Confused

[seija kijin]

I just defeated Mega Satan, and got the save slot says The End. But I didn't even defeat mom's heart 9 times? I was doing a normal run, and had tons of HP, so I went into the self sacrifice room. It teleported me to the Dark Room, and I fought The Lamb. I said yes to a victory lap, and it said Angels were unlocked. I went back to the self sacrifice room and the angels dropped key pieces this time, and I went back to the Dark Room and killed Mega Satan. I haven't beaten any challenges, gotten Judas or Blue Baby, Lilith, or the Keeper. I was just wondering, since I have barely done anything in the game, defeated Mom's heart 3 times and didn't kill Isaac, How did I manage to get to the Mega Satan fight?

If you use a Sacrifice Room at least 11 times at the same floor, the following 3 things will always happen at a fixed number of sacrifices made:

1: You'll get the "You Feel Blessed" effect. (Regardless, wether you took a devil item or not, the next time you would get a Devil Room, it's an Angel Room instead, unless you have Goat Head)

2: Gabriel fight (always drops the first Key Piece)

3: Uriel fight (always drops the the second Key Piece)

Now, for the 12th sacrfice and beyond, you will have a 50/50 chance to get teleported directly to the Dark Room. Since you automatically get all the keypieces in the process, you can always fight Mega Satan (or The Lamb), if you use a Sacrifice Room 12+ times.

Sacrifice Rooms have a chance to teleport you to the Dark Room after 12 or more sacrifices, even if you haven't defeated Satan or gotten the Negative. Beating The Lamb unlocks the Angels and Key Pieces, and if the Angels drop the Key Pieces again and you teleport to the Dark Room, the key pieces will unlock the golden door and you can fight Mega Satan.

Thank you. I was just wonderig why the game would let me fight him so early, with half the game uncompleted. Thank you, though!

I don't know if its still possible, but a long time ago you could use shovel or error room to go to the next zone instead of going in the chest and ending your run. I beat rebirth having killed mom only twice.
