Aiming for synergies can be a trap, though. Sometimes the correct pick is a bad card that has anti-synergy with your current deck, because it solves an immediate problem. For example, at the start of a run you generally should pick any attack better than a strike (almost all of them) even over super powerful late-game scaling cards and try to kill the Elites to get relics and build power.
After the first few runs through the Spire, you'll generally know what you will be facing, and what you need to do is pick cards that cover your bases against those potential upcoming fights.
- moomin 6y agoIndeed, best advice I can give for people having trouble is: do anything you need to do to survive Act 1 and kill 2-3 elites. After that you've got a lot more flexibility.
- speedmagnet 6y agoGood analysis. You're right. I'm no expert at the game, but killing elites is a great tip and not obvious to a new player. All of my most successful winning decks have been built off of synergies though.
- TheOperator 6y agoThis depends on what you mean by success. If your aim is to end up steamrolling hard enemies with a broken deck and getting a large high score than synergies are worth going for. If your goal is to eek by with a win as often as possible there is too much variance in betting the farm on being offered certain cards in the future.
