist a pen
Strebenherz: QUALITY
WokenClick: the controls are in the bottom left...
mweepigeon: it was in the trailer
neisan2112: Behind you is the controls
DigitalSeahorse: ninepoFART ninepoZONE
teejayrivers: BIG HAND 👍
RealGamerCow: cool mechanics
Gekyouryuu: it cares about MAX HP for Osty, not current HP amount
30teracyte: plus osty keeps hp between turns, unlike block
neisan2112: Upgraded is Max HP
SmithKurosaki: @Gekyouryuu orly?
farley_f: Souls - the equivalent of treasures in MTG
Getter404: Wawa mentioned, lets go
Voidhawk42: DOOM??
SmithKurosaki: doom's great
Dr_fragenstien: increasing osty’s health also carries between turns
Athelgar: and etherial
farley_f: 0 cost - draw two cards
Sorator13: Alex, I need you to know that I am SO fond of you right now
Athelgar: i have never gotten the etherial build to materialize
Dr_fragenstien: also thank you Alex for doing exactly the same thing I did when I first saw the doom mechanic
Tiber727: By the way, this enemy is the Preserved Insect from 1.
teejayrivers: Left jab left jab left jab
korvys: Oh, Soul is the 3rd one
ACluelessBull: I drafted Soul on my first run and died to the act 3 boss
ACluelessBull: :(
Sorator13: Huh. Quest is new. Neat!
niccus: quests are like curses
yukiMakingArt: souls are very good from my experience
farley_f: i like the "i'll swallow your soul" play - you get a haunt card that does 6 random damage each time you use a soul
ACluelessBull: Yeah, the soul deck seemed *very* good. I had a power that upgraded osty for each soul used and then the souls draw you through to every card you want to play every turn
mweepigeon: yeah a lot of the soul cards are just great smoothing for other archetypes (like many of regent's star cards), plus I think haunt is one of necro's better scaling solutions
mweepigeon: like the block + make a soul card is Just Good
Dr_fragenstien: souls are nice to splash, I haven’t done a full souls deck myself yet
SmithKurosaki: The upgraded relic for Osty starts it at 5, but I've only come across it once
SmithKurosaki: @ACluelessBull Gross <3
teejayrivers: Soul is just Pot of Greed but you can print infinite copies of it
SmithKurosaki: ^^
Athelgar: fruit juice
Getter404: Shhhh, he sleep
SmithKurosaki: Yea Ethereal is good if you only wanna cast it 1-2 times, but if you want it more than once you have to cast it until you dont
Gekyouryuu: I *hate* this guy
farley_f: souls are free clues from MTG - not treasure like i first said
ACluelessBull: oh and the "current HP" on unleash is *definitely* not max HP, I just had him at 6/7 and it was only doing 12
Getter404: BIG HAND

UnknownFriday: You rang?
mweepigeon: counting hard
Metric_Furlong: it's true, it is
DigitalSeahorse: makes sense
Sorator13: I think that math checks out, yeah
roastbeefsandwitch: Dual cast is good against (a) a few weak enemies, or (b) one big boss. It's annoyingly random
DigitalSeahorse: wormy!

DigitalSeahorse: Squid1 digita435Octo cwdevaShook wixelsAlien ssandHAND2
Dr_fragenstien: and thats just early game, when you get more orbs you'll still find it's worth dualcasting for the specific benefits they give you
Dr_fragenstien: hot

DigitalSeahorse: girldmDab girldmBounce
ghyllnox: Catto_blush
farley_f: speaking of hot robots - reminder to read Spaceshipping - Alex's comic - you can read it on Webtoons for free
Tiber727: As we all know, taking the rarest card is always correct.
korvys: The glass thing Blocks
Athelgar: Plasma would be so broken if it was effected by focus lol
Dr_fragenstien: evaluating cards is a skill, I don't generally recommend taking cards that don't do anything until you get support for it
roastbeefsandwitch: Nelson's right, rare cards are shiny, but can be distracting and a trap
Getter404: Lightning Rod sounds fuuuuun
SmithKurosaki: @roastbeefsandwitch ye
Metric_Furlong: 2 is 100% more than 1
Dr_fragenstien: you say that on north100 a lot, 2 is twice as much as 1, and that's important
roastbeefsandwitch: For instance: in the board game, getting the Defect's 5-cost rare attack on the first Nyaa card. Only reduces in cost if you have powers. In that game, we got to the end of act 3 (w/3 players), ended up with the Power deck, didn't take the rare :/
lamina5432: nerfed gremlin nob
SnackPak_: no block, only attack
MacbethSeemsSus: Why block when you can poke?
Julian_Rogue: Not gruul than smash
korvys: I haven't played much of StS2, but in StS, I really liked playing the Defect "All the orb slots" decks
SmithKurosaki: @roastbeefsandwitch How did you like it? Partner picked it up recently
Dr_fragenstien: CLAW. IS. LAW.
roastbeefsandwitch: @SmithKurosaki Amazing coop game. So many cards to sleeve. Sleeves that have a glued-on art, so they tend to peel a lot
SmithKurosaki: @roastbeefsandwitch booo
Tiber727: Happy Flower carries over progress between combats. So you can stall 2 turns to immediately get the energy next combat.
Julian_Rogue: to quote fanboy and chum chum. "ROBOT CLAWS!"
Athelgar: i did a 0 cost Defecct run this morning that went really well
UnknownFriday: @SmithKurosaki If you're a fan of StS1, it's worth dealing with the peely sleeves.
roastbeefsandwitch: Honestly, Defect getting upgraded Strikes isn't bad. They have so few attack cards in the typical deck, so it's a good rate
Julian_Rogue: I havent played STS2 yet but i have fond memories of claw strats on defect
SmithKurosaki: @UnknownFriday Just disappointed that a board game that expensive didn't do good sleeves
CaptainSpam: Give 'im THE CLAW
roastbeefsandwitch: @SmithKurosaki If you're willing to save the peeled sleeves, they work just as well. Minus the game logo on the back
Seth_Erickson: notably with this guy for what it's worth you want to do non attacks first so it takes more damage from the attacks later
Tiber727: @SmithKurosaki A friend got the game. Yeah it's so weird they made decent pieces for everything else and cheaped out on something so important.
SmithKurosaki: Yea, but you'd think they wouldve done it in a way where that wasnt an issue
UnknownFriday: @SmithKurosaki Yeah, I agree. They replaced the first run of them for free if you reached out, which is good. I haven't gotten around to testing those yet though.
korvys: Potion?
SmithKurosaki: @UnknownFriday I wonder if that's still an option. We havent cracked it open yet
Dr_fragenstien: I think you've got it
Getter404: Draw 2?
Dr_fragenstien: temp focus is so good
Getter404: But what does Centennial Puzzle DO?!
Dr_fragenstien: they moved the status deck from Ironclad to Defect

Dr_fragenstien: Echo form is a winner...If you can survive taking an entire turn to play it
UnknownFriday: Defragment used to be a Uncommon in StS1. That should tell you how powerful it is.
SmithKurosaki: Yea I always love upgrades that make cards cheaper (mostly 1 -> 0)\
DigitalSeahorse: sciantFlex
Dr_fragenstien: yeah, the upgrades I usually look for are ones that reduce cost since doing more stuff is strong. Then cards that increase status
DigitalSeahorse: sciantColumbo "one more thing. I hit back!"
DigitalSeahorse: wait it dug a hole?
SmithKurosaki: A note with Echo form and evoking orbs. Once a card is done processing, it'll do the same thing with the next orb for the echo trigger
farley_f: !hole

Dr_fragenstien: dont forget your potion
jubale1: Where’s the Spire?
lamina5432: best creative ai turn is when it makes another creative ai
Laserbeaks_Fury: oh, new orbs?
DigitalSeahorse: @Laserbeaks_Fury ninepoDISCO w ninepoDISCO
Dr_fragenstien: one new orb so far, Glass, does AOE but decreases each time it triggers
Dr_fragenstien: and evokes for double damage
MacbethSeemsSus: 32 on the board
Dr_fragenstien: dualcast on frost orb is good if you need 10 block, but only in that situation (or if you're doing some big brain orb juggling)
mweepigeon: knockoff versions yeah
Getter404: Mmmmm, waffles
SmithKurosaki: its the counterfeit shop
Bionull: They're cheap
Seth_Erickson: they're an imposter merchant
mweepigeon: you can have both at the same time! orichalcum + orichalcum??? is kinda hot
Getter404: It's Minions next then fire
OldUncleDan: So the Glass Orb is there to encourage cycling orbs? Is the Dark Orb still around?
Bionull: That eye is gonna kill you
Dr_fragenstien: sneko on a claw build is a decision
lamina5432: scam shop snek eye seems bad
mweepigeon: @OldUncleDan it is yeah. in general, defect's card pool wants you to actually end the game instead of stalling forever
Bionull: It doesn't draw extra cards
Dr_fragenstien: it doesn't draw you additional cards
Sorator13: @Dr_fragenstien we're here for a fun time, not for an optimal time
mweepigeon: knockoff snecko doesnt give draw
SmithKurosaki: @OldUncleDan Yup. Managed to Dualcast one for 100 dmg total on Sunday
Sorator13: The main difference is that it doesn't let you draw, yeah
Laserbeaks_Fury: But, it can give you 0 cost on cool cards
DigitalSeahorse: girldmPanicF
mweepigeon: @mweepigeon defrag being a rare and most accessible focus being temporary is another indication of this
MacbethSeemsSus: Oh no, it's got a little guy
Dr_fragenstien: skill potion?
SmithKurosaki: This is why I dislike Snecko
MacbethSeemsSus: o7
lamina5432: its good in certain decks
SnackPak_: classic snecko
DigitalSeahorse: sciantBrows sciantBrows
Sorator13: also I think OG snecko can randomize to 0, can't it?
iarethel0ser: Snecko kills you, but it's sometimes funny while it does.
SmithKurosaki: @mweepigeon Yea Hotfix is good. I miss the Heal 7/10 at end of combat card from 1 tho
mweepigeon: actual snecko is fantastic since it gives you the +2 draw to smooth bad rolls
Dr_fragenstien: the thing is that it randomizes costs between 0 1nd 3, so if you fill your deck with 2+ cost cards you'll be saving energy on average
DigitalSeahorse: wixelsPounce wixelsPounce two snek
PaperDoopliss: Minion dies here right?
SmithKurosaki: For the turn
Sorator13: Oh, this snecko can also randomize to 0 too, neat
