Maybe an idea would be to add a little love to the Champ's relic taking a page from the Automaton, ie, "Start each fight in a random stance, your first finisher played each combat costs no energy." Not sure if that's too strong, perhaps alternatively, "Start each fight in a random stance, your first finisher played each combat does not exit your stance." But I would certainly keep that relic and I would also take finishers more often. If we're just spitballing ideas, I would definitely stop rerolling the champ if it weren't random stance, but then cards like upgraded Defensive and Berserker Style become significantly less attractive. While I've done like all there is to do in the base game, I'm certainly nowhere near even approaching mastery of the mod, so although I could offer suggestions, at the end of the day, what the hell do I know? That's why I made the thread, just to see if others, hopefully with even more experience than I have, feel similarly. Honestly, I don't even feel that comfortable offering advice yet. It's so good that I think it deserves to be in the actual base game.Įdit: To include where I'm at and what I'm basing my opinions on, I've completed everything with all characters in the base game and am currently at Ascension 7 9 with all characters in Downfall.Īwesome job, I'm so thoroughly impressed by the mod!
Seven new well-fleshed out characters all with their own unique strengths and weaknesses with entirely new systems, cards, art, events, bosses, unlocks, etc. I've got hundreds of hours in the base game but hadn't played it in some time feeling like other than an occasional daily challenge to help pass the time there wasn't much left for me in the game, but discovering Downfall has completely breathed new life into the game for me.
SLAY THE SPIRE CHARACTERS MODS
So yeah, Downfall players, what are your thoughts? For those of you who have never messed with mods in Slay the Spire, I highly, highly recommend Downfall. Snecko is definitely my least favorite Downfall character though, so it's possible I'm underestimating the power of identifying unknown cards.
I'm not big on unknown card strategies, much preferring just drawing as many cards as possible and spam muddling to do ridiculous things. I always roll this, but I imagine with more experience it's worth considering a keep. Gremlins - I actually was surprised by this, but I actually prefer rolling this relic, though admittedly that may be because of me not finding strategies that can compete with "just use fat gremlin." I view the forced swap as a disadvantage more than anything as it makes deck building much more difficult than just focusing on making 1 gremlin a god. Early game it helps you kill things a turn+ earlier than you'd otherwise be able to and late game it lets you dump 2+ card cost encodes into a 0-cost function. I always roll this.Īutomaton - The only other Downfall starting relic I always keep. It's basically close to "5 plated that doesn't go down when taking damage." One of the few Downfall starter relics that I think is always better on average than a random boss relic.Ĭhamp - Maybe people are using builds that love to swap around, but my Champ strategy seems to always be to get some innate ability to start in berserker, gain strength/vigor and use Fan of Knives. Hexaghost - I actually always keep Spirit Brand. Sure, there's bracing, but that still doesn't offset the chance to have more energy. Staying in defensive mode one extra turn is great, but again avoiding taking the damage required to get you into defensive mode in the first place by having an extra energy per turn seems the better play. Guardian - This relic isn't impactful enough imo. I always roll it, though I can see the upsides in a goop/tackle deck. Slime Boss - Starting relic is decent early, offering a potential 8 healing per combat, but I've always viewed both the base game and Downfall as a race to snowball so that I'm not taking damage in normal fights.
