It’s so crazy to think how long NL has been making content. I found NL when rebirth dropped back in 2014. I binged the pub g vids back in middle school when I got mono and was off school until I recovered. I would come home from school and immediately watch the latest NLSS vod. I’m 23 now and I don’t have as much time to watch videos, but I still catch what I can. Thank you for being such an integral part of my childhood and making wonderful content!
30:26 Somebody gotta tell NL that cards that say "Fatal" don't proc on minions but not me I'm trying not to be type A 53:47 I get what he meant but it's funny that blasphemy was in his hand when he said it
Boy howdy, this is a classic example of a backseater - wrong and weirdly arrogant about being wrong. Sacrificial Dagger / Feed / etc definitely do proc on minions.

LOL the relatable vibes in this video are off the charts! 😄 It’s like playing Slay the Spire while living life, you know? Makes me wanna strategize my way through everything, even choosing what to eat! 🍕✨
I’m sure people already mention this but the common cards are so good on the watcher and strikes and defends are so bad that I find it is usually a bad idea to take the option of a curse for a rare card
My advice - Cut through fate is almost always a good pickup. There aren't many decks you wouldn't want one in it's like a better pommel strike. Also I don't know if you saw it but rushdown is potentially the best Watcher card. It's what allows you to go pseudo or actually infinite.

the ink bottle draw floor 3 to save the run made the script writing too obvious
Hearing NL say "stancedancing" feels exactly the same as hearing movie characters saying "Quantum Mechanics". I will not elaborate.
Is this sword or shield oath
