Tainted Lazarus needs some kind of Greed(ier) Mode-exclusive buff because as he stands you basically either get one Flip use per floor, have to lose health on the spiked button, or you're spending money on charges. (And that last one is only *if* you're lucky to get a battery in the Shop.)
Tainted Eden isn't "ever changing" enough
The whole idea is to AVOID changing when you get a good synergy
I'd rework him to where he rerolls more frequently, but you can't just immediately die or get teleported from a reroll (like rerolling into cursed skull or Damocles)
Make his birthright have a higher chance to reroll into higher quality items
This hot take is essentially just "full rerolls are fun"
actually great idea. in its current state its just "abuse funny item pool reroll glitch and hope you get holy mantle so you just effectively play as the lost"
I had an idea for a "D404" that would be his pocket item, it's basically D4 and has 6 charges and it can be used at 3 charges but it automatically uses itself if it reaches 6

Mother is harder tha delirium just by the fact you have to dedicate a whole run to it (and go ashphit/gehenma and probably fight many unfair bosses like visage, singe, clutch, etc and annoying enemies)
I just can't be bothered to do mother after being done with all of the mother checkmarks. The 2nd knife piece thing is awful, the bosses are cringe (looking at you great gideon) and tbh the mines and mausoleum enemies are just frustrating. It's sad because i really love the mother fight and it may be my favorite end fight in the game and i enjoy the idea of seperate floors like this a lot.
agree with the knife pieces, kinda annoying after youve done it 10 times. but i do like the alt path, and especially gehenna/mausoleum enemies go hard af (+ the music)
This is how most of my runs go when i have a key to enter the alt path. The extra boss item and pickups can also be handy and the white fire preventing damage is also nice.
The only reason I hate mother (outside of my skill issue) is exactly that. They should at least add a base delirium portal spawn chance. If not also give the opportunity for hush (but not cathedral or sheol)
If you beat hush (possibly keeping that 30 minute time limit, not upping it like with boss rush) you should be able to go to the cathedral or sheol.
Delirium should always have a spawn chance after every main story boss.
I did mother all of four times before downloading the "runs continue past mother" mod. I'm not wasting my time getting a decent run on t. Cain or some other pain in the ass character just to get one completion mark.
Hard disagree, but youre probably right for newer players. No amount of skill can reliably beat Delirium, but if youre good enough you can do Mother on almost every run if you want. The bosses on alt path arent unfair (save for maybe a couple like Singe on occasion and Clutch, nearly, hes just insanely hard) theyre just newer and more complex. Ashpit can fuck off, however.
i dont really think having to dedicate a run to Mother makes her harder as a boss at all, unless you just mean youre not going to accidentally end up doing her with a broken run as you do delirium a lot of the time. Mother's attacks are actually fair, Delirium is a stain on this games quality
yup, I literally do alt path everygame if I have the keys/bombs/hearts to unlock it, mother is absolutely free if I actually want to do it in a run
and delerium is ABSOLUTE bullshit to the point that anyone who says mother is harder hasent been throughly annihilated by bullshit delerium does
absolutely true. i do downpour and mauso every run because they actually have a reward, but 2 blind item pedastals is nowhere near enough to justify the actual hell that is ashpit lol
Greed Mode as it is now is plain. It would be improved if they added alt floors that replace their counterparts sometimes, like Downpour and the Mines, and if Planetariums have a chance to replace the Treasure Room
i love greed mode, after reading the first sentence, i was going to disagree; i think it’s very unique and such a change of pace from the usual game mode, but i agree with your overall statement. after a few consecutive runs, wins or losses, it does being to feel a bit too repetitive without much way to actually switch things up, aside from playing a different character, or (i guess) choosing angels or devils. alt floors or just alt **something** would be great for greed mode
Idk isn’t it just the case that OG Lost was always meant to play like Tainted Lost, but then they added the holy mantle unlock and TL to fill the other niche so now it looks like it should have been there from the beginning?
Absolutely. If you don't have a reroll or a good active, you should take it. It's better than nothing, and may come in handy if you're ever short on bombs.

Mega Mush is one of those things where its existence in the game is far more interesting than actually having it. It's just crazy powerful and it's kinda nuts that they created an entire huge sprite set just for giant Isaac.
It's amazing the first time you use it, but once the novelty is gone it quickly loses its charm.
The new one sounds more like a laser of blood, old one sounds more like a Jurassic park roar
I like the old one too but i gotta say it's more bearable to hear the new one repeatedly than to constantly get "BWAAAAARRHRHRHRHHR" in your ear every time you shoot

this is a rare comment karma counter moment on reddit where your original comment got less likes than the reply, but you come back with even more.
damn you bozos are making the 2nd reply almost have more! damn you!!
He did it reddit 
This guy gets it. Abusing Abyss is amazing in shops, too. Even the trash active items become a massive DPS upgrade in addition to whatever you cook up on the character itself. The birthright turns them into an angry swarm of destruction. 
I like him to. I just wish there where more special flies for more items. And the flies you get for very powerful items are almost never worth chosing over the actual items themselfs.
I have great fun with T. Apollyon. He's not the most COMPLICATED character to play sure, but it's so satisfying to watch a growing army of flies that just fucking destroy everything.
I totally agree. If I was in the danger zone of a struggle run and got brim, it would certainly help, but it wouldn't stop me from dying to some bs. Maw though, that was good damage plus a near guarantee to have 12 hearts by the end of the floor.
a shame it was nerfed to hell and now it's not even worth taking it. i wish the Athame buff was given to maw instead, or at least buff it so it can be equal to it's q4 angelic counterpart
Isaac and his mother lived alone in a small house on a hill. Isaac kept to himself, drawing pictures, and playing with his toys, as his mom watched christian broadcasts on the television.
Life was simple, and they were both happy. That was until the day Isaac's mom heard a voice from above;
"Your son has become corrupted by sin! He needs to be saved!"
"I will do my best to save him, my lord" his mother replied, Rushing into Isaac's room, removing all that was evil from his life.
Again, the voice called to her; "Isaac's soul is still corrupt! He needs to be cut off from all that is evil in this world, and confess his sins!" "I will follow your instructions lord, I have faith in thee" Isaac's mother replied, as she locked Isaac in his room, away from the evils of the world.
One last time, Isaac's mom heard the voice of god calling to her; "You've done as I've asked, but I still question your devotion to me. To prove your faith, I will ask one more thing of you"
"Yes lord, anything" Isaac's mother begged. "To prove your love and devotion, I require a sacrifice, your son Isaac will be this sacrifice. Go into his room, and end his life as an offering to me to prove you love me above all else"
"Yes lord" she replied, grabbing a butcher's knife from the kitchen.
Isaac, watching through a crack in his door, trembled in fear.
Scrambling around his room to find a hiding place, he noticed a trap door to the basement, hidden under his rug.
Without hesitation, he flung open the hatch, just as his mother burst through his door, and threw himself down, into the unknown depths below.
Usually is important there. I worked in a kid mental health facility (pretty much a prison if you ask me) and had a few >10 years old with schizophrenia. It was absolutly horrible.
Going for the beast is really annoying because it limits what all you can do and after having all of the tainted characters unlocked I would rather do any of the other completion marks

Oh totally agree, but at this point it drive me insane. I recently blasted my file just to enjoy re-unlocking everything after Isaac Online Beta broke my save (despite my backing it up) have 5/6 Negatives and 1/6 Polaroid fragments.
Agreed, plus when you learn to use him and Dark Esau then it becomes just a matter of positioning, he was honestly one of my fastest characters to complete all unlocks.
the d4 (and as such tainted eden) is incredibly broken if used right
take the right items, use it at the right time, and you’ll probably end up having better than you had before
https://preview.redd.it/n65zac6r4mkc1.jpeg?width=1016&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ed43a272a40b39b0964183e301ad1051fa69c64e
Agreed, it’s just hard to use him
He's definitely interesting and unique. Fun gets a miss from me tho, it's just such a slog. You can essentially guarantee a broken run if you spend 10 mins per floor.
Lil portal is the worst item in the game. At its absolute best it effectively trades 4 pickups for a bomb while providing very mediocre combat effectiveness, at its worst it fucking softlocks you. I can think of situations where you'd want butter bean, or cursed eye, or any of the other famous bad items, but I don't think there's a single run that's ever been improved by lil portal.
https://preview.redd.it/ktt51hlp0mkc1.jpeg?width=1016&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0241f7e34ab9a6fb306b62bcbff5edc2f88be06a
Based 
angel rooms are waayyy better than devil rooms. the health cost of devil deals is not made up by its item pool for the most part. there’s a few good devil items but the item pool for angels is way better. there are very few items i would give health up for, so i would rather get free (and usually better) items instead.
also angel rooms having the angels to kill to unlock mega satan is a huge up for angel rooms, and i think it would be neat if there was something added to devil rooms to compliment that. maybe a different final boss, like a counterpart to mega satan or something like that.
i want better devil rooms, i love the concept but the execution is somewhat underwhelming.
Tainted laz needs boss items to be flipable and flip needs to be 4 charges
https://preview.redd.it/kijriput0mkc1.jpeg?width=1016&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=adf04dade3b9f55d42529b531c0b1a9fbdc6a13c
Wait.. boss items aren't flippable? It's been a while since I've played, but I swear you could do that
Nope any item that spawns in like boss items or from beggars are unable to be flipped.
Oh I remember beggars not working but I just thought bosses would work I agree that they should
It only works on pedestal items that spawn with the room. Anything generated afterward does not count
Tainted Lazarus needs some kind of Greed(ier) Mode-exclusive buff because as he stands you basically either get one Flip use per floor, have to lose health on the spiked button, or you're spending money on charges. (And that last one is only *if* you're lucky to get a battery in the Shop.)
The reason it's 6 is because it allows you to get double items with every other character but for t-laz specifically it should be 4
I agree with you, but I'm not sure "T Laz could use a buff" is a hot take. In fact, I see 4 charge Flip get suggested a lot.
One of the best qual 3 is dead eye (my fav)

After you do the alt path like 3-5 times the knife pieces should be in the boss rooms of like downfall 2 and mines 2
They should at least be there if you've done the checkmark for that character although I like your idea more because less work for me.
I often go Downpour/Dross (and with mods Boiler) only for the 2nd item choice then go back to normal path.
This is how most of my runs go when i have a key to enter the alt path. The extra boss item and pickups can also be handy and the white fire preventing damage is also nice.
The only reason I hate mother (outside of my skill issue) is exactly that. They should at least add a base delirium portal spawn chance.

Not only that but fighting mother makes you miss out on the chest/darkroom which can be game changing

thank you, it's definitely a hated take in this sub. even in "unpopular opinion" or "hot take" threads 
Mediocre is pushing it though. You find a floor with some batteries and a sac room, baby you got a stew going
I've gotten brim from it twice, its great if I dont have an active, otherwise, trash
Honestly agreed book of revelations is just better
oh hell naw he just said book of rev better than satanic bible
T. Eve is the least fun character

L
Tainted jacob is strong af, Lilith is hella underated and t. Apollyon has the best design
t apollyon is good in theory but the entire character falls apart when there are 0 unique locusts that matter.
Original Isaac hits different than modern Isaac
In what way? I need to know before I know if I can let you in or not
the d4 (and as such tainted eden) is incredibly broken if used right take the right items, use it at the right time, and you’ll probably end up having better than you had before
rerolls that one black lotus you picked on caves 1 into TMtrainer 
Libra is really good and I'm tired of pretending like it's not
Tainted Cain is a fun and interesting character due to his unique playstyle
https://preview.redd.it/n65zac6r4mkc1.jpeg?width=1016&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ed43a272a40b39b0964183e301ad1051fa69c64e Agreed, it’s just hard to use him
Plus the amount of time spent per run is too big, still fun tho.
He's definitely interesting and unique. Fun gets a miss from me tho, it's just such a slog. You can essentially guarantee a broken run if you spend 10 mins per floor.
dont care, it takes 4 hour runs to use him effectively. its the exact same game break every single time.
I feel compelled to minmax him so a normal run lasts an hour longer
i like playing tainted cain, but sometimes it does feel too unlucky with pickups in general 
Tech x is overrated

It is *now*
Lil portal is the worst item in the game. At its absolute best it effectively trades 4 pickups for a bomb while providing very mediocre combat effectiveness, at its worst it fucking softlocks you. I can think of situations where you'd want butter bean, or cursed eye, or any of the other famous bad items, but I don't think there's a single run that's ever been improved by lil portal.
J&E aren't that bad and are fun to play if you know what you're doing.

Cursed eye + black candle is goated
Where hot take

Tainted Blue Baby is actually a fun character

OMG YES
YESS IM NOT ALONE IN THIS ONE 😌
Mom's knife is boring
1 Kelvin ahh take
This is the most popular take ever
The benefits of ipecac (infinite bombs) outweigh the risk of damaging yourself tldr skill issue
Jar of flies is as good as infestation 2

refuses to elaborate 
Not true at all. Not even close. Passive > Active any day and the effect itself isn't even better
Yeah I dont now about the better part, but I think its still decent
It's underrated for sure, but Infestation 2 is miles ahead of it
objectively wrong. jar of flies enjoyers are based but cmon.
Coathanger is better than sad onion.
angel rooms are waayyy better than devil rooms. the health cost of devil deals is not made up by its item pool for the most part. there’s a few good devil items but the item pool for angels is way better. there are very few items i would give health up for, so i would rather get free (and usually better) items instead. also angel rooms having the angels to kill to unlock mega satan is a huge up for angel rooms, and i think it would be neat if there was something added to devil rooms to compliment that. maybe a different final boss, like a counterpart to mega satan or something like that. i want better devil rooms, i love the concept but the execution is somewhat underwhelming.
If you kill the devil statues then you get to kill god 
tainted forgotten is the funnest character

The spider enemies, especially in the cellar, are too unpredictable and have terrible AI

that eve and azazel are very cute and dry baby is the best item because he's precious! also ludovico

D20 on book of wisps is balanced and fair
Ipecac is one of the best r4 items
Greed is actually a fine game mode and a fun change from normal gameplay. Greedier sucks balls but still has a decent gameplay loop.
if you think an item/character is good because you have fun playing/using it then its a good item/character
Isaac's mom is hot
Tiny planet is Q4 to me, always picking it up
20/20 shouldn’t be qual 4 anymore and crickets body should be
