I'm just pissed cuz I had my a10 unlock for IC in the bag and failed on act 3 boss.

So I was at the merchant before the boss to grab a dropkick. Had to get orerry to get it and cuz of orrery being fucking dumb and taking you out of the merchant I had 400 gold left when I accidentally proceeded out of the merchant. Poor design and me being rushed fucked me there.

Then the big skullhead with a green robe who gets intangibles was next. He was annoying but whatever. Got through him with minimal damage. Upgrade a card. Then I get to the boss, awakened one.

I save scummed damn near 20 times and nothing I did different helped and I was dead on the 3rd turn.

Feels really shitty to have put hours into a run just to get fucked on the finish line.

But it feels like a trend in this game for me. I have hundreds of runs but only about 20 wins. And I swear almost all of them washed due to poor card draw order. I'd have a banger deck and then none of my set up will come up and I'll sit there for 3 turns not scaling damage or blocking and eat shit.

Which is why I try to run small decks. Just 99.99% of the time I end up with frankendeck cuz the cards to run a small deck don't show up till act 3.

Are there just more negative encounters than helpful ones or is the rng balanced to favor scenarios that disadvantage the player?

But thats enough ranting after a very frustrating loss. Not gonna post pics cuz i dont even wanna think about that shit now lol back to the grind.
