Hello, I am in love with the game BUT I am kind of harstuck on A9 so I thought why not ask for some advise :) So here is the rundown of how I got here and I guess I'll try to describe what I am doing and where I am failing :)

So I made it to A4/5 on intuition alone (I havr like 200hrs in STS1) and then I got the advice to take more fights and less questionmarks and that kind of catapulted me to where I am now. I try to take 1-3 questionmarks per act and get a good mix of elite and Campfires in, totally dependong on what needa more. Around one shop per act dependeand on the path, usually late. Generally going into a run I'll try to grab the first actuall good damage card and then a good block card and see if I can build a synergy from there.

Now starting A9 I mostly get killed im the first 5 hallway fighta and I have no clue why. :/ Does anyone see a glaring problem with my gameplan so far? Am I maybe misjudging the power of somr cards amd thus taking the wrong cards?

And advice welcome thanks for taking the time!

Thank you so so kuch for this detailed explanation <3 For clarification I am struggling with STS2 and never git that deep into ascensions in the first part ^^

To your quastion what I am dying to: Idk, a mixtute but most of the time I feel like I can't consistently block enough, or kill fast enough so that enemies ramp up too fast. Although in my last couple of runs this has been getting a bit better ^^

Reading your explanation I think the thing that did call me out the most was the paragraph on the turn to turn decisions. I tend to fall into a rush quiet quiet easy, so checking my deck more and playing carda slower is probably whats can hrlp the best. On fights I feel like there is a 50/50 chance I notice a missplay right after I played my cards om how I could have saved hp or kissed lethal or sometjing like that. Like I only recently started to use potions becausr I always played so fast amd forgot about them ^^

Also thanks on thr deck size mention, I still had the number from STS1 in my head so I sometimes held myself back with picking up new cards because of decksize ^^
