Does that mean that two Crooked Penny plays on boss rush could potentially be good? Assuming that the first roll, which is a gamble, pays out with pedestals that don't vanish once one of the original items is taken?
NL, the room @3:17 Just push a bomb in the center and when it explodes walk out the door. Changing rooms stops the coins momentum and you can pick up all 4.
I guess the best use for Crooked Penny is used just use it after you pick up a passive item. If goes ok, you copy the pedestal and, therefore, an extra item. If not, you get a penny.
As weird as it sounds, wouldn't the right play to be to try to go to hush? He can double the item rooms potentially, it might have been the only hail mary he could have thrown to have a chance by that point
I just looked i t up, they have been able to die since afterbirth apparently. The item is so bad that i have never ever noticed lol. They respawn after a while though. Also according to the wiki they die instantly to enemy brimstones so that's what happened here. So weird that they would nerf an already bad item.
Hey NL, here's a cool lesson on how to use/abuse Crooked Penny. Look at your Necropolis XL Shop at 19:54 Use Crooked Penny, you have a 50/50 chance of each event happening... If it works -> Grab a free bomb, spirit heart, key, card, and Pay to Play. Grab the battery to recharge your Crooked Coin. Now use a bomb to reshuffle and restock the shop. Repeat as necessary. If it doesn't work -> Room is empty, but reshuffle is still there. Come back 4 rooms later with a fully charged Crooked Penny, use a bomb to restock the room, try again.
To those who are curious, Bloody Lust doesn't stack If you get hit you get a .5 damage bonus (after you got hit 3 times it changes into a 1/3 damage bonus)
I was confused so I looked it up in wiki. Here- DLC: The Punching Bag will die instantly by enemies' Brimstone or by Uriel's and Gabriel's beam. Also: Punching Bag will die after taking too much damage and then respawn after a long period of time. Exiting and continuing the run will cause it to reappear right away.
Punching bag is actually really bad. It only lasts for a while before getting killed and the effect while alive can be harmful when fighting enemies that jump.
Does NL know that you can see if you have less then 1 full heart on curse of the unknown by looking at the heart on the top left. If it is red, you have less or equal to one full heart.
Yo thanks Nl for consistent gameplay and videos you are a great youtuber. please dont take more dumb damage than you should and keep doing what you are doing because its great 👌
NL, you can go hard on the Crooked Penny plays on shops with reroll machines. If you turn everything into a penny, you can just bomb the reroll machine to get all the items back.
3:15 that's not how you do it, you line it up, kick it in there, walk outside of the room, when all the coins are out of there, come back in the room, pick up all of those coins. You're welcome.
Does it really bother anyone when nl is missing one heart and then don't pick one up, it's like he goes AROUND it to specifically NOT pick it up! Love the vid
Crooked Penny plays might be the only NL esc gambling that I like. I hate the dice rooms, D100 and Missingno but goddamn crooked penny is funny as hell
How in God's name does NL not know after 4 bajillion Isaac hours that all you have to do to prevent number firing again is just never let go of shoot. So in the small rooms just keep shooting all you'll only get 1 bomb, unless you drop the bomb before walking into the room
you should take the pause space bar item there ryan, cuz u have so much orbital, so you can pause and then use your orbital to deal damage and then shoot to unpause.
Mom's Razor is kinda bad. The bleed effect does 10% of the enemy's hp as damage once every 5 seconds. What makes it worse is that it doesn't actually cause bleed on Bosses. On top of that it's an orbital that doesn't actually block enemy shots. The one upside is that the contact damage scales as 0.2x your damage stat, which can be good if you're already doing well but makes it still pretty awful if you're not already strong.
So Dad's Lost Coin aka omega penny aka crooked penny should definitely be used in devil deals, shops, and black markets, especially if you can't afford anything from them. You can only gain, not lose.
Ryan as much as I agree with some small balance changes , I think Edmond and Tyrone took the consideration to make maybe 1 bad item for every 2 good items , the game is already pretty internally balanced as is, you can get OP runs and actual 7stages of Hell bad runs. its a coin flip most runs

The fucking egg deleted all the items of course.
He forgot Diplopia on an empty pedestal gives you a free item.
yeah..fucking idiot, ffs
Yo, once in a lifetime he actually did the right thing. Doubling the boss rush is what I'd expect him to do.
Does that mean that two Crooked Penny plays on boss rush could potentially be good? Assuming that the first roll, which is a gamble, pays out with pedestals that don't vanish once one of the original items is taken?

Picks up a Penny
Calls it the Omega Penny
Omega Penny: All the stages of gambling addiction in 33 minuites.
"I'm not going to take this pill; could potentially kill us"
*immediately takes the damn pill
he's loosing his mind
He meant he wasn't going to take it in the curse room because then if it was bad trip leaving would kill him
truuuu... didn't check, stupid haha
i thought of this too haha, totally forgot that it makes you take a full heart of damage and that's what he meant
I appreciate NL using the active omega penny.
I really like it, and him gambling away with it is the most enjoyable choice.
Crooked penny would be so awesome if it could double enemies in a room or have them turned into a single penny
NL, the room @3:17 Just push a bomb in the center and when it explodes walk out the door. Changing rooms stops the coins momentum and you can pick up all 4.
when he doesnt recognize upside down omega coin
HE GOT RIGHTSIDE UP OMEGA PENNY TOO
I can't believe he gave up Pause Button when he had 3 amazing orbitals to fuck up Hush with
There is now an item he calls omega coin and an item he calls omega penny, that seems like a smart naming convention.
Karlo Schallibaum kinda like black bean and butter bean
I guess the best use for Crooked Penny is used just use it after you pick up a passive item. If goes ok, you copy the pedestal and, therefore, an extra item. If not, you get a penny.
I didn't know that. I guess Crooked Penny is way better than I thought.
I would guess it would be useful for devil deals. Can't afford them? TRY YOUR LUCK!
Yes, that would do too, even if you are going for an Angel Run (I mean, Key pieces...)
I thought it would be ok to double it with the D6, but then I was like "but what if I lose the D6?"
It's not worth it.
As weird as it sounds, wouldn't the right play to be to try to go to hush?
He can double the item rooms potentially, it might have been the only hail mary he could have thrown to have a chance by that point
Lance Elliott he could also die and fail to double the items sir furfag
Do people really still use the term furfag or are you just using it ironically? I believe the presently accepted nomenclature is "fuzzycig".
Cole McEgg but he had no chance in the cathedral so that's still better
-Has 3 Orbitals
-Finds Pausebutton
-Picks up piercing shots
THE RAAAAGEEEEE!
Someone should really tell him that using crooked penny after you pick an item up has a chance to spawn a new different item.
This has been patched by now, for future reference
Crooked penny increased my enjoyment of this episode, I hope you continue being reckless with this item in the future, NL.
I've never laughed as hard as when egglord basically double diplopias a shop and then POOF! all gone
Every time Egg leaves a floor with no pennies, an unchecked shop and charged omega penny a penny gets crooked...
How come no one talks about how the Krampus laser removed both punching bags? 12:29
I want a sound mod of Northernlion saying "Bad damage" every time you take damage
Oh wait.
Skyrim_The_Boss that's a mod
12:32 two punching bags just vanish for no reason
Hooloovoo i thought i was the only one who noticed. i thought the fallen killed them with the cross laser but since when can that happen?
I just looked i t up, they have been able to die since afterbirth apparently. The item is so bad that i have never ever noticed lol. They respawn after a while though. Also according to the wiki they die instantly to enemy brimstones so that's what happened here. So weird that they would nerf an already bad item.
Yamigem thanks for the explanation. whats the point of taking them anymore lol
Watching NL pass up pause with 3 damaging orbitals hurt me
This was the funniest video he's ever done. And I sort of mean that in a mean way.
"This isn't the first sign of a brain injur-Y OH MY GOD, THE ROOM IS TOO TINY DUDE. "

Hey NL, here's a cool lesson on how to use/abuse Crooked Penny. Look at your Necropolis XL Shop at 19:54
Use Crooked Penny, you have a 50/50 chance of each event happening...
If it works -> Grab a free bomb, spirit heart, key, card, and Pay to Play. Grab the battery to recharge your Crooked Coin. Now use a bomb to reshuffle and restock the shop. Repeat as necessary.
If it doesn't work -> Room is empty, but reshuffle is still there. Come back 4 rooms later with a fully charged Crooked Penny, use a bomb to restock the room, try again.
To those who are curious, Bloody Lust doesn't stack
If you get hit you get a .5 damage bonus (after you got hit 3 times it changes into a 1/3 damage bonus)
8:50 your wale made me spit out my coffee, what a pinnacle moment of learning what crooked penny does, I had the same reaction hahaha
Everyone- "Don't run into enemies with orbitals"
NL- "Whoops, I'm fuckin doin it"
Should do a run with crooked penny where he decides whether to use it based on a coin flip
eden is cool but mixing it up is cool too
"Career suicide"
Kyle Is Daddy
solid meme
anyone else notice the fallen make the dummies disappear?
That move at 2:27 made me wish you lost the entire run tbh.
I hope we see more crooked penny runs
Woo! Episode 69+1 let's go!
Its a.. Eden.. on.. the.. RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN!
Love Eggdaddys death screams! Sounds like he climaxes everytime lol.
*has 100% deal w/ the devil chance*
NL: I don't expect our deal w/ the devil chance to be really good.
Anyone notice that the two punching bags actually disappeared?
Yeah,it seems that they were actually killed by the Fallen with a Brimstone shot...even though they shouldn't have, probably a bug!!
Why did punching bag disappear?
I was wondering that too! It was like the boss killed them or something :'(
I was confused so I looked it up in wiki. Here- DLC: The Punching Bag will die instantly by enemies' Brimstone or by Uriel's and Gabriel's beam. Also: Punching Bag will die after taking too much damage and then respawn after a long period of time. Exiting and continuing the run will cause it to reappear right away.
they can die
Ohhh, thank you.
Punching bag is actually really bad. It only lasts for a while before getting killed and the effect while alive can be harmful when fighting enemies that jump.
"Only double things that are bad but can benefit by doubling"
*Uses it on Cube of Meat and his only spirit heart*
Using Crooked Penny in a shop with items you can't afford is good because you don't lose out on anything.
Does NL know that you can see if you have less then 1 full heart on curse of the unknown by looking at the heart on the top left. If it is red, you have less or equal to one full heart.
Yo thanks Nl for consistent gameplay and videos you are a great youtuber. please dont take more dumb damage than you should and keep doing what you are doing because its great 👌
SInai Romero great youtuber: YES!
Tell him to not take dumb damage: Impossible
NL, you can go hard on the Crooked Penny plays on shops with reroll machines. If you turn everything into a penny, you can just bomb the reroll machine to get all the items back.
Damn Ryan has changed since the Ultra Hard challenge. I can hear the combined voices of all his ancestors in unison when he speaks.
Voltaire if you're watching NL and his misplays everyday like me it's probably already too late
You don't choose the Omega Penny life, the Omega Penny life chooses you.

THE 1/4 CHANCE CROOKED PENNY SHOP PLAY AND HE GOES QUADRUPLE OR NOTHING, THE ABSOLUTE MADMAN!
Wait... Why did the punching bags disappear when they got hit by the Fallens brimstone
crooked penny plus car battery is the best play
Dad's lost coin increases the chance for more lucky pennies to drop. It's crazy good.
thank you for making 10 vids a day really helps
3:15 that's not how you do it, you line it up, kick it in there, walk outside of the room, when all the coins are out of there, come back in the room, pick up all of those coins.
You're welcome.
He tried to learn. He tried so hard. But he was misinformed. Bless your heart eggDad.
I want a t-shirt of "Live by the omega penny, die by the omega penny."
double the pedestals you softboiled egg
Hey i just wanna say I love you NL, despite the criticisms sometimes 😊
Oh yeah, I criticize NL a lot, but it's cuz I love him. 😊
Every time he sings, I push the L key on my keyboard to skip forwards 10 seconds.
The crooked penny seems good specifically on shops. Getting items free vs. spending nothing, getting nothing except 1 cent
also devil rooms
Does it really bother anyone when nl is missing one heart and then don't pick one up, it's like he goes AROUND it to specifically NOT pick it up!
Love the vid
8:06 I've waited for him to make this joke for so long...
Crooked Penny plays might be the only NL esc gambling that I like. I hate the dice rooms, D100 and Missingno but goddamn crooked penny is funny as hell
Found my new life motto. Live by the omega penny,die by the omega penny.
nl is relatable tbh
where did his punching bags go? did i miss something or is it bugged if you get two?
How in God's name does NL not know after 4 bajillion Isaac hours that all you have to do to prevent number firing again is just never let go of shoot. So in the small rooms just keep shooting all you'll only get 1 bomb, unless you drop the bomb before walking into the room
number 2 that is
Crooked penny: the payout that never payed.
The omega penny giveth and the omega penny taketh
- the zany eggGAMBLER
When I looked it up it said that dad's lost coin also increases the chance of finding lucky pennies.
Dat penny is the best item for NL because he is such a gambler ^_^
Dad's crooked coin seems like Nl's zany wet dream
You don't have to worry starting an Eden run with a single heart, the minimum you can start with is two spirit hearts
you should take the pause space bar item there ryan, cuz u have so much orbital, so you can pause and then use your orbital to deal damage and then shoot to unpause.
DARNIT I really wanted that Boss Rush + Crooked Penny play to work out
he had several powerful orbitals and didn't take pause button. dammit egg
As soon as Egg says he's gonna try to double all the shit in boss rush I can just feel all the items vanish......
All items and consumables are now called Omega Penny. It's happening.
8:40 killed a little piece of me
There should be an item that has a 50/50 chance to double the enemies in a room and a 50/50 chance to destroy all enemies in the room
Fuckin lold when the crooked penny items disappeared
death by widow that is an all time low I love it
Newend03 that is actually upside down man
+meme queen that is actually downside up Dude
Use Crooked Penny on empty item pedestals. Free new items.
I'm at the first floor,right before the boss.and right now I'm thinking the "unknown " effects are more tinted rocks
Void+placebo+crooked penny+ 48 hour energy. 😀😀
Suck up crooked penny and placebo with void and hold 48 hour energy. 😀
Does NL even read the comments? I've never seen him reply, pin or like a comment before.
Arizoko Just got a nostalgia boner
If you really want him to read something, yell at him on Twitter or send it in one of those messages on twitch that you have to pay for.
Kevin Zhang He DOES pin a comment sometimes. On Twitch he does reply, and all of the above
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE PUNCHING BAGS???? They just seized to exist after the Fallen fight.
Damn, also egg's luck is way over 9000 with the omega coin plays
I like Omega penny better. The Alpha and the Omega; It both creates and destroys, it is both the beginning and the end.
Mom's Razor is kinda bad. The bleed effect does 10% of the enemy's hp as damage once every 5 seconds. What makes it worse is that it doesn't actually cause bleed on Bosses. On top of that it's an orbital that doesn't actually block enemy shots.
The one upside is that the contact damage scales as 0.2x your damage stat, which can be good if you're already doing well but makes it still pretty awful if you're not already strong.
So Dad's Lost Coin aka omega penny aka crooked penny should definitely be used in devil deals, shops, and black markets, especially if you can't afford anything from them. You can only gain, not lose.
Caves 1
Knows what crooked penny does
Has extra keys but not much money
Doesn't go to the shop to try and double everything for free
Ryan as much as I agree with some small balance changes , I think Edmond and Tyrone took the consideration to make maybe 1 bad item for every 2 good items , the game is already pretty internally balanced as is, you can get OP runs and actual 7stages of Hell bad runs. its a coin flip most runs
I'm way too excited I pre-ordered my copy of Afterbirth+ for the Switch!
The very first pill he took gave him double the typical tears upgrade from a pill. Is the hidden effect of Dad's Lucky Coin?
well I actually enjoy gambling strats. You go egg.
16:58 - ... and the lower cased J's! (Wayne's World II)
NL's crippling gambling addiction was revealed in this episode.
If only he'd read the note on the Crooked Penny wiki entry that says it can be used on empty item pedestals, to create new items...
30:57;
DON'T LOSE YOUR WAY!
That was an Austin "Nooo"
I would've laughed so hard if by picking up the penny in boss rush, it triggered the waves to start spawning. hahahahaa
Getting closer to that 100th episode.
Holy crap! TWO wiki lookups in one run!? What did you do with Egg!?
