Game Designers: You Don’t Understand Charity

  Su Chu clicked to open the card library, and among the remaining few cards, there was no perfect strike at all.

  Su Chu suddenly remembered.

  After he played [Sword Hilt Strike+] in the first round, the activation of the effect made him draw two more cards!

   At that time, the second Perfect Strike card was taken, but it was put into the discard pile because the round ended!

   "Oops!" Su Chu cursed secretly.

   Such a situation has not happened before, but when facing elite monsters and mobs, Su Chu didn't pay too much attention to such accidents.

   In the worst case, wait for one more round before killing. Anyway, the card library is shuffled very quickly.

   It's just that now after taking a boss's explosive skill, every round of Su Chu's is very precious.

  Under such a loophole, Su Chu's situation suddenly became bad.

  In this round, only relying on non-core hit cards, Su Chu only dealt 23 points of damage.

  The gap is very obvious.

  Su Chu didn't give up, and continued to plan carefully, spending it with the boss.

Mutual exchange.

  Finally...the round is drawing to a close.

  Su Chu silently looked at the boss in front of him, remaining HP: 12.

  Any second round will kill you instantly.

  It's just...Su Chu looked at his soldier again, the remaining blood volume: 6.

  The next round does not belong to Su Chu.

   "It's a fall short." Luo Lei smiled wryly at the side.

   It turns out that any boss in Slay the Spire is not to be underestimated.

  Just a little mistake put Su Chu in a near-death situation.

   "Relax Su Chu." Luo Lei patted Su Chu on the shoulder and comforted him, "It's just a game, there will be another time."

   "If I draw that perfect strike in the second round, then this battle will be my victory." Suddenly, Su Chu said.

   Luo Lei was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled wryly, "Yes, yes, if that's the case, then you can indeed crush the victory."

   "But we are unlucky, don't worry about it, just give it another go."

  Luo Lei felt a burst of regret when he thought of this.

   Give it another shot, and the same card draw and relic choices will no longer be possible.

  This is probably the charm of the meat pigeon card.

  Whether you can get to the end or not, the content of this game is unique.

   "I'm not entangled." At this moment, Su Chu raised his head and looked at Luo Lei with extremely bright eyes.

   "I'm just telling the winning formula!"

   "You..." Luo Lei hesitated, only to see Su Chu abruptly quit the battle interface and returned to the main menu of the game.

   "I forgot to introduce you, a major gameplay feature of Slaying the Spire." Su Chu shook his finger and suddenly smiled.

  “save and load…”

   "You mean?" Luo Lei was a student majoring in game design anyway, so he got what Su Chu meant very keenly.

   "That's right, one of the characteristics of Slaying the Spire is that their save points are all before the battle begins." Su Chu moved the mouse to the button to continue the game.

  The screen is stuck in the loading interface.

   "So, we may not be able to back up while climbing the tower, but we still have the chance to... trial and error."

  The familiar interface unfolded in Luo Lei's astonished eyes.

   "I call this the SL style of play." In Su Chu's leisurely tone, he suddenly re-entered the scene of fighting the boss.

  The number of rounds at this time is zero.

  Battle, reopen!

   "Good guy! This design is wonderful!" Luo Lei patted the table, his eyes shining.

   The sequence of each battle deck in Slaying the Spire is actually determined. Players need to make the most effective combination in order to play the most perfect combo.

  How does the player know how to maximize the output before the entire battle is fought?

  The existence of this SL mechanism makes all this possible and more reasonable.

   Through step-by-step calculations, completely killing the enemy is the core of the card game.

   "Come on, I won't let Yun Qilai make trouble this time." Facing the boss, Su Chu resolutely launched another attack.

   This time, he used a combination of [Perfect Strike+] and [Strike].

   This way, the Hilt Strike won't take away the second Perfect Strike on the first turn.

  The output space left for him will be completely made up.

  Finally, the dead soul of Liuhuo finally fell in front of Su Chu.

   And his warrior still has a full 12 points of blood.

   "This is the optimal solution." Looking at the settlement interface, Su Chu showed a relieved smile.

   "Good job." Luo Lei also praised.

  Although Su Chu relied on the sl mechanism to beat the boss, the current result is also inseparable from Su Chu's carefully constructed deck in the early stage.

   "Look at the spoils." Luo Lei suggested.

  As the loot of the first floor boss, it is naturally much richer than the elite monsters.

   Just the relic, there are three options to choose from.

   And the card is also a choice of three, but all three will be gold cards!

   "Let me see." Su Chu looked while thinking.

   This round of boss battles also highlighted another shortcoming of his deck, that is, the lack of explosive means.

   When encountering monsters that need to be quickly killed by focusing fire, the current deck alone is not enough.

   "A warrior's 3-point energy limit is flawed." Su Chu sighed.

  Otherwise, he would be able to play the burst damage combination of [Shash] + [Perfect Strike +].

   But this requires 4 mana, which is almost impossible to achieve.

  First strike hard and then strike perfectly, not to mention whether the order of formation matches or not, the required rounds have also doubled, and the upper limit of operation is too low.

   "What are you muttering about? Choose the relic quickly." Luo Lei urged.

  Su Chu withdrew his mind and looked at the relic option.

  [Dark Blood], effect: replace "Burning Blood", at the end of the battle, restore 12 points of life.

  [Rune Pyramid], effect: You will no longer automatically discard all cards in your hand at the end of the round.

  [Empty Bird Cage], effect: When picked up, choose to remove 2 cards in the deck.

   The first relic is obviously a fighter's exclusive strengthening relic, and the recovery of 12 points per round is very powerful.

  The second relic can facilitate the collocation of the card group, and the previous operation of losing core cards will not appear again.

  The third one is the ordinary card deletion effect. For matching the deck to form Su Chu, the benefits are actually not big.

  Su Chu thought about it, and chose the blood of darkness as the relic.

  He has bottled flames, so he doesn't have that high demand for deck matching.

   "The relics can't make up for the shortcomings." Su Chu sighed, and moved his eyes to the selection of the three gold cards.

   Suddenly, Su Chu's eyes froze.

  A card that only cost 1 cost attracted his attention.

  【Double Hair (Gold)】, 1 fee skill card.

  Effect: The next attack card you play will be played twice in this round!

  …
