For a long time I found myself taking cards sound great but are very situational, then regretting it afterwards on floors where they are effectively a useless draw.Welcome to /r/Northernlion! If you are new to this sub, please follow these rules before posting: Lastly, avoid making decks too big most of the time, and don't be afraid to skip any card that isn't going to fit nicely, even if it seems like a good pick on its own.

Likewise, you may take something you think is good only to realize it isn't, learning these by trial and error over time really helps.Īlso, if you're stuck on a hard choice on whether to take a card or not, look up discussion threads from here on them most often there are people who break down the advantages and disadvantages to a particular card (or relic) in very insightful ways. Trying different cards/strategies you aren't used to can help a bit, there have been countless times where I take something on a whim that I think might help my current deck a little, only to realize it has a great synergy with something else that I never anticipated. Play and watch the game more, don't be afraid to ask questions if you don't understand anything, and you will decent at the game. Other than that, it's rough to say anything general as the game is very complex, and even after 1000 hours you might still learn a thing or two about an obscure interaction between some cards / relics. For example, at the beginning of Act 1, you don't have any damage card to kill Elites, so you try to pick good attack cards to deal damage. Learn to understand what is the thing your deck need at the moment. I will not go into the detail about which card to pick, because Spire is a complex game and the answer will always be "it depends". Deck building and card selection are the fundamental thing in the game, and while relics help you get stronger, you win with a good deck. To fight the Elites, you have to prepare for the fights, some cards are better to deal with the Elites than the other, but some are good in the direction that you are trying to go into. Elites are the best way to get stronger as they provide a random relic, which immediately make you stronger, and a better chance of getting a rare card, which give your deck a direction. In case you don't want to / don't have the time to do so, the fundamental of the game is you trying to get stronger each floor. The best way to learn the game is to watch more experienced players play and listen to their thought process. Please hide all spoilers by wrapping the text like >!this!<.
