The author is one of the best Slay the Spire players in the world. Here's an example of a fun run at ascension 20: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rgu-lMQnA74 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rgu-lMQnA74 He isn't the most talkative player. Other interesting people to look up are https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEvDtGBqQFk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEvDtGBqQFk . Another good one is lifecoach1984 on twitch.

jorbs is great. His low-key sarcastic style hits just right. Don't miss Searing Blow +16. Surely his most celebrated and infamous run. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JY4fe-jQEyA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JY4fe-jQEyA

I'm guessing you didn't read the whole article before dropping a link to lifecoach without annotation...

  Lifecoach is an odd one, he's a fantastic deeply analytical player who just doesn't seem to understand why anyone would play a game in any other way, and as the article points out is just rude about people who don't conform to his ideas about the "right" way to enjoy things.

  you're right, I missed that. I had hoped for more details on game design/tournament structure so skimmed the second half. But I thought possibly still worthwhile to share links to actually see people in the community.

Jorbs in TFA comes across has having a really fragile ego. If he’s so interested in competitive STS, why is he willfully ignoring lifecoachs results who are unmatched?

  Yes, it is interesting how sensitive many of the elite players are. not just this one - many elite players in public are dismissive of each other's skills. Doesn't seem objectively rational.

    If you dont track win rate how can you be elite? I would say jorbs is just a good for-fun player. its much harder to dismiss someone when results are there
