Had envenom as first card, takes tactician (which was essentially a curse initially) instead of Bane that works with poison + he wanted a multi-hit attack anyways 😭
It truly makes my day when NL farts out a whole hand then proceeds to describe his deck as elegant. I don't even like slay the spire but the egg always entertains
"I'm not going to remove the curse so I can keep the Du-Vu Doll strength" Every single fight afterwards: "Man I need to get rid of this Pain. Wish I had an opportunity to do that."
In later ascensions please do not discard the voids, it's the same as discarding a daze except when or if it comes back it'll take an energy from you. (He'll never read this comment.) but maybe this tip will help someone else.
Agreed. No hate for vod videos, I get they're high value because it's content for both sites at once, but it's not content for me. It's been a famine for us since Isaac ended.
Since it lets you pass cards between colors, they didn't want people abusing it to be the highest ascension level they are on. U have to have beat that level with that character before, and won't show up after A15
tbh the shiv buffs kinda invalidated the entire existence of bane, with envenom it performs better on TE and heart discounting ninja relics, but for the entire rest of the game shivs just give you so much more synergy and power, even on applying envenom
@@MehYam2112 It wasn't the Shuriken deck, it was the first run which died in act 1. And I probably would have taken the Bane, he took too many cards that needed discard in order to work without having any of those discard cards in the deck.
That second floor turned me Type A. Skips upgrading all Defends and Strikes. Skips Apparitions. Skips the book. Deliberately walks into a shop with 0 gold.
@@LMPL1993he was using skewer a lot and it works really well on skewer. He had du vu doll so the necronomicurse wouldn’t have been all bad. The other potential books have no downside to them and are generally really good.
I like necro on silent, outside of Skewer it also turns Sneaky Strike into solid energy generation and damage bundled in one, and it can make Choke your damage solution for the entire run including Time Eater if you have decent discard or shiv synergies in play. Even if the only targets you have are something like Predator or Dash it provides really nice frontload to deal with a lot of A2 and give you time to search for better necro targets. Of course if the deck is lacking for 2 cost attacks I usually pass the entire event, but it can pop off well otherwise.
"Buddy, I think we can make Malaise work." NL, you don't have to make Malaise work, it's one of the best cards the Silent has access to. It makes itself work.
25:05 is the akebeko in the room with us?

His mind just couldnt fathom that attack doing 22 damage without it
Can't believe all these misplays, this WILL NOT work in A20...
haven't watched the video yet btw
Based
had us in the first half
I see no lies
Hahaha
least obsessed NL enjoyer
20:24 When the cheese filled crust is super filling and you gotta recognize your limits
4:42 i think not taking bane or poison cloud was the reason for defeat maybe. Tactation was a really bad choice at that momment

@@roostangararthe rare golden +2 response
Never seen more instant regret than keeping a pain in a shiv build to get 1 more strength from doovoo doll even though you have a shuriken lol
Any loremasters able to confirm why he doesn't lean out of frame to take a drink anymore?
He has a La Croix sponsorship now.
9:02 Me as a cowboy attempting to train a wild horse on the track but the timing isn’t quit there yet.
Not as bad as other comments suggest... Skipping the book on full health is unjustifiable though.
Glad to have some good banter as always.
dealer (egg)finally hit me with the good stuff (slay the spire videos for youtube) BLESS 🙏🙏🙏
THEY CALL HER THE SILENT BUT SHE'S ANYTHIG BUT
25:05
But you don't have that relic...
Exactly, and it would hit much better if he had it.

It's my turn!
Ahem: 27 minutes? Must be a speedrun.
Finally youre playing as The Silent! My fave character/deck in this game.
21:55 me on our first date after hitting you with velociraptor facts for 3 hours
"I'm not going to remove the curse so I can keep the Du-Vu Doll strength"
Every single fight afterwards:
"Man I need to get rid of this Pain. Wish I had an opportunity to do that."
Half hour left of work, half hour Pog injection. He's done it again
Egg I love the slay the spire the pog levels are off the gourd

i went all the way through silent a20 thinking envenom applied the poison when YOU got hit with unblocked damage...
Bro..
Bruh
Envenom when enpoison walks in
Another glorious non-Vod! Not having to listen to him yell at chat is truly a gift.

Yes hate for vod videos
him playing a new character with new cards means new card names to make stupid joke comments out of… im thinking we’re back
3 minutes in already passin in wraith form.
He just loves pissing us off
Not picking Accuracy and then 30 seconds later "lets make a shiv build". That's the sort of gameplay im here for.
bro passed up on necronomicon skewer i can't
NL you made a radiohead reference and I told all my friends. My worlds collided
we’re slay the spire guys of course we watch the new run on our lunch break
the strat is to listen to NL while studying physics >>>
He's the Larry David of slay the spire
that was so cool what the hell
shuriken on silent is stronger than any boss relic
12:18 me when I’m Finnish
3:57 missed lethal with envenom but also who cares
The quitler!
3:07 wtf is this event ? I have beaten A20 with every character and I've NEVER seen this
Doesn't appear at high ascensions
Just the coolest event in the entire game
Since it lets you pass cards between colors, they didn't want people abusing it to be the highest ascension level they are on. U have to have beat that level with that character before, and won't show up after A15
Huh. 42 seconds.

Skipping bane with envenom q.q
tbf even with Envenom, Bane is still a pretty mediocre card (unless it's + already)
tbh the shiv buffs kinda invalidated the entire existence of bane, with envenom it performs better on TE and heart discounting ninja relics, but for the entire rest of the game shivs just give you so much more synergy and power, even on applying envenom
@@Soren59 no, its very good
It would have worked, but I would have also skipped it. A 3 energy shuriken deck feels righter when you’re not spending on attacks.
@@MehYam2112 It wasn't the Shuriken deck, it was the first run which died in act 1. And I probably would have taken the Bane, he took too many cards that needed discard in order to work without having any of those discard cards in the deck.
Watching this while playing rogue book, just a couple of guys who are mid at roguelike deck builders 💅
why did he take damage when he had 2 blocks in hand and 2 energy?
Pawns in DDDA be like:
BONUS: 17:37 Me when I my friend asks me how much pizza I want, but I'm not hungry
type A pawns watching NL: even in numbers, a weakling is a weakling still
Woah can this video slow down a bit, I’m trying to watch a Northernlion video
23:30 *her
That second floor turned me Type A.
Skips upgrading all Defends and Strikes. Skips Apparitions. Skips the book. Deliberately walks into a shop with 0 gold.
'Admittedly Akabeko could hit harder'
-Man without Akabeko
Skipping book is arguably fine. Necronomicon isn't amazing on Silent I think.

Becoming a type A chatter when it's only ascension 3. Chill, it's inconsequential

cmon bro you do envenom buildup a catalyst is free
Why no hearts run once in a while, mmm?
10:20 Skipping a floor 18 Deflect+ with 3 energy is definitely a choice
didn't even take the establishment smh
fuck you're right! shivs are created in combat Ö
Establishment+well laid plans is goated
Feed me daddy! More slay the spire videos!
"Buddy, I think we can make Malaise work." NL, you don't have to make Malaise work, it's one of the best cards the Silent has access to. It makes itself work.
I really don't like playing the silent so I'm not surprised when low ascension aren't just steamrolled
Who’s gonna tell him that Skewer is ass
heads up 99% of the time apparition on silent is a free win
"If your deck is good enough, you dont need infinite blades"
17:09 Immediately has 2 turns where infinite blades would have came in handy lol
NL's unpopular opinion: A Thousand Cuts is bad
In what world does this man live? It's possibly the most agreed on worse rare card
