Slay the Spire is one of those games where the more I play it, the worse I do. I did better at this game when I didn’t know what I was doing then I do now after hundreds of hours in the game.

Me with Hades.
The best run that I went the farthest on was like, my 3rd one? The RNG wss just right and I was effectively immortal as long as I kept dashing and attacking. Died to like the 4th or 5th boss in a single hit. Can’t out heal that! 😫
I have never made it beyond the second boss since.
Keep at it, the mirror unlocks really help (plus you just get better at dodging etc)
I had a hard time with it too. God Mode made it much better for me, don’t be afraid to use it if needed!
I’m not as down on it as I am with Returnal. I actually want to know wtf is going on in that one and the story is entirely RNG too lol
If you play on PC, use mods. Trust me… just use the damn mods. Life’s too short to be banging your head against the wall over and over again.
Returnal can be fun, worth playing, and has a great story to piece together. But it has some of the most git-gud toxic bullshit design choices I’ve ever seen from developers. Find a level of mod usage that gives you enough difficulty that you’re comfortable with.
Also, as an FPS player, I do not understand how anybody could play this game on controller. I ditched that shit about 30 minutes into it and immediately raised my skill level threefold with the mouse.
The accessibility options and the game’s natural autoaim mechanics basically give you aimbots by turning up all the assistance options as well as making the crosshair as large as possible.
Source: I have it on PS5. 😭
I struggled for a while but eventually I unlocked all the mirror stuff and got it dialed in so I could get specific duos to become godly OP every run I did. It took a lot of memorization of what boons were needed to get those duos, and when to reroll though!
I did a similar early run. Everything clicked and then took me FOREVER to get past the 2nd one again.
