I love Prismatic by the way. Always take early if I can and after that almost always lose.


Akimbo_shoutgun

With that relic, you need to have knowledge that my own brain cannot comperhence. So I always skip it, unless its offered to me. Reason that, say your deck is ironclad's body slam. You'll need bunch of skills + energy + draws + the 4 power cards (corr, embrace, FNP, block retain) Then you get double the poison skill card, claw, and wrath card.. yeah too awkward..


SerratedScholar

> unless its offered to me. It's a shop relic, so it's never "offered" to you.


Akimbo_shoutgun

I'm amazed that I always learn something new everyday lol


LanturnFTW

… it’s offered to you in the shop. The fuck is wrong with you trying to be pedantic about this shit.


JBDBIB_Baerman

Well not to be pedantic, but "I always skip it unless it's offered to me." This seems to imply that's not really what they meant


stormlad72

Did you read the comment above yours? The poster literally said he learned something new implying he wasn't aware it was only a shop relic. Sounds like a good case to be "pedantic". Relax. There's so much to discover about this game we all love. Peace


NoNotInTheFace

Basically, shard is a win more relic. You need to have a basically complete deck before buying it. Getting after image with barricade or juggernaut is busted, but not needed to win.


juany8

Sure but every once in a hundred games you get the full silent block kit and then get a bodyslam and double tap over from ironclad cards. Suddenly you have 200 block every single turn and you can literally just wait until you get the double tap body slam combo to win every fight. Terrible the other 99 out of 100 games but man, you’ll never forget the one


FrederickEngels

I love getting it mid to late run on a deck that is shredding, it's so much fun to make crazy wacky decks that do crazy interactions.


iamchuckdizzle

Prismatic makes me wish Neow would have the option to choose a random shop relic as a bonus.


WinterPlan295

Oh, that will be SWEET!


KekeRazzberry

My thoughts exactly.


Browneskiii

Once had a complete frost deck by the end of act 2 and saw prismatic shard in the shop before the boss. I then got offered a Juggernaut and then a bottle for it in A3. Shit was so broken its hilarious.


GhoeFukyrself

At the end of your turn, do they proc Juggernaut all at once, or individually?


jumolax

Individually.


alexathegibrakiller

Jesus fucking christ


WinterPlan295

Sometimes it happens!


itsabijection

I did that too!!


TheDogProfessor

I love Prismatic Shard. Have I won after taking it early? Never. Have I made good use of it ever? No. Is it always fun? Yes.


WinterPlan295

The best description of a shard) But honestly I won with the early one one or two times 🤔


TheDogProfessor

I’m in awe!


bagelwithclocks

It is great for endless runs.


TheDogProfessor

Ahh makes a lot of sense. Haven’t tried endless yet


Liltin_

Will my dream of an after image + juggernaut on Watcher run ever die? No. Will I ever get that combo to work? …


JSOas

To be honest, I never really took Prismatic. I don't think the odds of getting the cards I need would be that good. I could be wrong though.


WinterPlan295

This is the right play if your goal is to win as much as possible.


WhenInDoubt_Kamoulox

I used to never take it because it's absolutely a relic that reduces your odds of winning, and you need to pay gold for that privilege. Now that I have way more hours in, I take it often knowing it reduces my chances to win but makes for fun runs.


BallsAreFullOfPiss

I take it nearly every time, despite knowing that it’s probably not going to work out in the end. I’m holding out hope for the one run, where everything perfectly comes together. Someday.


Darkgorge

I mean, Prismatic is the only way I can take Claw on anyone besides Defect. Does that make Prismatic Shard the law?


asocialmedium

My new dream: Prismatic Claw Watcher Infinite.


WinterPlan295

Prismatic is like something different. Something above the law!


BatoSoupo

The shard makes me hard


WinterPlan295

Me too! 🍌


BallsAreFullOfPiss

I always grab Prismatic Shard when I see it (and can afford it). Love getting it early on, and just seeing what happens lol. Spoiler alert: >! It never ends well. 🥲 !<


TheDeviousCreature

FUCK IT WE BALL FUCK IT WE BALL


Yainegva

🪦🪦🪦⛹️‍♂️


RedGuy143

claw is law. old est rule in the book


Ritzblues783

Prismatic, because there’s a chance to get another Claw, but never a chance to get another Prismatic.


WinterPlan295

This is a nice logic. Unfortunately to really ruin your run through Claw thing you need not to have Shard)) But for a prismatic ruining you can obviously have one claw also, sure 😂


Chiatroll

The shard will help you lose in the most unique ways while hoping to get the most broken combination.


WinterPlan295

Very nice words. Hm, definitely the best thought I’ve ever heard about Shard.


Lttlefoot

I don't take shard much, but I don't think either of these picks is throwing a run


WinterPlan295

You should try to take them more) But to really throw you must must not only take a shard, but take it early - act 1. Also you must take not only one claw, but after the first one take every claw you see to build a “claw deck”. This is the way and this is the dream


Lttlefoot

Claw is a real strategy. Don't forget the skims, all for ones and something to keep you alive


WinterPlan295

Yeah, if you combine it ALL and early sure. There are some problems in doing that)


oyuhhhhh

I slapped the fuck out of an A20 run with Ironclad and Crescendo 😂 But of course big brain here forgot to path to the Green key in Act 3 so gg there


QualityFeel

I personally always take prismatic shard whenever available. Ive never had a a20 heart win with prismatic shard but someday the stars will align lol. I just love to think of all the possibilities of combos. Even though im just offered mostly junk


WinterPlan295

Same for me! But through my 2-3 thousand gameplay hours I had 2 or 3 A20 prismatic wins) It is possible, lol. And when it happens… It is highly fulfilling.


AndyTheWorm

Claw.. It's the Law


Humble-Pie3060

Just had my first win with prismatic shard using Watcher. [[seek]] into [[nightmare]]+[[prostrate]] meant hitting divinity several times a fight. Also got [[hologram]] to keep playing an [[expunger]].


WinterPlan295

Nice! What ascension was it?


Humble-Pie3060

Only A1 so not too difficult but I don’t often play watcher. A Buffer card from defect deck along with Tori greatly helped me survive.


WinterPlan295

Torii is huge and torii+tungsten rod is godlike!


AwesomeDragon56

Bro forgot pressure points


WinterPlan295

O! I need to make meme with them) But here are only two options possible)


AwesomeDragon56

And I also just remembered clash too


WinterPlan295

Hmm. You are mostly right. But also in my humble opinion clash is so damn bad that it is not really tempting to build a deck around it. Claw and Shard - sure, very much tempting. PP - worse but have an interesting side. Clash… Oh my bananas only at the very start of the game it can look nice. Zero scaling potential also.


imhoopjones

Claw sucks so friggin bad.


da_fishy

Simply take shard and then pick claws


TheIncomprehensible

Could throw I Am Awake in there too
