This will stop the rare games where you get unlucky starts from ending runs, at least. As long as you're reasonably efficient at building resources (fast or combo-ey) and don't lose to a horrible early draw, it'll be almost impossible to die.ģd) Celestial Hourglasses - If you spend gold intelligently and can pick up runs, you should be able to comfortably afford one by boss 9-12. Combine those with a spell and items that gain hearts or boost heart gains, plus a decent defense spell (the Trampoline one is a favorite of mine).

Being able to spend two defense for four armor makes it almost impossible to die.ģc) Hearts - Use items that give you extra starting hearts. Usually you want the cheap armor spells with items that boost armor gains. Going fast is normally the best bet, especially since it means you're going to make tons of gold from long chains.ģb) Armor - The expensive, efficient armor spells can be okay on their own if you're decently fast or can gain hearts occasionally. Even just a decently fast setup with extra starting resources, spells that boost resources, and spells that create chains can be enough, though. Typically you don't have speed that crazy. Always have spells that can let you get back in the game if you get a little unlucky.ģa) Speed - I've killed Stuck on my first turn a few times. Try to make sure you're playing spells and items that have good synergy. Some range from horrible to insane depending on what other spells and items you have. Top decking a card adjacent to any of four different cards on the board is much easier than top decking a card adjacent to a single card on the board.Ģ) Have a plan.

Try to avoid this situation.ĭon't cast Arcane Missiles just because you can if it leaves you with one card on the board.

This means you have to draw something to win before the enemy draws something to beat you.

One of the easiest ways to lose is to spend all your resources and knock the board down to one or two cards while you're on empty. This means don't blow your dex spells just to take 4 cards, don't heal if you aren't in danger of dying or having your willpower burned in case you need to use Arcane Missiles instead, and don't use attack spells to blow up cards just because you can. In addition to making you a ton of gold, it also gives you extra information to work with. Often the best option is to save up resources for a few turns until you can set up a big run. Here are some basic strategies that should help:ġ) Be patient.
