Act 2

[Whitey]

Not gonna lie...after all that it took to finish the first act I'm not ready for building my own deck and doing it all over again in pixelated form. I already have vision problems, trying to go from clear lettering and dark atmosphere to pixels and brightness....just not fun anymore.

The good news if you did want to see the rest of the game (cause it does change again and while it doesn't get quite as dark and atmospheric as the start it does go back to a slightly more act 1 style as well) is that Act 2 is actually the shortest act, and if you already levelled it up in act 1 you will find that the trader in leshy's cabin in act 2 will also sell your ouroboros card, with any buffs it already had in act 1, for 8 foils which can allow you to steamroll most of the already short act 2.

Eh, never once did I even come across an ourroboros in act 1.

ah, well, it will still be available. You will just have to buff it yourself, which can actually be a bit easier in act 2 if you build a deck with enough sacrifices (if you would like to know how that one works: Ouroboros starts as a 1/1 card with a 2 blood cost and the unkillable sigil, which seems horrible. Except that every time it dies/gets sacrificed/smashed with hammer it will also get a permanent +1/+1 to it's stats (that it will keep for the entire game and it can indeed be found in all acts, though it is more hidden in some than others).

That is also not the only option you will have available to use either. There are a few cards that you can make absolutely broken in act 2. To such an extent that there is an achievement for dealing 666+ damage in one turn and for most, that is obtained here. Ouroboros just happens to be one of the first/easiest ones and it often doesn't rely on the use of another card or cards in order to be completely broken, while other tactics do.

Thanks for the info. I've just never been a big fun of deck-building. I like the idea of card games. Hand of Fate was fun. But deck building? Too much work for me.
