In fairness? I think we could ALL see how much Tom was, weirdly, missing crits more than he should have. And the alternative to the Muscircle relics were... Oh. Oh it's MUCH WORSE than just taking two muscircle relics in a row!! He coulda had the one that gives Expoitaball (via the Stacked Orbacus) and the other one??? Super Boots could have kept him from taking fire damage, altogether, while also allowing him to heal between fights (a little). Yeah... terrible TERRIBLE TomPlays~! Wouldn't have it any other way!
The Squirrel, Multi-Multiball, and Poker Chip have a potential for some crazy damage amplification, but it is sad that the Squirrel was changed and almost always vanishes before hitting the endgame.
@@splinte111 Yeah, I really wish they'd taken a different approach to balancing it, so that it was a persistent effect like every other relic in the game.
@@PierceArner something like not making it proc from multi ball and itself maybe. Or maybe double or triple the pegs needed to proc the next one every time.
@@PierceArner I think if they had it where whenever you hit a refresh or even every 2 refreshes it adds one more to the squirrel. That way its typically something that is more useful when you get it, but for most builds it will still run out near the end game without being a totally dead item. And for refresh multiball builds it would probably be like its old op version, but you'd have to spec into that build for it instead of it being OP every time.
The "damage resistances become weaknesses" axe was designed to make shields easier, but it absolutely breaks the minesweeper bomb boss who is now suddenly super weak to and filling the board with bombs
@@Dr.Death8520 aside from the ones already mentioned, im pretty sure the mirrors, the shield knight guy (and the weather vanes but not really an enemy) would have "resistance" to targeted attacks. I cant think of any others off the top of my head
He passed up two echorbs, which would have probably been amazing. On those shots where he deals 6+digit damage to one enemy, he could have made the next shot deal that damage to all enemies.
Daily reminder that Tom is an amazing person and to thank him for all he has done/will do - Day 1692 "Custom Class" OOOO so very cool indeed :D Also, XD, I knew exactly where that was going ha ha 17:08 as foretold in the ancient script 2.1K, nah, we have 73 damage in these parts. But god, the 491K and 1.2M, jesus XD Well damn, not only do you kill Gay Slime, but now you rob him of all his gold too Thinking of a name for this Custom Class, best I can think of is Pegtosis (Peglin and Mitosis)
I still don´t understand why they made the squirrel limited. 100 Triggers, depending on build and maps can be like 4 shots. And then its a useless relic. Which, for a boss relic, is unacceptable. I get that it was insanely strong beforehand, but just needing more hits to trigger or something would´ve been a much better nerf to it.
Try a Refresh Upgrade build. Using the Spinventor. Swoltorb, the goggles relic, and Upgrade Sectorb as part of the Assemball. Maybe just do a Custom Assemball build.
I would love to see Tom try a custom run with the "better" multiball relic, only to realise he soft-locked himself with the -2/-2 effect and has to restart with a different build 😅
man their needs to an option for the final boss to have way more hp. So many builds never get to reach their full potential because utility balls just kill them outright
The nerf for the squirrel should have been that squirrel balls don't count towards the counter. That way only you don't run out of them, and they don't apply as much. That said, I'd have just left the normal squirrel in. It was fun! I wish game devs would stop removing all the fun things from their games.
If you clear all the bombs on the board where you choose a path after a battle, you get an artifact. ('bombs activate nearby pins' relic is nice for this)
"Oh, we could have done that multi-ball shot way better".... fires into the exact same shot. Never change Tom, we love you!
And then says it again!
The one time Tom does over 1m damage per hit is the one time he doesn't look at total damage dealt stat after the run.
more balls is more good, that's what grandmama used to say.
A true woman of culture
my grandma used to say "Peg them early to find the good ones"
If you consider the first 5 turns as a countdown, the build works like a nuclear bomb.
Tom: - multiball crit build
Also Tom: - picks 2 muscircle relics in a row
... never change Tom

@@weebjeez The Yogscast Guarantee!
16:45
Oh Tom, that wasn't 88k damage. That was 898k damage

agreed, but the pre-nerfed version was so op that you had to take it everytime.
@@splinte111 Yeah, I really wish they'd taken a different approach to balancing it, so that it was a persistent effect like every other relic in the game.

@@PierceArner I'd prefer if it had a cap on how many times it could activate per shot or per encounter personally

How many enemies actually have "resistances"? It's not been obvious from watching alone.

7:30 seeing Minotaur get cheesed that way was beautiful...
Poker chip + multiball is so strong. Its probably the highest scaling build if done right. The orb that summons copies of other orbs helps a ton.
The leaf would have been so good. Also the boot makes you immune to the fire from the poker chip
He passed up two echorbs, which would have probably been amazing. On those shots where he deals 6+digit damage to one enemy, he could have made the next shot deal that damage to all enemies.
Oh, Multiball. So round. So decadent. What EVER shall we do with all these BAAAaaawls!? Love it, now I know what I'm doing later. Mega Multi Ball run!
Holy cow I've never seen multiball and the chip!
The Squirrel should have a limited number of uses per battle, not per run. That’d make it a lot more useful.
Man I hate that ghost so much... If I make it to the mines and die, it is almost certainly the ghost's fault.
One day Tom will be able to resist the siren call of The Multiball, but today... today is not that day.
Poker chip plus echo is the most damage ive ever done in peglin. Started listing numbers in scientific notation lol...
Daily reminder that Tom is an amazing person and to thank him for all he has done/will do - Day 1692
"Custom Class" OOOO so very cool indeed :D Also, XD, I knew exactly where that was going ha ha

that looked very satisfying to play. more balls good

The boot at about 21:00 would have stopped the fire DMG from the chip.
No it wouldn't. The chip isn't misnavigation
@@mikef5951 I'm pretty sure it still stops the fire damage
@@Brychan1102 you are right, it does stop the damage.
"Was the 1800 or 18000?" Says Tom after doing 181,000 damage
so glad Tom grabbed the refreshorb!
"is this guy going to kill me?" hits for over one million damage
This run but with summoning circles would be amazing
Always love a good peglining from Tom!
The tomnisiah has the multi balls from the start?? The prophecy? The power that none should have...
I spent two months in the wilderness without internet connection. All I could think about was, "What is Tom doing with his balls?"
Editor not showing his final scoreboard where it said how much damage he did is criminal
I just ended a run by dealing a bit under 3 million damage to one of those square bosses thanks to a summoning circle and multiballs.
Try a Refresh Upgrade build. Using the Spinventor. Swoltorb, the goggles relic, and Upgrade Sectorb as part of the Assemball. Maybe just do a Custom Assemball build.
Ah cool, I did a custom build just this morning with the reorbaniser + bosses only! Multi ball is also a fun one
I would love to see Tom try a custom run with the "better" multiball relic, only to realise he soft-locked himself with the -2/-2 effect and has to restart with a different build 😅
I can’t believe the squirrel lasted as long as it did!
Starting with a rare ball and a rare relic is obviously gonna be stronger than any of the starter decks. But still a fun run.
Ah, the good ol "angorb class"
BAM!!!
"88 thousand damage" Tom, that was 880 thousand. On an enemy with 600 health.
New build idea for a custom: Three mirrorbs, one summoning circle, Refresher Course is your one relic
Balls=good and more=better, what means more balls=greatness
Custom run with bouldorb!
man their needs to an option for the final boss to have way more hp. So many builds never get to reach their full potential because utility balls just kill them outright
So how chaotic would be max matryoshka with 3 maxed summoning circles before it?
Would love to see a vid focusing on new stuff, like you have to take every(within reason mid/late game ofc) new thing and try to make it work
I would love to see the lasorb achieve its full potential, if it has one
New custom character idea: Droundid (druid) - Star with 3x stones, 1x Bramball and the Squirrel relic
consider the following
you have the refresh orb only so no damage BUT your relic is bomb refresh
extra hard mode, you can ONLY kill things with bombs
A Stepbrothers reference? In the year of The Emperor 2024?
It's not about the build but the goofs we made along the way.
How about stone build? The relics that add damage to the stone and an orbalisk?
enjoyed this
15:24 305,152 damage
Yeah. Tom would do this.
Bam
The nerf for the squirrel should have been that squirrel balls don't count towards the counter. That way only you don't run out of them, and they don't apply as much.

Remember when bouldorb was the favorite?
19:32 181888 damage
Coulda had cheese shield free win 😢
“I don’t know what that was, 18 hundred or 18 thousand”
How about 181888…?
Tom do one but give yourself overwhammer from the start
Peglin love
Mandatory Algorithmic Comment Because We Love Tom
If you clear all the bombs on the board where you choose a path after a battle, you get an artifact. ('bombs activate nearby pins' relic is nice for this)
Make a boulder build next and name the character orbgre (ogre)
F it we ball
PEGLIN
So is this grandmama’s build, then?
do a bomb buld aggen
Second?
