Slay the Spire II arrives soon!

I keep dying on the Act 3 boss with the Silent. But I’m getting that far pretty consistently, so that’s something, I guess.

My game did easily sync now that I have Internet again, so no progress lost.

We played another Sealed Deck game, and it was my first time playing as the Silent.

I inadvertently created an actual infinite loop (despite the patch) that resulted in unlimited actions and cards every turn, killing the final boss in a single turn. It’s way easier to start the engine with that character, using discard skills combined with the Tactician sly card that grants more action points. A bit too easy, in fact… totally broke the game, as @DigitalC warned. Sealed Deck makes the game far too easy, especially on some characters.

Still dying as the Silent. I’m having fun though. I’ve tried a bunch of different things for the hell of it.

Pay gold for energy? Great until you run out.

I’ve learned to accept no gift that involves adding a strike and defend to my deck (I guess unless I’m doing a strike deck.)

Transform all strikes and defends… Well, I had middling results and no block. YMMV.

Anyone ever try cooking at rest sites?

It’s a very useful way to trim your deck without spending a ton of money and hitting a bunch of shops. It does take a relic though, and you use up your chance to heal or upgrade.
