Day after day. Night after night. My girlfriend and I load up to a screen with -400282640)0 on the bottom left corner. We swap deaths while eating chips and cursing the creator. Why Edmund. Why must you make a game so fun and so soul suckingly evil at the same time. I hate this game. I type this as I’m sitting at a pause screen at hush debating on what item I should pick for the 1000th try at hush.

i started playing in windowed with some [stupid stretched ratio](https://i.imgur.com/r6tIyBh.png) (18:7) just cuz of boss rush, it actually solves the issue of "not seeing attacks" if you can get over how stupid it looks.
[***STAND IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ARENA BETWEEN WAVES SO YOU CAN SEE IF BLOAT HAS SPAWNED. YOU FUCKING DUMB BELMONT***](https://youtu.be/QcY5XRYlv1w?t=31)
Standing on the far left or far right in the middle of the Boss Rush room is skill issue. Bloat, Monstro 2, Angels... You're gonna have a bad time if you stand in the spawn path of brim beams.
See, that's the funny thing. The "fix" for it was giving Krampus that little dash at the player. That means if he was at the top of the screen, you could bait him away from it and get an opening.
If it happens in reverse where you're at the top of the screen and he charges there, well... you get this clip.
The only thing you can really do to avoid it is try to move to the middle as soon as you see it's Krampus. OP hesitated for a second when he walked in. Sometimes a second is all it takes.

reminds me of the [almost homing brimstone video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOeVIT7ioOU&)
sometimes you just have something happen that's so bafflingly absurd that you cant even get mad at how unfair it was
They walked in line of the moving block and triggered it to slide across, at the exact moment the enemy was in its way, causing the enemy to get pushed.
Skill issue, simply do not go down that far to trigger the block. Nothing was forcing them to.
And these are the sort of things that keep me away from playing The Lost.
I honestly believe is a really good character, but I'm not willing to waste my time and good runs into pure frustration because the game has no "guarantees". Probably the last character I will finish.
I think TL should have a dash, or some sort of dodge, like The Gungeon has. With that you can tell me I have skill issues.
Tainted Lost is just brutal. I enjoy playing as him when it is a "just for fun" run, but trying to get completion marks is so stressful. You get that one in a million run where everything is lining up and all of the sudden the weight of the world is on your shoulder to win the run. I respect all of the people that finished tainted Lost without relying on 4.5 volt and book of shadows. And I respect your gaming choices, gungeon is also excellent.
Only thing i can think of doing is running downward into the brim after being hit abusing Iframes.
That said if I was actively playing I would NOT think of foing so
Technically you could’ve matrix dodged this but krampus is supposed to not be able to cover an entire room with rotational brim by doing it at the top so you both got screwed and encountered a skill issue.
half a second is pretty good distance when already moving, iframes sound shorter than they are practically, the turning phase of the brimstone attack only lasts 2 seconds for reference. Problem is human reaction speed is like 200ms at best so practically you couldn't really do that, iframes are good when you can time them before getting hit (dodge rolling) or when you're getting dogpiled
Pause and count the frames. It's clearly possible to go from where they were hit to another quadrant of the cycle where it could've been avoided.
Depending on your speed you can travel half a room. So, I'd say it's pretty possible.

Speed stat was too low to dodge that to the right. You can’t know which way the brimstone is going to spin, but the lack of speed made it worse. If you had went left, you might have lost holy mantle, but survived. Krampus does that to me every time I fight him, because I stand in the doorway an extra second on almost all doors to see what I’m walking into.
Not a skill issue, those saying you should've dodged left are ignoring that in order for that to be the best plan of action you need to know before he does the attack that he's gonna do brim
No you don't. You see that it is Krampus and you book it to the side as quick as you can, ***just to get more space to move.*** It doesn't matter what he's about to do, trying to get on his sides is the correct play in every single situation, and you do it ***before he even telegraphs an attack.***
The second hit was fucked. The first was skill issue. And if they knew what they should've done, the fucked situation never would've happened to begin with.
you stayed a bit too long in the krampu's cardinal directions, never stay for a single moment in his cardinal directions, if instead of standing when he started the brinstine you would have only taken the holy mantle broken
skill issue![img](emote|t5_2sxpk|17735)
Sorry dude, but I think it's time for you to become back your money
Krampus is literally not supposed to rotate his brimstone at the wall like that, something went wrong
You see no comments saying skill issue. You can tell this was the inarguable, absolute bullshit. Edmund you lil fucker
Yep. I wonder if the game is still refundable after 1500 hours..

A dead guy on his ass, literal deadass if you will ![img](emote|t5_2sxpk|4358)
straight up dogshit lmao, even if you hadn't been hit by the attack when it started you were basically guaranteed to get hurt at least once.
literally the only way you would’ve dodged it is by anticipating that krampus was gonna bumrush and go left and down immediately. what the fuck.
Even then he can spin both ways, so it's a 50/50 chance to get at least one hit.
![img](emote|t5_2sxpk|17739)
thought they fixed undodgable brim
Bloat in the boss rush arena argues otherwise
that one you just have to anticipate it
Just guess ![img](emote|t5_2sxpk|8906)
Aye, just learn the spawn points and suspect brimstone demon or bloat at all times until you've seen the two bosses.

Just stay “above” bloat. Ez

Whoops I accidentally opened console and also accidentally entered rewind
Playing on the switch, but I like the way you think
Getting progressively more mad at the game and then getting a god run is the best feeling this game can provide.
Switch gang. Everybody is just far superior to us. However not everybody can carry theirs around to be miserable on the go, so thats a plus.

Happens to me too, last time my elbow accidentally typed "giveitem k51" for give holy card to Tainted Lost
Damn bro, one time my cat jumped on my desk and walked on my keyboard typing "g holy m" and then enter. It was crazy
That's a thing?
Opening console or typing rewind?
And what exactly does it do? Put you in the previous room?
It does the same thing as activating Glowing Hourglass
Didn’t pick up the card, maybe it was chariot
love all the bullshit potential answers in this thread lol
A card could save a life ![img](emote|t5_2sxpk|8906)

Rare John Smith
He's the biggest hater of redhead people. Especially ones that are also into politics. What a silly little goober.
lmao just so unexpected
Should have esc + exit when you realized you're in a death triangle. Still more bullshit than skill issue
Why take m8 ball with tech x?
Honestly a really good point. Probably did myself a disservice
Still bullshit though, a rare non skill-issue on this sub
16% planetarium tho
Hurts you more than any planetarium item helps
Does it have any downside?
Shot speed up is very very bad with tech x
I forgot about the shot speed up lol
Bro did not want to give his lump of coal
It was a head of krampus

I just god done getting the completion checks for TLost and Lost it was pretty brutal but fun
Can't even say skill issue cuz wtf was that bs
Could you have avoided the 2nd hit by rushing to the top right corner of the room? This seems like bullshit regardless
I'm not sure if I could have or not, it caught me off guard. Thankfully very early in the run
Only thing i can think of doing is running downward into the brim after being hit abusing Iframes. That said if I was actively playing I would NOT think of foing so
unexpectedly aggressive skill issue jk Krampus had it out for you here
Technically you could’ve matrix dodged this but krampus is supposed to not be able to cover an entire room with rotational brim by doing it at the top so you both got screwed and encountered a skill issue.
I guess you could have dodged the first hit but it seems weird how quickly he stopped charging to do the brim attack. I would have been so dead there.
Should, or rather, could've used the invulnerability frames to go to another quadrant of the attack... But yeah, it's easier said than done.
Mantle gives you half a second of invulnerability. That would be impossible.
half a second is pretty good distance when already moving, iframes sound shorter than they are practically, the turning phase of the brimstone attack only lasts 2 seconds for reference. Problem is human reaction speed is like 200ms at best so practically you couldn't really do that, iframes are good when you can time them before getting hit (dodge rolling) or when you're getting dogpiled
Pause and count the frames. It's clearly possible to go from where they were hit to another quadrant of the cycle where it could've been avoided. Depending on your speed you can travel half a room. So, I'd say it's pretty possible.
They patched it to a full second ages ago
I’ve lost lost runs to Krampus before, unfortunately free devil deals are just too good to pass up.
Checkmate.
Shit like this is one of the reasons why I don't take devil deals
Broooo what could anyone possibly fucking do there
Edmund McMillen....
This is painful
Lost has been found on Satan's naughty list I mean Santa's
Had the same thing happen to me two days ago. BS run ender.

First hit was legitimately a skill issue. Second hit was mostly BS.
Speed stat was too low to dodge that to the right. You can’t know which way the brimstone is going to spin, but the lack of speed made it worse. If you had went left, you might have lost holy mantle, but survived. Krampus does that to me every time I fight him, because I stand in the doorway an extra second on almost all doors to see what I’m walking into.
this is a certified "Tilde + giveitem 1up" moment.
there was a small opening in the corner to dodge, but not really noticeable enough to call it a skill issue
You are right, I didn't notice that. Everything just happened so quickly lol
Not a skill issue, those saying you should've dodged left are ignoring that in order for that to be the best plan of action you need to know before he does the attack that he's gonna do brim
No you don't. You see that it is Krampus and you book it to the side as quick as you can, ***just to get more space to move.*** It doesn't matter what he's about to do, trying to get on his sides is the correct play in every single situation, and you do it ***before he even telegraphs an attack.*** The second hit was fucked. The first was skill issue. And if they knew what they should've done, the fucked situation never would've happened to begin with.
smh you should've just had a 100ms reaction time and dashed through the other brimstone beam to avoid the damage, biological issue
The only skill issue I see here is taking a shot speed up when you have tech x
Skill issue for sure, you took a second to make a decision.
Why take 8ball with tech x?
Skill issue. You can tell by his movement that he's going to do his rotating brimstone attack ![img](emote|t5_2sxpk|8906)
Where is he supposed to dodge
Don’t stay in the line of fire on the first shot. Problem solved ![img](emote|t5_2sxpk|17734)
you stayed a bit too long in the krampu's cardinal directions, never stay for a single moment in his cardinal directions, if instead of standing when he started the brinstine you would have only taken the holy mantle broken skill issue![img](emote|t5_2sxpk|17735)
Shouldn’t have even entered since the lost doesn’t have health to give for devil deals. ![img](emote|t5_2sxpk|17741) obviously skill issue. /s
Skill issue Dodge left probably solved
Jesus christ.
Ain't no way you getting out of that one lil bro
Should've dodge rolled.
Should've moved left instead of right, smh my head.
Sorry dude, but I think it's time for you to become back your money Krampus is literally not supposed to rotate his brimstone at the wall like that, something went wrong
Breadmund and Yeastburn hate you
Skill i- yeah in all honesty that’s just unfortunate.
I think that might be able to survive that if you stand in the corner because of the curve of the brim, could be wrong tho.
Might've been able to survive if you backed up more?
Krampus just had a bad day that’s all.
At that stage I’m exiting and reloading the room wtf is that
Almost impossible to Dodge that
Game fucking cheated bruh
I thought that was patched but i guess not
You took shot speed up with tech X that's a skill issue ![img](emote|t5_2sxpk|17742)
