    Today I learned The Virus does more damage based on how much health you have. I have over 10,000 hours in Isaac and I never knew that.

    Unofficial TBOI Trinket guide. No. 006
    Broken Magnet
    "It kinda works!"
    Effect: Pulls all coins in the room towards the player. While being pulled, the coins lose all collision, meaning they can pass though anything to reach the player.
    Can occasionally give you some free coins that were behind some rocks. More coins are nice, who doesn’t like more coins? But, I don’t believe that this trinket isn't as that helpfu as it sounds. Firstly, a getting a couple more coins normally doesn't win a run by itself, it's just a nice thing to have.
    Secondly, flight makes this trinket redundant.
    Thirdly , coins normally aren’t helpful in the late game.
    It’s a not a terrible trinket, but the second anything better comes along, replace it.

      *"Decap Attack"*
      It's an active from the treasure room pool. with a 4 second recharge.
      When used, it disconnects Isaac (Or whoever you are)'s head, and throws it at an enemy, akin to how T. Forgotten can chuck their pile of bones at people. This head will continue to fire tears, and, just like T. Forgotten's pile, this head is invincible.
      When it hits an enemy, it does moderate damage, and it can be picked up again, just like T. Forgotten's pile.

      Spun transformation progress, + there are many enemies that don't deal contact damage, + you can quickly slam into enemies _after_ you've already taken damage so you can poison them. Useful when backed into a corner by a group of enemies.

    B tier item, useful but not that much.

    Poison touch is only useful with some rare combos so I don't count it .

      @@LmaoMamel Probably has to do also with the release of the Rep+ DLC - and the massive influx of players that came with it. It's hard to deny that multiplayer didn't bring a lot of new faces to the game - both just because it got a sudden spike of attention - and also because of people now having even more a reason to encourage their friends to get into the game.
